Xi Hao simply explained a few words and went about his own business.
Mr. Qiu didn't say much about this inspection, and didn't even ask them to prepare in advance.
Xi Hao subconsciously wanted to prepare, but when he thought about it carefully, what should he prepare?
Everyone is usually in good working condition, has a positive attitude, and is full of emotions. The development progress of each project is relatively smooth. Even if the progress of some projects is not smooth, it is because they have better ideas to make changes to the development plan.
Revise.
In short, in Xi Hao's opinion, the working condition of this incubation base is perfect and there is nothing to hide.
The only problem may be that I don’t work overtime, which makes me seem less diligent, but Mr. Qiu has never advocated overtime. Since Mr. Qiu doesn’t advocate it, then the leaders who came to inspect should not advocate it either, right?
So Xi Hao didn't arrange for everyone to make surprise preparations. He looked around and found that the independent game producers and administrative department employees were working hard, so he felt relieved.
Most of this inspection was just a formality. The inspection leader came around, asked a few random questions, and put forward some innocuous opinions and suggestions, and that was it.
…
At 2:30 p.m., Qiu Hong led Tang Yishu to the independent game incubation base of "Jiutu Project".
The two drivers still followed Tang Yishu cautiously like bodyguards, always alert to all possible dangers.
Wu Zhicheng saw Qiu Hong and Tang Yishu from a distance, but he did not realize for a moment that this young girl was the "leader" who came to inspect.
Because he was too young, Wu Zhicheng highly doubted whether this person was even twenty years old.
Moreover, looking at her timidity and following every step, she is more like the little girl in school who walks with her head down. How can she look like a leader at all?
But judging from Qiu Hong's attitude towards her and the look of the two bodyguards behind her as if they were facing a formidable enemy, one would think that she is a person of very high status.
"Could it be that he is the apple of the eye of the big benefactor behind Mr. Qiu?"
Wu Zhicheng's mind instantly appeared in many scenes that are common in the film.
Although he was a little surprised, Wu Zhicheng felt a lot more relieved after seeing Tang Yishu's true face.
Originally, he was naturally somewhat resistant to things like "leadership inspections". He was afraid of encountering an inhumane leader, so he asked some stupid questions and put forward some stupid rectification suggestions in order to increase his sense of presence.
It turned out that she was a timid little girl who looked easy to talk to. Wu Zhicheng felt a lot more comfortable, thinking that this "inspection" was probably just a formality.
What kind of game design can such a young girl know? She must have just taken a quick look at it, and Mr. Qiu just made a few random remarks and passed it by.
Xi Hao also saw Qiu Hong and Tang Yishu, and hurriedly greeted them: "Mr. Qiu!"
Qiu Hong introduced: "This is Xiao Tang, the representative of the investors of the Qiutu Project, and this is Xi Hao, the head of the administrative department who is responsible for the daily operation and management of the incubation base."
Qiu Hong felt that since Tang Yishu could serve as a "special envoy" to inspect the work, she must be a person in charge within Tenda, right? Logically speaking, she should bring her position when addressing her.
But he couldn't tell Tang Yishu's specific position in Tengda because Mr. Pei didn't mention it.
Therefore, I can only introduce it vaguely.
Xi Hao quickly stretched out his hand: "Nice to meet you, nice to meet you."
Tang Yishu was afraid that her luck would affect others again, but she also felt that not shaking hands was a bit rude, so she had to stretch out her hand to shake it with some trepidation: "My name is Tang Yishu, please call me Xiao Tang."
Seeing that the "leader" who came to inspect was so arrogant, Xi Hao was very happy and said quickly: "Okay, let me introduce the daily work of the incubation base. Please follow me."
Xi Hao led Tang Yishu and Qiu Hong around the incubation base and gave a brief introduction.
"This is our rest area, where we have lunch, daily meetings, receive guests, etc."
"This is the administrative district. Our administrative department is mainly responsible for planning game development plans and various supporting services. In addition to being responsible for the daily operations of the incubation base, we also have a lot of work to do."
