Unexpected business
This evening, Lu Yu and I arrived at the bar early, and Munn couldn't come a little later because the "Empty City" restaurant needed to be taken care of.
There were still no customers in the bar, not even music, and Lu Yu and I sat in a quiet corner discussing the future of the bar.
The two of them each lit a cigarette, and Lu Yu said to me: "Jiaming, do you think we should find more outreach personnel, and open up more permissions to sign wine (give free wine) to drive the business of the bar." ”
I thought about it and said: "Such a measure can not fundamentally solve the business problem of the bar, and a large number of foreign wine signing will increase our operating costs, too risky before there is no consumer base, and the customers brought by the outreach staff are often poor consumption stickiness, and it is difficult for them to form a secondary consumption when the bar does not have clear business characteristics...... Therefore, it is imperative to find a clear business direction for the bar first. ”
Lu Yu nodded and said, "You know these better than me, listen to you." ”
"Hmm. I answered, and fell into deep thought.
At the moment, I have a lot of ideas about management, but they all involve a lot of money, and I don't dare to take risks to implement them when the current funds are not abundant.
I have a bit of a headache, and I feel even more tricky, even if I am given enough funds to implement the idea at the moment, I am not too sure, after all, the external marketing environment is really poor!
At a loss, I looked at the operation of the bar at this time, and felt helpless, it was already 8 o'clock in the evening, but in the huge bar, there were only less than ten consumers sitting, it was simply miserable, and Lu Yu had lost the desire to sing on stage, so he sat opposite me and smoked.
It was almost 9 o'clock when Munn hurried to Lu Yu and me with his handbags, and looked around the bar with a disappointed expression on his face.
"Jia Ming, is this bar still saved?...... I really can't afford to lose it if I continue like this!" Munn lamented.
I didn't know the bottom of my heart, but I still comforted and said, "Don't worry, there will be a way." ”
"Then you hurry up and find a way, and when Le Yao comes back, we will surprise and explain to her. Munn said as he sat down beside Lu Yu.
I nodded, looked around the bar again, and looked at the high-end decoration of the bar, but there were only a few customers, and my heart became bored again.
Soon another hour passed, there were fewer customers in the bar, the waiter at the bar yawned several times in boredom, and Lu Yu had fallen asleep on the table.
I lit a cigarette for myself a little weakly, but I still didn't have a very cost-effective business idea.
Suddenly there was a noise at the entrance, and then more than 30 people entered the bar like a stream, led by a man in a suit and leather shoes, quite imposing, at first glance it was the company's executives, and the people behind him were also dressed in formal clothes, as if they had just finished working overtime.
The executive-looking man was talking to the waiter at the bar, and the waiter seemed to be unable to figure it out and called me over again.
I came up to the man and asked, "Hello, is there anything I need help with?"
The man said to me with a look of disappointment, "Didn't the beautiful woman who sang in your bar yesterday come today?"
I was stunned for a moment to know that he was talking about Zhang Rixuan, shook my head and said, "I'm sorry, she is not a resident singer of the bar, she is our friend, and she came to play tickets yesterday." ”
The look of disappointment on the man's face became even heavier, and he said to me after a while, "Alas...... Suzhou's bars, there are no characteristics, one is more noisy than the other, one is more than the other will toss, and there are few serious and horizontal resident singers, like us social elites, tired to death after a day of high-intensity work, can listen to her sing a song quietly here, it is simply enjoyable, but also can relieve the tension of the day, and it is good for sleep...... Alas, it's a pity ......."
As soon as the man's words fell, someone behind him asked: "Mr. Bai, you said that you took us to the bar to relax and relax after working overtime today, and said that there are some beautiful women singing, and you haven't even seen a shadow, you won't be playing with us, right?"
When others said this, the man was a little embarrassed, pulled me aside, then took out a wad of money from his bag and handed it to me, and discussed with me: "Brother, do you see if you can call your friends to come and sing us a few songs, money is not a problem, you have to help me with this, and any party in our company will come to your bar in the future, how about it?"
I looked embarrassed, and the man hurriedly took out about a thousand yuan and handed it to me, saying, "Brother, no matter what, I have brought all of them, you can let her come over and sing a few songs, these are the executives of our company, you must find me a step down in front of them." ”
I couldn't laugh or cry, if I told him that Zhang Rixuan, who sang in the bar yesterday, was the general manager of Zhuomei Shopping Center, I don't know if he would still think that this is something that money can solve.
Munn didn't know when he came to my side and said to me, "Jiaming, why don't you call Mi'er to come and save the scene, after all, the bar is so difficult now, and it is not easy to have so many customers." ”
"It's not that you don't know that she went to Shanghai today, whether she went back to Suzhou or not, it's hard to say!"
"Make a phone call and ask......" Lu Yu finished speaking to me, and then said to the man: "Our friend went to Shanghai today, if he doesn't come back, there is really no way!"
After all, the man is a social elite, and he doesn't have the unreasonable temper of those idle people, so he nodded very understandingly and said: "Then you call to confirm, if you don't come back, you can't come back...... Still, we'll be spending here today, I promise!"
Munn smiled apologetically and said, "Thank you for your understanding, we'll call her." ”
......
Munn pulled me aside and said to me, "Jiaming, you call and ask. ”
I shook my head and said, "You should call her, she won't necessarily give me face." ”
"Why are you so unconfident?" said Mun, giving me a blank look.
I ignored the roll of Meng's eyes, urged, and said, "It's the same if you fight, so many people are waiting, can you come, you can quickly give someone an answer." ”
Munn looked at the waiting crowd, and finally couldn't resist me, so he took out his mobile phone and dialed Zhang Rixuan's number.
Then I heard her say, "Honey, have you returned to Suzhou?"
"That's great, there's something you can help me with, can you come to Le Yao's bar now......?"
"Well, the customers are waiting, so come here...... Stay safe when driving on the road!"
Relieved, Mun hung up the phone and smiled at me, "That's it!" ”
I gave her a thumbs up and said, "Awesome, I'll just say she'll give you face...... If I invite her, it will be light if she doesn't choke me a few words!"
Munn smiled, didn't continue to joke with me, walked to the group of customers, and after informing them of the situation, they all seemed very happy, each found a seat, ordered something, and waited for Zhang Rixuan's arrival in the conversation.
I am also a little more relaxed because of the arrival of this group of people, and I am even more grateful to them, because because of their arrival, only one day later, I have the opportunity to listen to Zhang Rixuan's singing again
