Chapter 499 "Zoo Rules"

Pre-sale...

A wave of pre-sales, and a full year's worth of ferry tickets was directly recovered? !

At least 1.5 billion in cash has been directly transferred to the company's account!

And this is just "at least". You must know that there are many paid items on the ship that can be booked in advance, such as roller coasters, racing cars, and various specialty restaurants... Many tourists will also pay for these items in advance when booking tickets. paid!

Kuaiguang Group does not need to provide them with services immediately, so there is no way to provide them with food now.

Yang Ruoqian took two deep breaths, holding on to prevent himself from fainting, and asked: "Why did the booking of tickets for the following year open so quickly? The tickets were sold out so quickly, and many people didn't have time to react. It's not very good. All right?"

Qi Mu was stunned and replied: "Mr. Yang, I'm really sorry... Because there are very few similar reference projects, our operations department used the domestic cruise sales data of a well-known foreign cruise company for comparison."

“Generally speaking, even a week before sailing, there are still tickets available.”

"We have made a more... bold guess that our sales volume will be more than three times theirs, but the sales volume still exceeds our estimate."

Yang Ruoqian rubbed his forehead tiredly after listening to the secretary's words.

It seems that the employees have indeed done nothing wrong, so there is no way to criticize them.

Forcibly refunding tickets does not seem to be a good idea. What many tourists value is not the ticket price at all, but the unprecedented sea experience.

Even if the ticket is refunded and money is lost, it is estimated that the passengers who bought the ticket will not agree...

Do I have to make this money?

Yang Ruoqian was so angry that he felt his teeth itch and ordered: "Don't worry about this for now, we need to adjust our subsequent ticket sales strategy!"

Qi Mu nodded and asked, "Mr. Yang, how do you plan to adjust?"

"First of all, slow down the frequency of pre-sales until the pre-sale of ferry tickets is four months later." Yang Ruoqian first shortened the time limit of pre-sales - it is impossible to sell a product like a ferry ticket on the same day as the flight. It is for pre-sale.

This money must be earned in advance if not earned in advance.

But there is still a big gap between making a year's worth of money in advance and making four months' money in advance.

Yang Ruoqian thought for a while and added: "Every time before releasing the tickets, be sure to publicize it well so that people who want to buy tickets know that the tickets are about to be released."

"Okay Mr. Yang."

After Qi Mu asked all the questions, he turned around and wanted to leave. Suddenly, as if he remembered something important, he stopped and asked: "Mr. Yang, the zoo will open in a few days. Do you need anything special to explain?" idea?”

Although she couldn't imagine what would happen in the zoo for the time being, it would never go wrong to ask first.

Maybe Mr. Yang can think of problems that she couldn't think of?

Yang Ruoqian felt that what the secretary said made sense, but he really didn't know what to improve, so he thought about it and asked, "Is the zoo now much different from when I went there before?"

When the animals were delivered to the zoo, Mr. Yang also went to the zoo once to give the new director a good lesson and let him re-understand what Kuangguang Group was.

The past means little if not much changes.

Qi Mu did not hesitate this time and answered directly: "Mr. Yang, the changes are quite big."

"Okay, then I'll go over and take a look again." Yang Ruoqian stood up, "Now help me arrange the itinerary."

A wave of cruise pre-sales has brought back nearly 2 billion in ticket cash flow a year, completely disrupting Mr. Yang’s previous plan.

The movie box office was a hit at home and abroad, and the huge investment cost of the cruise ship was quickly recovered. Both of these huge investments ended in semi-failure.

The last remaining zoo is the most important project of this quarter, one that can determine life and death.

"I will help you arrange it."

…

Dozens of minutes later, Yang Ruoqian arrived outside the newly renovated zoo campus.

The ticket office, parking lot, exterior decoration and entrance to the safari park for private cars have been prepared. Now it seems that everything is ready, just waiting for the opening day.

"Mr. Yang, come here!" The principal had been waiting outside the door early, ready to greet Yang Ruoqian. "It's hot, so come up first."

