Chapter 252: Miscellaneous Matters

The younger siblings have already started school, both of them are in high school, Chen Shi personally sent them to school, as for the future school and school, the elder sister will pick them up, because the elder sister has nothing else to do, so she brought them back by the way after school, and took them with her when she went to school.

Chen Shi and Li Yalian finally put their minds on post-production, so they went out early and returned late every day, and they were in the editing room, rarely going to other places, and even packing and taking them with them for dinner. Now there is no takeout, otherwise, they would really have to order takeout every day.

At this time, general restaurants do not deliver food, except for some special restaurants.

Li Yalian has to pack a meal every day at noon, so she complains: "It would be nice if there was a food delivery, after running for so many days, my leg will be broken." ”

Chen Shidao: "Why don't we build our own restaurant, we can order takeout, and after calling to order, we can deliver food directly, what do you think?"

Li Yalian shook her head and said: "How do I know about this kind of thing, it's up to you to think about making money, I just need to watch the movie, it's too complicated, I don't understand, and I don't want to understand it." ”

Li Yalian has already thought about it, she never asks about business matters, and Chen Shi rarely talks to her, mainly because Chen Shi rarely asks, because his way of doing business is more special, he is looking for a partner, paying for himself, coming up with ideas, and then letting others do it, as for what it looks like, he hardly cares, unless he will propose some solutions after a big problem, otherwise, he generally will not go to his own company, in every company, there is no office for him, which can be described as strange.

Chen Shi thought about it and shook his head and said: "Now is not the time, if you do takeout, you can only use the phone, but there are not too many people who call to order, or wait for the Internet to mature, and wait for the popularization of smart phones. ”

There is a very important sign between the Internet and reality, that is, online payment means, at this time, even Alipay has not been made, therefore, there is a very huge gap between the Internet and reality, only young people play games or browse other well-known websites, the traffic of this network name is very small, if smartphones are popular, then everything will fall into place.

couldn't get a takeaway, Chen Shi said again: "Hello, the boss has discussed, just let him deliver it every day, you are really tired of running around." ”

Li Yalian said: "The boss is unwilling, I said it, but he said that he was very busy and had no time." ”

Chen Shi smiled: "It's not easy, you give him a little more money, I think, no boss will be unhappy, he doesn't do it and find another one, anyway, we will have a while to finish, I feel distressed when you are tired, it is not a big deal to give more money, we are not short of money." ”

At this time, although Chen Shi is not short of money, Li Yalian's habit of money is still very thrifty, and she is not extravagant, but the appearance of a good wife and mother, she will save what she should save, and she will definitely not waste it, nor show off, let alone a hundred catties, she has never been a woman who worships money.

Chen Shi insisted, Li Yalian only said yes, and the boss really came to deliver the food the next day. Chen Shi took the opportunity to stop the boss, smoked a cigarette and handed it to him.

The boss was not polite, he took the cigarette and smoked it, Chen Shi settled the money, asked the boss to sit down and said: "I have something I want to ask you, I don't know if you want to listen to me, and I don't know if you have time." ”

The boss had just smoked his cigarette, and he was going to do his business later, of course, it was not easy to refuse, so he said: "If there is anything, you can say it directly, I am very direct, let's not be so polite." ”

Chen Shi was overjoyed, clapped his hands and said: "So I'll say it directly, I want to ask you about the business of the restaurant, don't get me wrong, I don't have any malicious intentions, I just want to do an investigation, I want to do a takeaway business, I don't know if there is such a possibility, therefore, don't misunderstand." ”

The boss said: "The takeaway business is not easy to do, one is because there is no time, the other is because it is not convenient to call to order, some dishes are not clear on the phone, even if they can be said clearly, but some places to order food are very far away, and they cannot be delivered, it is difficult to pass the fare alone, you have no money if the fee is low, and people are not happy if the charge is high, no one is willing to order takeout." ”

Chen Shi nodded, and said with a little thought: "What if you specialize in a food delivery team?" Sell motorcycles, or bicycles, divide regions, divide sections, and open restaurants all over the city, no matter where you order, it will be delivered within half an hour, if so, wouldn't it be better?"

The boss said with a smile: "Brother, you are a capable person, I am just a small boss, if the restaurant can open all over the city, I would have done it a long time ago, but there are still some problems in the middle, such as the loss of vehicles, motorcycles are also expensive and expensive, it is difficult to maintain maintenance alone, and the bicycle is too slow, too tired, if there is an electric bicycle." ”

Now electric cars have not come out, and the two wheels running on the road are motorcycles.

After chatting with the boss for a while, Chen Shi had some experience, and then thanked the boss and let him leave. After that, he and Li Yalian and a group of staff continued to edit the movie, while editing, they also had to watch the special effects, and the special effects personnel were also rendering, trying their best to hurry, Chen Shi was not in a hurry, even if it was finished, anyway, this movie, he didn't regard it as a commodity, but only as the crystallization of him and Li Yalian.

During the day, they were doing movies in the studio, and the two of them went home at night, and when they got home, their sister had already cooked the meal, so it was very comfortable to have food when they returned.

The parents' small business is booming, and at the dinner table, my mother has been showing off and said: "Our braised meat business is good, we buy it every day, and the old Wang's craftsmanship is still good, but people are a little lazy, if they don't urge him, he is not willing to work, and another point is that he likes to drink, sometimes he is drunk, and he talks nonsense all day long, and he is annoyed to death." ”

Chen Shi smiled: "Mom, do you want to open him, let's hire a master again?"

The mother looked at the father, and the father said, "What are you doing when you open a family?" What about Lao Wang, although he likes to drink, but he has never had any major incidents, his skills are good, and he is honest, where do you find such a person?

