Chapter 23 "Return Customers"

Monday, March 3rd.

Lishan Technology Group’s Chaomeng experience store is still empty.

Neither Chen She nor Zhang Sirui are here today.

Today, Monday, Chen She needs to go back to the company to deal with daily affairs. In addition, the development of Mewtwo "Wandering in the Garden" has been completed. Chen She needs to go back and take a brief look at it, and then transport the physical version of Mewtwo.

At this time, Zhou Lei and several clerks were in the empty experience store, looking sad.

Although Mr. Chen showed full confidence and repeatedly promised that as soon as "Walking in the Garden" is released, the experience store will become popular and will definitely not lose money.

But how can people believe it in this current state?

The two days on weekends can be said to be the two days with the largest flow of people, but judging from the situation of the previous two days, the situation can no longer be described as bad.

What a disaster!

In fact, it was a complete accident that the group of gangsters headed by Zeng Hailong came to the store to experience it. But what Zhou Lei didn't expect was that those group of gangsters turned out to be the peak number of visitors to the experience store throughout the weekend!

After Zeng Hailong and other gangsters fled from the experience store in a mess, a few melon-eating people who didn't know the truth entered the experience store by mistake.

Some people thought it was expensive and left without playing at all.

Some people went in to experience it for a few minutes, then exited with angry faces, and complained that the difficulty of this Mewtwo was too unreasonable, and that the brains of the Mewtwo producers must have been hit by smart rifles.

To this day, no one has publicly stated that they like this Mewtwo!

As for repeat customers?

Even more impossible.

It's even better now, there are no more customers who accidentally enter the experience store.

Obviously, after those unlucky guys experienced Mewtwo, "The Ember Will Go Out", they must have made a big show of the people around them and added jealousy to the entire experience store.

The experience store uses the latest sleep game cabin. The charges are already high and cannot connect with most consumers here. If it continues like this, no one will come.

Zhou Lei and several shop assistants waited impatiently, but they were not as calm as Chen She.

A clerk asked: "Store manager, while Mr. Chen is away, should we secretly distribute some flyers or something? Although Mr. Chen said that we don't have to do anything, but we keep doing this, is it okay? It’s a bit too eye-catching!”

Zhou Lei sighed softly: "But Mr. Chen has repeatedly warned us not to hand out leaflets."

In fact, it is not only handing out leaflets, but also many other prohibited items.

Chen She was afraid that these people would cause unintended consequences and completely destroy a good start, so he specifically warned that no matter whether it was handing out leaflets, changing the content of electronic noticeboards, or finding celebrities for publicity, these methods were not allowed!

The only requirement is that they serve customers well and wait patiently for their return.

The store clerks had no choice but to look helplessly through the bulletproof glass of the experience store at the bustling streets with people coming and going.

How I wish the experience store could be as lively as the outside!

Suddenly, Zhou Lei's eyes lit up. He pointed outside and said, "Look, there are old acquaintances over there!"

Everyone turned around and saw that in a nearby restaurant, a few gangsters were eating and collecting protection money.

The gangster headed by him was none other than Zeng Hailong, who had been tortured in the experience store before.

Everyone was a little excited and a little expectant.

Zeng Hailong has already come here, why don't you stop by and check out the experience store? Could it be that the first repeat customer of the experience store is about to be born?

However, after observing carefully for a while, they found that something seemed wrong.

While collecting the protection fee, Zeng Hailong carefully looked in the direction of the experience store with a strong look of vigilance on his face.

It seems that he wants to run away as soon as he collects the protection fee and does not want to have anything to do with the experience store.

Seeing this, everyone was a little unhappy.

Zhou Lei was silent for a moment and said, "Mr. Chen told us before he left to entertain customers well, right?"

Everyone nodded in unison: "Yes."

Zhou Lei added: "Zeng Hailong and the others came to play for 6 hours last time, and they were still not satisfied. Mr. Chen said that they are welcome to come again, and they agreed, right?"

Everyone nodded again: "Yes."

Zhou Lei showed a smile: "Then why don't we entertain them well and welcome them in? What do you mean by standing here?"

"Our passive mentality is completely inconsistent with Mr. Chen's requirement of 'serving customers well'!"

Everyone suddenly realized.

yes!

Thinking of this, these clerks couldn't wait to rush out and surrounded Zeng Hailong and the gangsters around him!

Zeng Hailong was originally collecting protection money, but when he turned around, there was a group of people around him for no reason.

Looking at the familiar smile of the leader Zhou Lei again, Zeng Hailong almost lost his legs and knelt down on the spot.

It's over, these perverts are here again!

Last time he was deflated in the experience store and after being forcibly tortured for 6 hours, he went back and reported the situation to the boss of the Shark Gang. The boss of the Shark Gang expressed concern and condolences to him, saying that Zeng Hailong was doing this for the Shark Gang. A sacrifice was made.

Not only did they make up for his losses that day, but they also gave him two days off so that he could heal his mental wounds.

It wasn't until today that he was allowed to come to this area to collect protection fees.

Zeng Hailong was a little reluctant at first, and the psychological shadow has not completely faded away. But considering that I was only collecting protection fees from other families from afar, as long as I didn’t enter the experience store, there shouldn’t be much of a problem, so I agreed.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I appeared nearby, these shop assistants took the initiative!

