Dormitory convenience store?!

The restaurateur's words made all the students in the finance class stunned, of course, it was not that they didn't know what a convenience store was, but they were surprised and skeptical of the idea. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Actually, I've been doing business here at Harvard for more than three years, and I've found some phenomena here. ”

The restaurant owner was a little timid in the face of the eyes of all the finance students, but he still mustered up the courage to say: "It is undeniable that the construction of Harvard's campus is very successful, not only the environment but also other supporting facilities are very good, so that we can cultivate the world's first-class talents, but I found that there are still certain problems in the purchase of convenience goods, especially fast food products." ”

Maybe it was because he was not convinced, or maybe it was really just a simple question, in short, when the restaurant owner finished speaking, Li Yang immediately retorted: "Is that so? But as far as I know, there is at least one convenience store in every dormitory area on the Harvard campus, how can you say that there is none?"

Seeing this, Zhou Ming enlightened the restaurant owner and said: "Boss, just say whatever you want, Li Yang, he just put forward some of his own opinions, you can too, we are just communicating with each other." ”

Zhou Ming's words gave the restaurant owner a certain amount of confidence, and the restaurant owner continued: "Classmate, I didn't say that there is no convenience store in the school dormitory, I just said that he has a big problem, and the biggest problem is that the convenience store is outside the dormitory." ”

Hearing the restaurant owner say this, all the students in the finance class were stunned, they looked at the boss inexplicably, and they didn't understand what he was talking about: Isn't the convenience store just open outside? This is common sense, if this is also a problem, then I am afraid that there is no school that does not have a problem.

The restaurateur went on to explain: "Since the convenience store is outside, all students have to walk out of the dormitory first to buy something, but I have observed that many people just don't want to take these extra steps. ”

"There was a time when a couple of Harvard students came to my restaurant for dinner, and I looked into the situation, and they told me that they would rather spend more money than spend more time. Especially now in winter, the temperature in Brighton is very low, but there is heating in the dormitory, and they are even more reluctant to run out in the wind and snow for a little something. ”

The restaurateur thought for a moment and added: "At night, it's normal to go to bed late or even all night while studying on the Harvard campus or doing other things, but I'm sorry, the Harvard convenience store is not open until after 11 o'clock, and students can't find a place to buy anything at that time." ”

In the end, the restaurateur concluded: "That's why a lot of students have complained that it would be nice to have a convenience store in their dorm building, and they would be okay with it as long as it wasn't ridiculously expensive." ”

After listening to the restaurant owner, Zhou Ming looked around and asked, "What do you think of the boss's idea?"

In the face of Zhou Ming's question, everyone looked at each other, and no one knew how to answer, or they didn't know how to answer at all. Zhou Ming had no choice but to say to himself: "I personally agree with the idea of the boss, I think it is very feasible, but I am a little curious." ”

Zhou Ming said and glanced back at the restaurant owner and asked, "Boss, since you have already investigated this situation, why don't you do it?"

The words were amazing, and all the students in the finance class admired Zhou Ming very much, thinking that this was worthy of being their class teacher, and his business mind was much clearer than theirs.

It may sound like Zhou Ming's question is not complicated, but it completely asks the key point, since you restaurant owner can say so much, and you have also visited and asked students yourself, and the advice you give is so pertinent, and you are so sure that this project will make money, then why don't you do it yourself? Obviously, there must be other problems in this, so you will not do it yourself and encourage others to do it.

This sounds like a logical question, but the only one who can think of this question at this time, and can ask such a question without being bothered by any other factors, is Zhou Ming.

In the face of Zhou Ming's question, the restaurant owner broke out in a cold sweat, of course, he would be like this, not because there was anything wrong with what he said, he deliberately wanted to brag in front of them or something, but the momentum on Zhou Ming's body enveloped him, so that he couldn't help but panic.

"Actually, there is no special reason," the restaurateur said, wiping the cold sweat from his head, "but pure no one did it." ”

"What does it mean that no one does it?Is it because the income is very low?" Li Yang asked in surprise, and the other finance class students all nodded together, although they all believed in Zhou Ming's judgment, they still felt that this kind of convenience store thing was not very profitable.

"No, you don't think that the income is very low because the things in the convenience store are very cheap, in fact, if you can open a dormitory convenience store, his profit is at least 200 to 300 percent, for example, a piece of toast bread that is hot quickly, the convenience store sells it for 20 cents, but if you want to sell it in the dormitory convenience store, you can sell it for 50 or even 60 cents, and I believe that people will buy it. ”

After listening to the restaurant owner, Li Yang immediately asked him: "Boss, then since the profit of this thing is so high, why do you still say that no one does it?"

