Chapter 56: Take the cost-effective route

On Saturday, Fang Zhicheng took a bus for several hours to arrive in Qiongjin. When he got out of the station, he saw Zhu Youming standing not far away, holding a cigarette in his mouth, and his eyes wandered around. Zhu Youming is short-sighted and doesn't like to wear glasses, so his eyes look deep and blurry, and when he got closer, Zhu Youming stared at it carefully, and then threw the cigarette butt on his mouth on the ground and stepped on it, greeted him with a smile, punched Fang Zhicheng in the chest, and said, "Finally wait for you kid." ”

Fang Zhicheng patted the silver Volkswagen Bora behind him and said with a smile: "It's a good mix, I'm afraid this car will cost 100,000, right?" ”

"Used cars, for transportation." Zhu Youming waved his hand and laughed at himself, "We know each other, so there's no need to be sarcastic." ”

Fang Zhicheng smiled and sat in the co-pilot. Zhu Youming chatted with Fang Zhicheng while driving, although they hadn't seen each other for a long time, they had a lot of topics with each other, mainly around the recent whereabouts of their classmates. The best university in Huainan Province is Qiongjin University, followed by Huainan University. Zhu Youming and Fang Zhicheng are both 2ooo students in the Department of Business Administration of Huainan University Business School.

The car finally stopped in the university town of Qiongjin, after Zhu Youming graduated from university, he started his own business and opened a hotel in the university town, but the business was not very good, so he borrowed money from Fang Zhicheng some time ago. Fang Zhicheng browsed around the hotel and roughly knew the reason for the sluggish business, but he didn't say it directly.

At noon, Zhu Youming ordered a few stir-fried dishes at a small restaurant next door to Fang Zhicheng. Less than half a year after graduating from university, I was not well adapted to the environment around the school. Fang Zhicheng took a pair of chopsticks and salt to fry the meat, and said with a smile: "When I was in school, I liked to eat this thing the most, why don't you feel it after eating it now?" ”

Zhu Youming smiled: "Isn't it because life is comfortable that your mouth has become tricky?" ”

Fang Zhicheng waved his hand, took a sip of beer, smiled slightly, and said, "It's not that the mouth is bad, but the person has changed." ”

Zhu Youming scolded with a smile: "You birdman, what are you doing with such vicissitudes? Could it be that the mechanism is really as terrifying as the legend says, and can make people's adrenaline extremely reduced? ”

"What does it have to do with adrenaline?" Fang Zhicheng rolled up his sleeves and clinked glasses with Zhu Youming, "No matter how old or tender, as long as there is change, it is a good thing, and a spotless life is boring!" ”

Zhu Youming nodded slightly, with a solemn look on his face, and sighed: "But change always has a price." ”

Because of the price, people will adjust their previous worldview and values.

Fang Zhicheng lit a cigarette and said softly: "Let's change the topic, how is the relationship with Meijia?" ”

Zhu Youming shrugged his shoulders and said: "It's not just like that, we meet once a week, she has her own job, and I have my own life." ”

Wang Meijia is Zhu Youming's girlfriend, the two have been talking for almost four years, and their relationship in college is quite stable, but judging from Zhu Youming's attitude, there seems to be a small problem.

Fang Zhicheng shook his finger and asked, "Is something wrong?" ”

Zhu Youming took a piece of boiled meat with chopsticks, put it in his mouth and chewed it, took another sip of beer, and said in a low voice: "We broke up." ”

"Won't it?" Fang Zhicheng's eyebrows were locked, and his face showed surprise, because Zhu Youming and Wang Meijia are a pair that everyone is optimistic about, although the college graduation season is also the season for lovers to break up, but Zhu Youming and Wang Meijia are very good in terms of family and character, so when he heard the news that the two broke up, Fang Zhicheng still couldn't help but sigh.

Zhu Youming also lit a cigarette, took a few puffs, and said with a wry smile: "I have seen through it now, what is more important in this world than money?" So I'm going to make as much money as I can and become a rich man, what kind of woman will I not find when the time comes? ”

Fang Zhicheng shook his head, didn't say anything, changed the topic and chatted with Zhu Youming about his hotel, "Second brother, I have a plan for your hotel, just talk about it, don't care too much." ”

Zhu Youming waved his hand and smiled: "I now regard you as my partner, what is there to build, just mention it!" ”

"Partner?" Fang Zhicheng wondered.

