Positioning within a consumer segment is very important.
In shopping districts like Shanghai, even a simple bowl of plain noodles costs 88 yuan per person.
If you want a more substantial meal, it will cost at least three or four hundred yuan per person.
This is the terrifying price level in Shanghai!
Based on Lu Yiming's description, the food here must be high-end, and the prices certainly won't be cheap.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yiming once again made a startling statement.
"Spending? Let's set it at around 25 yuan per employee per meal," Lu Yiming said casually.
"What!" Mu Xia was completely stunned.
She never expected Lu Yiming to give this reply!
Twenty-five yuan?
You can't even buy an iced Americano around here!
Want to have lunch again?
Are you suggesting we serve those employees plain rice and steamed buns?
Mu Xia even wondered if Lu Yiming had never eaten at a restaurant outside of Shanghai.
So you have no idea about the prices in Shanghai?
"Wow! 25 yuan for a meal? In Shanghai, that's only enough to buy two steamed buns!"
"A meal for 25 yuan? In this business district? What are you thinking? If you can imagine that, then none of the businesses that are actually here could possibly do it!"
"Has Lu Yiming never eaten out before? Does he really know the prices in Shanghai?"
...
The live stream chat erupted in uproar.
"Of course it's not just twenty-five yuan." Seeing Mu Xia's shocked expression, Lu Yiming knew she had misunderstood him and explained:
"What I mean is that each employee's personal expenses should be kept to around 25 yuan."
The remaining costs will be subsidized by the company.
Mu Xia finally breathed a sigh of relief and pressed for an answer:
"How much should each of us receive as a subsidy?"
"To ensure our employees are well-fed, we'll subsidize each person with about a thousand yuan per meal," Lu Yiming said casually.
"What!" Mu Xia was truly dumbfounded.
She suddenly remembered the expensive boxed lunch that cost a thousand yuan yesterday.
She thought Lu Yiming was rewarding his employees, giving them a super perk that he occasionally gave away.
But she never expected that this was not a coincidence, but the norm!
If an employee eats both lunch and dinner in the cafeteria, then the company will have to pay 2,000 yuan per person per day!
If you add in the costs of water and electricity, as well as the wear and tear and maintenance of those recreational facilities...
In just one month, we'll lose millions!
Even the most powerful company can't withstand this kind of disruption!
"What's wrong? Is there a problem?" Lu Yiming asked, puzzled.
"No...no problem, it's just...is this investment a bit too much?" Mu Xia asked tentatively.
"Even if you only give them a subsidy of one hundred yuan per meal, the employees will be very grateful to you."
"Mu Xia, do you think I did these things just to get the employees' gratitude?" Lu Yiming shook his head, feigning disappointment, and said:
"I genuinely want my employees to be successful, and even if no one thanks me, I will remain steadfast in doing this well!"
To me, my employees are like generals charging into battle! And I'm just a cook, merely responsible for providing logistical support.
"Holy crap! Lu Yiming's words are legendary!"
"The vision is too grand! The vision is absolutely, unbelievably grand!"
"Damn! With a boss like that, who wouldn't work their butt off for him!"
"Waaaaah, I just showed it to my boss, and he told me to get out and not come in tomorrow. [crying]"
...
Countless viewers in the live stream were moved to tears.
Meanwhile, at Lu Yiming's company.
Countless employees were also watching the live stream.
Upon hearing Lu Yiming's words, countless employees were moved to tears.
"Chairman...the chairman is such a good person!"
"Just because of what the chairman said! I'm willing to work overtime until I die!"
"Don't even mention working yourself to death! Even if the chairman stabs me in the back one day, I'll still praise him for doing it right! I'll say it felt good!"
...
[Ding! Shock value gained +!]
"Alright, I'll leave this matter entirely to you."
Of course, we can't entrust all the big and small matters to you alone.
You select some colleagues to form a catering department, specifically responsible for purchasing ingredients for the employee cafeteria, selecting chefs, and handling daily maintenance and supervision.
My requirements are very simple:
First, the menu must be diverse, including all kinds of French and Japanese cuisine, and none of the eight major Chinese cuisines should be omitted!
Secondly, we are responsible for all the food in the canteen! We must ensure the safety of our employees' food in the canteen is firmly in our own hands!
Thirdly, speed is key; we must strive to ensure that all our employees can enjoy healthy meals as soon as possible!
"Yes, Chairman! I guarantee the mission will be accomplished!"

Meanwhile, on Chen Tai's side...
Although he was very tired, Chen Tai still got up very early in the morning.
I changed into the cheap suit provided by the production team, took a taxi to the subway again, squeezed onto the subway for an hour, and finally arrived at the fund where I work.
"Hello, my name is Chen Tai, and I'm a newly hired sales consultant." Chen Tai handed his business card to the leader of his sales team.
The sales team leader was very young and was chatting and joking with the other girls in the sales department, completely ignoring Chen Tai.
Hearing Chen Tai's words, he frowned impatiently, looked at the business card in Chen Tai's hand, and revealed an extremely mocking expression, saying:
