Pei Qian immediately switched on his cell phone and searched for 'Cold-Faced Lady' on Qiandu.
However, he did not find much useful information. It was all content such as "Cold-Faced Lady – Qiandu Encyclopedia", "Cold-Faced Lady's End Myth", "Must Read for Entrepreneurship: Cold-Faced Lady's Business Plan", and so on.
These contents were basically still from a few months ago, and had no effect at all.
"Trash Thousand Degrees!"
Pei Qian complained silently. He decided to be more direct and call Qi Yan, the current person-in-charge of the Cold-Faced Lady!
Pei Qian had been able to avoid too much interaction with the Cold-Faced Lady ever since he took over.
Apart from approving the Street Food Competition, Pei Qian did not give Qi Yan any other clear instructions.
Not only that, Pei Qian had specially asked Rui Yuchen to open a shop opposite the Cold-Faced Lady after he realized that Rui Yuchen's Fish-Catching Take-Out had expanded into Beijing. That was so that Fish-Catching Take-Out could snatch away all the Cold-Faced Lady's customers.
Pei Qian did not allocate more funds to the Cold-Faced Lady and open branches at all. Instead, he maintained the expenses at a low level that a shop needed to operate normally.
Obviously, they had learned from Fish-Catching Take-Out's mistakes.
Back then, Fish-Catching Take-Out had been incurring losses. Pei Qian had been giving it money to expand. In the end, it had expanded to the point where it was about to cover the entire Handong Province. All of a sudden, it was finished because of garbage sorting!
What's more, Pei Qian was very afraid considering the powerful observer effect on him. What if he gave the Cold-Faced Lady a random order and Qi Yan misunderstood it and became popular?
Pei Qian endured it and did not invest in more branches even though the Cold-Faced Lady's shop had been incurring losses.
It had to be said that it was quite difficult to endure.
However, it also meant that Pei Qian had high hopes for the Cold-Faced Lady!
It was precisely because he hoped that this money-burning tree could grow smoothly without any problems that Pei Qian did not dare to give it too much attention.
However, the Cold-Faced Lady that had been left to fend for himself was about to make a comeback now?
How was this possible?
Pei Qian could not accept this at all.
However, Boss Li's message was definitely not sent for no reason. There must be a problem somewhere!
The call was quickly connected.
"Boss Pei? Qi Yan sounded pleasantly surprised. Obviously, she was surprised to receive a call from Boss Pei after so many months.
The background noise of the phone was a little noisy.
There was an electronic voice reminding customers to pick up their food, and the sound of customers walking back and forth and talking. It seemed to be quite busy.
Pei Qian's heart skipped a beat as he realized that there was a huge problem.
Shouldn't the Cold-Faced Lady's shop be very deserted and deserted?
However, it was only sound after all. He had not seen the actual scene. Pei Qian still had a sliver of hope in his heart.
"Cold-Faced Lady … how's the situation?" Pei Qian asked.
It was already past ten in the morning. Qi Yan was in the Cold-Faced Lady's shop. Most of the seats in the shop were already filled, and there was a long line of people queuing up to order. There were also frequent deliverymen from Fish-Catching Take-Out coming to collect their meals.
Qi Yan could not help but feel warm as she looked at the busy scene and heard Boss Pei's question.
Indeed, Boss Pei had not forgotten about the Cold-Faced Lady!
In the past few months, Qi Yan and the employees of the Cold-Faced Lady had often fallen into self-doubt.
The shop did not improve, and the public opinion online did not improve at all. Boss Pei did not assign any tasks to the Cold-Faced Lady either.
Had Boss Pei given up on Cold-Faced Lady? Was it because he had too many businesses to manage?
However, after Rui Yuchen answered Qi Yan's questions, Qi Yan finally understood that Boss Pei had not ignored the Cold-Faced Lady. Instead, he had been silently making arrangements and waiting for the right time!
Now, the snack market had opened. Under the lead of Fish-Catching Take-Out, the Cold-Faced Lady's reputation and reputation had also changed. There were more people in the shop.
Boss Pei had called to ask about the Cold-Faced Lady's situation immediately. What did that mean?
It meant that Boss Pei had been paying attention to the Cold-Faced Lady's situation. He had called to ask, verify, and express his concern once the plan worked!
Qi Yan immediately answered, "Don't worry, Boss Pei. Everything is going according to plan!"
