Chapter 1356 Brother Bao, you have to increase the price!
After thinking about her words, Min Jingchao dialed Bao Xu's phone number.
"Brother Bao, how are you doing lately? Are you busy?" Min Jingchao asked cautiously.
“It’s okay, I’m a little busy, but it’s very fulfilling!”
"What, do you want to support my work?"
On the other end of the phone, Bao Xu was obviously a little surprised.
Because since he became the person in charge of the suffering trip, these old friends are full of fear of him, and the number of phone calls has also plummeted. It seems that they are afraid that if they contact him, they will remind Bao Xu that he is such a big person.
, was arranged to go on a new journey of suffering.
In this regard, Bao Xu wanted to express his injustice.
The list of suffering trips was all decided by Mr. Pei, and I didn’t participate at all!
Of course, if Bao Xu were to decide this list, he might be even more crazy, but now, after all, the blame still belongs to Mr. Pei.
After Min Jingchao went to Yangcheng, he never called, so it was a bit suspicious to call him now.
Min Jingchao hurriedly said: "Support your work? Oh no, no, no, Brother Bao, you misunderstood. No, it's not actually a misunderstanding."
"It's like this. My new colleague at Tianhuo Studio is more interested in suffering travel, so he asked me to find out some information from you."
In order not to get burned, Min Jingchao had no choice but to make friends out of thin air.
But this also seems more real. After all, Bao Xu knows very well that Min Jingchao himself must be afraid of the painful journey. If someone from Tianhuo Studio who doesn't know the inside story is asking, it will appear more reasonable. This helps
Min Jingchao hides his true intentions.
As expected, Bao Xu had no doubts, but was very happy: "Really? If you have anything you want to ask, just ask, and tell your new colleagues that registration for Suffering Travel will be open soon. You are welcome to participate!"
"They are all acquaintances, easy to talk to and discuss. I will definitely take care of you when you come here!"
"Ahem." Min Jingchao coughed twice, feeling that Bao Xu's personality had changed dramatically after his complete blackening, and he was no longer the same person at all.
"Actually, they have a little understanding of the content of daily training, but what they are most concerned about right now is the price issue."
"What are the specific charges for this suffering trip?"
Bao Xu said: "Currently, there is a rough charging plan internally for Suffering Travel, but it has not yet been announced to the public."
"After the official opening of Suffering Travel, each period will last for two months, one month for indoor training at the base, and another month for traveling. The conditions for food and accommodation must be in place, plus air tickets and various travel expenses.
expenses, the auxiliary cooperation of professional staff, and some hidden costs, such as the designation of scientific training programs and logistics support teams..."
"Currently, suffering travels are all in China, and the charging standard for each person is 35,000. This is the price after suffering travels have negotiated an agreement with the relevant merchants and kept profits as low as possible."
"However, each period of travel will go to different places, and the prices will definitely change. If you want to go abroad, the cost of air tickets, food and accommodation will all increase, and the prices will definitely increase accordingly."
"Suffering Travel also has plans to establish an outdoor special training base. If it can be formed, the price should be able to be reduced further."
“But it generally fluctuates around this price.”
Min Jingchao thoughtfully said: "Well, thirty-five thousand..."
How can I say this price? It's expensive, but it's not expensive either. The key is to see how it compares.
To say it's not expensive, it lasts for two months after all.
Like some European group tours, the price for two weeks is around 30,000 yuan.
As for some domestic attractions, based on the tour price of about 2,000 for five days, it would cost more than 20,000 to visit for two months.
Not to mention those low-price tour groups that are particularly deceptive. They more or less induce consumption. They are quite deceptive and the experience will definitely not be good.
The food and accommodation conditions arranged by Tenda are definitely better, and the fees for the training content must also be taken into consideration. After all, the fee for personal training in the gym is two to three hundred an hour, and the suffering travel also teaches rock climbing and various wilderness survival skills.
The price of thirty-five thousand can roughly confirm two things.
First of all, Bao Xu definitely has not considered making more money. The current pricing is simply not to lose money, or not to lose too much.
This may be because of President Pei's instruction, or it may be that Bao Xu himself wants to lower some prices to attract more people to suffer and achieve his ulterior motives.
Secondly, the standard of food and accommodation should be high-quality, but also have a certain cost-effectiveness, and should not be thoughtlessly arranged in five-star hotels or the like.
After all, you have to suffer when traveling.
Bao Xu must have felt that rest should be ensured for all group members, but it should not be too extravagant or wasteful, as this would go against the original intention of the journey.
In Bao Xu's own view, this was obviously a price of breaking bones and vomiting blood.
And for those who are not interested in suffering travel at all, this price is not affordable.
Thirty-five thousand, wouldn't it be nice to go abroad and have fun? Why go to the mountains and ravines to suffer?
And another very important factor is time.
After a two-month hard trip, which office worker can take a two-month vacation?
People who have a lot of time often don't have money, and the fee of 35,000 is even more unbearable.
So when seeing this price, most netizens will definitely say "excuse me".
Of course, Min Jingchao definitely does not view this price from the above two perspectives.
What he had to consider was whether the price of thirty-five thousand per person would be painful for Zhou Muyan?
Hmm... It may hurt, but it may not 100% make Zhou Muyan give up.
After all, after the project is successful, Tianhuo Studio will distribute bonuses to everyone, which may be tens of thousands of dollars.
Judging from Zhou Muyan's concern for suffering travel, with a mere price of thirty-five thousand per person, it would be a bit difficult to get him to change his mind.
