Chapter 391 The prototype of monopoly
"well."
As soon as he mentioned this, the boss sighed, took a long drag on his cigarette, and began to pour out his bitterness to Chen Mo.
"Brother, you have something to do with me. Business is good, but it's not profitable!"
The boss shook his head and said.
"Boss, are you kidding me? If business is good, can we still make money?"
Chen Mo said speechlessly.
"Why am I kidding you like this? My Internet cafe could have installed three thousand machines, but due to technical reasons, I can only install two hundred."
"This is a prime location in a university town! The rent is very expensive!"
"Every month, after deducting rent, computer costs, commercial water and electricity, etc., if I'm lucky, I'll have a thousand yuan left over. If I'm not lucky, I might even end up paying extra!"
Maybe it was because he had been holding it in for a long time and there was no one he could talk to. When the owner of the Internet cafe caught Chen Mo, he started to pour out all his grief.
After listening to the boss's words, Chen Mo finally understood why Internet cafes are still not making money in this era.
It turns out that the network technology in 2000 was too poor and there was no integrated fiber optic transceiver.
Internet cafes rely entirely on pulling network cables to complete network connections.
In an Internet cafe, each machine needs to pull a single network cable. The limit of 200 cables can be pulled, and the price is also very expensive.
No wonder the boss said he couldn't make any money. It turned out to be a technical problem.
But this is good news for Chen Mo!
Because he can make integrated optical fiber transceivers!
As long as you understand the principle of this thing, you can just find an IT industry practitioner who understands hardware to build it.
Ma Teng doesn't need many such talents!
At this time, Chen Mo was crazy!
As long as the integrated fiber optic transceiver is built, the space that originally accommodated 200 computers can be directly expanded to 3,000, and the profit will directly increase by 15 times! And there is no need to pull 3,000 network cables, saving a lot of bandwidth costs!
"Boss, I see you are also a big business person. Since the Internet cafe business makes so little money, why don't you change hands?" Chen Mo said.
"I want to change hands too! But no one will take it if the price is too high. If the price is too low, I'll lose too much. Now I'm stuck in the situation. I feel so uncomfortable. I can only take one step at a time. Let’s check it out,” the boss said.
"How much do you want to pay? I have a relative who is quite interested in this area. I want to help him ask." Chen Mo said.
"I spent about 500,000 yuan to open this Internet cafe. No one was willing to take over the 400,000 yuan for plug-ins.
Seeing as I'm destined to be with you, brother, I'll make peace with you too.
My bottom line is 380,000. If it is lower, then I will really spend money on it in the past few years. "
The Internet cafe owner said.
"380,000, including everything and the business license?"
"Of course! I'm not going to do it anymore, why do I need those things?"
"Okay, I'll call and ask."
Chen Mo pretended to call and asked, and then said: "My relative said that he can give you 400,000, but you have to introduce him to your connections in the Internet cafe industry, because he is afraid that he will not do well and lose money."
"Are you kidding me?"
The boss said excitedly.
He has also been in this industry for a long time and knows that this industry is basically about losing money and making money.
Many people he knows are looking for someone to take over.
"Of course I'm not joking. Give me your account."
The boss quickly gave the account to Chen Mo.
Soon, I received a text message notification that 400,000 yuan had arrived.
"Oh, brother, you are really my savior!"
The boss held Chen Mo's hand and said with a cheerful smile.
Soon, the two completed the handover procedures.
At the same time, the boss gave Chen Mo the list and information of practitioners in the Internet cafe industry in Hong Kong City.
This information may not be worth much in the eyes of this Internet cafe owner, but in Chen Mo's eyes, it is definitely worth more than several hundred million!
At this time, Chen Mo just spent some time and added an extra 20,000 yuan to get it.
"Good luck to you, bro."
The boss waved and disappeared into the Internet cafe with satisfaction.
When leaving, the boss's eyes clearly looked like he was looking at a fool.
"I hope you won't regret it and vomit blood in the future."
Seeing the boss's proud expression, Chen Mo raised the corner of his mouth.
Before long, an Internet cafe license alone will be worth three to five million!
Not to mention such a large venue and 200 computers!
Going upstairs, Chen Mo slapped a contract directly in front of Gong Ziyuan.
