There were few people in the small restaurant during non-meal time, and the distance between the two tables was not far. They were not whispering, so they could hear most of what each other said.
Chang Zhiqing raised her eyebrows and whispered in a tone that only the two of them could hear: "Wow, you can meet employees from your own company just by going out for a meal?"
"They are probably not employees, but just contracted bloggers or anchors of a certain platform." Yang Ruoqian retracted his gaze, shook his head and smiled, "Such contracts can be found all over the country, so it's not surprising to encounter them occasionally."
Chang Zhiqing asked again: "Well, this kid seems quite reserved. Should we go up and give him some spiritual chicken soup?"
The blogger, who had just exuded a lazy air, was now sitting upright, picking up the mushy chicken noodles in the can with his chopsticks.
While eating, he continued to comment: "Any normal human being would not eat this industrial treasure for two consecutive days. They would rather die of hunger than eat it... unless it's buy one get one free."
“Buy two for 6 bucks, so delicious!”
"Have another sip of soybean juice. Mmm, pure, old-fashioned, authentic flavor. Roll as far away as you can."
After entering the state of recording the video, he seemed to be giving it his all, not paying attention to the two bosses' stares, and quickly finished the canned food bite by bite. He commented: "The taste is very average, the seasoning is okay, and the amount of chicken is surprisingly large."
After saying that, he reached out to his phone, turned off the camera, picked up the empty can and prepared to run away.
Halfway through his run, he turned back to the dining table and took a book from the table that was used as a cushion.
Yang Ruoqian stopped pretending and suddenly said, "Young man, come and sit down. I have something to ask you."
In just a few minutes, Yang Ruoqian had developed a strong interest in this anchor who was signed to his own guild.
Why would a blogger who can work anywhere go to a place like the capital where the cost of consumption and living is so huge?
Moreover, they insist on eating pre-prepared meals and this extremely cheap "industrial waste".
Isn't it just torturing yourself? Just now, this blogger also said that these canned foods are produced by restaurants under the Kuiguang Group.
Has our group developed to this extent without us noticing?
Upon hearing Yang Ruoqian's voice, the blogger's body trembled, and the guilty expression on his face immediately turned into reality. He did not dare to resist and immediately sat down opposite Yang Ruoqian and Chang Zhiqing.
Yang Ruoqian didn't want to embarrass a young blogger. He pushed the soy milk aside and asked curiously, "Why don't young people eat something nutritious when they are growing up? It is easy to have unbalanced nutrition if you take this kind of convenient emergency food as your staple food."
Yang Ruoqian doesn't have as many prejudices as his elders towards convenience foods and pre-prepared meals.
He never believed the nonsense that it causes cancer, has no nutritional value, contains hundreds of preservatives, and cannot be digested in the stomach for 32 hours.
However, it is an indisputable fact that eating this kind of food with relatively single nutritional components for a long time will cause nutritional imbalance.
As an employee of Kuiguang Group, whether you work at the company headquarters or a branch, you can enjoy luxurious and nutritious work meals.
Even employees who are unable to eat in the company cafeteria due to business trips or work reasons can get a special food allowance, which can only be used for meals, cannot be redeemed for cash, and cannot be refused.
With this allowance, you can eat whatever you want without any worries even if you go to the four first-tier cities.
So it stands to reason that as long as you are connected with the group, there will be no problem of eating badly.
But this blogger actually bought a buy-one-get-one-free can of food for 6 dollars to solve his meal problem?
If it is found out that the group's live broadcast department is responsible, Yang Ruoqian is prepared to hold Lin Cao accountable.
If one anchor saves a little allowance, a group of anchors can save a lot of allowances!
When the blogger heard the boss' question, he immediately shook his head and explained, "No, Mr. Yang, I'm just shooting a video... and I've had that habit of, uh, saving money since I was a kid?"
"When I saw two cans for 3 yuan, I couldn't resist the urge to buy it!"
As he finished speaking, his eyes lit up, as if he were one of those bargain hunters who saw the coupons.
Hearing this, Yang Ruoqian's mouth twitched, and he quickly changed the subject: "I see you like reading a lot. You brought a book with you to dinner just now? What book was it?"
Wow, it turns out this guy is enjoying it.
