Chapter 53 Restaurant Operation



Li Yaolin did not expect that the pre-sale of boat tickets and tickets for the seven-day National Day was almost sold out in less than half a day after the mini program was released. Among them, there was no online ticket left for the second and third days of the National Day. A large number of netizens began to clamor for Xingzhou Island to open the reservation function for guest rooms and camping areas for the seven days of the National Day.

Peng Shaoyi said to Li Yaolin: "Fortunately, 30% of the tickets were reserved for offline sales, otherwise I was really worried that those tourists who bought tickets on site would not be able to buy tickets and complain to us again."

Li Yaolin said: "This is also good. From these pre-sale tickets, we can predict the number of tourists during the National Day, so we can formulate various emergency plans."

However, the speed at which the tickets were sold out made her feel a little strange. According to the system's data analysis, these tourists came from all over the world. Suddenly, there were so many tourists from all over the country. Something must have happened.

Later, Manager Qi gave her feedback, and she realized that it was the effect of the science blogger's live broadcast. When his live broadcast reached its peak, 300,000 people were watching online at the same time. This peak occurred during the one and a half hours when he went to eat seafood buffet at noon.

After that, Xingzhou Island made the headlines again.

#Xingzhou Island Seafood Buffet Restaurant Opens, Chef Appears, Stunning Everyone! #

#How Good Are the Dishes Cooked by Robots? #

#The Chef of Xingzhou Island Restaurant is an Intelligent Robot! #Xingzhou

Island has appeared frequently on the headlines of major news media these days, and netizens have long felt that it is not new, and even think that the other party's marketing is too much, and they are ready to "turn the tables". But seeing this explosive title, they still clicked in involuntarily, and then they were shown off by the robots in the seafood buffet restaurant.

The video was edited from a live broadcast of a popular science blogger. The popular science blogger was walking around the food section, introducing the seafood in the restaurant, when a 1.2-meter-tall, snow-white, high-tech robot appeared in his sight.

The popular science blogger thought it was just a robot similar to the customer service robot in the bank lobby, so he didn't take it seriously. But when the robot stretched out eight thin and long mechanical arms, like a mechanical spider, he was stunned.

The audience in the live broadcast room also paused for half a second and shouted "WTF!"

One arm of the robot reached into the fish tank and caught a still-alive grouper. The second arm held a knife, the third arm wiped the cooking knife with a clean towel, the fourth arm used a scaler to scale the fish, and the other four arms were cooking teppanyaki squid, sea bream sashimi, etc.

What shocked everyone even more was that another robot came behind. Under its supervision, the robots that finished cooking would obediently disinfect and clean their robotic hands.

There were many people watching here like the popular science blogger. Lin Qitong explained, "This is one of the chefs in our restaurant. It's called 'Hao Delicious'. It's a top chef in the robot world. The dishes it makes are very delicious and people can't stop praising it."

As she said this, she swallowed subconsciously, thinking of the breakfast she had last time.

Her reaction was so real that the science blogger believed it, and the audience also believed it to some extent.

"Also, this is our monitoring robot 'Hao Anquan'. It is responsible for supervising the food safety and hygiene of the kitchen. If the chef does not pay attention to hygiene, it will warn him. Dishes that do not meet the food safety and hygiene standards will be treated as failures by it."

Lin Qitong continued, "There is also a cooking robot 'Hao Diligent'. It is responsible for handling most of the seafood here. With them, our efficiency in handling seafood has been greatly improved."

Although everyone is very curious about the origin, structure and procedures of the robots, Lin Qitong is unwilling to reveal any of the secrets of Xingzhou Island.

The science blogger thought this was a trade secret and wisely stopped asking.

There are precedents of robots cooking in the catering industry. Although people find this new, they don’t find it magical. The only thing that people are concerned about is whether the rice cooked by the robot is really delicious.

In order to verify the cooking skills of the robot, the science blogger specially ordered some dishes that needed to be processed by the robot.

Lin Qitong reminded him: "We prohibit waste here. If you can't finish the food, you can buy it at the market price. But if you don't want to buy but want to waste, you will be blacklisted."

The science blogger hadn't said anything yet, and the hater who came over after smelling the smell posted a barrage of comments: "Spended 318 yuan and get this service? Blacklist warnings every day, if this is not a threat, what is it? An island like this, just seeing the name makes me disgusted!" When

the science blogger saw this barrage, he immediately said seriously: "I strongly agree with what Xingzhou Island does. It is common sense to take as much as you eat. And when we entered the island, we saw the blacklist on the LED display at the door. They deserved to be blacklisted.

"Destroying the ecological environment, stealing on the island, fighting, and even urinating and defecating everywhere, these are not only uncivilized behaviors, some of them are also suspected of being illegal! If this situation is not curbed and a warning is not set, how can other tourists play on the island safely and securely?

"Along the way, we can see that there are many tourists who come to travel alone. They just put some gifts that cannot be put into the lockers on the beach and go to the sea happily. Are they stupid? Obviously not, because they know that their things will not be stolen even if no one is watching.

"This will bring up a new question. Why doesn't anyone steal things here? Are all tourists of very high quality? No.

"The only thing we can be sure of is that if you steal here, Xingzhou Island will always find a way to catch you, and the evidence is solid. When the time comes, they will directly hand you over to the police. Being on the blacklist is nothing, but having a criminal record is what you will regret!