"Our lunch is delivered by the nearby Moyu takeaway, and coffee and drinks are provided for free."
"As for games, the current development progress is going well. The fastest game may be officially launched next month, and the slower game may have to wait another three to five months. The capacity of the game is different, and the development time will also vary.
difference."
Xi Hao briefly introduced all aspects of the incubation base. During this process, Tang Yishu listened carefully and nodded frequently, but did not ask any questions at all.
Originally, Xi Hao planned to give a brief introduction, but Tang Yishu would definitely ask questions, and he would just answer them in detail when the time comes.
Unexpectedly, Tang Yishu just listened carefully and nodded without any thought of asking questions.
This is a little embarrassing, because it only takes about ten minutes to go through the entire incubation base and introduce it. People come all the way from Jingzhou to visit the imperial capital. They can't inspect and leave in ten minutes, right?
However, the entire incubation base had indeed been introduced, and Tang Yishu did not ask any questions. Xi Hao felt that it was a bit strange for him to take the initiative to introduce it in detail from the beginning.
Seeing that the situation seemed a bit awkward, Xi Hao was quick to think.
"How about I ask the producers to show a few relatively complete demos for you to take a brief look at?"
As soon as these words came out of his mouth, Xi Hao admired himself a little.
There is nothing special about the incubation base, but there are so many independent games being made!
Although these independent games are not yet ready to be officially launched and are only partially completed, there is still no problem in showing them as demos.
Showing these demos also shows that the work at the incubation base is effective and the results are remarkable, and Mr. Qiu can also be proud of it.
Tang Yishu said with some uncertainty: "If it's too much trouble, there's no need..."
Xi Hao hurriedly said: "No trouble, no trouble! Come, please come this way."
"Lao Yu, bring up the demo of your game. Yes, it's the demo of the stable trial version that was just made some time ago."
Next to him, an independent game producer with a slight beard immediately opened the editor and pulled up the demo of his own game.
Xi Hao stepped forward and took a quick look. There was nothing wrong with the game demo's start interface. Then he looked at Tang Yishu and pointed to the seat: "Please sit down."
This is a stable trial version of the demo with relatively few bugs.
There will also be different versions during the game development process. In order to prevent some irreparable vicious bugs from appearing in the game, the old version will not be overwritten immediately after the new version is developed or is completed, but multiple versions will be saved.
After each version is completed, it will be modified repeatedly to ensure that there are no major vicious bugs before the development of the next version continues.
This demo is a stable version, and after several bug fixes it can basically run smoothly.
Of course, Xi Hao was also afraid that a bunch of vicious bugs would suddenly appear in the middle of the game and leave a bad impression on the other party, so he first chose a stable version of the game demo.
Tang Yishu sat on the chair and picked up the handle on the table very unfamiliarly.
She doesn't usually play games much, and her reaction is a little slow and her hands are handicapped, so her posture when holding the controller is a bit stiff.
Xi Hao was a little surprised, why did the representative of the investors of the "Jiutu Project" seem not to be very good at playing games?
But he didn't say anything, he just briefly introduced how to operate the game and which skills each button corresponds to.
Tang Yishu pushed the joystick lightly, and the little man on the screen took a few steps and jumped on the spot a few times.
However, before the first mob was refreshed, a "boom" sound was heard, and a prompt box popped up on the game window.
An error was reported!
Both Xi Hao and Lao Yu opened their eyes wide, finding it difficult to accept it for a moment.
Isn’t this a demo of the stable version?
After running it at least dozens of times, there are no vicious bugs?
Xi Hao looked at Lao Yu and asked, "What's going on? Why did you let me off the hook at the critical moment?"
Lao Yu was also very innocent. He spread his hands and meant: How the hell did I know!
This stable demo version has not been changed for a long time, and it has been working fine before.
The game reported an error and could no longer be played. Xi Hao felt that the atmosphere was a bit awkward and hurriedly said: "Small bugs, small bugs, these problems are inevitable in the game development process."
