Chapter 33 Are You A Fool?
"Brother, you say something. It's not a solution to continue like this. Everyone has gone to their place. And Huanhuanxing has more computers than us. They have 700 computers. Three yuan per hour, and even if they only earn 60 yuan a day, they still have more than 40,000 yuan. We are at least half empty today. Otherwise, we can also hang out a price reduction sign. We also have three yuan! Within two yuan, I heard that several small Internet cafes have become two yuan." Guo Yuanjun said anxiously.
This kid has never seen anything, and he can't think of any good idea. The only idea is to reduce the price. Since you lower the price, I will be cheaper than you. This makes Guo Yuanhang speechless. But he can understand that sometimes, the limitations of his vision, including the level of cultural quality. This cannot be explained clearly in one sentence or two sentences, nor can it be compensated in a short period of time.
Jiang Fei frowned and said, "It is definitely not enough to reduce the price to two yuan. We basically don't have much profit at this price. In the past, we could make one million a month, but once the price drops, our profit will be cut in half!"
Guo Yuanhang glanced at Guo Yuanjun and said, "Save the price! Can you have some brains? Read more books, learn more, learn more from Mingzhe and Feifei, and learn more from Yongzi. Don't know how to play the Red Alert every day. Let me ask you, what if the other party lowers the price to one dollar?"
Guo Yuanjun stammered his neck and said unconvincedly: "Then I will reduce the price to 50 cents!"
Wei Mingzhe glanced at Guo Yuanjun. He was speechless. They were both mothers and compatriots. The gap between the two was really too big. He didn't want to say anything anymore. Guo Yuanjun was a reckless man.
Thinking of this, Wei Mingzhe said slowly: "Our current cost is included in the depreciation cost of computers. Basically, the service life of a computer is three years. On average, plus the salary cost of employees. If the fee is one yuan or five an hour, we can basically have a small surplus. However, the recovery time for computer costs will be extended to three years. If it is 50 cents, we will basically lose money!"
"Three years?" Guo Yuanjun shouted in surprise.
At this time, Guo Yuanhang stopped Guo Yuanjun's urge to speak. His younger brother, for the time being, doesn't understand what the update means, and he doesn't understand how much the computer will fall behind in three years. He may not understand the attractiveness of computer configuration to users.
"Don't worry about him. We won't cut the price. However, we can hold a new event. Member recharges are a big discount, and the activity of applying for membership cards to send online time. Don't be too strong. Just increase the intensity to the previous intensity. For the rest, wait and see what happens." Guo Yuanhang said.
this……
Wei Mingzhe showed a look of embarrassment on his face. He was a little surprised. He originally expected Brother Hang to come up with other good solutions ingeniously. He did not expect that only one member recharged, and it was only for members. This made him a little worried. If there is a cheap online, who would still be willing to come to Tengda Net Garden?
At this time, Jiang Fei was very determined and said, "Okay, Mr. Wei, let's go and make plans. I also need your finance department to calculate the strength for me, so it can't be too high."
This is Jiang Fei's character. Her support for Guo Yuanhang is simply a brain-dead. Guo Yuanhang herself is inexplicable, and she really doesn't know when she let Jiang Fei look at him differently.
In the afternoon, Zhou Yong hurried back from Yuanteng Technology Company. The opening of Huanhuanxing Internet Cafe caused a price war. He couldn't sit still for such a big deal.
As soon as he entered the door, he found Guo Yuanhang and said, "Old Guo, how are you going to deal with this? I think Luo Guangtou is not a good person."
"No hurry, you're here just in time." Guo Yuanhang smiled and said, "Yongzi, please arrange some people quickly. Arrange a few to go to Huanhuanxing Internet Cafe to experience it, Tantan News. The computer brand, configuration, environment, network speed and other aspects are explored."
"Uh, okay. I'll make arrangements now." Zhou Yong was stunned for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
Then he took out his newly bought mobile phone and made a call. At night, Tengda Net Garden was more lively than during the day, and there were more people on the phone. There were a lot of couples outside and there were a lot of girls in the Internet cafe.
At this time, the person who was looking for the news also came back. They were Zhou Yong’s two fellow villagers. As soon as they met, they said, “Brother Hang, Brother Yong, have already investigated it. The total area of Huanhuan Star is about 700 to 800 square meters, divided into two layers. The computer is almost close to each other, so it can only squeeze people. The configuration is not very good. Without an optical drive, it is much worse than that here. More importantly, it is so hot there, and the smoky air is very bad. There is no way, so we can only smoke. Smoking one hand is always more comfortable than smoking second hand smoke.”
