Chapter 53: Red Alert Monster (Ask for Collection and Recommendation Votes)
Chinese New Year's Eve is coming, Yanjing is full of festive taste, the shops in the city have basically ceased business, and the lively places are some local temple fairs.
Li Feiteng's computer bar began to close after the 23rd day of the lunar month, but before closing, all the shops had already pasted a uniform red couplet, and the store manager also had to buy firecrackers to celebrate in front of the store in the New Year.
When he got up on the morning of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, his mother began to make dumplings at home, and after Li Feiteng and Gao Yuanyuan made porridge on the phone for a while, he leisurely made dumplings with his mother.
After eating dumplings at noon, Li Feiteng and his mother watched a TV series at home for an afternoon, and in the evening, Gao Yuanyuan came back and called him to come over and set off New Year's fireworks together.
That night, the sky near Gao Yuanyuan's house was constantly lit with bright fireworks, and under the cold wind, Li Feiteng and Gao Yuanyuan hugged and kissed each other, and in this New Year's year, they both fell in love.
As soon as the third day of the Lunar New Year passed, Li Feiteng and Gao Yuanyuan flew directly to the warm southern Beihai, because Gao Yuanyuan had not seen the sea yet, and she wanted to go to see the sea with Li Feiteng.
Beihai is one of the most beautiful coastal cities in China, and most importantly, the weather is warm, warm in winter and cool in summer.
In the warm subtropical climate, the noon of the day is like a summer day, Li Feiteng changed into a shirt and shorts, and Gao Yuanyuan put on a beautiful long skirt, the two did not have the barrier of thick down jackets, as if they were closer to each other.
When he came to the beach, Gao Yuanyuan was as excited as a lark, leaving his shoes on the beach with open arms, and running barefoot on the beach.
Rushing...... Lala...... Rushing
The waves are also the sound of joy, and the slight cool breeze blows Gao Yuanyuan's long hair, and her back looks so beautiful.
Li Feiteng likes girls with long hair, so Gao Yuanyuan has kept his long hair since that time.
He walked behind Gao Yuanyuan with the girl's shoes unhurriedly, feeling the greatness of the sea and listening to the sound of the waves, and his mood was naturally extremely happy.
After seeing the sea, Li Feiteng and Gao Yuanyuan have the next stop, which is the sad place of Suzhou and Hangzhou in his previous life.
Suzhou and Hangzhou tour the West Lake, and listen to the good story of the broken bridge.
Day after day of play, Valentine's Day and Lantern Festival have passed in a good time.
Gao Yuanyuan turned the old Li Feiteng into full of vitality and gave him infinite confidence in the future, because he Li Feiteng is unique in this world, and he also has a unique Gao Yuanyuan girlfriend.
The happy travel time passed in a flash, and in a blink of an eye, it was already the Lei Feng Festival on March 5th, and the couple who had played a little crazy finally returned to Yanjing, and the cold winter of Yanjing had receded a little.
After Li Feiteng came back, he was called to the company by Ying Tiancheng for a meeting, because during the period of his travel, Yanjing's computer bar market has undergone heavy changes, and the hourly price of the computer bar industry has been hit hard again, and the profit margin has been greatly reduced.
One of the two computer bars is called "Wanda Computer Cafe" and the other is "Unisplendour Computer Cafe".
In the company's conference room, Li Feiteng, who had just returned from traveling, sat on the boss's chair in the middle of the table a little absentmindedly, Li Feiteng listened to Ying Tiancheng, Sun Zhengguo, and his cousin and others' extremely angry discussions, his brows curled again, and a smile of indifference appeared on his face.
Ying Tiancheng looked back and saw Li Feiteng's smile, and he asked helplessly, "Boss, do you have any solution?"
Ying Tiancheng has a headache, after Wanda and Ziguang began to seize the market at a low price, now other small computer bars in Yanjing have also helplessly reduced their prices to resist, they originally drank a sip of the remaining soup under Feiteng, and now the appearance of Wanda and Ziguang makes them can only pounce bravely to compete for a piece of fat.
In short, the current situation of Feiteng's computer bar is very dangerous, and if it is not handled well, it will face heavy damage.
Li Feiteng was also silent, although he had predicted such changes in this market for a long time, he just didn't expect that the price would be reduced so soon.
Last year, the price was stable at 15 yuan an hour, and the popular Saturdays and Sundays were 20 yuan, but this year it has suddenly become 10 yuan.
Li Feiteng can't accept the price of 10 yuan, because the cost of the decoration and shop pù of the computer bar he invested in is extremely high, and the Feiteng Internet café company is doing a long-term business, and it is definitely not like other computer bars that are destined to embark on the road of destruction in the future, their group of big and small bosses are short-sighted and want to salvage a whole body and retreat, but Li Feiteng can't do it, he wants to lay the foundation for the development of China's Internet.
"What a bastard!" Li Feiteng couldn't help but scold. Suddenly, the office was silent, and they all looked at Li Feiteng, because Li Feiteng is the largest chairman, and he decides the future of the company.
Li Feiteng took out a cigarette and smoked it, he knocked on the table, and said calmly: "Give me two days to take a look, I really can't think of a way to do it then, so I can only reduce the price." ”
After speaking, Li Feiteng announced the dismissal of the meeting, he was in a bad mood, so he wanted to go around casually to calm down his mood and think calmly about countermeasures.
