I am a super cop

Chapter 1618 Business Banquet
The wedding scene.

Zhao Liwen smiled and asked Gu Chen tentatively: "Then what do you think is our perspective of returning to Yuantian?"

"You may have already considered the future from your point of view, because from what you just said, your 'Guiyuan Tianju' brand has surpassed the functions of many homestays, and has even continuously optimized the functions of homestays."

Gu Chen pondered for a few seconds, and then said: "And when that time really comes, I think we should think about the meaning of Guiyuan Tianju's existence?"

"Our cities and towns solve the problem of material reproduction and are guided by productivity, that is, work for living."

"In fact, most people's energy is bound by work, and the village solves the problem of human reproduction."

"Guided by vitality, everything I do is around life."

"And production is subject to life, everything revolves around people..."

Gu Chen narrated his opinions seriously, and Zhao Liwen listened carefully.

But Lu Weiwei was a little dazed, feeling that the things Gu Chen and Zhao Liwen discussed were too profound, and it seemed difficult for her to understand.

Especially the relationship between productivity, just these things, I am confused.

But Zhao Liwen seemed to understand Gu Chen's narration, her eyes fixed on Gu Chen motionless.

After Gu Chen finished speaking, Zhao Liwen clapped her hands and applauded: "Officer Gu, what you said is indeed very insightful, and you also talked about the core issue of our 'Guiyuan Tianju' brand."

"Actually speaking of this, what is the meaning of Guiyuan Tianju's existence? In fact, it is very clear that it is to make people pay more attention to physical rest and spiritual growth."

"So... So, what exactly is Guiyuan Tianju? Is it a village?" Lu Weiwei asked a little confused.

Zhao Liwen nodded silently, and continued to add: "What is Guiyuan Tianju? It is not only a village, but also a flower god dojo, a dojo for restoring vitality."

"Guiyuan Tianju is a product of continuous evolution, from the original hotel with service as one, and then into a homestay resort with space as one."

"In the end it evolved into the current village, with the energy field as one."

After a pause, Zhao Liwen also thought about it and said, "Actually, if we look at it from a business perspective, it's not so much a hotel as a content company."

"Content company? Homestay can also become a content company?" Lu Weiwei didn't know much about the specific operation of the Guiyuan Tianju brand, so she couldn't understand it well in Zhao Liwen's narration.

This also made Zhao Liwen realize that brand promotion still needs a long way to go, but it doesn't matter: "Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't understand now. After all, most people come to us to live in garden fields to spend money and relax their minds."

"But in fact, we have to be very clear about what we are doing? We are a content company."

Seeing the other wedding car drivers at the dining table stunned, Zhao Liwen also knew that these people could not understand the profound meaning of her brand at all, so she continued to introduce to Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei:
"Like the Guiyuan Residential Residential Village we are building in Jiangnan City, there are more than 90 rooms, and 70% of the revenue structure in the early stage comes from guest rooms."

"And now, a big leap has been made, accounting for 433."

"433?" Lu Weiwei frowned slightly, and asked curiously, "Did the proportion of accommodation drop to 4%?"

"It can be understood in this way." Zhao Liwen smiled slightly, and continued to explain: "40% of this is from guest rooms, 30% is from catering, and 30% is from activities and other cultural creations."

"Behind all these revenues is our complete set of business logic, with beauty as the core, and we have also planned 5 beauty-based business formats."

Pulling up her fingers, Zhao Liwen gestured to Gu Chen and the others and said, "It's like food, beauty, beauty, beauty, beauty, and beauty."

"Corresponding to catering, courses, cultural creation, accommodation and lifestyle respectively."

"For example, we once hosted a team before. After one event, the revenue was 37."

"Of which, 6 yuan is for catering, 11 yuan is for event design, material construction, etc., and the other 20 yuan is for promotion and video production."

"So taking this event as an example, in fact, all the things we do in the early stage, on-site, and post-stage have nothing to do with accommodation. This can also show that we are a veritable content company."

"Oh my god, can a homestay still be played like this?" Lu Weiwei's original understanding of a homestay was a simple country accommodation.

But after communicating with Zhao Liwen, Lu Weiwei suddenly felt that she didn't understand what a homestay was at all.

