Chapter 27: Software Companies

On the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, Fang Yi's second phase of the Century Internet Cafe was officially opened, but the grid between the first phase and the second phase was removed, revealing the wide hall of the second phase, and a banner of the second phase of the Century Internet café was hung at the door of the hall, just at 8 o'clock in the morning, there were students going to the Internet café one after another, with new equipment, the 20 old equipment of the first phase met a cold reception, and all people had to go to the second phase to surf the Internet.

"Fang Yi, what should I do, now there is no one in the 20 machines in our first phase," Huang Tao said worriedly at the empty position of the first phase.

Fang Yi patted him on the shoulder and said comfortingly, "It's okay, new things must be more sought after than old things, and when the 100 machines in the second phase are full, the 20 machines in the first phase will be sought after."

Now the Century Internet Cafe is doing exclusive business, as soon as Fang Yi's Internet café opens, there is no market for those black Internet cafes in the community, they only have to reduce prices to attract customers, but there is only 3 yuan an hour of space, how much room for price reduction, especially now it is still the world of LAN, Red Alert, Empire Era dominates the entire Internet café, with a huge LAN of 120 machines, and has an absolute advantage in the competition at this time.

"Fang Yi, now I have 120 machines, but now the cashier's pressure is too great, and he keeps registering the boarding time of each guest in the notebook, paying the amount, reminding him to get off the machine, and selling certain goods every day, so he can't be busy at all, shouldn't he increase the number of people?" Tang Chun said beside Fang Yi.

Fang Yi thought for a while, "Brother Chun, the current cashier method is only temporary, I will deal with this matter immediately, I not only have to solve the cashier problem of the Internet café, but also solve some other problems with me."

"Chen Zhao, help me contact the students of the University of Electronic Science and Technology are returning to school now? If you arrive, ask them to ask them and say that I will invite them to eat enough," Fang Yi said to Chen Zhao, who was taking account at the cash register.

"What time do you have to make an appointment with them?" Chen Zhao asked.

"The sooner the better"

The second phase of the Internet café was officially put into operation, because of personnel problems and cashier problems, Fang Yi and Huang Tao and other 8 people helped together in the Internet café on this day, managing 20 machines and managing 120 machines The workload is not at all a level, especially the management methods and methods are still very primitive, and several people feel that their legs are going to be broken.

At 9 o'clock in the morning the next day, Chen Zhao counted the business situation of the previous day and reported to everyone, "The whole day starts at 8 o'clock in the morning and ends at 8 o'clock this morning, and the turnover of the Internet café throughout the day is 5880 yuan, mainly in the morning, there are still many people who do not know that we have opened the second phase, so in the morning our machine occupancy rate is only 80%, and from 1 o'clock at noon, our machine occupancy rate has reached 100% , and we wait for more people, but the waiting time before the average of 50 minutes, has become 35 minutes, waiting for the guest satisfaction has also been greatly improved; in the sales part of the goods, the whole day sales of goods 2320 yuan, mainly due to the increase in the flow of people after the increase in the machine, the overall turnover of the whole day is 8100 yuan, if according to this turnover, our monthly turnover will reach nearly 250,000 yuan. ”

After Chen Zhao finished speaking, there was a burst of applause in the dormitory, but Fang Yi, who was still lying on the bed, was very calm, the Internet café appeared to gradually decline, and there was a golden period of a whole decade, and after this year's "Legend" was launched, the flow of the Internet café will be more stable, and the stickiness of the online game for players will be greater, with a turnover of more than 200,000 per month, which is what he expected.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Fang Yi and Chen Zhao met two part-time workers at the Century Internet Bar, Li Long, a fourth-year student majoring in computer science at the University of Electronic Science and Technology, and Zhao Li, a first-year student majoring in computer science at the University of Electronic Science and Technology.

The four people sat down, Fang Yi and them had a polite courtesy, and took out two souvenirs brought from their hometown as a new meeting gift, mainly this kind of etiquette and exchange customs of the Chinese, and it is not strange to have many people.

"Mr. Fang, you are too polite, it was supposed to be the two of us visiting you, how can you be embarrassed to let you break the bank" Zhao Li stood up and said politely.

