Chu Tianyao looked in the direction pointed by his men and spotted a man wearing a suit and gold-rimmed glasses.
This guy was dressed well, but his eyes looked at Chu Tianyao and the others with a bit of contempt.
Chu Tianyao could tell at a glance that this guy must be someone who looks down on others.
Sure enough, when Chu Tianyao's men finished speaking, they immediately retorted.
"Stop making excuses for yourself. Isn't it right for you to hit someone?"
"If you have any questions, go talk to the police!"
The policeman was chatting with the man in glasses just now, and Chu Tianyao could tell that he was very familiar with the man.
At this time, the policeman suddenly turned grim and took out handcuffs and came over.
"Stop talking, you are the person in charge here, right?"
"it's me."
"The employees in your store are suspected of causing quarrels and causing trouble. All of them, including you, must be taken away!"
Having said this, Long Si's expression changed and he was about to take action.
In order not to make the matter a big deal, Chu Tianyao stood in front of his employees.
"Wait a minute, I have a question I want to ask."
"As a police officer, don't you know that this guy was the first to provoke us?"
"If we are going to be arrested, it is only fair if everyone is arrested together!"
Seeing that Chu Tianyao was trying to drag him into the water, the man with glasses panicked and quickly pointed to the red and swollen area on his face.
"Look, your employee injured me!"
"You can't deny this, right?
You either go with the police or pay the money!"
Don't look at the hysterical look of the man with the eyes. In fact, this really frightened Chu Tianyao.
"Compensate?
That's easy to say, but if you stained my newly renovated store, you have to pay for it, right?"
The man with glasses was angry, thinking that Chu Tianyao was just here to blackmail him, so he deliberately said with a look of disgust.
"Just compensate, don't you just want to blackmail someone?
What’s so great!”
"How much did you say?"
Chu Tianyao also followed suit, folding his hands and looking at him with a smile.
"How much compensation do you have to pay for your injuries? How much compensation do I have to pay for this wall!"
"you……"
The man with glasses was very angry, and he also saw that Chu Tianyao was deliberately teasing him.
"Can your broken wall compare to my face?"
"Your man punched me. The medical expenses, lost work expenses, mental damages, etc. all add up to 30,000 yuan!"
While they were arguing, many people stopped and stopped.
When the onlookers heard the 30,000 yuan, they suddenly exclaimed.
After all, in this port city at this time, thirty thousand yuan was a lot of money.
"What a joke, can your broken face compare to my wall?"
"You stained my wall. The total decoration fee, lost work fee and venue rental fee will probably cost 30,000 yuan!"
After Chu Tianyao finished speaking, the man with glasses almost had his eyes popping out.
"you……"
He wanted to continue talking, but the police had already lost patience.
"That's enough, I don't have time to accompany you to fool around here."
"Since both parties have a dispute about compensation, let's not talk about it."
"Either it's over and done with from now on, or you all come back to the bureau with me to record a confession!"
Chu Tianyao looked indifferent. Anyway, the store hadn't opened yet, so he would just go there.
But for men with glasses, doing so will only result in more losses than gains.
The fact that he is dressed so formally shows that he is currently at work.
If you are really arrested by the police, it will have a great impact on your career prospects.
So the man with eyes calmed down and snorted coldly.
"Okay, you have some talent!"
"Remember my name, my name is Dong Zhijie, and I am the manager of Menglong Cinema!"
"If you have the guts to open a store here in the future, don't fall into my hands!"
Dong Zhijie was about to leave after making harsh words, but Chu Tianyao continued to be unreasonable.
"I'm not interested in your name at all."
"I just want to thank you for telling me that the theater upstairs here is called Menglong Cinema."
"Go back and tell your boss, and within a week I will make him so anxious that he comes down to talk to me in person!"
Dong Zhijie wanted to say something else, but he saw a figure appearing upstairs.
He shook off his sleeves, turned around and left the scene.
After Dong Zhijie left, the police turned around and left, and the excitement dissipated.
Chu Tianyao carefully questioned the staff at the scene, and they restored the incident itself.
It turns out that when they were debugging the machine, vcd was a very novel thing to everyone passing by.
Many people stopped here because they didn't understand why a popular movie could appear on this small disc.
Dong Zhijie was the only one who, after watching for a while, made some mocking remarks.
He sneered and said that the people in the store were just daydreaming if they wanted to win over moviegoers through this.
Seeing that no one was paying attention, Dong Zhijie seemed to be losing face, so he poured the half-drunk milk tea over him.
"That guy had vicious intentions and threw it directly at our equipment!"
"Fortunately, I reacted in time and picked up the entire VCD equipment, and the milk tea spilled onto the wall."
After hearing this, Chu Tianyao naturally would not continue to blame his employees.
After all, these employees are the backbone of Chu Tianyao transferred from Xingyao Company's stores.
They are all well-trained, and Chu Tianyao has taught them that they must abide by the principles of harmony and wealth.
This time it was obviously Dong Zhijie who went too far, which triggered this conflict.
Long Si was also nearby and could hear clearly. In the end, he lowered his voice and said.
"Mr. Chu, do you want me to teach this guy a lesson in private?"
"He's a little too arrogant!"
Chu Tianyao smiled slightly when he heard this and shook his head.
"Dong Zhijie's behavior is indeed excessive, but there is no need for us to be angry."