When he was building the zoo campus, he was already very sure and certain that this was his dream job and his dream zoo.

But you can't lose your job because of some weird reasons.

If you don’t enter the wildlife park through the entrance, enter the general park directly from the main entrance.

Ordinary private cars are not allowed in the park, but there are special electric observation cars in the park. Knowing that the weather is hot now, the director also customized a small air-conditioned observation car specifically to entertain Mr. Yang. Be sure not to use it. Make him feel a little uncomfortable.

Yang Ruoqian was very happy after getting on the modified golf cart and asked: "Are all these observation cars in the park?"

He still remembered that when he was a child, he would go to places like this during summer vacation, always under the fierce sun, and move around with a parasol that was better than nothing.

When you encounter a water mist sprayer used for cooling, you must go over and rub it.

At that time, I saw golf carts without air conditioning driving past, not to mention how envious I felt.

Now Yang Ruoqian opens his own zoo and amusement park, and can travel comfortably in an air-conditioned car, which can be regarded as a small regret from his childhood.

The director was stunned when he heard the question: "Mr. Yang... not all tour buses are equipped with air conditioners. In order to control costs, most tour buses are ordinary tour buses."

The few luxury tour buses are used to receive VIPs.

"How can this be possible?" Mr. Yang suddenly felt that he had made the right decision to come to the zoo this time. "Our Kuiguang Group is to bring the best experience to tourists. It is too inhumane for them to watch crocodiles baring their teeth in the hot summer. So, you can replace all the tour buses with the ones I am sitting in now. If the budget is not enough, just ask the company headquarters for it."

"Remember, you must not save money that is not necessary."

The director nodded blankly, and hesitated again: "But, but..."

"No buts, you know animals better than me, but I know tourists better than you." Yang Ruoqian waved his hand, "Let's go, take me to see how the zoo is built now."

"Okay... I'll take you to visit the main park first."

The director was already familiar with the routes in the zoo, and soon took Yang Ruoqian to go through the entire zoo.

Including the aquarium, performance venues and even restaurants in the zoo.

After a round, Yang Ruoqian frowned slightly.

He originally thought that there would be many problems similar to the tram problem just now in the zoo, but now after a round, he found that there seemed to be not many places worth improving.

The construction of the entire zoo basically fully met the several special requirements raised by Yang Ruoqian at the time.

For example, the performance venue was divided into three areas according to the requirements, one area was the performance area, one area was the animal viewing area, and the last area was the viewing area open to tourists.

Letting tourists and animals watch human performances together, which sounds very abstract, was also implemented so well, and other work naturally need not be said.

There are animals that should be there, and there are animals that shouldn’t be there...

There are even facilities specially built for protecting some endangered animals, and the benefits are obviously lower than the cost.

As for the venue over there in the wildlife park, there is even less to see, and no matter how you design it, you can’t play with flowers.

Everything has been done, but why does it feel like something is missing?

"Is there no room for optimization?"

Now that the Kuiguang Group is getting bigger and bigger, there are not many projects left for Yang Ruoqian, and each large project is a scarce resource.

If you don't optimize today, there will be nothing to optimize tomorrow.

Looking at the big boss's expression, the director was a little nervous. He asked hesitantly: "Mr. Yang, what do you think? Are you not satisfied with anything?"

Yang Ruoqian said: "It looks okay now... Well, I remember I mentioned an idea to you before, that is, different routes of adventure activities in the wildlife park at night, have you arranged it?"

How could the director forget such an important thing? He nodded and affirmed: "All equipment has been purchased, you can check it at any time."

Yang Ruoqian said: "Take me to see it."

Soon, the Ferris wheel arrived near a garage.

There were several brand-new special vans parked inside.

Led by the director, Yang Ruoqian walked up curiously.

The front half of the van was half open, with a roof and a metal fence that looked shaky but was actually very solid.

The second half is a room with a toilet, a simple restaurant and a mini bar, which can accommodate at least ten people at a time. In the room, you can also see the scenery outside through the reinforced windows.

