The leisurely life of rebirth

Chapter 68 Swimming Pool Inventory

Yesterday was the first day of learning the flute. I traveled around and learned what a flute is, how many types of flute there are, and basic fingering and blowing techniques.

I was very interested in learning at the beginning, but the time passed in the blink of an eye.

In Sun Li's words, if you practice hard, you will definitely be able to produce a piece of music in a month. However, if you want to be able to play skillfully in the future, you still need to practice more.

No matter what, everything is difficult at the beginning. Once you take the first step, you can proceed step by step.

Traveling around has nothing but perseverance and self-discipline, otherwise it would be impossible. I used to learn breaststroke and freestyle by myself with videos and textbooks.In the winter, I go to the swimming pool to swim.

As summer passes, so does the swimming season, and the swimming pools become less busy.Wang Ping and Wang Fangfang found Zhou You together to discuss the matter.

The three of them gathered at the swimming pool. There were few people around and they could still swim for a while.

Under Wang Fangfang's careful teaching, I can now swim freely in freestyle swimming around the world, and I can basically say that I know how to freestyle. The rest is long-term practice, and there is no good way.

When I saw the two of them again this time, they were no longer as excited as before and became more calm.It seems that after this summer vacation, I have indeed grown a lot.

Wang Ping: "So far, our total income is about 300 million, including membership card processing. Most of them are quarterly cards and half-year cards. There are also a small number of people who are good at playing since last year. It’s an annual card”

Wang Fangfang: "There haven't been too many people since last time. The main reason is that there are more swimming training projects. Apart from me and Brother Ping, we also hired four additional coaches, two lifeguards and two cleaners. The coaches follow the routine It’s a basic salary plus commission.”

Wang Ping: "Brother You also knows that most of our coaches are from the provincial team and are our former teammates, so the commissions are relatively high, accounting for about [-]% of the class fees."

Zhou You: "This is what it should be. Coaches earn hard-earned money. It's not easy to soak in the water every day in the summer. It's okay to pay more. Now is the stage of accumulating reputation."

Wang Fangfang: "According to the original plan, Wang Ping and I will earn a monthly salary of 8000, and we will get a share when the time comes. Four coaches, each person will earn about 4, which is the income during the peak season. The lifeguard will earn 3 a month, and the cleaning staff will earn a monthly salary of 5000." 3000, plus the cost of water replacement and electricity, deducting the contracting fee of 20, the actual profit is about 200 million."

Wang Ping: "But this has not yet been calculated. From now to next summer, the operating expenses will be enough for me to serve as a coach. There will not be many students. There will be one for cleaning and one for lifeguards. The water in the pool will be changed and disinfected. The constant temperature is Da Tou, based on this rough calculation, the operating expenses are about 3 yuan a month, and it will last for at least 9 months, calculated as 30 yuan."

Zhou You: "In actual calculation, it's only a profit of more than 100 million? But it's not bad. At least you two have something to do."

Wang Fangfang: "Brother You, we are very satisfied with this. I didn't expect to earn so much. We can still get wages, which is considered a high salary."

Wang Ping: "Yes, my salary is more now than before, and I don't have to soak in the water every day. I am content, but there are indeed more people this year than before. There were not so many people before."

Zhou You: "Don't worry, the number of swimmers will gradually increase in the future, because Luzhou's population is increasing year by year, and those who increase are those with spending power."

According to the plan, they will contract one or two more swimming pools this year. Originally, Wang Ping was going to expand before the summer vacation, but was blocked by Zhou You. Now it can start. "What do you teammates think? The peak season is over. The swimming coach who came here to make money depends on the peak season. What will he do with the rest of the time?" Zhou You looked at them and asked. After all, this can show the character. Zhou You doesn't want to raise a bunch of white-eyed wolves. He is not a pure businessman.

Wang Ping sighed and said helplessly: "This is also the helpless part of our industry. The summer peak season is too short. Those who have the connections go to the south to find a place, while those who have no options work other part-time jobs, or get a basic salary in a big place."

"We want to open a branch to give everyone a way out, otherwise the off-season will be too difficult, and once high-end coaches are lost, it will be difficult to come back, especially female coaches," Wang Fangfang said immediately
To be honest, Zhou You didn't expect that he would be able to make money at the first swimming pool. He originally thought that he would not lose money, but it can only be said to be a coincidence.

The first success also gave them the confidence to move into high-end chains in the future.

Zhou You thought for a while and said, "That's what I think. You think it's feasible. Since they are all your teammates, they must all be high-end talents in the swimming world. It took a lot of effort to get here. It's a pity to let them go."

"While the peak season is over, you slowly find some high-end hotels and continue to negotiate with them. When negotiating, refer to our contracting standards and focus on the benefits that our contracting can bring to them and our high-end resources. These are all ready-made case”

"Let them run it by themselves, which will basically result in losses and take up a lot of manpower and material resources. By then, all of your teammates will be scattered to various stores. No matter how bad a swimming pool is, it can at least support one coach."

Wang Ping and Wang Fangfang were actually quite happy to see Zhou You say this. After all, he was the major shareholder. If he didn't agree, they didn't have the confidence to do it.In the swimming pool industry, no matter how easy it is to make money now, it is also very easy to lose money.

If you don’t get started in the summer and don’t gather enough capital, it will be difficult to survive the winter.

"Okay, I think so too, but do you have any recommended hotels or places so that we can feel confident?" Wang Ping asked Zhou You for advice.

Zhouyou knows which area will be better in the future. There must be enough high-end consumer population around high-end swimming pools, otherwise it will not be able to support it at all.

The Government Affairs District must be deployed first, and the High-tech Zone and Baohe District should also be looked at.

"You should focus on finding swimming pools in high-end hotels such as the Government Affairs District, High-tech Zone and Baohe District. If there are old swimming pools nearby, don't go there for the time being. Some of them are opened by some of your senior brothers and sisters. They have been open for many years. You can't go there." There is no competitive advantage," Zhou You warned.
Traveling around is not in a hurry anyway. This kind of thing can be done before the New Year. Besides, they are all within this swimming circle, so it is relatively simple to find these resources.

In the end, Zhou You decided to wait and see how much the contract cost would be. If there was still a balance after the contract was completed, then he would give them two dividends during the Chinese New Year.In any case, after working hard for a year, it would be really embarrassing if I didn’t get any money.

They both beamed after hearing this. Although the overall money was not much, they could at least share tens of thousands of dollars.

The most important thing is that the job is relatively stable, unlike before where I made money today but don’t know what I will do tomorrow.

When things are done gradually, the dividends will increase.
