Chapter 967: Lido is old
"Then I won't accept your help!" Jin Yue is a typical child who has hated from love to hate.
"Look, you haven't completely changed the mistakes when you were a child, when did you beat me when you played a petty character? Every time you end up losing, I thought you had learned a lesson, but you pretended. When we are young, we can only think about ourselves, but when we grow up, we can't be, just like you just said, I'm a not very responsible person, but you're not. You still have your parents, and your future life, can you throw away all the ideals you have been pursuing all these years? and then become a vassal of mine, and you can only see me for one month a year? Raise your own children? You still have to face the fingers of the people around you? If you don't succeed, I don't want you to succeed, then you won't be the Golden Moon I like. Hong Tao was not in a hurry, he believed that Jin Yue would not be so emotional, the things he had instilled in her since she was a child had already affected her outlook on life, and she was basically stereotyped, she might have temporary impulses, but her nature was difficult to change suddenly.
“…… You did this, didn't you turn me into your vassal?These things were given to me by you, without you, I would be useless, what's the point?" Sure enough, Jin Yue wiped her tears and began to raise the bar with Hong Tao, which showed that her sanity had prevailed again.
"Wrong...... People need the help of others in their lives, and I also got to this point today with the help of the second master, Han Xue, and my eldest aunt, so I can't say that I am their vassal, right? If I help you like this......, will you still say that you are my vassal? When you encounter something, turn around here more often, logical analysis. Don't substitute emotion for logic. Hong Tao finally finished smoking most of the cigar and saw that Jin Yue had been wrinkling his nose. He simply didn't order the second one.
"I'm here to give you a higher platform, but how you're going to jump on this platform, I can't predict. So in the end, what you can achieve is still determined by your own ability, and it is not unrelated to me, but it is not a decisive relationship. In the future, if you are developed, maybe I will be broken, but if you help me like this, I will never say that I am your vassal. Actually, I especially like to eat soft rice. If you plan to raise a little white face in the future, I will book a place first, you see my body bones, no worse than others, right? Hong Tao talked very seriously for a long time today, but now he can't help it, and the nonsense begins to slip out involuntarily again.
"I'm not like you! I wish we hadn't grown up. It's like when I was a kid. I used to be too naïve and thought too easy about Yiqiē, but now I know that many of the things you said are true, and I already feel tired. Jin Yue let Hong Tao interrupt like this. also recovered from the state just now, and the awkward atmosphere between the two disappeared, and he talked about what happened when he was a child.
"Alas...... Let's take it slowly. When I'm tired, it's still to come. Remember what I said, don't force yourself to do things that are detrimental to your dignity and personality. No matter how great the temptation is, I can give it to you in the same way. If that time comes. Why don't you come to me, I'll marry you, and being the wife of the richest man in the world is no worse than being a minister, right? Open the door first, Dajiang is estimated to be about to fall asleep on the steps, and there is no need to hide these things from him in the future, and the two of us have been thinking about how to turn you into our daughter-in-law since the third year of elementary school, which is not a secret at all. Hong Tao stretched out his hand, pinched Jin Yue's nose, and warned her. This is a sign before he got angry when he was a child, if he didn't listen to this, then Jin Yue would be tortured by Hong Tao in various ways, and it would be useless to cry hoarsely.
This time the three of them were drunk again, and by the time they were ready to disperse, there was no one in the backyard for a long time, and when they looked at their watches, they found that it was almost time to start dinner at half past four in the afternoon! Like the last time, it was still Hong Tao who carried the dazed Jin Yue on his back and walked home along the street, and Dali drove behind. It's just that this time the two of them didn't speak, Hong Tao's back of his neck was always wet, and Jin Yue was crying all the time lying on his back, but he just didn't cry.
"Brother, why did you carry her again? Didn't you break up last time? She didn't drink much at all, you see she doesn't walk shaking!" carried Jin Yue all the way to the mouth of the alley, and she walked in by herself without looking back. Dali couldn't figure it out, for fear that Hong Tao would be deceived by Jin Yue's little tricks, so he kindly reminded Hong Tao.
"It doesn't matter how much you drink or not, it's worse to be drunk in your heart than to be drunk in your body...... You're a cow, I've been playing Nima for a long time, do you understand?" Hong Tao just dragged half a sentence, and suddenly found that he was sitting next to him, this Nima is not a waste of feelings!