"The traffic in the Cold-Faced Lady's shop has increased significantly since yesterday. It's basically full for the past two days!"
"I interviewed some customers randomly. They all expressed that they were more satisfied with the taste of the new food. It's already very delicious as fast food!"
"What's more, I've prepared a few televisions in the shop to broadcast the documentary 'The Stalls'. At the same time, I've promoted the snack market in Jingzhou."
"All in all, based on the current situation, the Cold-Faced Lady will be able to turn losses into profits very soon!"
It was like a bolt from the blue. Pei Qian did not speak for a long time.
He was very confused.
Didn't he not care about the Cold-Faced Lady at all?
Then how did it suddenly become popular?
How was that possible!
What made him even more speechless was that Pei Qian had never given the Cold-Faced Lady any guidance. Since he had not given any guidance, he naturally did not know what the problem was. He did not know how to earn money, and he did not know where to start …
"Alright."
Pei Qian hung up silently.
Goodbye!
I thought this was a money-burning tree. I was completely wrong about you!
Pei Qian felt a little regretful. If he had known that this would happen, he would have opened a few more shops back then. He would have been able to incur more losses!
However, on further thought, that was not right. If he had opened more shops earlier, wouldn't all these shops be earning money together …
There was only one shop now. No matter how much it earned, it would only earn a few hundred thousand yuan a month from some foreign fast food brands.
After all, while the turnover of fast food restaurants was high, their gross profit margin was relatively low. The costs of raw materials, rent, utilities, and staff salaries were fixed.
Earning a few hundred thousand yuan a month was no longer a problem for Pei Qian, who did not have to worry about lice.
It was nearing settlement. There was no point in fighting to the death with the Cold-Faced Lady. He should make use of the time to look at the businesses that he needed to care about more!
On the other side, Qi Yan looked at the black screen on her cell phone and asked in confusion, "Boss Pei?"
He hung up just like that?
If not for the fact that everything was going well on the Cold-Faced Lady's side, Qi Yan would have thought that Boss Pei was angry.
"As expected, the Cold-Faced Lady turning losses into profits is within Boss Pei's expectations. He just has to ask to understand the situation. There's no need to waste his breath."
"Being able to pick up and let go, this is what a big-minded entrepreneur should be like."
"However, this also means that … everything is within Boss Pei's plan. I thought I did a lot of things, but I did not surprise Boss Pei at all."
"It looks like I have to continue working hard. The Cold-Faced Lady's current level is far from enough to make Boss Pei look at me differently. I should follow Rui Yuchen's instructions and continue implementing Boss Pei's plan. I should continue to manage the Cold-Faced Lady brand and open more shops! "
Qi Yan silently made up her mind.
The talents in Tengda's various departments were too outstanding. First, she got to know Rui Yuchen from Fish-Catching Take-Out. Then, she got to know Zhang Yahui, Bao Xu, and Liang Qingfan from the snack market.
Everyone was much better than her.
She had to work hard to be the person-in-charge of Tengda and live up to Boss Pei's expectations!
…
Pei Qian calmed down a little after hanging up. He went out for brunch and then took a car to Tengda's experience store in Jinsheng Square.
According to the previous arrangements, the big screen outside the experience store should have been completed today. What's more, Jinsheng Square would definitely publicize it. The traffic in that area would definitely increase.
As for what would happen after the upgrade …
Pei Qian did not dare to think about it. He could only go and take a look with his own eyes.
There was a slight traffic jam on the way, which made Pei Qian sigh at Jingzhou's traffic again.
Fortunately, the traffic jam was not very serious. Soon, Pei Qian got out of the car at the entrance of Great World.
Then, he saw a huge crowd of people.
It was like rubbing shoulders with one another!
Many people were wearing the uniforms of various teams in the GPL league, holding support items, and even had team logos printed on their faces. All of them were smiling.
"Which team do you think will win the finals?"
"That goes without saying! It's definitely EK! Jiang Huan will definitely win the championship this time! "
"Sigh, it's a pity that the H4 Club collapsed at the end of the Spring Competition. Otherwise, the Spring Competition would repeat the scene of the international competition. The battle between Jiang Huan and Huang Wang would definitely be very exciting."
"What about you? Which team are you supporting this time?"
"Me? I don't support either team in the finals. I will always support DGE! "
"That's right, no matter who wins the championship, victory will always belong to DGE!"