Zhu Youming nodded, his expression was slightly embarrassed, and said: "Most of the 30,000 yuan you gave me has been smashed down, and some of it is used as working capital. Of course, if you are afraid of the risk, the 30,000 yuan will be lent to me, and after a while, I will find a way to pay you back......"

"What's that trouble." Fang Zhicheng smiled and said indifferently: "Think of it as a shareholding, civil servants get dead salaries, if you can climb your big tree, you can make a windfall, it's also good." ”

Zhu Youming said sincerely: "Fourth, I have to say, your money is a charcoal in the snow, if there is no help from you, my early money will be in vain." ”

Fang Zhicheng was puzzled: "Why is it so difficult all of a sudden, according to your character, you have always planned and then moved, and you will never do things that you are not sure of, is there something wrong with it?" ”

Zhu Youming sighed: "It's hard to say. Hades is easy to see, but the little ghost is difficult. The industrial and commercial bureau and the fire brigade often come to look for trouble, and I don't want to deal with it, so I fined a lot of money, and now they often come to the door to find faults......"

Fang Zhicheng said softly: "You are not looking for a relationship? ”

Zhu Youming said helplessly: "What can I do?" For the sake of Meijia's affairs, I fell out with my family, and now I am out of the house. I also suspect that the old man deliberately arranged it to force me to go home and apologize. ”

Fang Zhicheng and Zhu Youming had another drink, and sighed: "You are father and son, what contradiction can't be solved?" ”

Zhu Youming waved his hand weakly and said with a wry smile: "The old man is too stubborn, I wish I could be his puppet for the rest of my life, and I will never bow to him." ”

Zhu Youming's luck is very bad, although Wang Meijia has a good family background, but it is not up to the standard of Zhu Youming's father, so his father is extremely opposed to lovers being together. In order to fight for love, Zhu Youming did not hesitate to fall out with his family, but he didn't expect that Wang Meijia would break up with Zhu Youming now. Thinking about it, you can also know that Zhu Youming's current love is very low.

It's easy to put icing on the cake, but it's hard to send charcoal in the snow, at this moment, if you stretch out your hand to Zhu Youming, you can undoubtedly maintain your relationship the most.

Fang Zhicheng patted Zhu Youming's shoulder and said in a deep voice: "I'll give you a call, maybe I can help you solve this trouble." ”

After speaking, Fang Zhicheng called Zhao Qingya, Zhao Qingya was doing SPA in the beauty room, heard the intention, sat up lazily from the massage table, and said with a smile: "Stinky boy, do you treat your sister as a panacea?" Call me if you have any problems. ”

"Who made me have only one big backer like you?" Fang Zhicheng flattered, "This is my brother's first inheritance, you must help." ”

Zhao Qingya waved her hand, asked the masseuse to stop temporarily, and said softly: "If I help you do this, is there any benefit?" ”

Fang Zhicheng smiled bitterly: "What good can I do?" Otherwise, I'll give me to you directly. ”

"You've been my man for a long time." Zhao Qingya pursed her lips and sneered.

Fang Zhicheng replied shrewdly: "Since it is your person, my business is naturally your business." ”

Zhao Qingya nodded and said with a smile: "If you explain it like this, I have to help you...... I'll give you a call later, and it should be resolved soon. By the way, I want to explain that if you really make a lot of money, don't forget Sister Jì. ”

Fang Zhicheng nodded and promised: "Do I look like that kind of ungrateful person?" ”

"Like!" Zhao Qingya deliberately stimulated.

