Ma Yang scratched his head: "Fresh air system? What is that?"
"Ask Qiandu." Pei Qian didn't explain any more and first turned on the computer to play "Sea Fortress".
The fresh air system appeared very early. Europe had formulated detailed standards around 2000 and was gradually used on a large scale in homes and businesses.
Domestic fresh air systems and air purifiers became popular only after the smog broke out. By about 2014, most people knew about this thing.
Most of the current fresh air systems are from foreign brands and are extremely expensive.
But in Pei Qian's view, being expensive is not their shortcoming, but rather their advantage!
After downloading "Sea Fortress", Pei Qian briefly played it.
It is indeed a high-end computer, and the gaming experience is outstanding!
After entering the game, all settings are adjusted to the highest level without any thought, ensuring the ultimate visual experience!
This computer is excellent in every way and has no shortcomings except for one flaw.
If you lose in a game, you can't take the blame!
Why is my mouse beeping, my keyboard keys are stuck, my computer is stuck, my monitor is black, my headphones are leaking...
They won't appear at all.
If the game is not played well, there is no way to blame it on the computer. You can only blame yourself for playing poorly!
This should also be a disadvantage for some people, right?
I played two battle modes and was tortured like a dog.
I opened the biochemical mode twice more and was still tortured into a dog.
Just play the story mode.
"Sure enough, a smart person like me can't play a game like this that relies entirely on reaction. Story mode is more fun."
Pei Qian sighed while playing the story mode.
This fucking game is actually made by me!
I don’t know what happened to Huang Sibo and Bao Xu.
Pei Qian was playing when Zhang Yuan brought him a glass of wine.
The cup is not big, but the wine inside is very bright. The lower part is dark red and the upper part is apple green. The two colors gradually blend in the middle of the transparent glass, which looks quite cool.
Pei Qian's first feeling was that it was very mysterious!
After taking a bite, the taste was very special, hard to describe, but deeply memorable.
"What is this wine called?" Pei Qian asked.
Zhang Yuan answered truthfully: "Mr. Pei, this is a type of Northern Lights cocktail. Ordinary Northern Lights cocktails only have fluorescent effects in the dark. This one has slightly changed the formula, and the color looks more natural."
"Not bad, how much is it?" Pei Qian asked again.
Zhang Yuan: “50 yuan a cup.”
Probably because he was afraid that Pei Qian would find it too expensive, Zhang Yuan quickly added: "There is grappa here. A bottle of 700 ml costs 400 yuan. This cup requires 30 ml."
“There are also cheaper versions where vodka can be used instead of grappa.”
"Oh." Pei Qian nodded, "So, how much is the cheapest cocktail on the menu?"
Zhang Yuan thought for a while: "The cheapest one... is about 25 yuan. Bars are basically the same price."
These are the prices in 2010, they are not cheap anymore.
A glass of wine is worth two meals for many students.
Moreover, Internet cafes and bars target different customer groups.
"How about Mr. Pei, is this price okay? If it's too expensive, you can lower it a bit."
drop?
Or rise?
If the price drops, the profit from a glass of wine will be reduced. But what if other people come to drink because the wine here is cheap?
Isn't that just small profits but quick turnover in disguise?
Can't drop!
Although the current price of wine is not cheap, Pei Qian thought about it and there should be room for a price increase!
Pei Qian made up his mind: "Add ten yuan to each cup! Our customers are all high-quality customers. If the price is low, we are looking down on others!"
"Ah?" Zhang Yuan was a little confused.
"That's it, we'll add ten yuan to each glass of wine."
Pei Qian drank the cocktail happily and continued playing games.
Zhang Yuan naturally didn't ask any more questions and continued to work.
Pei Qian played for a while and was very satisfied.
It’s not that I’m satisfied with the environment, but mainly that I’m satisfied with the consumption!
After calculation, after playing for two hours and drinking a cocktail, the total cost was 80 yuan.
This amount of money is enough to stay overnight in an ordinary Internet cafe for a week!
This directly shuts out the current mainstream customer groups of Internet cafes.
Of course, Pei Qian also knows that this high-end Internet cafe model will gradually become mainstream in six or seven years.
But it doesn’t matter, it’s okay as long as it’s not mainstream now?
What's more, even Internet cafes six or seven years later will not sell cocktails for 60 yuan a cup!
Lose money! Let’s wait four to five years before losing money.
How nice!
Pei Qian stood up and prepared to leave.
Ma Yang came over and asked: "Brother Qian, we plan to open the day after tomorrow. Look at the opening ceremony, the grand opening bonus and so on... What should we do? I plan to board the plane at half price and drink at half price for the first three days. How about this discount?
?”
Half price for the first three days?
Half price drinks?
Nononono, absolutely not!
If you become famous all of a sudden, what's the point?
Pei Qian shook his head violently: "No, that's tacky! We are high-end Internet cafes, do you understand?"
"We will open the business normally, and we won't engage in those frivolous activities. The wine will be delicious no matter how deep the alley is. We have such a good environment, why are we worried about not having any customers?"
"Half price, why are we so busy? We can't give people the feeling that this is a vegetable market!"
"Okay, let's not do it then..." Ma Yang didn't feel serious, but he knew that what he heard from Pei Qian was correct.
Pei Qian left Moyu Internet Cafe with satisfaction and prepared to come back on the opening day.
Pei Qian will be completely relieved when he sees the Internet cafe Liangliang with his own eyes on the opening day!
…
…
March 9.
Moyu Internet Cafe is officially opened!
There is no grand opening reward, no fireworks, firecrackers, banners, nothing!
Everything is business as usual.
There are no Chinese characters on the Internet cafe's front face, just a big logo. It does look stylish, but it does not help everyone know that this is a place where you can surf the Internet.
Fortunately, this two-story building has many curtain walls, and you can clearly see the coffee area and game area inside through the curtain walls during the day.
But even so, it's still a bit too low-key.
Zhang Yuan was waiting at the bar, wanting to wait for the customers to come and show off his fancy bartending skills.
As a result, after waiting for a long time, a few passers-by passed by. At most, they only poked their heads in to take a look, without even thinking about coming in.
The cold wind outside is very effective in persuading people to retreat.
Pei Qian was sitting in the coffee area, drinking coffee happily, looking at the empty Internet cafe, the smile on his lips gradually grew stronger, and then he tried hard to suppress it.
Ma Yang was not as calm as him, obviously he couldn't sit still.
"Brother Qian, let them go out and distribute a leaflet..."
"They" refers to the recruited network administrators.
He is said to be a network manager, but in fact he wears many hats, including serving tea and serving water as a waiter.
Pei Qian rejected all the opening bonus activities that Ma Yang had thought of before.
Pei Qian's reason is to have a normal mind!
It’s boring for a fancy place like ours to offer such a tacky grand opening bonus!
The result is that the opening is silent and no one cares about it...
Pei Qian calmly took a sip of coffee: "What kind of flyers are you sending out? What's so cool about it? It's just about letting customers discover it inadvertently. That's called a surprise!"
"For customers to discover accidentally...?"
Ma Yang vaguely felt that there was something wrong with this statement, but for a moment it seemed that he had no way to refute it...
