"This is what I think. In addition to the construction scale of our hotel, the guest rooms should be smaller in planning space. The standards in other aspects can actually be closer to the five-star standard. But if we really operate it as a five-star,
And because I am not outstanding because of my inherent shortcomings, it is difficult to be competitive. So I thought, it is better to downgrade myself to a four-star as we agreed at the beginning, and the housing prices should be based on the four-star and five-star standards.
For a standard hotel room of RMB 650, we charge RMB 500 for a four-star hotel, which is quite a lot. However, our service facilities and service levels must comply with the five-star requirements, or even exceed the five-star requirements.
and standards.”
"For example, like towels, slippers, toothbrushes, paper towels, and bath products, generally five-star hotels try their best to reduce losses and costs, just use local products of similar quality. And for the candies, snacks, and tea placed in the room
We charge for things such as bags, beer, and drinks. We can’t do this. We have high requirements on the quality of consumables, and we have to provide free candies, snacks, tea bags, beer, and drinks. Each room is equipped with a small
We filled the refrigerator, put the most seasonal local fruits, and gave guests local cakes and tea, changing them every day. How much is it? Just like what the eldest sister just said, let’s be more generous, less
It’s nothing to make a million.”
"We should be different from those high-end hotels that are eager to cut costs when opening a store, or have an eye for money and try to rip off customers. In this case, our hotel's cost-effectiveness will be high for guests, which is equivalent to being used by guests.
Staying in a five-star hotel at a four-star price is so cost-effective! Although the cost will increase for us, this is still a small amount compared to the hotel room price, but it can greatly improve the hotel experience. To be honest, I
The current domestic prices are not too high. We only need to spend 20 yuan a day on consumables for each guest in a room. If we earn less than 20 yuan, we can serve them like emperors and queens. Even if they are
If I can receive this kind of treatment, I can’t think of any reason not to stay in our hotel.”
"Although our hotel is not the company's main business, it is our first time to get involved in hotel management. We lack experience and the hotel decoration does not have any features to attract guests. We do not have a revolving restaurant or an indoor garden. This is all true.
But the problem is, the comfort created by high-quality services and high-end daily necessities can be called the biggest feature of our hotel! It is better than those bells and whistles. If a little bit of detail is accumulated, customers can experience our hotel.
With good intentions, we can improve our reputation and achieve a virtuous circle. After all, tourists who stay in foreign-related hotels like ours travel frequently, so our advantages will be obvious when compared with other places. To put it bluntly, we will
Be extraordinary in the ordinary. Why can’t we break the industry’s prevailing model and take advantage of our company’s advantages in all aspects?”
Not to mention, Ning Weimin's remarks really lived up to the expectations of Song Huagui and Zou Guodong.
After hearing his suggestion, both of them felt enlightened and enlightened.
"Well, Wei Min, your idea is indeed interesting. It's better to be a chicken head than a phoenix tail. Also, we must pay attention to utilizing our strengths and avoiding weaknesses in everything we do. Instead of competing desperately with five-star hotels, we should be down-to-earth.
Make the hotel the best among four-star hotels and strive for maximum popularity and passenger flow. If we reduce the competition from behemoths like ours next door to competitors like Jianguo Hotel or Jinglun Hotel, then our advantages will be greater. It may not be impossible.
Suppress them."
Zou Guodong was the first to express his appreciation.
"Yes, Weimin's idea is very good. And it is consistent with our brand positioning. Even though our Pierre Cardin company seems to be the representative of high-end clothing in China, to be honest, we know best that in the international market,
Pierre Cardin is actually a quite popular ready-to-wear brand. Especially in developed countries, 'PC' clothing is affordable for any ordinary person. It is the first time for a popular brand like ours to get involved in the hotel business. If we want to go
The high-end route may be a joke in the eyes of European guests. Unless we adopt Maxim, a more historical brand, it may still be recognized by some people. But in that case, the brand awareness will not be as high as Pierre Cardin.
.If we do this now and get four stars, I think it is just right. I think this is a very clever market positioning. Then we will prepare according to Weimin's ideas. I think we can try this approach."
Song Huagui later expressed his agreement.
It should be said that this is the first time that several of them have such a unanimous view on one thing.
They were able to reach a consensus so easily and each other was very happy.
Therefore, several people felt a little unfinished, so they continued chatting along this topic, even forgetting about eating.
