Chapter 414 The Second Crisis



【Ding!】

【Task: The crisis of the noodle shop has not been resolved yet, and it will face more severe tests. You need to restore the monthly revenue of the noodle shop to its peak within six months, and the profit should not be lower than the (monthly) average of five years.】

【Reward: 500,000 redemption points, boutique gift pack (×1)】

【Punishment: If you fail to complete the task within the specified time limit, you will not be able to get any rewards within one year.】

Du Shaojie made a lot of attempts in the simulated scene and finally finalized several new varieties.

These snacks (dishes) taste quite good, but whether they can be recognized by consumers still needs to be verified in reality.

When he returned to reality, he suddenly heard a reminder sound in his ear, and the long-awaited task release came unexpectedly.

"The task release is also quite organized, keeping up with the current situation."

Du Shaojie checked the task and was amused.

In fact, he didn't care about [Northwest Noodle House] as much as he seemed on the surface. He even thought that if the noodle shop didn't make much progress, he would gradually close the stores.

To be honest, the technical barriers of noodle shops are not that strong. They are far inferior to those of restaurants like Xichuan Restaurant, and may not even be as good as those of hot pot restaurants.

One of the important factors in establishing this brand at that time was Su Dapeng, but since the other party could not do it well, it would be closed. After all, Su Dapeng was still the vice president of the company and would not be idle.

But the task came at the right time, forcing him to get the Northwest Noodle House back on track.

The next day.

Du Shaojie went to the (Yangcheng) store of the Northwest Noodle House again, where some new varieties he studied would be piloted.

He had already called Meng Gang about this matter, and Meng Gang would inform Su Dapeng.

"Hello, boss!"

"Well, Manager Huang, we will temporarily change the varieties today. Go and call the chef over."

When he arrived at the store, Du Shaojie assigned tasks to the manager and the chef. The first thing was to replace some unsalable varieties and add a few new varieties. Secondly, the ingredients that were not available should be purchased immediately, so as not to delay the business at noon.

The relevant personnel of the store immediately moved and soon made preparations.

"I will make the new dishes today, and you can learn from them. You will be the ones to cook in a few days."

It's not complicated. For chefs with solid basic skills, they can basically learn it at a glance. It's just that someone needs to pass on experience for seasoning so that they don't have to figure it out.

At lunchtime, customers came into the store one after another.

According to Du Shaojie's request, the store staff took the initiative to introduce new dishes to customers, and asked them to spend a few minutes filling out a questionnaire when they finished their meals.

Customers who clicked on the questionnaire can get a 12% discount on their consumption.

In the evening, the customers' feedback came to Luo Qin, who gave it to Du Shaojie after statistics and sorting.

"Mr. Du, I'll go back first."

Luo Qin finished her work and prepared to go back to sleep.

She still lives in the training center, which is about 20 minutes' drive from the old street, not far or close.

Du Shaojie looked at his watch. It was almost 11 o'clock in the evening.

"It's a bit late today, so don't go back. The third floor is my residence, and there are two vacant guest rooms on the second floor. You can pick one of them."

Luo Qin has been doing very well at work for so long, and Du Shaojie has seen it.

When he can provide convenience to his subordinates, he will naturally provide convenience.

"Thank you, Mr. Du!"

Luo Qin didn't feel uncomfortable at all. She was the boss's confidant, and she followed the boss wherever he went. It was normal that she couldn't go back when it was late.

She then followed Du Shaojie to the second floor and picked an empty room at random.

The room was clean and there was not even a hint of mold. It must be cleaned every day. The bedding and other bedding were all new, and there was a full set of toiletries.

Du Shaojie took the statistical feedback summary and returned to his room.

"Well, the overall feedback is not bad, but we need to wait for a while."

The performance of the new variety on the first day was very good, and customers gave it a high evaluation.

However, the time period of this statistical data is too short to explain anything. The entire period should be extended to about half a month, and such statistical data will be meaningful.

Before going to bed.

Du Shaojie entered the simulation scene. He needed to make some minor adjustments based on customer feedback, striving to do better.

When he woke up, he didn't see Luo Qin. When he asked Wang Yongli, he found out that she had gone back to change clothes. She was afraid that she would miss the trip to accompany the boss, so she asked Zou Xiaohe to drive her there.

The secretary and Wang Yongli had no work interactions, but they often accompanied the boss, so they were familiar with each other and got along well.

"Ignore them, let's eat first."

Wang Yongli went out to buy breakfast, including [crab roe buns], [rice rolls] and [soy milk]. When they were halfway through their meal, Luo Qin and Zou Xiaohe came back.

"Luo Qin, Xiaohe, come and eat."

Luo Qin packed a suitcase with clothes and other items in it. If they lived here in the future, they would not have to run back and forth.

After everyone finished eating and packed up, Du Shaojie went to [Northwest Noodle House] again.

