If a newly formed gang wants to start in an already saturated industry and compete with established gangs, it will inevitably choose the most direct violent means to forcefully open the market. This is a manifestation of the law of the jungle.
I said this is the choice of most gangsters, but my thinking is exactly the opposite. Our reputation is already fucked. If we encounter any difficulties, we will use a blade or a military bayonet. In the words of Ge You,
...it’s immature to fight and kill!
You have to have a far-sighted vision. Most of the people we work with are conscientious businessmen. If you do it too bloody, it will scare away a group of people who can really help you make money! I like Dai Fatty's way of dealing with people.
, he has been around for so many years, and he is still working in nightclubs, but it is said that he has never had sex with anyone for real, and has never been to jail. In the early 1990s, most people started by relying on blood.
The world of Jianghu is simply awesome.
But I think this way, but others don't think so. There are always those who hold a broken knife all day long and dare to scold the world for being unkind. They think that the Jade Emperor Haotian is a sissy. If Sun Wukong can do it to him, so can I.
Huo Yong is such a person who cannot face others and has never seen himself clearly.
He keeps trying to find trouble, always...
…
I still don't know Huo Yong's attitude at the moment. For three days in a row, I was busy with things in the beer square.
None of our group has much education. I, who only went to high school, have been forced into the position of military advisor. For this reason, Lao Xian, who has just been discharged from the hospital, is very dissatisfied. He said that people like him are research-oriented people.
, I’m really sorry for not being a modern version of Zhuge. He has a great resume as a study committee member in the first grade of elementary school! After he finished speaking, almost no one paid any attention to him, because everyone knew that the head teacher of his elementary school was his second aunt...
…
The first shareholder meeting of Oriental Event Music and Beer Plaza was successfully held next to Shi Zhuozi under the willow tree in my house. The main participants included Li Hao who had just gotten off work and had not eaten yet, Ning Hai who had not slept well for several days in a row, and who was flirting with his wife
Menmen, Lao Xian who has not recovered from his injuries but has not stopped him from pursuing happiness, Li Shuishui, the most sinister person on Railway Street, who is serving tea and pouring water with a smile, and Ma Xiaoyou who keeps looking askance at my anus while sitting in the room putting on makeup.
.
I was responsible for speaking, and Huzi listened and took notes. The main discussion content of the meeting was a marketing discussion centering on how to open up sales in beer plazas.
"Ahem, let me say something! The market for backends is basically saturated, and conventional methods of play can no longer compete with these old guys. Let me explain my ideas. First, one week is free, and two weeks are free.
Rent at half price, no matter you are selling sausages or making skewers, as long as you have your own tools and can maintain food hygiene, you can work with us!! Payment will be made after two weeks, the first five
Shop, enjoy a 20% discount, and get twenty boxes of beer for free!!" I quickly told everyone the method I had thought of in my head.
Everyone fell into deep thought after hearing my words.
"Nannan! Have you ever thought about it, if business is not good in the past two weeks, we will lose money and our reputation will be ruined!" Ning Hai asked me.
"If no one praises it, how can the reputation come from?! Just relying on your two barbecue friends, the place will definitely not be popular. This is a question of whether you have confidence in the prospect and location. I feel that we are here and want to make money
It shouldn't be difficult to count money. Next to us is Parkson Mall. After five o'clock in the evening, people watching movies and shopping start to come in and out. As long as they are walking, they all pass by our place. Behind us is the night market, a paradise for cheap labor.
, those who move bricks, those who ride tricycles, and those who buy some daily necessities in the evening, all the people leaving after coming out are from our side! These people all have the possibility of consumption!" I looked at several people seriously and said.
When Ning Hai heard what I said, he couldn't help but nodded, feeling that what I said was really not nonsense.
"Fuck, there are so many JB kebabs, why do people come to your house to eat them??" Lao Xian curled his lips and asked a very crucial topic.
"You have been confused for more than twenty years in your life, and you finally understand it now!" I gave him an appreciative look without hesitation, and then said: "Do you know why it is called the Oriental Festival "Music" Beer Plaza?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard my question.
"Peng!"
I held the table with both hands, glanced at everyone with blazing eyes, licked my lips and said, "Our main consumption power is mainly young people. After receiving couples watching movies, in the evening we will receive young people who go out to rent a room with guests after work.
.Sister!! The old fairy asked, there are so many food stalls in the city, why do people come to your place to eat? I tell you, I want to use the open-air bar and music and beer festival as the selling point, and use the city’s small restaurants
The famous duo turned singers will perform as a warm-up show, and the atmosphere of the bar will be enhanced by the Oriental event! Make an Oriental Scala where you can watch the light rain and listen to the music, and become the first cultural beer plaza in this city!"
"... Gosh, this is a cool idea!! Why does Scala sell the same things as other bars, but its annual turnover is tens of millions? In fact, the difference is in the atmosphere. Music drives the atmosphere, and beer is
It stimulates impulsive consumption! If the two are linked together, then it’s fucking money!” Ning Hai agreed very much with my idea.
