Li Fuzhen came to Spain not only to stop Yang Dongxu to relieve his lovesickness, but also had another purpose, which was to inspect Barcelona's tourism industry.
As the pearl of the Iberian Peninsula, Barcelona's tourism industry and tourism environment can be said to be second to none. Not only does the Mediterranean climate make it very suitable for summer escape.
Next to him is the Mediterranean Sea. There are ancient monuments all over the land and there are endless scenery out to sea. It receives millions of European and American tourists every year.
As Xiao Hutou's reputation in the country grows, he has gradually become the number one player in Asian football. Whether it is in China or the entire Asian market, it can be said that people are paying more and more attention to Barcelona.
Therefore, the development of Barcelona tourist routes is not only to help Chinese tourists open up an overseas tourist route. Whether it is Japan, South Korea, or even the entire Southeast Asia, such a European travel route can be opened.
"Are you planning to open the Xinghai Hotel here?" Yang Dongxu looked at Li Fuzhen in surprise.
In fact, opening up a tourist route does not necessarily require a hotel in Barcelona. Unblocking the relationship with the local tourism bureau and finding cooperation with local hotels can not only save a lot of costs, but also make the entire tourism route smoother.
After all, no matter how powerful you are, you are just an outsider. You can only enjoy various conveniences by cooperating with local snakes. For example, find cooperation with the local Star Hotel in Barcelona.
Not only can it solve the accommodation problem for tourists, but you can also rent yachts at the pier through local hotels, or provide guides for ancient ruins tours, and you can also taste more authentic local food. There are simply too many benefits and conveniences.
If you build a hotel by yourself and receive your own tourists, let's not talk about the time to build the hotel. You only need to recruit employees to solve the tax problem with the local government. As a foreign hotel investor, you occasionally have to resolve conflicts between foreign tourists and local residents, which is very troublesome.
After all, Barcelona's tourism industry is relatively mature, unlike those small countries in Southeast Asia. Investing in building star hotels and developing tourist routes can bring a lot of foreign exchange to these countries. Therefore, the local government will escort you throughout the process.
In this kind of city where tourism development is relatively complete, the local tourism bureau will definitely favor local hotels and enterprises. Not to mention bullying outsiders, but at least it is impossible to favor you.
"It's just a temporary plan, it doesn't necessarily have to be built. In the next few days, I'm going to check out star hotels in Barcelona and two hotels that are convenient for ancient ruins tourism. It's best to have your own yacht and dock on the coast. Visit three companies.
In fact, it is indeed much more convenient to cooperate with local hotels. For example, more advanced travelers can leave it to internationally renowned hotels such as Hilton and Sheraton, which have been operating in Barcelona for some years and have established their own care network.
Moderate or ordinary tourists traveling in a group can cooperate with some small local hotels. Not only is the price affordable, but you can also taste the local customs. However, a part of the profit will definitely come out of the cooperation, and it will not be as profitable as opening a hotel on your own. "
"It is true that the money is less, but the trouble is also much less." Yang Dongxu asked.
"That's true, so we're still weighing how to do it. I'll think about it after the inspection is completed and the people below will write a recommendation report. By the way, are you busy these days?"
"It's nothing big. I'm mainly meeting with Laporta to discuss summer signings and team replenishment. Do you want me to accompany you to inspect the hotel?" Yang Dongxu put all the bacon in his mouth into his mouth.
"Just think of it as traveling with me." Li Fujin nodded.
"Okay, I'll go to the club for a meeting in the morning. You can go to some international star hotels to check it out in the morning.
In fact, there is no need to worry about the accommodation environment and safety issues of star-rated hotels. The main focus of the inspection is whether it can provide tourists with a better travel experience and convenience.
In the afternoon, I will accompany you to take a look at the small hotels and convenient accommodation places near some scenic spots and historical sites, and investigate while traveling. Yang Dongxu said.
"Okay." Li Fuzhen nodded, and then asked, "You are the big boss of the Barcelona team and familiar with the local government, right?"
"You are asking if you are familiar with the police station, right?"
"Yes, after all, there is no need to worry about tourist attractions and other things as Barcelona's tourism industry is so successful. Therefore, the biggest problem after the opening of this tourist route is the personal safety caused by the influx of a large number of Asians into the city. The problem."
"The security in Barcelona is not bad, or in cities with developed tourism, the security is good. Of course, in cities in Europe and the United States, even cities with developed tourism, it is impossible for you to go out and eat barbecue like you do in China at night.
Well, don't check out the Star Hotel for a while. Come with me to the club first, and I will introduce the club president Joan Laporta to you.
