After the arrangement, Zhang Juan came to the milk tea shop next to him, ordered a drink, and observed the situation of the shared phone booth while drinking.
When Ruan Guangjian was painting before, the phone booth had already gathered a lot of popularity. Now that the phone booth is officially completed, people can't wait to take pictures.
Not to mention, everyone is quite talented.
Everyone consciously lined up and took pictures with Modest painted outside the phone booth one by one.
During this process, some people originally planned to join in the fun, but they saw various new accessories in the phone booth through the glass, and suddenly became curious.
"There seems to be a lot of stuff in there."
"That looks like a drink machine, is it free?"
"For 10 yuan, you can go in and drink whatever you want? It must cost extra."
"And the gashapon machine, there are two microphones! What do you mean, can you sing here?"
"What's that thing under the folding seat? I've never seen it before."
"It feels a lot richer than before. Please let me know. I want to go in and have a look."
"Hey, hey, this is the queue."
"Divided into two teams, they are not the same thing! You take pictures, we go in and experience, without delaying each other."
"Then what should I do if I want to take pictures and experience..."
The crowd was noisy for a while, and soon separated into two columns.
One column is ready to take a photo with Modeste's painting outside, and the other column is waiting in line to enter the phone booth to experience it.
No one entered the phone booth before because there were so few things in the phone booth that there was nothing to experience.
But now there are more things, and there are more original paintings outside. After the force is improved, more people are willing to enter.
Everyone looks at their faces, and phone booths are no exception.
The first to enter is still a couple.
After all, it would be quite strange to go in alone in this kind of place, not only lonely, but also surrounded by people outside.
After the two entered, they happily closed the door and closed the curtains.
Meanwhile, people outside saw the remaining time on the small display: 15 minutes.
In this way, people in line can roughly know how long it will be until their turn.
Of course, there are still flaws in this function. For example, it can only know how long it will take for the people currently in the phone booth to come out, but it cannot accurately know the estimated time of the entire queue.
Zhang Wang silently took note of this, and was ready to launch a function such as queuing to get a number or estimating the queue time.
Inside the phone booth, the couple began to explore the little world curiously.
"Hey, two drinks, can you choose a cold drink or a hot drink?"
"Can you sing for free?"
"Wow, it's only 10 yuan for 15 minutes, so worth it!"
"There are also gashapons... It's a pity that the gashapons are not free."
"What are you thinking, no matter how free the gashapon is, the merchant will lose money."
"Sing a song?"
"Can you do it, a little ashamed."
"It's okay, the sound from the mall outside can't get in at all, which means the sound insulation is good."
The price of 10 yuan for 15 minutes seems inflated at first, but after adding so many new features, it is suddenly not high, and it is even a good deal!
But for Zhang Li, there is still a lot to gain.
Drinks are delivered only once. Customers sing here for 15 minutes and get two drinks, and if they sing for an hour, they get two drinks. If they are thirsty, they will buy another drink.
Moreover, the cost of beverages in the beverage machine is not high. Take hot drinks as an example, 1000 grams of instant coffee or milk tea raw materials can make almost 50 cups of 250ml hot drinks, and each cup costs only 50 cents, and the more raw materials you buy, the cheaper it is. lower cost.
Even if you include water bills, electricity bills, etc., it is still profitable to sell a drink for two yuan.
Of course, don't force the taste.
What's more, the gashapon can earn some extra money.
The two picked up the microphone on the table and found a small box with a free microphone sleeve next to it. After entering, they were given two free of charge, and they had to be charged for use.
The accompaniment melody sounded, and the two sang.
…
Outside the phone booth, everyone in the queue could vaguely hear faint music coming from inside.
"Ah? Did you really sing?"
"This... how long does it take to sing?"
"Fuck, they renewed the fee again, and the remaining time has become half an hour!"
"...Let's go, how long does it take to wait!"
Seeing that the couple who entered is about to start a protracted battle, the remaining time on the display is just half an hour to start, and many people who originally wanted to queue up to experience it gave up and dispersed.
However, Zhang Li, who was sitting in the drink shop next to him, saw this scene, but his heart was instantly at ease.
If all the people who go in come out quickly, it's not good, it means that the phone booth is not attractive enough to them!
But now, the first couple will sing directly in it for half an hour, which shows that the mode of sharing the phone booth itself is no problem!
The rest of the phone booths will be produced soon, and will be put into major shopping malls in Jingzhou...
This is a long-term cash cow!
When all 20 shared phone booths have been set up, and the money earned has recovered the cost, I will report the good news to President Pei as soon as possible!
