The gym branch manager handed Lin Canrong a cigarette, but Lin Canrong waved his hand and refused.
"Who took over?" Lin Canrong asked curiously.
A little investigation would reveal that the gym had been open for a few months. Logically speaking, there were many high-end people here, and it was a business district with people coming and going. The gym should be very popular, but it was not profitable!
Who was so stubborn to take over here?
The gym branch manager took a puff of his cigarette and said in surprise, "Eh? Branch Manager Lin, don't you know? Your Tengda! Tengda took over! "
Lin Canrong could not help but be stunned.
Boss Pei took over this gym?
That's right, Boss Pei seemed to be working on a project called 'Deposit Fitness' recently. It was said that the first store seemed to be near the company's headquarters.
Opening a branch so soon?
Business was quite good!
Lin Canrong had felt sorry for the buyer at first, thinking that it was a waste of money. He would probably have to pack up and leave in a few months.
However, Lin Canrong immediately perked up when he heard that it was Boss Pei.
Boss Pei definitely had a way to turn losses into profits!
He built such a huge business district on a whim. How could he not handle a small gym?
No way!
He could just move a small bench to the side and watch Boss Pei operate.
The gym branch manager said happily as he puffed. "Branch Manager Lin, you don't know how happy I was to hear this news.
"I heard some time ago that something big had happened in the fitness industry in Jingzhou.
"It was said that Tengda was entering!
"Everyone was very nervous at that time. Who doesn't know about Tengda? They're rich and overbearing. If they were to start a price war with us, wouldn't our small gyms die on the spot?
"I didn't expect Tengda to have no intention of competing with us at all. It opened its first gym and kept a low profile. I wouldn't have believed that it was so quiet if I hadn't personally come to investigate. It's even quieter than mine!
"After some time, there were no more letters, and everyone was relieved.
"In the end, two days ago, Tengda suddenly started to take over gyms like crazy. They only picked those that had been renovated. They didn't care about performance at all as long as they were renovated!
"You don't know how many gyms are about to close down. They're just waiting to be taken over. All of them are looking forward to it. They're just short of renovating their own gyms to entice Tengda to take over!
"Of course, no one would really do that. What if Tengda doesn't take over the renovations? Wouldn't that be a huge loss?"
"I've been waiting for Tengda's people to come knocking on my door. You don't say, they really came today! Tengda is really rich. You're very straightforward with your quotations. I thought it was quite worth it and transferred it immediately. "
"We'll move out tonight. I reckon that this shop will have a 'Deposit Fitness' sign in two days."
It turned out that the owner of the gym was quite pleased with himself, as if he had escaped from the stock market.
Lin Canrong's interest was piqued.
If it was another gym that took over, Lin Canrong would definitely order a song to die and wait for it to close down.
However, if Boss Pei wanted to enter, there must be a deeper layer of planning!
Furthermore, why did he have to open it near Ming Yun Villas?
Would it be related to Ming Yun Private Kitchen in the future?
Lin Canrong said, "Can you briefly tell me what you think of Tengda's Deposit Fitness?"

May 5th, Thursday …
Pei Qian rushed to Sloth Apartments in a car, feeling a little excited.
After nearly a month of hard work, he could finally move in!
The apartment itself was exquisitely renovated. As the designer, Liang Qingfan was mainly in charge of the soft renovation of the apartment, including the furniture, appliances, smart devices, and so on. Thus, it could be completed in a short period of time.
What's more, Pei Qian had clearly requested that the apartment be renovated in the style of 'four bare walls'. There were even fewer changes that could be made.
Pei Qian planned to take a look. If he was satisfied, he would move in directly.
Moving to a new place was something to be excited about!
Pei Qian and Little Sun got out of the car at the underground garage and took the elevator to the top floor of the building. Liang Qingfan was already waiting in the room.
The anti-theft door of the living room was ajar. Pei Qian pushed the door open and entered.
The first thing he felt upon entering was that it was so spacious! So bright!
The sunlight was unbelievably bright. The fan-shaped living room was bathed in the warm sunlight, making people involuntarily feel lazy.
The first impression that the entire space gave Pei Qian was exactly the same as the rendering he had seen before.
It was extremely spacious, empty, and bright.
Sunlight shone in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, scattering on the smooth, mirror-like floor and reflecting the reflections of a few pieces of furniture.
The dark-colored sofa seemed to be hovering on the clean surface of a lake or floating lightly in the clouds.
The sofa faced a huge television on the wall. There were no wires or sockets. The pure black panel looked like a window to another world.
Pei Qian remembered asking for a game console and various game discs, but he did not see them next to the television.
Pei Qian guessed that they were probably well hidden in the simple, low television cabinet under the television.
Apart from that, there were other pieces of furniture such as tables and chairs. They were also very simple, but one could tell that they were of high quality.
The entire space met Pei Qian's requirements perfectly. It was extremely simple. It could even be said that the four bare walls had just been looted.
