To become the richest man from the beginning of the game

Chapter 501 Mr. Pei's Mind Map

Tuesday, October 4th.

In the office, Pei Qian was trying to make a simple mind map on the computer.

The content of the mind map is very simple, which is all the departments that may generate profits in Tenda so far, as well as some auxiliary and transactional departments.

The relationships among these sectors are complex and varied in nature.

Some make more money, some make less money, and some don't;

There are obvious superior-subordinate or linkage relations between some departments, while the connection between some departments is not so close;

The relationship between the profitable sector and the transactional sector also seems to be different.

A mind map, in layman's terms, is to write various key information in small boxes, and then use various lines to connect these key information and mark the relationship between them.

Pei Qian decided to use different colors and different lines to represent the status of each department and the relationship between departments.

The departments in the red box represent the departments that have already made a profit.

The sectors in the blue box represent the sectors that are not yet profitable and the situation is relatively optimistic.

The black lines represent the relationship between the two departments. For example, Moyu Food Delivery is actually providing fitness meals for the shared gym, and ROF installation and headwind logistics are basically in the state of Siamese twins;

The other is a red line, which represents a link between the two departments that has not yet occurred, but may arise.

Pei Qian's idea is very simple, that is to use this mind map to smooth out his thoughts, and at the same time predict possible departmental linkages in advance.

But after preliminary sorting out, Pei Qian quickly discovered that the situation didn't seem optimistic.

Judging from the situation on the picture, it is red everywhere, and only a few departments such as Moyu Takeaway, Headwind Logistics, and TPDb website remain unprofitable blue.

Moreover, the workload is much larger than I imagined!

All kinds of black lines are intricate, and after sorting out, you will find that the connections between certain departments are much more complicated than you imagined before.

What's more, there is a bug like OTTO Technology, which is related to almost all existing departments...

The dense black lines represent the irreparable relationship that has occurred between various departments, making the whole picture almost a net, with various small words for explanation, it looks very headache.

Pei Qian tried to draw a red line between two unrelated departments to predict the possible special relationship between them, but he collapsed after drawing a few lines.

Because it seems that there is a theoretical possibility of linkage between all departments!

Pei Qian can only try to imagine the worst situation after the linkage between the two departments, and mark it with a red line.

If there are some ambiguous and specious connections, don't mark them, because there are already too many lines, and if you draw them without screening, it will only disturb your sight.

Pei Qian looked at this diagram of the relationship between various departments that he spent two hours initially smoothing out, and couldn't help leaning back on the chair, putting his hand on his forehead.

"How did the situation develop like this..."

"It turns out that my company's situation has become so bad without knowing it?"

"Now I can't fully understand the intricate relationship between these departments."

If there are only three or five departments, the relationship between them will be very simple and can be straightened out soon.

But now there are more than a dozen departments, who knows which two of these departments will have some inexplicable linkage?

It is impossible for Pei Qian to ask the head of the department to report everything to himself for decision-making. In that case, it is impossible for Mr. Pei to have normal rest and entertainment time, and he would just deal with these trivial matters every day.

In the current situation, we can only focus on the big and let go of the small, and focus on a few key departments.

"If you look at it optimistically, the situation is actually not bad. I have lost money in the last cycle. I have slowly figured out the trick to losing money. It should be smoother and smoother in the future."

"Yesterday, the compensation students should have entered various departments. We will gather them next Saturday to conduct a thorough investigation of the situation in all departments."

"Using the intelligence of various departments spied on by the students in charge, and then perfecting this map, at least a preliminary understanding and early warning of all departments can be completed. Compared with before, the risk is well controlled..."

"This picture has too much content, it's useless to rush, let's improve it slowly."

Pei Qian carefully saved and backed up this picture, so that he can check it at any time, reflect on it at all times, and prevent possible dangers.

He couldn't help but feel that making losses seems to be becoming more and more a technical job...

Just as he turned off the mind map and was about to watch a drama and take a rest, there was a knock on the door outside.

After getting permission to "come in", Lin Canrong pushed the door cautiously and entered.

Pei Qian was a little surprised.

Why is Chef Lin here?

Lin Canrong is the manager of Mingyun Private Kitchen. Whether he worked in Moyu Internet Cafe before or was later transferred to Mingyun Private Kitchen, he always works conscientiously in his own position and has never been to Tenda's headquarters.

When there is something to report to Mr. Pei, he basically makes a phone call, or waits until Mr. Pei goes to Mingyun Private Kitchen for dinner.

What happened today, you came to the office?

"Is there anything going on at Mingyun Private Kitchen?" Pei Qian couldn't help but look forward to it.

Most of the profitable departments come to report work, and Pei Qian resists.

Because most of these departments come to ask Mr. Pei how to spend money, which is very annoying.

But Mingyun Private Kitchen is different.

Because so far, Mingyun Private Kitchen has no room for improvement!

It is full every day, and the seats have been reserved until next month. Although I am making money every month, there are only so many seats, and the income has long been fixed, and there is no possibility of any increase.

That's why Pei Qian felt that Manager Lin came this time because there was something wrong with Ming Yun's private kitchen, and the profitability was not good?

Really looking forward to it!

Lin Canrong was a little tangled, and paused for a while before saying: "Mr. Pei, you seem to have separated Moyu Takeaway, encouraged you to open branches and expand, and even set up a special 'food laboratory' to study new meals. ?”

