Rebirth of the Entrepreneurship Era

At noon the next day, everyone ate a meal together at a restaurant outside the school, and then went to the alley that was promising before Xu Yiyang.

Although it is not a weekend today, this lane is still lively.

Mainly because it is not far from China Overseas and Tongji.

The two schools are very close to each other, just over two kilometers away, and this alley is right in the middle of the two schools. It takes about 10 minutes to walk, and there are two stops by bus.

As the overall consumption ability of college students is still not good, this kind of messy messy house, on the contrary, it is easier to hatch the consumption place that college students love.

Because it does not rely on the road, the rent is relatively cheap. There are many businesses in it. There are small clothing stores, small restaurants, small hotels, barber shops, audio-visual stores, book stores, two-name supply stores, game rooms, and of course Internet cafes.

However, the Internet cafe inside was small in size. Xu Yiyang went in and took a look. There were less than 20 machines in total, and the environment inside was very harsh and smoky.

Internet cafes like this are basically impossible to become their competitors.

It is basically college students who stroll here at noon. It seems that it has become the first choice for student consumption.

In this alley, almost all self-built houses along the street are available. There are two floors, and three or four floors. The sizes are also different.

Although it is relatively biased here, Xu Yiyang knows that there is no need to worry about the biased position of opening an Internet cafe!

Even if you hide in the horned owl, someone will find it.

Therefore, in the early stage, there is no need for the expensive facade that relies on the road.

Make a fortune in Xiao Nong Tang, make enough money, and then kill it from Xiao Nong Tang. Perfect.

Xu Yiyang calculated the funds. If you invest 700,000, 600,000 will be used to purchase hardware, and the remaining 100,000 will be used for rent and simple decoration. It should not be a problem.

With 600,000 pieces of hardware, removing network equipment, tables and chairs, bar counters, and shelves, it should be possible to set up about 80 computers.

However, a certain amount of upgrade space must be reserved, so Xu Yiyang decided to rent a larger facade.

Xu Yiyang took you around and looked at a small double-storey building. Upstairs and downstairs are each a hall with an actual area of ​​more than one hundred square meters, with two more than ten square meters of rooms and a bathroom.

This apartment type is very satisfying to Xu Yiyang. The lobby, bar counter and sixty to seventy computers are not a big problem. Two small rooms next to each other can also set up ten units. In this case, the first floor is enough.

The second floor can be left empty, and when there is a profit, new machines will be added every month to make the most of the upper floors.

Others are totally based on Xu Yiyang's opinion, so what he said is what he said, yes, everyone also feels good.

The landlord, a grandfather in his fifties, said that the house was built by his own family. The last tenant set up a movie theater of his choice. A TV, a VCD, and a mini-video room with a small sofa. The owner has a large number of pirated discs. The customer came to select the films first, and then took the discs to watch.

It sounds low, but in this era, it is a popular place for boys and girls to date and fall in love.

Xu Yiyang was curious as to why the other side would not do such a hot business.

As a result, the old man told him that he was bigger now, and he rented a small courtyard directly in the alley, but also offered more options, and also had a TV room and VCD hour room. College students came to patronize.

Xu Yiyang took it.

It seems that young couples make the best money.

Zhao Xin couldn't help but say, "Well, let's do this too! A TV or a VCD is definitely much cheaper than a computer."

Xu Yiyang waved his hand: "The entertainment provided by this model is too single, or it will be completely eliminated in a few years."

After all, Xu Yiyang started talking to the old man about the price.

The old man asked for a price of 8,000 a month, bet one pays three, the price is a bit high.

Xu Yiyang made a counter-offer of 6,000 yuan, paid one for six yuan, signed the contract for three years, did not increase rent for the first two years, and rose 15 points in the third year.

According to Xu Yiyang's idea, I worked here for two years at most, and definitely moved out of the alley within two years.

After talking to the landlord, Xu Yiyang directly signed the contract with the grandfather, paid 42,000 yuan, and then got the key to the door.

Although the house is a bit old, the whole is still clean and tidy. Xu Yiyang thought that the decoration of the Internet cafe is similar to that of a training institution. It does not need to be fancy, but only clean and bright.

To find a worker, first brush a large white wall, replace the rolling door at the door with a floor-to-ceiling glass door, and install more fluorescent tubes to make the whole room look bright and bright, basically OK.

Then there are air conditioners, wall-mounted shaking fans, and ventilating fans.

The weather in China Sea is hot in summer and cold in winter. Without air conditioning, the customer experience is very poor.

In the early years, many Internet cafes were particularly provincial. They were reluctant to install air conditioners, and they were also reluctant to turn on air conditioners. Generally, Internet cafes like this will not last long.

In addition, a lot of fire protection equipment has to be purchased just in case.

There are also surveillance cameras installed outside the door and indoors. Although few Internet cafes do this this year, Xu Yiyang feels that safety must be given top priority.

Internet cafes are the easiest to lose things. It is easy to lose mobile phones inside. It is easy to lose bicycles outside. Surveillance cameras can also improve the overall security level of Internet cafes. It is even more assured for guests.

At this time, Chen Meng said to Xu Yiyang, "Brother Xu, can you name your Internet cafe?"

