Chapter 69: Popularity
The second-rate son who inquired about the news combed his hair for twenty-eight minutes, and the long light yellow hair on his forehead was combed to the side to cover his right eye, and the left eye that was exposed was obviously with an excited look: "Boss, I saw it, that game is called Half Life, it's very fun." I watched it in the back for a while, it was so exciting. ”
Boss You glanced at the second-rate man with disdain and said, "You've been fucking gone for almost two hours, and you still told me that you only watched it for a while?"
The second-rate son said weakly: "Boss, I just want to investigate for a while, and the longer I investigate, the more information I have." ”
"Go, go, don't talk to me. Did you understand how their games are made?"
"Boss, how else can I get the game? of course find a computer company. There was a hint of contempt in the eyes of the second-rate son.
Boss You's face was a little red on the spot, he had to ask such a simple question, and he was despised by the second-rate son he was in captivity, and he was really embarrassed to go back the more he lived.
"Alright, alright, you go play. Be careful not to break your computer again. Boss You waved his hand very shamelessly, signaling the second-rate son not to be an eyesore, and hurry up and play his own.
"Okay. The second-rate son agreed, and while the boss was not paying attention, he turned around and ran into the Internet café next door. was so angry that Boss You almost rushed into the next door and brought back this bastard who ate inside and out.
Boss You watched the plummeting popularity of his Internet café, and thought about finding someone from a computer company to put half a life on his Internet café tomorrow. Anyway, the Internet café is not saturated yet, and there are many players who go online, as long as the game is consistent, I am not afraid of no business.
Just thinking about it, the second-rate man who had just slipped to the next door ran back again, and excitedly shouted to Boss You: "Boss, I inquired, the Internet café next door is a game that was updated two days earlier, and the little boss personally took the host computer to the computer city to get it." ”
Boss You suddenly realized, no wonder the little kid two days earlier was not worried about the popularity of the Internet café at all, he must have taken advantage of the transfer of the Internet café and took the console to the computer city to update the game by the way. When going through the transfer procedures, it will not delay the opening of the Internet café, but also gather popularity one step ahead, killing two birds with one stone, this little kid's abacus is high.
But I didn't want to think that at this time, Li Zhengyi next door was snickering, and the news that the second-rate son found out was deliberately released to him by the cross-eyed trustee. Li Zhengyi knew that this game could not maintain a long-term advantage, at most in two or three days, all Internet cafes would bloom everywhere, resounding with the unique gunshot of Half-Life. And deliberately putting the news is to mislead the boss next door and ask him to move the host to the computer city, which will waste his time for a day. At this time, a day of delay is more than a thousand oceans, and it will not break you, but at least it will disgust you.
Li Zhengyi, who succeeded in his petty conspiracy, was happily counting money in the bar, and the computers in the Internet café had not stopped for a day today, and the entire Internet café was running at full capacity. Now at more than nine o'clock, in another two hours, you can take advantage of the overnight fee, and collect all the fees of all the players on the machine, plus the fees that have been settled, a total of more than 1,500 yuan. If retail goods such as non-staple food, beverages, and cigarettes are included, the daily income will reach nearly 1,800 yuan.
Li Zhengyi, who was calculating the income results, almost went crazy, holding the calculator and starting to calculate the gross profit for January, estimating the cost of operating expenses for a month. After doing the math, I looked at the numbers on the calculator and was a little dumbfounded. Nima, this is just a small Internet café with 30 machines, and the profit can reach nearly 40,000 yuan a month. Although the software fee, Internet fee, and rent fee are included, the utility fee, labor fee and a small business tax are deducted.
At present, the business tax is not withheld according to the business income, but is set by the tax department, and it can be levied and paid according to its prescribed amount. The taxes and fees of Internet cafes in the entire Qingyun District are paid at a fixed tax of 60 yuan per computer per month.
It will be able to return to the capital in more than two months, and he will be rich, Li Zhengyi leaned on the boss's chair and thought dizzily.
The boss next door was also thinking dizzily, he was dizzy by the noisy gunshots and explosions next door. Boss You secretly decided in his heart that he would go to the computer city immediately tomorrow morning.
Boss You did what he said, and early the next morning, he closed the door, dismantled the host, drove his small Jetta ATI, and ran to the computer city in a hurry.
As soon as the Internet café next door closed, some of the players who were originally diverted poured into the Zhengyi Internet café. From 8 a.m., there are waves of players waiting to get on board to play Half-Life. By noon, there were even cases where a fight almost broke out because of a scramble for a computer. Li Zhengyi even felt that it was better for Lao You next door to come back as soon as possible, so as not to have an accident here. In case the computer is broken, the biggest loss is the owner of the Internet café.
In the evening, Lao You next door drove his little Jetta back to the Internet café. Loaded the host, called the gangsters in his captivity, and began to expand the volume and play Half-Life with full energy. Obviously, Boss You also likes to transmit news to the outside world through his voice, and my old You's Internet café is also loaded with half a life.
Not to mention, the players who were waiting to get on the machine in an Internet café ran to the next door like a wind, happily turned on the machine, and then had a lot of fun with a bang.
Li Zhengyi shook his head and smiled, now Internet cafes belong to the seller's market, and there is no shortage of customers. In a few months or half a year, the number of Internet cafes will increase sharply, and the attendance rate of each Internet café will not reach a saturated state, and a price war will begin to grab customer resources. That's when the owners of Internet cafes really show their powers.
The days have become dull, and Li Zhengyi has gone from the excitement when he first received the money to the current calm. There are more than 1,000 and nearly 2,000 money in his hand every day, and he goes to the bank every three days to deposit money, after all, there is too much cash in the store and it is not safe.
These days, the business in the store is in order, and the three-person store is a little unbearable, managing it day and night, and there is no free time at all. But Li Zhengyi was reluctant to spend money to hire people for the time being, and finally Luo Wei thought of a way to pick out an honest and reliable one from his gangsters and stuff it into an Internet café to help.
Li Zhengyi usually takes charge of the day shift, and Luo Wei, Dou Cross-eye, and the gangster Wang Lishun called by Luo Wei take turns to take charge of the day shift and the night shift. The night shift is mainly to stay up late, and those who can stay up will be easy to manage the night shift, and those who can't stay up will be tired to death. Therefore, the vast majority of night shifts are cross-eyed, and this product is better than others after staying up at night every day, resting for a morning, and reviving absolutely in situ in the afternoon, and the two eyeballs that come together are always in good spirits.
On this day, the weather was very good in the morning, cloudless, Li Zhengyi got up early and ran around, had breakfast, and as usual, faced the refreshing morning breeze and came to Zhengyi Internet Cafe.
As soon as he entered the store, he came up and said, "Brother Li, a computer is broken." ”
"Broken?" Li Zhengyi asked in surprise, "What's the situation?"
"I don't understand, I can't turn it on, and I don't have any reaction after turning it on. "Cross-eyed is telling the truth.
Li Zhengyi knew that at the level of cross-eyedness, it was already remarkable to be able to say that there was no reaction at all after turning on the machine. It is unrealistic to expect him to say more phenomena or causes. So I just asked him to take it to check the computer and take a look for himself.
