The three of them looked at each other, and Liang Ming nodded first.
The senior brother looked at Long Teng, "Is Miss Long also in the tourism industry?"
Long Teng paused and shook his head.
The elder brother smiled and said, "You know the tourism industry very well."
Long Teng lowered his head.
"Actually, I have been expecting Huan'er to stir up this quagmire. Tour guides should make money by explaining and providing services. Now that they have become shopping guides, the pressure of sales is much greater than explaining.
Because it is indeed of low quality and high price, you have to recommend and introduce it without conscience and exaggerate. Then tourists may not necessarily buy it. Now they can return it. It is indeed very difficult to do.
It's just that we have been in the industry for a long time, and like Miss Long said, we are a little afraid of changing. Because this model has been used for so many years, although it is getting more and more difficult, and everyone is scolding and complaining, it is still very complicated.
In fact, when low-priced tours were first promoted, the tour guides also went on strike. As long as the tour guides united and refused to accept the group, this low-priced tour would not be possible. But the tourism market is so big, there are always people who want to travel cheaply, and there are always people who will take it.
Everyone wants to eat, and they can only take food. So the market is getting worse and worse. In fact, after the crackdown on low-priced tours in the past few years, it has become much more formal.
The original group buying, gambling groups, zero tour fees, negative tour fees are almost gone. But low-priced tours are really difficult to manage. Like Spring Dali, which costs a few hundred yuan, and you get a free Banna after the tour. There are still many such tours.
These few hundred yuan are just a token fee, and at the end of the trip, you will be given Banna as a gift, something like this, it is just a variation of zero tour fee, negative tour fee. In the end, you still have to rely on shopping.
But it is true that supervision is strict, tourists are becoming more and more sophisticated, and low-priced tours are becoming increasingly difficult to do.
Like me, I rely on explanations and services, and I don't introduce products. When I go to a shopping store, some tourists see the tour guide's hard work and buy whatever they want. If they don't buy, there's nothing they can do.
Like Jingjing, she is good at telling stories, and her group purchases are more. But the pressure is increasing, which is also a fact."
The elder brother looked at the elder sister, who took a sip of wine.
"So I hope this market can really change and everyone can be more relaxed. We really can't rely entirely on Huan'er to do this." The senior brother nodded.
Long Teng's expression relaxed and he looked at Senior Sister again.
The senior sister took a sip of wine and said, "Who doesn't want to make clean money? I have been a tour guide for so many years and have served all kinds of tourists. In fact, the higher the tour fee, the higher the quality. Those who offer low-priced tours are just careless.
The woman Huan'er met this time was indeed disgusting, but compared to what we encountered, it was all trivial.
These people spend less money, but they want the best service, and they complain all the time. I don’t know, they spent hundreds of yuan on a trip, but the travel expenses are not enough, so how can they be so angry? They complain about this and that.
This kind of group usually doesn't live well. Sometimes you stay in a guest house in the suburbs, where there are a lot of mosquitoes and cockroaches. Tourists really ask you to kill cockroaches in the middle of the night. If you get bitten by mosquitoes, you have to complain.
The service in that kind of hotel is not good, and it has to be returned to the travel agency, so it basically doesn't care about the team. The tour guide has to work as a room attendant. In the middle of the night, you are asked to go all the way to buy mosquito coils, and you are asked to call the construction site outside to stop work..."
The senior sister sighed and took a sip of wine, "Before this group, I maintained a record of zero complaints. For this zero complaint, I am like a maid, serving these uncles."
"Everyone wants to make clean money and easy money." The senior sister nodded.
Long Teng breathed a sigh of relief. Then he picked up the cup and took a sip.
"thank you all."
"You're welcome. This is indeed not Huan'er's responsibility alone. Everyone has the responsibility to make this market better," the senior brother said.
"In other industries, as costs rise and consumption levels get higher and higher, prices continue to rise. Only in the tourism industry, there were thousands of domestic tours and tens of thousands of overseas tours in the 1990s. After more than 20 years, the price has continued to rise.
It turned into several hundred yuan, and it was even free of charge.
It’s so crazy! They spend hundreds of yuan on groceries and meals when they stay at home for a week, and hundreds of yuan when they travel out for a week. They also regard themselves as Gods from above and order the tour guides around. This is really perverted!
But more and more people are going out to travel. Everyone has travel needs. If there is a need, there will be people who do it. More people are entering this market, making this market worse and worse.
When we first started to crack down on low-priced tours, travel agencies and tour guides were also very happy. The tour fee was raised at that time, but no one reported it. So in the end we had to continue to offer low-priced tours.
However, Huan'er has indeed brought in more sensible and quality tourists. I really hope that quality tours can replace low-priced tours and become the mainstream of the market.
We are going to give this a try to see how many people are willing to sign up for a quality tour. Can we satisfy most of the educated tour guides?"
"Um."
Long Teng's cell phone rang, and seeing that it was He Huan, he quickly picked it up.
"Longlong! Are you leaving?"
Hearing his panic, Long Teng comforted him: "No! Didn't you see that my luggage is still there?"
"Then where are you?"
"Um...I...um..."