"Lao Yu, hurry up and take a screenshot of this bug, and seize the time to modify it later, so as not to affect the official version."
Lao Yu nodded: "Hey! No problem."
Tang Yishu played with a controller, and Lao Yu stood by and took screenshots with a keyboard and mouse, and quickly created a new table to record the bugs, waiting for subsequent modifications.
Then he closed the error window and re-run the game.
Tang Yishu entered the game again, and this time she ran for a minute, and no more bugs appeared.
Xi Hao wiped the sweat from his forehead and said: "Look, that was just an occasional small bug, it doesn't happen every time. It must be a coincidence today, there's no big problem..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw the villain on the screen being beaten to death by a group of mobs. However, the option screen to restart did not appear, and the game process was stuck.
Xi Hao: "This..."
There was no need for him to say anything this time. Lao Yu hurriedly took screenshots, recorded and restarted the game in one go. The whole process took less than a minute.
Xi Hao was speechless: "You can continue."
After more than half an hour, Tang Yishu finally got through this short demo.
However, when looking at Lao Yu, there were at least fifteen items listed on the table, and there were also a bunch of screenshots of bugs on the desktop.
Xi Hao was a little ashamed and didn't dare to look directly into Qiu Hong's eyes.
This is a big deal!
Originally, I wanted to show the games developed at the incubation base to Xiao Tang who came to inspect, but it turned out to be a display of bugs!
Fifteen bugs immediately stun Lao Yu. The severity of the bugs here varies. Some bugs directly report errors and exit the game, some are texture errors that affect the visual effects, and some just cause the game to freeze, but they are still
I can continue to play.
But no matter whether the bug is serious or not, it needs to be fixed.
Lao Yu originally felt good about himself and felt that there would be no problem in showing off this stable version demo. However, he didn’t know why he was so memorized today, and all the hidden occasional bugs were caught up!
Xi Hao said with some embarrassment: "This should be an accident, bad luck. If you take a look at this game again, it shouldn't be a big problem."
"Xiao Zhou, turn on your game."
Xi Hao was eager to regain his place and prove that not all the games produced at the incubation base were rubbish, but that there were still playable games.
However, Xiao Zhou scratched his head and said with some embarrassment: "Brother Hao, I don't know why I can't open this game..."
Xi Haoren fainted: "Weren't you fine this morning? Why can't you open it?"
Xiao Zhou looked innocent: "I don't know either! I haven't changed anything!"
Xi Hao was speechless: "Hurry up and investigate!"
Suddenly, the entire independent game incubation base was in a state of chaos.
Indie games inherently have a lot of bugs.
Because of the shortage of manpower in independent games, whether it is testing bugs or fixing bugs, they are not so timely.
However, these independent game producers are already used to it. Some experienced independent game producers will choose more mature and complete solutions to reduce the existence of some hidden bugs.
And after arriving at the incubation base, the producers and administrative department employees often play each other's games and find bugs for each other, so there are a lot fewer bugs than before.
These independent game producers have always been in a state of "quiet time" and feel that their games do not have that many bugs, and at least they run smoothly without any major problems.
As a result, everyone was slapped in the face today!
All kinds of weird bugs are popping up in an endless stream. All game producers have a feeling that there is a leak in the house and it rains all night, as if all the bad luck has happened today!
Wu Zhiben was full of confidence and wanted to show "Ink Clouds and Smoke" to the little leader girl who came to inspect, but he secretly played it himself and discovered a lot of bugs!
Many of the bugs here were things he had never seen before. It seemed that they had been lurking since the beginning of the production of "Ink, Ink, Clouds and Smoke". They had been lurking for several versions, and were suddenly exposed today.
Wu Zhicheng was poured a ladle of cold water on his head and remained silent.
What else is this showing? Don’t be embarrassed, hurry up and fix the bug!
I no longer dare to take the hidden bugs lightly. Fortunately, they were exposed during the development process. What if they were hidden until the game was launched, and then a vicious bug broke out in a concentrated manner? How about being scolded to death by the players?
