Chapter 1173: Chapter 1170: Beauty Is So Obedient, Prepared Lots of Cosplay Outfits!
"Sounds interesting, so what’s the name of this restaurant company?" Luofeng asked.
Luofeng is actually someone who likes win-win cooperation, right? Because Luofeng knows one truth: One person can’t make all the money; cooperation is the more stable way.
Why is it that in many companies, the founders start as the ones in charge and the largest shareholders?
Yet as the company grows bigger and bigger, the founders’ shares are reduced to just a few percentage points or ten percent.
That’s because one person can’t make all the money.
Only by sharing the benefits, can your benefits further expand.
Giving up power is really important.
Why was Genghis Khan able to conquer so much territory back in the day? Wasn’t it because he shared the profits? When his generals conquered lands, they only turned over a part, the rest was theirs to keep.
This gave those generals great motivation.
Lu Yaqing said, "The company we’re signing with is called Blooming Wealth Company, but the specific restaurant brand name will be decided after signing!"
"One moment!" Luofeng took out his phone and sent the company’s name to the Zhongyi Tang team, asking them to investigate it.
"I’ve already asked someone to investigate this company, we should have results soon!" Luofeng said.
Lu Yaqing sat in Luofeng’s arms, her face slightly reddened as she leaned against his shoulder.
Luofeng was getting more and more excessive.
He already had the match point in hand.
Luofeng sniffed her fragrant hair and said, "Did you take a shower?"
Lu Yaqing’s face turned even redder, and she softly answered yes.
"Do you have my slippers?" Luofeng asked again.
"Of course, I have prepared slippers and towels for you, as well as some men’s products!" Lu Yaqing quickly said.
Luofeng was also very gratified.
Even if Luofeng seldom comes to see her.
But whenever she moves, her home would always be ready with things for Luofeng to use upon his arrival.
"Did you prepare the things I like?" Luofeng grinned mischievously.
Lu Yaqing, of course, knew what that was.
She blushed a little before pulling Luofeng to her bedroom.
Obviously not starting the show directly.
She opened the closet and pointed, "Just these, bought them casually!"
As Luofeng looked towards the wardrobe, there were many stockings, in all sorts of sizes.
And a few cos outfits, like maid and flight attendant ones.
Luofeng hugged her in his arms, still feeling very gratified inside.
How can anyone not love a woman who is so understanding without needing any arrangements?
"You, when you’re at home, you don’t need to wear makeup, you’re already beautiful!" Luofeng kindly reminded, after all, with Yaqing’s 95-point looks, she really didn’t need makeup.
After saying that, Luofeng pulled Lu Yaqing to the main bathroom.
Normally, it only takes Luofeng a quarter-hour to bathe, but with the young lady’s help.
For some reason, it took a full 45 minutes to finish.
Though Lu Yaqing had bathed, she helplessly took another one.
Incidentally, she showed off her skills at holding the bathtub.
And what about the water hitting three thousand miles?
In the living room, Lu Yaqing gently held a hairdryer to dry Luofeng’s hair.
The look and posture of women after such moments are really the prettiest.
Very gentle, with a feeling of a well-behaved cat.
Luofeng sat on the sofa, enjoying Lu Yaqing drying his hair, then picked up his phone to check the message from Zhongyi Tang.
On the Zhongyi Tang side, they had already investigated the company’s information.
As the saying goes, one wouldn’t know without checking, and checking gives quite a shock.
This company really has significant issues, right?
It’s completely toxic.
Originally, Luofeng thought the company genuinely wanted to cooperate with Lu Yaqing on a win-win basis, but after the investigation, Luofeng found his initial thinking was too naive.
This company indeed intends to cooperate with celebrities in a win-win scenario, but its goal is to collaborate with celebrities to play people for a fool.
Under this company, there are already multiple stars involved in these so-called win-win collaborations, such as Chen He? Also, the Xianhe Zhuang Hotpot opened by another star, and more.
The restaurants opened by these stars all have the shadow of Blooming Wealth Company behind them.
"I’ve investigated this company’s situation; their company has problems. I suggest you not cooperate with them!" Luofeng said.
Lu Yaqing nodded, "Okay! Then we won’t cooperate!"
Lu Yaqing didn’t even ask why, just nodded and agreed.
After agreeing, Lu Yaqing asked, "What issues does this company have?"
Expressing agreement first and then asking about the situation.
And asking about the situation before agreeing are two completely different probabilities.
The former is unconditionally agreeing with Luofeng.
The latter is to assess the situation before analyzing the problem.
Lu Yaqing chose to unconditionally agree with Luofeng.
"This company specializes in collaborating with celebrities to set up restaurant businesses, and then let people join to play them for a fool!" Luofeng said.
Luofeng continued, "For instance, a certain Kai’s Phoenix Hotpot, where the franchise fee is 280,000, the deposit is another 20,000, which totals 300,000. According to our investigation, since the establishment of Phoenix Hotpot to date, there are already over 200 stores, and they are rapidly expanding, meaning the franchise fee alone is 60 million! The key is, after joining, you still need to pay a 2% service fee of the monthly turnover, not 2% of the profit, it’s 2% of the revenue. In real terms, it sounds like a lot!"
The funds Luofeng deals with are in units of billions over the long term, making 60 million not look much.
But for the average wealthy person, 60 million is indeed a lot.
Even for big stars, 60 million is quite a lot.
Moreover, the 60 million is just the franchise fee, and like a deposit, it’s a one-time fool’s fee, with continuous branding service fees to follow!
The reason they can profit and fool people is why these celebrities get involved in the restaurant business, right?
Actually, there’s another thing Luofeng didn’t mention, that is, businesses that establish themselves this year and start franchise operations within the same year are illegal.
"Yaqing, take a look at these materials yourself, whether it’s Phoenix Hotpot or Xianhe Zhuang, during their subsequent operations, they might encounter some issues. They are comfortable collecting the franchise fee, but once the reputation takes a hit, all they do is hire internet trolls to clean things up, then delete posts!" Luofeng lamented.
"But online, there’s no bad reputation, while your franchised store locally already has a bad reputation. This doesn’t affect their entire brand, but it greatly affects franchised stores all over!" Luofeng said, "Speaking realistically, you might not have good business, but it doesn’t stop more fools from wanting to join them!"
"Or you might say you can do a field inspection? Sorry, they have ways to deal with you!" Luofeng helplessly laughed.
