Chapter 406 Outdoor Blogger
A few days later, unmanned stores of [Insist on Visiting] were opened in six communities in Hangzhou.
The products inside are quite complete, and there are even one-size-fits-all QQ underwear.
In addition, the overall retail price is consistent with that of the online store, and the price is not deliberately raised just because it is a physical store.
In this way, compared with other QQ physical stores, it has a certain price advantage.
You know, QQ underwear that only costs a few dozen yuan a piece online is sold for several times the price in many physical stores these days.
Compared with the factory price, the retail price in QQ physical stores may be more than ten times higher!
Generally speaking, the emergence of online stores has brought a huge impact on these physical stores.
The same is true for unmanned stores like the one Cheng Zhu is opening now!
In the afternoon, Cheng Zhu brought Wang Anquan to the unmanned store in Zhongxing Community.
Zhongxing Community is the pilot project that he currently attaches the most importance to.
The reason is simple: this community has the most residents.
This is related to the housing layout of the community.
When the landlords in this community were building their houses, they converted the houses downstairs that were rented out into small apartments.
In other words, many houses have two, three, or even four families living on one floor.
In addition, Zhongxing Community itself is quite large, so the unmanned store serves a relatively wide range of people.
More importantly, when Cheng Zhu drove Wang Anquan around the neighborhood, he found that there were many foot massage shops near the community.
If nothing unexpected happens, some of the technicians there should live nearby in Zhongxing Community.
Some regular customers may not go to the store to do small or medium projects, but will choose to go directly to the rental house to do large projects.
Perhaps these people will also stimulate consumption in unmanned stores.
At this moment, Cheng Zhu took out his mobile phone and took a few random photos of the store.
"I will post these photos on our official Weibo account later to do some preliminary publicity." Cheng Zhu said.
“Then someone should come to check in.” Wang Anquan replied with a smile.
Cheng Zhu nodded slightly, this was inevitable.
Some internet porn actors really want to take advantage of the store's traffic, and some even want to come to the store to be QQ models, and they are all very eager to do so.
He could even anticipate what these people would do.
Of course, these subsequent chain reactions are not what we need to consider in the next two days.
In the QQ world, he now has a great early advantage.
Because he had created an Internet-famous store, he suddenly felt that the franchise model of unmanned convenience stores might be more promising than he had expected.
The franchise fee will definitely not be too high, it will only be set at tens of thousands of yuan.
But whether it is a vending machine or other equipment, there is still profit to be made from the price difference.
Not to mention the subsequent designated source of goods.
Since it is a franchise store, he has the final say on what goods to sell.
This means that after giving Cheng Zhu money, these people will continue to come to his factory to purchase goods.
"If we can open 1,000 stores across the country, the franchise fee alone will be tens of millions."
“Plus some hidden benefits, and subsequent profits from goods.”
"If done well, this could be a multi-million dollar deal!"
“It can make money and enhance brand awareness.”
"One arrow kills two birds with one stone!"
"I'm so awesome! I should be the one to film The Legend of the Condor Heroes."
Now the key is to see whether the traffic can explode.
And what form will it take to create a wave?
"As for the irregular traffic you mentioned, I will only guide it." Cheng Zhu looked at Wang Anquan with a serious face: "Now a lot of business is handed over to you to handle, you must remember this."
This kind of channel must not be used personally to operate.
Everything you do will leave traces.
Something bad may happen in the future.
Whether it is selling QQ underwear or QQ toys, it is essentially a legal and legitimate business.
But you must never lay a landmine for yourself.
What's more, Cheng Zhu is too familiar with these internet pornographic videos!
He knew very well that a little guidance would be enough.
When Wang Anquan heard this and saw that Zhu Ge's expression was very serious, he immediately nodded.
He recalled carefully and realized that Brother Zhu had indeed been doing some weird things all the time, but he had never done anything too outrageous.
In Cheng Zhu's view, these women are all his tools.
You just need to treat her as a tool.
Remember not to make close friends.
At night, Cheng Zhu promoted the six unmanned stores in Hangzhou on the official Weibo of [Persist in Visiting].
After doing this, he did not proceed to the next step.
Wang Anquan was a little confused about this.
