Chapter 233: Shift in Focus: Restaurant Brand Chain

Everyone was watching, and Li Youqing was also refusing with all his strength, and even ran to the left and right to resign from the task again, but was directly rejected.

"I really can't do it! I've never had the experience of coordinating such a large-scale event, so what if I mess it up?" After returning home, Xiao Nizi told this matter in front of Jiangbei, and her little face was full of unwillingness.

"I think it's good, exercise your business skills. "The plan was thought up by Jiangbei, and he must have helped Erjing Film and Television to speak.

"I don't need to exercise this kind of business ability, I just need to act well and sing good songs. Li Youqing is still accurate about his positioning and knows what he wants.

"But if you can complete this event, you will definitely be appreciated by the company's top management, which will definitely help you in your future acting career. And taking a step back, it's also a great opportunity for you to network. ”

Coordinating the anniversary celebration is equivalent to being in power. Those artists who want to participate in the anniversary celebration have to look at the face of the general manager, isn't this a good time to sell favors!

Li Youqing felt that there seemed to be a little truth when he heard it, but he was still not confident enough in himself, rubbing his eyebrows and saying: "Although I said that, I still feel that I am not suitable." ”

"It's okay, you are the person in charge, and the main job is to build a team, and let the people below do the specific things. Jiangbei patted his wife's hand and said comfortingly.

For this anniversary celebration, all the directors currently signed by Erjing Film and Television will go into battle and form a director group under the command of Li Youqing.

So in fact, it is the director team who really does the work, and she just has one decision.

"Is that so......"

Xiao Nizi subconsciously held the big hand with her backhand, her eyes were full of worry, because she didn't have any experience, so her heart was bottomless.

But worry is worry, and the task still has to be continued.

In fact, as Jiangbei said, although Li Youqing is the general person in charge of this anniversary celebration, in fact, she really only needs to play the role of a leader who makes decisions, and the specific affairs will be carried out by the following director team.

For example, the selection of venues, performance programs, activity arrangements, etc., will be preliminarily discussed by the director team and then submitted to Li Youqing, and then she will be approved according to the feasibility of these plans, and if they are approved, they will enter the preparatory stage.

But it's actually difficult to make a decision, and sometimes when she thinks that there is a problem with the plan, she has to find the director team for a second discussion and listen to everyone's opinions to make a decision.

So in the days from the end of July to the beginning of August, Xiao Nizi was very busy every day, holding various meetings, surveying the venue, and selecting plans.

In this state, where does she still have the heart to think about things in the entertainment industry?

Even his father-in-law, Li Qiangguo, heard about Li Youqing's recent situation from his wife Wen Cui'e, and couldn't help but call Jiangbei to praise: "Beibei, your method is really good, if only it could be maintained forever." ”

Li Qiangguo, like Jiangbei, simply doesn't want Li Youqing to appear in the entertainment industry, and the concept of Weng and his son-in-law is still relatively old. But there is no resistance to Li Youqing becoming a career-oriented strong woman, after all, people always have to find something meaningful to do in this life, rather than wasting time every day.

"Dad, don't worry, Liang Liang has recently come up with a clever plan, maybe he can completely let the young child leave the entertainment industry. Jiangbei said on the phone.

"Oh, cool girl is so smart?" Li Qiangguo was a little surprised when he heard this.

"Aside from gambling, she's probably the most versatile person in the world. ”

This is Jiangbei's heartfelt recognition of Zhang Jiuliang.

......

"You really don't know anything about my Anseong gambling king's abilities. ”

Next to an intersection on Azure Road, Zhang Jiuliang and his brother stood below looking at the Malatang shop that had closed down, full of boasting.

The reason comes from Jiangbei's admiration that she can find such a shop on a bustling street to take over, and this store is actually the one that Jiangbei overheard talking to Ji Yingzi two years ago.

However, it is a pity that the operation of Malatang in the past two years may have been a little problematic, resulting in losses all the time, and some other factors have made this Malatang, which was originally envied by him, close its doors.

"Is the price negotiated, and how much is the transfer fee?" Jiang Bei asked, looking at the store.

"After negotiating, I won't pay a penny for the transfer fee, just make up the rent for the remaining two years. Liang Liang said with a smile.

Jiangbei was a little surprised when he heard this: "You don't want a transfer fee?"