Can the homestay brand achieve this level, it can be seen that Zhao Liwen is indeed an expert in this field.

Being able to sit with Zhao Liwen to communicate and learn, I feel that I can also broaden my horizons.

But Lu Weiwei felt that it was difficult for her to comprehend the state that Zhao Liwen mentioned. Perhaps it was best to be a quiet consumer.

But Gu Chen is different. He seems to be able to understand the connotation of Zhao Liwen's homestay brand, especially what the future target positioning of Zhao Liwen's homestay brand is.

In my opinion, this really requires a high vision and comprehension ability.

Gu Chen listened to Zhao Liwen's self-brand introduction, and asked her curiously: "Your new cultural and creative brand, catering is a big part. Do you usually use local materials?"

"You mean the ingredients?" Zhao Liwen asked.

Gu Chen nodded silently: "For example, the hospitality team, catering, fruits and vegetables, etc., must be different from those in the city."

"That's for sure." Seeing that Gu Chen is the first young guy who can talk to a profound level, Zhao Liwen is still very happy to share the secret of wealth with him, so she couldn't help explaining:
"In addition to our own construction, we will also cooperate with other industries. For example, our breakfast fruit is cooperated with brand fruit merchants."

"In fact, our entire organizational structure of Guiyuan Tianju is also different from many hotels and homestays. From top to bottom, the content gene is revealed in the bones."

"To make this life more fulfilling is our mission and the meaning of this village."

"So we are also looking for similar people, so we created a world called 'Gui Yuan Tian Dwelling'."

"And we put the perspective, in fact, into thinking 30 years later."

Listening to Zhao Liwen's eloquent narration, Lu Weiwei was dumbfounded, feeling that this is a woman who does great things, and couldn't help admiring her.

Seeing Zhao Liwen's voice fell, Lu Weiwei immediately picked up the goblet, and respectfully said to Zhao Liwen: "Sister Zhao, you are the most thoughtful entrepreneur I have ever met so far. I will use a drink instead of wine, and I propose a toast to you."

"Thank you."

Zhao Liwen picked up the goblet, touched it lightly with Lu Weiwei, and the two took a sip in a formal manner.

Then Zhao Liwen took out two VIP cards from her bag and handed them to Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei: "This is for you."

"What is this?" Lu Weiwei was at a loss, but when she saw the letters "VIP", she knew it was a good thing.

Zhao Liwen smiled and said: "This is the VIP diamond gold card of our 'Guiyuan Tianju' homestay village. With this card, you can enjoy a full set of services in any homestay village with our 'Guiyuan Tianju' brand all over the country. Consumption half price discount."

"It's such a bargain? Half price?" Upon hearing the result, Lu Weiwei was dumbfounded for a moment and said, "Then this is too expensive. We accept it. I'm sorry. After all, we also met by chance, so I will accept your gift?"

"Hold it, sister. I'm very friendly with you guys, especially Officer Gu. I think it would be great if you could join our 'Guiyuantianju' joint creation team."

"Sister Zhao thinks highly of me." Seeing Zhao Liwen being so polite, Gu Chen replied with a faint smile.

Everyone was chatting at the dinner table, and instantly looked like friends who hadn't seen each other for many years.

This made Ouyang Jun who was sitting on the side envious.

I feel that I have worked in "Guiyuan Tianju" for so long and suffered a work-related injury for the company, but now I am not the protagonist of concern, so I am inevitably a little disappointed.

Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei were also full at the wedding banquet. After confirming that they didn't need to use the vehicle, Gu Chen drove, took Lu Weiwei away from the scene, and drove directly to the house.

When I got home, it was already 2:20 in the afternoon.

Opening the door with a key, Gu Baichuan and Xiao Xiaofang were sitting on the sofa watching a soap opera, and Xiao Xiaofang let out a "giggle" laugh from time to time.

Hearing the opening of the door, Xiao Xiaofang glanced at it. After finding out that it was Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei, he smiled lightly and said, "Why did you two go to the banquet? I thought you two came over for lunch."

"I'm sorry, Auntie, Gu Chen's car was hit by someone by mistake and turned into a wedding car, and then their car broke down and needed to be repaired, so Gu Chen showed his willingness to help others."

