Chapter 1209 K0 Planet, a City of Tourism and Cuisine
"Friend, have you heard of the New Star Gourmet Training School?"
"Friend, have you ever heard of a chef who holds a diploma from the New Star Gourmet Training School?"
"It took two years to build this culinary team, personally led by Jiang Jiujiu, the light of ancient Earth cuisine. Are you interested in learning more?"
"We will be holding an online food conference on the 14th of this month. With an invitation code, you can enter the food conference and enjoy thousands of delicious foods~"
The handsome robot butler is using a very magnetic voice to recommend the upcoming food festival to the girls walking on the street.
On another street, a tall, slender, goddess-like robot with a smile as pleasant as a spring breeze stood beside a screen and explained to the crowd, "On the 15th of next month, which is the Qixi Festival on ancient Earth, our planet Ki will officially open~"
"Ladies, would you like to spend a wonderful time with your loved ones on Chinese Valentine's Day?"
"Gentlemen, would you like to prepare a surprise for your loved ones at home?"
As she spoke, the pattern on the screen suddenly changed, quickly transforming from a rising star logo into a pink sky, white clouds, and endless pink grass.
A quick bird's-eye view captured the beautiful scene of Planet K. Soon, a man wearing a straw hat and overalls began running across the screen.
Then came the flash mob. The video included a flowing banquet, an antique street with countless delicious food shops on the street, a huge, retro scene to explore, and night market stalls connected by stars in the dark night.
There is a bustle, fireworks, and a variety of activities and food and drink options.
It's very interesting at first glance.
As more and more people gathered around, the goddess robot smiled slightly. "It took three years and a huge amount of money to build. Our planet Ki boasts magnificent ancient Earth architecture, restored street scenes and food from ancient Earth, and incorporates many novel elements~"
"Alright, alright! No need for introductions, let's talk about how to sign up first!"
“Yes, yes, yes!”
Who doesn't come here to go shopping? If you fail to go shopping, you won't stay here just to listen to people talking!
Everyone is very curious about the planet that Jiang Qiuqiu decided to develop in 5360!
"The planet will be open on the 15th of next month. We will update the registration link on our Star Network homepage starting on the 15th of this month. Please stay tuned~"
Still waiting?!
The onlookers gradually dispersed, but those who had not heard it yet came to listen again.
At the same time, similar things happened in many corners of the Federal Social Republic.
It is the autumn of 5363. Xinxing has become the undisputed leader in the live broadcast industry, one of the most prominent private enterprises in the Federal Republic, and a major taxpayer for the entire country.
Of course, it also has some aliases, such as [The First Sauce Factory in the Federation], [The Reserve Company of Event Chefs], [The Unfilial Son Who Doesn't Do Live Broadcasting But Travels], [The Broken Company That Stole the Top Anchor to Be the Boss], etc.
Of course, these are nicknames given by users.
In the eyes of insiders, Xinxing Company is definitely a rare cash flow company.
The star coins they have in circulation...that is definitely a huge amount.
To sum up, he is really rich, extremely rich.
Of course, being rich also means spending money.
It's really burning. The speed at which money is spent is faster than throwing it into fire.
-
After the board of directors discussed it, the plan was finalized.
Then, after Qiuqiu, as the company's vice president, formally submitted the proposal to the Federation and received a response, people in the market soon learned that Xinxing had applied for the right to use a planet?!
A planet!
And promised to at least drive up the KPIs of all the planets in the K series.
Ah this?
this?
It is almost unheard of for a businessman to transform the planet.
What's more, this businessman has no experience.
So even though the K0 Planet proposal had traffic and attracted attention during that period, everyone was still pessimistic about it.
It would cost too much money to build a desolate planet. How could I ever get that much money back?
This pessimistic tone has continued to this day, three years later.
Although it was a hot search, the six people who were linked to it were all Jiang Qiuqiu·ki planet.
Although the holographic food tasting conference was well received.
Although the ranking forecast for the 15th was huge and overcrowded.
But people in the business circle are still not optimistic about this case.
-
The federation held a small-scale political and business gathering on July 17.
Most of the people who come here are entrepreneurs or young politicians who have built their careers after the new era.
They often get together in small groups to exchange information.
Young politicians will learn from entrepreneurs about the latest people's livelihood, labor force mobility, economic development, etc.
