At noon, the two brothers ate something nearby.

It is worth mentioning that during this period, two or three waves of people have come to ask when the store will open. Shen Qian seemed very happy and told the potential customers who came forward to ask that it is expected to open on November 1, and promised to give discounts to several people at that time.

At around 1:30, three trucks assembling the machines arrived outside the store.

The next step was the busy bringing in and debugging of the machines. Shen was busy running around, observing various data to ensure that there would be no problems with the machines when the business opened.

The debugging of the machine took more time than Shen Chuan had imagined, especially the large color machine. It took two or three hours to assemble it, and the subsequent debugging took even longer.

The entire debugging process lasted until ten o'clock in the evening, and an entire box of paper was used for testing alone.

Finally, Chen Chuan transferred the money on the spot, deducted the 100,000 deposit, and made up the balance, spending a total of 1.1 million. There was still 3.1 million left in the card, feeling very secure.

Shen Qian also gave each of the debugging masters two packs of cigarettes and a red envelope to thank them for their seriousness and responsibility. The debugging masters smiled so hard that their mouths were crooked, and promised that if they encountered any problems during use in the future, they could just call them and they would guide them and solve them over the phone, and they would never let Boss Shen waste a penny.

Finally, Shen Qian added a few people on WeChat to establish good relationships for subsequent operations.

Chen Chuan didn't expect that his brother had this ability. These masters who debugged the machines were all maintenance technicians, and they would inevitably have to deal with each other in the future. It would be better to leave a good impression now so that they wouldn't make things difficult for you when repairing the machine in the future.

Don't underestimate these repairmen. If you don't know anything, they can blackmail you at will. They can say something is broken that is clearly not broken, and you have no way to deal with them.

After all the masters left, Shen Qian looked at the full machine, his heart full of security.

These will be the key to whether he can stand up straight.

Finally, after making sure all the power was turned off, the two brothers left, but instead of going home immediately, they went to a nearby barbecue restaurant.

The two of them didn't drink any alcohol, but just ordered some barbecue and ate it with relish.

"Brother, do you know how many colleagues there are around?"

"Well, I've been looking around the area these past few days. There are about 20 graphic arts stores in the entire park, three of which are large chain stores, six of which are about the same size as ours, and the rest are small graphic arts stores."

"These can be seen, and perhaps there are still some in some office buildings."

Chen Chuan nodded slightly and asked again, "Is the price list and everything ready?"

"I have an idea in mind. I will sort it out during the recruitment period in the next few days."

"Do you think I should go with the account-based payment method or the card-based payment method?"

Shen Chuan asked: "Which way do you think is better?"

"I've inquired, and most large graphic stores mainly use the recharge card model, but the corresponding prices are slightly lower. The price of the account-based model is higher, but checking out is also a hassle."

"Which one do you prefer?"

Shen Qian thought for a moment and said, “Of course it’s the card charging method. The account suspension method will result in bad debts. Some companies will run away in the later stage and you won’t know where to find people.”

"That's true. Recharging a card does have fewer risks and can even make customers more loyal."

"Great! My initial plan is to divide customers into five tiers based on their top-up amounts, with the lowest tier having a top-up amount of 100 and the highest tier having a top-up amount of 50,000."

Chen Chuan put down his chopsticks and said in disbelief, "What the hell!? Who are you looking down on with this little top-up amount?"

"What do you mean, you think I set the bar too low?"

"It's more than just low. This is a software park, and the customers who come to the store are basically companies. I won't say too much, but a company with about a hundred employees should have an annual business volume of around 100,000, right?"

"Your settings are unreasonable, very unreasonable."

Shen Qian said: "Tell me your ideas and I'll take them into consideration."

"In my opinion, the lowest threshold should be set at 5,000. Top up 5,000 and get 500 free. The second tier is top up and get 5,000 free. There is no upper limit. The maximum amount you can top up is the amount you get free. It's like giving customers a 50% discount."

"By the way, a 50% discount should be profitable, right?"

Shen Qian was stunned: “Are you serious?”

"Of course I'm serious. I'm asking you if there's any profit with a 50% discount. I don't know the price. If there's no profit, or the profit is too low, then change the gift amount."

"Of course there is profit. For printing and copying, I plan to set the price at 0.2 yuan and color printing at 0.8 yuan. In short, even if I give a 50% discount on both, there will still be a certain profit."

"As long as there's profit, it's fine. I don't understand the price, so you decide." Chen Chuan smiled slightly, "Don't underestimate some big companies. I believe there are some companies with annual business volumes exceeding 1 million."

Shen Qianyuan was not as optimistic as him. Instead, he said worriedly, "I'm afraid that this kind of company has its own printing room."

"This situation is not ruled out, but graphic shops with professional equipment and professional designers are not available to large companies. Not every company is willing to spend millions on machines and full-time staff."

"And this is only a rare case. Who among the truly large companies cares about such printing costs? They want efficiency and professionalism."

"What you said makes some sense, but does the bar really have to be set so high?"

Shen Qian was still a little uneasy.

"You'll be right if you listen to me."

Chen Chuan made up his mind. He could just pay for the child's support himself, but he couldn't let his brother lose confidence.

......

Chen Chuan basically didn't need to worry about anything after that. He no longer took care of the store's affairs. He wanted to go and see Xiao Ming, but was rejected by Xiao Ming.
