Chapter 88 Core Competitiveness of Tongxin Internet Cafe (with changes)

While chatting, Li Yiwen remembered one thing, and said: "Oh, right, in a blink of an eye, the Tongxin Internet cafe chain has been open for a whole month, and the business of the three Internet cafes is booming. Since you came here Alright, let's see how much money we made this month. Wangzai, stop playing games and come here too."

Li Quanwang next to him said without turning his head, "Wait a minute, I'll finish this game."

After more than ten minutes, Li Quanwang finished playing a game, ran to the bar and asked, "What's the matter?"

Li Yiwen said: "The head office of Tongxin Internet Cafe has been open for a month now, we calculated the income and distributed the dividends."

Lu Yiming turned on the background, and everyone's eyes were focused on the screen.

"One store, 60!"

"In a month, the cash flow is 60, which is invincible."

Both Li Quanwang and Li Yiwen couldn't help but exclaimed.

Although the two are already multi-millionaires, they are still very shocked by this achievement.

"The second store is not bad, more than 30!"

"It's only been a dozen days since the three stores have reached 10,000+."

"The fourth store has just been renovated and will open next month, and several universities next to it just start school, so the business will probably be even better."

"Doesn't that mean that Internet cafes can continue to earn more than one million yuan this month? Is opening an Internet cafe so profitable?" Li Quanwang felt that his common sense had been refreshed.

Lu Yiming, who had just slapped a handful of wool on Maozi's body, couldn't get any energy up at all.

"It's only a million or so, it's not enough to watch."

Li Yiwen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "Cousin, I think you are inflated. You don't think it's enough to see a business with a monthly turnover of over one million? If someone else hears your words, you will be easily beaten, do you know that?"

There are quite a few bosses running factories in China, especially in the Pearl River Delta region, where there are many factories, and the processing trade of various incoming materials is very popular.

Li Yiwen used to work in a trading company. He came and went, and met many textile factory owners who specialize in export trade. He occasionally worked part-time to help them with accounts to earn some extra money, so he was familiar with the profits of their businesses.

One of them has been in operation for more than five years and has a good reputation in the industry, with sales of more than 8000 million yuan and a gross profit of more than 600 million yuan.

Generally speaking, the average profit margin of the textile industry is about [-]%. However, due to the marketing of the Asian financial crisis last year, the gross profit margin of the other party's company fell below [-]%, which is considered a rare low point.

But the gross profit of more than 600 million yuan needs to be paid for local taxes, sales expenses, logistics expenses, management expenses, bank interest and other costs.

After deducting various expenses and workers' wages, the total profit is only a little over 40 yuan.

After paying corporate income tax, the net profit is only more than 30!
This income, smelling sad, makes those who see it cry!
The current economic environment is not good, and many bosses in the real economy say that business is difficult. Many people look bright on the surface, but in fact they are all operating with debt. That's why Lu Yiming still dislikes the monthly profit of more than 100 million.

Now opening an Internet cafe is basically just lying down to make money, unlike those who make clothes and shoes and hats, the involution is getting more and more serious.

Not only do they have no pricing power at all when facing foreign businessmen, but they even bargain with each other for orders, making people's brains like dogs.Li Yiwen is now secretly rejoicing that hugging his cousin's thigh is indeed the right thing to do. His former colleague is still bald, and he has basically achieved financial freedom.

But, then again, even though they are all worth tens of millions now, part of the principal, but the recharge of the previous users, is not strictly speaking the wealth of the three of them.

Fortunately, the Internet cafe is developing well now, and its performance is gratifying, and many users who recharged before could not resist the temptation of the Internet, and went to the Internet cafe to consume, which invisibly saved a lot of redemption costs for Tongxin Internet cafe.

After reconciling accounts, Lu Yiming said to Li Yiwen: "Tomorrow the school will start reporting, and Wang Zai and I are going to study. I will leave the Internet cafe to you."

Originally, there were three brothers, but two of them left at once. Li Yiwen couldn't help complaining: "I'm such a hard worker. I'm obviously the second largest shareholder, but I'm the only one working."

Li Quanwang said: "Then I'll come over after school to help you."

Lu Yiming smiled and said: "It's called hard work for those who are capable, and you don't have to follow all of them, just focus on the financial aspect. I will take some time to improve the system of the Internet cafe. In the future, I can use the background of the system for remote monitoring, and then Then check the accounts regularly and do some patrolling.”

"Isn't that good? What if the machine breaks down?"

People these days don't fully trust machines, and they always feel that they can't rest assured unless they stare at them personally.

In fact, for Lu Yiming, the probability of a machine making a mistake is much lower than that of a human being making a mistake, and it can be continuously improved.

The most important thing is that large-scale and regular work, without the help of machines, relies on the efficiency of humans, which is simply invisible.

Lu Yiming patted Li Yiwen's shoulder and said with a smile: "Cousin, the 21st century is coming soon, you have to believe in technology. Besides, we have only opened three Internet cafes in total now, and we will open three more soon. There will be more and more, you can’t just stare at them all, can you? You can’t hide it even if you have three heads and six arms.”

Li Yiwen thought for a while and couldn't help nodding: "You are right."

Lu Yiming went on to say: "In my opinion, it is better to formulate the company's management system, then train new people, and then promote outstanding employees to be store managers. From now on, you only need to appoint store managers. If something goes wrong, you directly deal with the store manager." .We, the shareholders, always work in person. What does that sound like? Being a boss is more tiring than being an employee. Who is going to work for whom?"

After hearing this, Li Yiwen immediately looked at Lu Yiming with admiration: "I didn't expect you to know a lot."

Lu Yiming laughed and said, "I've never eaten pork, but I've seen pigs run away."

To put it bluntly, Internet cafes are actually similar to convenience stores. All products are owned by the company and the boss, and the employees themselves only provide services.Moreover, compared with convenience stores, the management of Internet cafes is simpler. There is no need to frequently calculate the inventory of various commodities, as long as the training and management of personnel are done well.Everything else can be handed over to the Internet cafe management system.

As an aside, the internet cafe management system developed by Lu Yiming is definitely the core competitiveness of Tongxin Internet Cafe.

With the rise of the domestic Internet, there are more and more Internet cafes, but basically everyone is still in the state of keeping accounts with small books. It is common to pay for an hour, go to work for three or four hours, or even skip the order directly.

However, the software developed by Lu Yiming can control the time spent on the Internet and automatically lock the screen when it arrives. For the Internet cafe industry, it is definitely a "high-tech" that crosses the age.