" Although I don't know how it is done, I have to say that Xingzhou Island can give tourists a sense of security. When people go out to travel, many scenic spots will remind tourists to keep an eye on their belongings. Therefore, tourists are always not satisfied during the trip. They have to guard against others stealing their things and guard against others' personal injury. But Xingzhou Island is different. There are many tourists who come here alone. They don't have to worry about suffering property losses and being unable to recover them. They can get complete relaxation here. "

After the science blogger finished speaking, he realized belatedly that he had just identified with Xingzhou Island. Didn't he come here to explore the truth about the glow of the seabed? Are these words too embarrassing?

He didn't care, because as a science blogger, he must be objective about things and people. If it is proved that his previous judgment was wrong, he will never distort the truth for the sake of face.

Lin Qitong did not interrupt, but said after he finished speaking: "It will lose its original deliciousness when it gets cold, try it quickly! "

The science blogger chose a seat at the rotating hot pot and sat down to taste the dishes he had chosen.

Although the waiters served the dishes very quickly, the seafood at the rotating hot pot was always quickly snatched up. Seeing the tourists wolfing down their food, the science blogger almost thought that they were from areas where seafood was rarely available.

When he started eating, he understood the tourists.

The seafood was so delicious that he thought it was worth it even if it was 418 yuan, not to mention 318 yuan per person!

He quietly pointed the camera at the plate with ice cubes next to him and whispered, "See, this guy ate five servings of red sea bream sashimi. I tell you, I've eaten red sea bream sashimi in Japanese restaurants before, and I thought it was delicious, but I didn't expect the red sea bream sashimi here to be the best. Compared to Japanese restaurants that cost thousands of yuan, this is really a good deal."

The tourist next to him burped. Although he wanted to eat more, he was already very full. If he ate more, his stomach would be stretched.

After the waiter took away the extra plates, the science blogger realized that the tourist was also a live streamer. He was holding his phone and talking about his experience: "After this meal, I can only say that this seafood buffet is very sincere. You can see that the seafood varieties we have eaten all the way seem to be few, but they are all very fresh and very large!"

The science blogger thought, isn't it? Although he just focused on the robot, he also saw the seafood in the food area.

There are processed seafood here, such as red sea bream sashimi, conch slices, shelled mussels, oysters, jellyfish, and some are still alive, such as shrimps, crabs, clams, clams, etc., which look very fresh.

The small blue crabs weigh 500 grams, and the big ones weigh more than 1 jin. Those who know how to choose can pick the female crabs with full roe. After eating one, they want to eat the second one.

It is said that eating four or five crabs can make back the money, but no one will really eat only blue crabs after coming here, so they will try other things and get full soon.

These seafood are big, and it sounds like you don’t eat much, but in fact, for diners, it is not a loss to spend 318 yuan to eat such delicious seafood.

The popular science blogger even began to worry that the store would make a loss.

...

It is impossible to lose money.

Blue crabs and red sea bream sashimi are basically limited. In order to ensure that later tourists have the opportunity to eat them, they will be replenished once in the middle of the meal time. If you come late, you can only eat other seafood.

After lunch, according to preliminary statistics from the hotel management, more than 500 tourists were not deterred by the price and chose to try the new food, so the half-day turnover was nearly NT$160,000. Excluding the costs of food, labor, water and electricity, and restaurant operations, the profit was about NT$40,000.

Li Yaolin asked, "How are the reviews?"

"Except for a few who complained about the lack of ingredients and that they came late and didn't get to eat sea bream sashimi and crab, the rest of the diners gave very good feedback. Mr. Li, you asked people to prepare feedback cards, but only more than 200 diners gave reviews. Among them, 127 gave five-star reviews, and the rest all gave four and a half stars. They said that the variety of seafood was a bit limited, so they couldn't give it full stars."

Li Yaolin took a look at the buffet restaurant reviews on the system, and the number did match, which showed that Li Yaolin's method of obtaining good reviews through physical means worked, but the premise was that there could be no guidance, such as promises of cash back or discounts in order to get diners to give good reviews.

【Seafood Buffet Restaurant (1 star)】

Five-star rating: 127/1000

Operating cost: 5,000 yuan/day

Only one-fifth of the people gave five-star ratings, and it seems that this rating is really hard to get.

How about she buys from other channels and replenishes more seafood ingredients? But in this way, it is difficult for her to ensure the freshness of the seafood. If it is not fresh, it will lead to a decline in reputation...

After thinking about it, Li Yaolin finally gave up this idea. Five-star ratings are hard to get, which shows that the rating is of high gold content. As long as the rating is not lowered due to seafood quality issues, it is acceptable.

After discussing the seafood buffet restaurant, Li Yaolin asked, "What about the camping area?" "

The daytime booking of camping sites is not very ideal. There are more people booking for the evening. Currently, there are two reservations in the large camping area, four in the medium camping area, and half in the small camping area."

Li Yaolin was very optimistic: "There are a total of 50 camping sites. On the opening day, 20 were rented out, which is not bad."

She felt that it was time to release the "sea fire" as a benefit for the first batch of tourists who stayed overnight on Xingzhou Island!

So, when the first batch of tourists who stayed in the holiday cabins were feeling that they could finally enjoy the night breeze on Xingzhou Island while walking with their loved ones/friends/family and enjoying a leisurely holiday, the fluorescent light that suddenly appeared on the originally dark sea surface slowly attracted their attention.

The little dots of fluorescent light gradually became brighter, just like the stars in the night sky being reflected on the sea surface, and finally burst into the brilliant colors of the nebula in the vast universe. The tourists felt as if they had witnessed the birth of the universe and were shocked.

However, considering the sea erosion phenomenon, the glowing seabed, the massage beach, and the stars that can't be seen on the other side of the island but can be seen on the island, the tourists actually thought it was not strange that this scene would appear on Xingzhou Island.