The matter of Moyu Takeout was arranged two weeks ago. What Pei Qian considered was to allow Moyu Takeaway to open more and pay more, so he encouraged Moyu Takeaway to expand.

Two weeks have passed, and it should be in full swing.

Lin Canrong had worked as the person in charge of Moyu Takeaway before, and was Rui Yuchen's old superior, so he couldn't hide the situation of Moyu Takeaway from him.

But... Lin Canrong is now in charge of Mingyun's private kitchen, so what does it mean to come here because of the fish takeaway?

Pei Qian nodded in confusion: "There is such a thing, so what?"

Lin Canrong's expression seemed to have some small emotions: "Mr. Pei, this is not fair!"

"I know that Moyu takeaway is a very important layout in the group's industry. Temporary losses are for occupying the market, cultivating customers' consumption habits, and for greater profits... I have no idea about the expansion of Moyu takeaway. Opinion. But..."

Lin Canrong paused halfway through his words, and the corners of Pei Qian's mouth twitched involuntarily.

What is a temporary loss? It is for the purpose of occupying the market, cultivating customers' consumption habits, and for greater profits!

Don't over-interpret it!

Lin Canrong continued: "But Mingyun Private Kitchen is equally important! Why Moyu Takeaway has been losing money and can open so many branches quickly, while Mingyun Private Kitchen has been making profits and seats are always in short supply, but there is no need to open at all. What about the branch plan?"

"The quality of Mingfu's family banquet is not as good as that of Mingyun's private chef, but they have made a lot of money so far. This is enough to show that the consumption needs of high-end diners have not been fully met, and there is still room for profit!"

"Also, I think that Mingyun Private Kitchen should also set up a gourmet laboratory!"

"Moyu takeaway needs to think about how to better satisfy the tastes of the public, but Mingyun Private Kitchen also needs to think about how to satisfy the tastes of high-end diners!"

"So... this time I came with two requests."

"First, make good use of the brand name of 'No Name Restaurant', and plan and select a location to open a branch under the premise of ensuring quality."

"Second, we will also set up a gourmet laboratory dedicated to providing better dishes for diners."

Pei Qian remained silent.

White was happy.

It turned out that he proposed a money-making plan to me!

Manager Lin, if you ask so, then I will definitely not agree to you...

Your analysis is so correct.

Mingfu's family banquet can make money, and Mingyun's private kitchen has to queue up, which shows that the consumption needs of high-end diners have not been fully met.

But Moyu Takeaway can expand because it doesn’t make money!

Mingyun Private Kitchen has already made so much money, and you want me to open another one and continue to make money?

Give me less burden, ball!

In fact, Pei Qian was also very distressed. Since Ming Yun's private kitchen became popular, he can only eat at the scheduled time.

You can only go to the largest private room once a week, and you can only book it on the 20th once a month.

But Pei Qian would rather wait for a seat than open another store to make more money.

Want to open a branch now?Think too much, impossible!

Neither does the Food Lab.

Moyu takeaway is for the taste of the public, and the ingredients are relatively cheap, and most people don’t pursue that kind of fancy dishes. Opening a gourmet laboratory will bring little improvement.

But Mingyun Private Kitchen caters to high-end diners. If those powerful chefs are really allowed to set up a gourmet laboratory to research metaphysical dishes such as "fried air", they will definitely become more famous and out of control up!

Therefore, Pei Qian was very resistant to these two requests and could not agree.

Of course, Lin Canrong proposed that Mingyun Private Kitchen also open a gourmet laboratory, which is reasonable, and it is not very good to refuse bluntly, so he can only find a way to decline.

He thought for a moment, and said, "The opening of a branch means, do you think Mingyun Private Kitchen has reached its peak?"

Lin Canrong froze for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

Say you've done it to the extreme?

If you really think so, it is obviously complacent, because this industry will never be able to achieve the ultimate.

But to say that it is not perfect?

Lin Canrong feels that the service of Mingyun Private Kitchen is already better than most high-end restaurants. It cannot be said that there is no room for improvement, but the price-performance ratio is very low.

After repeated consideration, Lin Canrong said: "It's not the ultimate, but opening branches and gourmet laboratories can be regarded as a direction to pursue the ultimate, right?"

Pei Qian: "..."

It seems reasonable to say.

No, you can't be persuaded, you will make more money if you are persuaded!

Pei Qian coughed twice: "You can spend the money earned from Mingyun Private Kitchen freely, but you cannot open a branch."

"As for the gourmet laboratory...the current size of Mingyun Private Kitchen is impossible. The chefs have to cook for the guests every day. How can they have extra energy to do research?"

"Your first goal must be to ensure the customer's dining experience. In order to research new dishes to affect the chef's energy and reduce the quality of the dishes, it is a waste of money. Don't be so ambitious."

"At the most, you are allowed to take advantage of the research results of Moyu's food delivery laboratory."

Pei Qian has now learned a very good way to refuse.

For those questions that can come up with reasons for rejection, give reasons, even if they are a little far-fetched;

For those who can't think of a reason, it will be enforced.

Anyway, everyone's level of brain supplementation is so high now, even if Mr. Pei makes an unreasonable request, everyone will think it has other meanings, and if they mess up, they will only think that they don't understand enough.

It can be regarded as a windfall left over after being misinterpreted so many times...

Sure enough, the expression on Lin Canrong's face changed, as if he wanted to say a lot, but in the end he swallowed it silently, and turned it into a sentence: "Okay, Boss Pei."
