Reborn I want to surf

Chapter 211
The bathing center was not called a bathing center at first, but a sauna.

It emerged in China in the 80s, but it did not become popular. When the commercial boom started in the 90s, singing and dancing halls, video halls, karaoke, etc. blew violently like gusts of wind, and saunas also bloomed everywhere.

In 1995, there were nearly 400 saunas in Beijing.

Tickets cost more than ten yuan, and you can only take a bath. This is called "Jingsang", which makes the working people enjoy themselves, but if you add Chinese, Japanese, Thai, European massage, etc., you will go straight to tens of thousands. .

In an era when the per capita salary was several hundred yuan, Thai style dared to ask for 2 yuan an hour, and the big money flocked to it to wash their face.

At that time, Santana and Daben were all parked at the door, a natural social place for businessmen and politicians, which contributed a lot of GDP.It is said that in 1996, ten thousand saunas across the country washed away 100 billion!
At that time, the process of discussing business was to eat first, go to the karaoke bar after eating, dance after singing, take a bath in the sauna after dancing, and massage with the opposite sex... Hey, the bad atmosphere of massage with the opposite sex was brought about by the sauna.

After one set, if Party A is happy, 6% of the business will be settled.

"Drip!"

Liu Qiangdong drove through the cold winter streets with a red flag. The streets and alleys were already filled with the atmosphere of the Spring Festival. The lights were decorated, the shops were vigorously shouting promotions, and the shopping malls were full of people.

He looked at a shopping mall on the right side of the road, and suddenly had an idea: how many years can these physical stores last?With the rapid development of e-commerce, will physical stores be eliminated in the future?
After thinking about it, I thought about it and shook my head. Probably not. That means that all of China's service industry will be online, which is unlikely.

Brother Dong walked along the road to Xicheng, picked up a few discarded cardboard boxes, and stopped at the door of a bathhouse called "Bai Jinhan".

He has been hanging out in the capital for many years and has experienced that era. He remembers that this place used to be called Victoria Sauna, but it was changed to Buckingham Bath last year.

Tickets are 38.

Brother Dong is from Jiangsu, oh no, from northern Jiangsu, oh no, from Suqian!
He was greeted and sent off in the business world, and he was very familiar with the bathing culture in the north, and he was quite happy when he entered the door: Damn it!Mr. Yao finally chose a place that conforms to the public's aesthetics, and he doesn't need to eat lanterns.

The master who invites people to eat the lantern is more or less perverted!
Went in for a rush, changed into a bathrobe and went upstairs, Yao Yuan was not in the private room, but lying in the lounge.Brother Dong found a row in the dim light, and saw that guy pia on the sofa, ordered a pot of tea, and was drinking it.

"Why didn't you go to the private room?"

"It's so nice here, and I can listen to some chatter."

Yao Yuan poured him a cup of tea and asked, "Squeeze your feet?"

"Okay!"

So he called out to pinch his feet twice, and Brother Dong also lay down and listened with pricked ears. The neighbors were talking about Koizumi's visit to the Yasukuni Shrine.

"It's not once or twice. What's the use of protesting?"

"That can't just do it, you have to understand it from the overall situation."

"Yes, I understand, I understand everything. But for us ordinary people, it's just aggrieved. Who doesn't look forward to a day when we can do what we say?"

"..."

Brother Dong shrugged, not interested in the topic.

At this time, two technician ladies came over, wearing miniskirts in uniforms, snow-white thighs, and carrying a delicate small box. The training was in place, and they bowed first:

"Hi sir, number 88/63 is at your service!"

As he spoke, he took the small stool and sat down, put a towel under the feet of the two of them, and began to rub, with professional smiles on their faces, while rubbing, secretly scrutinizing, what type of guest is it?Is it easy to strike up a conversation?

They have seen a lot of guests, some are really awesome, some are bragging, most of them are bragging. No. 88 took a few glances at Commander Yao, and was delighted. He was tall, long-legged, and handsome...