It would be such an injustice that the game that had been worked so hard for months would be ruined by such a bug.
The atmosphere in the incubation base quickly changed from lively to serious, and then from serious to collapsed.
Countless bugs ruthlessly pierced the illusions of these producers and made them no longer feel good about themselves.
Xi Hao was also a little embarrassed. He originally wanted to show off the achievements of the incubation base, but ended up falling over one after another.
Although Xiao Tang didn't look angry and still had a kind face, Xi Hao felt endless pressure.
It seems that we have to pay close attention to game testing in the future. At this level, it is still far from being launched online!
There was no more games to play, so Xi Hao suggested: "How about we go to the rest area to sit for a while and have a cup of coffee."
Tang Yishu nodded: "Okay."
Everyone came to the rest area and each ordered a cup of coffee.
Xi Hao felt a little apologetic: "I'm really sorry today. I don't know why, but all the bugs have caught up! But don't worry, our attitude in fixing bugs is absolutely fine. All these bugs will be fixed soon, and we will do the same in the future."
Be alert, test it several times, and do everything possible to reduce the existence of bugs."
"Uh... do you have any other questions? I can answer them all."
Tang Yishu originally wanted to say that she had no other questions, but suddenly she remembered Pei Qian's instructions before leaving and hurriedly said: "I would like to ask, how is the work efficiency here?"
"Work efficiency?" Xi Hao replied immediately, "Of course the work efficiency is very, very high!"
“Our administrative department helps producers solve their worries, allowing them to concentrate on game gameplay design. Because it is their interest and the most creative work, every game producer’s creative enthusiasm is fully stimulated.
…”
Xi Hao finally found a place suitable for him and started talking.
Although his words are slightly exaggerated, there is actually no big problem. The incubation base does provide independent game producers with an environment where they can create with peace of mind, and it greatly improves their work efficiency. This is the consensus of all game producers.
Xi Hao explained his point of view in detail and used various details to prove that the work efficiency of the incubation base is indeed very high.
He noticed that Tang Yishu listened carefully and nodded frequently, obviously moved by what he said.
Xi Hao couldn't help but feel a little proud. After all, he had improved the work efficiency of the producers. This was the credit of him, the head of the administrative department.
Should I praise you?
However, after listening to Xi Hao's words, Tang Yishu said: "It sounds like there are serious problems with your daily work process."
"From now on, it will be mandatory for all staff to spare ten hours of working time per week to play games. It must be during working time and cannot take up rest time after get off work."
Xi Hao: "Ah?"
He almost thought he heard wrongly.
Why might high productivity indicate serious problems with daily workflow?
And the solution is to make it mandatory to play games during working hours? Do you also have to play ten hours a week?
Tang Yishu said this without confidence, because she was just repeating what Pei Qian said before coming.
Pei Qian said that as long as the work efficiency of the incubation base is high, everyone must be forced to play games for ten hours a week.
As for why you need to play games to be efficient at work? Pei Qian didn't say this, and Tang Yishu naturally didn't know either.
Qiu Hong, who was silent on the side, suddenly raised his head: "Xiao Tang, do you think that the 'high work efficiency' described by Xi Hao is not necessarily a good thing?"
Xi Hao was stunned for a moment: "Ah? Why is high work efficiency not necessarily a good thing?"
Qiu Hong explained: "If we follow conventional thinking, high work efficiency is definitely better than low work efficiency. But in some artistic creation work, simply high efficiency is not necessarily a good thing."
"Game design is also a kind of artistic creation, and sometimes it is very dependent on inspiration. Many times, people's thinking is very confusing. When they are thinking too hard, people's energy will be highly concentrated and work efficiency will be significantly improved. But the final product may not be good.”
"Take these game producers for example. They are very dedicated to their work and very efficient, but precisely because of this, they are likely to fall into a state of paranoia and focus all their energy on their games. , blindly believe that their current approach is the best, and ignore some better possibilities."
