Chapter 622: Six hundred and seventeen, coming and going, it’s all business.

But they all understood that they no longer had such an opportunity.

It was impossible for Gu Chen to ever find himself without someone capable by his side.

At this time, Gu Chen began to contact a renovation crew.

After Tang Xinyi had moved everything away, he needed to rush to get that renovation done.

Her storefront was not small, and the renovation would take some time to complete.

After all, there was no kitchen or anything of the sort, all of these were projects.

About an hour later, when Gu Chen had finished with the bustling activities,

he drove back to the entrance of the bar.

There he saw the four college students had already been waiting there for quite some time.

After getting out of the car, Gu Chen went inside the bar to retrieve the thousand custom-made flyers.

When he handed these out to them, they were all amazed by the flyers before them.

They had never seen flyers like this, appearing so unique.

"Director Gu, how should we give these out? Can we just stuff them in people’s hands?" one of the boys asked Gu Chen.

Gu Chen found the question very interesting when he heard it.

"Yes, just stuff it to them, no need to say anything."

He felt that this agent-like handoff would be quite amusing.

After hearing what Gu Chen had said, they began doing as he had instructed.

Gu Chen called a car for them and sent all four directly to the mall.

The flyers wouldn’t take very long to hand out, only a thousand in total.

Four people, two hundred fifty each, would definitely be able to finish before dusk.

They just needed to come back by eight in the evening.

As there were still two hours left until two in the afternoon,

Gu Chen had nothing else to do, his mind pondering over how to deal with staff meals at the bar in the future.

Working from eight at night until four in the afternoon the next day,

it would be impossible not to eat anything during such an extended period.

And since there was no kitchen in the bar, as the dance hall never had one,

Gu Chen was contemplating only one issue: whether to use Qiwei Vegetarian as the canteen in the future.

In that case, they could directly provide meals for the staff of the bar from Qiwei Vegetarian.

But this, in fact, was no solution at all.

Sooner or later, the bar would need to offer various snacks and fruits.

All of these were methods to increase sales.

Fruits and snacks were the easy part because even though there was no kitchen in the bar, there was a place to process them.

This processing area was for cutting fruits into platters and placing them on dishes.

It was also for pouring packaged retail snacks into plates.

Gu Chen felt these things were not important; the important part was fried food and such.

Gu Chen mulled it over, wondering if it was feasible to construct a small kitchen in the bar.

He went to look at the storeroom in the bar.

At this time, the storeroom was filled with various light fixtures.

They were all custom ordered by Gu Chen, and some of the plates even shone brightly.

Gu Chen had put in a lot of effort for these things.

Such light pollution was the most effective at increasing sales.

The more expensive the drink, the more appealing it looked; cheaper drinks either had no lights or only dim decorations.

This phenomenon also reflected a form of social comparison: the more lights emanating from a table, the more it signified that the patrons at that table were the wealthiest clients in the venue.

Including today, Gu Chen had instructed the four college students to distribute the flyers specifically to two types of people.

One type was the idle members of society.

Loafing around, those are the people who seem to have nothing to do every day.

To Gu Chen, such people were still very useful.

In a bar where space is free, they could even stand from beginning to end, certainly animating the atmosphere.

Gu Chen even made a point to create five standing spots during the renovation.

A standing spot is just a high round table with nothing else, somewhere to place drinks on.

Its purpose is to provide a place for these loafers to put down their drinks when they fancy something.

Moreover, these idle folk always come in groups, making the bar look much livelier.

Furthermore, handing out flyers to those who looked rich was even simpler.

These people were the real potential consumers.

When they came to spend, they could derive their sense of superiority from comparing themselves to the social loafers.

This sort of trade-off really was fitting no matter how you calculated it.

It was, after all, just business, this give and take.

Gu Chen took a brief look around here.

The space in the storage room was actually not abundant; it was unrealistic to expect a kitchen to be carved out of it.

Besides the storage room, there were only the private rooms left.

The dance hall did have private rooms, they came with the place.

It goes without saying what Liu Dahai was planning with private rooms in a place for dancing.

But Gu Chen had no need for those private rooms; if it really came down to it, he would have to transform the upstairs rooms into a restaurant and maybe make a few break rooms or such, giving the staff a place to rest their feet.

After planning out these matters, Gu Chen left the storage area.

When he got outside, Gu Chen suddenly found that people had already started to arrive.

It was none other than the woman who was the first to apply for a job here that day.

Gu Chen had a very vivid memory of her; she was called Wei Dahong.

"You’re quite early," Gu Chen said to her with a smile.

Checking the time, it was just 1:30 in the afternoon.

There was still half an hour before the time he asked them to gather.

"Came to take a look in advance," Wei Dahong said to Gu Chen.

Looking at Gu Chen, she somehow felt a bit embarrassed to meet his gaze.

Gu Chen found it slightly strange, but he couldn’t be bothered to ask.

"Then have a seat and rest a while, we’ll talk once everyone’s here."

Just as Gu Chen finished speaking, a few more people walked in from outside.

It was the three sisters with dyed hair from the other day.

"Director Gu, good afternoon!" the sister with purple hair said cheerfully.

Gu Chen nodded in response.

It looked like it wouldn’t take long for everyone to arrive.

About twenty minutes passed.

After these twenty minutes, all the people recruited that day had arrived.

A total of twenty people.

Among them, four were in marketing, one was a bartender, and the rest were waitstaff and atmosphere group; awkwardly, no cleaners had been recruited, so who would be in charge of cleaning tonight was still a question.

These people didn’t know each other at all, each sitting separately on two boss cards.

Gu Chen stood there watching them.

Checking the time, it was two minutes to two.

Could it be that Broken Brow and his group were going to be late? That would be something new; they never used to be late.

As he was thinking this in his mind.

Suddenly, six people entered from outside, exactly Broken Brow and his lot.