"We haven't even opened yet, but our competitors are so angry. Doesn't that just show our potential?"
Chu Tianyao always looked at problems from a different perspective. After he finished speaking, Long Si and others were taught a lesson.
"Ignore these rhythms, let's continue to act as planned."
Chu Tianyao explained, everyone nodded, and then continued to debug the equipment.
In addition to arranging workers to repaint the contaminated walls, Chu Tianyao also got inspiration from it.
He decided that all major stores in the future would follow the example here and learn from the mobile phone store model.
Chu Tianyao stipulated that the first step is to complete the interior decoration.
After the decoration is completed, subsequent equipment debugging work must be carried out in front of the glass window.
It is necessary to attract every passer-by and let them gradually adopt this new concept.
Once people in Hong Kong slowly accept the simple and convenient method of vcd, Chu Tianyao is confident that this will be another subversion of the business community in Hong Kong!
At this time, Dong Zhijie had already arrived in the office on the top floor.
"Why did you have a conflict with someone just now?
Do you know who you represent?"
A middle-aged man sat opposite, looking at Dong Zhijie with a majestic face.
"Mr. Gan, I don't want to either, it's just that the guy who opened the new store is too arrogant."
"As the manager of Menglong Cinema, don't you even have this kind of tolerance?"
"Are you still quibbling?"
When the boss Gan Wenshan heard this, he glared fiercely.
"Boss, please listen to my explanation. The device called VCD that they debugged in the store can freely watch movies that are popular in theaters."
"I thought it was a threat, so I watched it for a while. As for the conflict with the other party, it was an accident..."
Although Dong Zhijie has a bad temper, he has a very keen sense of the market.
Otherwise, he would not have become the general manager of Menglong Cinema in his twenties.
It was Gan Wenshan who promoted him first, so Gan Wenshan had no doubts about Dong Zhijie's talent.
Dong Zhijie was present throughout the whole process from the beginning of debugging the equipment to the end.
After he restored the whole process, Gan Wenshan gradually became silent.
"According to what you said, if everyone buys this device in the future, no one will go out to watch movies?"
Gan Wenshan was stunned for a moment, and Dong Zhijie nodded quickly.
"Based on the current signs, it is indeed possible, mainly because the cost of those guys is too low!"
"I've made a calculation, take a look!"
Dong Zhijie calculated that the price of a movie ticket at Menglong Cinema now starts at eight yuan, and can go up to only thirty yuan.
For example, the price of a ticket for movies such as "Red Zone" and "Various Star King" that are currently popular in theaters is more than 20.
Looking at the entire Hong Kong city in terms of price, it is considered high-end consumption.
A family can go out to eat for less than a few dozen yuan, but if they want to watch a movie, they will spend hundreds of yuan in addition to the ticket price and drinks and popcorn.
In the past, they could be said to be in a monopoly position. If that kind of VCD was really allowed to develop, the consequences would be disastrous.
"What you said makes sense, but I don't think there's any need to make such a fuss."
"The Hong Kong film market has been developing for nearly thirty years. There have been many attempts to defeat us, but in the end we stood firm."
"There is no need to act rashly for the time being, but it is okay to observe secretly."
"I'll leave this matter to you."
Gan Wenshan thought about it in his mind and finally gave his own suggestion.
"Mr. Gan, I will definitely arrange for people to observe carefully, and be sure to send first-hand information every moment!"
Chu Tianyao's temporary decision can be said to be very successful in the future.
He even deliberately slowed down the overall debugging speed of the store downstairs of Menglong Cinema in order to keep all major stores in step.
Later, Chu Tianyao would go to the scene to supervise even if he had nothing to do. He found that the popularity of the scene was getting higher and higher.
This is a great blessing for Chu Tianyao.
A smile appeared on his face, and then he looked at Long Si.
"Get me a pair of sunglasses and a hat."
"No problem, there is something for sale nearby. Mr. Chu, what are you going to do?"
"Others have stepped into our territory, so why don't we reciprocate politely?"
Chu Tianyao pointed at the top of his head, and Long Si understood instantly.
Soon Long Si and Chu Tianyao went straight to the Menglong Cinema upstairs with their hats and sunglasses on the floor.
After arriving at Menglong Cinema, both Chu Tianyao and Long Si couldn't help but sigh.
If you don’t have colored glasses, this Menglong Cinema is indeed the paradise that every movie lover dreams of.
Whether it is the display of the entire theater or the popularity accumulated through years of operation, it is top-notch.
If Chu Tianyao wants to enter the film industry and compete with Menglong Cinema from scratch, it can be said that he will definitely fail.
Fortunately, Chu Tianyao found another more convenient and people-friendly runway. He believed that a mere Dream Dragon Cinema would definitely not be his opponent in the future.
"Let's go look at them separately and pay attention to the prices of the movies that are already on sale."
"Understood."
Long Si nodded, temporarily separated from Chu Tianyao, and then the two of them continued to visit the spots.
After walking around, Chu Tianyao found that the consumption in Menglong Cinema was not low at all.
Nowadays, the ticket prices for these popular theater movies are basically between 20 and 30 yuan.
Coupled with the various popcorn-like snacks and drinks here, the price will easily exceed 100.
Of course, rich people can enjoy the best services when they come here, but when poor people come here, they may have to think twice about paying for a movie ticket.