"The purpose of forcing everyone to play more games is to hope that while maintaining efficiency, everyone can step out of their own small circles and see what other games are doing, learn from their strengths, and maybe inspire new inspiration."
"I think that's what Xiao Tang means."
Xi Hao suddenly realized: "I see, I understand! Then I will start organizing everyone to play games together and collect inspiration and materials!"
After listening to Qiu Hong's words, Tang Yishu couldn't help but nodded slightly.
It turns out that this is what the senior meant!
The senior is so awesome, everything is anticipated and arranged in advance!
The inspection at the incubation base was finally over. Qiu Hong took out his mobile phone and looked at the time and said to Tang Yishu: "Then let's go here today. At 9 o'clock tomorrow morning, let's go to the cold noodle girl's place to have a look. "
…
…
December 9th, early morning on Friday.
In the first store of Cold Noodle Girl, Meng Chang directed the staff and cleaning ladies to perform their respective duties, cleaning the entire store including the kitchen, and at the same time, the tables and chairs in the store were arranged neatly.
The long-term positioning of Cold Noodle Girl is a Chinese fast food brand, which of course also deals in breakfast.
It is now 5 o'clock in the morning. Although a round of cleaning has been carried out after proofing last night, Meng Chang is still worried. He arrived early this morning and rushed to do a final inspection before opening for business to ensure that the store is kept in the best condition. .
Meng Chang didn't know about Tang Yishu's visit to the imperial capital, and the cleaning today was not for her, but for a few investors who came to inspect.
Tang Yishu and these investors met by chance.
This starts with the fact that Meng Chang received another 6 million investment from Yuanmeng Venture Capital some time ago.
Because of Mr. Pei's request, Meng Chang did not dare to reveal that the 6 million investment was obtained from Tenda. However, Meng Chang was so shrewd that he naturally had other ways to convey this information to investors.
Before Pei Qian decided to pursue the investment of 6 million, many investors had already extended an olive branch to Meng Chang.
However, Meng Chang rejected them all because he thought these investment terms were too harsh. They either had a gambling agreement or locked up the founder's shares, which was very unfriendly to him.
After Meng Chang refused, these investors neither persisted nor gave up immediately. Instead, they maintained a nonchalant attitude and continued to observe.
They are waiting for the cold-faced girl to encounter financial problems.
Now all investors can see that Meng Chang is a founder who is keen on money-burning marketing. Even if Cold Noodle Girl's store can turn a profit, it will never be able to support Meng Chang's money-burning speed.
Of course, this is not a bad thing, because Meng Chang is good at marketing and has indeed forced the brand of "Cold Noodle Girl" into users by burning money. Not only is the money spent not a loss, but also a profit.
In the eyes of many investors, this is very consistent with Internet marketing behavior, and Meng Chang did it beautifully.
Meng Chang and capital need each other.
To maintain the capital chain and popularity of Cold Noodle Girl, Meng Chang will inevitably continue to find ways to raise funds; and once the Cold Noodle Girl brand becomes successful and its valuation skyrockets, these capitals will also receive generous returns.
Therefore, these investors believe that Meng Chang's temporary refusal is just a bargaining tool.
As long as he waits for the cold-faced girl to encounter financial problems, Meng Chang will naturally put aside his arrogance and accept an investment agreement with a series of terms including gambling and share lock-up in order to continue financing.
There was nothing wrong with their plan. In fact, if Dream Ventures stopped investing money, Meng Chang would really be in this dilemma.
But Meng Chang, who has the character of a gambler, once again made the right bet.
After getting the bullet from Yuanmeng Venture Capital, although he couldn't make any publicity, Meng Chang still had a perfect opportunity to counterattack.
He began to burn money at a faster rate, even spending hundreds of thousands to rent venues, and began to hold personal lectures, using his excellent eloquence and business acumen to endorse the brand "Cold Noodle Girl".
On the one hand, this is to continue to expand the influence of the cold-faced girl, and on the other hand, it is also to send a very clear message to investors.
