"Chen Yu, how much is the alliance fee for your family's Hot Pot Restaurant?"
"What, have you thought it through?"
"Just asking, just asking."
Yang Bin looked at Chen Yu and asked weakly.
"Well …"
Chen Yu thought for a moment. "We won't be joining for the time being. We might consider opening a direct store."
"Direct store?"
Gao Tian, who was standing on the side, interjected, "Chen Yu, a direct store is too expensive. Where does your family have so much money?"
Everyone studied economics, so they were very clear about the alliance and direct store models.
Joining only charged a joining fee and didn't even require the renovation of the store. This was the easiest and easiest way to make money.
A direct store was much more difficult. Not only did it require a huge sum of money, but it also required a lot of manpower and resources.
At the same time, it was riskier than joining the alliance.
"We'll think about the money later. But the alliance model isn't good for Hot Pot Beauty, or rather, it has too many shortcomings. As you can see, Hot Pot Beauty's main specialty is service. If it's an ordinary alliance and the other franchisees aren't able to meet the strict requirements of headquarters, it'll have a huge impact on the entire hot pot restaurant's brand. "
"That's true."
Yang Bin nodded.
"Of course, if you really want to join, there are other ways."
Although Chen Yu refused, seeing how disappointed the three of them were, Chen Yu said, "We can join in another way. For example, you can join Hot Pot Beauty, but the store's renovation, location, operation, ingredients … everything has to be 100% arranged by headquarters. "
"Chen Yu, that's too strict. Then what's the point of joining in?"
"Yes, as long as you put in a sum of money, you can share the profits with headquarters."
"Well …"
Once he said that, the three of them understood.
This alliance could be considered an alliance, but it wasn't the same as an ordinary alliance.
Not only could this alliance quickly expand the market, it could also control the branches.
But the disadvantage was that this alliance was too strict, and the franchisees had almost no control.
This might dampen the franchisees' enthusiasm and be detrimental to promotion.
"Does that mean we won't be able to manage the branches?"
"In principle, yes, but we have the right to make suggestions. However, we still have to follow headquarters' requirements. "
"This …"
"It's fine. There's no need to make a decision now. Anyway, Hot Pot Beauty has no plans to open branches for the time being. You can take a look first. If you feel good, you can join us. If you don't feel good, you can choose not to join us. "
Although they were classmates, they lived in the same dormitory.
Of course, Chen Yu wouldn't abandon his principles just because he was a former classmate. Of course, Chen Yu wouldn't abandon his principles.
The reason why he did this was not to make things difficult for Yang Bin and the others. It was completely for the company and also for the franchisees.
On the other hand, it was also to ensure that Yang Bin and the others could earn money.
Otherwise, if the franchisees were to mess around, it wouldn't be good for anyone.
The competition in the food and beverage market was too great. Without a strict business mindset, one would definitely be eliminated by the market.
Even though Chen Yu had countless experiences from the later generations, he did not dare to be careless.
After chatting with Yang Bin and the others, Chen Yu called Xie Zhang.
He instructed Xie Zhang to arrange some people to hype up the hot pot beauty.
That's right.
Huanyu Technologies had gained the support of many netizens because it had established a relationship with the major game guilds in the country. Originally, these netizens were here to play games. However, a large number of players also had a lot of spare time in addition to playing games. This extra time could be used to look at the web, watch movies, browse Tieba, or flock to hype up a certain topic … It was also because there were so many players that Huanyu Technologies formed the first batch of online ghostwriters in the country.
Zhang Jianming was in charge of this batch of online ghostwriters. However, Zhang Jianming was in charge of more and more things. Later on, he handed it over to Xie Zhang.
Of course, Hot Pot Beauty did not belong to Huanyu Technologies. It was not appropriate for Xie Zhang to lead the ghostwriters to hype up Hot Pot Beauty. However, Huanyu Technologies was not listed at the moment. It did not need to be responsible for others, nor was it subject to others' supervision. Basically, Chen Yu had 100% of the shares. Therefore, such a problem did not exist for the time being.
"Yang Bin, do you want to play Fantasy Westward Journey?"
"Nope."