"Travel to China, I think it's okay!" Menmen nodded seriously.
"Then who will pay for the additional expenses for hiring singers and actors? Should the merchants share it equally, or should we do it ourselves?" Lao Xian was really a bit serious today, and if asked, he was quite competent.
"Let's do it ourselves!" I said.
"A two-person actor is not an expert. One performance costs four hundred for two hours. You have to arrange three performances a day, which is one thousand and two. The price of a singer is more expensive than that of a two-person actor. It is calculated as three performances a day, at least one
One thousand and five! This day is two thousand seven. If we pay this money ourselves, it will be seventy or eighty thousand a month, which is equivalent to a small stall. We rent it out for a year. If calculated on an annual basis, we will only pay for this one item.
A year means there are ten stalls that are not profitable!! Isn’t this less stressful?” Lao Xian frowned and asked me calmly.
"...You are so disappointing!" Menmen, who was very excited at first, suddenly became weak when he heard what he said.
"What I said is the truth!!" Lao Xian spread his hands and said.
"We'll pay for it in the early stage. If the business is booming, is it possible to collect performance sponsorship fees from the shops?" Li Hao also interjected.
"The only thing we are missing now is that we have limited funds for the early consumption here. It will get cold soon. We definitely can't just use greenhouses in winter. At least we need to build some iron houses or something like that. This will be another big deal then.
Money, so you have to know how to spend money!" Ning Hai answered.
I listened to these people chattering and writing, thought for a moment, and said directly: "I still have 60,000 yuan in hand. I will bear the cost of the actors in the early stage. It is lent to the beer plaza, and it will be calculated at 5 cents. In the later stage,
I will take out the profit. If I lose it, I will lose it. I have no complaints! If you want to enter this industry, don’t be afraid of the wolf in front of you and the tiger in the back! We won’t discuss this matter anymore, it’s decided like this!”
"Are you so confident?" Lao Xian knew very well how much I valued money. He was very surprised that I could shell out these 60,000 yuan.
"I'm not confident. I just want to see if I can do it and give it a try!" I replied expressionlessly.
“Have courage!”
"Brother Nan, I just like the man you are!"
"Brother Nan, please save your money. We all know that it's not easy for you to make money. You are already the boss, and you were selling shit last night. Who can be as dedicated as you?!" The old immortal didn't know who to listen to.
It was a rumor that someone with a nose and eyes said.
"I can prove that this is true!" Ma Xiaoyou said rather meanly as he walked past a few of us, carrying a small bag.
"I'll fucking kiss you forcibly!!"
I grabbed her, but I was a step too late, and she ran away in a flash.
The basic strategy has been decided, everyone breaks up the meeting and leaves.
…
Early the next morning, Lao Xian and I went to the housing agency to sign a contract with Parkson people and paid one year's rent. At noon, the decoration team contacted by Ninghai had already arrived and started building a shed for performances and a large shed to protect against rain.
.
On the other side, Shuishui and Menmen went to buy a batch of 80% new tables, chairs, and benches. They found a moving company and brought back two large cars.
At around two o'clock in the afternoon, the hottest time of the day arrived. It was like a fire was falling from the sky, and it was extremely hot and muggy.
Lao Xian and I were sitting on the steps of the square, looking at the busy crowd below, and we were very excited.
After so many years of doing nothing, I finally did something of my own, regardless of whether we made money or not. In short, our life is much more practical now. At this moment, I have no regrets about rejecting the invitation of Fa Ge and Dai Fatty! It’s better to give to anyone than to do it for anyone.
Feel comfortable doing it yourself.
"How is things going between you and that Xiaoxiao?" I was in a good mood today, so I took the initiative to ask about Lao Xian's love.
"I always feel that she feels guilty towards me because of what happened at Candy Yiren's door, that's why her attitude towards me has changed so much!" Lao Xian sighed and said a bit hypocritically.
"Why do you care if she feels guilty? It's fine as long as she's with you!" I said speechlessly.
"Fuck, if we sleep together while making firewood and then sleep with you, how can we feel the same if we sleep with you fucking raping someone else?" Lao Xian was a little anxious that I didn't understand his inner feelings.
"...Brother, with your long face, can we stop thinking about having sex?? I guess you go to a school for the blind and find a blind girl, she can have sex with you, shit!" I was so broken.
"Stop talking. In fact, I know that you are just jealous of me... Nannan, we are brothers. No matter how handsome I am, can I still date An'an? Let me tell you, you are thinking too much...!"
The old immortal patted my shoulder and said very seriously.
"...I've decided!! I'm going to build a haunted house at the entrance of the beer plaza!! You will be the leading actor, and you will play the wealthy man from Stephen Chow's The Deer and the Cauldron!!" I really couldn't stand him anymore, so I stood up.
About to leave.
"Brother Nan, actually I want to play Duolong!" Lao Xian patted his butt and shouted behind me.
"……Hold!!"
I immediately quickened my pace, but just as I was about to move forward, I suddenly saw several workers building the stage next to a Toyota bread, cursing and saying something.