No. 63 glanced at Brother Dong, and he was not bad either, with thick eyebrows and big eyes.

After kneading for a while, he began to press the soles of his feet. His hands were quite strong. Yao Yuan was in pain, but he couldn't show it. He tried his best to relax his muscles, but in fact he held the blanket with one hand and endured it.

Dong Ge's grandson is similar.

The technician who did it was surprised, and said: "The two bosses are in good health, how can you work so hard?"

"It's okay, I usually exercise."

"That's great. I pressed a client yesterday. As soon as I touched it, I knew that my kidneys were not good, and I was crying and howling."

"So professional?"

"We have all been trained professionally, and we have also learned how to keep in good health. As the saying goes, if you don't have enough energy to think about food, if you don't have enough energy to think about sleep, if you don't have enough kidneys to think about sex... The guest yesterday saw that he was intemperate, so let's tan his back more. , can supplement Yang Qi."

"Yo, then you are really experts."

"Taught and taught."

On the 88th, we had a good chat, and took the opportunity to say: "Boss, go to the private room for a massage. We have many kinds of services, which are better than pedicures. Let me give you a massage?"

"Next time, I don't have time today."

"Oh……"

88 lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, spit secretly, bah, cheapskate!
Pedicures are labor-intensive, time-consuming, and cost-effective. Technicians usually don’t like to do it, and they always fool customers into placing large orders.

And men in this kind of place, doing this kind of thing, more or less like to chat with technicians, chatting and bragging, how much business they do, how much world they have seen, and get lost in the praise of the young lady.

In fact, people in Yemen are clear.

As the saying goes: I should act with you and turn a blind eye...

After teasing a few words, Yao Yuan lay back, closed his eyes, and suddenly said after a while: "Have you heard the news about Taobao, eBay, and Dangdang?"

"..."

Brother Dong was also lying down, eyes slightly closed, and said, "I heard that there must be a big battle."

"E-commerce burns money, and it cannot grow without investment. Marketing and promotion, market development, warehousing and logistics, all of which require a huge amount of money to pour down.

But don't look at them having fun, in fact, it is still the barbaric era of e-commerce, there are no rules, let alone scale, and there are still countless opportunities for latecomers. "

Yao Yuan said a few words, and then said, "We cooperated during SARS?"

"Well, SARS cooperated."

"You chose to settle in Maiwo. At that time, you signed a one-year contract, which was about to expire."

"..."

Brother Dong is a very direct person, he likes to talk when he has something to say, after thinking about it, he asked directly:

"I think e-commerce has a great future, but there are too many offline constraints. I'm considering converting JD.com to an online business. What do you think?"

"The direction is right. E-commerce is indeed promising. If you want to switch to online, we can cooperate deeply."

deep cooperation?

Liu Qiangdong understands what the other party means, that is, Jingdong must still be under Maiwo's banner, and other conditions will be discussed separately.

And he hesitated and hesitated here. The two are friends now. If he wants to move Jingdong out and run it independently, he will become rivals.

He has always been full of entrepreneurial passion and never changed his original intention. He liked female college students 20 years ago, and he still likes female college students 20 years later.

"To be honest, I have a big business, and I don't have so much energy to take care of everything. I really need a strong partner. You can treat it as a venture capital investment. I'm only responsible for the investment, and you handle the specific affairs."

"..."

When Brother Dong heard it, he knew that the other party was already very sincere, so he became more and more entangled, and said, "If it were the opposite, what would you do?"

"I will spare no effort to kill JD first!"

Yao Yuan was still lying down, closed his eyes and said: "Because you are the weakest, it is best to fight."

In an instant, swords were on the verge of breaking out, and murderous intent was rising.

Technician No. 88 rolled his eyes, then spit secretly, bah, you two are bragging!

You don't even call a noble concubine rubbing your body, so why pretend? !
