Chapter 21: Huang Xin's Bizarre Journey (2)

On May 1st, Wang Aili invested in
beyond
Internet cafes, and now called the computer room to open, just in the west section of Youth Street, where the city's Education Commission, a high school, hospital and other cultural industries are concentrated. I invested about 300,000 this time, purchased a dilapidated two-story building, and started renovations in March. I invited a professor from the computer department of Liaoyang University to buy 40 spare parts of the computer in Zhongguancun, the capital, and came back to myself. Assembly and commissioning. It is easy to apply for a license for an Internet cafe. After assembling twenty units in advance, it opened on May 1st. Song Lao Liu has been following before and after running, although he does not understand anything, but his attitude is sincere. Many advertisements were issued before the opening, and the name was computer training. Of course, if you want to learn computer, there is no one to stop, no problem to practice typing, office software is available. But you have to be able to withstand the temptations of a series of games such as Red Police 98, Age of Empires, Emperor and so on. In fact, no one can carry it, no matter what the name is, it ends up being a game player.
Internet cafes became extremely popular after opening. This is the city's first formal large-scale online entertainment venue. Although not connected to the Internet, LANs do exist. The four waiters are tired enough in two shifts. While teaching customers how to play games, they also sell snacks such as drinks, cigarettes, instant noodles, and mustard, and sometimes they have to deal with simple computer failures.
Of course, the second floor does not sell cigarettes and is also non-smoking. Wang Ai intends to gradually upgrade from a junior Internet cafe to a high-end online club to attract high-end consumer customers. Therefore, areas have been divided from the beginning: smoking and non-smoking areas. The second floor is for non-smokers, especially high-end people and female customers. It is just the early days of the development of Internet cafes. The crowd has not been completely divided. After the market segmentation for one or two months of opening, the Internet cafes will be opened. Differentiate, gradually phase out the low end, and firmly control the middle and high end. By that time, Internet cafes will be mainly in the form of private rooms, with an area of ​​more than 400 square meters. The smoking area has a dedicated smoking games room and a large exhaust fan. All other areas are non-smoking. The goods sold will gradually transition from instant noodles to takeaways and steaks; beverages will transition from bottled tea to freshly brewed tea and coffee. Even cigarettes need to transition to high-end types such as cigars.
In other words, Wang Ai intends to cultivate market and customer classification needs in two months, and then gradually expand the city's fixed-point expansion, setting up four to five large-scale comprehensive stores in the city center, business district, cultural district, etc., and then in the city's urban area. With seven or eight ordinary Internet cafes. Since the usage habits of the first batch of Internet cafe users were cultivated beyond Internet cafes, they will have super loyalty to the brand that surpasses Internet Cafes. As long as they don't die, this is a cash cow of Manli. As for the scattered urban areas, suburbs, and even rural markets where computer rooms opened in residential buildings without a license, Wang Ai threw them away to newcomers.
After opening, Wang Ai didn't go there. It wasn't that he wanted to play computer by himself, but he didn't have professional management staff. As the city's first such a large-scale, not only the technology, but also the lack of talents in management, so Wang Ai I had to sacrifice a part of the time after dinner and rushed to the Internet cafe to save the field. Song Laoliu can calm down the monsters and monsters, but he is helpless against the computer.
In this way, Huang Xin who came with him first encountered Wang Ai's enterprises. As a result, he was taken aback.
It turned out that the whispering and surpassing Internet cafes spread among the students turned out to be opened by little kids! Dozens of microcomputers have a clear order, and the screen is flashing with flowers and greens, and there are occasionally people shouting in excitement. It is not uncommon for people around to stretch their necks to peek at the screen, especially the red police and empire of the battle. atmosphere. On the second floor, there is a lot of girls, and there are obviously civil servants who are familiar with keyboard typing according to typing software, and some girls simply wear headphones to listen to songs and watch movies.
The waiter on the second floor couldn't figure out what this playful girl who was still talking to the little boss about when he entered the door. The little boss was busy on the first floor and simply invited Huang Xin to play for a while. Huang Xin was exposed to microcomputers at school, but the school only has typing software, keyboard practice software, and some office software. Games are absolutely absent. That belongs to the privilege of the computer teacher. God is secretly hidden in a folder that does not know which "learning materials". Therefore, Huang Xin was involuntarily attracted to the game. After playing round after round, when I felt thirsty, I found out that Wang Ai was smiling and staring at herself for a long time. Standing up in a hurry, the wall clock on the wall showed eight thirty.
At the door of the second floor, Wang Ai suddenly said to the waiter who followed him: "Sheismywife, shewillcometoplaycasually, buttherboyfriendcan" t .. (she is my wife-in-law, she will come here to play casually, but her boyfriend will not). "
Because Huang Xin and Wang Ai had said in a chat, her boyfriend's mind was not right, so Wang Ai teased Huang Xin about this topic. Seeing the waiter's aggressive face, Wang Aigang opened his mouth to laugh, and was pinched by Huang Xin.
At this time, a weak voice next to him said: "ThebosstoldmethatthereisnoproblewwwButsheisyourwife, Isn" thertherfriendyou? (The boss orders, of course, no problem. But she is your wife, isn't her boyfriend you?) "
Wang Ai turned around, I'll go! The waiter actually speaks English and is so fluent! Where did you graduate and ran here to work?
However, it is not surprising to think that computers and microcomputers are definitely high-end things these days, and it is not unusual to attract talents who are fluent in English. Ma Yun was so good in English that year, he went to KFC to apply for a waiter. What's more tragic is that people haven't asked him yet.
Wang Ai endured Huang Xin's nagging on his face, and carefully stunned the waiter, and then he took a breath. Fortunately, not Ma Yun! If you let such a big cow work for yourself, the case cover will not hold down.
One night in June, Wang Ai was going to the paper mill to deal with some management matters, because Wang Bin was tempted by various intervening loan officers, wanted to explode production capacity as soon as possible, seize the market, and use the power of the bank Is a shortcut. So, while holding the ball, Wang Ai was speaking English with Huang Xin, while sitting in the factory to pick up the broken bread and heading towards the factory.
Driving in the dark and quiet suburbs, it was already half past seven in the night at the factory. When Huang Xin followed Wang Ai and got out of the van, he noticed that there was a bright light and a loud voice in front of him.
When is there such a big factory here? Tall chimneys stand under the stars, and people and vehicles in and out of the huge colored steel plant are constantly pushing hand trucks and large trucks for orderly loading. The inspectors weigh each other and register. The machine was roaring in the workshop. Large pieces of white paper flowed down like a waterfall. After being rolled into a large roll, it was cut and lifted, sent to a small slitter, rolled into a suitable thickness, and then sent to the cutting machine to cut it piece by piece. After the normal length, five or six workers gathered around a large table, put them one by one into a plastic bag printed with the "love toilet paper" trademark, and then put them into the big bags one by one and stacked them aside.
When Huang Xin looked, there seemed to be no end in sight.
In a workshop, there are four paper machines, four teams and a continuous production. Under the high lifting frame, there are cranes moving back and forth. The middle-level leader wearing a regular cadre uniform and carrying various equipment maintenance. Inspector in the workshop.
Huang Xin followed behind Wang Ai with a sorrowful expression. The beauty of this great industrial era is unparalleled and can make people's soul throbbing.
Huang Xin couldn't count how many workshops he had passed, and suddenly turned back, leaving only a little light at the factory door.
Huang Xin still couldn't control the sound of a little trembling: "Wang Ai, is this all yours?"
Wang Ai grinned and pointed to his nose: "Wang Ai! Ai! Love paper mill."