Buying canned food that costs an average of 3 yuan per portion, and successfully getting a bargain, would give him a morbid sense of satisfaction, right?
It turns out that I was meddling in other people's business and disturbed the blogger's interest.
"Haha... idle books, idle books!" The blogger looked even more embarrassed. "Mr. Yang is very busy, he probably doesn't have the mood to read this kind of book."
"It's okay, let's take a look." Yang Ruoqian just glanced at the cover. Although he didn't see clearly what was written on it, he was sure that it was not an improper book.
Under the urging of his boss, the blogger had no choice but to take the book out from under the table with great reluctance.
There are a few big words printed on the cover.
How to Win Friends and Influence People - by Dale Carnegie.
“…”
When Yang Ruoqian thought about how the blogger put a can of food with an average price of 3 yuan in this book and complained about the convenience brought by industrialization, he felt like laughing for some reason.
“I’d rather starve to death than eat it unless you buy one get one free” always has an inexplicable sense of humor when paired with this book used as a desk mat.
After taking a look at the cover of the book, Yang Ruoqian praised it, "Not bad, it has a bright future. Work hard, and if you do well, you can boldly ask your leader for a commission and a change of contract. Don't be timid."
After the blogger left cautiously, Yang Ruoqian opened his mobile phone and began searching for keywords such as "Kuiguang Group canned food" and "Kuiguang Group restaurant pre-prepared dishes" on various platforms.
In order to increase costs, Yang Ruoqian made it a rule that all offline restaurants are not allowed to use pre-prepared dishes for dine-in and take-out. If pre-prepared dishes are really necessary, they must be indicated on the menu.
Every restaurant uses a transparent kitchen.
Pre-prepared dishes like canned food should be sold at the counter outside the restaurant or convenient foods linked to the restaurant's IP.
But Yang Ruoqian had not expected that it could be done so cheaply.
Sure enough, as soon as he entered the keywords, Yang Ruoqian saw the related discussion posts.
#Sanhe God's Happy Meal# #Thanks to Kuiguang Group for letting everyone see the beauty of industrialization, thank you# #Only such pre-prepared dishes will not be boycotted, some unscrupulous merchants should take a look and learn more# Yang Ruoqian nodded slightly to the aunt who brought the snacks, then turned his eyes, randomly picked one and clicked it.
A topic post contains several photos, some text and a video link.
"Master Rijie, please have a look! The latest guide to Earth Online is out!"
"I was working as a waiter at xx department store recently. During my lunch break, I wandered around and discovered something incredible."
The so-called "great gods" are those who are completely black in online loans, have no special skills, can only make money by doing odd jobs, live in "wall-mounted houses" that cost 20 or 30 yuan a night, eat cheap food, and live one day at a time.
These people live their lives by pursuing the ultimate value for money.
After going over the basic information of these great gods in his mind, Yang Ruoqian continued to read on.
"Guess what I found? Buy one, get one free instant hamburger and mashed potatoes combo for $12!"
"Although this kind of activity is not permanent, the Kuiguang Group has many stores. As long as you walk around the nearby department stores, you can always find a restaurant that is holding an activity. The price is basically no more than 7 yuan per meal, and there are staple foods and meat, and the portions are not small."
"Brothers, the benefits of Kuiguang Group have finally landed on us, why don't you hurry up and grab them! One more can means a few more hours of internet fees, hurry up!"
"If you're late, you won't be able to grab it!"
"I have also put purchase links for various products on the first floor of the comment section. Grab them while they are hot. This is not an advertisement. I don't know when the promotion will end. I am not responsible for these activities."
The video link below this text is related to "Extreme Survival".
Of course, this extreme survival is different from Lu Ling’s survival in the wild in extreme environments. The “limit” here refers to the economic limit.
How to spend the least money, consume the most food, and spend every night safely is the greatest significance of this "extreme survival".
Unlike those who challenge themselves to live with the least amount of money for 7 or 30 days, since the masters want to normalize this kind of life, they use different methods such as buying instant noodles and vitamins to force themselves to fill their stomachs.
The "industrial waste" under the Kuiguang Group perfectly meets the needs of the great masters.
Not only is it very cheap, it uses real meat, and you can even sell the cans at the scrapyard after eating! For them, this is simply the most perfect food, nothing else!
