Chapter 53: Reforming the Budokan
Gangneung also thought that if he had a job, it would be easier to make money.
Only then did he realize that he had Shen Yuhan who had made a special trip to take the blame.
The martial arts hall did not pay a commission to Shen's company for half a month, just 2 million a month, which is 12 million for half a year.
Such a big gap, if it weren't for Shen Yuhan's love for martial arts, all the gyms on Tianwu Street would probably have to close.
But even so, Gangneung was still very reluctant to let his subordinates suffer with him.
What's more, now that there are so many more people in the martial arts hall, if the operation problem is not solved quickly, I am afraid that it will not be long before the commission of 2 million yuan, even the food and accommodation of the martial artists may not be guaranteed.
"Brother Long, from now on, we might as well be like this. ”
Jiang Ling thought for a moment, "We have a lot more martial artists here, so it's better to change the competition every half a month to once a week." ”
"Once a week, I've been planning to do this for a long time, no problem!"
Huo Long nodded, "We didn't have many martial artists in the past, but now that we have so many martial artists, it's normal." ”
"One more point. ”
Jiang Ling thought of something again, "Do you still need to charge an entrance fee for the weekly competition?"
"Yes!"
"How much is the entrance fee?"
"A one-time is 200 yuan, the first-level VIP is 1000, the second-level VIP is 5000, the third-level VIP is 30000, and the top VIP is 50000, all of which are paid in cash at one time. Huo Long said.
Cash payment is really troublesome.
"How many people have a card?"
"Very few, most of them are disposable cards, most of them don't come once, and there is not one of the top VIPs until now. ”
Jiang Ling frowned: "Is it because the VIP card is too expensive?"
Huo Long shook his head: "Actually, it's really not expensive, there are a lot of things like VIPs in society, in fact, most rich people don't care about this money at all, just to prove their status, think about it, VIPs on Perak Online cost hundreds of yuan a month, and even hundreds of thousands, we only have so much money in the past half a year, it's just a free gift." ”
Proof of status?
Gangneung thought about it, and it was.
The silver membership of Perak.com is 500 yuan, and the highest grandmaster membership is 180,000 a month, and he really can't understand why anyone would make such an expensive membership.
Now think about it, or 180,000 in the eyes of others, is the money for a meal.
Besides, you don't have to take the money online out of your pocket, and you don't feel distressed, otherwise why do so many girls in school like to shop online, one is convenient, but not distressed.
Since it's not a question of the VIP card, it's a question of the content of the event.
In order to allow more people to apply for cards, it is necessary not only to increase the interest of the content, but also to increase the dependence of members on the budokan.
Let them come once and want to come a second time, they can't stop and can't extricate themselves.
"Brother Long, our martial arts hall needs to be reformed!"
Jiang Ling said solemnly, "From now on, don't pay cash, now mobile payment is used outside, which is very convenient, but we can be a little more traditional and keep the VIP card system, but we have to set another level!"
"Okay, how do you set the level?" Huo Long asked.
"Simple. ”
Jiang Ling thought of the few games that are less popular on the Internet, and adults and children love to play, so he immediately said.
"Let's set up five levels first, silver, gold, diamond, master and grandmaster, and then I'll go outside to get a credit card machine in a while, so that our score will not be high!"
Huo Long nodded: "Indeed, the name sounds much more domineering, or I will send someone outside to buy a machine in a while, you don't go." ”
"No, no, I'll go myself. ”
Jiang Ling waved his hand, "I haven't gone out today, and I'm almost suffocated in the martial arts hall, so it's time to go out to exercise and breathe fresh air." ”
Although Gangneung is a computer science college, it has become a habit of exercising every day.
Even during the final exams every year, he doesn't stay in the dormitory every day like other students, and he still finds some time to exercise in the morning and evening, even if it's a walk.
"Okay! Huo Long didn't say much, turned around and walked out of the house.
"I didn't expect the operation of this store to be so bad. ”
Jiang Ling pouted, although he felt a lot of pressure on his shoulders, he still calmed down, after all, in this society, it is already very rare to have a self-managed enterprise.
What's more, there is still the Shen Family Group behind her, and it is better to hold her thighs than to start her own business.
Nowadays, college students starting a business is simply tantamount to failure, with too much investment and too little gain.