Another said, "When I went to the bathroom, I accidentally heard a news from the Internet administrator. It is said that their boss received funding from others, and that person had a grudge against Brother Hang. Originally, Huanhuanxing set a price of four yuan per hour. But later I heard that the boss paid them to reduce the price to three yuan. The boss should not be said to have given 100,000 yuan."
This news immediately made Guo Yuanhang stunned. A shadow of a person immediately appeared in his heart. Looking at the entire Donghe City, the only person who can lose 100,000 yuan this year is to make his own unhappy.
But, 100,000 yuan is just to disgust himself. Isn’t this a fool? Bald Luo is also a fool. I haven’t heard that the price can rise even if it drops. I just cut the price by three yuan just for a mere 100,000 yuan. Can’t even calculate this account?
Of course, this may also be the news that Luo Bangtou deliberately made. If you say this, the bosses of other Internet cafes will not think it is targeting them and will not react.
Just as he was thinking, several people walked in at the door. Hu Yukun took the lead, followed by seven or eight young people. As soon as he entered the door, he saw most of the seats empty in the Internet cafe. Hu Yukun laughed and said, "Isn't this Boss Guo? What's wrong? This business doesn't look very good."
Guo Yuanhang chuckled and stood up. At this time, Guo Yuanjun and others who heard the news were standing behind Guo Yuanhang with a fierce look. They just rushed up and fought.
"Who did I say it is? Someone just told me that a fool gave Huanhuanxing 100,000 yuan for free, just to disgust me. I didn't expect you to come. This is really, I'm saying that a fool, a fool will come." Guo Yuanhang mocked him retorted.
Hu Yukun was obviously stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then sneered: "Do you... think I'm so stupid? A hundred thousand yuan is not a small amount. If you throw it out, you have to hear a sound of water. If you put it in the nightclub, there will be some beautiful women smiling at you. Or do you think I'm really in the brain?"
Guo Yuanhang was speechless. It seemed that his guess was correct. Although Hu Yukun was not very capable, he was not that stupid. He probably heard that he had competitors, so he came here to take a look. Of course, it is not ruled out that Hu Yukun had the idea of entering this industry to compete with him directly.
However, since it wasn't him, there was nothing to say. Guo Yuanhang turned around and left. He ignored Hu Yukun at all.
This made Hu Yukun's face suddenly become awkward. He snorted coldly and said, "Damn it! He also showed off his character in front of me. If he hadn't taken my family's money, you would have today. I see you can still laugh in a few days."
At this moment, when Hu Yukun was about to leave, a group of people suddenly came into the door, about a dozen people. One of the gentle boys with glasses even complained: "It's better to have Tengda. What about that Huanhuanxing? Why is it a good place? It's so good. It's just a suffocating me to death. The computer is not very good. My Red Alert broke the troops a little and it got stuck. I won't go there anymore."
"Oh, Tengda, the iron cockerel has actually issued a new recharge offer. After recharge, it will be almost three or five yuan. Go and recharge quickly." Another person saw the promotion notice and immediately started talking.
These people didn't even see Hu Yukun and others, so they directly recharged and went online. After waiting for a while, the two couples came over. One of them said, "I still like Tengda here, I have a good time!"
After just half an hour, Hu Yukun didn't say anything, and his originally proud expression gradually began to change, to gloomy and then to anger. When he was really embarrassed to continue staying, the chance of attending the entire Tengda Net Garden was more than 70%.
...
Hu Yukun came out loud and left in shame. Guo Yuanhang is not in the mood to care about him now. Huanhuanxing's price war is the key issue.
Disorderly competition has already shown signs in the entire Internet cafe industry. Price wars are a double-edged sword in any industry. Killing others will also hurt yourself. They have never thought that Huanhuanxing is now taking the lead in reducing the price, which is cutting off the financial path of all Internet cafes around. There is a saying that cutting off the wealth path is like killing parents. Luo Guangtou will have trouble in the future.
It is not so easy to break the rules. If you want to break the rules, you must have the ability to make the rules again. Obviously, Luo Long's current level is not as good as his capital reserves, vision ability, or his network reputation in this industry.
Therefore, Guo Yuanhang was not in a hurry at all. The group of people who came in to surf the Internet just now were the most simple examples. If you have any advantages, you will naturally go there. But in the end, some people will come back.
Zhou Yong chuckled, touched Guo Yuanhang's shoulder, and said, "Old Guo, your ex-brother isn't stupid. You can see so many things."
Guo Yuanhang smiled and said, "It's not stupid, it's just that he's a little too scrupulous. If he hadn't been deliberately trying to harm me, he wouldn't have done such stupid things. Unfortunately, he was wrong. He didn't understand at all. Sometimes, not only user saturation, environment, computers, and network speed will become decisive factors. Besides, Luo Long has been angry now, wait, I guess someone will take revenge soon."
As he was talking, Guo Yuanhang's cell phone also rang.
