Longquan Villa Hot Spring Resort.
Zhang Laosan's second brother opened a restaurant in the city. After the hot spring courtyard here was put into use, the design of the hot spring courtyard was different from that of Tianranju.
There is a public rest area in the middle of the house. There is a private room on one side, which is also divided into the inside and outside. Inside is a fire table and chairs, where you can eat iron pot stew and order food. If you need accommodation, you can also stay on the inside. On one side are the changing rooms and bathrooms, which are much smaller and cramped.
It seems to be fully functional, but it seems a bit crowded. It feels that in order to refine the functions, most of the concept of comfort has been erased.
But even so, soaking in hot springs is still a very new thing, and customers are flocking here. Tiantianju is certainly the first choice, but if you can't get a reservation, Longquan Villa is also good. In the winter, a sunroom is built on the hot spring pool behind the courtyard, where you can enjoy the moonlight and soak in the hot spring. It is definitely a way to relax and unwind after busy work. It is very suitable for a family trip or a couple.
In the previous Natural Residence, the hot springs were not purely natural and were closed in winter. This year, compared to Longquan Villa, Liu Dalong and Wei Tao were still struggling with whether it should be fully open-air or a sunroom. There was a little difference. .
Wei Tao advocated open air, and the surrounding east view layout should also keep up with it. The surrounding blocks blocking the line of sight should be mainly made of plums and bamboos. Even if they are fake, they should be pleasing to the eye and match the artistic conception of the entire hot spring bath. Think about it, and it should be consistent with the decoration style to form an overall visual enjoyment. There are currently three small courtyards, which are undergoing final decoration and commissioning according to his requirements.
The rest, just like the one at Longquan Villa, had a sunroom built in advance. At this point, there was heat from the hot springs, and it wasn't cold at all. After all, Liu Dalong's thinking mode was still there, accepting and accepting. He still didn't want to be completely defeated by others because of a mistake, so he didn't object to the original hot spring villa plan. But after Longquan Villa came out, he didn't dare to take any more risks. The extra hot spring courtyard should still be safe and secure.
Wei Tao had no objection to this. He even thought it would be fine to give him one. He could keep the small courtyard and decorate it better. He would rather spend more money, but also have the artistic conception. There is a pavilion on half of the hot spring pool to enjoy the snow. There is no pavilion on the half side to admire the moon.
The day after the food problem occurred at Tianranju, something happened at the Longquan Villa hot spring. That night, a young man and woman and a middle-aged couple made a fuss.
They found handheld cameras placed in dark places in the dressing room and room where they entered the courtyard, facing certain areas that should be called absolute privacy.
Hygiene is a problem, but this problem is even bigger.
The crotch is full of yellow mud, just like yesterday. Even if you explain it clearly, as long as word gets out, a certain number of customers will hesitate to come and have no confidence in the safety of bathing in your hot spring.
In fact, people with a discerning eye can see that there is something wrong here, but just like yesterday, we are not afraid of someone seeing it. What we want is those who can't understand, and what we want is the result of spreading rumors and ruining our reputation.
Simple and practical, more lethal, and Liu Dalong arranged for people to spread it everywhere. At the fruit wholesale market, he came into contact with various retail merchants who purchased goods every day, chatted with them, and treated them as a fun thing, and they went back to sell them in the store. When shopping for goods, once I have some free time, I will inevitably chat. Sometimes I chat to find a topic. I don’t need to know whether it is true or false, as long as it is interesting.
Liu Dalong's advantage over Tong Meng and Zhang Laosan lies in this. I have a channel for releasing news on a large scale, while you, at best, are deliberately spreading word of mouth in a small area. The area with the most explosive influence can only be Xinglong Township. I think It would take much longer than it took me to cover the urban area.
A few days later, Tiantianju was inspected by the food hygiene department. Due to the mental preparation and action preparation in advance, the general direction was fine. Some details were just nitpicking. Small-scale rectifications were made, but they still did not meet the standards for closure. After all, you have people, and I have people. You have to come up with something real to convince others before you can take action, otherwise it won’t stand.
A week later, the city conducted a large-scale safety inspection of public places before the Spring Festival. Longquan Villa had hidden dangers within the prescribed scope in terms of fire safety and must be rectified. Before the rectification is completed, it is not allowed to operate and must be closed.
The twelfth and first lunar months were originally the most profitable and had the largest number of customers. Both parties came and went, big ones at the top, and small moves constantly. Eventually, Longquan Villa closed down for rectification before the Spring Festival, and it temporarily stopped.
Injuring the enemy by one thousand and damaging yourself by eight hundred. Everyone can see that the opponent is not without the ability to fight back. Many people have come forward. The villagers are not willing to continue fighting like this. Zhang Qingzhong also senses the opponent's power in the city. He is not weak either. Although the county magistrate is not as good as the current manager, Liu Dalong still has the reputation of being a big taxpayer after all, and he cannot go too far in some things.
