Chapter 123: Chapter 106 Straight Away Put It On_2
He didn’t know if this photo-taking and check-in trend could really take off, but if it did, it would definitely bring in a pretty penny!
You see, club mberships are an important way for stores to make a quick return on investnt!
Besides, so custors co in groups.
Just now, four girls ca in, seemingly dorm mates swarming out together.
After discussing for a bit, they chose to — pool funds for a card!
This way, buying Ga Coins is more cost-effective, and later on they can take turns holding the exquisitely beautiful mbership card to take photos at the store’s entrance.
The nature of this was sowhat like the group-buying trend among wannabe socialites.
But not quite the sa.
However, this was exactly the effect Cheng Zhu was going for.
When opening a trendy store, don’t just focus on being posh and making the threshold too high.
You want to et the girls’ needs for taking photos as much as possible. Once they’ve taken beautiful photos, they’ll naturally post them on various social dia platforms, which is equivalent to helping you promote for free.
At the sa ti, it won’t be too hard on our male compatriots’ wallets since these claw machine arcades often have a lot of couple custors.
“Why make it tough for n?” that’s what Cheng Zhu thought to himself.
“Many business owners are well aware that when couples co in, n tend to not let their won leave empty-handed for reasons such as saving face and will probably catch one or two prizes. So they set the machines to be stingy and the chances extrely low.”
“I don’t really care, I’m all about the volu.”
“Win by foot traffic.” Cheng Zhu had this in mind early on.
He had already ntioned before that the claw machines in his store have a much higher success rate than normal arcades.
This way, for the average guy, it feels more worthwhile, and they can keep their girlfriends happy.
And for the jerks, it lets them believe in a delightful misunderstanding — that they are masters at claw machines!
Okay then, this store can be my chick-magnet shrine!
Don’t doubt it, so jerks would indeed bring different girls to “Youu Co to Play” in a very short ti span to show off and win the girls’ favor.
“Do I not understand jerks?”
“You bunch of good-for-nothings, if I don’t take your money, whose should I take?”
I provide the opportunity for you to show off, and of course you should pay , that’s fair.
Don’t tell you really think you’re a claw machine master?
…
…
By afternoon, “Youu Co to Play” was bustling to the point of overcrowding.
No way around it, the custor retention rate was high.
Look, as a trendy photo spot, many girls would naturally want to head to those photo spots after playing the claw machines, right?
That ans custors would end up spending more ti in the store.
Thus, the store was always bursting with activity!
Cheng Zhu glanced over his shop and noticed that among the three roommates, Dong Dong was the biggest sycophant.
Just now, he actively helped two girls open the claw machine’s glass door, rearranged the dolls inside, and placed them in an easier position to grab.
This was indeed the task Cheng Zhu had assigned, but goddamn, were you looking down on people?
You only help the pretty ones! Shalessly seeking attention!
The girls gave him a polite smile and said, “Thanks, handso.”
Those four simple words were enough to make him beam idiotically.
As for Liu Feng, he was relatively more pragmatic.
He was genuinely helpful and may have had his own agenda, but definitely not as single-mindedly selfish as Dong Dong.
As for Zheng Qingfeng, his main act was being aloof.
While Dong Dong and Liu Feng could be seen smiling and asking the girls, “Need help?”
This cool and detached fatty hardly said a word and just silently got on with his work.
Oddly enough, because he naturally looked older, many people called him “Boss!”
The other employees all looked quite young; only he looked almost forty, so people naturally mistook him for the boss, assuming the others were the workers.
This made the usually tight-lipped Zheng Qingfeng have to clarify, “The boss is at the front desk.”
This simple statent would often elicit a response like “Ah! That handso guy is the boss?”
“The boss is kind of handso!”
“That… does your boss have a girlfriend?”
This led Zheng Qingfeng to gradually realize, “Even if we’re just here to help, it seems girls are out of our league.”
First, you’ve got to be handso.
Otherwise, they’ll just see you as an ordinary worker.
You’re just a service worker, do you really expect girls to actively add your WeChat?
Damn, this superficial world! When will we hidden gems be recognized!
At this mont, Cheng Zhu had already added 5 girls on his work WeChat.
To put it frankly, one of them was quite attractive, in the sa league as the dancing Yao Yina.
But in his eyes now, these moderately pretty girls were just suitable tools for photo-taking.
But you don’t sign up for a mbership card and just drool over my body – that’s a bit insincere, isn’t it!
“Wang Wei, co and cover for ,” Cheng Zhu called the staff girl to the front desk.
He had been taking money and dispensing Ga Coins to custors, and the sound of coins rattling had been constant; his ears were starting to object.
Cheng Zhu went outside the shop, needing to catch his breath, and also to have a smoke.
But there were also many girls taking pictures at the entrance, making him walk further away to smoke, lest his stylish self accidentally photo-bomb them and inadvertently create a few s.
Coincidentally, “Elegant Weirdo” Pei Yan, still in his white shirt, happened to pass by pretending to observe the business at “Youu Co to Play.”
Holy moly, the business was so booming it was affecting traffic!
With so many girls taking pictures at the shop entrance, he had to detour around them to avoid appearing in their shots.
“This must amount to several thousand in turnover for the day.”
“It’s just the opening, it’s normal for business to be good,” Pei Yan thought to himself.
He stood at the shop entrance, craning his neck to peer inside for a long ti.
He didn’t see Shen Qingning or Lin Lu, nor Cheng Zhu.
Last night, Pei Yan had already noticed the advertisent post on the university bulletin board. Seeing the traditionally aloof Shen Qingning actually helping with the photo shoot and promotion, he felt a bit uneasy.
Pei Yan was even considering whether to contact the board’s moderator to have his advertisent removed.
Cheng Zhu, who was smoking in a corner from a distance, had already noticed him.
“Look at Elegant Weirdo sporting a slick pomade under the sun, shining bright!” he thought to himself.
“Vice Chairman Pei!” Cheng Zhu, holding his cigarette from a distance, suddenly called out, startling Pei Yan.
Pei Yan had no choice but to walk over and greet him, “Cheng, we et again.”
“Here to play?” Cheng Zhu asked.
“No, just happened to pass by, as you know, our student council’s managent is quite concerned about the entrepreneurial projects of regular college students.” Pei Yan had no intention of patronizing the place.
“Oh, is that so? I was actually thinking of giving you a few coins,” Cheng Zhu responded nonchalantly upon hearing he wasn’t there to play.
“No need for such politeness,” Pei Yan could feel his insincerity but, being ever graceful and gentlemanly, he made a courteous remark, “I see business is booming.”
He continued, “There was another small arcade outside school before, also a project closely watched by our student council’s managent. If I rember correctly, that place made over 8000 on its first day.”
“Your shop’s smaller, but I reckon it should make a few thousand in a day too, right?”
Looking at him, Cheng Zhu smiled.
He snuffed out his cigarette on the trash can and said, “From morning until now in the afternoon, we’ve indeed only made a few thousand. I just glanced at the tally before coming out, barely 7800.”
“But with the ti it took for a smoke, I guess it’s probably broken 8000 now. So, it’s alright!”