It would be better for him to introduce you to the local police chief in Barcelona than for me to do so. Moreover, Barcelona has created a relatively mature fan travel route through the Barcelona club, and you can also cooperate with the team in the future. "
"This would be great. Will the Barcelona team accept Korean youth trainees?" Li Fuzhen couldn't help but ask one more question.
"To be precise, the Barcelona youth training camp recruits talented football teenagers from any country. However, such recruitment must follow formal channels. It is basically impossible to take care of young talents from other countries like I take care of Chinese football teenagers. ." Yang Dongxu shrugged and spoke very directly.
Li Fuzhen just gave him a blank look and did not delve into the matter further.
"When I was inspecting tourism projects in the United States some time ago, I found that international students are very popular in China, or in Asia as a whole. What do you think?"
"Sit and watch." Yang Dongxu spread his hands, "It's just a puddle of muddy water."
Nowadays, students studying abroad are mainly divided into two categories. One is geniuses who pass normal admissions. Most of these international students can get scholarships. They don’t have to spend money to go abroad and their success rate is very high. Another option is naturally for wealthy families to spend money to send their children to study abroad.
Such students account for almost 90% of domestic international students, or even more. As for the success rate... there are some successful students, but most seemingly famous American universities use recruiting foreign students as a revenue-generating project. That's right, it's about generating revenue, not recruiting talent.
"But it is also a big market, and it seems that this market will get bigger and bigger now." Li Fuzhen pretended not to notice Yang Dongxu's naughty answer to the question.
"You want to get involved?"
“We don’t necessarily have to get involved with international students. With so many international students traveling back and forth every year, and parents visiting us, it’s a big business.
You can develop a family-visiting tourism project or something at a time. Anyway, parents who send their children abroad are basically wealthy. When they go to see their children, they do not object to traveling to the United States for a short time, or taking their children studying abroad to travel to other places during the winter and summer vacations.
Moreover, it is also convenient to apply for a collective tourist visa. Parents who want to visit their children do not have to queue up to go to the consulate to apply for a visa, and have to go through various procedures and be interrogated. They are definitely willing to spend money for convenience. "
"This can be done." Yang Dongxu praised Li Fujin's grasp of business opportunities, "But don't get involved in those study abroad projects.
Whether it is donating money to the school to buy a place for your children to enter the school. It is better to just spend money to buy a place, or spend money to buy a diploma. Once it is exposed, it will be a scandal, and there is no need to build on our good reputation. That money is not worth as much as our reputation. "
"It's just a trip to visit relatives and vacation trips for overseas students. I don't want to get involved in other things." Li Fuzhen nodded. She obviously knew that she would not get involved in that mess.
...
Castor has been doing well recently, or very well. Although the money in his hand is not as generous as when he was one of the heirs of the consortium.
But once he was down and out, and now he is so bold that he can just go to nightclubs and lose hundreds of thousands of dollars without even frowning. This kind of life is like going from heaven to earth.
And he feels very free now. No matter how depraved he is, he no longer has to worry about his family's evaluation of him. Little Jack's trust fund for his family.
Even if he burps now, with the things he helped little Jack with, his wife and children can still live a carefree life relying on this trust fund. It can be said that he has no worries and can naturally have fun as he wants. .
In a smoky apartment, little Jack frowned and looked at the mess in the house. Wine bottles, women's underwear, and some indescribable props were everywhere on the floor.
In the bedroom of the apartment, several naked women pressed Casto between them. Little Jack frowned and waved his hand, and the bear-like bodyguards behind him pulled the women away from the bed.
The frightened screams were slapped back by a wad of banknotes slapped on the chest. Not only were these women no longer frightened after their chests were hit, but they even gave provocative looks to the bodyguards.
But the big boss is standing behind him, and these bodyguards obviously won't throw away their jobs because of such a simple provocation. So the woman was thrown out. She randomly picked up some underwear and clothes in the living room that she didn't know if they were her own and put them on before being kicked out of the room.
"You violated my privacy by doing this. Although you helped me pay for the prostitution, I won't thank you." Casto said while rubbing his head, which was still throbbing and aching. He was so high last night. Even if he was awakened from his sleep, he couldn't cheer up at this time.
But this kind of hangover headache, after a bodyguard poured ice water with ice cubes on his head, Casto instantly felt a hundred times more energetic than before.
"You'd better remember your current identity and don't play tricks on me about losing contact." Little Jack looked at Castor with a gloomy expression.
Casto, who was casually wiping the ice water on himself with a sheet, glared at the bodyguard who poured ice water on him, then rummaged around in the bedroom, and finally found his cell phone under the bed.
"I don't know who turned it off. How about you just install a locator on my phone. In this way, if you can't contact me, you can just use the locator to kick in the door."
