July 18th, Monday …
Pei Qian came to the office early in the morning. He was in a good mood and even hummed a tune on the way.
He had fooled Teacher Qiao yesterday.
Although it was wrong to fool people, Pei Qian had no choice. He had repeatedly emphasized to Teacher Qiao that there was no problem with the video and asked him to give up, but Teacher Qiao refused to listen!
Pei Qian did not dare to let Teacher Qiao realize it himself. It would be even more unsalvageable if he realized something terrible.
Thus, Pei Qian came up with a plan to drive the tiger to swallow the wolf!
Didn't you want to know how to resurrect this episode of the video?
That's easy, as long as you don't make Products of the Gods anymore and make my Struggle, everything will be fine.
Pei Qian knew very well that Teacher Qiao would definitely over-interpret Struggle after it was released. Another episode of Products of the Gods was a sure thing.
Since that was the case, it was better to take the initiative!
Using a random pointer to exchange for a video that was highly likely to cause Struggle to explode in popularity, it was a huge win!
Moreover, looking at Teacher Qiao's state, he must have taken it seriously.
After all, Boss Pei's words had come true. Oh no, his ability to turn stone into gold was well-known. Tengda's employees and Qiao Liang all believed it without a doubt.
Pei Qian suddenly felt that things seemed to be going smoothly recently. It was like a change of offense.
How delightful!
Pei Qian came to the office and counted the situation of various industries while waiting for Rui Yuchen to arrive.
Fei Huang Workspace, in shock therapy.
Fish-Catching Take-Out, losing money.
Upwind Logistics, losing money.
Fully-Automated Bickering Machine, losing money.
'Top Student, Come Quick' was dying.
Thriller Hostel could make a small profit, but it was not popular. It was still too early to recoup the huge investment.
DGE Esports Club, losing money.
Deposit Fitness seemed to be making more money, but it was still losing money.
Sloth Apartments, losing money.
Counting carefully, there did not seem to be any popular projects in this cycle!
This was an epic victory!
Of course, some departments such as Fish-Catching Internet Cafe, the gaming department, and the website were still making money. However, those were historical problems that could be solved slowly in the future.
What's more, these departments had basically spent all their money. For example, Fish-Catching Internet Cafe was trying its best to open more branches. Even if the internet cafe was making money, it would still take a long time to recoup its losses. In theory, as long as the branches were opened fast enough, they would not be able to generate profits.
Thriller Hostel, which had been in danger time and time again, actually managed to hold on and did not become popular. That was indeed a pleasant surprise. It could be said to be a shot in the arm for Boss Pei.
This was the first time Pei Qian felt that the situation was looking good.
"Du du du."
There was a knock on the door. Pei Qian looked up. It was indeed Rui Yuchen.
He knew that Rui Yuchen would report to him on Monday.
Rui Yuchen handed over the documents in his hand.
"Boss Pei, I'm here to report on Fish-Catching Take-Out's current situation.
"Currently, the Food · Harmony brand has been launched in a few flagship stores. It has a good reputation, but there's a big gap in profits. It seems … it's not easy to promote it."
"As for the branch situation, Fish-Catching Take-Out's branches have already opened in a few representative first-, second-, and third-tier cities. It can be said that we have a rough idea of the various cities.
"From the current data, the popularity of Fish-Catching Take-Out is basically positively correlated with the size of the city. In other words, super-first-tier cities are the most popular, followed by first-tier cities, and third-tier cities are the worst.
"What's more, Fish-Catching Take-Out in the same region seems to be competing for resources."
Pei Qian looked at the information and nodded repeatedly.
The news of victory came one after another!
Food · Harmony was destined to fail. It had a good reputation, but it would definitely not make money.
What made Pei Qian even happier was the situation of Fish-Catching Take-Out.
Pei Qian had asked Rui Yuchen to spend freely before, and Rui Yuchen had lived up to expectations by opening Fish-Catching Take-Out branches all over the country.
The results this time could be seen as a rough idea.
Pei Qian felt that the situation in the information was basically in line with his expectations. Fish-Catching Take-Out was exquisite, healthy, and of high value. It would definitely be more popular in big cities.
That was because there were a large number of white-collar workers and young people in big cities. They did not like to cook and had a demand for healthy food. At the same time, they were not so sensitive to price. They would definitely be very popular with Fish-Catching Take-Out.
There were fewer young people in third-tier cities, and the overall income level was also relatively low. It would not be easy for Fish-Catching Take-Out to become popular.
At the same time, the more Fish-Catching Take-Out in a city, it would further squeeze each other's resources.
That was because there were only so many customers ordering Fish-Catching Take-Out. If two shops were to compete with each other for business, no one would be able to earn more.
Rui Yuchen said, "According to the content of this report, I think we should focus on super-first-tier cities and first-tier cities. At the same time, we should try our best to spread out the shops and blossom more!"
Pei Qian fell into deep thought.
Super-first-tier cities as the main target?
Blossom more?
That obviously would not work. It would definitely be profitable.
Pei Qian thought about it and said, "Open all the new branches in second-tier and third-tier cities in Handong Province, especially Jingzhou. Fill them up!"
Rui Yuchen, "Huh?"
He felt a little dizzy.