Xu Yiyang thought about it and said, "This is going to cross the century without seeing it. Otherwise, let's give the Internet cafe a name with a period characteristic. It's called the New Century Internet Cafe."

Everyone has no opinion on this.

Zhao Xin asked him: "Lao Xu, is the Internet cafe's ID easy to handle?"

"Easy to handle," Xu Yiyang said, "I will find an ox at that time and it should be easy to resolve."

At present, there are no restrictions or controls on Internet cafes, and the qualification approval of Internet cafes is not difficult.

In fact, until the 2002 Lanjiu incident, the management of Internet cafes was very loose, and the required credentials were very simple.

Xu Yiyang went to the industry and commerce to find a lot of oxen, chose the most reliable one, and entrusted the other party with all matters related to the application of the permit.

These years, the ox is almost omnipotent.

Not to mention a business certificate, as long as you give enough money to go to Shenzhen and even a large certificate such as a foreign trade certificate, you can find a scalper.

But the cattle like the latter are all among the cattle with a strong relationship.

Then, Xu Yiyang gave everyone a job on the spot.

He said to everyone: "We have a lot of work to do next. At noon tomorrow, I am going to go to the electronic city to find a reliable machine shop, and then order 90 computers, computer desks, computer chairs and other The network equipment should be able to be fixed in the electronic city, and the remaining things need to be divided. "

Zhao Xin hurriedly said, "Old Xu, you just tell us and everyone will listen to you."

Xu Yiyang said, "Xin brother, you will take a trip to the Appliance City tomorrow at noon. First, install ten wall-mounted shaking fans on the first floor, eight in the outside hall, one in each of the two rooms, and six water dispensers. Four outside, one in each of the two rooms, four air conditioners in addition, two high-powered vertical air conditioners in the hall, two one and a half horse-mounted air conditioners in the two cabins, and ventilation equipment. With a square exhaust fan, each window must be installed with a higher power, otherwise the air will be too poor when the guests smoke inside. "

Zhao Xin asked, "Is it cheaper to buy used air conditioners?"

Xu Yiyang waved his hand: "You never know how dirty the second-hand air conditioner is, and how big the odor is. Many of the air conditioners will turn yellow after a few years. You can tell at a glance that they are old goods. The money spent on the surface We ca n’t save, if it ’s all second-hand air conditioners, the experience for the guests is definitely bad. ”

"I understand!"

Xu Yiyang went on to say: "Jun Nan, you will contact the landlord tomorrow. He knows a reliable electrician. Let him come over and check the circuit for us. Remove any hidden dangers. Upgrade where necessary. Wires and air switches must be selected. , Find another one who brushes the wall, and reprocess all the walls. "

"Okay Xu."

"Xiao Meng, you will go to Furniture City tomorrow and order a larger bar, a row of glass cabinets, a row of cabinets placed against the wall, and buy a few more simple fabric sofas, put them against the wall, and buy another Small safe. "

"Okay Xu."

"Yiming, you will go to the Lighting City tomorrow and install six rows of fluorescent tubes outside, one row inside, choose a brighter one, and then let the electrician install it for us."

"Okay Xu."

Yiyang finally looked at Gu Peng and said, "Forget about love, how can you find a fire extinguisher that sells four kilograms of dry powder fire extinguisher tomorrow, buy me thirty and twenty kilograms of trolley fire extinguishers for me? There are three to four kilograms of carbon dioxide fire extinguishers. Give me ten. "

"Hmm ..." Gu Peng, who was drinking water, took a sip and coughed for a long time before he was surprised and said, "Xu Brother, sure to buy so many? Buy more than forty fire extinguishers ????"

Xu Yiyang nodded and said, "Yes, forty-four!"

Everyone was stupid.

They can't figure out what to do with so many fire extinguishers in an Internet cafe?

But Xu Yiyang felt that fire extinguishers were essential.

Doing business at this stage is far from the rigorous auditing of future generations. In a few years, almost all physical businesses have to undergo rigorous fire auditing to avoid fires to the greatest extent. These are not so particular now.

80% of Internet cafes in the country may not even have two cans of fire extinguishers.

However, Xu Yiyang hopes to prepare more. He can open an Internet cafe in the self-built house in this alley. There is no way to install a complete set of sprinkler fire extinguishing equipment.

Moreover, because he knew the tragic consequences of the Lanjisu incident and the bad effects it had on the whole country, Xu Yiyang now runs an Internet cafe and dare to save any money, but he definitely dare not save a penny on safety, especially fire protection.

Dry powder fire extinguishers are actually not expensive. Four kilograms will not exceed one hundred dollars. Buying thirty will cost three thousand dollars, and twenty kilograms will cost three or four hundred.

So many dry powder fire extinguishers, except for fires caused by oil and chemical materials, can basically cope.

Internet cafes actually do n’t have a lot of combustibles except electrical circuits and electronic equipment. Xu Yiyang is not going to use flammable carpets and other decorations, so dry powder fire extinguishers are basically enough.

As for the carbon dioxide fire extinguisher, the price is slightly more expensive. A small tank may cost two to three hundred dollars. It is mainly used to extinguish electronic equipment and valuables. If a computer fire occurs, using a carbon dioxide fire extinguisher can minimize the fire. Damage to the computer itself.

By then, so many fire extinguishers can basically sit back and relax.
