Reborn Game Producer

After ordering a few bottles of beer and drinking for a while, Qian Xiaotian's eyes drifted to the stage in the distance and asked casually: "How is the development of the Internet cafe?"

Zhao Gang took a sip of wine and replied in a rather happy voice: "It's very good. The two Internet cafes sell hundreds of thousands of dollars a month."

"Too little." Qian Xiaotian shook the cup, looked at the wine inside, and shook his head slightly.

"Ah, Brother Tian, ​​what's too little?" Zhao Gang asked in surprise.

Qian Xiaotian did not answer, but asked again: "What do you think of the CS Internet Cafe Competition and the online competition on the QQ Battle Platform held previously?"

Li Yifan replied: "The response has been very good, and I can see that it is very exciting."

"I think there will be a national CS competition soon."

Li Yifan thought for a while and asked: "Brother Tian, ​​you mean to hold Internet cafe competitions across the country."

Qian Xiaotian nodded: "Yes or no, I want to use Internet cafes across the country as a medium to select elite talents, and finally bring the most powerful ones together to participate in the competition."

"This is not easy. The quality of Internet cafe machines varies. It is difficult to ensure that Internet cafes from all over the country can cooperate, and fairness is also an issue."

"You are right, these are all obstacles, so it can only be truly realized by cooperating with our own Internet cafe, just according to Century Tianyu's game hosting method." Qian Xiaotian nodded slightly and said.

Li Yifan understood what Qian Xiaotian meant, "In this case, the development of our Internet cafes will indeed be unable to keep up. Brother Tian, ​​according to your plan, we must open Century Tianyu all over the country."

"Yes, so I thought of a new development method, self-operated and franchised mixed chain stores."

Then Qian Xiaotian explained to Li Yifan and others the advantages of self-operated mixed chain stores that he had told his father Qian Zhenghua at that time. He did not ask them to understand, as long as they knew what was going on.

"Brother Tian, ​​what should we do now?" Li Yifan knew that Qian Xiaotian must have thought about it.

"Recruit franchisees, expand the franchise, collect funds, and then open direct-operated stores in major cities." Qian Xiaotian said slowly while looking at Li Yifan and the others with a smile on his face.

"People can open Internet cafes, so why should they spend money to join us?" Li Yifan asked.

Qian Xiaotian knew that they would definitely have such questions. Nowadays, the threshold for opening an Internet cafe is relatively low, as long as you have money.

"Because we have an advantage, our play bar management system is very advanced. Even if other Internet cafes want to allow us to open one, it will cost at least 20,000 to 30,000 yuan. Do you think it is more cost-effective to join or do it yourself? Moreover, we can also provide guidance."

Decoration, providing customized computers at low cost, planning operational activities, etc.”

Hearing Qian Xiaotian mention the Internet cafe management system, Zhao Gang said excitedly: "That's right, Brother Tian, ​​the system you made is so easy to use. Many Internet cafes have contacted us and want to buy our management system. We have this system."

The monthly labor expenses can be saved at least in half. But we didn’t agree to it without your permission, Brother Tian.”

Qian Xiaotian picked up the glass and clinked it with a few, drank it down in one gulp, and continued with a smile: "And I can represent the official side of Counter-Strike and own the copyright. I can designate the Century Tianyu brand as an official cooperative Internet cafe, specifically for Counter-Strike."

Responsible for major events, do you think they are willing to join such a franchise store?" Copyright management in this world is very strict. Qian Xiaotian's biggest advantage is that he has the right to speak in CS. This alone is ahead of any other Internet cafe.

Li Yifan looked happy and poured beer for Qian Xiaotian, "Brother Tian, ​​I heard that joining the chain is indeed very promising. The franchise fee is not expensive, let alone 20,000 to 30,000, 100,000 is not expensive."

"Yes, we will set a lower price in the early stage. We will set four levels of franchise fees according to key cities, provincial capital cities, prefecture-level cities, and county-level cities. When the franchise reaches a certain scale, we will increase the franchise threshold. And there are other franchise fees.

condition."

Sun Yong asked doubtfully: "What other conditions are there?"

"We must set up several franchise thresholds to avoid affecting the brand value. For example, the start-up capital must be 1 million, there must be a place of more than 200 square meters, within the business district, and there are no primary or secondary schools within 200 meters nearby. We must follow our

We are required to organize and plan activities, etc. Only when these conditions are met, we will conduct on-site inspections, review qualifications, sign a contract, and then guide the opening."

The biggest fear of franchise chains is that franchisees have uneven qualifications and poor management, which will ruin their brand, so raising the threshold is also an effective method.

"Okay, Brother Tian, ​​I'll do as you say." Li Yifan agreed.

"We already have the trademark, now we just need to recruit people and set up a headquarters to operate it as a company."

Qian Xiaotian and a few people discussed the specific operation methods in detail, and the rest was up to them to operate. At the beginning, they agreed that they would only be responsible for making suggestions, and the three of them would implement them.

The discussion lasted until almost 1 o'clock in the morning before the specific details were finalized. Qian Xiaotian went back to provide a detailed planning plan, and several people implemented it as soon as possible.

In the next few days, Qian Xiaotian and Li Yifan established Century Tianyu Network Development Co., Ltd. During this period, they also made a lot of money, so they each invested a total of two million more in proportion.

I rented a small office building and the company was officially put into operation.

The headquarters company does not need to be too large in the early stage. It just needs to hire some people to take charge of each link. Qian Xiaotian spent thousands of dollars to place advertisements in local newspapers and printed many leaflets and posters looking for franchisees.

In addition, Qian Xiaotian also built a Century Tianyu franchise website and advertised on some forums, portals, and search engines. Then he can wait for franchisees to come to his door.

Unexpectedly, in just the past few days, there have been more than a dozen potential franchisees who meet the requirements, and almost all of them are locals from Shanghai.

In fact, this is because Century Tianyu Internet Cafe has gained a reputation in Shanghai through the Counter-Strike Internet Cafe Competition, and has a very good reputation among consumers. Seeing that the Internet cafe is full every day and making money every day, many people are jealous and envious.

When I heard that it was possible to join, and the threshold was not high, I thought, "Why are you hesitating? Just join as soon as possible."

You must know that franchise stores are protected by regions. If you open one here, I can only open it in another region. According to Qian Xiaotian, this is called avoiding involution.

Next, Li Yifan and others were busy going around, and some of the people they recruited were not enough. He personally took charge of on-the-spot inspections of Magic City and surrounding areas. In less than a week, Magic City had reviewed and approved dozens of Internet cafes with franchise qualifications.

, there are also a few from other places.

Magic City is a key city, and the franchise fee is 100,000 yuan, which sounds like a lot. Many families may not have that much savings now, but those who can open an Internet cafe in Magic City often have to invest tens or even millions. Compared with

In terms of income, these franchise fees are not particularly high.

In this way, the franchised Internet cafe chain began to develop in an intensive manner.