Chen Shi said: "If you don't open it, you won't open it, and I didn't insist on it, why are you so atmospheric?"

Father may not be angry, but he is just unhappy, he thinks that Chen Shi has some money and casually fires people, which is not right.

He taught: "Don't look down on people when you have some money, don't forget that you yourself were once a poor man, and don't forget that your father and I were a peasant, and this person can't forget his roots, you know." ”

Where did Chen Shi dare to refute, Zhizhi nodded yes.

Chen Shi could only quickly divert the topic and asked, "Dad, if someone calls you to deliver the goods, will you deliver it?"

The father said solemnly: "Why don't you send it?" When someone calls, he can afford you and give you face, otherwise, why doesn't he call someone else but you? Therefore, no matter what the conditions are, it must be delivered, and even if the transaction loses money, it doesn't matter, the key is to grasp that person's mind, let him remember your small shop, and then become a regular customer. ”

The father's means of doing business are very primitive, and this approach can't make a fortune, but it can keep integrity and make a reputation.

Chen Shi said: "Then what if there are a lot of such people? What should you do? If you send it, you will lose money, and if you don't send it, there will be no integrity." ”

My father didn't know what to do now, after all, he hadn't seen anything big, and there wouldn't be so many customers in business, so he thought for a while and said, "How can there be so many people? Do you think business will be so good?"

Chen Shi smiled and said no more. Then he asked his father: "Dad, your business is so good, do you want to expand, and build a few stores in other demolitions, so that it will get bigger and bigger, and when you do more than a dozen stores, you will be the big boss, think about it, the whole braised pork eaten in Lincheng is made by you, what a lucky thing this is? I feel my blood boiling when I think about it, you say yes?"

Mother interjected: "It's okay to expand, but you have to ask someone to help, it's not easy to manage people, an old king is enough to choke, if there are a few more people, it's not easy to manage, sometimes it's too heavy, people are unhappy, sometimes you don't say it, it's not good, it's very difficult." ”

Mother is a hard-faced and soft-hearted person, therefore, a lot of words are not willing to be said, if she is asked to manage the management, then, she will not think that she is higher than others, nor will she feel that she has the right, she will only be friends with others, in this way, of course, there is no way to manage, people will be loose and do not look, will be very lazy.

Chen Shidao: "Mom, if you don't know how to take care of it, ask someone to take care of it, someone is in charge of this kind of thing, people's profession is to help you manage the company, help you manage the store, this is called a professional manager, you invite a professional manager, let him help you take care of the store, and then you don't have to be so busy, you have time to go to see, no time at home, when you want to go, don't worry about no one is there, employees will be lazy, etc." ”

My father asked, "What is a professional manager, what is a professional manager, what is the use, and how much does it cost?"

When my father thought of inviting someone, of course he thought of money, if it was too expensive, of course he didn't agree, and he wouldn't agree to it at the price of a professional manager, but Chen Shi wanted to help his father and mother make the store bigger, so he thought about it and said: "Some are expensive, some are not expensive, it depends on the ability of the person, but if you have a small shop, it will be almost the same if a person gives him 2,000 yuan." ”

Two thousand yuan is probably the maximum amount that parents can accept, and, Chen Shi estimates, they may not be willing to.

When my mother heard this, she was really not happy and said, "No, two thousand yuan is too expensive, and I can live for several months." ”

Chen Shi persuaded: "Mom, you have to see how capable people are, if he can help you make the store bigger? From one to two, then two to four, four to bar, and so on, make your braised meat shop the first in China, so that you will be famous, and such a person is worth 2,000 yuan." ”

The father shook his head and said, "Let's see! We haven't thought about necessarily expanding, even if we are optimistic about this family, it is not a big deal if we can't expand." ”

Chen Shi sighed, his parents' thinking is still not suitable for being businessmen, they are all small farmers, content with the status quo, they don't know that in this world, either big fish eat small fish or small fish eat shrimp. Business is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat.

After chatting with his parents, Chen Shi didn't take this matter to heart, he was not worried that his parents' shop would go out of business, even if it went out of business, it didn't matter, that is, a place for the two of them to have fun, so that they would not be so lonely in the city, they would have something to do, and they would not be so boring.

If you go bankrupt, the most you can do is build a new one. The next day, Chen Shi and Li Yalian did the same thing in the later stage, there was no one at home, the younger brothers and sisters went to school, and the elder sister also went to school, of course the parents had to go to the store to watch, they had to go every day, otherwise they would not feel at ease and could not let go.

The post-production is very long, from editing and dubbing, material processing, audio processing, special effects processing, etc., every work needs to be checked one by one, and the people under them are not very familiar, and they don't know too much, so many times it is a black eye, and everyone has to cross the road by feeling the stones.

It is not easy to use a movie to train a group of post-production personnel, and these people have made more than one movie, and they have at least participated in the production of the drunken man, of course, many of them are people who have made commercials with Xiao Gao.

Although he has a little experience, he has never made a movie, and he has not dealt with such a large production material as Gu, so everyone is cautious, and everyone has to ask Chen Shi and Li Yalian for the decision they make.

The two of them are not from professional backgrounds, and they don't understand, they just stare at the screen, say the results they want, and then let the people below figure out how to do it, and they really can't help the rest.

Fortunately, these people are very patient, even if they can't do it, they will try their best to find materials, very hard, and everyone is almost sleepless work, which also speeds up the progress of the work a lot.

Chen Shi is generally satisfied, because although there are special effects, the special effects of this movie are very few, very short, and the time for each special effect is less than a second. The scenes he does with special effects are all big fight scenes, and the ancient dragon style fight is done in an instant, so he pays attention to the sound effect, and the sound effect before the fight is very important. Before the fight, in addition to the foreshadowing on the actors' movements, of course, the rendering of sound effects is the most important.