Driving around the streets, Li Feiteng began to constantly think about the development of the company in the past year and a half, he wanted to reflect on where the company had problems, or whether there were some dangerous loopholes hidden?
After thinking about it, Li Feiteng didn't find any problems, he passed by Beihang and came to the No. 1 computer bar that had been in business for a year.
Walking into the door, the familiar decoration structure, a strange girl standing at the cash register counter, two male network managers in neat yellow uniforms are inspecting the venue, but Li Feiteng looked at it, the once full computer bar has appeared a rhythm that will never return, it is now noon, he saw groups of students when he passed by the school just now, and at this time there were no customers in the computer bar......
"Business is really a bit difficult to do!" Li Feiteng sighed, he walked to the cash register, glanced at the girl and asked, "How much was the turnover yesterday?"
The girl raised her head, she opened her mouth in surprise, recognized it as the company's chairman Li Feiteng, and hurriedly replied in a trembling surprise voice: "Chairman, yesterday's turnover was 9,800 yuan." ”
"Hey!" Li Feiteng felt uncomfortable when he heard it, it seemed that it was Sunday yesterday, and last year, the best computer bar on Sunday created the highest single-day turnover of 42,000 yuan, and now his more than 30 computer bars are probably below 10,000 yuan.
The girl could see that Li Feiteng was in a bad mood, and she also understood the reason. The girl thought for a while, and finally boldly said her thoughts: "Chairman, I think that in addition to the low prices of Wanda and Ziguang, the main reason for their booming business is that they are loaded with foreign games that boys like to play, such as RedAlert, Warcraft III, and AgeofEmpires. ”
Li Feiteng's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this girl's words, he gave the girl a thumbs up and asked, "What's your name, I'm going to give you a raise!"
"Chairman, my name is Wu Yunyu, but you don't have to give me a raise, I'm just part-time, and I'm still a student of Beihang University. Wu Yunyu explained with a smile.
Li Feiteng waved his hand, and he smiled gratefully: "No matter what kind of part-time student you are, your ideas have made a great contribution to me and the company, and you will wait for the headquarters to give you a reward...... If you have the opportunity to work in Feiteng Group in the future!"
Bidding farewell to the little sister of the No. 1 computer bar, Li Feiteng couldn't wait to rush to the nearby Wanda computer bar in order to confirm the girl's idea.
There are more than 500 computer bars on the third floor of this Wanda computer bar, and after Li Feiteng entered, there was a smoky blue world in front of him, and boys smoking cigarettes sat in front of the computer to play the latest foreign competitive games such as Red Alert, Warcraft, and Empire.
The business of Wanda computer bar is extremely hot, Li Feiteng is really envious after seeing it, but after he calmly thought about it, the computer bar here has not built a local area network, which means that this group of people are still playing stand-alone, and the computer people are big.
Another point is that Li Feiteng found that the computer configuration and system of Wanda Computer Bar are very average, although he barely ran Red Alert and Warcraft, but it still didn't play smoothly.
"Why hasn't our computer bar been equipped with the latest foreign games?" Li Feiteng returned to the company, and he immediately questioned Sun Zhengguo and Gu Jun, who were in charge of updating the computer bar games.
In the early days of the company's establishment, Li Feiteng constantly emphasized the problem of updating computer bar games, and he always thought that Sun Zhengguo and Gu Jun could handle this simple problem, but they did not keep up with the times in this regard.
Sun Zhengguo explained with an embarrassed face: "Our computer bar has been updating the game, but we are mainly pushing the games such as Fairy Sword and Monopoly produced by Daewoo Company, and now we have to add the games you mentioned, and the configuration of the machine is not enough!"
"Yes, we've also tried to install foreign games, but it's not smooth to play, and it's not very fun, far less than the fairy sword players, and if we uninstall the fairy sword, I'm afraid it will cause many players to be dissatisfied. Gu Jun also explained.
Li Feiteng really smiled bitterly when he heard their explanations, he waved his hand and said: "What you say has a certain truth, but you would never have thought that these two foreign games are the main factors for Wanda and Ziguang to make money, it can be said that if our computer bar can play these two games smoothly, our price can be increased back to 20 yuan an hour!"
"No!" Sun Zhengguo and Gu Jun stared at each other in surprise, they really couldn't figure out how two foreign games could have such a big job.
Li Feiteng smiled and didn't explain, the total number of players in the world of Red Alert and Warcraft is immeasurable, so to speak, in this era, if a player has not played these two games, then he is not worthy of being called a player.
"Call Ying Tiancheng over for a meeting, I want to make the next important decision for the company!" Li Feiteng has made up his mind, since he has found the problem, there is no difficulty.
The company's senior management quickly gathered again, Li Feiteng was no longer a lazy expression, he sat on the boss's chair and said seriously: "The company has been developing for a year, have you ever thought about what is the core of the computer bar's profit?"
I tell you that the core of a computer bar's profitability lies in the customer experience. What is customer experience, in layman's terms, is whether students can play the most fun games in our computer bar!RedAlert, Warcraft III, AgeofEmpires three games, I translate them are Red Alert, Warcraft and Age of Empires. ”
Li Feiteng wants to reform, he announced that he will start tomorrow to upgrade and install the red alert, and will build all computer bars in Yanjing on the LAN within a month.
Red Alert and Warcraft are all games that are more fun to fight online, and Li Feiteng doesn't need to connect to the Internet, he just needs to build a local area network.
