Chapter 548 Another way to solve the problem
After Jiang Jianguo, Jiang Jiankang and others were released from the kitchen by the old man, more people were lost in thought in the dining room.
A group of people, either fat or thin, male or female, sat together with their chins propped up and deep in thought. From a distance, it looked like a cult meeting.
Except for Jiang Jianshe, who was playing chess with Professor Li, and a few people in the living room, everyone was solving this super-outline problem in the dining room. No one solved it, or even found an idea for solving it.
"I think we can look at this problem from another angle." Jiang Feng suddenly broke the silence, "Since we can't think of a solution, why not look at this problem from another angle and look at this problem from the perspective of the person who asked the question."
"The person who asked the question?" Zhang Guanghang sat up straight and looked at Jiang Feng, "From the perspective of Roland Reiner?"
"Yes." Jiang Feng's thinking suddenly broadened, "Since we can't think of any countermeasures for the time being, let's think about what Roland Reiner and the restaurant he works for paid such a huge price to come all the way to open a restaurant in Peiping. What do they want? ”
Grandma Jiang, who had just understood the question, was a little confused: "Didn't you say that I was going to show off my power?"
"No, if it's just to show off the power, the price is too high. It must be profitable." As the former proprietress of a tailor shop, the eldest aunt realized that things were not that simple.
"Opening a restaurant in Peiping is quite profitable in itself." Jiang Jiankang, who doesn't like reading or watching Machiavellian TV series, looked confused.
"What a pig. Their two-Michelin-starred restaurant doesn't make money in the United States?" Wang Xiulian rolled her eyes at Jiang Jiankang, "You must have come here because you made more money here."
"But the business of these Michelin-star restaurant branches here has always been sluggish. They opened one after another and had no foundation. Even if the chefs are sent over, the profit should not be as big as the local ones." Jiang Feng was also a little confused.
We are all capitalists, and making money is the most important thing. Why bother to be so impulsive? If it’s not good for you, it’s not good for me either.
"But what if they are profitable, and there is a huge profit." Zhang Guanghangdao.
Everyone looked at him curiously.
Lao Zhang, did you hear any news when you returned to China? "Jiang Feng asked.
"When I was having dinner with my dad, he casually complained that the business in the store was not very prosperous last year, and profits dropped by 20%." Zhang Guanghangdao, "The economy has been in a downturn in recent years, and high-end restaurants in the West are generally not good. Good times. Last year when I came here I have heard colleagues complain that the income is not as good as in previous years. Although Europe and America are different, my restaurant has three Michelin stars. Even the income of my restaurant has dropped so much. I guess the star-rated restaurants in the United States are not much better. "
"You mean..."
"They may not be here to show off their power, they are here to open up the Chinese market." Zhang Guanghang guessed, "China's economy has developed rapidly in recent years, and the West has long been eyeing this market. As you all know, there were Many Michelin restaurants have tried to open branches here in Peiping, but they all failed.”
"Aunt Wang is right. They have taken over the top floor of the shopping mall and spent a lot of money on publicity. It must be profitable. If it is just because of the Michelin rating that they want to send a capable chef here to give everyone a boost, then that's fine. There is no need to spend so much effort." The more Zhang Guanghang analyzed, the more he felt that he had made a mistake before, "We have all fallen into a misunderstanding, and we have messed up the order of this matter."
"We think that the Michelin selection came first, and then Roland Reiner came to Peiping. However, if Roland Reiner was originally planning to come to Peiping, but happened to run into the Michelin selection, we would like to take this opportunity to give everyone another blow. What?”
When Jiang Feng heard what Zhang Guanghang said, his eyelids twitched in shock.
"If you think about it this way, it all makes sense. The Western economy is in a slump, and the catering industry is also in a slump. On the contrary, our catering industry, especially in Peking, is very prosperous and prosperous. The Western side wants to seek new opportunities. Way out, open To open up a new market, they sent Roland Reiner because he was the most suitable. He knew how to cater to the tastes of diners, he was a pioneer officer, and he had a strong army behind him, giving him the best resources and armed forces. "Zhang Guanghang said calmly.
Everyone thought it was very reasonable and nodded one after another.
"Right, that makes sense. I told you why I thought this matter was a bit weird before. It turns out we made a mistake." Jiang Jianguo nodded repeatedly, a typical afterthought.
"Yes, that's it." Jiang Jiankang slapped his thigh in excitement, "That Roland didn't just come to our store, he came to all the restaurants in Peiping, and he came to compete with us for jobs and business."
The catering industry in Peiping is a huge cake, and anyone who looks at it wants to take a few bites.
"But if that's the case, wouldn't this matter be more difficult to handle?" Jiang Feng couldn't help but pour cold water on everyone, "If you just come to give us a showdown, you will go back after suffering a little setback. But if They are determined and have clear goals to fight for food from us. It seems not easy to make them give up.”
A tiger with a full stomach may wag its tail and walk back when it hears the enemy's warning cry. But a hungry wolf cannot give up without trying his best to tear off a piece or two of meat.
The dining room fell silent again.
After thinking about it from another's perspective, instead of coming up with a solution, I found that the enemy was stronger, more difficult, and even harder to deal with.
While a group of people were cosplaying together, Chen Suhua mistakenly entered the dining room carrying a fruit plate.
"I said, why can't you see people everywhere? Why are you sitting here? If you want to chat, go to the living room. The bench is so hard. I cut the fruit and let's go to the living room to eat together." Chen Suhua said.
"Okay, stop thinking. You can't solve things by just thinking. What's the saying? When soldiers come to block it, water comes and the soil floods. Back then, the city wanted to build a dam, but there were no machines or cars, so it was all about manpower. The dam has been repaired as usual, and the quality is so good that there is no problem now. Why are so many of us afraid of someone named Luo? Let’s go to the living room to eat. Don’t think about these troubles during the holidays. "Grandma Jiang stood up. I poured a lot of chicken soup for everyone and started chasing people away.
"What's wrong? What happened?" Chen Suhua looked confused.
Grandma Jiang waved her hands. In fact, she didn't understand what happened. When Zhang Guanghang analyzed it, she didn't understand it at all: "It's not a big deal, just scare yourself."
Just when everyone was about to leave the dining room and go to the living room to eat fruit, Jiang Weiming came out of the kitchen with a bowl of food and happened to meet everyone.
"Why are you all here?" Jiang Weiming asked with a smile, "Xiao Zhang is here too. Just in time, I have done a lot, let's try it together."
Jiang Feng looked at the bowl in Jiang Weiming's hand. The things inside looked like...
It looks like a bowl of beancurd, but there is a little too much water.
Because of the problem of internship (mandatory fixed-point internship), I was called to a meeting by the college in the evening (quarrel). The third update is probably gone again. As usual, it will be made up for the third update tomorrow.
