"These are the ones who are deeply involved. Having so many people is definitely enough, but we also need ordinary participants, that is, people who come to join in the fun. Where are these people?" Xiang Yang asked.
"Don't worry, it's all right. We have contacted various travel companies in Longcheng and several surrounding cities, and they are all promoting it vigorously, especially in Longcheng. Almost all the public billboards have been rented by me just for this event." Li Chao said.
Xiang Yang looked towards the east of the beach, where was a huge construction area. Li Chao's seaside hotel was already under construction, but because the workload was quite large, the construction was still in progress. After completion, it would have to be renovated, so it would definitely not be able to open for business in a short period of time. In other words, it would definitely not be able to open for business before the burning of the pagoda and the fire dragon lanterns officially began.
"Has the accommodation problem been solved?" Xiang Yang asked.
"Don't even think about accommodation. When tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of tourists come in, it will definitely be impossible to accommodate them all. We can only try to arrange the activities to end on the same day, let the tourists go back on the same day, and try to solve the problem of tourists' meals." Li Chao said.
Xiang Yang nodded. In fact, he knew it was useless to ask this question.
"I feel much more at ease knowing that you are keeping an eye on things, Brother Chao." Xiang Yang said with a smile, "The accommodation problem is easy to solve. We have already paid tens of millions. At worst, we can spend a few million more to buy some tents. These can be rented out for a long time. We may be able to make some money in the future. But we have to solve the problem of food. Otherwise, I am afraid our future will be difficult."
In fact, Longcheng City also attaches great importance to this matter and has given very strong support.
After all, the establishment of a tourist area will have a huge impact on the economy of the entire Longcheng City.
Xiang Yang was talking to Li Chao.
A group of fat and big-eared young men came over.
"Hey, brother, did you just get off this cruise ship? Is this cruise ship still going out to sea? Where can I buy the tickets?" A young man with a bowl cut and a fair face asked Xiang Yang.
"Who are you?" Xiang Yang looked at these people and found that he didn't know any of them. He couldn't help but ask curiously.
"We came here to play and saw a yacht on the sea." said the young man with the bowl-cut hair.
When Xiang Yang heard this, he immediately realized that it was a tourist.
"Where are you from? These yachts do not have business licenses yet, so they cannot engage in business for the time being. I am the captain of that fishing boat. If you want to go out to sea to play, why don't you go on my fishing boat? I will take you out for free." Xiang Yang said politely.
"Are you soliciting customers?" The fatter young man with a flat head next to the fat young man with a bowl cut said with a smile, "We just saw you guys get off the yacht. You got hundreds of people off at once. If this isn't business, what is it?"
Xiang Yang glanced at Li Chao.
Li Chao smiled and said, "I am the owner of these cruise ships. This person is my friend and also a shareholder of these cruise ships. The people who just got off the cruise ship are basically our own employees or friends. They are all non-business in nature."
Li Chao speaks very politely, but he has a magical aura about him and he is particularly friendly and convincing when he speaks.
When they heard Li Chao say this, they all became polite.
"So you are the boss." The fat young man with a flat head said with a smile: "We are traveling here by car from Liancheng. We have never been out to sea, so we want to go out to sea and see for ourselves."
"Liancheng?" Xiang Yang said with a smile, "That's not close. Did you come here specially to play, or are you just passing by?"
“I originally wanted to go to Silver Beach, but I passed by here, so I ended up here first.” said the young man with the pot-cut hair.
"You're here at the right time. What's fun in Silver Beach? The beach is so crowded, and you have to queue up to go into the sea. To ride a sea scooter you have to go several miles away from the beach. The prices there are also very high. It costs several thousand yuan to stay overnight, and a meal is at least a thousand yuan. It's not as fun as our Qinglong Bay. I'll take you to rent a fishing boat for a few hundred yuan. When you get to the sea, you can just stare blankly and someone will row the boat for you. It's manual and there's no mechanical noise. What do you think?" Zhang Qicheng said.
Xiang Yang was stunned. Was the person in front of him really Zhang Qicheng
However, Xiang Yang soon stopped finding it strange.
These are the earliest tourists to Qinglongwan.
Originally, I was planning to visit a tourist attraction of the same nature as mine.
Even if Zhang Qicheng was not enthusiastic, Xiang Yang himself would be more enthusiastic.
Xiang Yang did make a lot of money at sea.
But on the shore, he invested most of his wealth but didn't make a penny.
The same is true for Li Chao and Zhang Qicheng.
Through Xiang Yang, they made a lot of money at sea, but compared with what they invested on the shore, what they earned at sea was really a drop in the bucket.
That is why they attach great importance to every tourist. Even if they cannot make money from tourists now, they will spare no effort to earn a good reputation.
Moreover, the people who came this time came from inland cities, which are places that their propaganda methods cannot reach. If they have fun this time, they may bring other friends here next time. With friends bringing friends, after a long period of accumulation, it may not be impossible for them to lay a foundation in the inland first.
"If you want to go out to sea, you can only rent a small fishing boat, but if you just want to have fun on the cruise ship, I can take you on now." Li Chao said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, these people were a little disappointed.
"Forget it, let's find a place to stay first, play on the beach, and decide whether to go out to the sea later. Where is the nearest hotel here?" asked the young man with a flat head.
"The nearest hotel?" Xiang Yang blinked and looked at the huge construction site not far away. Of course, the nearest hotel was here, but it had not been built yet.
Of course, this cannot be said.
"We have an exquisitely decorated homestay here, with various ocean-themed rooms. This is one of our features. Do you want to take a look?" Xiang Yang asked with a smile.
"What are the characteristics of your place? Where is it? Can you take us to see it first?" asked the young man with a flat head.
Xiang Yang nodded, "Of course."
Then Xiang Yang looked at Fang Youqun, "Fang Youqun, take these tourists to see the rooms."
During that period of time, many villagers made a small profit through projects such as diving, and many villagers had the idea of renovating their houses.
It happened that Qinglongwan was officially designated as a tourism development zone at that time. Village chief Zuo and Xiang Yang promoted to the villagers every day that they wanted to renovate the houses into suites so that they could be rented out as hotels in the future. Therefore, many people in the village renovated one or two vacant rooms to apartment standards and waited to rent them out.