"Brother Zhu, you have already formulated a perfect marketing plan, why don't you start now?"
Cheng Zhu looked at him and said, "Let's take a look at the natural conditions in the community first."
He was quite curious. In 2015, if he didn't exert too much external promotion, would this kind of QQ unmanned convenience store be successful in the community?
If you adopt the franchise model, you will definitely have to engage in crazy marketing so that more people will line up to join.
But Cheng Zhu's original intention was not to reap the profits.
He still hopes that those who join can make some money.
That's why he wanted to observe a little.
The night gradually deepened.
After finishing overtime, social animal Wang Tao rode his electric scooter back to Zhongxing Community.
He first went into the convenience store in the community and bought a rice ball and a can of beer.
This is his little habit every time he works overtime, he always has to have a midnight snack to reward himself for being tired.
Even though rice balls and beer were considered a reward, they did seem a bit shabby and pathetic.
"Sir, your rice balls are ready." The cashier at the convenience store reminded.
Wang Tao took the rice ball and sat down at the table in the convenience store.
While eating, he picked up his mobile phone and sent a WeChat message to the technician No. 666 whom he was familiar with.
For people like him, the biggest relaxation every month is to go to the foot massage parlor around the community.
Wang Tao firmly believes: "This is less stressful than being in a relationship."
There is a colleague in his company who is a big shot and spends women's money, but he is tall and handsome, has good physical conditions, and has a very high emotional intelligence.
Look at myself again: I am poor, ugly, short, and don’t know how to chat with girls.
"Liu Liu is still the best." He praised technician No. 666 in his heart.
Beautiful people, kind heart and good service.
She won't say much even when she is very tired from work.
When I want to chat, she will respond with anything and even call me a bad boy.
There is no need to maintain this relationship on a daily basis. When we meet, we are the closest partners.
"Even if I went to see her after drinking a little, she would not get upset, but would be more patient."
By the time Wang Tao finished his rice balls and beer, 666 still hadn't replied to his WeChat message.
It seems she is busy.
Just as he was about to go home, his cell phone rang.
"I took a break today and went to see a movie, which just ended." Liu Liu said.
"Is it convenient for you today?" His heart warmed.
"Other people's words definitely won't work, but Brother Tao's words are fine!" Liu Liu responded with a shy expression.
Wang Tao had a tacit understanding with her and knew that this meant he could go directly to her house later.
As he walked down the street, he immediately felt that the cold wind blowing in his face was warm.
Liu Liu told him that she planned to return to her hometown and get married after working for another two years.
She is very confident that with her looks, she can find a decent husband.
Maybe you can even receive hundreds of thousands of dollars in betrothal gifts.
Wang Tao did not feel uncomfortable after hearing such words. On the contrary, he felt it was very exciting.
You are playing with the wife that others spent hundreds of thousands to marry.
"Let's go buy some equipment." Wang Tao thought.
"The ones Liu Liu prepared at home are too thick and uncomfortable. She just wants to save money and I don't know what kind of brand they are." He thought to himself.
Therefore, he sometimes chooses to buy it himself.
After buying it, he would take the whole box with him without unpacking it.
Otherwise, people like Liu Liu would not be allowed to use the things they brought with them.
Who knows if some perverted men would deliberately pierce a small hole to seek psychological pleasure?
If the packaging is intact, then there is no big problem.
At this moment, Wang Tao originally wanted to go back to the convenience store.
But just as he was about to turn around, his eyes were attracted by a store in front of him.
It is so special and so eye-catching.
"QQ supplies unmanned store?" Wang Tao was stunned.
"When did such a store open in Zhongxing Community?" He was a little confused.
Wang Tao is a very introverted person. If this were a proper QQ physical store, he might not be comfortable going in.
But since it is an unmanned store.
Wang Tao looked around and saw that there were not many people around, so he rushed into the store at the speed of light!
He stood in front of the vending machine and was truly amazed.
"Fuck, there actually is a store like this?" It was the first time Wang Tao heard of it.
It can be said that there is everything here, which can meet the needs of most customer groups.
Wang Tao originally came to buy a small umbrella, and now standing in front of the dazzling array of goods, he was a little eager to buy something.