Entrepreneurs hope to hear some new policies from politicians. In this rapidly changing era, knowing how the ship will move will undoubtedly provide great support for future development.
But when we get together today, the topic is different from the past.
Everyone was talking about Jiang Qiuqiu.
"Didn't they disclose the data? They said the number of reservations has exceeded 100 million."
Don't underestimate the 100 million figure.
First of all, Planet Ki is officially open on August 15th, and the 15th is a working day, so office workers definitely can’t go there.
And you can play for seven days at a time. Unless you are a retiree, a student, or a heavy hitter, who can take seven days off from work on weekdays?
This reservation already has great restrictions, and the cost of traveling there is really not low.
Despite all the constraints, it is already a very strong achievement that over 100 million people signed up.
This has exceeded the predictions of some entrepreneurs in the alliance.
"But even so, I'm not optimistic about this project," an entrepreneur said. "Even though the money we'll get is much better than our small company's turnover."
“It’s almost unimaginable, but the initial investment is something we can’t even imagine.”
"This is her first time selling. Jiang Qiuqiu already has a lot of enthusiastic fans on Starnet, so the first round's results don't count."
"Tourism relies on holidays. Business there will only be good when there are holidays, but when everyone is on holiday, there is not enough space for so many people."
With this in mind, "Plus, Planet Ki isn't close to us, we can't go there even for a short vacation, and the staff can't be dispersed. A project like this..."
“It’s impossible to recover all the investment!”
This man was extremely decisive.
Someone working there also nodded. He had the good fortune to have heard about the plan Jiang Qiuqiu had submitted. The funding involved...
Long, long, long numbers.
"It will take at least 20 years to recoup that money."
Because running this planet also costs money.
"Yeah, I think it takes that long too."
"I really don't understand why they would spend so much money on this?" someone wondered. "Three years of their time was wasted. I heard she can make money from live streaming. She might as well just do it."
"Otherwise, according to Mr. Jiang's qualifications, it would be a good idea to open a sanatorium and build up some connections."
The strong ones make connections, and every one of them is good.
“Or you can open a chain restaurant.”
"I think based on her level, she can just take this piece of cake. There won't be any strong enemies."
What everyone said makes sense.
There are so many ways to make money. I really don't know why Jiang Qiuqiu went through so much trouble and ended up burning money and losing money.
"So, young people still can't hold too much power."
"Sometimes, having other talents doesn't mean you have a talent for business," one person said. "I feel like before her, Qian Xingxing ran the company pretty well."
Every move is right.
The branch companies established in the early stage also became the backbone of the company.
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's talk about something else."
"Let's see if there are any new opportunities that can make everyone fly."
The home field is back in the hands of young politicians.
The party ended with doubts. One of the politicians drove a mecha to the Nova Building.
-
When Jones got down to the top floor of the Nova Building, everyone was busy.
This is already Ki's exclusive office.
After the appointments started, Qiuqiu mobilized an entire team and hundreds of AIs to record and schedule everyone's appointments.
In addition to the appointment group, there are also the publicity group, the business development group, and the secretarial group.
When the secretarial team saw Jones, they immediately came forward and asked, "Sir, are you here to see Miss Wan?"
"Well, where is she?"
"Wanjie is in a meeting with President Jiang. Would it be convenient for you to wait in the small conference room?"
"Okay." Jones nodded and walked straight to the meeting room. His brown hair seemed to shine under the light of the office.
After he left, people in the office talked for a while, but only for a short while.
[So handsome.]
[Ahhh, is it popular among executives in our company to find handsome guys as boyfriends? ]
[A gentleman with glasses and a handsome guy, our sister is so lucky! ]
…
After Qiuqiu, Wanxing and several team leaders had a party, they heard the secretary say Jones was coming, and they immediately rushed to the small conference room.
"Don't be so polite." Jones stood up. "It's not a big deal today."
"Let's learn about the specific situation of Planet Ki."
Wanxing immediately reported the company's data.
Jones noted, "That's pretty good."
"Of course." After becoming the manager, Wan Xing's momentum grew day by day. "We can definitely achieve our goals."
Jones looked at her again, the corners of his mouth rising slightly.
"If we can stabilize the traffic peak according to the table you submitted earlier and get visitors, Planet Ki should be able to make a profit."
"Yes." Qiuqiu nodded, "Maybe more than expected."