The most important thing is that in order to help his third brother, Zhang Qingzhong used some means and was caught and criticized. This has had some negative effects that will affect his progress. This is something he absolutely cannot allow.
Call a halt urgently, and then ask Tong Meng and Zhang Laosan to invite Liu Dalong to dinner.
Wei Tao did not appear in Tiantianju again after the annual meeting. He was at most involved in making plans, and he did not have time to go into battle himself.
As the winter vacation approaches, mobile phone products have also entered the price reduction stage. They are no longer high-end electronic products and have become necessities for ordinary people. The most powerful consumer groups have entered the crazy stage.
For most college students today, it is still difficult to save money to replace a mobile phone with living expenses. Some do not have mobile phones yet and go home during the holidays. They discuss with their parents before and after New Year's Eve. Some families still have New Year's money, so replacing a mobile phone becomes a matter of course. Their top priority is that some even advance New Year's money in advance and borrow money from their parents to buy mobile phones, and then pay back the money when they get the New Year's money.
The same goes for computers. They began to enter thousands of households. On the assembly line on the second floor, Wei Tao was no longer the building contractor. The shop owners couldn't sit still anymore and started to make some small moves. Wei Tao took advantage of the situation and shut down the assembly line. , opened one of the largest shops in that area, selling computers and accessories.
Now I am following the good side and no longer want to be a monopoly. Let’s all rely on our own abilities, right?
No one dared to play with Wei Tao about having something or not. Zhu Feng and Qiao Xinhua went to the store every day during the opening period. It was better not to do some things, and it was better not to do it, but you really can't live without it.
Other channels can also be used to intimidate the crowd, but undoubtedly, this is the simplest, most direct and effective way, and even the lowest cost.
Because Wei Tao has used the channels that he had done business with various manufacturers before, the volume is not as large as before, and the purchase price has increased but is still lower than others. Those who thought it was nothing before now understand and follow Mr. Wei How relaxing! Now it is much more troublesome to contact other merchants, and then go to negotiate with the manufacturer. Over and over again, the price has been lowered. It is also the end of the new year, and the goods will not be shipped until the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. By the fifteenth day, many students have already I returned to school, and even if I didn’t leave, I finished configuring the computer early during the Chinese New Year.
This time, Wei Tao made money again.
He also knew that after the New Year, he would no longer have much advantage in the fields of mobile phones and computers, even for second-hand mobile phones. During the Chinese New Year, he specially had a meal with Zhu Feng and Qiao Xinhua. , and now I feel the pressure.
In terms of mobile phones, big stores are opening up one after another. The names of so-and-so stores and so-and-so communications are no longer important. The gatekeepers have begun to take a high-profile route, giving customers a sense of familiarity and making them feel comfortable with me. When buying a machine, you will have the idea that you will not have any worries.
As for manufacturers, who can make money? Even if Wei Tao controls someone like Xu Liang, who is the director of the office, he still can't resist the crazy money-spending of these new businesses after they come in. Wei Tao and Guan will also lose money. Chunliang has never been too greedy. When he was the market leader, he only negotiated with three general contracting agents for mobile phone brands, and did not expand after that.
Now I can hold on. Those bosses who entered this industry with money don’t want to be the first. Many of them know Guan Chunliang and have been in contact with him in other places. Now they are here. Bye bye to the dock. Eating a meal can also be regarded as a courtesy first and then a soldier.
In business, there is never a reason why only your family can do it and my family cannot do it. We are here, and we have come with funds. Although the market is not an infinite cake, your two families are not qualified to eat them all. I will step on you. The inner bottom line is that if we don’t cross the line, we will be fine with each other.
So in this way, Wei Tao has a monopoly on the replacement business. Years and years ago, people from various manufacturers have also come to talk to him. Wei Tao also knows that he must let go. Even if he doesn't let go, there is no point. Whoever doesn't exchange it will be given to the other person. If it is really hidden, outsiders won't know. It's just that the highest bidder gets it, or everyone gets the same treatment, and whoever takes the money will be exchanged for the other.
Thinking about it again, it was just like when Wang He led people to pull the iron gate of Bird's after-sales service, it was useless. Zhu Feng and Qiao Xinhua were a little bit unable to bear it.
It's not that the two of them lost the courage to fight, it's because the outside world knows that they are both powerful, so they dare to come to the second-hand mobile phone market to taste some meat and fish, which is also powerful. There are a lot of gangsters out there, not to mention big brothers, but there are definitely a lot of ruthless people. Why do you control the second-hand mobile phone market? Do you have any objection to me coming to eat a piece of meat?