Today's new varieties have some minor adjustments, and he had to explain them to the chefs from the beginning, and he personally made those new snacks (dishes).

Half a month passed in a flash, and the new varieties developed by Du Shaojie were a great success.

In order to promote these varieties as soon as possible, he then held a study class at the training center and conducted a week-long training for the staff sent by each store.

"I will issue the operating procedures and specifications to everyone in a while. You can take them back and make them according to this standard in the future."

Du Shaojie asked Luo Qin to distribute the printed process specifications to everyone, and then this training session ended.

These days, his consumption has risen sharply. Although it is only seven days, due to the opening of the "Gold Medal Lecturer" title, he has consumed 1.4 million hours.

Adding his previous consumption in the simulation scene, the total consumption has reached 2 million hours.

[Exchange points: 169918 points\4323066 points]

[Duration: 12.84 million hours\76613000 hours]

One month later.

All stores of [Northwest Noodle House] have completed the adjustment of the variety structure, and the turnover is constantly recovering.

Su Dapeng has completely put down his worries. He thinks this time should be stable. As long as the internal management is well managed, [Northwest Noodle House] will return to the peak in no time.

Du Shaojie is still wondering. The task says that the crisis of the noodle house is far from being resolved. It seems to be quite serious, but it is actually not difficult to turn the situation around.

Unfortunately, the two people are too happy too early.

This morning, Du Shaojie received a call from Su Dapeng. It can be heard that the other party's tone is a little anxious.

His heart skipped a beat at that time. What was supposed to come finally came.

The incident started in Shanghai. The knockoff version of [Northwest Noodle House] was opened openly near the original one. Not only did the knockoff version sell the same products as [Northwest Noodle House], but the decoration style was also very similar.

But it was obvious that the investment in the knockoff version was much smaller. The decoration materials looked similar at first glance, but in fact they were all cheap. As for the ingredients used in the snacks (dishes), they were not very good, but the prices were also very cheap.

Really, sometimes cheap prices are justice. Under the premise that the other party's food is not bad, many people flock to it.

As a result, the [Northwest Noodle House] Shanghai store, which had just started to improve, was pointed at the head with a bayonet.

"Damn it, that guy is so hateful. This is the first time I have seen such an arrogant knockoff store. You said you were imitating us, but you dared to fight us face to face."

Su Dapeng was furious and wanted to catch the owner of the knockoff store and beat him up.

But in fact, he knew very well that he could not do anything to the other party. The other party just looks very similar to [Northwest Noodle House], but it seems difficult to determine if they are suing for infringement.

The snacks (dishes) are similar, which is not illegal, and I have never heard of patents for this thing.

In short, the catering industry is one of the earliest industries to enter full competition after the reform and opening up, but Su Dapeng felt the cruelty of close combat for the first time.

"Dapeng, I have a hunch that what happened in the Magic City store may not be an isolated existence. Maybe they will have follow-up actions. Fortunately, we have completed the adjustment, otherwise the other party will be able to cripple [Northwest Noodle House] in one fell swoop."

Du Shaojie felt helpless. The system really would not lie. If it said that the crisis had not been resolved, it really had not been resolved.

Before, it was just a change in the overall environment. As long as you can actively adapt, generally speaking, there is no big problem. But this time is different. Obviously, someone has set their sights on [Northwest Noodle House] and intends to use "Li Gui" to kill "Li Kui".

This is not a sudden idea. The other party must have a thorough plan.

"What should we do then?"

Su Dapeng was a little flustered, mainly because of anger.

The main thing is that he has no way to deal with the copycat noodle shop. When Li Kui meets Li Gui, the result is that Li Kui has no words to say. Where can he go to reason?

"Wait! Our only way now is to wait. When the other party has played all the cards in his hand, we will consider how to fight back. Dapeng, you have to work hard during this period and continue to inspect the stores in various places. I will go to the Magic City."

Du Shaojie dated Su Dapeng to keep calm and respond to changes with the same attitude.

Su Dapeng responded and then hung up the phone.

Later, Meng Gang also called. Du Shaojie asked the other party not to be anxious, to sit in the headquarters honestly, and to keep the company's basic base.

The company's basic base is [Xichuan Restaurant], [Seafood House], [Xiangweiju] and [Shuweixiang Old Hot Pot], especially [Xichuan Restaurant]. As long as there is no problem with this brand, there is nothing to fear.

Du Shaojie left as soon as he said he would. The next day, he took Wang Yongli, Luo Qin and others to the Magic City by plane.

After getting off the plane, the company sent someone to deliver his car. After the two cars left the airport, they headed straight to the [Northwest Noodle House] Shanghai branch.

When Du Shaojie arrived, he saw the knockoff version of [Northwest Noodle House] at a glance. It was very close to the original store, and the straight-line distance was no more than 50 meters. (End of this chapter)