I opened branches across the country, collected data, organized it into information, and reported so seriously just now, but Boss Pei did not listen to it?
Or did Boss Pei have a special plan?
No, no matter how Boss Pei planned, he could not go against market research, right?
Pei Qian said again, "That's right, there's also Food · Harmony. Since the reputation is good, hurry up and promote it. Open all Fish-Catching Internet Cafe shops!
"Do it at the current price. You must not discount or reduce it, understand?"
Rui Yuchen opened his mouth and wanted to say something but stopped.
Boss Pei had already said everything. What else could he say …
He could only nod. "Alright, Boss Pei, I'll do it now."
Pei Qian happily put on a small blanket and began to watch dramas as he watched Rui Yuchen leave.
No one else came to ask for instructions until lunch.
Pei Qian was very happy. It seemed to be a good sign.
He was just about to get off work happily when he received a message on his cell phone. It was from Zhang Yuan.
"Boss Pei, we've spent all the budget. The team members are all disheartened and want to go back. Can we go back now?"
Pei Qian could not help but be stunned.
We've spent all the budget?
The team members are disheartened?
The good news simply came one after another!
Although Zhang Yuan did not say why the team members were disheartened, it was easy to guess!
The training schedule of the members of the DGE Club was so unreasonable. They worked out every day and did not have time to play high-end games. It was normal for them to be beaten by professional players from other clubs!
Obviously, the team members had been beaten so badly that their morale had completely collapsed. That was why they wanted to go home.
Of course, they were welcome!
What's more, they had to be warmly welcomed!
Pei Qian counted on his fingers. It was almost the 20th. He could directly arrange to book Ming Yun Private Kitchen and let the team members and some Deposit Fitness branch managers have a big meal together to celebrate.
He had to send a wrong message to everyone:
Boss Pei would not care even if we were beaten in mock competitions, even if the gym suffered losses. He would still treat us to a big meal!
The DGE Club and Deposit Fitness would always be stable as long as everyone could get to this point!
The more Pei Qian thought about it, the more perfect it was. He immediately replied, "Alright, come back! I'll book the nameless restaurant for you to welcome you back! "
…
…
July 20th, Wednesday …
At the DGE Esports Club …
The team members dragged their suitcases back to their respective rooms.
"Ah, we're finally home!"
"The scenery here is still the best."
"I haven't trained well these few days. I feel like I'm growing fat. Shall we go to the gym after dinner?"
"Hehe, don't be sarcastic. I'm going to train until next month …"
Huang Wang lay down on his bed. There was only one feeling: comfortable!
He had been drifting outside for two weeks. If he had to use a keyword to sum it up, it would be disappointment!
Everyone was quite excited when they first left.
They did not have to work out like dogs every day when they were outside.
They could visit those veteran clubs and meet their idols when they were young.
He could have a hearty mock competition with the elites of the other clubs.
They could go to the big city to see the world and experience the prosperity of a big city.
All in all, everyone was full of anticipation for this trip!
However, everything changed when they returned to Jingzhou.
Their habit of working out was broken, and they felt uncomfortable all over.
The veteran clubs were all shabby. They were basically big internet cafes. Their image had completely collapsed.
The players of the other clubs were so weak that they could not bear to look at them. They had to bring Coach Ma along to be able to fight evenly. Coach Ma alone caused more trouble for everyone than the five people on the other side. This mock competition was unbearable.
Shanghai was just so-so. There was no Fish-Catching Internet Cafe or Fish-Catching Take-Out. It was especially difficult to adapt.
In fact, everyone wanted to come back a long time ago because there was really no point in playing mock competitions with these clubs. They were too weak!
However, Zhang Yuan said that they had to spend all their budget.
Thus, everyone could only follow the original plan and crush all the clubs one by one. The result was disappointing. None of them could fight!
They thought that the H4 Club they went to on the first day was just the beginning. They did not expect it to be the peak.
The clubs behind were not even as good as H4!
If not for Coach Ma, they really did not know how they would have ended.
The DGE Club stayed with each club for three days and also tortured them for three days. After three days, they felt that the members of the club were about to collapse and quickly changed to another club.
Just like that, they finally spent all their budget and returned to Jingzhou.
Huang Wang put his luggage away and returned to the training room.
Zhang Yuan had just finished packing and came out.
Huang Wang asked, "Brother Zhang! Is Boss Pei treating us to dinner tonight? This is the first time since the establishment of our club, right? Boss Pei, are you planning to celebrate for us? "
Zhang Yuan thought for a moment. "Most likely. That's right, everyone, be careful not to add too much drama. Boss Pei hates people who ask for credit the most.
"Boss Pei should be very clear about everyone's strength. It is reasonable for us to win consecutively. Don't mention it repeatedly. This will definitely make Boss Pei feel disgusted."
"Huh?" Huang Wang was stunned. "Boss Pei doesn't like people who ask for credit? What should we do, then? "
Zhang Yuan thought for a moment. "Let's all eat quietly tonight. If Boss Pei comes to propose a toast, you must respond enthusiastically. However, don't get carried away and brag about yourself. Be humble and keep a low profile.
"This is a bit of insight that I've gained after working with Boss Pei for so long.