Therefore, we still have to find a way to fool Bao Xu and let him raise the price!
Min Jingchao had already thought about his words in advance: "Brother Bao, I think...oh no, my colleagues think that this pricing is not very good, and it will dampen their enthusiasm for participation."
Bao Xu was a little surprised: "Huh? How could that happen?"
"The price is already very low. If nothing else, even if you take a rock climbing lesson with a private teacher, it will cost 200, right? Although that is one-on-one, and mine is one-to-many, but considering all the various
In terms of logistical support and other expenses, it is difficult for this price to be lowered..."
Min Jingchao hurriedly said: "Brother Bao, listen to me. I'm not saying this price is expensive, but this price is too cheap!"
Bao Xu: "Ah?"
Min Jingchao explained: "Brother Bao, who are the employees at Tianhuo Studio? Although the overall benefits are not as good as those at Tengda, every one of their employees is well paid!"
"Once a project is completed, the monthly bonus will be tens of thousands. To them, two months is much more valuable than the 30,000 yuan!"
"Your price of thirty-five thousand is obviously not close to each other."
"For people who don't have money, they are exhausted from working hard every day. How can they have the leisure and money to suffer? For such people, even if you lower the price to 20,000, they will not come."
"For rich people, they are willing to spend two months to suffer. Is the price different between 35,000 and 50,000? The key is that you have to provide people with good enough services to make them happy.
They feel that they have gained a lot in these two months and have irreplaceable value."
"The service you are providing now may seem good to ordinary people, but in the eyes of these people, it is probably not enough."
"When people hear that it's only 35,000 for two months, they think that they won't be able to arrange any interesting special content. It's not cool at all. They might as well fly to Europe to take photos and post them on social media."
Bao Xu was silent for a moment and asked tentatively: "So you mean... the price has to be increased?"
Min Jingchao nodded: "Yes, the price must increase! And it must increase a little more!"
"I think it's more appropriate to increase it to 50,000 per person!"
Fifty thousand is not a small number, it is less than half a year's salary for many working-class people.
Moreover, after the increase to 50,000 yuan, there is a clear gap between the cost of ordinary travel and tourism.
For Zhou Muyan, he can definitely still afford the money, but in his opinion, the cost-effectiveness will probably become very poor.
Just like when many people are consuming, for the same product, if the price is reduced by 500, it will be really fragrant, and if the price is increased by 500, it will smell bad.
Bao Xu thought for a moment and said: "But the services we currently provide should not reach the level of 50,000."
"In other words, the content of the service needs to be slightly upgraded? For example, add some suffering items?"
Hearing this, Min Jingchao shuddered a little.
Good guy, are you adding suffering items?
You must not let others know that it was me who suggested this matter, otherwise I will be doomed!
But now that the conversation has come to this, Min Jingchao can only say: "You should consider this yourself."
He didn't really want Bao Xu to "upgrade the service," but it didn't make sense not to upgrade the service after the price increase.
Bao Xu was silent for a while, then he seemed to have figured it out and said happily: "Thank you, this proposal is very inspiring to me, I will seriously consider it!"
"Thank your colleagues for me. When they come to participate in the suffering trip, I can directly give them a huge internal discount!"
Min Jingchao said in his heart hehe.
Those colleagues of mine? Sorry, they are determined not to go.
Seeing that the price is so high, Zhou Muyan will probably choose other alternatives. Then everyone will be happy: the colleagues of the "Bullet Marks 2" project team happily traveled with pay, escaping the bad luck of suffering in the past.
"Okay, Brother Bao, then you go do your business first, and we'll talk later."
After hanging up the phone, Min Jing took a deep breath.
Half of the work is done, the next step is to find Zhou Muyan to complete the other half.
After the lunch break, Min Jingchao came to Zhou Muyan to report on the development progress as usual.
After the report, Min Jingchao pretended to accidentally mention something about suffering travel.
"By the way, Mr. Zhou, when I was chatting with my friends from Tengda, I found out about the prices at Suffering Travel."
Zhou Muyan was originally looking at the plan, but he immediately raised his head: "Oh? How much is it?"
Min Jingchao said: "Each person should be worth more than 50,000."
"Hiss..." Zhou Muyan couldn't help but frown slightly and took a breath of cold air.
Fifty thousand each?
Then this is a bit too much.
Although Zhou Muyan is very satisfied with the content of the suffering trip, how much money does it cost to practice rock climbing and survive in the wild in a venue?
It seems that if you use this money to organize your employees to travel by yourself, you can have better fun.
Zhou Muyan frowned and said, "It's a bit expensive. I think it's acceptable if the price is around 30,000."
"How about... you discuss it with Sun Xi and let's find another plan?"
Min Jingchao was simply overjoyed, but she couldn't show it too obviously and tried to stay calm: "Well, of course we are all fine. We will follow your arrangements, Mr. Zhou."
Zhou Muyan said: "Okay, then I'll find someone to look at other alternatives, whether it's paid travel or paid vacation. Anyway, I'll consider it again."
"Besides, Suffering Travel is not in a hurry to deny it. It's because the price hasn't been announced yet."
"Of course I can trust your information, but the price hasn't been set yet, and it might change."
Min Jingchao couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. The price would indeed change, but Bao Xu had obviously been deceived by him. Even if it changed, it would only be higher, not lower.
Okay, the escape from suffering travel plan has been a huge success so far!