Fang Zhicheng shrugged his shoulders and smiled bitterly: "Sister, you are hurting me again, sooner or later, one day, I will have to make you pay for your blood debts." ”

"Wait until the wings are stiff, and then let's talk about it." Zhao Qingya imagined Fang Zhicheng's angry appearance, she couldn't help it, and saw that the masseuse next to her was urging with gestures, she said softly, "I have something to do, wait for time, let's talk again, I will help you do what you said." ”

Waiting for Fang Zhicheng to hang up the phone, Zhu Youming's eyes showed a look of wisdom, and he asked in a low voice, "Girlfriend?" ”

Fang Zhicheng waved his hand and denied: "No, sister who has a good relationship." ”

"Yes!" Zhu Youming praised him with a thumbs up: "Sister and brother love is more promising." Honestly, how does a mature woman taste, is it more exciting? ”

Fang Zhicheng scolded with a smile: "It's not as dirty as you imagined." ”

Zhu Youming's face showed disbelief, and he said softly: "What is the relationship between the two of us, is it necessary to be so modest?" When I was in college, there were a total of six guys in our dorm, and they all talked about girlfriends except for you. I've always suspected that there is something wrong with your sexual orientation, and I'm really curious about what kind of person is the woman who can straighten you up! ”

Fang Zhicheng frowned and feigned anger and said: "Don't be cheap with your mouth, otherwise, my brother will really be angry!" ”

Zhu Youming waved his hand and said with a smile: "Okay, let's not talk about this topic for the time being." You just said that you have an opinion about the hotel, you might as well talk about it, what I lack most now is opinion. ”

Fang Zhicheng called just now and helped him settle one thing, which made him happy. Starting a business is a good-sounding thing, but it's actually a very difficult thing, and now that there is one more partner, Zhu Youming's previously low confidence is now starting to burn again.

Fang Zhicheng tapped his fingers on the table and said in a low voice, "I think your hotel's positioning is too high-end. ”

"High-end?" Zhu Youming was incomprehensible.

Fang Zhicheng nodded and said, "The popularity around the hotel is good, but most of the targets are students. Your hotel is decorated in a fresh style, and the internal facilities are also complete, there are computer rooms, and there are business suites, but the purchasing power of students is not high, and it costs half a month to live in a hotel, who can afford it? ”

Zhu Youming nodded and said with a wry smile: "There are a lot of low-rent houses near the university town, and I originally thought about it because I wanted to differentiate the competition. ”

Fang Zhicheng smiled: "The idea is good, but if you want to differentiate the competition, you must have enough time to slowly change the consumption habits of customers." College students are accustomed to living in low-cost housing, and in the short term, it is difficult to accept high-end hotels, and their spending power determines that they cannot afford the price you offer. ”

Zhu Youming's face showed a solemn expression, and he was puzzled: "You mean that you should take the low-end route?" ”

Fang Zhicheng smiled inscrutablely and said softly: "You should take the cost-effective route, and you can enjoy the taste of a five-star hotel with your girlfriend at the price of a private house rental, how about it?" ”

Zhu Youming smiled bitterly: "The advertisement is good, but you can't do a loss-making business, right?" ”

Fang Zhicheng shook his head and smiled: "Of course, you can't lose money, you have to make a plan first, and set the price according to the standard of full houses every day." I just made a preliminary calculation, you have a total of 60 rooms, if the price of a single room is 8o yuan, there is an income of 48ooo yuan per day, after deducting the maintenance cost of 3ooo yuan, you can also have an income of 18ooo yuan, and you can earn 54ooo yuan per month; It is far more reasonable than your current single room price of 18o yuan, less than 15 room occupancy rate, and a loss of 3oo yuan per day. When promoting, special rooms and high-end rooms can be converted at any time, no one knows how many special rooms you launch every day, different customers, set different prices, and take full occupancy as the ultimate goal. ”

Zhu Youming roughly understood what Fang Zhicheng meant, and analyzed: "You mean, my sixty rooms, in fact, are all 8o yuan special rooms, but in fact, the public announcement is limited?" ”

"You can teach." Fang Zhicheng nodded and smiled: "If someone thinks that the special room is not high-grade, the front desk can provide high-end rooms at any time." A special room of 8o yuan can also be converted to 28o yuan to sell! ”

Zhu Youming praised him: "You are too cunning. ”

Fang Zhicheng smiled and said, "No business, no treachery!" ”