Don’t you want to invest money? Don’t you think I can’t get investment from other places?
Sorry, not only did I get it, but I got a lot!
Are you still going to cling to that agreement and refuse to back down? If you don’t invest now, if you don’t invest now, I’m afraid you won’t have the chance to invest in the future.
These investors couldn't help but panic when they saw that the cold-faced girl was burning so much money, that there had been no problems with the capital chain, and that Meng Chang was still strategizing.
Because things like company valuations are getting higher and higher, the more capital pours in, the faster it grows.
If you invest one month earlier and invest one month later, the shares you can actually buy are completely different due to the different valuations of the company.
Therefore, now it is the turn of these investors to lose their composure and want to take another look and decide how much concessions they need to make in the investment agreement.
Meng Chang plans to complete his success in one battle, and today he will try to deceive these investors, continue to push up the valuation of the cold-faced girl, and prepare for the next step of finding a successor.
Even a man with a big heart like Meng Chang can't help but feel a little nervous. Because if he messes up today and investors continue to wait and see, the money he has on hand really won't last too long, and the capital chain may break at any time.
risk.
Of course, even if there is a small problem in the capital chain, the Cold Noodle Girl brand will not die suddenly on the spot. Meng Chang still has many ways to find money.
But in this case, the money found will be hotter and not so easy to get.
Therefore, Meng Chang's current behavior is actually continuing to flex his muscles to investors. On the one hand, he shows investors a bright future through his good eloquence and business model, and on the other hand, he shows investors through clean and popular stores.
Prove that you have the ability to turn good prospects into reality.
After confirming all the details of the store like a paranoid, Meng Chang began to review what he had said to investors today to ensure that the morning display would be foolproof.
…
10 o'clock in the morning.
Qiu Hong and Tang Yishu came to Lengmian Girl's store and sat down in an inconspicuous corner.
Although it's not lunch time yet, there are still a lot of people in the Cold Noodle Girl store. About 60% of the seats in the store are occupied. It seems that there will definitely be a queue during the peak period at noon.
Tang Yishu looked at the environment in the store curiously, with a little confusion in her eyes.
Everything is fine, no problems can be seen.
Before coming here, Pei Qian had specifically told her to pay attention to the situation with the cold-faced girl and report truthfully when she got back. Don't worry about not understanding, there is no need to study deliberately, just observe based on your first impression.
But when Tang Yishu actually came to the store, she realized that she really didn't notice anything in her first impression.
The store is quite clean and tidy, and the business seems to be good. The waiters are not as enthusiastic as other fast food restaurants, but they all have a faint smile and are attentive to customers, even better than some traditional fast food brands.
The service attitude is even better.
In Tang Yishu's eyes, this is just a normal restaurant that makes a lot of money.
The two of us randomly ordered some signature food, and the food was served quickly.
Tang Yishu was worried while eating, because she really couldn't feel any big shortcomings or problems in this store.
Of course, it's far from perfect. It's a fast food brand after all, so you can't expect too much in terms of taste, but it's definitely above passing grade.
At the same time, Meng Chang was waiting for investors to arrive in another inconspicuous corner of the store.
Meng Chang looked calm on the surface, but actually he was a little anxious, because the appointment was at 10 o'clock, and the investors were already a few minutes late.
Suddenly, Meng Chang's eyes lit up and he immediately stood up and walked towards the door.
Not long after, Meng Chang and several investors walked into the store talking and laughing.
"Mr. Meng, I'm really sorry. There was a traffic jam on the road. I came a few minutes late and kept you waiting."
"It's okay, it's okay. It's a reward for the few of you who are willing to come to my shop. Don't be polite."
Meng Chang acted calmly and had everything under control. After a brief exchange of greetings, he began to explain the situation of the cold-faced girl to everyone.
Including the results of Cold Noodle Girl’s recent marketing plan, preparations for new stores, feedback on new meals, various service details of the store, etc.
The brand of Cold Noodle Girl is also constantly developing, and the store management model and food taste are also constantly optimized. Even if individual investors have been here some time ago, they can see obvious progress now.