If you are not careful, you may fall into the trap of others, and it is good to lose money, and some even lose their lives.
"Forget it, let's go step by step, don't be in a hurry to repay the arrears first, increase the turnover first!"
Gangneung thought about it and decided to take it one step at a time.
After resting for a while, Gangneung walked out of the martial arts hall, and there was no place to sell credit card machines on Tianwu Avenue at all.
So Gangneung searched for it with the navigation on his mobile phone and confirmed that a building materials market five kilometers away should have the materials he needed.
Just go, Gangneung didn't say a word, and ran towards the building materials market.
In less than half an hour, he reached the location indicated on the map.
When I looked up, thirty meters away on the side of the road, there was a tall shelf with the words "Yonghe Building Materials Market" written in red pen.
The name is quite down-to-earth, Jiang Ling smiled, and immediately raised his legs and walked into it.
After walking around for about five minutes, Gangneung found that there were all shops that bought furniture, and there was really no place to sell credit card machines.
In desperation, he had to walk into a store and ask about the situation.
Inside the store, there are all kinds of Chinese knots hanging on the top of the walls, some are phoenix nirvana, some are dragon tail swinging, and even Pikachu, all of which are lifelike and very beautiful.
A young man in his early twenties in the store saw a customer and quickly got up from his chair.
"Hello, what would you like to buy?"
Jiang Ling casually picked up a Chinese knot: "How much is this?"
"Sixty, I'll give you a discount, I'll ask you fifty-five!" the young man laughed.
"Give me a whole thing, and I'll get another one by the way!"
Jiang Ling said, picking up another Chinese knot, "I want both, I'll give you just a hundred." ”
"Okay!"
The young man didn't think about it, and directly agreed.
After all, their family makes Chinese knots, and the red line is very cheap, and they can make a lot of money every time they sell one.
The young man picked up two Chinese knots, found a bag and put them up, and handed them to Jiang Ling: "Little brother, you didn't come to me to buy Chinese knots, right?"
Seeing through the purpose at a glance, Jiang Ling smiled: "Yes, I want to ask you, where are the credit card machines sold? ”
"You're the boss?"
The young man glanced at Jiang Ling in surprise.
"It's not. Jiang Ling shook his head, "To tell you the truth, our shop owner wants to update the equipment in the store, so I made a special trip to buy something, if I can't buy it, I plan to go back, saving myself a waste of effort here." ”
Jiang Ling said, a hint of impatience on his face.
The young man smiled: "Brother, do you really want to buy a credit card machine?"
"Of course I'm going to buy it, if you have me, I'll buy it from you, and I'll leave without me. ”
"Don't worry, I'll call our boss out first. With that, the young man turned and walked into the store.
Jiang Ling smiled, feeling that this small shop was strange and mysterious, could it be some kind of underworld organization's underground den like in the movie?
After a while, a middle-aged man walked out of the house, who looked like the young man's father, and looked at Gangneung with a smile on his face.
"Little brother, do you want a credit card machine?"
"Yes, do you have one?" said Gangneung curiously.
The middle-aged man patted his chest, "Of course there is, our credit card machine here can not only swipe cards, but also have some special functions, if you don't believe me, you can enter the house for me, and I will show you." ”
"Medium!" Jiang Ling replied and followed the boss into the house.
As soon as I entered the house, Gangneung saw a strange-looking credit card machine in the house, which looked like a monitoring device at the entrance and exit of the railway station, and the sense of science and technology was bursting.
"It's... Credit card machine?"
Gangneung looked up and down and said uncertainly.
The boss patted the shell of the machine: "Little brother, this is the new credit card machine that our family has researched, which can not only swipe the card, but also bring the VIP a unique super enjoyment." ”
"A super treat like no other?"
Gangneung circled in front of the machine, "Boss, what's so special about your machine? Don't try to fool me, I'm a local, a local college student!"
"Hey, how can you fool you, little brother, we are all serious people, and we are all serious business. ”
The boss said as he pulled out a VIP card from the drawer, "Little brother, if you don't believe it, I'll prove it to you now, how powerful our family's invention is." ”
The boss said, swiping the VIP card on the card machine.
"Drop, congratulations on your fortune, congratulations on your wonderful, I wish you good luck in the new year, and all the bad luck will be scattered!"
Oops?
That's kind of interesting.