I have no money, so I’m barefoot.
When you make money, you wear shoes.
My strength is no worse than yours, and I am not afraid of ruthless people doing ruthless things. Do you think it is necessary to fight with me?
Wei Tao gave the two of them a step up, invited them to drink, and advised them not to be all indifferent. Now they have a huge advantage. As long as no one takes the initiative to attack you, you must maintain the market and personnel yourself. Even if someone comes in, they will definitely not be able to rob you. Still You make a lot of money.
If there is no big money to be made in this industry, powerful people will definitely not get involved, so that a virtuous cycle can be formed.
"You have also seen that this is no longer the era of fighting to the death. Look at Tiantianju and Longquan Villa. Those who play Maotai and never take action on the edge of the rules are more lethal."
The reason is very simple. Once explained, everything will be clear.
If there is a 50 million profit cake market in this market, and Wei Tao and Guan Chunliang have a monopoly, then people with the same or higher strength outside will not be able to find a good business. With such a good piece of cake, let These two people ate it, how could that be okay?
I'll come too. If you don't let me, then I'll fight to the death and steal business.
Fifty million, others shared more than 10 million and 20 million. It seems that Wei Tao and his wife made less, but the one who came to share a piece of the pie is definitely not one family. Several people shared the 20 million, and one family had several million. .
It is also profitable, and it is a good business, but it will not tempt those stronger people. Oh, it turns out that this business is worth several million a year. I don’t have the energy to do this. I have several thousand a year here. Wan's business is still focused here, and he won't hesitate to fight with those gangsters, but he won't do anything wrong.
Holding the big position, you have the advantage of strength, the advantage of entering the market first, the advantage of knowing more about the industry rules than you, and the advantage of having already laid the foundation. It is not difficult, it just depends on how much you are willing to give up.
It's not that Wei Tao is afraid of fighting to the death, it's that he knows that the future prospects of the mobile phone industry are average.
Mobile phones are beautiful, and they are a must-have item for people as they are replaced by new generations. Only those who can see this step are willing to invest heavily or spend all their money to attack the mobile phone market and try to grab a piece of territory. Including the current five counties outside the country, it doesn't matter if you don't sell new phones when they open. I will collect second-hand mobile phones, I will do non-after-sales three-guarantee repairs, I will provide you with a battery charger, and I will sell you some accessories.
As for the entire industry, the development prospects of mobile phones, which are the core of the industry, are invincible, so there must be something to eat from the supporting equipment.
As someone who has experienced it, after online shopping becomes the dominant model in the future, it seems that some middle-aged and elderly people who are not adaptable to the consumer group will still choose to buy phones offline, but the overall consumption power will be more than one level behind.
Young people like to buy expensive and good ones. Later, in the era of smartphones, as soon as the rotten Apple came out, new generations were replaced. It had nothing to do with whether the mobile phone was good or not. I used it for a year or two at most, and it was normal for me to buy a new phone. The speed of electronic product replacement.
For middle-aged and elderly people, the standard for replacing mobile phones has always been broken and unusable. As a result, even if this group accounts for half of the population, their consumption power is several times lower than that of young people. What’s even more frightening is that as young people change at a faster pace, parents buy mobile phones less frequently and don’t need to buy them. The prodigal children buy new phones after using their mobile phones for less than two years. , isn’t this a waste? The ones he doesn't use are better than the ones I use, so I won't buy new ones and just use the kids' ones.
Because of the advent of the Internet age, Wei Tao knows that although 20506 is still good, this is not an industry where long-term monopoly can create huge benefits. Moreover, there is no monopoly in physical transactions. Just copy and paste can do it. It should be satisfying to interrupt your monopoly and get the most benefits first at a certain period of time.
On the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, DXN conducted a comprehensive inventory.
To give Wei Tao a number, from around Christmas to now, in less than two months, the Dexin mobile phone hypermarket, accessories store, computer shop and second-hand mobile phone business have brought him a total of 3 million yuan. Net income. If you include employee wages, bonuses, New Year's benefits and some New Year's gift expenses, the figure is even bigger. An income of tens of thousands of yuan a day sounds scary and incredible, but it is a real reality. Other than that, the income from accessories stores is still the biggest surprise, overwhelming the sales income of new mobile phones.
We have the most adequate preparations, we have the most famous brand effect, and we have market competitors who have not yet formed a head start.
Most of the money was earned years ago, and the business started on the fourth day of the new year. Although there were still activities, the business was no longer what it used to be.
During the Chinese New Year, Wei Tao got the exact news. This group of merchants almost went directly to the manufacturer's headquarters. In terms of inventory allocation and purchase priority after the new year, DXN has an advantage, but it is no longer the dominant two companies in the past.
