Chapter 67 The Musical Instrument Band

But if McCauley's performance is still poor, then the problem will be even bigger.

After all, the level of investment is different, and so are the leaders' expectations of Macburg.

At present, the meat processing plant's investment in McCauley is only $100,000. As for food and staff...

These are not considered investments, but simply appropriations.

"A movie month is out of the question. At most, we can find two flautists to perform on the opening day of Macburg!"

A movie night costs at least 20,000 yuan.

As for those who play the percussion instrument, they only make three or four hundred a night.

The difference between them is not small.

...

Blowing instruments are very common in the four provinces of China.

In the four provinces of China, whether it's a wedding or a funeral, a band of musicians is always invited to perform.

This custom will continue until 2025.

The Wallace Cinema Month and milk tea gave Ma Wenhong a sense of crisis. Ma Wenhong first sent someone to Wallace to buy milk tea to see if he could copy and paste the same drink.

Afterwards, Ma Wenhong sent his employees to contact a percussion band and arrange for them to perform on the opening day of the Macburg.

However, to Ma Wenhong's surprise, the staff he sent couldn't get a band of musicians to perform.

"What did you say? Several bands in Makino City have reservations for the 23rd?"

Makino City, Macburg.

Ma Wenhong, who was putting the finishing touches on the Macburg, looked suspicious. There were several percussion bands in Makino City, so why did they all have reservations for the 23rd?

"Manager, I've visited all five music troupes in Makino City, and they all say they have clients for the next three days after the 23rd."

"Manager, do you think we should hire a band from out of town? If we do, we'll have to pay them for their travel and accommodation."

Out-of-town percussion troupes would require additional travel and accommodation fees, costing two to three hundred yuan more than local troupes. Ma Wenhong rejected this offer without hesitation.

"Are there hosts for the next three days after the 23rd? Let's arrange it for three days from now."

"Anyway, it won't make a difference if we wait two or three days. We'll definitely have enough people on the opening day of Macburg. We can hire a band three days later."

Ma Wenhong disagreed, saying that Macburg had been promoting itself aggressively lately, not only sending employees to distribute flyers but also broadcasting on the radio. Anyone with a radio could definitely hear the news of Macburg's opening.

He was confident that the opening day would be packed with people!

Even if it's bad, can it be worse than Wallace, which has been open for so many days?

Cheap and affordable is Macburg's ultimate weapon. As long as Wallace's products don't lower their prices, nothing else can threaten Macburg.

He had never heard of Wallace lowering prices on its products. Even if Wallace launched Crazy Thursday, it wasn't a price reduction, but rather a promotion.

"No matter how fancy Wallace's actions are, as long as their products don't go down in price, they pose no threat to us."

"What we need to do now is to ensure that we can open for business as scheduled on the 23rd!"

Ma Wenhong put the matter of the instrument crew out of his mind and began to check for any shortcomings in order to ensure that Macburg could open normally on the 23rd.

Little did he know, this was the worst decision he had ever made.