The three of them looked at her. Long Teng really didn't know what the reason was, "My aunt is here, I came out to buy that."
"A neighborhood convenience store?"
“The convenience store didn’t have the brand I wanted, so I went out to look for it.”
"Where are you? The supermarket? I'll pick you up."
"Don't come to pick me up. If you get lost later, you'll have to ask me to find you."
The three of them covered their mouths and couldn't hold back their laughter.
"But you are so beautiful, how dangerous it is to go out alone at night!" He Huan added, "Is Liang Ming with you? He is gone too."
"Ahem! No! He may, he seems to have something to do, someone is looking for him, and he went out before me."
It was obvious that He Huan was lost in thought...
Long Teng said quickly: "Oops! Just hang up now. I'll be back in a moment."
"Then please be safe!"
"Um."
When she hung up the phone, the three of them burst out laughing.
The senior sister said: "Don't Huan'er know you are coming out?"
"Miss Long made him drunk before he came out." Liang Ming said.
The senior brother and senior sister laughed again, "Why do you have to get drunk?"
"Then I'll go back first." Long Teng stood up and put the phone back into his pocket. He was too anxious and didn't put it in, so it fell down the pocket.
Liang Ming quickly slapped his phone on the table and took out his notepad.
What was written on the notepad was what she just said, paragraph by paragraph, densely packed.
Seeing Liang Ming approaching, the senior brother and senior sister couldn't help but get closer and saw themselves - senior brother, senior sister...
Long Teng hurriedly said: "Because I have no education and can't speak."
The three of them covered their faces to block their laughter.
Long Teng said seriously: "You are all well-educated and eloquent tour guides. I'm afraid that I won't be able to say anything when I meet you. That's why I wrote it down first. Thank you for your cooperation."
The three of them laughed so hard that their shoulders shook.
"You should let Huan'er come, he is so sharp-tongued." The elder brother could still hold back.
"I know he is very good at talking, but he doesn't want to say anything right now, so I have no choice but to talk."
"Have you finished what you wrote?" The senior sister stared at her phone and couldn't help but want to scroll down.
Long Teng quickly grabbed the phone in his hand, "No...but if you are willing to support him, there is no need to say anything."
The three of them looked at her with smiles.
"Then you go back first." Senior Brother said.
Liang Ming also stood up. After walking out of his seat, Long Teng looked at Liang Ming and said, "You have to go to work tomorrow, right?"
"Yes, it's a one-day trip every day. There are many one-day tours for fun, and the new regulations will not affect it. If you want to go to Jizhou, you basically have to go into the store. There is still a bit of resistance from shopping stores and tour guides. Now it's just for fun.
There really aren’t many.”
Long Teng turned to look at Senior Brother and Senior Sister, "Senior Brother, Senior Sister, you can come to their home for dinner tomorrow night."
The senior brother and senior sister smiled and said: "Okay."
Liang Ming couldn't help but laugh. Miss Long invited you to their home for dinner!
Long Teng was very embarrassed and turned around and walked out.
After they went out, the senior brother and senior sister laughed loudly.
"Where did Huan'er pick up such a girlfriend?" said the senior sister.
The senior brother also laughed and said: "I have no education... Hahaha... Now, is this kind of humble writing method very fashionable? She is well-organized and well-reasoned, and her analysis is clear. I thought she was a senior colleague! As a result
Written in a small notebook...hahahaha..."
The two took a taxi back to the community. As they approached the door of the unit, Long Teng turned to Liang Ming and said, "You come up later, I'll go up first."
"Okay." Liang Ming stopped.
Looking up, the two of them saw He Huan standing in the shadow under the tree at the door.
Startled, Long Teng looked embarrassed.
Liang Ming quickly said: "Huan'er! Why did you come down? Actually, Miss Long saw that you couldn't sleep, so she asked me to take her to the hospital to consult a doctor to see if there was any way to help you sleep well.
One thing. The doctor said that you can’t take this medicine randomly, and I suggest you take it easy.”
He Huan was very moved and stepped forward to hug Long Teng.
Liang Ming stroked his chest from behind.
Holding hands and going upstairs, Long Teng looked at him, "You were drunk and you woke up so soon?"
"Yeah." He Huan sighed, "Don't worry, I will relax."
"Um."
She was so worried about him that she lay on the bed. He Huan tried his best to fall asleep. But the harder he tried, the more he couldn't fall asleep. He was very sleepy and tired, but his mind just couldn't relax. Those things were stuffed inside, and he could neither sort them out nor release them.
.
Long Teng doesn't want to tell his elder brother and elder sister now that he has decided to stand with him. She just thinks that it is too difficult for him to be alone and needs help. But they still have to discuss how to do it tomorrow.
His worries told him, and he had to think about it again.
Just hug him and say, "Just think about us watching the stars on the boat in Lugu Lake."
"Yeah." He Huan hugged her and imagined himself lying on the boat. Although he was drunk that night, he had a really comfortable sleep that night.
Imagine that the boat is swaying under the starry sky and you are lying in her arms, so peaceful.
Gradually fell asleep.
But he woke up again in the middle of the night. He Huan hugged her and didn't move, for fear of waking her up. He didn't know what the future would bring, he just wanted to have this moment.