Liang Liang nodded: "That's right, because the owner of this shop can't pay off a lot of debts because he went to Aomen to gamble, so he only mortgaged the store to the people at Aomen Casino." It just so happened that I knew the people over there, so I only needed to pay the rest of the rent to get the contract. ”

"You didn't play with this kind of thing, did you?" Jiang Bei's alertness rose slowly, staring at Liang Liang and asked.

Gambling is a bad behavior in itself, just like Zhang Jiuliang, who is known as the gambling king of Ancheng, ran to beg under the overpass when he lost at the beginning, not to mention those ordinary gamblers.

In fact, after the day she took Liangliang home, Jiangbei restrained Liangliang in this regard and forbade her to enter the casino to gamble.

In the past few years, although Liangliang has occasionally played cards and mahjong with others, it is all a small fight, and Jiangbei has not said anything, but if you really enter the casino venue, the nature will be different.

Liang Liang put his hands in his pockets, looking at ease: "Brother, you still don't know enough about me, in fact, the real magic of gambling is not to win money in the casino, but to map this ability in all aspects of reality." In other words, ordinary people gamble just to win money, but I, Zhang Jiuliang, want to win in life when I go to gamble. ”

"So that's why you've been losing money?"

"In this way, I am giving hope to gamblers who are on the verge of bankruptcy to avoid the destruction of their families, and I am a living bodhisattva who saves people from fire and water. ”

The Anseong gambling king can always find countless high-sounding reasons for his loss, and the point is that there seems to be nothing wrong with saying it.

However, Jiangbei is too lazy to worry about these things, in fact, Liang Liang is still very measured in this regard, and there is nothing wrong with it except for selling his family property.

Next, they visited the store under the guidance of the person in charge of taking care of the store, and the area of the upper two floors with a total of 300 square meters made Jiangbei very satisfied.

It's a bit expensive to rent a bit expensive, seven hundred and five per square meter, which means that you need to pay more than 200,000 yuan for rent every month.

But in today's era of skyrocketing housing prices, this rent is already relatively reasonable.

"Let's go, go back and go to your sister-in-law to get money to open a store. ”

......

That night, Li Youqing went home and was busy with her notebook, as the person in charge of this anniversary, she needed to handle many things personally, so the workload would be heavier.

Liangliang sat on the sofa opposite with her legs crossed, staring at this Apple computer with bright eyes, and when she couldn't help it, the little girl would ask: "Sister-in-law, have you used this computer for a long time?"

"It's okay, a little more than three years. Li Youqing turned his head without raising his head.

"That's a bit old, it must be very stuck to use, right?" Liang Liang said tentatively while breaking his feet.

"No, I don't use this laptop for gaming, and my office is very smooth. No, what are you asking for?" Li Youqing glanced up at the gambling king and asked suspiciously.

"No... Just ask casually. Liang Liang shook his head, moved his buttocks and turned his back to pretend that nothing happened.

Li Youqing was relatively busy, so he didn't care too much about it, and continued to lower his head to work.

"It's time to eat. ”

At this time, Jiangbei's shouts sounded in the kitchen, and the gambling king hurriedly got up and rushed into the kitchen to help serve the food, and Li Youqing also stopped working and got up to prepare for dinner.

Talking about things at the dinner table has become a habit for the family.

Jiangbei talked about opening a restaurant chain, and hoped that his wife would give him start-up capital.

Li Youqing took a sip of the soup, and when he heard the words, he asked, "You've already found a good store? So fast? And where do you want to develop? Will it be a little too hasty." ”

In her impression, it seems that Jiangbei has never talked to her about catering, and the most recent time was brought up by herself, but less than a month has passed, and her husband has already found a store.

This speed... It's a bit fast.

"It's okay, in fact, I've been doing this research for the past two years. This time, I happened to meet a store with a good location, and you know, it is difficult to find a store with a good location, so I thought about whether to rent it first to avoid the embarrassment of not finding a location at that time. ”

Jiangbei's words are also true, and many times the important factor that determines the success of a restaurant is the geographical location.

"Then what direction are you going to develop? or do you want to be a farmhouse?" Li Youqing agreed with his words and continued to ask.

After all, the matter is related to her husband's entrepreneurial direction, and she, as a wife, must be concerned about it.

