David Yu never expected that a total of twenty people would come to Chu Tianyao's symposium.
There are even many people here who did not attend the sorority party that night.
"Pretty boy, we meet again, do you still remember me?"
Wearing a burgundy suit, Zuo Yilin walked up to David Yu from the crowd.
"Hong Kong guy, why are you here too?"
David Yu glanced at Zuo Yilin, who was particularly showy, and said with a bit of surprise.
Although he didn't know Zuo Yilin's identity, David Yu also knew that the guy in front of him should be a rich second generation from Hong Kong City.
"Don't call me a Hong Kong guy, just call me Yilin. Let me ask you, who is this friend of yours?"
Zuo Yilin looked at Chu Tianyao in front of the crowd and asked David with some curiosity.
Although this guy Zuo Yilin is a young man with nothing, he is not really a dandy. He is just a scholar and an investor, and he is just being deceived one after another.
On the night of the sorority party, no matter how stupid Zuo Yilin was, he should have been able to tell that Chu Tianyao was hardly on the same level as those guys who came to him to invest money.
Especially when he learned that Chu Tianyao was also starting a technology company, he secretly felt that his opportunity had come.
Isn't this the partner he has been looking for for a long time?
"See these people?"
In front of Zuo Yilin, David Yu pursed his lips at the people sitting in front of Chu Tianyao.
"My friend is not an ordinary person. If you want to get close to him, you have to queue up. Do you understand?"
Zuo Yilin was a little disapproving after hearing this. He was born in Hong Kong, one of the Four Asian Tigers. He had been in the circle of wealthy people since he was a child and had never seen any big business people.
Although Chu Tianyao seems to have some ability, he is not yet qualified enough for him to line up and get close.
In the hall, just when Zuo Yilin was about to announce his identity, someone from the crowd suddenly stood up and asked Chu Tianyao the first question.
"Mr. Chu, I heard that your business planning is very good. I have some questions that I would like to consult."
A middle-aged man in a gray jacket raised his hand and asked Chu Tianyao.
"I can't say it's awesome, but you can talk about your problem first."
Chu Tianyao smiled slightly.
While talking, he noticed that the other person's right hand was covered with calluses, and he seemed to be a grassroots boss.
"My family has been making claypot rice in Dongmen for generations. From a street stall 20 years ago, I now own 12 chain stores. I want to turn my claypot rice into a national chain brand and open stores in
Southwest, even north.”
Having said this, the man's face showed a trace of embarrassment and said: "But I don't know why, my store is obviously doing well in Guangdong Province, but when I go to other places, it doesn't adapt to the local environment. Business always fails to grow, and I can't invest in advertising money."
few."
In the hall, after hearing the man's words, many catering business owners showed empathetic expressions.
At this time, everyone subconsciously looked at Chu Tianyao, wondering what Chu Tianyao could do.
“Claypot rice…”
After hearing what the other party said, Chu Tianyao, who was standing in front of everyone, folded his hands on his chest and held his chin in his hand, thinking for a moment.
It is true that Chu Tianyao has never worked in the catering industry, but it does not mean that he does not understand it. In fact, when he was successful in his previous life, he had cooperated with many catering companies, and he still knew some of the experience.
"Where is your first choice for overseas expansion?"
Chu Tianyao thought for a moment and then asked the man in front of him.
The other party was slightly startled.
"My wife is from Sichuan Province. She said that the catering industry in Sichuan Province is developing well and local people also like to eat. Therefore, the first area where my chain store will enter is Sichuan Province."
The man smiled and said, but he didn't understand what was wrong with his choice.
But when Chu Tianyao heard this, he knew what the problem was, and he couldn't help but smile and said:
"There are two reasons for your failure. One of them is that you should not have made Sichuan Province your first target."
"Mr. Chu, why is this? I have done similar market research and found that the catering market in Sichuan Province has great potential..."
The man retorted. In fact, not only him, but also all the entrepreneurs present looked confused.
Chu Tianyao shook his head and explained patiently: "There are four major cuisines in China, among which Sichuan cuisine is at least the top two. Claypot rice is a typical southern dish. Why do you think that just one southern dish can win the first place in Sichuan?"
Can the province survive?"
"Compared to Sichuan Province, I suggest you change your mind and start from the north across regions. The catering market in the south is fiercely competitive. Maybe starting from the north is a good choice."
During the venue, many people nodded when they heard Chu Tianyao's words, but they obviously felt that it was just for this reason, and there were some things that they couldn't explain.
Chu Tianyao glanced around, taking in everyone's expressions, and then continued:
"Of course, this is only one of the reasons. The claypot rice you mentioned has another biggest characteristic, that is, it is fast food. Since it is positioned as fast food, the core competitiveness of its product should highlight the word "kuai", which is consistent with ours.
Compared with common noodles and box lunches, claypot rice has almost no core competitiveness in the positioning of fast food."
In the hall, as soon as Chu Tianyao finished speaking, many people, including the man in the jacket, showed expressions of realization.
"Core competitiveness?"
Although the man in the jacket started out as a street caterer, he now understood what Chu Tianyao meant by core competitiveness.
"Mr. Chu, then I would like to ask how should I solve this core competitiveness problem?"
The man looked at Chu Tianyao and asked eagerly.
Hearing this, Chu Tianyao did not rush to answer. He felt that many people in the room were also interested. He smiled and said slowly:
"I am only responsible for business consulting today. If you want me to come up with a planning plan, that will be a different price."
Hearing Chu Tianyao's words, although the man hesitated slightly, he still slapped his thigh decisively and said:
"Mr. Chu, as long as you can solve my problem, I can pay you a separate business planning fee."
In the 1990s, although there was no such thing as paying for knowledge, there were quite a few people who did business planning like this to Chu Tianyao.
The famous idea king He Yang is one of them.
"Okay, then please go check in with my assistant David. If there are no problems, we can make an appointment to chat privately."
Chu Tianyao said with a smile, and immediately turned his head and glanced at David Yu.
Seeing this, David Yu looked puzzled at first, but then he hurriedly came up to him with a smile and handed over his business card.
