Chapter 679 Empty
Investors usually invest in the investees, but it is quite rare for the investees to invest in the investors.
However, there are always exceptions.
The best investor of the year in 2013 was now invested in by the big bear she invested in, but she could not resist at all. She could only grab the other party's collar with one hand, bite her red lips tightly, and shake her feet.
She said she would not give it at first, but when the other party came over, she still accepted it without backbone.
If every investor is so easy to deal with, Jiang Qin feels that his group buying can already go to the world.
After a few minutes of slow attack, Mr. Jiang held his angel and came to the living room of the suite, and then the whole room was filled with the "squeaks" caused by the sofa moving under force.
"I... I want to bite you."
"Aren't you biting me all the time?"
"?"
Feng Nanshu was stunned for a while, then seemed to have figured out something, and frightened her little face, but it started to tremble again in less than half a second.
The angel investors with bared fangs and claws became cowardly and inexperienced once they were invested in.
After a long and bumpy ride, the rich girl hugged her brother's neck tightly, shaking so hard that she was almost stiff, sobbing continuously.
Her beautiful eyes were already red like a little rabbit, with a delicate feeling of pear blossoms in the rain.
"You invested several million and cheated me out of my life. You should teach me a lesson."
"You haven't cheated me out of my life yet."
Feng Nanshu couldn't help but say something in a rage.
Jiang Qin lay on her for a while, then looked up at her pear blossom in the rain, thinking that I was actually cheated out of you a long time ago.
This girl is simply the most discerning investor in the world. She doesn't want money, but people. She is simply a clingy person. In the end, she even took the heirloom.
In other words, this trophy may really be well-deserved.
Jiang Qin reached out and picked up his investor and went to the bathroom. In this short five or six steps, Feng Nanshu was almost dumbfounded.
Brother, husband, bad guy, the rich girl kept calling, and she didn't know which of the three names to call.
My brother is my husband, and my husband is a bad guy.
Feng Nanshu was put on the wash basin in the bathroom, repeating this sentence in his heart, and then he began to sob again.
It took four months for the group to adjust its internal structure, and another three months for the subsequent operation and personnel transfer. 2013 passed quickly.
The number of users of Cloud QuickPass has also stabilized, and the market value has increased several times.
During this period, 4G mobile phones have been continuously launched, and various home 4G routers have been rolled out first.
During this period, he went to inspect Alipay's unmanned vending project, and also organized the Kyoto branch to conduct a street questionnaire survey on the use of payment software.
Between the swaying, it has been more than ten days.
More than ten days ago, Joy City officially opened. Jiang Qin did not show up, but only transferred a reporter from the branch of Tonight's Headlines to ask a few face-to-face questions to help cheer.
He was very busy during the opening period and had no time to come to make trouble, so he sent a large number of employees to draw prizes.
Until now, the real things against Joy City have just begun...
At night, the lights are on, and the trial operation of the group food begins. Although tonight is not a holiday, there are still a large number of people rushing in, so that there are heads running under the lights.
The old man who went to Joy City to beg for food some time ago took a taxi back, but when he came back, he found that his original position was occupied by a friendly business, and now he can only hide in a slightly remote corner and curse.
The competition for territory among the beggars has been very intense since ancient times.
After taking a shower, Jiang Qin and Feng Nanshu put on a mask to hide their ears and came to the food festival venue below.
There are countless stalls selling things and various snacks. The atmosphere is very lively. The lights shining from high above face the steam and scatter a blurry rainbow of colors.
"Do you want to eat chicken steak?"
"No."
"Then do you want to eat grilled squid?"
"I don't want to eat it either."
Feng Nanshu felt that he had no appetite. He didn't want to eat anything he saw. It seemed that his little foodie soul was gone. He just kept sticking to Jiang Qin and kept walking forward.
At this time, Han Xiong, the manager of Joy City, had heard Xiao Liu's report. Thinking of what Gu Zhifang said, cold sweat slowly flowed down his temples.
Some things are good to do at the beginning, but changing the time node may have better results.
"No, I have to go to Mr. Cai immediately. Jiang Qin's move is too vicious."
"?"
Manager Liu was stunned for a moment, and his head didn't turn around.
He knew Mr. Cai was the CEO of Hurricane Capital. Although he was also a big shot in Feng Group, he had nothing to do with the Joy City project.
Mr. Feng was staying in a nearby hotel, and he had the final say on the Joy City project. Why did you report to Mr. Cai?
Han Xiong didn't care about his doubts at all, and hurriedly ran out of his office, leaving Manager Liu alone, with a confused face.
The next morning, it was the peak travel season.
The local news on Toutiao released advertisements for the group buying food festival and Wanzhong Creation Collection, and Zhihu's student users also received push notifications at the same time.
Countless people came after hearing the news, filling up the entire block.
In addition to these two activities, the on-site car draw attracted a lot of people. Some nearby residents couldn't help but mutter, thinking that Volkswagen is really popular, why are shopping malls willing to give away cars of this brand.
At the same time, on the road heading west from Wanzhong, the road adjacent to Exit C of the subway station, Feng Shirong and Duan Ying left the hotel where they were staying, got into the back seat of the Mercedes-Benz, and headed towards Joy City.
Seeing countless pedestrians on the road, Feng Shirong couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
"The passenger flow started to increase sharply on October 1st. Yesterday, there were not that many people on this street."
Duan Ying looked out the window: "Is the passenger flow in Kyoto so big on October 1st?"
Feng Shirong raised his lips: "National Day is National Day, and this is the capital."
"Have you already made up your mind?"
"Yes, this is a real business layout."