Jiang Bei shook his head when he heard this, and said, "The facts have proved that the farmhouse is not good. After two years of my multi-faceted investigation, coupled with Liangliang's opinions, I finally chose to do a hot pot brand chain. ”

"The hot pot is really good, but the competition is a bit fierce, and the market should have matured a long time ago, will it be a little late for you to enter now?" Li Youqing asked with a frown.

"Sister-in-law, what kind of industry is not much competitive pressure these days? Even the roadside vendors selling snacks have to check whether there are any peers within a radius of five kilometers. Gone are the golden days of 30 years ago, and now we can only choose to struggle through the thorns and try to stand out. Liang Liang nibbled on the chicken leg and shook his head and said.

"That's right, but if you want to make the hot pot restaurant stand firm in the market, you have to have your own characteristics that distinguish it from other types of hot pot to attract diners!"

Although Li Youqing is not in business, he is still very smart and accurately found out the key to the problem.

After hearing this, Jiang Bei quietly glanced at the gambling king, and asked thoughtfully: "Then what do you think I have to start to make our hot pot brand distinctive, remembered and attracted by diners?"

"You don't have any ideas?" asked Li Youqing.

Jiang Bei shook his head blankly.

"Then you dare to open a store? Aren't you waiting to lose money!" Li Youqing instantly raised his eyebrows, slapped the table and said: "No, you have to find out the characteristics of the hot pot brand, otherwise the organization has the right to refuse to allocate funds to you." ”

With Li Youqing's words, the hot pot brand that was about to start operation was directly terminated. However, the good news is that Li Youqing seems to have begun to pay attention to this matter, and has set aside part of his mind to understand the market in the direction of hot pot in the catering industry.

This is what Jiangbei wants to see.

gradually shifted Li Youqing's focus in this way, so that she had no time to take care of things in the entertainment industry, and when her popularity declined over time, she would naturally withdraw from the entertainment industry.

However, for the hot pot chain brand plan in the catering industry, Jiangbei is really serious about planning, because this is related to the development direction of his family in the future.

In particular, the gambling king said a sentence that won his heart.

"If we want my sister-in-law to quit the entertainment industry, then we must find a corresponding career direction for her. Instead of your brother waiting for her to leave the entertainment industry and help you manage your catering business, it is better to directly involve her now and drag her forward in the entertainment industry in this way. ”

When people are idle, it is easy to think about things and things.

When people are busy, they don't have time to think about anything else.

This is a simple and practical principle.

So after a brief discussion that night, Jiangbei began to seriously combine the difference between the Azure Star Huaguo hot pot market and the previous life, trying to find some novel ideas to open up the market.

So naturally, in this process, he definitely can't let go of Li Youqing, and he will find a plan to discuss with him every day, constantly arousing the interest of the other party.

But it didn't work out very well.

"I'm going to work on the taste, that is, the hot pot base, do you think it's feasible?"

"Actually, I think most of the hot pot bases are the same, unless the base you mix can be several grades higher than the other party, the effect will not be very good. ”

"Then work on the environment?"

"Which hot pot restaurant has a bad environment now? It is a first-tier big city, and the monthly rent of a hot pot restaurant is a lot of money, who can still be short of that decoration money?"

"Then I really can't think of anything special. "Jiangbei has a 'nothing to do' attitude.

"Think again, I'm sure you can. Li Youqing held Jiangbei's face and encouraged.

"Can't you help me?" Jiang Bei asked.

"Oh, I'm also very busy! Now I have to be responsible for preparing for the anniversary celebration every day, and I will definitely have to start filming film and television dramas, event endorsements, etc., after the celebration, it is difficult to spend a lot of time taking care of your side. So you have to learn to do a lot of things independently. Li Youqing explained bitterly.

Get!

Don't look at Xiao Nizi who doesn't give money, but she still takes things very clearly, separating the couple's careers to avoid mutual influence.

In other words, Li Youqing does not participate in Jiangbei's plan, but Jiangbei's plan must be approved by her before she can take out the money to start a business.

Little Nizi is a goblin, it's really hard to.

However, it is not the point that the plan is not planned, the point is that the wife does not plan to participate, and it is not in line with the original steps.

Fortunately, Zhuge Liang's clever plan was clear, and he immediately patched it.

"Brother, it's time to play a 'friend out of nothing' card. ”
