"In addition, we also calculated the total turnover of all merchants. At the end of the day, the total turnover of the merchants in Hutchison Plaza exceeded 10 million Hong Kong dollars, reaching 11.28 million Hong Kong dollars." Wei. Li continues to report.
"Well, it's okay. Nothing went wrong today, right?" Su Cheng asked.
He really doesn’t feel much about 10 million Hong Kong dollars, maybe because Su City is too rich.
As everyone knows, in one day, the turnover in a shopping mall exceeds HK$10 million. This is an exaggerated figure.
This is equivalent to an average consumption of HK$180 per person.
This is not the 21st century, but the late 1970s. Prices are much lower now than they were a few decades ago. It is extremely exaggerated to be able to consume such a figure.
Of course, this must be due to the high quality of today’s passenger traffic. Many wealthy people from Xiangjiang come to visit. They may buy a bag, a pair of shoes, jewelry, cosmetics, etc. It only costs tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars, which can easily increase the total revenue.
In addition, today is the first day of trial operation. Everyone is very curious, so it is easy to start buying.
But it can also be seen from a side perspective that the quality of customers coming to Hutchison Plaza is too high. The vast majority of people are high-consumption groups. Who doesn't like this kind of customer flow!
"No, except for a shop where a customer made a fuss in the shop because the customers queued for too long, there was no other situation." Weili replied.
"That's good. Tomorrow is also the weekend. If nothing else happens, the passenger flow should not be worse than today. Even with everyone's discussion about Hutchison Plaza, the passenger flow may be even greater. You must be prepared to welcome the passenger flow. It's a big possibility. It's best to gather all the merchants and get them prepared. The customer's experience is very important. Only by satisfying them can they become regular customers!" Su Cheng said with a smile.
"Okay, okay, I will tell Mr. Wen about this, and I will also go there tomorrow to keep an eye on that place." Weili responded.
Although Hutchison Plaza is not that good now, it seems that it cannot make much money just relying on these rents, but once it develops into an internationally renowned brand, it will be too easy to make money from this thing.
So, the first Hutchison Plaza must be successful. Only a successful beginning can lead to the subsequent multinational chain city complex Hutchison Plazas all over the world.
However, Su Cheng was only more concerned at the beginning. He had no plans to go to Kowloon Tong the next day.
Unsurprisingly, Hutchison Plaza's instant success has made it a hot topic among Hong Kong residents.
Many citizens who went to Hutchison Plaza continued to spread the word to the people around them about how fun and lively Hutchison Plaza was.
This makes those who have never been there feel itchy and want to go there and experience it right away.
Therefore, many citizens who did not go there on Saturday planned to go there the next day to experience it and see if Hutchison Whampoa Plaza is what they said.
Moreover, on the first day of trial operation of Hutchison Plaza, many media reporters came to Hutchison Plaza in person. They also spread the grand event of Hutchison Plaza through newspapers and TV stations. .
This has also led to Hutchison Plaza becoming even more famous.
In fact, many citizens who visited on Saturday plan to go to Hutchison Plaza on Sunday.
That’s how people are, the busier the place, the more people it attracts.
On the contrary, it is a deserted place with not many people interested.
So, Hutchison Plaza, which was extremely popular on the first day, has been initially recognized by the citizens of Xiangjiang.
Sure enough, the next day at Hutchison Plaza, just as Sioux City had predicted, there was more passenger traffic.
At the end of the whole day, almost every store was busy.
In the evening, when the visitor flow was counted again, the data once again shocked all senior executives of Hutchison Whampoa Group.
At the end of the whole day, the statistical passenger flow actually reached more than 98,500 people, nearly 100,000 people. According to statistics, the total turnover of all stores in one day exceeded 20 million Hong Kong dollars, which was nearly 10 million Hong Kong dollars more than on the first day. It was really an exaggeration.
With this kind of performance, Hutchison Plaza can still rank well even in the May Day and National Day Golden Week shopping mall rankings in its previous life in Sioux City.
It can be said that the first and second days of the trial operation of Hutchison Plaza were very successful.
However, on the third day of the trial opening, the passenger flow of Hutchison Plaza began to drop significantly. Throughout the day, only about 10,000 customers entered the venue. The total turnover is only over HK$2 million.
On the fourth day, the passenger flow was only more than 7,000, and the total turnover was only a little over one million.
On the fifth day, passenger traffic rebounded again, returning to the level of 12,000 people.
On the sixth day, the passenger flow remained at just over 10,000.
The same goes for the seventh day.
The reason why passenger traffic has dropped so exaggeratedly is naturally related to working days.
Except for the first two days, which are Saturday and Sunday, the following days are on working days. During this time, few guests from too far away come to Hutchison Plaza.
After all, they have been working for a day and are tired after get off work. At this time, many people have a simple idea, that is, to go home early and rest.
Therefore, it is normal for passenger traffic to drop significantly.
Another weekend has arrived.
The time has come to August 25th.
Not surprisingly, on this day, Hutchison Plaza once again ushered in the peak of passenger flow.
This week, Hutchison Plaza has never been less popular, and it has become an indispensable topic in the chats of many Xiangjiang citizens.
The news media has reported a lot. These reports have both good and bad sides.
When the passenger flow of Hutchison Plaza dropped significantly, many media even began to badmouth Hutchison Plaza, thinking that it was only prosperous for a while, but now it has been brought back to its original shape.
Although it is actually very good to have tens of thousands of passengers every day, in the eyes of these media reporters, they are comparing the first and second days, but no matter how big your tens of thousands of passengers are good.
Such a conclusion was actually recognized by some citizens, which caused these media to become excited and began to publish articles that badmouthed Hutchison Plaza.
For the sake of traffic and sales, they don’t care about that much.
As for Hutchison Plaza, there has been no response. They have been waiting, waiting for another weekend to arrive.
Sure enough, in the evening, when Hutchison Plaza closed for business, the statistics came out quickly.
At the end of the whole day, the passenger flow of Hutchison Plaza exceeded 100,000 for the first time, reaching more than 107,600 people, and the turnover also exceeded 20 million Hong Kong dollars.
The slap in the face came so quickly that the newspapers that originally spoke ill of Hutchison Plaza no longer dared to speak out. (End of this chapter)