"Would you like to buy a uniform?"
"Liuliu will definitely be willing to cooperate."
"Let's take a look at the price. If it's too expensive, forget it." Office workers don't have much money in their pockets. If they want to be extravagant, they also have to consider the cost-effectiveness.
The one Wang Tao chose was a stepmother skirt, which was packed in a paper box and was not expensive.
But he is not the kind of man who spends money lavishly. With the rise of online shopping, he gradually developed a consumption habit, which is to compare prices online.
He searched and found the same model at the same price.
Wang Tao gritted his teeth and bought it for today's happiness!
Three days later, Cheng Zhu sat in the office of [Insist on Visiting], looked at the various data that Wang Anquan brought to the office, and began to calculate the accounts.
He personally thinks that in 2015, this type of unmanned store is still quite promising.
Apart from anything else, it is considered a relatively curious existence nowadays.
Moreover, men are more frugal in some aspects, but in other aspects, they are willing to spend money.
Otherwise, how do we say: Impotence is a blessing for middle-aged men.
Wang Anquan stood aside and watched Zhu Ge making calculations.
After finishing the calculation, Cheng Zhu showed a rather satisfied look on his face.
“Now that these six stores have just opened in six communities, many people haven’t noticed them yet.”
"I personally guess that subsequent business may be even better." Cheng Zhu analyzed.
Wang Anquan was immediately curious: "Brother Zhu, did you make a lot of money? How long will it take to get your money back?"
Cheng Zhu waved his hand and said, "You think too much."
He tapped the table with his fingers and said, "How can making money be so easy and comfortable?"
"Do you really think you can make a lot of money by just setting up a one-room shop in the community and putting a few machines there?"
“Impossible!”
"It would be good if I can get back my investment steadily and make a small profit."
"Based on the data from the six pilot projects in Hangzhou, it is absolutely possible for franchisees to make back their investment without any marketing."
"Of course, how much profit this thing makes actually has a lot to do with the location."
“Some people are lucky and choose a neighborhood with many potential customers.”
"Some people are unlucky, and maybe there are just not many potential customers."
"Look, the data of Zhongxing Community, which I value, is quite impressive, 35% higher than the second place!"
"I have to say, people in places where there are many foot massage shops tend to enjoy themselves more!" Cheng Zhu smiled.
Wang Anquan felt a little uneasy when he heard this.
He has never been to such a store.
He was quite curious: "I wonder if Brother Zhu has been there?"
But Wang Anquan didn't dare to ask.
He is just curious now: "Brother Zhu, how long will it take for others to get their money back if they join our store?"
"Let's just talk about Hangzhou, because rents vary from place to place, and rent is actually the biggest expense for this kind of store. For a store like Zhongxing Community, the payback is actually quite fast. But for a more average store, I estimate it will take about a year."
"Ah? It will take a year to make back the investment." Wang Anquan was shocked.
"Have you been following me around to make money, and have you developed an illusion that money is easy to make and business is easy to do in this world?" Cheng Zhu couldn't help but laugh and scold a few times.
"You're quite floating!"
For a store like this that saves time and effort, it would be good enough if it could make back its investment in a year.
Wang Anquan felt a little embarrassed after being scolded. He had indeed watched Cheng Zhu make his online store flourish during the summer vacation. As a freshman in college, he had already bought a Land Rover to go to school. His intuitive feeling must have been different.
But Wang Anquan knew exactly how awesome Zhu Ge was.
Nowadays, a lot of work is coordinated by him and Chen Bin.
When middle-aged Abin learned that Mr. Cheng was going to open this kind of unmanned vending franchise store, he was simply astonished.
“Is it possible to do this?”
Not only can you earn franchise fees, but you can also open up the supply channels for your own factory!
Like when he set up a factory before, he was only thinking about getting more physical stores to buy goods from him.
Now, Cheng Zhu’s idea is that others come to him with money to apply to open a store, and then he will approve it for you, and finally give you the qualification to sell the goods in my factory!
Of course, the business logic here is not like this.
But as the factory director, Chen Bin insisted on thinking this way.
"Awesome! Our factory is awesome!"