Lu Weiwei changed into her slippers, and sat down beside Xiao Xiaofang enthusiastically.

Xiao Xiaofang grinned, and said indifferently: "Anyway, it's not a loss to have a banquet, but maybe we have to go out to eat again in the evening."

"Going out to eat at night? Don't you make it yourself at home?" Gu Chen changed his slippers and walked over to ask curiously.

Gu Baichuan replied: "That's how it is. The chamber of commerce invited us to Fuchun Hotel for dinner tonight. Your mother and I must go there. Family members can also bring them there."

"Is it a dinner party at the chamber of commerce?" Gu Chen knew that both his parents were from the chamber of commerce, so he naturally knew that there were many banquets for dinner parties every year.

But Gu Baichuan shook his head: "I'm not sure, I just said that this dinner was hosted by the Jiangnan City Internet Association and the City Tourism Association."

"I thought to myself, what does this have to do with us? But after all, the chamber of commerce said hello, and it would be shameful not to go, so simply, let's go to the Fuchun Hotel for dinner at night, so as not to have to do it at home."

"But." Hearing this, Lu Weiwei put her index fingers on her chest and pointed them together, and said a little embarrassedly: "But the chamber of commerce said it was bringing family members, and I'm an outsider. It's not good to go there for dinner, right? How about I Go out to eat with Gu Chen?"

"It's okay, it's okay, Weiwei is her own in Auntie's heart, what's there to be embarrassed about?"

Xiao Xiaofang didn't treat Lu Weiwei as an outsider, and insisted on taking Lu Weiwei with her.

Listening to Xiao Xiaofang's words, Lu Weiwei felt happy in her heart, and pretended to be reluctant: "Then... since Auntie has said so, then I should be respectful rather than obedient."

"That's right." Xiao Xiaofang clapped Lu Weiwei's hands, and said, "Anyway, the people from the association and chamber of commerce are paying the bill, and there is probably some project to discuss, so please let us go over and discuss it."

"I won't ask you to buy some cultural tourism products again?" Gu Chen poured two cups of hot water by the water dispenser, and handed one of them to Lu Weiwei.

Xiao Xiaofang grinned: "Never mind him, if we need the help of our non-staple food supermarket for cultural tourism products, we will sell some if we can sell them. Anyway, our supermarket sells quickly, so it is not difficult."

"Don't buy too much, there is still a lot of stock in the warehouse." Seeing that Xiao Xiaofang is so generous, Gu Baichuan hurriedly reminded him.

Sitting between the two of them, Gu Chen asked curiously, "What time do we go?"

"It's 5 o'clock. They said they will arrive at 5:30 p.m. It doesn't matter if we go later, it's just a formality." Xiao Xiaofang said.

Gu Chen silently nodded, expressing his understanding.

For the entire afternoon that followed, Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei stayed at home chatting with Gu Baichuan and Xiao Xiaofang, and watched a few episodes of family soap operas by the way.

The time passed by every minute and every second, and soon came to 5 o'clock in the afternoon.

Gu Baichuan glanced at the time on the wall, and reminded, "It's already 5 o'clock, we should start, and the drive will take half an hour."

"It's okay to go late. I'm really tired of socializing. It's boring to go early and have to chat with those people."

Xiao Xiaofang and Lu Weiwei still cuddled each other, leaning on the sofa and watching TV.

Gu Baichuan reminded: "It's not good to go late, when the time comes, everyone will be eating, and we will be brought into the venue by the waiter, and we still have to find a seat, and we haven't had to choose a seat yet."

"It's late, and the good dishes are almost eaten by others, so isn't it a waste of time?"

After all, with considerable experience, Gu Baichuan's principle is to neither arrive early nor leave late.

The timing of the meal should be just right.

Xiao Xiaofang was a little impatient, but what her husband Gu Baichuan said was fine, she glanced at Lu Weiwei who was snuggling beside her, and asked, "Weiwei, shall we go now?"

"Yes." Lu Weiwei nodded silently.

"Then let's go." Xiao Xiaofang said.

Upon hearing this, Lu Weiwei immediately got up from Xiao Xiaofang's side.

Gu Chen, who was sitting at the other end, also threw the leftovers of the apples into the trash can, and said, "Then I'll go and drive."