In the end, it was Ning Weimin's stomach growling unsatisfactorily that finally reminded Song Huagui and Zou Guodong, making them realize what they had completely ignored.
For this reason, everyone laughed together.
Song Huagui then apologized profusely and hurriedly asked everyone to go upstairs to eat.
She said that although the hotel restaurant was still closed, someone was actually preparing meals at her home upstairs today, and that was Zou Guodong's lover, who was probably waiting in a hurry.
After hearing this, Ning Weimin and Matsumoto Keiko thanked Zou Guodong and said they had worked hard.
Unexpectedly, I was just being polite.
Zou Guodong took advantage of this to cause trouble again and deliberately called Ning Weimin into battle.
This guy said that there was no need to thank him, but he had recently encountered a problem in the hotel. As long as Ning Weimin could find a way to help solve it, the meal would not be in vain.
Otherwise, sooner or later, he will have to be returned, and he will have to let Qingzi cook a meal for everyone. Celebrities have no privileges.
Although Ning Weimin knew that Zou Guodong had the intention to cause trouble for him, he also knew that he was not evil-minded.
It's just that they are used to it, and their relationship is similar to that of Brother Ikkyu and the owner of the Jigen shop on TV. Quan treats it as a game of wits, so it doesn't matter if he tells him straight.
Who knew that what Zou Guodong was talking about was actually an important matter, and it was something that no one could do anything about at this time.
If it is not solved well, it will definitely affect the normal operation of the hotel.
Recently in China, AIDS phobia is expanding among foreign-related tourism workers such as waiters and tour guides in foreign-related hotels in Beijing.
What hotel waiters in Beijing hate most now is cleaning foreigners' rooms. They all say, "What if I contract AIDS?"
Some tour guides even try their best to avoid shaking hands with foreigners.
Specific to their hotels, although they are not open, there are signs of this kind of panic spreading.
Many of the employees who were finally recruited are wavering because they are afraid of contracting the disease. Many people even want to resign because of this. They are really scared to the core.
Ning Weimin understood the crux of the matter as soon as he heard it.
In fact, the key lies in the fact that there is not enough research on this disease in this era, and the relevant information is not transparent.
Perhaps even the domestic health department does not have much information about this disease, let alone understanding and treatment. What is certain is that this disease is irregular, has no legal treatment, is a terminal illness, and can lead to death very quickly.
So much so that rumors spread, and people generally lacked relevant common sense, causing panic among foreign service personnel, making everyone regard this disease as a scourge.
Nowadays, people generally believe that anyone who comes into contact with daily objects used by people with AIDS can be infected.
So he really did his job. After he went upstairs, in order to refute the rumors, he sat down and took it seriously. He very patiently took out the relevant knowledge he had learned in his previous life and held a popular science class.
Mainly, he explained the problems of several ways of transmitting AIDS, and that AIDS itself is not fatal, but only erodes people's immunity.
In the end, AIDS patients will die, all due to complications caused by lack of immunity.
As a result, these people were immediately stunned by the goods in his belly, and they were all dumbfounded.
Ning Weimin was somewhat complacent about this, thinking who we are, it's not easy to clarify this matter.
Unexpectedly, he was so happy that he was really reckless, because when he looked at a table full of good wine and delicious food, apart from talking about showing off, he was only thinking about eating and drinking, but in the end he just ignored one important thing.
That's it, the present world report.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zou Guodong asked him a question that he couldn't avoid, let alone answer. It was so embarrassing for him.
"Weimin, you are very professional. If you don't know better, I would think you are an expert who specializes in this disease. Hey, but I am surprised. How do you know these things? Are you interested? It seems that you are interested in this disease.
It really took a lot of effort..."
"I……"
Looking at their wives Qingzi, Song Huagui, and even Zou Guodong's wife, these three women all looked at themselves with complicated and doubtful eyes.
Ning Weimin's pride in gaining the limelight by mastering information in his previous life disappeared in an instant.
Instead, he realized that he had entered a dead end because he was driving too fast.
Today he finally understood what it means to talk too much and lose everything.
Damn it! The word "trapped in a cocoon" can actually be used on me one day?
………………
After visiting Song Huagui and seeing the hotel that was about to open, Ning Weimin couldn't rest for a moment.