Middle-aged Abin feels that his back has become straighter again!
After a few days of observation, Cheng Zhu felt that the marketing plan he had previously formulated could be put into practice.
Many soft advertisements will be widely released. Stores of this nature have enough gimmicks to attract attention.
Time moved forward two days.
In the afternoon, Wang Anquan suddenly called Cheng Zhu and told him something.
After hearing what was said on the phone, Cheng Zhu was stunned for a moment, then he felt that all this was unexpected yet reasonable.
He just didn't expect it to get to this point.
Now Xiao Wang feels that Brother Zhu is truly a man of foresight.
Just as he had predicted, some internet porn started to cause trouble!
[Chitujiang] is an outdoor blogger, yes, the kind of outdoor that you think of.
Her nickname is taken from "Lü Bu among men, Red Hare among horses."
And horses are meant to be ridden.
Red Hare is undoubtedly a good horse!
During this period, Chi Tujiang, who was in Hangzhou, had a headache.
She couldn't find a suitable outdoor venue recently.
As a popular outdoor blogger in the online porn circle, her main focus is on never repeating the outdoor venues!
There are traces of her activities in places like the Ferris wheel in a children's playground, the pavilion on the mountain, the back mountain of a university, and a rooftop.
Recently, her traffic and income have declined.
The reason is simple, she hasn't released a hit video for a long time.
For outdoor bloggers like them, the chosen venue is extremely important.
The venue can have a huge impact on the visual impact and mental stimulation it brings to the audience.
"Where should we record the next video?" Chi Tu Jiang couldn't find a place she liked.
Just a few days ago, when she was browsing Weibo, she saw a post from the official Weibo account of "Persist in Visiting", a website she followed.
"Opened six unmanned stores in Hangzhou?" Chi Tujiang's eyes lit up.
What a great place! This is a great place!
You can go here by yourself, and travel light!
"I don't even need to bring tools. I can just buy them from the vending machine!" Chi Tujiang's ideas became clearer and clearer.
"Many people are definitely curious about this kind of store and find it very interesting."
"I walked around inside and used the vending machines, which was definitely one of the highlights."
"Then, I'll just take the stuff apart and use it right there!"
She began to brainstorm, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that this script was very reliable and would definitely be worth watching!
But if it were just that, it would feel like something was missing.
After all, this is actually an indoor venue and there is no one around.
Therefore, she would call her two male assistants to cooperate with her in acting.
For example, when I was doing something, a stranger outside the door said, "Fuck, there's a QQ store here!"
At this moment, her acting skills exploded and she was so scared that her legs trembled.
Of course, in this stage, the assistant only needs to make a sound, but ultimately for various reasons, he did not come in, thus achieving the effect of a false alarm.
Also, in the second half of the video, one of the male assistants will come in to buy something!
Letting more people in at this time can achieve a progressive plot effect!
Director Chi Tu: At this time, I would have to tidy up my appearance in a panic and pretend nothing happened, and the other party would look at me with a little confusion.
"That look is enough to make my legs turn inward!"
The more she thought about it, the more excited she became, and the more she felt there was a lot of potential for fun.
"That's right! Before you leave, you should check the surveillance cameras in the store and pretend that you just discovered there are surveillance cameras!"
"Ah! It's all recorded by the surveillance camera!"
After having a perfect set of plot, Chi Tujiang decided to do it right away and do it at 3:30 tonight!
Of course, the final video will be edited.
Before entering the store, she would take pictures of the large crowds of people outside the store around eight or nine o'clock.
But if you want to go to an unmanned store to "entertain yourself", you must wait until late at night to avoid any trouble in the process.
The shooting of the entire video can be said to be extremely smooth.
Chitujiang also felt very good about herself. She had a lot of fun and it was very interesting.
She even took a look at the store’s surveillance video, wondering, “Will the boss [who insists on visiting] come and look at the surveillance video?”
And this video lived up to her expectations and became the biggest hit of her career!
When Cheng Zhu received a call from Wang Anquan, Wang Anquan said that this video was very popular.
He asked directly: "How popular is it?"
Wang Anquan’s answer was: “As popular as possible!”
(ps: two in one, please give me a monthly ticket~)
