It was almost noon after he sent Meng Chang off.
Pei Qian finished his' Food Harmony 'working lunch and took a nap in his office with a small blanket wrapped around him. He felt that he could leave after he sorted out the various departments in the afternoon.
There was only one month left until settlement. The next battle would be a tough one.
Now … he had to conserve his energy. How could he burn money without energy?
However, Pei Qian's cell phone rang not long after he woke up.
It was the person-in-charge of the snack market, Zhang Yahui.
"Boss Pei, I have something to report to you. Up until now, all the preparations for the snack market have finally been completed. We were scheduled to officially open for business the day after tomorrow. "
"I know you're quite busy, so I didn't ask too much about this matter. We're about to open for business. Do you want to come over and take a look and guide us? In case anything goes wrong. "
Pei Qian was planning to get off work at 2 PM. He could only sigh silently after hearing Zhang Yahui's words.
Sigh, looks like I'll have to work overtime again today.
Not long after the establishment of the snack market project, Pei Qian had completely abandoned it. He did not ask about it at all.
On one hand, the reason was that he had too many things on his hands. He did not have the time or energy to pay attention to it. However, more importantly, he felt that this project was not a big problem.
That was because the original goal of this snack market was to poach people from the Cold-Faced Lady …
Previously, the person-in-charge of the Cold-Faced Lady, Qi Yan, had done a series of things in Beijing. She had organized a street food competition and hired outstanding vendors as consultants. She was about to make the Cold-Faced Lady popular again.
It would be terrible if the Cold-Faced Lady became popular.
That was because the Cold-Faced Lady was a fast food model. It could be operated as a chain. If one shop became popular, Qi Yan would definitely open more branches. Once such a model became popular, it would earn too much money!
Pei Qian did not want the tragedy of Fish-Catching Internet Cafe and Fish-Catching Take-Out to happen again.
Thus, he came up with a quick idea and made a prompt decision to set up a snack market. He poached all the outstanding vendors from the Cold-Faced Lady.
That way, without these outstanding vendors on the Cold-Faced Lady's side, the improvement of the taste would be very slow. On the other hand, the snack market could not be operated as a chain. He did not have to worry too much about making money.
After all, no matter how impressive the vendor was? The number of customers they received every day was also limited. The snack market was only so big. No matter how popular it was, could it overturn the heavens?
So? Pei Qian felt that this project was stable.
So-called stability? It's not that it won't be popular, but will it be like the nameless restaurant? Even if it becomes popular, it won't make a lot of money. It was completely within the acceptable range.
Although he had always been a hands-off shopkeeper? But now that it was about to open for business, he had to go and take a look.
It was better to be safe than sorry. It wouldn't take much time to go over and take a look.
Once the problem was discovered? He could also give Zhang Yahui and the others time to make changes before they officially opened for business.
If it was possible? Pei Qian did not mind delaying the opening of the snack market for a week or two. There was still more than a month before settlement anyway. A delay would not affect much. He could even earn less money for a week or two.
After agreeing to Zhang Yahui, Pei Qian drank a cup of coffee to perk himself up. Then he took a taxi straight to the snack market.
…
The journey to the old industrial zone was not very far, but there was a slight traffic jam. Therefore, it took about forty minutes for them to arrive.
Although the driver, Little Sun, was very good at driving, he was stuck in a traffic jam. It still made Pei Qian dizzy.
After getting out of the car, he took a deep breath of fresh air and finally recovered.
"So? A developed city can't not have a subway! "
Pei Qian could not help but feel emotional.
As the provincial capital of Handong Province, a second-tier city? Jingzhou only had a few subway lines at the moment. It was connected to the high-speed rail station, the core business district near the Great Heaven and Earth Shopping Mall, and other key locations with the highest traffic flow.
However, the current subway coverage was still far from enough. The main public transportation method was still buses.
In recent years, Jingzhou's economy and even the entire country's economy had been growing rapidly. The number of private cars had also increased, and the city had naturally become more and more congested.
At the moment, Jingzhou did not have a limit. However, according to the current trend, it would probably not be far from the limit.
In order to ease the traffic, Jingzhou was also planning and building new viaducts and more subway lines.
More than a year ago, Jingzhou had also announced a batch of subway lines. While the efficiency from demolition to construction was very high, there was still a long time before the subway lines were completed no matter how efficient they were.
What's more, this batch of subway lines had nothing to do with Pei Qian.
That was because Pei Qian was very cunning. When choosing locations for physical stores and other projects, he would basically avoid the subway lines, intentionally or unintentionally.