"Are you still thinking about joining us? Don't think too much about it. If you have time in the future, come and play a few rounds. I just created an account. Let's team up and play for a while."
After the call, Chen Yu pulled Gao Tian and Guo Haiyang over.
The three of them were originally thinking about joining the company, but Chen Yu was right; it would take a while for them to decide if they wanted to join the company.
Moreover, Hot Pot Beauty had no plans to join them for the time being, so they put this problem aside for the time being and played games.
"Chen Yu, aren't you very serious in class? Why are you thinking of playing games?"
Compared to other companies that did activation codes, Huanyu Technology never did activation codes.
It wasn't that they didn't want to, but that they were afraid of being scolded.
What's more, the reason for the internal testing of the activation code was to promote muscle hunger and stimulate the popularity of the game.
But Huanyu Technologies' games were already very popular, and did not need the stimulation of an activation code.
Later, Chen Yu told the company not to use an activation code for the internal test.
At that moment, the four of them had created accounts. After completing a few novice missions, they teamed up.
"You're serious in class, but why are you still so serious after class? You should play when it's time … Hey, we've teamed up with a girl. She doesn't look like a transvestite. Let's hook her up later."
Chen Yu chose Tang Dynasty and spoke as he operated the game.
Fantasy Westward Journey was very simple and relaxing. After teaming up, they just had to hand it over to the captain.
If they ran into some mobs, they just had to fight them for 24 rounds, but if they ran into bosses, they needed special skills to restrain them. Thus, it was very easy for them to play in a team, and they could chat as they operated the game. In particular, there was a girl in the team. Because she was present, Yang Bin and the others chatted even more enthusiastically.
"Hello, girl. I'm Yang Bin."
"May I ask how old you are?"
"Girl, why aren't you saying anything?"
"Don't be afraid. I'm not a bad guy."
Yang Bin and the others chatted in the channel from time to time. In the end, the girl who had been added couldn't help but say, "If I take it out, it'll be bigger than yours …" The four of them instantly vomited blood.
"Chen Yu, and you still say you're not a transvestite."
"How would I know? He doesn't have transvestite written on his face."
"Alright, alright. It's fine if you're a transvestite."
Although Fantasy Westward Journey was quite suitable for girls, girls were still in the minority.
It was very normal to meet a transvestite.
Yang Bin and the others didn't mind. Even if the person opposite them was a transvestite, they still chatted happily with him.
"Transvestite brother, why did you change from Big Talk to Fantasy Westward Journey?"
"At first, it was because this game was very popular, so I played it for a while. Later, I realized that this game wasn't simple."
"How is it not simple?"
"Did you guys realize that the lifestyle jobs in this game are too classic?"
So this transvestite brother was transferred from Big Talk to the West.
At first, Transvestite brother didn't like Fantasy Westward Journey and thought that it was a plagiarism. However, after playing it, he realized that although Fantasy Westward Journey looked the same as Big Talk to the West, many settings were completely different. For example, the vitality settings. Because there was a limit to the vitality value, it could only be recovered after a long time. This also made the entire game more diverse. Especially for lifestyle jobs, such as pharmacists, chefs … etc.
In fact, Journey to the West also had Lifestyle classes. However, some of the Lifestyle classes in Journey to the West were superficial.
Many players played lifestyle jobs as a side character, but in Fantasy Westward Journey, lifestyle jobs were a major feature.
Simply put, even if you didn't level up or fight, you could still focus on being a lifestyle player.
"To tell you guys the truth, I've decided to focus on lifestyle jobs."
"No way, lifestyle jobs are just support jobs. They're not that useful."
"Although he's support, I've carefully researched this lifestyle job. I realized that the entire game can't be separated from lifestyle jobs. Moreover, the entire game's economic system is closely related to lifestyle jobs. "
"Damn, you've researched so much?"
"It's okay, I feel that lifestyle jobs are very promising. I'm thinking that after I've researched it thoroughly, I'll see if I can become a professional merchant."
"Professional merchant?"
"What's that?"
The three of them naturally didn't understand what Transvestite brother was talking about.
However, after hearing what Transvestite brother said, Chen Yu's mouth curved into a smile.
He knew that even if Fantasy Westward Journey didn't need to be hyped up, he would still become popular.
