Chapter 44 Sky-high Internet Cafe

Xenospace is said to be the largest and most luxurious Internet café near Tenkyo University. When he came downstairs, if it weren't for the four big words on the top of his head, Wang Shuai would never have imagined that this would be an Internet café.

There is no flickering neon box of ordinary Internet cafes, and there is no eye-catching word "Internet café" in the imagination, from the outside, this different space has almost no characteristics of all Internet cafes in Wang Shuai's impression.

The pale yellow walls are neat and clean, and in front of the building is a huge square, with golden signboards reflecting harsh light in the sunlight, and revolving glass doors to give people a more sense of a restaurant.

"Are you sure it's here?" After some observation, Wang Shuai asked.

"Of course." Zhao Hu shrugged, "It's all said, this is the best environment, do you want to go in." "Actually, Zhao Hu wants to see Wang Shuai out of trouble, because this different space is not an ordinary Internet café, surfing the Internet here, it is ridiculously expensive, and it is impossible for ordinary student parties to consume it, he thought that this high price would discourage Wang Shuai, how do you know......

"Then let's go inside."

Wang Shuai took a step and walked inside, but Wang Lei and Zhao Hu had never entered such a high-level place, and they were still a little nervous. And Wang Shuai is different, he can enter and enter the super five-star hotel freely, not to mention this small Internet café.

After passing through the revolving glass door, you will see the hall of the alien dimension. Unlike the machines in the lobby of ordinary Internet cafes, which are lined up side by side, the Internet cafes in this different space are quite scattered, and at first glance, they look like luxurious office buildings, with a lot of personal space between each seat. When it is full, there are only thirty or forty machines in this hall.

Is this an Internet café? Seeing that there were a few people sitting sparsely in the hall, it was not as lively as other Internet cafes at all, and the whole hall was quiet and panicked.

"This ...... Without attendance, what do you make money on? This was the first question that popped up in Wang Shuai's mind.

There are fewer seats, the attendance rate is low, and no matter how good the environment is, what is the use of losing money?

Glancing around the hall, those who were surfing the Internet were dressed very carefully, and it seemed that they were all white-collar people. These people sat in their seats, no one was playing a game, sometimes pensive, sometimes typing quickly, and it looked more like they were working.

"Is this really an Internet café?" In the hearts of Wang Shuai and Wang Lei, this idea rose again.

"Gentlemen, are you here to surf the Internet?" A waitress approached and asked.

"That's right."

"Please follow me."

So, following the man, the three of them came to a side room on the side of the hall, where several computers were working, and several switches and servers were flashing various lights.

"How long are you going to be there?"

Wang Shuai asked, "Huh...... Two hours per person. ”

"What about the private room or the hall?"

"Let's have a private room."

"Okay," a woman next to the computer began to calculate and type on the computer, "It's 400 yuan in total." ”

"How much?!" Wang Shuai almost couldn't believe his ears, and his eyes were wide open with surprise.

"It's 400 yuan in total."

The man handed over a bill, Wang Shuai looked at it, and there was a detailed amount on it, including 50 yuan per person per hour for Internet access, and 50 yuan per hour for each private room, total: 50×3×2+50×2, which is exactly 400 yuan.

Zhao Hu, who looked at the bill and looked at it again, did not have any surprise on his face.

"Sir? Can't get on it yet? ”

"......" Wang Shuai took out his wallet from his pocket and put the money in the other party's hand, but his heart was dripping blood, 50 yuan an hour? It's ten times more expensive than an ordinary Internet café, and it's really a sky-high Internet café...... Now, Wang Shuai finally knows why the attendance here is so low.

At such a price, where is it consumed by ordinary people? 50 yuan an hour, come here to play games, isn't it crazy?

However, because of the small number of people and the high price, it does filter out a large part of the people here. Because of this, the different space with a good environment has become a leisure place for those high-level white-collar workers in the office.

Someone asked, aren't these senior white-collar workers sick when they spend so much money to come here to surf the Internet? Isn't it the same to surf the internet at home? But for these senior white-collar workers, it cannot be looked at with ordinary eyes.

Like those elites and high-ranking people, to a certain extent, they have departed from the pursuit of simple material things, and they are more concerned about spiritual enjoyment. Surfing the Internet at home and not having anyone with you can easily make people feel lonely. And as a senior white-collar worker, he is "at home" when he has nothing to do, and he is shameless to say it.

And here, there are no more people, no less, making a cup of coffee, drinking while surfing the Internet, which can be described as having both fish and bear's paws, for those senior white-collar workers, it is just right.

"Sir, your private room is upstairs, please come with me."

