It is said that young people aged 17, 18, 19 or 19 are physically strong, and they are all those who do seven times a night.
But Cao Zhiqiang proved with facts that this was all false.
You know, Cao Zhiqiang was only nineteen years old at this time, which was when he was young and strong.
In addition, he has been well-nourished and pampered recently, so it is said that this is the peak period of his physical fitness in his life.
Nice romance
However, the fact is that Cao Zhiqiang and Jin Xiuying died after fighting for three consecutive rounds.
By the fourth round, he was already seeing stars and his whole body was sore. He had to forcefully withdraw his troops in the middle of the battle, but he failed to achieve full success.
Because by the time of the fourth battle, there was really not a drop left!
There is a serious shortage of ammunition, so it is naturally impossible to continue the fight.
It's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice.
On the contrary, Jin Xiuying, although it was her first time and lacked experience, became more courageous with each battle.
During the fourth battle, if Cao Zhiqiang had not surrendered voluntarily, Jin Xiuying might have been able to continue fighting.
It can be seen that in terms of physical strength, Kim Soo-young, who practices sports, is stronger.
After the truce, Cao Zhiqiang rested on the sofa for a full hour before he recovered.
After that, fearing that Jin Xiuying would know the taste of the marrow and continue to fight, he shied away from the fact that he had other things to attend to and ran away in a hurry.
After escaping, Cao Zhiqiang did not go back to any place because he was afraid of being discovered. Instead, he went directly to the Peking Hotel to get a room and have a good rest.
The next day, Cao Zhiqiang still felt pain in his waist and back after getting up, so he continued to sit in the Peking Hotel and write lyrics.
It was not until the afternoon that Cao Zhiqiang felt that his body was almost recovered, and he finally went out to show his face instead of hiding in the hotel room and controlling the phone.
First, he went to the nearby "Shiweitian" restaurant.
It was not lunch time when Cao Zhiqiang went there, and there was only one day off for Labor Day during this period. May 2nd was a normal working day, but the hotel was still overcrowded.
After asking Cao Jiajia, I found out that many people who come here are idlers from the capital, and most of them are repeat customers.
The reason, besides He Yuzhu's good cooking skills, the most important reason is that there is air conditioning here.
You know, at this time in May, the weather was already quite hot, and many people wore half-length sleeves and waved cattail fans.
As for air conditioning, it is a scarce product throughout the capital. Generally, it is only available in big hotels. Ordinary restaurants do not have air conditioning at all.
But Cao Zhiqiang originally installed air conditioning in the restaurant, so after the guests came here and felt the coolness of the air conditioning, they immediately fell in love with it and even used it as a leisure place, where they came to chat when they had nothing to do.
Of course, these people who come to the restaurant to enjoy the coolness and chatting do not order anything. They often avoid the meal. When they come, they order a few side dishes, then bring their own wine, and eat the side dishes while drinking. All kinds of idle chatter.
Because everyone had indeed ordered the food, and the meal was not occupying a seat, and the large number of people could still make it seem popular, so Cao Jiajia did not chase people away.
"It's right not to drive people away." Cao Zhiqiang nodded and said, "When a new restaurant opens, the key is popularity and reputation.
With Uncle He here, of course the taste of the food is no problem, but other than that, it’s the dining environment and service quality.
Of course, the dining environment is excellent. In addition to the decoration, the air conditioner is also a great tool. Now there are only a few restaurants in Peiping that can install air conditioning.
In this case, we must pay attention to the quality of service and not offend the guests casually.
Of course, you can't spoil them all the time, otherwise, it won't be a problem for them to sit around for a whole day with a side dish and a pot of tea. "
"How about we learn from the Western restaurants in big hotels and set a minimum consumption?" Cao Jiajia said, "When it's meal time, each table has a minimum consumption. If it doesn't meet the standard, it won't be served?"
Cao Zhiqiang shook his head: "Private rooms are okay, but dine-in is not. Because if you do this in dine-in, everyone will feel very uncomfortable and think you look down on others."
"Why is this looking down on people?" Cao Jiajia said, "Besides, isn't the same thing true for restaurants in big hotels?"
"A big hotel is a big hotel, but we are just a restaurant. It's different." Cao Zhiqiang shook his head.
"Then what do you think we should do?" Cao Jiajia said.
"Simple." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "Can't we just open later?"
"Opening later?" Cao Jiajia was stunned.
"Yes." Cao Zhiqiang smiled.
"Why do you think you are so diligent and open the business so early in the morning?
Let me tell you, breakfast is tiring and unprofitable, so just don’t make breakfast.