If the group of entrepreneurs who held the symposium this morning heard what Qiuqiu said, they would definitely be stunned.
What kind of conversation is this?
What does it mean to be profitable?
Did you think you couldn’t make a profit before?
Why are you doing this when you can't make a profit? It's incomprehensible!
After finishing the business, Jones stayed a little longer to ease the atmosphere and talked about the topic of the morning.
In Jones's opinion, Jiang Qiuqiu and those people in the morning were no longer on the same level.
They may have analytical skills, a keen eye for numbers, and be very accurate in estimating costs.
Is a natural businessman.
But their vision cannot compare to Jiang Qiuqiu's.
In fact, from the formal submission of the proposal to the subsequent training and continuous increase in the budget, Xinxing has long known that the investment in Ki Planet will be huge.
Moreover, everyone has anticipated that due to the various difficulties and restrictions on travel, including multiple restrictions, it may take 20 years to recover the investment costs.
But Xinxing did it anyway, and all shareholders agreed and passed it. Why?
"Everyone guessed pretty well." Qiuqiu brushed the hair that had accidentally fallen on her shoulders back, "But sometimes doing business isn't just about making star coins."
Yes, it’s because of this sentence.
This project is connected with the country.
Although Xinxing is a private enterprise, it is linked to the state!
Because the most central point of the entire KI development project is to revitalize the residents of the K series planets.
It is to give people on the K series planets a job and put their funds into circulation.
It is for the billions of poor people on the desolate planet.
“Rising Star is truly different from many other businesses.”
"Boss Jiang, do you need us to assign people to maintain order starting on the 15th of next month?"
"Yes." He was unwilling to refuse. "But if you can borrow some people, it's best if they don't wear work clothes."
"Can we all wear our uniforms? It would be a shame to have too many military or police officers standing around on a tourist planet."
"Sure, we all understand this." Jones agreed immediately.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Jones, for your concern for our work today. The KI is about to open. Wanxing, I will also give Mr. Jones a few tickets. Sir, you can come and play and experience it together when the time comes."
He is not someone who is too sophisticated to be appreciated by the masses, and he understands the ways of the world.
It was just a small thing, and Jones didn't refuse such a kind offer.
After he left, Qiuqiu clicked her tongue a few times at Wanxing.
"Xiao Wan, it looks like the wish you made at the last party might be coming true."
Wan Xing blushed a little, "Mr. Jiang, please stop teasing me."
"He's not teasing you at all. You can tell by the look on his face when he looks at you." Qiuqiu sighed, "The love in his eyes can't be hidden at all."
"...Qiuqiu, is this something that comes from a feeling?"
"What? You're teasing me too?" Qiuqiu pointed at herself in surprise, "But I'm not afraid of teasing anymore."
“It really came from my heart.”
Over the years, the relationship between her and Mo Si has not faded with time.
On the contrary, it becomes more lively because of the precipitation.
Whenever they looked into each other's eyes, there was a raging fire and a love that was hard to conceal.
“…”
The single guy lost to the couple of years.
It was past 8 o'clock. Qiuqiu packed up and prepared to go home. After waiting in the office for a while, the terminal beeped twice. She looked up at Wanxing outside and said, "Xiaowan, it's time to get off work. You should go home soon too."
"Do you have an appointment tonight? If so, I won't tell you. If not, I'll let Mo Si take you home."
"Qiuqiu, wait a moment, I'll ask." After work, the name is no longer unfamiliar.
"You and Brother Mo, please take me with you."
"The appointment was cancelled?"
"Ah." Wanxing nodded, "They are working overtime."
"It seems the Development Department is also busy lately."
Evening Star did not explain.
It seems that it is him.
-
The windbreaker fluttered, creating a neat arc.
Qiuqiu opened the door of the hover car, sat in the passenger seat, and made eye contact with Mo Si. She smiled, and Mo Si raised his eyebrows in tacit understanding.
Without saying a word, the lovers had completed their communication.
This is what the evening star saw when it came up.
To be honest, she never wanted to be in a relationship.
Because in this long life, the love between his parents was not stable and lasting, which made Wanxing feel that... love is just like that.
But in recent years, I have seen too much interaction and dialogue between Mo Si and Qiu Qiu.
She was unconsciously attracted, looking forward to it, and hoped that she could have such a relationship.
To be supported, understood, cared for and loved.
