Chapter 630 Internet Cafe Planning
Chapter 630 Internet cafe planning
Eating steak at Zixia Lake Western Restaurant, everyone ordered fried noodles when they went to the staff canteen. Zhai Danqing had a small appetite, and perhaps to maintain her charming and sexy body, she only took a can of Fanda and listened to Du Fei and the others about opening an Internet cafe. It was just nine o'clock, and the students who had had midnight snacks had not yet come. There were not many staff canteens, which made it convenient for them to talk about things quietly.
Zhang Ke was less than half full in a Western restaurant, but he didn't think that the fried noodles in the teacher canteen were much worse than steak. He ate with relish. He listened to Du Fei while eating. Hearing Du Fei considering the issue of consumption stratification, he knew that they had initially found the way to this industry.
"If you want to say that the rent of shops in Xuefu Lane will not be too low in the future, the annual rent of shops per square meter of the ground floor will start at least 1,000 yuan," Zhang Ke's chopsticks and rolled noodles into his mouth. His voice sounded a little vague. Fortunately, he could hear it clearly. "If you go to the north gate of Dongda University to find a house, the rent of the same area will probably not be one-fifth or sixths. Even if you go to Malian Street to open an Internet cafe, the store rent will be much cheaper... If you want to open an Internet cafe in Xuefu Lane, you really don't have any specific cost advantages. However, some students in the same school will commit suicide because of tuition fees, while others will bring nannies to school. This is probably an extreme manifestation of consumption stratification..."
In 1997, except for a few special colleges, such as agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, and normal schools, other universities in China implemented unified charges, and the average charging standard also exceeded 2,400 yuan per academic year, which was considered to have officially entered the high-cost period of colleges and universities. Du Fei and Meng Le did not have much deep feelings about these things at this time, and college students like Shen Xiao who came out of poor areas had feelings.
Zhang Ke cited such facts in a relaxed tone, but to facilitate the explanation of the existence of consumption stratification.
Du Fei had the idea of starting a business as soon as he entered university. Zhai Danqing was quite interested when he heard this. After hearing what Zhang Ke said, his beautiful eyes glanced at him. The so-called people who brought a nanny to school probably meant that he was himself.
Zhang Ke licked the oil on his lips, picked up the delicious bottle on the table and took a few bites. He was anxious and choked, and then signaled Du Fei, and Meng Le continued.
Meng Le said: "We also need to consider the gender differences. We have done some surveys. Yesterday, we only had time to conduct sample surveys on students from Dongda University and the Conservatory of Music. Girls yearn for a comfortable and safe environment. For example, there are no traces of girls in the computer room at the north gate of Dongda University. The factors are multiple. It is very important that the environment of the computer room is dirty, messy and poor, which blocks these delicate girls from outside..."
"This is good, so I should consider it like this," Zhang Ke nodded. Du Fei and Meng Le thought he had any opinions and looked at him. Unexpectedly, Zhang Ke said, "More beautiful girls, I can go to your Internet cafe to play online even if I have nothing to do." Du Fei and Meng Le and the others considered this, and he liked it very much. The Internet cafes were all boys wearing slippers and feet crossed on the corner of the chair. Of course, Zhang Ke would not be very interested. If the environment created could attract girls from the Conservatory of Music and Normal University, it would be comfortable to think about it. Then again, there are so many beautiful girls in Yingying and Yanyan, are you still afraid that you can't attract bees and butterflies to attract those boys to the Internet cafe? Back then, did you often pull Meng Le and Du Fei to search for those conservatory of music and normal university girls? Of course, Meng Le and Du Fei could not have such memories.
"Ah, that's it?" Zhang Ke's suggestion was really helpless. Du Fei seemed to recognize Zhang Ke's intention to let him go, so he didn't expect much from Zhang Ke. In fact, he also wanted to try it seriously in his heart. He hoped that Zhang Ke would help him seriously, and he felt a little cheating.
"That's it. Can I have any nobler ideas?" Zhang Ke smiled, spread his hands and asked Du Fei, "Do you have a preliminary budget?"
"Well, I'm doing it," Du Fei said, "Meng Le still wants to experience it for a few more days in Wilt. I plan to withdraw first. Some of my thoughts have not been combined with Meng Le. Since you ask, I will report a rough number first..."
Du Fei has been in the Wilt Internet Cafe for almost half a month. It is enough for a person with high understanding and diligence to have half a month. Besides, as the first regular Internet cafe in Jianye, Wilt itself has many experimental things. Wilt's existing model itself has many immature aspects. The key is to look at Du Fei and others to explore and understand the way of business by themselves.