From now on we will only cook lunch and dinner.
That is to say, at nine o'clock, the waiters start to go to work and make various preparations, such as cleaning the room, preparing ingredients, etc.
It officially opens for business at 11:30 am and stays open until it closes at 2 pm.
After that, it’s time for everyone to settle accounts, clean up, and have a rest. It’s time to open again at 5:30 in the evening and make dinner again.
The dinner time can be longer and last until nine o'clock in the evening. In summer, it can be appropriately extended to ten o'clock in the evening.
In addition, replace the original cheap side dishes and tea with more expensive side dishes and tea.
For example, a pot of tea now costs 30 cents, so a pot of tea costs one yuan. Of course, the tea leaves will also be exchanged for better ones.
The cheapest side dishes used to be, a plate of pickled cucumbers was 10 cents a plate, but if you change it to something else, it would be at least 50 cents a plate.
And it must be stipulated that drinks, tea, side dishes and rice are not only sold. To order these, you must order a main dish.
That is to say, if you just want a pot of tea and a plate of pickles to enjoy the air conditioning, then you should at least order a main dish.
I will also increase the price of the main dishes. After analyzing the specific situation, I will increase the price by at least 50%!
Of course, I almost replaced all the dishes and bowls with higher-standard ones, which looked high-end. I had to make them feel that eating here was worth their money.
In short, Shiweitian is positioned as a high-end restaurant with special features, not a roadside fly shop, nor something that ordinary people can afford.
We do not impose a minimum consumption, but through clear price tags and high-end services, people who come here to eat will understand that when eating here, ordering a dish for a meal will cost at least five yuan!
If you think you can afford the five yuan, then come and eat.
If you think it’s too expensive and not cost-effective, you won’t come.
I said this, do you understand, sister? "
Cao Jiajia blinked: "Isn't this not good? Many people have come to eat. Will there be any problems if the price is changed rashly?"
"What's the problem?" Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly.
“If anyone asks, just tell them that the previous price was the trial price, which was a big discount for Labor Day.
The big offer was only for three days, and after three days it was changed back to the original price.
In other words, we will hang up the price change sign tomorrow to let everyone know that we only have a big discount for the first three days of opening, and will change it back to the original price the day after tomorrow.
Sister, you have to understand that as long as the ingredients are high-end, the chef is skilled, and the food is delicious and delicious, there will definitely be repeat customers!
People who can come here to eat high-end food don't care about the price at all.
Those who care about price don't care about your cooking skills or what kind of cuisine you are, they just want to get the best deal.
So, by raising prices, improving the quality of tableware, and improving service attitude, we are raising the value here in disguise.
By the way, as for the waitresses, I asked them to put on uniform makeup, put on a uniform red high-slit cheongsam, and wear high heels.
The titles should also be changed. When you meet a man, call him sir, when you meet a woman, call her ma'am. Don't call me gay master.
By the way, recruit two more young, fair and beautiful women with a height of 1.7 meters.
There is no need to do anything else to recruit these two women. They just wear cheongsam and stand at the door when the business opens. Everyone who comes will bow and smile together and shout welcome!
This is called a welcome girl!
With the welcome girl, you can naturally scare away a large number of idle people.
If someone comes over to order a dish and occupies the table, find a waitress and stand in front of him, salute him, and look at him.
And if you have anything to do, go over and ask, Sir, what else do you want?
After going back and forth like this, unless you are really shameless, it is impossible to stay here and not leave.
If you really have that kind of two-skinned person, please call me again and I will find professionals to deal with them.
Just do as I say, I guarantee it’s true! "
Cao Jiajia frowned: "Zhiqiang, what you said is inappropriate, isn't it? Besides, can Uncle He agree?"
"Why is it inappropriate?" Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly, "Sister, you don't really think that my hotel is making money from individual customers, right?
No, you are wrong. From the beginning, I never thought about making money from these individual customers.
The target customers of my hotel are those cadres of state-owned enterprises and government institutions, as well as those intellectuals who are not short of money but pursue quality, status and enjoyment! "
Speaking of this, Cao Zhiqiang looked around, then lowered his voice in Cao Jiajia's ear:
"To be honest, the meal we hosted for our Hongguang Machinery Factory and its fraternal units, as well as Uncle He, the leading cadre of the Hongxing Steel Rolling Plant, was enough for our hotel.
Not to mention, I am relatively familiar with cultural organizations such as the Publishing Bureau, the Cultural Bureau, the TV Station, the Broadcasting Bureau, and the Writers Association. It would be no problem to say hello to them later and ask them to come over and have a meal. .