This time, before the restaurant owner could say anything, Zhou Ming said first: "If I'm not mistaken, what the boss said should be that no one wants to do it, right?"

When the restaurant owner heard Zhou Ming say this, he immediately nodded as if he had met a bosom friend: "That's right, Boss Zhou, what you said, no one does it, after all, Harvard is a place to cultivate senior management talents." ”

As the restaurant owner said this, everyone understood, but the students in the finance class understood much later than Zhou Ming, in fact, when Zhou Ming asked that sentence, he had already thought of this, people are a little lazy in the end, this is not a derogatory term, but a yearning for a better life.

Just imagine that ordinary people want to do better, more comfortable, money-making and easy jobs, want to go to work easily every day, get a monthly salary of hundreds of thousands, and go to all corners of the world for vacation at any time of the year, not to mention these Harvard pride, their arrogance will only be heavier.

Zhou Ming still remembers that in his previous life, when he was in China, he was admitted to graduate school and lived in a university dormitory, at that time, because the graduate dormitory was full, he was arranged to an ordinary university dormitory.

It doesn't sound like much money, but if you compare the supermarket price of instant noodles, you can see that the profit of this business is 50% to 100%, and this is still a fast-moving product, if you pair it with chicken feet and marinated eggs, bread, eight-treasure porridge, ham sausage, etc., you can have a net profit of one or two hundred yuan a day, and if you don't go to class on weekends, you can earn a maximum of thousands of net profits a day.

It stands to reason that such a profitable business, there must be many people rushing to do it, but in fact, it is not, there are hundreds of people in the whole dormitory, and he is the only one doing it, and the others either can't see it, or they don't want to do it, or they don't want to do it, or they think it's troublesome to buy goods every day, or they think it's very tiring to sell until midnight every day, or they think it's shameful to do business in the dormitory like this, in short, there are always some reasons.

Now that they are at Harvard, in addition to these ideas, these Harvard students are estimated to be more important, that is, they don't look down on this little money, they feel that they should be executives of big companies, they want to start their own businesses, and they want to make hundreds of thousands of dollars per minute, and this piece of bread does not earn a dollar, how can it be what my Harvard students do?

Just like when Zhou Ming asked the students in the finance class what to do, everyone's first reaction was that securities companies, fund companies and even banks would never face up to other businesses, so the restaurant owner would say that no one did it.

Thinking of this, all the students in the finance class lowered their heads in shame, and Zhou Ming continued: "In fact, our ancestors said a long time ago that there is no distinction between high and low work, and the same is true for doing business. ”

With Zhou Ming's words, the classmates all laughed, and Li Yang said: "Teacher, what you said is so right, in our hometown, it is said that people who buy frangipani for a dime and a dime are stupid B, so I think these Americans are the fighters in the stupid B!"

Ye Ning said: "What the teacher said is right, we just want to make money to come to the United States, first of all, to earn the money of these Harvard people, we call it to win glory for the country!"

Looking at the lively scene in the box, the restaurant owner was stunned, once upon a time, when he thought of this project, he also thought that he would have such support when he found someone, but as a result, he was greeted with endless cold eyes and ridicule. And now that Zhou Ming is here, he can have such treatment, is this his personality charm? No wonder he can become the teacher of these people, what kind of person is this!

When the restaurant owner thought so, Zhou Ming raised his glass and said: "In this case, we have decided that our first entrepreneurial project is this dormitory convenience store! I hope that from today onwards, students can look at the problem with the most objective and pragmatic vision, abandon all bad emotions, and if there is no wine today, we will replace wine with tea." ”

As Zhou Ming raised his glass, the other students in the finance class also raised their glasses, and everyone cheered loudly.

Finally, Zhou Ming also turned to the restaurant owner: "Of course, we also have to thank the boss, because he thought of such a good project for us, and there will be many things to ask for when our business is done in the future!"

Zhou Ming said that he took the students in the finance class to toast a cup of tea to the restaurant owner, who was flattered and poured a cup of tea in a panic.

The restaurant owner looked at the picture of all the students following Zhou Ming to offer tea to him, his heart was very shocked, although he didn't think he was a very far-sighted person, but at this moment, he still felt that Zhou Ming was a leader with the temperament of a leader!