Zeng Hailong felt his legs trembling, but in full view of the public, it was impossible for him to kneel down and beg for mercy. Then wouldn't his vicious image be completely ruined? Don’t even think about wandering on the road in the future.

I could only try to control my emotions, my face was twitching, and I forced a smile: "Is something wrong?"

Zhou Lei smiled with an amiable expression: "Last time our boss invited you to come back to play again, why didn't you come for two days in a row? We really miss you."

"Since we happened to be passing by today, why don't we come over and play for a few hours?"

Zeng Hailong's face turned green.

He knew that he was done again today, and he would have to endure another few hours of torture!

He didn't dare to refuse, because these people were really terrible!

If I refused on the spot, I don’t know what terrible things would happen.

It's just that today, the group of gangsters who came with Zeng Hailong were not the same group as last time. There were three or four people who had not experienced the last tragedy.

They were a little confused, how could these experience store waiters dare to talk to Brother Long like this?

"You're tired of living, aren't you? We are from the Shark Gang! You"

Before the little gangster could finish his words, the angry Zeng Hailong slapped him on the back of the head with a big ear-scratcher.

There was a crisp "pop" sound, and the little gangster was stunned.

"Shut the hell up, you're so tired of living!"

Zeng Hailong hurriedly smiled apologetically at Zhou Lei: "Sorry, the new guy doesn't understand the rules. We'll go to the experience store to take care of your business."

He looked at the few gangsters next to him: "Why don't you come quickly?"

Several of the new gangsters were a little confused and were still wondering why Brother Long was so angry.

The other few gangsters who had experienced the six-hour tragedy before had their faces pale and their eyes dull, accepting their upcoming tragic fate.

Zeng Hailong still felt puzzled. He glanced at the previous restaurant owner.

It was because the restaurant owner was too slow to pay the protection fee that Zeng Hailong delayed here for some time, so he was caught on the spot by Zhou Lei and others.

"And you, come here too!"

Zeng Hailong forcibly roped in the restaurant owner.

The restaurant owner looked confused, but because of Zeng Hailong's intimidation, he didn't dare to say anything. He could only let his waiters take care of the restaurant first, and he followed obediently.

Zhou Leiyi frowned: "You are the regular customer I am entertaining. What do you mean by forcibly dragging the restaurant owner in? Put him back!"

Zeng Hailong grinned: "Hey!"

The restaurant owner didn't know that he had escaped from hell in just a few seconds. Zhou Lei's conscience found out at the last moment, otherwise he would have to endure the same torture as these gangsters.

A group of people walked into the experience store.

"Everyone is a regular customer, please help yourself."

Zhou Lei served with a smile throughout the process and guided everyone to pay.

Zeng Hailong sighed, just like a normal gang fight, he first prepared himself mentally before entering the game cabin.

…

…

Wednesday, March 5th.

Chen She and Zhang Sirui came to the experience store again.

The difference from before is that this time the car is filled with the physical Mewtwo from "Wandering in the Garden".

Chen She was fully mentally prepared for the situation in the experience store.

Needless to say, it will definitely be empty and deserted again!

At present, it seems that the stamina of Mewtwo in "The Ember Will Go Out" is a bit too strong, and the effect of dissuading people from quitting is fully achieved, exceeding Chen She's expectations.

This made Chen She a little worried.

Because if you want to plug this huge gap, you must require the sales of Mewtwo "Wandering in the Garden" to be higher than expected.

In fact, Chen She was not completely sure about this. He just completely improved the Mewtwo of "Castle Escape" based on advanced design concepts. But whether he could achieve the effect of turning decay into magic is unclear. Easy to say.

After all, some classics are the result of the right time, place, and people coming together. Even if latecomers surpass the original work in all aspects, it will be difficult to bring the same feeling to players at the beginning.

What should I do if "Wandering in the Garden" becomes obsolete?

Chen She could only shake his head, not thinking about that much for the time being.

When we arrived at the entrance of the experience store, it was exactly the same as when we left. It had been open for 5 days and it was still deserted, with no customers coming.

At this time, the experience store had not officially opened. Chen She directed Zhou Lei and several store employees to remove the physical version of Mewtwo from the car and place it in each Mewtwo game cabin.

Chen She asked Zhou Lei: "There shouldn't be anything special happening these days when I'm away, right?"

Zhou Lei hesitated for a moment: "Mr. Chen, what specific special circumstances do you mean?"

Before Chen She had time to explain, he heard uniform footsteps coming from outside the experience store.

I saw Zeng Hailong at the front, and behind him was a neat queue. Young guys with colorful hair and tattoos lined up in a queue and entered the experience store in an orderly manner.

Zeng Hailong was startled when he saw Chen She. But he quickly calmed down, greeted Zhou Lei, and then directed everyone to pay in an orderly manner and lie down in the Mewtwo game cabin one by one.

Everyone's face was full of joy, as if they were going to die in the next second.

Chen She was a little puzzled and looked at Zhou Lei: "What's going on?"

Zhou Lei smiled and explained: "Mr. Chen, didn't you ask us to treat repeat customers well? These are our repeat customers. Zeng Hailong performed particularly well in attracting customers to the door. I am considering whether to give him some rebates as a reward."
