Chapter 257 Everyone Is a Scalper!

For ordinary people.

The most important thing about a gym is not whether it is prosperous or not, or whether it has enough equipment.

It's about what kind of effects this gym can bring to bodybuilders.

After all, except for a few celebrities who take photos in yoga pants, most people go to the gym to have a better figure.

Now, in just over a week, the effect is so obvious.

Naturally, it inspired ordinary people’s interest in fitness.

However, what none of them expected was.

All the star gyms in the country have no quota.

At the gym, I can't get a fitness card.

This is definitely the first time for everyone.

It is even the first time for many people to know that gyms have a maximum number of members.

But with just a little explanation, everyone understood.

No matter how big the gym is, it is not infinite.

There are only so many people that can be accommodated at one time.

If the number of fitness cards sold exceeds the standard.

That's the peak period from 7 to 9 o'clock after get off work.

You probably have to queue if you want to go for a run.

Who can bear this?

They haven't experienced this kind of thing before, just because most gyms simply don't have enough members.

And indeed it is.

Gym owners across the country were filled with envy after learning that Star Gym was full of members.

They recruit a large number of sales every day, and they have to pay commission to sales for less than half of the membership fees they collect.

This business is still tepid.

The first thought when I wake up every morning is to think about whether to run away today.

And what about the Star Gym? No sales are required, customers just bring their own money.

The profit margin is already higher than theirs.

It's actually full of members.

There are 5,000 places, and each place costs 3,000 yuan.

One week after opening, 15 million was collected.

This is not counting the outrageous private class attendance rate at Xingchen Gym...

As senior practitioners, they had never imagined that someone could make money so easily by opening a gym.

They learned from the experience and analyzed in their minds the reasons why Xingchen Gym makes money.

What kind of card, monthly card, refundable annual card.

What high-end fitness equipment.

These are just the icing on the cake.

Even if they learn it, it won't mean much.

On the contrary, it may also affect income.

The most important thing is the fitness majors trained by Xingchen Academy.

These students give guests excellent fitness feedback.

This is the core competitiveness of Xingchen Gym.

If it were next year, they would also be able to recruit Xingchen students.

That's not a direct takeoff.

The eyes of all the major gym owners are green at this moment.

They were determined.

When Xingchen Gym is willing to let people go next year, we must recruit more students majoring in Xingchen Fitness.

As long as the coach is strong.

Then didn’t their performance take off immediately?

In short, the popularity of Star Gym has simply brought them a shock to another dimension.

Let them know for the first time.

It’s so easy to make money at the gym.

Star Academy is simply the savior of the entire fitness industry!

…

I can’t even get a membership card for Xingchen Gym.

This has made Star Gym even more popular on the Internet.

If you have money, just swipe and swipe to buy the remaining Global Fitness Annual Pass.

At 10,000 pieces, it's definitely not cheap.

But for business travelers who really have fitness needs and travel frequently to big cities around the world, it is a great value.

After all, Star Gyms are opened in major cities at home and abroad.

Even if you are unfamiliar with the place you live abroad, you can still find a suitable fitness place.

10,000 pieces, worth every penny.

But only a few can apply for a global fitness card.

And the global fitness card also has a limit.

So most netizens still can’t do it.

Maybe it's because I'm in a commotion because I can't get it.

Netizens were unable to get the card, and their desire became even stronger.

Especially the rich.

The more limited something is, the more I want it.

So I made a price directly online, 6,000 per card...

The fitness card of Xingchen Gym can be transferred and refunded.

A card purchased for three thousand can be resold for six thousand, and the profit will be doubled.

But not many members are interested.

After all, the effects of Star Gym are unique in the country.

If this is sold.

It will be difficult to buy it back again.

So, I have to add money...

Just for one night.

The card transfer price of Star Gym has soared to 9,000 or even tens of thousands.

The main reason is that there are too few people willing to sell.

If supply and demand are unbalanced, prices will naturally skyrocket.

There are also differences in prices in different cities.

For example, Tianhai City has almost seven thousand.

In the richest places such as Magic City, the price skyrocketed to 10,000.

And demand still exceeds supply.

Many people who have applied for a fitness card feel that they have made a lot of money.

I just wait until tomorrow morning to go to the gym with the rich guy who bought the card to transfer the card.

It triples as soon as it changes hands.

Selling blood is not that profitable.

…

Star Academy.

Ye Chen stretched leisurely and looked at the first week's report sent from Xingchen Fitness Company.

There are a total of twelve star gyms in the country.

Just one week.

Basically all the 5,000 annual passes in each store are sold out.

A total of 1,000 global cards worldwide have also been sold out.

This data made Ye Chen's mouth curl up involuntarily.

If all 5,000 annual cards are sold, that will be a return of 15 million.

Twelve stores, that’s 180 million.

Plus 10 million from Global Cards.

This is a return of 190 million.

But that's not all.

The demand for personal training classes for fitness students who intern in the gym is also in short supply.

Classes are fully scheduled every day.

In the first week, each person took an average of six private lessons per day.

