The matter of the new Internet cafe was settled, and Li Rushan immediately made the decision to start it!
The little fat man was simply complacent: "Okay, we can sign the contract immediately with Dalu. This time my plan is the same as last time. If I want to do it, let's do it big!"
"I plan to change all the five parkour and rock climbing gyms in Jinghai, Didu, Modu, Yangcheng, and Jingzhou into this new Internet cafe model. Mr. Dalu, please contact Boss Deng Yufeng later to discuss this matter. Let’s do it together!
"In short, the five Internet cafes strive to complete the renovation as soon as possible. During the renovation period, they directly announced the closure of business for rectification. All the original cards and courses have been postponed according to the schedule. As an apology, all users will be given an extra six months of free time!"
When Lu Mingyuan heard this, he was instantly shocked: "Huh? Mr. Li, think twice! There is absolutely no need for us to do this!"
"Wouldn't it be better to pool the money from the five stores and choose another location to open a new store?"
After all, Yufeng Parkour Climbing Gym is developing very well now, and its monthly profits are very healthy. Isn’t this a cash cow?
These five stores will not be moved, and then the money earned will be used to support a new store. Even if the new store loses money, it will not lose too much.
This should be the thinking of a normal person, right?
But Li Rushan shook his head. He completely agreed with Lu Mingyuan's idea, but precisely because he agreed, he definitely couldn't do this!
Yes, if you use the money earned by these five companies to open a new venue, it will indeed be okay even if you lose money. But the question is, isn't it like Li Rushan's hard work was in vain?
Now that these five restaurants are being renovated together, not only can they be forced to stop operations and interrupt users' usage habits, but they can also pay a large sum of money as compensation.
Moreover, after the renovation of the five venues, the money-making model will be completely broken, and these five money trees will be uprooted!
Is there anything happier than this in the world?
When the time comes, the game and movie "Doppu Martial Arts" will both hit the market, and the parkour and rock climbing gym will also become less popular due to its merger with Internet cafes... Thinking about such a scene, Li Rushan couldn't help but want to laugh out loud.
"You don't need to say anything more, Mr. Dalu, I understand what you mean, but we who are doing big things can't stick to these small details!
"Anyway, just do what I say on this matter. Anyway, ours is an independent project. Whether you make a loss or make a profit, it won't affect your original Internet cafe operation. What do you have to worry about?"
Lu Mingyuan thought to himself, I'm not worried about myself, I just see how smart you are and can't help but want to remind you...
But since Li Rushan said so, there is nothing to worry about. Lu Mingyuan nodded: "Okay, I will discuss it with Boss Deng later and handle this matter immediately."
…
On the way back, Li Rushan, Lu Mingyuan and Lu Zhixing were sitting in the business car, chatting and talking about the wonderful scene of this new Internet cafe.
“Boss, Mr. Lu, what do you think this epoch-making new internet cafe should be called?
"Before, there were Yufeng Parkour Climbing Hall and Xinglu Internet Cafe. Otherwise, we would just use a word each and call them Xingyu Internet Cafe? Yulu Internet Cafe? Luyu Internet Cafe? Lufeng Internet Cafe? Xingfeng Internet cafe? Fenglu Internet cafe?"
Lu Zhixing was speechless for a moment: "Mr. Li, why don't you just play with permutations?"
Li Rushan was very happy: "I can do this. By permutation and combination, there are a total of eight possible names!"
Everyone raised their eyebrows one after another.
But it was obvious that Li Rushan was very happy. He looked at Qin Shang who was driving in front of him: "Assistant Qin, how much loss do you think we will have to incur if we renovate these five halls?"
Qin Shang thought for a while: "According to the current plan, each venue must prepare an additional rest area, including many high-end single sofas, massage chairs, and the latest VR game helmets. At the same time, special restaurants and chefs must be prepared. , bartender, plus the various linkage benefits we have prepared, the various expenses for decoration, and the direct and indirect losses caused by the closure of business during this period, plus various compensations to users...
"Perhaps after calculation, it is conservatively estimated at 15 million. Depending on the specific situation, it may be higher."
