Pei Qian was sitting in another corner, scrolling through his phone.
The two people actually knew each other, but at this time they had their own agendas and pretended to be strangers to each other.
Pei Qian doesn't intend to act rashly. He just needs to continue to show his wonderful acting skills and fool Li Shi, and then everything will be fine.
In the past few days, several nearby stores have continued to offer discounts. It can be clearly felt that the popularity of the street where Moyu Internet Cafe is located has increased a lot.
The small commercial area next to it usually doesn't have much traffic, but recently there has been an obvious traffic jam.
Many people came here because they heard that the stores nearby were holding sales. Even many people who had not planned to go out originally came out to take a stroll.
As a result, a quite beautiful scenery has been formed nearby. All the surrounding merchants are crowded with customers and there is a large flow of people. However, the entrance of Moyu Internet Cafe is deserted, forming a sharp contrast.
There were many people passing by who didn't know the truth. They subconsciously thought that Moyu Internet Cafe was also having a promotion. However, when they came in and asked, they found out that the prices here were many times more expensive than the surrounding shops. They were immediately scared off.
Pei Qian is still a little confused, isn't there a price sign at my door? Why do so many people come in and ask?
After thinking about it later, I realized that it was probably because these people were lucky and thought that all the nearby stores were having promotions, but Moyu Internet Cafe forgot to write it on the sign and had to come in and ask before they gave up.
Pei Qian asked Ma Yang to add three eye-catching characters on the sign: "No discount!"
So after a while, no one came to ask for prices anymore.
The situation of Moyu Internet cafes can be described in a poem: "The excitement is theirs, I have nothing."
And this is exactly the scene Pei Qian has dreamed of.
After confirming that there were no major problems with several games from Tenda, Pei Qian ran over here.
Sometimes when he happened to meet Li Shi, Pei Qian would act worried and extremely troubled.
Anyway, as long as Li Shi is suspended and nearby shops can continue to carry out promotional activities, and the customer flow of Moyu Internet Cafe is further cut off, then the losses in this cycle are very promising!
…
Li Shi drank silently and glanced secretly in the direction of Pei Qian.
Pei Qian didn't come to Internet cafes often before, so Li Shi didn't have many opportunities to observe.
Now, Li Shi could just take a closer look.
"Being a boss at such a young age obviously has many advantages."
"You are obviously very anxious inside, but you can still remain calm and only show a little bit... This kind of psychological quality is definitely beyond the reach of others."
"Not bad, it has further strengthened my idea of investing."
Li Shi's mentality is also undergoing a slight change.
The key to investment is to invest in people.
It’s not unusual for a company to hit a storm.
When faced with a storm, most companies will simply fall to their death, while a very small number of companies will fly.
The key to this lies in the boss of the company.
Li Shi does have money, but having money doesn't mean he has to roll up his sleeves and go into battle.
Li Shi is not good at managing Internet cafes. What he can provide is funds and connections. Specifically, the management and operation of Internet cafes still require specialized people to take charge.
Li Shi knew this very well. He not only took a fancy to the model of Moyu Internet Cafe, but also took a fancy to Pei Qian as a leader.
Therefore, Li Shicai hopes to invest in Moyu Internet Cafe instead of imitating his own Moyu Internet Cafe.
Trying to imitate a Moyu internet cafe by yourself is time-consuming, laborious and expensive, and you have to find someone to manage it yourself, so the price-performance ratio is very poor.
Investors like Li Shi would never roll up their sleeves and do such dirty work themselves.
What's more, in his opinion, he will succeed soon.
Li Shi took a sip of wine and savored it carefully.
“I still feel a little uneasy.”
"Did I overlook something?"
Li Shi thought about it carefully and found that there was indeed a doubt in this matter.
"According to common sense, Mr. Pei can achieve such results at such a young age, so he should be a very capable person."
"But he doesn't seem to doubt me until now? At least he hasn't shown it."
"This is unreasonable."
"Mr. Pei did not resist at all. He allowed the surrounding shops to cut off his customer flow, but did not let Moyu Internet Cafe make any changes."
"There were no discounts or promotions. We even wrote 'no discounts' on the sign at the door to dissuade customers who came to inquire about the price."
"Are you overconfident in Moyu Internet Cafe?"
"Have you given up resistance?"
"Or...do you have a back-up plan?"
Li Shi thought for a long time and finally shook his head.
"Huh, maybe I'm overthinking it. Most people would really be helpless in this situation."
"He cannot lower the price because a price war will damage the high-end image of Moyu Internet Cafe. In the long run, it will do more harm than good. This is indeed a very unsolvable matter."
"It's also possible that he did it on purpose?"
"No, no, no, that would be too unreasonable."
"Other stores can at least increase their reputation by burning money, but Moyu Internet Cafe is just burning money now. He is crazy to survive in such a situation with no profit."
"Unless he has some back-up plans that even I can't see through..."
"Forget it, it's probably because I'm overthinking it. What tricks can a young man do?"
Thinking about it at the end, Li Shi even laughed.
Mr. Pei did not act according to common sense, which made Li Shi a little unpredictable, so he inadvertently overestimated.
Li Shi thought for a while, he had been in the investment circle for so many years, what kind of big storms had he not seen?
Even if this Pei is always a genius, he is still a young man with little experience. It would be meaningless to overestimate him.
After finishing his glass of wine, Li Shi was ready to leave.
Today is Sunday night, and Moyu Internet Cafe is still deserted with no one coming. It can be said that the overall situation has been decided, and there is no need for him to keep an eye on it.
Go back and play for a few days, wait patiently, maybe you can open the champagne to celebrate soon.
Just then, Pei Qian's cell phone rang.
Li Shi just wanted to stand up, but stopped again.
Although he didn't think he could hear any confidential information on this phone call, there was no harm in listening.
Pei Qian was also a little surprised. Who was calling so late at night?
At first glance, it was Huang Sibo.
When he thought that Huang Sibo almost screwed himself up again by filming "Butterfly", Pei Qian instinctively didn't want to take it, but then he thought about it, this time Huang Sibo at least lost money on the surface and left himself a
Da Cao can be regarded as a meritorious minister.
Then just take it.
"Mr. Pei!"
"Do you have a TV over there? Watch Magic City TV!"
Pei Qian was puzzled: "What's wrong?"
Huang Sibo: "Don't ask, just turn on Shanghai TV and you will know! Congratulations in advance, Mr. Pei!"