Of course, from an artistic point of view, every angle in the living room would make for an impressive piece of work.
The extreme space also brought about extreme wastage at the same time.
Pei Qian could tell that Liang Qingfan was a designer who pursued perfection.
The low television cabinet was the only storage space in the entire living room. There were no other cabinets.
The spacious space without any unnecessary items made one feel comfortable.
Liang Qingfan was standing in the arc of the living room, looking at the scenery outside. He turned around when he heard the door open. "Boss Pei, are you satisfied with this style?"
Pei Qian nodded. "Very satisfied!"
He had to admit that this Designer Liang was a ruthless person.
Pei Qian said that he wanted the four bare walls of the house and that he wanted to save as much furniture as possible. However, he did not think that Liang Qingfan would get rid of functional items such as storage cabinets, coffee tables, and dining tables.
Even if he made the cabinets smaller, he should at least leave one or two, right?
However, Liang Qingfan was really determined to get rid of them!
Pei Qian was very satisfied. It was not easy to find such an obedient designer.
Coupled with the rigid rules of not allowing him to buy furniture and not allowing him to change the layout of the house, he wanted to see who else would want to rent this house!
Pei Qian could not help but feel a little proud. He felt that the Sloth Apartments project was already half a success.
Liang Qingfan said, "Boss Pei, please allow me to introduce to you where the money was mainly spent.
"In order to complete this extreme minimalist style, I had no choice but to cut off many daily necessities. For example, the storage space is completely insufficient for daily use. However, since Boss Pei said that you don't need it, then I won't.
"However, there are some things that cannot be cut, such as the curtains.
"Curtains are necessary for the needs of shading and privacy. However, under this extreme minimalist style, even the simplest curtains would look bloated and distract the host.
"Therefore, I changed all the glass to smart dimming glass. Not only does it have all the characteristics of safety glass, but it is also safe and environmentally friendly. It also has good transparency and daylighting functions. It can isolate ultraviolet and infrared rays and avoid the adverse effects of direct sunlight.
"All in all, this kind of glass can adjust the light transmittance of the glass and the intensity of sunlight in a larger range, making the interior light soft and comfortable. It is very suitable for such an extreme minimalist living environment.
"In addition, in order to achieve the extreme minimalist style in the interior, I hid almost all the visible sockets. The lights are all operated on the smart panels of the transparent glass.
"These smart panels are hidden in every corner of the room. When they are not activated, they are just mirrors. After they are activated, they become touchable panels that can control the brightness of the lights in the entire house. Of course, the same effect can be achieved with a cell phone.
"In addition, the other furniture, home appliances, and even the toilet are all first-tier domestic and international brands. They are definitely carefully selected to achieve a perfect balance in both practicality and artistry.
"Next, let me introduce you to this television. This is the latest 85-inch 4K television produced by a foreign manufacturer. It costs 240,000 yuan. Together with the latest video system, it will provide you with the most perfect gaming experience.
"The purchased game console is hidden in the television cabinet. As long as you take out the controller, you can immediately enter the exciting game world!"
Liang Qingfan coughed lightly. "Of course, I thought that buying such a big television was not practical at first, but Boss Pei, the budget you gave me was really too much …"
Pei Qian could not help but give him a thumbs-up. "Very good.
I am very satisfied with this television! "
Although the price-quality ratio of everything in the room was very poor, there was no doubt that Liang Qingfan had fulfilled Pei Qian's requirements perfectly.
Take this television for example. Although it could be bought for 20,000 yuan in ten years, it was still a very rare item at the moment. There were probably only a few dozen of them in the country.
Pei Qian gave Liang Qingfan a lot of money and at the same time, forced him to decorate the house according to the 'four bare walls' style. He cut down on the number of furniture.
As a result, the remaining furniture and household appliances were all extremely expensive.
To Pei Qian, he really liked this place.
That was because he only had two needs in this place: sleep and entertainment.
What's more, he lived alone.
This extremely simplified living environment did not make his life inconvenient. Instead, because of this minimalist style, the entire environment was pleasing to the eye.
However, this was not the case for other tenants.
Compared to other houses, this house could not accommodate more than two people. There was no storage space, and they were not allowed to buy furniture or change the layout of the room. At the same time, they could only rent it as a whole.
It was only suitable for one kind of person, and that was to live by themselves. They didn't care about the 9,000 yuan monthly rent, and they had to rent it for a long time.
In other words, this space was purely a work of art to be appreciated.
This kind of person was a real nouveau riche. He might have bought more than one house or even lived in a villa. Why would he need to rent this place?
Even if one or two nouveau riches were crazy enough to rent a room, they would definitely be in the minority.
Liang Qingfan said, "Boss Pei, if there's anything else you're not satisfied with, you can make adjustments at any time."
Pei Qian raised his hand. "I'm very satisfied. There's nothing to adjust! You have fulfilled my needs perfectly. This is exactly what I want! "
"Designer Liang, I really admire your design skills. Would you be interested in working at Tengda?"
