July 13, morning.
Moyu Internet Cafe Flagship Store.
Li Shi sat in the corner, drinking coffee quietly.
"It's a lot more lively here, but... I still prefer the way it was before."
Li Shi sighed softly. He didn't know that he and Pei Qian had reached a consensus on this point.
Although the last confrontation with Mr. Pei ended in a complete defeat, Li Shi was frustrated and did not come to the Fishing Internet Cafe for more than a week, but he was still a little unwilling and hoped to regain his place in the future.
Moreover, it has become a habit to come to Moyu Internet Cafe and have a drink or two when you have nothing to do.
Therefore, Li Shi came to the Moyu Internet Cafe flagship store again today to see what the store is like now.
The first impression is that there have indeed been more customers.
He knew that it would be very lively here at night, so he specially chose a Tuesday morning to come here.
Unexpectedly, even on a weekday morning, there are many customers here.
Some people are reading quietly and drinking coffee in the coffee area, some are posing for photos, and some are surfing the Internet.
Business looks good.
Daily revenue, plus a share of the drinks from the singer’s reward in the evening...
Li Shi estimates that most Moyu Internet Cafe flagship stores now have to make a profit. It’s hard to say how much they will make, but they will definitely make a profit.
However, he personally still prefers the previous Moyu Internet Cafe.
It's very quiet, no one disturbs me.
Of course, today's Moyu Internet cafes are not so lively and annoying, but they are not as quiet as before.
Li Shi took another sip of coffee, inexplicably feeling that something was missing.
Mr. Pei is not here, which is normal.
But where are the long-faced ones and the regional manager who has been following the long-faced ones?
Li Shi often came to the Moyu Internet Cafe flagship store before, and he would meet these two people every time, as if he was a permanent resident of this flagship store.
But today, both of them are not here.
"strangeness."
"It stands to reason that this store's business is so good, shouldn't it be more important to keep an eye on it?"
Li Shi has also roughly observed the changes in Moyu Internet Cafe in the past few days.
The flagship store really became popular because of Chen Lei, and it became an internet celebrity store. Many people came to check in and make purchases, and the customer flow was very large.
However, the other chain stores of Moyu Internet Cafe have not changed much. Although the traffic flow has also increased and the income has also increased, they are not comparable to the flagship stores.
It is reasonable to speculate that although these branches can recover some losses, they should not be able to turn losses into profits.
At this time, shouldn’t we focus on flagship stores and promote the experience of flagship stores to other branches?
Why are these two people gone?
Li Shi raised his hand slightly, and the waiter next to him immediately understood and came to his table.
"Can I help you with anything?" the waiter asked with a smile.
After all, Li Shi is a regular customer of Moyu Internet Cafe and spends a lot of money here. The waiter naturally knows this big customer and his service attitude is very good.
Li Shi put on a nonchalant look and asked, "Your boss, Ma, didn't come today?"
The waiter smiled and said, "Yes, Mr. Ma hasn't been here for a while, it's been almost a week."
Li Shi was stunned.
One week?
That is to say, the flagship store of Moyu Internet Cafe exploded in popularity. After the busiest period of time, after the customer flow in the flagship store stabilized, Big Face never came again.
It stands to reason that the flagship store has a store manager, and the long-faced one can really leave it alone.
But after all, Big Face and the others are the management above the store manager. If they are not in this store, they must have moved to another store.
What did they go to do?
There's probably something fishy here.
Li Shi smiled at the waiter: "It's okay, I'll just ask."
…
Two hours later.
Li Shi glanced at his phone, which contained a message from his subordinate.
"Mr. Li, I found out, it's at the Mingyun Villa store."
Li Shi was a little surprised when he saw this message.
But after thinking about it, I quickly understood.
Obviously, the two men with big faces saw that the Moyu Internet Cafe flagship store was popular, so they shifted their goals to other branches for the next stage!
Although Li Shi looked down on Ma Yang's long face and thought he was a bit stupid, he did not dare to look down upon him.
After all, Mr. Pei's instructions must be behind every move Ma Yang makes!
After what happened last time, Li Shi no longer dared to look down on Mr. Pei because of his age and qualifications.
He knew that although Mr. Pei looked young and acted contrary to common sense, he had extremely clear and long-term plans, and he always had a backup plan!
Last time, Li Shi suffered a big loss because he underestimated Mr. Pei.
He gently rubbed his chin, thinking about the whole matter.
"Mr. Pei must have noticed my behavior last time."
"The big face disclosed false information to me, which must have been the secret instruction of Mr. Pei."
"Sure enough, although Da Long Lian is stupid, he is loyal enough to Mr. Pei. I am indeed stupid to want to open a gap with Da Long Lian."
"This is also very reasonable. If the long-faced man is not loyal to Mr. Pei, how can he win Mr. Pei's favor and hold a high position?"
"This time, we must not make the same mistake again."
"The long-faced man no longer comes to the flagship store, but is permanently stationed at the Mingyun Villa store. This most likely indicates that Mr. Pei's next plan is in that area!"
Li Shi did not follow his previous wishful thinking and thought about acquiring Moyu Internet Cafe.
He knows very well that Moyu Internet Cafe is now booming and the brand has been built so well that it is basically impossible to invest.
Li Shi's interest in Moyu Internet Cafe faded, but his interest in Mr. Pei was not.
Since the last incident, Li Shi's evaluation of Mr. Pei has continued to rise, and he even thinks that he can be regarded as a visionary entrepreneur in the entire Jingzhou City.
With such an awesome person by your side, you should naturally pay close attention to every move he makes.
What business opportunities might we find?
It's the same this time. Li Shi's investigation of Moyu Internet Cafe Mingyun Villa is not for investment or acquisition, but mainly because he is very curious about Mr. Pei's next move.
Open the map on your phone and take a rough look.
Li Shi frowned.
I don't quite understand what's going on in this place.
The so-called "Mingyun Villa" is actually a high-end residential area on the outskirts of Jingzhou, mainly composed of single-family villas.
But there is a little problem with the planning of this place.
Mingyun Villa is located in the southeast of Jingzhou City, surrounded by mountains and rivers, with beautiful scenery.
But there are two big problems in this villa area.
First, the surrounding supporting facilities are not good. It is okay to buy it and stay there for a couple of days occasionally, but it is not suitable for long-term living and makes life a little inconvenient.
Second, there is a big problem with the developer's strategy. They built it entirely according to high-end villas. The average price is much higher than other villas in Jingzhou City, but their marketing capabilities are not strong and there is not enough hype.
Therefore, almost a year after it was built, the occupancy rate is still not high.
As for the location of the Moyu Internet Cafe in Mingyun Villa, Li Shi felt completely confused.
This Internet cafe was not located near Mingyun Villa. Instead, it was some distance away from the residential area of ​​Mingyun Villa and the nearby East Campus of Handong Jiaotong University.
