Chapter 1616 The plan to open a branch
The cheers from the audience were naturally directed at Yang Xianer.
"Dongzi, look, it's really Yang Xian'er!" Li Menglin said excitedly.
Yang Dongni on the side looked relatively calm.
Compared to Yang Xian'er's star effect, she is more concerned about the benefits that Yang Xian'er's participation in the catering competition can bring to the Rose Hotel.
After thinking about it, Yang Dongni said to Zhang Dong:
"Dongzi, after this catering competition is over, maybe we can ask Yang Xian'er to help us advertise our hotel!"
"Uh..." Zhang Dong glanced at Yang Xian'er, and then at Yang Dongni beside him.
"Let her help us advertise? The advertising fee must be several million! Why spend this wasted money?" Zhang Dong couldn't help but shook his head as he said this.
Many manufacturing industries require celebrities to shoot advertisements, but the catering industry is different.
The investment and gain in advertising in the catering industry are completely out of proportion!
Unexpectedly, Yang Dongni said after hearing this: "Dongzi, have you forgotten that our hotel will have to open a branch in the future? I am planning to open the next branch in Tianjing City!"
"What? Tianjing City?" Zhang Dong was surprised.
Tianjing City is the capital of the neighboring province and one of the largest cities in China/Xia!
If the provincial capital where Zhang Dong is located can only be regarded as a second-tier city, then Tianjing City is a proper first-tier city.
Zhang Dong never expected that Yang Dongni would actually want to open a branch in Tianjing City.
"Dong Ni, what do you think? If we go to Tianjing City to open a branch, wouldn't that mean we are crossing the province? I was thinking before that we should go directly to the provincial capital to open a branch!" Zhang Dong couldn't help but say.
Hearing this, Yang Dongni smiled and glanced at Yang Mingyan beside her: "It's better to let my cousin answer this question!"
Yang Mingyan had no choice but to say: "Okay, let me answer this question! Dongzi, don't you think that Haishan City is a bit too far from the provincial capital?"
"This..." Zhang Dong didn't know how to answer for a while.
Indeed, the distance from Haishan City to the provincial capital is quite far.
The provincial capital is located in the north, but Haishan City is at the opposite corner of the provincial capital. The distance between the two is basically the farthest among the cities in the province.
Even if you take the high-speed rail, it takes half a day to get there!
In contrast, although Tianjing City is the capital of the neighboring province, it is not too far from Haishan City.
It can be reached in three hours by high-speed train!
At this time, Yang Mingyan continued:
"And there is another important reason. I have studied the catering industry in provincial capitals before. The catering industry in provincial capitals is basically controlled by a few big families! Even if we open a branch there, it will be difficult to achieve the success we have now.
Results!"
"But Tianjing City is different! Tianjing City's cultural tolerance is relatively strong, and the local big families pay more attention to the real estate industry. As for the catering industry, they rarely get involved. So when we go to Tianjing City, we can definitely flex our muscles.
!And there’s nothing to think about!”
After listening to what Yang Mingyan said, Zhang Dong was also a little moved.
He was pretty familiar with the situation in the provincial capital. When he went to the provincial capital before, Zhang Dong had eaten in a large restaurant owned by Lu Donglin.
And not only the Lu family, but also several other big families in the provincial capital seem to like opening restaurants!
In contrast, except for the Lei family who likes to open restaurants, the remaining major families in Haishan City have little interest in the catering industry.
Later, the girls saw that Zhang Dong was deep in thought and did not disturb him.
They knew that with Zhang Dong's intelligence, he would definitely be able to figure out where it would be more beneficial to open a branch.
In addition, there is another important reason that neither woman said directly, that is, Zhang Dong has good relations with several major families in the provincial capital.
The Rose Hotel is like a dragon crossing the river. If it opens a branch in a provincial capital, it will definitely eat up the share of local hotels in order to fatten up the dragon crossing the river.
But Zhang Dong's relationship with several big families is very good, and he is also quite emotional.
The two women were worried that Zhang Dong might not be able to bear to eat up the share of other big hotels.
In fact, when it comes to fair competition, no hotel can rival the Rose Hotel.
How big a share the Rose Hotel can take in the future depends entirely on whether Zhang Dong can be ruthless.
In order to prevent Zhang Dong from getting entangled, and to consider the future interests of the Rose Hotel, the two women decided to open a hotel in Tianjing City.
"This matter... I will consider it later later!" Zhang Dong did not make a decision on the spot.
He is no longer the young boy he used to be.
As the owner with the largest shareholding in the Rose Hotel, he must consider issues from the hotel's perspective and must not make major decisions lightly.
As everyone knows, Zhang Dong's behavior in the eyes of the two women actually made them appreciate him even more.
Men who make decisions casually are either fools or reckless men. Smart women look down on such men.
Smart women often prefer men who are calm and wise!
At this time, Zhang Dong suddenly noticed that there were many familiar people on the field today.
Most of the city’s prominent hoteliers are here!
It seems that they also want to take advantage of this opportunity to discover one or two outstanding chefs.
This is also the reason why Zhang Dong strongly supported the Catering Association to launch a cooking competition.
If you want to open a branch, you must recruit new top chefs.
The competition in the catering industry is so fierce now that it is very difficult to recruit one or two chefs from the same industry, and it is easy to lose your reputation.
The best way is to dig it out from the private sector.
Just like when Zhang Dong dug out Duan Chunsheng, before Zhang Dong dug him out, who would have thought that the owner of a small shabby restaurant could actually be a chef with top-notch home cooking skills!
Afterwards, Zhang Dong said hello to other hotel owners with his eyes from a distance and ignored them.
Maybe, after this cooking competition ends, it will be the time when major restaurants compete for chefs!
These people will all be Zhang Dong's enemies in the future.
Of course, except Haishan Hotel, because Haishan Hotel didn’t send anyone at all!
It's not that Haishan Hotel is short of chefs, but Lei Zhanhu wants to show his goodwill to Zhang Dong and he doesn't want to compete with Zhang Dong.
Otherwise, Lei Zhanhu would not have specially arranged for the Lei family's companies to invest in the cooking competition!
Among the subsequent sponsorships for the cooking competition, one million was invested by companies under the Lei family.
You don't need to think about it to know that the brothers Lei Zhanlong and Lei Zhanhu must have been behind this.
At this moment, Yang Xianer is still the protagonist who receives the most attention in the audience.
Especially when she sat on the judges' bench, she once again aroused cheers from the audience.
Moreover, not only the audience, but also several contestants in their twenties also showed excitement.
Among young people, many are fans of Yang Xianer, both men and women.
Especially those young people, they regard the jade/female star/star Yang Xianer as the pure goddess in their minds!
At this time, Zhang Dong glanced at Yang Xian'er, and Yang Xian'er happened to look back at him.
Chapter completed!
