Rewrite the Technological Landscape

Chapter 145 Internet cafe

The next day, Meng Qian asked Sun Xiaojing to contact Wang Shu’s studio. She was expecting a chance to talk to Wang Shu, but Sun Xiaojing told Meng Qian that Wang Shu said that he would not accept corporate projects…

Meng Qian recalled the exhibition at that time. It seems that Wang Shu did take on government projects. “Then look for other design companies.”

For the time being, Meng Qian didn’t want to visit the thatched cottage, because he remembered that his girlfriend once said that Wang Shu was a very arrogant person. How proud was he?

Proud to the school thinks he is too arrogant not to issue him a degree certificate…

However, Meng Qian himself is not disgusted with Reigning Talent and Aowu. Of course, the premise is that he is really talented, so he did not completely give up the cooperation with Wang Shu, planning to find other ways later.

On November 18, 2001, Meng Qian had a second meeting with Party B of the press conference, and finally finalized the plan. Everyone began to busy preparing for the upcoming Dafeng Entertainment press conference on December 10.

At two o’clock in the afternoon on November 18th, in this digitally auspicious day, Meng Qian came to a newly opened Internet cafe in Wulinmen. Among the opening flower baskets at the entrance of the Internet cafe, one was sent by Meng Qian, but considering Dafengke To create the current popularity, the head of the stage was written by his friend Mr. Meng.

“welcome!”

As soon as he entered the door, Meng Qian was taken aback by a girl who suddenly jumped out, and after a while, Meng Qian noticed that the girl in front of him was wearing a short black skirt and a beige close-fitting sweater under the temperature of late autumn. Exquisite makeup on the face is rare in this era.

“It’s all boring.” After seeing Han Mengting’s face clearly, Meng Qian subconsciously vomited.

“Not only is she boring, but she still has some problems in her mind.” At this moment, Jin Miao came over and glanced at Han Mengting with disgust, then turned to Meng Qian, “Come in and take a look.”

“Yeah.” Meng Qian followed Jin Miao and looked at the nearly 1,000-square-meter Internet cafe.

This Internet cafe was opened by Meng Qian and Jin Miao as a joint venture, and then Han Mengting used her three-inch tongue to stubbornly take part in the shares.

With a total investment of 2 million, Meng Qian contributed 1 million, Jin Miao contributed 800,000, and Han Mengting contributed 200,000.

The difference between this Internet cafe and most Internet cafes now lies in the grade and competitive theme.

And this idea was not made by Meng Qian, but by Jin Miao.

Internet cafes have not completely turned into a later-generation arena mode, because the influence of athletics is too small now, and I don’t know how it will lose out when it is made into an arena.

But Jin Miao, who saw the signs of sports development, put forward the idea of ​​taking sports as a theme and at the same time setting up sports areas in Internet cafes.

And Meng Qian’s main suggestion on this Internet cafe is to classify. The year 2001 can be regarded as a bonus period for the Internet cafe industry. The Internet cafe industry has been developing well for a long time, but the players are still students at this time.

Many students may use the money saved from meals to surf the Internet. If the machine is too good, it means the price is too high. On the contrary, many students can’t afford it.

It’s better to engage in a staged game that will be popular in a few years. There are 2 yuan an hour machine, 3 yuan an hour machine, and 5 yuan an hour machine. Players choose according to their own economic situation and the games they need to play. That’s the corresponding price.

However, the overall quality of Internet cafes has been improved. Because of the size, decoration, environment, and service of Internet cafes, these will not be reduced because you are playing a two-yuan machine, which can give users a good experience.

Compared to those small Internet cafes that cost 2 yuan an hour, everyone is more willing to come here to play.

Now Internet cafes are mainly divided into three areas, one is the sports area, where the computer configuration is the best, then the large LCD screen area, and finally the general area.

There are also special five rows of seats in the sports area, but there are no boxes. Now the overall consumption of Huaxia people is there. The three people in the Internet cafes are a little anxious, and they don’t know how to set the price.

However, although there are no boxes, there are still seats for two people, and the seats will charge an extra one yuan per hour.

The other thing is that the service has been upgraded, such as the maid…well, no.

Mainly some detailed services, such as food ordering service. At this time, in the Internet cafes, customers have to go to the front desk to buy or even go out to buy food. Meng Qian has installed an ordering service on the system, and customers can order food on the computer. , And then a waiter will send it over.

It is convenient for customers and also increases the customer’s consumption probability.

From the decoration and layout of the entire Internet cafe to the computer configuration to the detailed services, it can basically be regarded as a very high-end Internet cafe in Hangzhou and even the whole country in this era, but the price of the Internet cafe is not high at all, and the competitiveness is just like that.

Because the three of them are far-sighted people, none of them regard this single Internet fee as the core profit point in the future.

In Jin Miao’s eyes, he believes that the future profitability depends on the chain.

In the eyes of Meng Qian, what he aspires to is to develop an offline cybercafé competition platform to match his online promotion of competition and use this as a profitable flashpoint.

As for Han Mengting, she didn’t come to buy shares on a whim. She saw the development of Internet cafes in Neon Country when she traveled to Neon Country. She thinks Internet cafes can also play value-added services.

This is also the prerequisite for the three people to cooperate. Although they look in different directions, at least they all look to the future, and the three futures are not in conflict.

“After the press conference, we will start the first game.” After visiting Jin Miao for a round, Meng Qian started talking about business.

If you want to run the e-sports theme well, the key is to have upstream game resources. At present, China’s largest upstream game resource is probably Dafeng Kechuang This is the biggest advantage of Meng Qian’s own Internet cafe competition.

“Which game do you play?”

“Make my new game.”

“Hey, boss!” Just as Meng Qian was about to go down and elaborate, the three young men with their hands in their pockets and their clothes outside walked in with an uncomfortable expression, “You internet cafe looks good. ”

The leading man looked like a foolish man.

“Are the three going online?” Jin Miao walked over to greet her with a smile.

“We want to go online, but we don’t know whether the boss welcomes us or not.” The man tilted his head to the side, and he thought he was handsome. He is a very common type of people in this era.

“What’s this? It’s not welcome to open the door to do business.” Jin Miao took out three red envelopes that he had prepared in advance from the drawer. “Opening the red envelopes is a good idea.”

After receiving the red envelope, the leading boy touched the thickness, then opened a hole and took a look, his expression immediately became kind, “Boss, let’s call a few brothers over, and give the boss a good time!”

Seeing the three people leave after they succeeded, Han Mengting said unhappy, “Why are you giving them money?”

“It’s hard to be a kid,” Jin Miao said indifferently. “They don’t have much greed. Instead of doing bad things for us, it’s better to spend a little money to solve the problem.”

“Hey…” Han Mengting actually understands this truth, so she just wants to talk about it when she gets upset.

This is a very common “scenario” of doing business in this era. Many shopkeepers have to manage some people. Although helpless, it is indeed a background of the times. Meng Qian shouldn’t say anything.

But these three people who came today attracted Meng Qian’s attention for some reason.

“You wait for me for a while, I’ll go out.”
