Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Saturday, 30 April.

Pei Qian had lunch and snuck out to the escrow gym.

As I told Zhang Yuan earlier, I need to find a coach for the club, but where exactly is this coach going to find him... Bae Qian really has no idea.

Certainly not a professional e-sports coach.

Because GOG is still an emerging game, although Pei Huan has heard that some old brand clubs seem to be working on the GOG division, overall, the heat is not enough, and formality is not enough to talk about.

In other words, everyone's level is still very low in the initial stages.

Because in order for a club to open a division for a game, it must be checked to see if the game can go on fire in the country for a long time.

If you just opened a division and invested resources to start training, the game would get cold, and the division would only be disbanded, wouldn't that be busy for nothing?

At present, GOG and ioi can't compete, and the idea of many clubs is to pick the winners of these two games, two emerging MOBA-class games that just need one segment.

So, even with the formation of the GOG division, it's all rooster pecking.

At this time, a professional coach, even a less talented professional coach, brings the team a new boost.

Zhang Yuan doesn't know much about e-sports, but at least he's not stupid. Most of the coaches he finds aren't too bad.

If you add the mysterious luck that President Pei has always had, accidentally, an SSR pops up among the team members or coaches...

The consequences are unthinkable.

Therefore, Pei Qian must find a way to satisfy himself and leave Zhang Yuan speechless.

Hmm...

It's too hard!

Pei Qian thought a little bit of a brain ache, but good thing I agreed with Zhang Yuan earlier. I found this candidate within two weeks, so I don't have to rush it yet.

Come to the entrance to the hosted gym and Pei Qian steps in.

Also on weekends, the number of people in the gym was significantly lower than the last time they came.

Pei Huan stunned for a moment and then realized what was going on. He couldn't help but be ecstatic.

Many of last week's customers have been discouraged!

Because of the special fee model for hosting a gym, many people don't have to hesitate to host members, after all, the balance is refundable.

However, these individuals do not necessarily adhere strictly to the planned training plan and continue to do so.

Once these people are unsustainable, they will be “refunded” and will not be able to join again in the short term.

So I successfully discouraged a bunch of customers!

Although that billboard did attract a group of customers, and someone did have a membership, what use would it be to not stick to the rules of hosting a gym?

Pei Qian couldn't help but be a little proud of his wisdom.

In addition, there have been some minor changes in the hosted gym compared to last week.

The number of permanent service staff in the gym has reached three.

Originally there was only one person in charge of handing out the bracelet and reception reception, and the coaches had nothing to do with the reception and guidance.

The number of service staff has now been expanded, also on a rotational basis, and the gym is permanently staffed by three.

A reception desk, mainly responsible for reception, such as registration of customer information, distribution of towels, bracelets, water, etc.

An administration responsible for day-to-day company business such as coaching schedules, docking with fish takeaways, etc.

A planner responsible for scheduling, developing training plans, analyzing current customer information for the gym, etc.

Of course, the division of labour among these three positions is not so clear and sometimes helps each other.

“President Pei.” The front desk was the first to see Pei Qian.

“Always good, Pei.” By noon, the administration is scheduling today's fitness meal with two coaches.

“President Pei.” The planner tapped the keyboard carefully on the notebook in the lounge area, and when he saw Pei Huan, he stood up and nodded.

Pei Qian nodded with a slight smile.

The reason for giving this planner some more expression is that... the planner's true identity is an undercover person who was embedded in it and is one of the eighteen pipe losers!

In private, the pipe loser is called Pei Qian “Senior”.

In public, it's still called "President Pei”.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be obvious, implying that there is such a mysterious department...

The gym position is closed on a rotating basis, and the clerk, although a student, does not have many courses of his own, and Handong University can go to the hosting gym two steps away, so he is still competent for this part of his job.

The position of a hosted fitness planner is not available in any other gym because hosting a gym differs from other gyms.

In order to reduce peak passenger traffic, Goli Cheng advised Bai Qian that an APP should be made to allow customers to schedule their own appointments and control the number of gyms at the same time, while making preliminary arrangements for each customer's time at the outset, such as discovering that Thursday customers are particularly numerous, then there will be no more Thursday customers who want to come, unless there is another time.

Currently, the APP is a while away from being developed, and these times can only be done manually by planners.

However, given the small number of people in the gym today, which is far from what the gym can afford, nothing can be delayed.

The current position of planner is, at best, an initial arrangement that does not need to be specific to a certain period of time on a given day.