But those people are all respectable, and they are very particular about the dining environment, service and food taste.
Although we have private rooms here, it would not be appropriate if they find that the cafeteria is always crowded with idle people after they arrive.
Therefore, it is better to offend idlers than cadres.
How much money do ordinary people have in their hands now, and how many meals can they eat?
Leading cadres are different. Most of them eat and drink with public funds and are reimbursed by public funds. They don't care about the price at all.
Other hotels may worry about not getting their money back, but we are different.
Just because of the plaque in our hotel, no one dares to default on the bill, do you understand? "
"Is there anything different about that plaque?" Cao Jiajia asked, "Who wrote that word?"
Cao Zhiqiang sighed: "Sister, don't ask, you just need to know that the person who wrote the plaque for our family has a very unusual identity.
Anyway, generally no one would dare to default on their debt. If someone does, just call me and I will take care of it.
Once or twice, everyone will know that the backend of this store is very tough and cannot be easily offended, and no one will dare to default on their debts again. "
Cao Jiajia was worried: "But if you do this, will you offend those leaders? What if they don't come in the future?"
Cao Zhiqiang slapped his forehead: "Sister, why don't you understand?
Do you know what it means to have no interactions with white people, but to have great scholars when talking and laughing?
This means that whoever you plan to be, just find the circle you want to be in!
If a leading cadre came to eat here and bumped into acquaintances at every turn, or bumped into leading cadres from other units, do you think he would be reluctant to come?
By then, everyone knows that our hotel has a strong backend, many leaders, and we can also meet celebrities in the cultural world.
As time went by, the reputation of this place spread, and it naturally became a natural fame and fortune fair.
You know, our country has a rule called the drinking party culture, and a lot of socializing is done through food.
As long as we build this hotel into such a place, then there will be no need for you to publicize it everywhere. Those who are interested in progress will naturally come here to eat here. Do you understand? "
"Ah, that's the truth." Cao Jiajia nodded, "Zhiqiang, you are the best, you have a sharp mind, you can think of so many things."
Cao Zhiqiang shook his head: "Actually, it's nothing, it's not that I have a very active mind and think a lot.
In fact, many people can think of what I said, but, being able to think of it is one thing, being able to do it is another. "
Speaking of this, Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly: "But I am different. Before I opened this restaurant, I already had a certain status and connections, which means I already have a certain customer base.
As you saw on the opening day, many middle- and high-level leaders from the factory came. Most of them came for my face, not Uncle He’s.
Therefore, our hotel does not need to take too much care of individual customers. We will raise prices when we need to. After all, our target group is not them.
We do not take the initiative to drive people away, but we do select target customers by raising prices.
When everyone knows that eating here costs a lot of money, ordinary people will not come here easily, at least not now. "
Speaking of this, Cao Zhiqiang suddenly felt a dull pain in his lower back again, and couldn't help but frown and hold his lower back.
"What's wrong with you?" Cao Jiajia asked immediately, "Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
"It's nothing." Cao Zhiqiang held his waist and smiled, "It's just that I've been a little busy recently and accidentally slipped my waist."
"Hit your waist?" Cao Jiajia frowned and said, "This matter is big or small. Why don't you go to the hospital to check it out?"
"It's okay, it's a trivial matter. Just rest for a few days and you'll be fine." Cao Zhiqiang chuckled, "Besides, the hospital can't detect this kind of problem. It's just medicine and injections, which is of no use."
"Then you can see Chinese medicine." Cao Jiajia said.
"Zhiqiang, don't underestimate Chinese medicine. Chinese medicine is still very useful in treating waist and leg pain.
Especially since you don't look very good right now. You must be tired, right?
It’s better to see a Chinese medicine doctor and take supplements if necessary, but don’t ignore them just because you are young.
Just like your brother-in-law, he was not afraid of anything when he was young. What happened? Is the root cause of the disease at stake?
You can't imitate your brother-in-law! "
When Cao Zhiqiang heard this, his eyes immediately lit up: "Yes, Chinese medicine, why didn't I think of that?"
Immediately afterwards, Cao Zhiqiang said to Cao Jiajia: "Sister, I understand, I will go see a Chinese medicine doctor right away.
But you must listen to me about things here and change them according to what I say.
Change it early rather than late, and don't be afraid of offending these individual customers, do you hear me? "
"Don't worry." Cao Jiajia said with a smile, "I will listen to you. I will discuss the rectification with Uncle He after playing overseas tonight. Is this finally done?"
"Very good, I'm relieved now." Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly.