"What are you playing? You are not as good as me, a big water mouse, and the cow is full of treasures!" vigorously lived up to expectations, did not understand a word, and was still arguing with Hong Tao about the practical value of cows and mice.
"Are you itchy with your flesh and skin? I'll be comfortable if I drop you!" Hong Tao let the vigorous chanting in his ear be annoying, and now it should be the atmosphere of reciting a poem, although he is not very good at it.
"Oops...... I've been waiting for you to say this for a long time, who doesn't know it, walking, in the Fangzhuang office building!" He was afraid of Hong Tao's brain, but he had never been afraid of Hong Tao's body, and the happiest thing he was to torture this person who was smarter than him under his body: Let your brain be better than mine! Let your girl be smarter than me!
Although the Lido Beauty Salon has been sold to someone else, the business location is still the original house, but the rent has to be paid to the home property company on time. Compared to two years ago, the Lido now is like a middle-aged and elderly woman in her 40s, her skin has lost its luster, her hair has begun to dry out, and her figure has gradually lost shape.
In the past, when Lidu was in Hong Tao's hands, he basically had to decorate on a small scale every year, such as changing a neon shape, adding a set wall, getting a new front desk or something, and even the work clothes of employees were changed to new styles every year. No matter how beautiful the thing is, it will be boring to watch it for a long time, adding some fresh elements can keep old customers in a better mood. In addition, he will continue to introduce some new hairstyles and new beauty methods at a pace of 3 or 4 months, which is the trick to keeping a beauty salon young forever.
But this qiē change is all built on one basis, that is, profit! Without enough profit, you can't burn money, you can't burn money, you can't stay at the forefront of fashion, even if you are a day later than other stores in updating equipment and hairstyles, then you are also a loser! A loser can't grab the fattest bite of meat, and can only drink soup after him. It doesn't matter if you can't eat meat once or twice, if you have too many times, it will be troublesome. The physique of eating meat is definitely different from the physique of drinking soup, and as time goes by, you will become more and more unable to grab others, and you may not even be able to drink soup in the end.
Without Hong Tao's brain, Lido is only left with its original fame and empty shelves, and the original old employees basically followed Han Xue, and there is no longer the atmosphere that Lido should have, and what follows is the loss of a large number of old customers and members. With the pace of reform and opening up is getting faster and faster, this foreign model of beauty salon is no longer the exclusive domain of Lido, and the competition is gradually fierce, and even a price war has started!
The reason why the high-end service industry is fighting a price war is that it is only for a few people to provide differentiated services! The reason why the high-end service industry is fighting is to win more ordinary customers, and these two things are not the same thing at all. But in the mid-90s, the concept of high-end service industry, most people are not very clear, so Lido's positioning has also changed, put down the body to fight with others, the result is to kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred, high-end customers are lost, low-end customers do not have enough profits, and more and more decline is inevitable.
"Alas...... It's over, it's hopeless!" returned to the largest and most popular Lido Fangzhuang store that year, standing at the door, looking at the few scattered guests and outdated equipment inside, Hong Tao sighed with infinite emotion.
"Brother, this boss can't hold on anymore, and he's already changed his second hand, or let's buy it back and do it ourselves, and spoil them!" Dali also felt very unhappy to see the thriving shop step by step towards destruction, and began to encourage Hong Tao to take over again.
"Do it yourself? Buy it back? I don't want to give it away for nothing! Whoever takes this thing as a treasure again now is a lack of heart! The good time has passed, don't think about the huge profits, double the profits, our buddies don't bother to work that hard, if you have that time to go upstairs and wrestle, okay? Are you cowardly, don't dare to go up and say it early, it's useless to interrupt with other words!" Hong Tao doesn't want to go to any beauty salon anymore, he only bites the freshest piece of meat in any business in China, and he is definitely not greedy, he leaves after biting, and goes straight to the next industry.
Don't say anything about the white heat, even if there is a sign, he will immediately withdraw. Because he has no ability to compete with others at all, he only has those fresh ideas in his head, and nothing else. It doesn't matter if we want to manage without management, if we want to have no means, and if we want relationships, why should we compete with others? But Hong Tao has self-knowledge, can't we withdraw and return if we can't beat you? Can't we find some things to play with ourselves? As long as we think, Hong Tao will change industries every year and will change until the 21 st century. (To be continued......)