Pei Qian arranged this pipeline student to serve as a planner, mainly to give him the most accurate information on the gym and keep track of how far the gym currently stands from being profitable.

Next Saturday will be the first regular tube loss meeting, but Pei Qian can't wait.

He pretended to say hello to the crowd for nothing and came to sit next to the piper.

There are too many losers, Bae Jian forgot his name, but it doesn't matter, just remember which department he is undercover in.

“How far is the gym from profitable now?” Pei Qian asked carelessly in a chatty tone.

The piper earnestly replied: "General Pei, in terms of the current daily expenses of the gym, it takes an average of about 200 people a day to recover the cost, regardless of the profit from touching fish take-out. ”

“Taking into account the depreciation of equipment, routine maintenance, and a certain amount of profit, it would be better to take back early investments in fitness equipment, etc., 300 person-times a day. ”

“Our current figures are… twenties. ”

“Even at the peak of the population, the overall gym utilization rate is less than a quarter. ”

Pei Qian is very satisfied with this answer.

Look, it's a good idea for me to transfer the pipeline losers, report the work neatly and without any excess information.

Pei Huan nodded in praise of the location: "Nice, keep up the good work. ”

The current situation is still far from profitable, which is good news, Pei Huan wondered, almost could consider opening a branch.

He continued to sneak in and saw Kuritsu, who was madly iron, in the strength training area.

I don't know if it's my delusion, but Kwok Licheng's head seems to be another lap bigger than it was last week.

Pei Qian was very satisfied with this.

This Guo Licheng is very good!

Previously, he tried to practice and get bigger than all the coaches, so he didn't have the energy to do any fancy marketing activities and the gym wouldn't make any money.

Kwok Licheng is really trying to train, muscles don't lie.

When Mr. Pei arrived, Guo Licheng hurriedly put the barbell down and stood up.

“President Pei! I am…”

Guo Licheng just wanted to explain that Pei Qian had raised his hand to stop him.

“You did a great job, as the manager of the entire gym and the signature, you must be in the best shape to attract customers! So don't let it get loose, keep going! ”

“I'm here today to ask, you know, is there a gym that's better decorated and bigger than this? Especially in the vicinity of fishing net cafes or tenda department offices. ”

“Oh, yes, near Ming Yun Shan. ”

Goli stunned for a moment: “Mr. Pei, do you want to study or..."

Pei Qian smiled slightly: “Of course we have to open a branch! ”

The fruit is sincerely lost.

Huh?

There aren't many students in this gym right now, so you can't even make a dime in losses, so you have to open a branch?

Besides, according to President Pei, there's more than one?

Guo Licheng hastily said: "Mr. Pei, think twice! ”

As soon as Pei Qian raised his hand and told him to stop: “I've thought twice about it, just give me the list of suitable gyms, I'll arrange someone to talk to to to see how many are willing to transfer. ”

“Then I'm going to have to ask you to continue preparing fitness equipment, hiring, etc for the branch. ”

Guo Licheng opened his mouth and wanted to persuade him again, but seeing that President Pei's attitude was so resolute, he had to nod his head: “Yes, Mr. Pei, I understand. ”

“Uh… General Pei, what did you just say about the site selection rules? ”

Pei Qian repeated: “This batch will open three to five branches. Some gyms are definitely reluctant to transfer, so try to give me ten addresses. One of them must be near Mingyun Mountain Village, and the others must also be near Fishnet Cafe or other business office locations in Tenta. ”

This selection is intended, on the one hand, to better guarantee the availability of fitness meals and, on the other hand, to provide benefits to employees.

Pei Qian never forgot to host two projects, gym and lazy apartment, on the one hand to lose money and on the other to provide more benefits to employees.

It's twice as happy not to make money and then use your own wool for employee welfare.

The observation period of this flagship store has come to an end, and the situation is optimistic at present, although there are some customers, it is far from profitable.

That being the case, you can almost keep putting in your own employees.

As to why should it be sequentially and in installments?

Because of the system's limitations in this regard, whether it is a lazy apartment or a shared gym, providing benefits to employees must be kept within certain limits.

For example, a lazy apartment, if there are 100 rooms, only 30 of them can be used as staff dormitories.

Restaurants and gyms are the same, and can be used as employee benefits, but there is a premise that other consumers must be assured that they can also use them, that they cannot be exclusively monopolized by employee benefits, and that this proportion is severely limited.

So, in order to have a fitness plan for all employees, Pei Qian has to run many more gyms.

Fortunately, as long as this thing loses money, Bae always has enough motivation!