……

……

At 5:40 in the evening, Gu Chen drove Lu Weiwei, Gu Baichuan drove Xiao Xiaofang, and the two cars drove into the parking lot of Fuchun Hotel one after another.

Lu Weiwei looked at the many vehicles in the parking lot, and asked Gu Chen curiously: "Junior Brother Gu, do you often come to such occasions with your uncles and aunts?"

"It's not often. Most of the time, my uncles and aunts force me to come here." When Gu Chen mentioned this matter, he couldn't help but feel emotional.

At the beginning, my parents regarded me as a capital to show off, but whenever I was at home on vacation, my parents had to be dragged by my parents to participate in this kind of social activities.

But actually Gu Chen didn't like this kind of occasion.

But today is different, because Lu Weiwei is present today, so Gu Chen feels indifferent.

After parking the car, Gu Baichuan and Xiao Xiaofang also walked over from the other end, immediately met a few acquaintances, and immediately started chatting.

Gu Chen took Lu Weiwei to stand beside him, and also quietly listened to the nagging of the few people.

"Old Gu, I heard that today is the bureau of the Internet Association and the Tourism Association. It seems that they are going to discuss projects."

"Talk about the project? When did you come here to talk about the project? After all, people's meals are not free." Gu Baichuan has long been familiar with this kind of dinner.

A middle-aged aunt jokingly said: "There are quite a few people invited this time. People from many associations and many chambers of commerce have come. I feel that this time is very lively."

"Lively? I don't really like lively. Quiet is best. When I go in later, I will eat food quietly. They say theirs, and I eat mine."

Xiao Xiaofang was quite open-minded. She just came to the banquet to discuss the project. That was their business and had nothing to do with her.

Several people stood in place and chatted for a while. Since there were a lot of vehicles coming and going in and out of the parking lot, it was inconvenient for everyone to stay, so they could only walk into the hotel.

Under the guidance of the waitress at the door, they began to walk towards the banquet hall.

Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei followed closely behind and walked in together.

When they came to the entrance of the banquet hall, some men and women with work badges were registering the guests who were seated and handing out plastic bracelets.

And each bracelet has a different number.

Lu Weiwei had never participated in this kind of banquet, so she asked curiously: "What's the use of wearing this kind of bracelet?"

"Miss, this is for the convenience of our staff to identify whether you are a banquet guest."

"After all, when we go in and out of the banquet hall, we only recognize the bracelet but not the person." A young man in a formal suit said.

Lu Weiwei let out an "oh", feeling that it made sense.

But after all, it wasn't the first time Gu Chen came here, so he leaned closer to Lu Weiwei's ear and whispered: "It's mainly some guests, who will go out to the bathroom during the meal or something."

"It's hard for the staff to identify the guests, so they will wear plastic bracelets for everyone. This is a common way to attend banquets, and it also prevents some outsiders from sneaking into the venue to cheat for food and drink."

"In addition, the number of the bracelet can be used to participate in the lucky draw. But in this kind of banquet, there will be several lucky draw items during the banquet to adjust the atmosphere."

"So that's how it is?" Listening to Gu Chen's serious narration, Lu Weiwei couldn't help but say, "It's quite normal to just have a meal."

"That's for sure. You are not invited to this meal for nothing. They invited so many people over, they must have come to discuss the project." Gu Chen said with a smile.

In Gu Chen's impression, ever since his parents' careers began to improve, they would often be invited to this kind of venue to participate in some business activities.

For the first time, I felt quite novel, and gradually, I also felt that various commercial projects emerged one after another.

In fact, a large part of the reason why I was able to chat with Zhao Liwen, the founder of Guiyuan Tianju, about the deep meaning of the project at the wedding banquet at noon was also because of participating in this kind of commercial activity, which I was deeply impressed by.

Therefore, Gu Chen can also have a deep understanding of some business understanding.

In the final analysis, it is also to give yourself a long experience.

But after glancing at Lu Weiwei, who was looking around with a strange expression on his face, Gu Chen instantly felt that this was exactly the same as the first time he participated in this kind of business banquet.

Shaking his head, Gu Chen also reminded, "Sister Lu, don't look, I'll take you in."