After all, Meng Chang has increased his efforts to burn money. It would make no sense if there are no changes in the stores.
Tang Yishu, who was sitting in the corner next to her, was eating some grilled cold noodles while pricking up her ears to hear what these people were discussing.
However, Meng Chang's speech was not loud, and Tang Yishu could only hear it intermittently when she concentrated her attention, and she couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
If you can't see anything at the cold noodle shop this time, how can you give a job to your seniors when you go back?
Meng Chang began to enthusiastically introduce the situation in the store to investors.
“Recently, the decoration style of our store has been fine-tuned and some new embellishments have been added, mainly in order to create an atmosphere and atmosphere that combines tradition and modernity. As you can see, here is a traditional Chinese style element, as well as a
Posters with a touch of literary and artistic flair are all part of the cultural heritage of the Cold Noodle Girl brand."
"Mix and match various styles to make customers' dining environment unique. These design styles become materials that customers are willing to share on Weibo or social circles, which makes customers our free promoters."
"These details are also reflected in all aspects. For example, our dining tables and chairs are all specially customized by the factory. They are also between trendy and nostalgic, and take into account both beauty and practicality. In theory, there will be no problems in ten years...
"
Meng Chang was playing with the swivel chair while introducing it, but suddenly he heard a soft "creak" sound and the swivel chair got stuck.
Meng Chang: "?"
He thought it was the wrong way of turning, so he tried turning forward and then reverse, only to find that it was indeed stuck and not moving at all!
The scene was a little awkward for a while.
Meng Chang was very puzzled, what is going on?
He didn't tell a lie. These tables and chairs are indeed specially customized. There is no cutting corners at all. The materials used are very solid. In theory, there will be no problem in using them for several years.
But something went wrong!
Although it was not a big problem, it was just that the dining chair's rotating shaft was stuck for unknown reasons and could not continue to rotate, but the feeling of being slapped in the face still made Meng Chang very embarrassed.
Although the investors were very generous and said nothing, Meng Chang knew that these investors must have some thoughts in their hearts. The accumulation of these small flaws will affect the investors' evaluation of the cold-faced girl. What can he do?
The investment agreement will be even more stringent.
However, Meng Chang has a strong psychological quality after all. This little incident is not enough to make him lose his temper. He said with a smile: "It seems that there are still some small problems with the quality control of this furniture factory. It just so happens that if the problems are exposed early, they can be solved."
It would not be a bad thing to correct it early."
"We will definitely ask them to strengthen quality control issues later."
"In addition to the dining environment, our waiter recruitment and cultural construction are also different from other catering brands..."
Meng Chang quickly changed the topic, not wanting to continue to dwell on this matter and leave an impression on investors.
However, while we were chatting, we saw a customer standing up impatiently and came to the front desk and said: "Why isn't my fried cold noodles ready yet? Didn't you promise that the meal will be served in fifteen minutes? This is all twenty
Minutes!"
The girl at the front desk said very embarrassedly: "Sorry, I'm going to hurry up the kitchen."
The customer returned to his seat speechlessly.
The investors obviously noticed it, and there were some subtle changes in their expressions.
Meng Chang's heart skipped a beat, and he silently scolded the people in the kitchen a hundred times.
Isn't it usually good? And this morning I just made the order to ensure the speed of the meal. Why did it bother me at this time?
This is a scam!
However, he also knew very well that he couldn't dwell on this now. The more entangled he was, the bigger the flaw would be. So he pretended that nothing had happened and continued to explain to investors energetically.
But within half a minute of speaking, something happened again.
A tall and thick-set man seemed impatient to wait, and said from his seat: "Why haven't the side dishes I ordered been served yet? We've almost finished the noodles! Aren't your side dishes a cold dish? Why, we're just starting to grow them now.
?”
A waiter hurriedly came over and whispered comforting words.
The corners of Meng Chang's mouth twitched slightly. It was impossible to ignore it this time. Once could be said to be accidental, but twice?
