"parking space!"

"parking space?"

"Yes, or it can be said to be the parking lot!"

Ning Weimin's words shocked Axia. She really didn't expect that Ning Weimin would be interested in such a grassroots industry.

To be honest, Axia is really no stranger to the parking lot industry.

Because the port city is also a place where land is at a premium and population density is extremely high.

Due to the scarcity of parking lots, parking in Hong Kong City is a problem.

Therefore, luxury hotels and high-end entertainment venues in Hong Kong City all use "valet parking" signs.

In fact, some Hong Kong people were asked to drive the guests' cars to a parking lot far away, and then notify them in advance to bring the cars back during dinner.

And this industry has always been monopolized by the Hong Kong underworld.

If not for any other reason, it is because this industry is considered a good source of income for those at the bottom of society who have no academic qualifications.

Although many five-star hotels and other high-end hotels have free parking spaces, this is only "free" in name.

Taking a five-star hotel like the Peninsula Hotel as an example, the price for valet parking usually starts at HKD 500.

If the guest stays from afternoon to evening, it is more appropriate to pay 1,000 Hong Kong dollars.

Ah Xia and Sheng Zai, along with Mr. Hong, had managed the valet parking in front of the Peninsula Hotel for 14K.

She still remembers a time when her younger brother couldn't find a place to park the car for the guests and didn't know what to do.

Mr. Hong took the car from his younger brother and drove the guest's car on the road until the guest finished his meal.

Three hours later, when the guest was about to leave, the car's odometer had already driven 200 kilometers.

She didn't expect that she had already opened a nightclub and became the owner, but now she would have to go back to the past and deal with the parking lot. Isn't this like living a better life and going back again?

So based on past experience and instinctive conflict, she immediately expressed doubts.

"Mr. Ning, is this idea really feasible? The return rate of the parking lot does not seem to be very high. In Hong Kong City, public transportation is not as developed as in Japan, but even in the city center, the parking fee is only three Hong Kong dollars. Commercial

Private parking lots are a bit more expensive, costing 8, 10, or 15 HKD per hour, but those locations are very good, just like the parking lots in Ginza and Toranomon, which are also not affordable to ordinary people.

The real money maker in this industry is the valet parking service. But Japanese people don’t seem to be into this. When Japanese people buy cars, they seem to be very precious about them. They don’t drive them out often and don’t like others to touch them. Especially for Japanese people, tipping is very important.

, but it is more like an insult and will be disliked."

It was normal to be questioned. Ning Weimin was mentally prepared for this, but he didn't expect that Axia would agree with him as soon as he opened his mouth.

As the saying goes, if the lamp is not turned on, it will not turn on, and if the reason is not clear, he will not understand. He began to explain very patiently.

"Yes, Axia, what you said is all right. Especially the cultural differences, which require special attention. But you have also ignored some issues. The differences between Tokyo and Hong Kong City will also lead to another side, which is the impact on this industry.

On the plus side, for example, the taxi charges and parking fees in Tokyo are much higher than those in Hong Kong City. Taxis are not so expensive in Hong Kong City, right? The same is true for parking lots in Tokyo. Japanese parking fees are really exciting.

!”

"Maybe because you don't drive and have worked and lived in prosperous areas like Roppongi and Ginza for a long time, you may not have paid too much attention to the parking fees in Japan. Let me tell you this, the high parking fees in Tokyo are not limited to

In prosperous areas, the Japanese government seems to be intentionally using high parking fees to restrict private car travel. Parking fees in the 23 districts in Tokyo are generally very high. The cheapest place costs 300 yen per hour, which is two dollars.

, fifteen Hong Kong dollars."

"And this is just the starting price. In the central business district, it is charged every ten minutes or half an hour. The parking fee for one hour can reach thousands of yen. This is the normal standard. If you want to reserve a rental

It’s not unusual for a parking space to cost 60,000 to 70,000 yen per month in the city center.”

“And it’s not too expensive, because in some places, parking is limited to a limited time, such as one hour or two hours. If you park over the time limit and don’t drive away, someone will immediately come up and post a note. Overtime parking is the same as illegal parking.

The fine for being slapped with a sticker is quite severe, starting at tens of thousands of yen and reaching a maximum of 30,000 yen.”

"If you look at it from the perspective of an office worker, if you don't take into account Japan's overtime culture and only work eight hours a day, in a big city like Tokyo, if you drive to work, the daily parking fee will be at least 5,000 yen. That's 15 per month.