After all, VR game helmets, high-end single sofas, massage chairs, etc. are all the big ones here. The unit prices of these items are very high, and they need to be purchased in large quantities to equip all five venues. Each venue must at least have enough capacity. Is there a seating area for dozens of people?
It is called an Internet cafe, but a general PC Internet cafe needs 50-150 computers to be considered a small one, and a large-scale Internet cafe needs about 500-1500 computers.
Although the VR Internet cafe uses VR equipment and covers a larger area, if it does not have dozens of equipment, it would be a bit too shabby.
In this way, there are nearly 100 VR headsets. The low-end second-hand ones cost several thousand yuan, and the brand-new ones with better configurations are more than 10,000 yuan. Plus single sofas and massage chairs, just these The equipment costs two million.
Multiply that by five, and that’s 10 million.
What's more, other miscellaneous expenses have to be taken into account, so Qin Shang's estimate of about 15 million is relatively accurate.
But Li Rushan was very happy: "Okay, okay! More than ten million, this money is well spent!"
Lu Mingyuan couldn't help but hold his forehead. This Mr. Li really redefined "well spent".
Li Rushan continued to ask: "Then the more than 10 million will continue to be used as part of the previous funds? In this way, how much of the more than 40 million will I have left?"
Li Rushan had mentioned to Lu Zhixing before that he had a total of 500 million. When Lu Zhixing gave him advice before, he had 450 million left.
Li Rushan is used to breaking down goals, that is, dividing 500 million into five times to spend. Spending 100 million each time is a key node, so he habitually only counts a fraction.
It seems that he has made good progress recently. In just a few days, he has reduced this amount to less than 50 million.
Qin Shang probably did some mental calculations and replied: "I guess there are still more than 60 million left to spend."
Li Rushan was stunned: "Ah? What did you say?"
Qin Shang: "I said there are more than 60 million left."
Li Rushan almost spit out a mouthful of old blood: "What do you mean, why are you spending more and more money! Are you sure you have 60 million left?"
Qin Shang nodded: "Yes, Mr. Li, a sum of money has just been credited to the account, and the balance now is about more than 67 million."
Li Rushan collapsed instantly: "Where did you get so much money? The money earned from the game has almost reached its limit, and it is impossible for the parkour climbing gym to receive such a large sum of money all at once!"
Qin Shang was silent for a moment: "This... is the money sent by Yang Changqing and Tu Le."
Li Rushan was stunned: "Why are they giving me money?"
Qin Shang explained: "Mr. Li, have you forgotten? They also invested in Yufeng Parkour Climbing Gym before, and now they have opened it in many first- and second-tier cities, and the results are very good.
"This money can be regarded as the franchise fee. Each person contributes one to two million, and that's all."
Li Rushan was speechless: "What the hell franchise fee? I never asked them for this money!"
Qin Shang nodded: "You didn't ask for it, but they were embarrassed not to give it to you."
Li Rushan opened his mouth and was speechless for a moment.
how so!
At the previous dinner party in Jingzhou, Yang Changqing and Tu Le complained that Li Rushan was eating alone. Why didn't he share such a good project with his brothers?
Li Rushan had no choice but to give them Deng Yufeng's contact information.
At that time, Li Rushan didn't think so much. He just thought, you can talk to Deng Yufeng yourself, invest as much as you want, and open as many branches as you want.
If Deng Yufeng was allowed to operate it by himself, he would definitely open a branch after making money. Wouldn't he still continue to make money? But if other investors come in and open a branch, they will definitely take the money themselves.
It’s quite cost-effective to just earn the money from these five stores.
I just didn’t expect these investors to be so sensible, or rather, so unscrupulous!
Obviously from the perspective of Yang Changqing and others, this matter is easy to explain. After they contacted Deng Yufeng and opened a branch, they soon discovered that it is quite easy to make money in this parkour and rock climbing gym?
After the Yufeng Parkour Climbing Gym became popular, many cities already had this business opportunity. Without the constraints of Li Rushan, Deng Yufeng and the investors made careful planning in site selection, so most of the first-tier cities Parkour and climbing gyms are all about making money.
So here comes the problem.
Good brother Li Rushan has so generously given us all such precious money-making opportunities, so is it a bit unreasonable for us... not to express our gratitude?