…
…
In the afternoon, on a taxi from Jingzhou Airport to Shenhua Haojing Office Building.
A young man opened the writer's background app on his mobile phone, created a new chapter, and then very skillfully typed the words "leave note" in the title position.
"Because I went to Jingzhou to participate in the first online author workshop hosted by the end point, I asked for a day off, please let me know."
"Also, ask for a ticket!"
After finishing typing in one go, the young man put away his mobile phone and casually looked through the window of the taxi to enjoy the scenery of Jingzhou.
A few minutes later, he took out his phone again, opened the app at the destination, and checked the reader's comments under this chapter.
"Crap, I thought it was updated!"
"Pigeon Jing has asked for leave again? Count how many times you have asked for leave this month?"
"It's not even 3 o'clock in the afternoon. You can't code at night?"
"Yes, there has been progress. The previous few times were all classmates getting married, and I don't know why all your classmates got married together. This time, the reason is good, and make persistent efforts!"
"Frequently asking for leave is a harbinger of unfinished endings, say, is this book going to be unfinished again!"
"Damn, don't, I just caught up with the progress, you have only written 600,000 words in this book, you are a child!"
"Ask for leave to ask for a ticket, shameless!"
"Have you seen this ticket? It's stabbed, and I won't give it to you if I tear it up!"
Looking at the indignant comments of readers, the young man smiled slightly, which is already accustomed to it.
Cui Geng, one of the members of the author's study class at the end of this time, has the pseudonym "Tentacle Monster Who Desperately Code Words", but this pseudonym is a perfect irony.
Usually a stable beast, never ask for leave to see your mood, every time you ask for leave, you will be shameless to ask for a ticket.
Moreover, two or three books have been written unfinished, which can be said to be well-known.
But every time he opens a book, his ideas are very good, and the rhythm in the early stage is perfectly grasped and fascinating. Although readers scolded each time, they could only watch helplessly.
Cui Geng sighed silently: "Hey, I'm telling the truth this time. I really came to attend the class. Why don't you believe it?"
There are diligent and salted fish writers, and Cui Geng belongs to that category, especially salted fish.
Because he has no motivation.
In the year he graduated from college, he felt the material pressure of the real world for the first time, so he decided to write online articles to make a living.
As a result, just after half a year of writing, the family was demolished.
After a while, Cui Genglang felt empty again, so he decided to change his mind and start a new life. This time, he must finish writing a book that will congratulate him.
As a result, several other suites in the family were demolished.
Cui Geng often sighs with emotion, life is such a good thing.
Tell me, who is in the mood to write a book
So, Cui Geng's current state is everything.
This time, he came to Jingzhou with the purpose of traveling.
He didn't know what the class was going to learn, but as soon as he heard that there was a basic salary and food and housing, he immediately signed up.
Unexpectedly, it was chosen.
It is estimated that there are not many authors with good final results...
In fact, Cui Geng was writing indefinitely at the earliest. As a result, the name of the unfinished end was known not only by readers, but also by editors. Every time the book opened, many old readers came to spit.
In desperation, Cui Geng, who was not short of money, decided to change the platform and start to free himself again.
So, by accident, it came to the end of being relatively friendly to middle-level authors.
"I heard that there are quite a few interesting places in Jingzhou."
"Exactly, this time I can take an excuse to attend a study class and have a good time in Jingzhou for a few days."
"I have a legitimate reason to ask for leave, readers can't say anything, right?"
"I'm taking materials, and writing a book is a mental job. Playing more to keep your mind clear and happy will help you write better content."
"Everyone will understand!"
Just thinking about it, the Shenhua luxury scene has arrived.
Cui Geng got out of the car and took the elevator directly to the editorial office at the end.
Someone warmly received him and led him to the reception room.
Not long after, a group of horses came to the reception room, and the two started chatting.
During the chat, Cui Geng realized that he was the first author in the class to come to Jingzhou, which surprised him a bit.
On second thought, it is indeed, I just received the invitation yesterday, and I have arrived today, which is really fast.
The main reason is that he wants to use this reason for leave earlier, so he is so active.
After chatting for a while, a group of horses brought an agreement.
"This is the agreement for this online text class, and everyone must sign it."
"You can take a closer look at some of the details here, and sign if there are no problems."
"There will be a little bit of requirements for you here, but don't worry, they are all very basic requirements and won't be excessive."
Cui Geng was stunned: "Huh? Is there an agreement?"
It's pretty formal.