"What is this?" Gong Ziyuan asked doubtfully.
"Transfer contract. I bought this Internet cafe." Chen Mo said calmly.
"ah?"
Gong Ziyuan was stunned for a moment.
In just a short time, Chen Mo actually bought an Internet cafe!
"This is just the beginning. This piece of information is from the Internet cafe practitioners in Hong Kong City. I plan to monopolize the Internet cafe market in Hong Kong City within half a year.
Monopolize the mainland university Internet café market within one year.
Within three years, the national Internet cafe market monopoly will be achieved. "
After saying that, Chen Mo called Chen Haonan directly: "Haonan, call the top management of the student loan company over. I have something to tell you."
Soon, Chen Haonan, Pheasant and his friends arrived at the Internet cafe.
Chen Mo laid out his plan to Chen Haonan.
Chen Haonan suddenly looked bitter.
"The student loan side is so busy that I can't get rid of it. I really can't participate in the Internet cafe business."
Only when he started his own company did Chen Haonan know what hard work meant.
There are a lot of miscellaneous things, big and small!
In the past, no matter how busy he was, he would find his brothers to drink, eat and pick up girls.
Now that he was busy with the girl stripping off her clothes and lying in front of him, he was not even interested in touching her.
The more this happened, the more Chen Haonan admired Chen Mo.
He is so tired just managing a company. Chen Mo has all kinds of companies under his name, but he is still so energetic every day!
"Then let Pheasant take over. The Internet cafe business is easier to manage. You need to have a reliable person to look after the place and stop people from making trouble.
Pheasant, please recruit some reliable boys and college students who have signed contracts with our loan company, and prepare to expand the Internet cafe business.
I'll give you whatever you want for the initial capital budget, but the premise is that I ask you to monopolize the Hong Kong Internet cafe market within half a year! "
"Can it be done?"
Chen Mo said seriously.
"able!"
Pheasant gritted his teeth and said.
Who doesn’t want to make progress?
Who doesn’t want to be a boss?
Now this is your opportunity!
Pheasant decided to fight!
Then, Chen Mo called Ma Teng.
"Xiao Ma, help me with something."
"Boss, tell me."
"Help me design an Internet cafe management system. And help me get some hardware."
Integrated optical fiber transceivers can only work in conjunction with the Internet cafe management system.
Therefore, Chen Mo not only asked Ma Teng to develop an integrated optical fiber transceiver, but also asked him to help him develop a system.
"Uh... Boss, software like the Internet cafe management system is a big project, and the development cycle may be very long. Are you in a hurry to get it?"
"Just give me a simple one that can manage the time spent online, manage the expenses incurred during the online time, and have the function of getting on and off the computer.
Oh, by the way, we must make sure that guests cannot shut down the Internet cafe management system through the shutdown process. "
Chen Mo clearly remembered that the first time he went to an Internet cafe to surf the Internet, he discovered a bug in the Internet cafe management system.
Through the computer management process, you can actually turn off the Internet cafe management system, thereby achieving the purpose of free Internet access!
This bug allowed Chen Mo to use the Internet for free for three months!
Think about it, if Chen Mo's Internet cafe business expands, how much money will be lost if such a vicious bug appears?
"OK, no problem."
"For subsequent functions, you can ask people to slowly add them."
“So what hardware do you want?”
"This thing is called an integrated optical fiber transceiver..."
Chen Mo described the functions of the integrated optical fiber transceiver.
"This is easy!"
Although this is a new product, all the technologies used have already been released and are just combined together.
Ma Teng can even do it by himself.
"How long does it take to get it done?"
"A simple-function Internet cafe management system can be completed in three days, and an integrated optical fiber transceiver can be completed in one day."
"Okay, I'll come to you and ask for it in three days."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Mo couldn't help but sigh, this is the benefit of having a foundation!
If you start from scratch, just raising funds, developing management systems, and integrating optical fiber transceivers, these three things will probably take at least a year!
After explaining everything about the Internet cafe, Chen Mo just wanted to take a rest.
Over at Moyuan Entertainment, Wang Chao called.
"Boss, there are two people here who claim to be your relatives. You may need to come to the company to deal with it."