Xingchen Gym is a formal enterprise, so it is naturally impossible to give 70% to students.

In that case, Star Gym would be working in vain for the students.

But even if the share is changed, it is still very conscientious.

It’s 50-50 for both sides.

The students have six classes every day, and each class earns 250 yuan.

The daily income is basically 1,500 yuan.

Even if you have two days off every week, 30,000 to 40,000 yuan a month is easy.

Jump directly into the high-paying class.

No need to sell courses or promote.

You only need to attend classes step by step every day to earn such an income.

It is definitely enough to make countless people envious.

And students make money.

Star Gym can earn the same amount.

Assuming that one student contributes a thousand and a half a day, works 22 days a month, and each gym has 30 students.

That Star Gym can earn almost a million dollars a month just from private lessons.

In one year, that’s 12 million.

There are twelve gyms in the country, which adds up to almost 150 million.

This does not include some swimming lessons, physical tests, and some additional income such as swimsuits and goggles.

Income from private lessons plus membership fees.

In other words, the twelve domestic gyms alone can collect around 350 million yuan in repayments every year.

Star Gym doesn’t need sales.

Therefore, the proportion of personnel expenses is much less than that of ordinary gyms.

The main expenditure items are gym maintenance fees and equipment update fees.

But because the owner of fitness equipment is one of the shareholders.

Therefore, expenditures in this area are very little.

Ye Chen predicts that the domestic net profit alone may reach 300 million.

The shares of his own Star Academy are close to 70%.

We receive at least 200 million yuan every year.

Star Academy did not invest a single penny in opening the Star Gym.

So there is no such thing as returning to one’s origins.

What you get is earned.

Two hundred million a year is not a small amount.

This income made Ye Chen feel very good.

I searched the Internet with great interest for comments from netizens about Xingchen Gym.

Ye Chen saw the rising enthusiasm among netizens.

But soon, Ye Chen discovered that there were members who wanted to become scalpers under the inducement of large sums of money.

I even discovered that the transfer price of my own fitness card with an ex-factory price of 3,000 has increased to 10,000.

No wonder they all become scalpers.

Ye Chen can understand the thoughts of people who sell cards at high prices.

Because Ye Chen was an ordinary person in his previous life.

Most scalpers are actually not professional scalpers.

But when they discovered that they could make twice as much money by changing hands.

Then everyone is a scalper.

This is the case with most concert scalpers and the like.

Many people who first grabbed tickets planned to watch it themselves.

But when you find out that you can make two or three times more money by changing hands.

Then what kind of concert are you going to watch? I’ll give you the tickets and I’ll just go home and listen to QQ music.

And in my own gym, there is obviously a situation of scalpers all over the place.

It’s not wrong to have scalpers all over the country.

But nationwide scalpers will have an impact on people with normal needs.

For example, when watching a concert, there are only 10,000 fans who want to see it.

Ten thousand people grab a thousand tickets, the chance is one in ten.

But when everyone discovers that there are benefits to scalping tickets, the number of people who come to grab tickets will increase to 100,000.

If fans want to get tickets at this time, there is a one percent chance.

This has a huge impact on true fans.

And the same goes for the gym.

If you grab the card, you can resell it for several times the price.

Then professional scalpers will definitely settle in.

Ordinary people who really want to get fit can no longer get a membership card.

so.

The phenomenon of scalping must be put an end to it.

And the solution is simple.

Just turn off the fitness card transfer option.

In the past, card transfers were allowed only for the sake of humanization and customer convenience.

But this has clearly become a loophole.

This will lead to rampant scalping transactions.

Then close it.

Either cancel the card and get your principal back.

Or just keep using it.

Moreover, the returned card will not be sold immediately.

Instead, you have to wait a day before the vacant slots will be put on the shelves at random times for sale to the outside world.

It directly blocks the bug that when the card is withdrawn here, the card is processed immediately there!

…

After handling everything, Ye Chen was satisfied.

The next step is to look at the data from eight foreign gyms sent in the mailbox.

There are only two gyms in Asia, one in the island nation of Kyoto.

The other one is in Singapore.

When voting was held, many students voted for Pattaya.

However, it was rejected by Ye Chen with one vote.

After students officially graduate, they can work wherever they like.

Even if he changed his personality, Ye Chen had no right to stop him.

He could even praise himself as a warrior in his heart.

But it was definitely not allowed during the internship.

Not to mention sex change, even if he accidentally got a disease or something, he couldn't explain it to the students' parents.

So there are only two in Asia.

Business is pretty good.

Although not as popular as in China.

But it looks like it will be popular soon, don't worry.

However, the report data of the branches in Europe and the United States seems to be a bit cold...

The average number of members in the six stores is only about 500.

And they are basically Asian members.

In other words, the members are basically Chinese who study and work abroad.

There are basically no locals.

What's going on?

Isn't the fitness market in Europe and the United States very popular?

Why is Xingchen Fitness Center so popular in China.

When I went there, I was coldly received?

Ye Chen couldn't figure it out for a while.

What's going on?