Wang Shuai nodded, and then the three of them went up to the second floor before coming to the elevator.

Looking down from the second floor, you can see the entire hall. Stepping on the carpet in the corridor, there are private rooms that are divided separately, and from the exquisite door alone, the interior layout must be very exquisite.

"Uh...... Miss, you have a good environment here. When he came to the private room, Wang Shuai didn't care about the layout in the room, so he chatted with the hostess.

At the mention of this, the hostess's face was full of pride: "That's, it's not me bragging, our environment here is definitely the best among all the Internet cafes in Tianjing City." ”

"This style and design was specially designed by your boss, right?"

"Someone, please?" The hostess said with some disdain, "To be honest, apart from our boss, who else can have such courage to build such an Internet café." ”

"That's right." Wang Shuai nodded, normal people can't make such an Internet café.

However, Wang Shuai admired it, but sighed: "Hey, but our attendance rate seems to be a little low." ”

"That's right." Speaking of this, the waitress also looked gloomy, "Compared with ordinary Internet cafes, because the cost here is too expensive." ”

After a hasty count, there were more than thirty seats in the hall, but only about ten people were surfing the Internet, and the remaining two-thirds of the seats were empty.

"Hasn't your boss thought of a way?" Wang Shuai said, "For example, reduce the fee?" ”

"It's useless, we've already mentioned it."

"Uh...... I won't bother you. The waitress seemed to notice that she was talking too much, and turned to leave.

Wang Shuai said: "What if I say that we can do a free publicity for you?" ”

"Free publicity?"

"That's right." Wang Shuai said with great certainty, "In this way, more people will know about this place." ”

The waitress didn't know much about promoting this thing, but seeing that there were many things on TV that had to be advertised, she thought that this publicity must be very useful: "Wait a minute, I'll call our boss." ”

As if aware of the stakes, the waitress hurried out of the room.

"Mr. Wang, what is the 'free publicity' you just mentioned?" Wang Lei was puzzled, "Didn't we come here to see the environment?" Mr. Wang, don't blame me for talking too much, the cost of Internet access here is indeed too high, let's change it. ”

"What's the hurry?" Wang Shuai didn't see the slightest fluster, but did it very calmly on the sofa.

Observing the equipment in the private room, the small pantry, a complete set of sofas, air conditioning refrigerators are readily available, and there is a small bed for rest in the corner of the spacious space. ”

If you stay overnight here, you don't have to worry about getting tired and having nowhere to rest.

"Who said they could give us free publicity?" A high-pitched voice came, and he didn't see him, but heard his voice first.

Then there was a sound of footsteps in my ears, and then the waitress who had just left appeared in the field of vision of Wang Shuai and the others with a middle-aged man.

The man was about forty years old, short and conspicuously fat, and stood there looking like a tumbler. With two mustaches on his mouth and a sharp voice, Wang Lei has already put the word "profiteer" on him in his heart.

"It's me."

Seeing the main owner appear, Wang Shuai stood up very movingly, looked at the middle-aged man, and smiled.

"You?" After seeing Wang Shuai and the others, the middle-aged man frowned, "Just you three stinky boys?" Is it planning to distribute leaflets to me to promote it? ”

Wang Shuai said with a smile: "If I say it, I can naturally do it, and it is the kind of propaganda that can be broadcast live." ”

"Live?" The middle-aged man was stunned, looked at Wang Shuai, and asked, "You work at a TV station?" Then he shook his head, "No, advertising on a TV station costs a lot of money, it's free?" Look at you, kid won't have this ability. ”

"I said, of course it's not TV." Wang Shuai clasped his hands on his shoulders and said confidently, "Now, it is the era of online media, and TV propaganda has long been outdated. ”

"The Internet Age?" The middle-aged man said, "You guys are doing online publicity? ”

Wang Shuai shook his head and once again denied the middle-aged man's speculation.

"It's not, that's not, what the hell do you do?" The middle-aged man felt as if he had been tricked, and his tone was mixed with this anger, afraid that if he didn't agree with him, he would throw Wang Shuai and the others out.

Wang Shuai said: "Since you open an Internet café, you naturally often surf the Internet, so it is impossible for you not to know about online live broadcasting, right?" ”

"Webcast? Live ads? ”

"Who watches the simple live broadcast advertisement?" Asking rhetorically, Wang Shuai got to the point, "Actually, the three of us belong to the Tianjing University Game Club, and after a while, there will be a large-scale college game competition." At that time, as long as we add the name of 'Xenospace' as a sponsor on our team uniforms, and when we reach the finals all the way, won't the signboard of Xenospace be well known? ”
