Chapter 359: Hot Pot Xishi Opens a Branch

"Xiaoyu, do you have time to come to Guangzhou?"

"Guangshi, Dad, what are you doing there?"

"Tomorrow the branch in Guangshi will open."

"Oh, open for business, Dad, I don't have time."

I was so busy with the company that I forgot that Hot Pot Xishi was about to open a branch in Guangshi.

However, where can Chen Yu go?

In order to raise the price, he went to 3721 several times these days.

This also makes Yahoo, Microsoft, Baidu... these very intentional companies a little anxious.

For a while, the 3721 offer has risen from the original $50 million to the current $90 million.

However, Chen Yu felt that 3721 could sell more, and even shouted a price of 100 million US dollars.

For such an offer, Baidu pulled out of the competition.

Although they want to acquire 3721, Baidu has not been listed yet. Where can there be such a large cash flow?

Plus their PPC has been adjusted a bit, and they haven't recovered yet.

But even so, in the face of Huanyu Technology's offer, Yahoo and Microsoft are still in hot pursuit.

Microsoft quoted a price of $110 million.

Yahoo even reported a sky-high price of $120 million.

At this time, Huanyu Technology, represented by Chen Yu, also opted out.

Huanyu Technology is just raising the price, isn't it really going to acquire 3721?

For him, although 3721 is powerful, it is not a particularly glorious business after all.

It can be used in a short period of time. In the future, the domestic Internet will become more and more standardized, and 3721 does not have a large market.

Unless he doesn't engage in rogue tactics after 3721, but if he doesn't, how will he make money?

Of course, 3721 itself was sold for the purpose of cooperating with Zhou Hongyi later.

It is impossible for Chen Yu to challenge Microsoft and Yahoo all the time.

As for whether 3721 is sold to Yahoo or Microsoft, it is none of Chen Yu's business.

"Ah, son, come when you don't have time."

"Dad, I don't know anything, it's the same whether I come or not."

"No, you have to come. If you don't come, I have no idea."

"Well, okay, I'll be there tomorrow."

Although going and not going are the same, but since his father strongly requested, Chen Yu stopped what he was doing.

The next day, Chen Yu went to Guangshi.

Guangshi is the provincial capital of Guangxi. To say that the entire economy is not worse than Shencheng at all, and even stronger than Shencheng in general.

Therefore, the first branch of Hot Pot Xishi, Chen Simian first thought of Guangshi.

However, although Chen Yu arrived in Guangshi, on the way to the hotpot Xishi Guangshi branch, Chen Yu encountered a traffic jam.

Originally it was possible to arrive at 12 o'clock, but it was blocked to 13 o'clock.

When Chen Yu arrived at his destination, the hot pot Xishi Guangshi branch was already full.

"Son, you just arrived."

"Hehe, look, Dad, it's the same whether I'm here or not."

"It's okay, it's okay."

Chen Simian smiled with satisfaction.

Before, he really didn't know what to do, especially when he saw that his son didn't come, Chen Simian's heart was messed up, but he was thinking a lot. However, even if Chen Yu didn't come, when they announced their official opening at 12 o'clock, the hot pot Xishi Guangshi branch was full within half an hour, and all the hundreds of tables were full.

Not only that, there are dozens of people queuing up during the rest period.

"Hey, why is Shen Yue here?"

Looking ahead, Chen Yu saw Shen Yue.

"Oh, you said Shen Yue, I owe a lot to Shen Yue recently. If it weren't for Shen Yue, your father would have been deceived by some people."

Having said that, Chen Simian explained Shen Yue's performance in the store in detail to Chen Yu one by one.

It turned out that Shen Yue was just a waiter for the hot pot Xi Shi, and it was temporary.

Because there is a class, it is a temporary waiter.

However, Shen Yue directly sorted out a set of hot pot Xishi service procedures during the waiter period.

In addition, he also put forward a lot of valuable opinions on the following procurement, branch location selection, and self-built food channels.

Therefore, even though Shen Yue was just a student, Chen Simian still promoted Shen Yue to be the manager of the Beishi branch.

