Chenxing Internet Cafe's Lucheng branch is located in the podium of a commercial building, covering more than 2,300 square meters, with ample space and 150 computers.
Drawing on the experience of the first chain store, Wuma branch, the Lucheng branch has more room for maneuver in space utilization, making it more luxurious and grand compared to the Wuma branch. Even more impressively, the always suave Chen Daohui hired part-time girls from the Hyatt Bar to act as receptionists. In the cold winter, the receptionists, wearing purple mink miniskirts, were beautiful and revealed their bright thighs, instantly attracting a crowd of onlookers, many of whom went upstairs to experience the so-called "close at hand" internet convenience.
This "bad idea" drew a unanimous bombardment from the proud "princesses" led by Zhao Lin, who complained about his "misuse of public funds" to "pursue girls." If it weren't for the actual good results, Chen Daohui would have wept and cried "unjust" in his defense.
Like the Wuma branch, the Lucheng branch has a relatively independent restaurant. However, unlike the Wuma branch, which has more chairs in the restaurant, the Lucheng branch's restaurant seats have been replaced by sofas: because Yang De found that people who ordered meals and drinks preferred to eat while playing on the computers rather than sitting in the restaurant.
The smoking and non-smoking areas are separated by large glass partitions. With powerful exhaust fans and air conditioning installed, the difference between the two areas is not significant. Behind the spacious bar is a larger office, which is Chen Daohui's office for the Lucheng branch. At this moment, the office was already filled with people: Chen Daohui, Yang De, Ye Lin, Liu Jun, Zhao Lin, Cui Yao, and Shi Tao.
"Have you heard? The threshold of Chenxing Company is almost being worn out by venture capitalists! Tsk tsk tsk!" Liu Jun said with a smile, "I didn't expect that a website that just launched would be so favored by venture capitalists, it's really surprising!"
"Yes! By the way, is Song Chen coming today? As one of the shareholders, he seems to be too indifferent to Chenxing Internet Cafe!" Zhao Lin complained.
"Is he busy?" Yang De smiled and said, "Understand him. Besides, didn't he say he only provides ideas? We are now on track, and we don't need everyone to attend every meeting. If we really have a meeting, I'd rather go to the Hyatt Bar! Although it's spacious here, it gets crowded with too many people."
Ye Lin smiled and said, "Chenxing Company seems to have attracted a great talent yesterday. I heard it was even published in the newspaper! He gave up a $700,000 annual salary to join Chenxing Company, which only pays 2,000 RMB a month. Impressive, right?"
"It's a diamond, it will shine no matter what!" Shi Tao sighed, "Brother Song Chen will achieve great things in the future!"
"It's too early to say!" Pushing open the heavy redwood door, Song Chen, whose clothes were still dripping with rain, walked in with the charming Zhang Ruoxi, "If I go bankrupt in the future, I'll rely on all of you for help!"
"Oh, our busy Mr. Song is here!" Zhao Lin said sarcastically.
"Ha ha!" Everyone laughed.
Zhang Ruoxi glared at Zhao Lin fiercely and scolded, "Nerve!"
There was only one extra seat on the leather sofa. Song Chen let Zhang Ruoxi sit on the sofa and sat on the armrest next to her, smiling at Yang De, "How's it going? I heard from Sister Yan that you've already found the location for the third branch! You're negotiating with the shop owner, how's it going?"
"Pretty good! When they heard I'm the owner of Chenxing Internet Cafe, there were only some disagreements about the lease term, but everything else is almost settled!" Yang De smiled, "But you, are you really that busy? You couldn't even come to the gathering, and you haven't been to the Hyatt Bar for almost a month, right?"
Song Chen smiled bitterly and spread his hands, "The employees in the company are working overtime to develop software. Even Sister Yan and Sister Yan come home very late. As the boss, I can't set a bad example, right? Plus, there's the school branch and the computer room, I wish I could split myself in two!"
"If you could split yourself in two, I'm sure someone would be very happy!" Zhao Lin smiled mischievously at Zhang Ruoxi, who glared at her with a warning look.
Everyone was very concerned about Song Chen's business. Chen Daohui asked, "I heard your company attracted a great talent yesterday!"
"Yale University Bachelor of Arts in Economics and East Asian Studies, Harvard MBA, Yale Law School Doctor of Jurisprudence! Has a New York State lawyer's license! And investment experience!" Song Chen raised his thumb, his eyebrows moving up and down, proudly boasting, "Impressive, right? I talked him into joining!"
Everyone was surprised by Cai Chongxin's impressive credentials. Zhang Ruoxi, though proud, said with a thin scowl, "What do you mean by 'talked him into'? How can you say that? He must have seen the great potential of Chenxing Company! Otherwise, no matter how much you talk, he wouldn't care!"
"Hehe, you're already speaking up for your lover before you're even married!" Yang De teased.
Zhang Ruoxi didn't blush, but her face turned red as she said shyly, "Of course!"
Zhao Lin said sourly, "My Ji Chang won't be any worse in the future!"
Mentioning Ji Chang, Liu Tao said with a smile, "By the way, Princess Lin, your man has been very busy lately, just like Little Song, always out of sight. Where has he gone?"
"Who knows?" Zhao Lin pouted, "He disappears right after class, I don't care about him!"
After teasing for a while, Yang De signaled everyone to quiet down and said to Song Chen, "I invited you here today mainly to ask for your advice on something!"
"Oh? What is it?" Song Chen asked in surprise.
"We plan to have Liu Jun and Ye Lin raise four million to expand the internet cafe business in Huating City! Liu Jun has relatives and connections in Huating City, making him a good candidate!"
Everyone looked at Song Chen. Song Chen was silent for a moment and asked, "Last month's profit hasn't been distributed yet. Using it for further investment is no problem! Plus, we have tens of thousands in advertising fees, restaurant sales, and 2.7 million in liquid funds, which can barely make up the four million. But what about the third branch? If we use the mortgage from the Lucheng branch to replicate the third chain store, the company's funds will be completely drained!"
"That's not a big issue!" Shi Tao pondered, "We've seen the operating conditions of the internet cafe over the past month, and the profit realization ability is strong! As long as there's no sudden accident, I don't think there's a problem! Besides, we still have hundreds of thousands in member funds that we haven't touched!"
I forgot that the internet cafe's profit realization ability is indeed strong. Moreover, even if there is an accident, with the government's support, it's not a big problem. Song Chen pondered for a moment and nodded, "Although it's aggressive, it's indeed a good strategy. Perhaps within a year, we can have nearly ten high-end internet cafes! But you need to pay attention to the talent reserve issue that must accompany the aggressive expansion plan!"
Liu Jun smiled, "No problem. Like your company, we haven't stopped recruiting since opening. The internet cafe has always had more staff than needed, and the old staff have been training the new ones for this expansion plan."
"I have no objections!" Song Chen smiled and shrugged, "I have a small marketing idea. Be bold and claim it's the most luxurious high-end chain internet cafe in the country. The bigger the scale, the more impressive it looks, and the more the Chinese people will trust it!"
"Are you not afraid of being exposed for exaggerating?" Zhang Ruoxi giggled, tapping Song Chen's thigh with her hand.
"Hehe!"