You must know that Cold Noodle Girl positions itself as a fast food brand. The requirement is that meals must be served within 15 minutes. The sooner the better. Now there is a problem with the meal delivery time. The impression left on investors is that the kitchen management is chaotic. Maybe
It will directly affect the brand building and reputation of Cold Noodle Girl.
What's more, it's not the peak lunch period yet, so there shouldn't be any delays in serving food.
This is definitely something that cannot be fooled.
Meng Chang adjusted his mentality and still maintained his demeanor: "Sorry, there seems to be a small problem in the kitchen. Please wait a moment, I will deal with it."
Meng Chang quickly came to the kitchen and whispered angrily: "What's going on! Why is the food being served so slowly today!"
The waiters were busy, and when they saw Meng Chang coming, they hurriedly explained: "Mr. Meng! I don't know what happened today. I was a little unlucky. I accidentally cooked a pot of fried noodles just now, and then I didn't serve it.
I accidentally fell and missed the side dish..."
Meng Chang was so angry that his teeth itched. There was no time to make trouble, but it had to be at this juncture!
But it was already like this, and Meng Chang had no other good solution. He could only curse a few words and ask them to hurry up and have dinner.
Meng Chang left the kitchen and regained his calm expression.
He came to the center of the store and clapped his hands gently: "Dear customers, I'm very sorry. There was a little problem in the kitchen today. But don't worry, I promise you that there will be no problem within 15 minutes today."
For those who dine out, we will give everyone a full meal free of charge!”
At this time, the only way to extinguish the anger of customers is by throwing money wildly.
If there is a problem, it must be solved quickly and actively. These investors are still watching. If the problem is not solved in time, points will be doubled.
After hearing that the order would be waived, the anxiously waiting customers finally calmed down.
Qiu Hong was a little puzzled and whispered: "Hey, the food was served pretty quickly when we came here. Is there something wrong with their kitchen?"
Tang Yishu continued to eat the grilled cold noodles and pretended not to hear.
I still remember the first time I went to Mingfu’s family dinner, even Mr. Li’s high-end restaurant was affected, and there were a lot of problems in the kitchen.
Cold Noodle Girl is just an ordinary fast food restaurant, and the kitchen behind it is definitely not as good as the Mingfu Family Banquet, so how can it withstand it.
Tang Yishu felt a little guilty. She came for an unannounced visit today. Looking at the current situation, she was a little worried that she might have accidentally ruined her senior's affairs, right?
Tang Yishu took out a tissue and wiped her mouth: "Mr. Qiu, let's go."
Qiu Hong was stunned for a moment: "Ah? Don't you want to look at it anymore?"
Tang Yishu shook her head: "I won't watch anymore."
She knew that the cold noodle girl was invested by Pei Qian. If she sat down here again, the situation in the kitchen would continue, and the consequences would be disastrous.
It's better to leave as soon as possible before causing more harm.
Qiu Hong didn't say much. After all, the person who came to make an unannounced visit was Tang Yishu, and he was only responsible for accompanying him. The two of them got up and left.
Meng Chang continued to explain to the investors, but it was obvious that the investors' eyes were no longer as interested as they were at the beginning.
There is no way, today's unexpected situation is really hurtful, and many investors who were originally excited have returned to a wait-and-see state.
"Okay, Mr. Meng, let's go here first today. We will discuss the investment when we go back. We will give you an answer in two days."
Investors are still very polite, but the attitude in their conversations has obviously changed slightly from when they first came here.
Meng Chang knew this, but he had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue to pretend to be indifferent, and sent these investors away with a smile.
Returning to the cold-faced girl, Meng Chang sighed silently, found an empty seat and sat down to sulk.
The waiter walked over quickly and said in a low voice: "Mr. Meng! The kitchen is no longer a problem, and the delayed customers have also been given free orders. The dining time during the lunch peak period can definitely be guaranteed!"
Meng Chang glanced at her angrily, not knowing what to say for a moment.