"My classmate is a scholar, and I will use it more in the future."

Chen Yu nodded secretly.

He has long known that this Shen Yue is very capable, but he did not expect to be promoted to the store manager in just a few months.

However, the store manager is also a jerk.

With her abilities, she can act as a regional manager.

However, this has to be done slowly.

According to the rules of Hot Pot Xishi, all senior managers must be promoted step by step from the lowest level.

"Sure, your classmate knows more than me, and your horizons are also very broad."

Chen Simian also nodded.

He is just a wild way, and he has been operating in the direction of Chen Yu before.

Although this operation will not happen, and grasp the general direction, it can also operate very well.

But in terms of specific affairs, Chen Yu naturally ran out of time.

At this time, the appearance of Shen Yue was to make up for the vacancy in the specific operation of hot pot Xi Shi.

"By the way, what about your three classmates in the same dormitory?"

"Aren't they coming too?"

"No, they seem to want to join?"

"They figured it out."

Chen Yu smiled and said: "Joining is possible, but it is still the same as before. You must fully obey the command of the headquarters. Whether it is site selection, staff, or ingredients, decoration plans...etc, all must be 100% in line with the headquarters."

"Xiaoyu, is this too strict?"

"Strict is stricter, but if it's not like this, then the quality of our hot pot Xishi cannot be guaranteed. Dad, look at what our snail Xishi is now?"

"That too."

Before the Chinese New Year, when Chen Simian replied to the letter Feng, he went to various other Tianluo Xishi branches to check. It doesn't matter at first glance, but it is found that there are many branches that are not doing well. Even, there are several losses, which make the brand image of Tianluo Xishi plummet. Facing such a situation, Chen Simian shook his head helplessly.

It is impossible for him to engage in Tianluo Xishi again.

Today's hot pot Xishi must not repeat the old road of the original Tianluo Xishi.

...

"Come on, cheers, the branch opened today, thank you for your help during this time, I toast everyone."

At 12 o'clock in the evening, the hot pot Xi Shi was still in business.

Yes, a major feature of Hot Pot Xishi is that it is open 24 hours a day.

But although it is open 24 hours, there are not too many people after 12 o'clock in the evening.

Therefore, at 12 o'clock in the evening, all the staff of the Guangshi Hotpot Xishi branch got together and held a celebratory dinner.

To express his gratitude, Chen Yu toasted everyone.

"Mr. Chen, I heard that our hot pot Xishi is going to be listed, isn't it?"

The branch is so hot today, and the employees are extremely excited.

After drinking a glass of wine, Yang Bin said loudly with the strength of the wine.

"Yang Bin, who told you?"

"No, Mr. Chen, Mr. Chen said."

Pointing to Chen Simian, Yang Bin said.

"sweat……"

Chen Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

This was what Chen Yu said to his father, Chen Simian.

His goal, of course, is to go public.

But Chen Yu didn't expect his father to say that to others.

However, after all said, Chen Yu did not deny it, but said: "The listing is a little far away, and it is not possible for the time being. However, our goal is to go public. Of course, from the current point of view, there is no hot pot restaurant listed in China. For many people, opening a hot pot restaurant on the market may seem like a joke, more like bragging. However, I believe that as long as we work together, is it God’s rule that opening a hot pot restaurant cannot be listed?”

Although the remarks were not so loud, everyone was extremely excited after speaking.

They had heard this rumor before.

At that time, they just laughed, because it was too exaggerated, this bullshit is too high?

But Chen Yu said, whoever said that those who opened hot pot restaurants could not be listed, seemed to wake them up all of a sudden.

Especially those ordinary employees, they suddenly found that their own destiny seems to be in their own hands.

"Mr. Chen is right, whoever said that a hot pot restaurant can't be listed, I was the first to disagree with Gao Tian."

"Yes, although I am a waiter, if I can serve hot pot Xi Shi on the market, then my life will be worth it."

"Come on, cheers..."

The crowd clinked glasses again.

Shen Yue looked at Chen Yu, also blushed, touched Chen Yu's cup lightly, and whispered: "Cheers"

"cheers."

Chen Yu replied gratefully.