Because in addition to him and Qingzi needing to cooperate with the two old men in preparing for their wedding in the capital, he personally also has a lot of official and private matters to deal with, and many people to meet.
Even Keiko Matsumoto has a full schedule because of the release of the movie "Li Xianglan" and the movie's soundtrack album in mainland China.
This is not surprising. The capable work hard and the mediocre are free. In fact, it is a normal phenomenon.
Otherwise, Zhuangzi would not have said something like, "The skilful are laboring while the wise are worried; the ignorant have nothing to seek; traveling when they are well fed is like a boat without ties."
The reason why rich people are busier than poor people is because they pursue higher values.
Because they themselves are "tools" for creating social wealth.
If they stop, their "tools" will lose their effectiveness, and their lives will lose their purpose and meaning.
After returning from this trip, in fact, the most important thing in Ning Weimin's heart is the seeds he sowed last year - Palace Yellow and Purple Gold Hoops, one is Beijing Oil Chicken, and the other is Royal Field Rouge Rice.
So after that, he didn’t go anywhere. He went directly to the Agricultural University and met with the leaders of the two project cooperation groups.
Not to mention, in modern times, having money means getting things done easily, and in the hands of experts, these two things are really good.
First, let’s talk about the chickens raised in the experimental pasture affiliated to the Agricultural University. From about 100 at the beginning, the number of chickens has been expanded to nearly 500, and they are divided into three pastures to keep them complete.
Although only half of the oil chickens have the appearance and production characteristics of the royal yellow body, the road to breeding and breeding is still long, and the day when it can be industrialized is still far away.
But this should be regarded as having successfully preserved the best chicken breed in the capital, and there will no longer be any accidents that will cause it to become extinct.
At the same time, those chickens that were eliminated because they did not meet the standards can also be eaten.
Although it is a defective product, it is stained with palace yellow seeds and is free-range, so the taste is still far superior to ordinary chicken breeds.
After learning that Ning Weimin was returning to Beijing to hold a wedding, Li Zengguang, the expert in charge of the palace yellow team, offered to give Ning Weimin some substandard chickens for his wedding banquet if he didn't mind.
At least forty or fifty is enough to guarantee supply.
Ning Weimin was naturally overjoyed, and this was an unexpected surprise.
As for the Zijin Hoop, the Agricultural University's experimental field was set up in Shangzhuang, Haidian, with a total of two hectares designated.
When Ning Weimin saw the rice fields, the rice had already begun to sprout ears, and the growth rate looked quite good. The place was already a prosperous pastoral scene.
Tang You once wrote in a poem that the rice is weeping and the wheat is raised, the yin and yang are raised, the earth is thick, the springs are fragrant, the licorice and wood are fragrant. The two qi are spitting out nine ears of ears, and a star in the sky is auspicious to farmers. This is almost the scene.
Hong Yingfang, the expert in charge of the team, also feels that God is in good hands and has made a relatively optimistic forecast of production.
He said that the yield of freshly milled rice after polishing, chip removal and other processes can reach more than 200 jins per mu, and a total harvest of 4,000 to 5,000 jins should be achieved, although it is worse than the 6,700 jins per acre of ordinary Jingxi rice.
Far away.
But for rouge rice, this is indeed a good harvest.
Under normal circumstances, one acre of land can produce about a hundred kilograms.
Otherwise, why is this kind of rice so scarce?
But the good news is that rice cultivation yields quick results and is not as troublesome as raising chickens.
Moreover, rouge rice is special and can be harvested before the white dew.
Even if the planting area is expanded five times next year, seeds need to be saved after this year's harvest.
By then, they will be able to leave half of the rouge rice for Ning Weimin to sell.
That is more than two thousand kilograms.
Of course, it's not much. If it were really open to the public, it wouldn't be enough for the main store of Tan Gong Restaurant to sell to the outside world.
But if you get it to Japan, you should be able to use this thing to fool the little devils.
Isn’t it expensive for a bowl of rice to cost 9,900 yen?
This is for the royal family, the Nine-Nine Supreme.
That one pound of rice can produce five and a half peas, even if it is sold for fifty thousand yen.
These two thousand kilograms of rouge rice can be exchanged for 100 million yen, which is several million yuan!
Well done.
How could Ning Weimin be unhappy?
Who says China doesn’t have top-quality ingredients?