Yang Ruoqian suppressed his shock while eating. After watching the video, he finally understood why the revenue of the group's theme restaurants continued to rise.
It stands to reason that many restaurants will eventually encounter growth bottlenecks after the novelty wears off, even if they are still doing good business due to good products and affordable prices, and will not continue to rise indefinitely.
After all, there is a limit to the number of customers a restaurant can accommodate.
So this is where the problem lies!
It turns out that it’s not that the restaurant has a different dimension that can accommodate an infinite number of customers, but that some genius has developed a new track! Directly entering the most sinking sinking market! As long as it’s cheap enough, who cares if it’s pre-made?
Consumers just don’t want to buy industrial waste at the price of ordinary vegetables, but that doesn’t mean that industrial waste at 3 yuan per serving won’t trigger the mechanism button of “human weakness”.
Who is the team responsible for operating this group's peripherals?
Yang Ruoqian turned off the software and quickly recalled the relevant things in his mind.
It seems like, it seems like a long time ago, when the Kuiguang Group conducted its first large-scale recruitment, he handed over the related industries to the team recruited that time?
These people actually created such a huge market secretly without my knowledge? !
I just found out about this now? The development of the group is really out of the control of Mr. Yang...
It is predictable what people who originally wanted to order takeout, eat out, or buy instant noodles would think after seeing the relevant news.
College students who are free at the beginning of the month, tight on money in the middle of the month, and have to eat dirt at the end of the month now have a new option to "eat dirt."
There are also some Tuntun rats who are always thinking about how to deal with the end of the world, and they will buy a lot of this cheap, high-calorie, and long-lasting food.
Seeing the popularity, some anchors and review bloggers will follow suit and conduct reviews.
With such a shockingly low price, not only the great gods, not only the provincial party members, but even Yang Ruoqian himself was tempted.
"It's so scary." Yang Ruoqian shook his head violently, shaking off this terrible thought.
Chang Zhiqing ate the snacks with great interest and asked casually, "What's so scary?"
"Human weakness..."
"Speak human language!"
“Things that are extremely cheap always have a terrifying magic that makes people want to buy them.”
“…”
…
While the boss and his wife of the group were wandering around the capital, the crew members of "Wandering Blue Planet 2" far away in Jinhai City were also busy in a specially designed live broadcast studio.
In the room, not only was Director Guo Fan, who was in charge of the review, present, but even Shang Qianyu was present.
Hearing that "Wandering Blue Planet 2" was auditioning actors, Shang Qianyu rushed over to watch the fun right after finishing filming "The Boys' Inspection Team 2".
"Hey, doesn't the boss usually have no dealings with the people over there? Why is he so generous this time?"
Guo Fan didn't look at Shang Qianyu. He watched the video and quickly recorded it in his notebook, while casually replying: "These students did nothing wrong... This is what I admire most about Mr. Yang. He is really willing to take out resources unconditionally and give them to those who need them and have the ability to use them."
"Xiao Shang, please stand further away. Look how many people have affected the screening process because they saw you mumbling."
The live broadcast is two-way. The examiners in the crew can see the students, and the students can also see the scenes in the live broadcast room on the big screen.
Shang Qianyu's experience is no longer a secret, and has been written into the inspirational diaries of countless people.
At this time, the real person is right in front of you, so he will naturally attract a lot of attention.
"Oh, okay..." Shang Qianyu, who did not have the qualifications to be an examiner and could only enter the non-core confidential area of the set, sighed and squatted in the corner dejectedly.
Alas, thinking back to the time when I was the leading actor, I could go wherever I wanted on the set.
Just between the two groups of students' auditions, Director Guo Fan's cell phone on the table rang.
"Xiao Shang, please help me get my phone."
Without unlocking the screen, phone messages cannot be seen, and Guo Fan is not worried that Shang Qianyu will see anything.
The unhappy Shang Qianyu immediately jumped up and took the phone over: "Director Guo, the phone!"
Guo Fan glanced at his phone and saw the two big words "Lao Liu" written on it.
Lao Liu is the mentor Liu who had actively contacted Kuiguang Group before.
"Why is there another call?" (End of this chapter)