Of course, there was no other way to choose a location for the GPL league. There were only a few large shopping malls in Jingzhou. The only one suitable for long-term competition was the multi-purpose hall in the Great Heaven and Earth.
However, these were not a big deal. In any case, as long as a large project like the Sloth Apartments that involved buying buildings could be far away from Jingzhou's current subway line plans, there would be no problem.
Pei Qian walked into the snack market as he thought about these trivial matters.
However, he was stunned by the scene in front of him after taking two steps.
This place … is a snack market?
Pei Qian had never been to this place before. He had only heard that the snack market was located in an agricultural market in the old industrial zone.
Pei Qian was relieved when he heard the keywords' old industrial zone 'and' agricultural market '.
Just by thinking about it, one could roughly imagine what kind of state it was!
It would definitely be like the vegetable markets in the suburbs of third or fourth-tier cities or small counties. It would be dirty, messy, and bad. The ground might be covered in vegetable leaves.
Of course, to be on the safe side, Pei Qian specially searched for a map of this agricultural market online.
From the pictures, the situation of this place was slightly better than he had imagined. It was relatively clean and hygienic, but it was nothing more than a vegetable market.
Thus, Pei Qian was completely relieved.
He thought that even if Liang Qingfan was an architect and could turn something rotten into something magical, how magical could he be?
However, when he looked up after getting out of the car, Pei Qian almost thought that he had come to the wrong place.
Was the current state of the snack market even a dime similar to the vegetable market from before?
It was completely unrecognizable!
A large number of contrasting neon lights formed by warm and cold colors crawled all over the outer walls. A large number of cyberpunk-style designs made the entire snack market seem to be independent of the entire Jingzhou. It was as if he had entered another world after crossing this street.
All sorts of billboards emitted red and green lights. They were intricate and layered, making use of the space above to the extreme.
However, it was daytime and the sky was only a little gloomy. There was no cloudy sky or rain, so the visual impact of these lights was not very strong.
However, through the current state, he could imagine what would happen at night.
The feeling of cyberpunk was definitely off the charts!
What's more, this setting gave Pei Qian a strong sense of deja vu.
Where did this sense of deja vu come from …
Pei Qian recalled carefully and quickly remembered.
It was the feeling of Tomorrow is Beautiful!
The names of many shops here and the style of the signboards were based on the plot settings of the male and female protagonists in Tomorrow is Beautiful when they came to the surface world to eat. The structure might not be exactly the same but it still gave people an inexplicable sense of deja vu as if they had seen this place before!
These were not the most excessive.
The most excessive thing was that there was a high-tech sports car model at the entrance of the snack market. He did not know where it was made, but the workmanship was quite meticulous. One could even open the car door and sit in it to take pictures.
There were some large electronic toy factories in the country that specialized in these static equipment. From sports cars to tanks, they could be imitated and specially supplied to some amusement park projects.
If the requirements were higher, such as strict requirements for the design of the entire model, appearance, and interior materials, they could also go overseas to customize it.
The price of these big toys was not cheap. They ranged from 200,000 to 500,000 yuan. After all, they had to fly them back from overseas.
This model could not be driven but the cost should be more expensive than some entry-level luxury family car brands.
However, this money was nothing compared to the investment of the entire snack market.
…
Zhang Yahui and Liang Qingfan were already waiting at the door when they heard that Boss Pei was coming.
Zhang Yahui asked in a low voice, "Eh, why isn't Brother Bao here today? Wasn't he always here? "
During this period of time, Bao Xu could be said to have been busy and worried about this snack market.
The division of labor between the three of them was very clear: Liang Qingfan was in charge of the layout and general style of decoration of the entire snack market; Zhang Yahui was in charge of contacting the various vendors and helping them improve the taste of the snacks so that they could prepare in advance, as well as other communication and coordination work; Bao Xu was in charge of perfecting the operating mechanism of the entire snack market and making various requests.
On the other hand, Zhang Yahui and Liang Qingfan agreed that Bao Xu had used his game design concept to inject a soul into the entire snack market.
Bao Xu had put forward many very bold ideas. Many of them were really bold and imaginative. They allowed customers to enjoy the delicious food in the snack market while also obtaining a certain amount of fun.
Bao Xu had contributed so much, but he was not around when Boss Pei came to inspect. It was a pity.
Liang Qingfan said, "In my opinion, Bao Xu does not intend to snatch credit from us."
"I realized that he is actually a rather reserved and low-key person when I was traveling with him previously."
"I'm not interested in money, and I'm not interested in promotion either. Perhaps his only two joys are playing games and traveling. "
"He might say that he does not like to travel at all, but can a person who does not like to travel run out time and time again and still maintain such enthusiasm and vitality?"