At the front of the vehicle, there are also several infrared thermal imaging cameras, which are convenient for tourists to see how many dangers are lurking around them in the dark environment.

"The design is very good... It's hard to imagine anything just by imagination."

Yang Ruoqian opened the bar, took out a cold drink, and thought about countermeasures in his mind.

"This way." Yang Ruoqian suddenly had an idea, "I will come to your place again in the evening, you take me to the night wildlife park route, take me to experience it completely, and don't miss anything."

"Overtime... I will make an exception for this time, and I will give you 10 times the compensation salary, okay?"

The director waved his hand quickly: "Mr. Yang, why do you need overtime pay for this matter? You can come anytime, we are on standby 24 hours a day!"

It's already a great honor to get this job, why do you need overtime pay!

Working for a big boss, overtime pay is too formal.

If an employee feels that he is being exploited, he will definitely want some overtime pay for working overtime late at night.

But now, all employees of Kuiguang Group have a twisted mentality - when can they work overtime for Mr. Yang for free?

It always feels a bit hot to receive this salary without working overtime.

Especially the director, although he doesn't pay much attention to the entertainment industry, he also knows the achievements of Kuiguang Group in the international arena.

He is sure that the reason why the zoo is built so luxuriously is because the company has made a lot of money overseas and has sufficient financial support.

It's not that his ideas and creativity as the director are so good.

Under this psychological influence, the director of the zoo will of course volunteer to work overtime.

"That won't work." Yang Ruoqian refused, "Only one professional team and necessary backup personnel will be left, and no one else is allowed to work overtime. Okay, that's it, see you tonight."

After speaking, Yang Ruoqian got out of the car and rushed back home as fast as possible.

Just now, he thought of a great plan that would definitely have an impact on the zoo.

That is "making rules".

As long as you make more rules for the zoo, you can greatly increase tourists' boredom with the zoo.

Just like the thing that gamers hate most is that the planners teach them how to play games.

I believe that tourists will also hate the zoo teaching them how to visit animals, right?

Now go home, combine everything you just saw and what happened at night, and make up a set of nonsense "Zoo Rules" for all tourists.

By the way, make up a set of "Zoo Rules Staff Edition" for the employees.

When this set of rules is sent out, I think tourists will have a lot of dissatisfaction!

"What are you doing?" Chang Zhiqing, who changed into loose and thin pajamas, walked out of the kitchen in slippers, holding two cups of watermelon juice in her hands. "The movie box office and boat tickets are selling very well, right? Are you worried?"

It's because the sales are too good that I'm worried, okay...

Yang Ruoqian complained in his heart and responded: "About the zoo... Our zoo has a night visit event. I plan to go tonight to see it, so as to avoid any accidents."

After saying that, Yang Ruoqian thought about it and asked again: "How about going together?"

Chang Zhiqing shook the watermelon juice in her hand twice. She was silent for two or three seconds and said: "Dating in the zoo at night, you are also very creative."

"Let's go or not." Yang Ruoqian took the watermelon juice and shrugged with a smile.

"I'll go, I'll definitely go." Chang Zhiqing glared, "By the way, let me see how dangerous the zoo is at night. Will it be pitch black around me? I'll use night vision goggles to scan around and find animals everywhere?"

"It sounds exciting..."

"..."

The two chatted while eating, and took a short break for a few hours after setting the alarm.

Ding Ding Ding...

The alarm rang, and the two got up at the same time, changed their clothes and got in the car.

Since there was no excuse, Yang Ruoqian drove himself this time, and did not let Chang Zhiqing be the driver part-time.

Half an hour later, the car arrived at the zoo parking lot, which was already pitch black.

Different from the family travel atmosphere during the day, the neon signs of the zoo flickered at night, and many words were completely dimmed, looking like an abandoned park that had been dilapidated for a long time.

It seemed that as long as you took a step inside, you would encounter all the terrible things you would encounter in a horror movie.

Chang Zhiqing carefully pushed the door and got out of the car, and her voice lowered a little: "I'm a little nervous suddenly..."