Feng Shirong crossed his arms: "Choose to open in September, first use promotions to increase customer flow, and then seamlessly connect with the wave of popularity during the National Day holiday. The Joy City brand will definitely become popular in Kyoto."
Duan Ying opened her mouth: "Then what?"
"Then we need to keep an eye on the operation, sign in all the major brands we are waiting for, and then build some specialty stores to form our own style and revitalize the overall commercial real estate situation. The rents of the property units developed behind will also increase."
Feng Shirong's eyes flashed: "The Joy City 2 project will be launched in Shencheng. Construction will start quickly after the funds are returned, and then one by one it will bear fruit and blossom."
"Then Feng..."
"Even if Feng has established a firm foothold in the commercial real estate industry, his valuation will continue to rise. My father should be very pleased."
After Duan Ying heard this, she clenched her fists and couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
The ridicule in the milk tea shop and the questioning at the press conference will all disappear with the success of Joy City.
She wanted to know how Jiang Qin couldn't stand his bullying Mrs. Jiang, but felt helpless.
But as the car drove farther and farther west, Feng Shirong's expression gradually became confused.
Because at this time, there were fewer and fewer people on the street, especially when passing the subway entrance D, the flow of people seemed to be cut off instantly.
The cars are constantly moving, so the changes in the flow of people in the entire neighborhood are clearly visible to them.
At this time, Feng Shirong's smile gradually moved to the driver's face. This empty street is so fun, I can even drift and spray!
Half an hour later, the car arrived at Joy City. From the moment he entered the side road, Feng Shirong's heart fell to the bottom, and an unknown premonition gradually surged into his heart.
And when he got off the car and arrived inside Joy City, his premonition turned into reality in an instant.
Joy City was deserted. The entire hall was so quiet that even the sound of a pin dropping could be heard clearly.
In the cosmetics store and jewelry counter on the first floor, all the waiters stared with big eyes, and there was a sense of panic in their eyes, as if something was shaking in their hearts.
How is it possible? This is October 1st...
Feng Shirong and Duan Ying stood at the door, feeling as if they were struck by lightning.
Han Xiong came in a hurry at this time. Before he could stand still, Feng Shirong grabbed him by the collar. The words "What's going on" were almost yelled out.
"Before Wanzhong was built, the business district where Xihanheqing settled was nearby, and many of the surrounding shops were almost their units."
"Later, the catering brand moved into Wanzhong, and those units were taken over by the hotel brand of Linchuan Business Gang, and they all gathered around Wanzhong."
"Judging from the location, the right wing of Wanzhong Hotel is a brand hotel that is very popular in group booking. It was fully booked yesterday, and their food festival and creations are located in the back wing, connected with the CB exit of the subway. , presenting an encirclement that reaches directly into the mall.”
"The advertising instructions in the subway are very clear, and tourists will never get off the subway station near us."
"In other words, the food, clothing, housing and transportation, combined with the food festival, are like a net bag, and not a single customer will be missed to us."
"Joy City is not very competitive to begin with. As soon as they launch an event, we will immediately lose our traffic."
"In addition, Vanzhong has recently launched new stores with local characteristics such as Hong Kong restaurants, Bobo Chicken, and Hakka cuisine, and is engaged in brand operations, including all-round marketing on Tonight Toutiao and Zhihu."
"The most terrible thing is that the distance from their side to the nearest scenic spot is almost the same as the distance from our side to the scenic spot, but they are not in the same line. We were completely crossed."
"Mr. Feng, the supply chain trucks that have been arriving at Wanzhong in the past few days, 20 to 30 trucks in total, are not prepared for the opening of Joy City, but are prepared for October 1st."
"We thought wrong."
"What's the use of attacking us when we open? When the time comes, we can spend some money to increase the customer flow, and we can also claim to the outside world that it suddenly became popular, right?"
"They had planned on October 1 from the beginning and planned to keep Joy City vacant for a week during this period, so all those brands just asked to discuss it after October 1."
"It's a setback in the opening of the business. There's not a lot of customers. But during the Golden Week, Joy City is empty. This is the biggest fucking joke. It can be passed down for a lifetime. It's October 1st!"
Feng Shirong's mind was buzzing, and Han Xiong's words behind him were almost inaudible.
During the opening period, he was on tenterhooks, fearing that the public would suddenly stage an event to show off his power, but he did not expect that the real business war would be scheduled for October 1st.
Yes, having no one on October 1st is more deadly than having no one open for business.
Feng Shirong raised his head: "Where is the store on the third floor?"
"I went to the food festival, and... I went to drive a car."
"They also smoke cars?"
"Yes, draw our cars."
"?"
At the beginning of October 1st, Wanzhong was bustling with people from morning to night.
The hotel guests who lived on the right went downstairs and entered the food festival, went to the mall, and then took the subway to the nearby scenic spots.
Joy City was equivalent to being directly marked as a no-man's land by the blockade line. It was not until the evening that Wanzhong's capacity could not bear it, and some people came to Joy City, but they also left in a hurry after a round of shopping.
It's quite interesting to say that Joy City was highly referenced to the layout of Wanzhong at the beginning of its design, leaving a wide square and a semi-open-air area, and the pedestrian path was also designed to be very wide.
But it was not until this moment that they realized that this design was used in this way.
Joy City will not be affected by the short-term money-burning competition. The Feng family is big and powerful and can withstand it.
But October 1st was empty. After this matter was spread, I am afraid that no one dared to open a store here.
This mall, no one went to it on October 1st.
Without brand stores, Joy City can't continue to sell at a loss, and the whole project will enter a vicious cycle.
Joy City itself has no strength. It has always relied on burning money to maintain its glorious facade. It can be seen that it will soon attract a group of main stores, but now it has been reduced to its original state in an instant.
This is the real ebb tide.