Du Fei no longer went to work in Wilt Internet Cafe, so he evacuated first, because he wanted to officially operate the Internet cafe as a project.
Du Fei took out a small notebook from his carry-on bag, which was filled with some numbers and words, and a messy diagram. Except for Du Fei himself, it was difficult for others to understand these things. Du Fei doubled and reviewed his thoughts these days. After that, he said: "A store with a price of 1,000 square meters costs four million..."
"Uh!" Meng Le excitedly discussed the details of opening an Internet cafe for the past two days and nights. He had a dream that he could practice and chase it in college. He always had an uncontrollable excitement. Meng Le felt that his speaking speed in the past two days was much faster than usual, but he had not had time to discuss the scale of the Internet cafe in the future. He always thought that it was quite amazing to have 40 or 50 machines in Xuefu Lane. Unexpectedly, Du Fei had a budget of 4 million yuan. He was a little stupid. He opened his mouth and didn't know how to interrupt. After contacting these days, he also knew that Zhang Ke, Du Fei was not from an ordinary family, but 4 million yuan, which seemed too incredible for college students in 1997. Who would take 4 million seriously?
Seeing Meng Le being frightened, Zhang Ke patted his shoulder, whispered to Zhai Danqing, and said with a smile: "There is no need to consider the source of funds. Sister Zhai is a rich woman..."
Zhai Danqing smiled charmingly and said, "What's wrong with me? I'll sit here and listen to the story."
Seeing that Zhang Ke and Zhai Danqing were not very concerned about the number of four million, Meng Le's mind was settled. He had planned to cooperate with Du Fei to run this Internet cafe. When he heard Du Fei telling his real plan at this time, he knew that he could only help him at this time. After all, the project of four million cannot be carried by him with others at this time.
Zhang Ke said to Du Fei: "I'm talking more about it. Sister Zhai is here too. Maybe I will give you some advice when my interest comes."
"The store rental fee is 800,000 yuan per year. Compared with Sun Jingmeng's decoration budget, the decoration fee is 400,000 yuan, the purchase cost of 400 sets of terminal equipment and furniture requires 2 million yuan, the network equipment and integrated wiring cost is 150,000 yuan, the industry supervision fee and dedicated line access cost are 350,000 yuan. These are the main items, and there is also 200,000 yuan in working capital." Du Fei reported the approximate budget figures, which were about four million yuan. He saw him turn the small notebook in his hand a few pages and continued, "Operational expenses include employee salary, water and electricity bills, dedicated line access fee, store rental
, public relations, taxes, equipment depreciation, etc., there is no time to calculate these. The operation is a member-based operation, and the Internet fee is divided into two categories: membership and non-members. In addition to the main online fee income, the revenue from beverage sales is also very large. We observed from Wilt that almost 40% of customers need to buy beverages; in addition, I and Mengle planned that Xuefu Lane should be considered a commercial district, and our Internet cafes are mainly aimed at nearby universities, and it has a lot of value in advertising. Advertising space rental and sales can be considered as possible operating income..."
"Ah, considering the rental of advertising spaces," Zhang Ke didn't expect that Du Fei and Meng Le could really be two cobblers to match Zhuge Liang. It should be Du Fei's vision that made their thinking more divergent. The Internet cafe they envisioned was actually the prototype of a concept Internet cafe that only came out in China after 2000. Unfortunately, Ada's current products are not aimed at college groups, so they can't help them directly. Since they have this idea, they can always do their work bit by bit, and nodded to praise Du Fei and the others, "No, good, this idea is very good. Now, I think this Internet cafe is very interesting."
Meng Le didn't know how proud he was to get Zhang Ke's praise, but Du Fei's confidence increased and said, "Although there is a plan, there are many things to do, including purchase of machines, decoration, business procedures, etc. I also want to find someone from the Information Academy to do a billing management and membership management system. In addition, there are many things that have not been considered that may pop up at any time. Tomorrow, will you have time to accompany us to see the store?"
"Okay, I'm still idle anyway..." Zhang Ke agreed readily. Anyway, he just ran over to pick a place to greet Shao Zhigang. Even if he couldn't rent it for the store, what could Shao Zhigang say?
"It's better for you. You can realize your dreams at a young age..." Zhai Danqing sighed. The reason why Du Fei can do these things is because Zhang Ke is a strong support behind it. Otherwise, no matter how powerful Du Fei is, where will he get four million startup capital?
"I also want to ask Sister Zhai for advice." Du Fei said with a smile.