"Brother Zhao, if you are polite, it will be boring, you and Brother Li are older than me, and our Internet café is still bothering you to help us maintain, everyone is polite and polite, and it is not easy to speak, in the future, you will accept me Xiaoyi, if it is really not good, you will accept my name Fang Yi" Fang Yi said politely, in the future, you will have to rely on these two technical experts, but you can't let the two of them distance themselves.

"Hehe, Fang Yi, thank you for the gift," Zhao Li said embarrassedly. Li Long next to him also stood up and said.

"Brother Zhao, Brother Li, I came to you today mainly for a few things, one is to see if you have come back to school, and the second is to continue to cooperate with you, yesterday the second phase of our Internet café 100 machines was officially put into operation, and I will have to trouble the two of you to help in the future, and third, I want to ask the two of you what you think after graduation" Fang Yi said on the topic.

Zhao Li and Li Long glanced at each other, "Fang Yi, I will graduate in June this year, and I am going to be admitted to the graduate school of our school, so I will stay in the school for a few years," Li Long said.

Fang Yi looked at Zhao Li, "I'm still in my first year of graduate school, there are still two years before graduation, I plan to go to Guangzhou after graduation, I heard that the IT industry over there has been developing rapidly in the past two years."

Fang Yi didn't speak, lowered his head and drank two sips of the hot juice in the cup, and then looked at the two of them, "Brother Li, Brother Zhao, it's like this, I want to set up a studio, I want to invite the two of you to join, are you interested?" Fang Yi said.

Li Long and Zhao Li, you look at me, I look at you, and then look at Fang Yi, or Zhao Li opened his mouth and asked, "Fang Yi, what studio do you want to open, the two of us don't know anything else except computers?"

Fang Yi looked at them with a smile, "I built a studio, and the first thing I thought of was looking for the two of you, do you think I will do anything other than computers?"

"But you're studying accounting, how did you think of doing a computer studio?" asked Li Long.

"Who said you can't work in a computer without learning a computer?"

"So which part of the computer are you going to make, the computer you know is actually very fine," Zhao Li said.

"I'm going to start with computer software first, make software first, and then make software-related hardware."

"Yo, Fang Yi, it seems that you have been planning for a long time," Zhao Li said with a smile.

"Let's just say that, now you need to find a few more people from your friends and friends to do this together, the specific personnel are determined by Zhao Li, Li Long's hardware will be on the software, so you cooperate with Zhao Li's related work in the early stage" Fang Yi said, "Brother Zhao, is there a problem?"

Zhao Li thought for two minutes and nodded heavily.

"This is Chen Zhao, you should also know him, you will all look for him for relevant matters in the future, and he will be responsible for your logistics and administrative related matters" said Chen Zhao and introduced Chen Zhao to the two of them in a formal way again.

"We will work out the specific shares, structure, and salary of the studio in a cycle, and discuss it with you, and the two of you can go and find the right people, remember one thing, we only need the best"

The four of them talked until half past five before it ended, and Zhao Li and the two of them originally wanted to invite Fang Yi and the two of them to eat enough, but Fang Yi refused, because after finalizing the matter here, he needed to go back immediately to hold a meeting of all shareholders.

"Brother Zhao, we are going back to school now, you call the dormitory first, ask them not to run around after dinner, wait for me in the dormitory, we will call a meeting as soon as we go back, and by the way, call back the staff who stayed on duty in the Internet café, we are a meeting of all shareholders this time" Fang Yi said very formally. Then Chen Zhao went to find a pay phone, Fang Yi walked to the side and bought a few breads, cakes and mineral water, this is the dinner of the two of them today, today's meeting is very important, there will be a lot of matters to discuss, so there is no time to eat dinner alone.

Chen Zhao came back after the call, they began to wait for the bus, Chen Zhao proposed to take a taxi back, but Fang Yi decided to take the bus back, not to save money, because Fang Yi still needs some time to sort out his thoughts and sort out everything, and this time on the bus is just right.

With the injection of 300,000 yuan from the Agricultural Bank of China, the Century Internet Cafe has embarked on the fast lane, with an income of nearly 10,000 yuan per day, so that Fang Yi has the confidence to start the next important layout, focusing on the cashier management software of the service industry, attracting customers through the huge consumer groups in the service industry, and then launching its own payment system, which will be used as a link to open up these joints.
