"Chihiro said there was some great news and asked me to look forward to it."
"Ok?"
"He also confirmed the situation on the fourth floor with me." Masha looked at the league secretary, "What do you think is going on?"
The league secretary shrugged.
At this time, the owner of the pizza shop suddenly spoke up: "Actually, I had an idea before, but I couldn't implement it. Maybe you can give it a try. It's similar to my idea of opening this shop, but it takes a different route."
Masha looked at his boss. He had a good impression of him after chatting with him just now, so he said, "Tell me, if I become rich with your idea, I will consider you as a shareholder with your idea, and your equity will be 10%."

Ah, it begins, Holy Monday
Hahahaha
Chapter 221: Advice from an entrepreneur who has failed repeatedly (Part )
The pizza shop owner smiled and handed Masha a business card. “Since you want to count my creative investment, you have to tell me your name first.”
Masha saw that the real name on the business card was ordinary, Wang Duoduo, which reminded him of a commentator from the Silver Bears League. But the real name was printed very small, and the larger one was the Weibo name: Yuejiang Greedy Fish.
Masha handed his business card to the Youth League Secretary and said to the pizza owner, "My name is Masha, the top scorer in the college entrance examination. The girls all call me Doctor."
When he heard the title "Doctor", the League Secretary raised his head and glanced at Masha.
The pizza shop owner raised an eyebrow and said, "Girls? Looks like you've found a maid for the maid shop?"
"Yes." Masha nodded.
"It's really enviable. Let me continue with my idea. I'm running this shop now. Although there are not many customers, the customer base is very stable and there are many returning customers. Stores that focus on atmosphere are generally like this. This girl mentioned Suzhou and Hangzhou. I have a friend in Suzhou and Hangzhou who also does this. His store is at the foot of the Faxi Temple Mountain. The road at the door is the road to climb the mountain to Faxi Temple. Lingyin Temple is also nearby."
"Oh, this place is great." Masha agreed. In fact, he didn't know what Faxi Temple or Lingyin Temple were. He just guessed that it was some famous temple.
The boss, Yuejiang Greedy Fish, continued, "When he opened that restaurant, in order to highlight his personality, he wrote all the menus by hand, and also set a lot of overbearing rules, such as turning off the stove when the food was served quickly. Yes, if a customer complained about the slow serving, he would turn off the stove and stop cooking. Of course, in order to avoid this kind of situation, his restaurant always serves food very quickly."
"Wait a minute," the League Secretary interrupted the boss, "You spoke too quickly. I didn't understand your logic. Let me sort it out. What you mean is that your friend has set a tyrannical rule of 'turn off the fire if you ask for more food', which means that if one customer asks for more food, all other customers' food will not be served."
"Yes, until the urging customer leaves."
“And his restaurant serves food very quickly?”
"Yeah, think about it, what if a customer is really impatient and urges us? The boss can personally deal with those who are just urging us to serve for fun, and those who are deliberately urging us to serve on TikTok can be beaten up and thrown out. But if there are really customers who are not making trouble and are getting impatient, wouldn't that be embarrassing? Should we put out the fire or not? If we put it out, we will offend all the customers in the restaurant, and if we don't put it out, we will lose our dignity. So we have to serve the dishes at the speed of light."
The league secretary laughed and said, "Is there such a thing? So he is just pretending to be like, 'I just want to take my time and do a good job,' but that's not the case at all, right?"
"Yes, this highlights the spirit of craftsmanship." The owner Yuejiang Tanchiyu also laughed, "Our chef is not really that irritable, this is just a setting."
"My friend's shop has many such settings, but in order to enhance the sense of reality, he has used some of them for real. For example, the toilet in his shop is only for employees and cannot be rented out. If customers want to use the toilet, they have to walk five minutes on the mountain road to a public toilet next to a stream at the foot of the mountain.
"It's actually harmless, except that it's a little troublesome when it rains, as you have to go out in the rain. But there are fewer customers when it rains. But with this rule, customers suddenly think that the other rules in his store are also true."
"And my friend packaged himself and his wife in a way that made them look good. They personally took the menu and took orders from customers. They were both dressed like old-school intellectuals, very stylish. Over time, customers who came to eat here automatically imagined the background story of the couple. Now their restaurant is a veritable internet celebrity restaurant in Suzhou and Hangzhou. There are so many internet celebrities in Suzhou and Hangzhou, right? They all flock to their restaurant to show off their status."
The League Secretary asked, "You earn a lot, right?"
"The store itself doesn't make much money, although as long as it doesn't rain in Suzhou and Hangzhou, there will be a lot of people lining up to eat there. But think about its location. Although it is on a mountain, there is Faxi Temple on the top of the mountain and Lingyin Temple on the next mountain. The rent is incredible. But they used this store as a support, opened a public account and successfully attracted the attention of the petty bourgeoisie in Suzhou and Hangzhou. Then they came up with a product targeting the petty bourgeoisie and did a 'ground promotion' on their public account, making hundreds of thousands of yuan."
"Wow." The league secretary exclaimed, but it seemed that he didn't take the praise seriously at all.
Come to think of it, Masha and his team have Boss Cai’s support behind them, so they wouldn’t care about a few hundred thousand.
Even if it’s an advertisement like Mimi Meng’s that costs 69 yuan, they probably won’t look down on it.
People's standards will become higher. It is impossible for someone who can drive a Rolls-Royce Phantom every day to make a fuss over hundreds of thousands of dollars.
However, Masha still listened very carefully.
After all, the money given by others feels different from the money you earn yourself - at least Masha herself still has the idea of making the maid shop profitable.
The owner of Greedy Fish used his mobile phone to show Masha his official account: "We are doing similar things now, but we focus on food. My food account does not accept advertisements, so I criticize people when they should criticize me. While offending many local colleagues, it is very popular. Then I criticized my own store, praised it a little, and hid it in."
Masha looked at the empty store and said, "It's not very effective."
"It's just that there are not many people today. Normally the customer flow is still OK. The key is what I just said, a store like ours is to attract repeat customers, build loyalty, and make money through peripheral expansion after establishing influence. We don't need to expand physically, we can just develop slowly, and as time goes by, we will naturally carry the aura of an old store."
Masha nodded: "I understand. You are so talkative because this kind of store needs it, right?"
"That's right. The boss is good at chatting, which is very important for a store like this. I suggest that your store can also take a similar approach."
"You mean, let me set up a public account to promote maid culture?" Masha asked puzzledly.
"No, no, haven't you already found a source of maids? Let the girls do the live broadcast."
"Huh?" Masha frowned.
"The daily live broadcast of a real maid shop! Then open it on places like Bilibili to accumulate fans first. The popular maids can then promote their own accounts. This is an era of fan economy. If you have fans, you can make money. Moreover, online and offline should be linked, and there should be an Internet + mindset..."
The league secretary suddenly asked, "Boss, do you often attend any entrepreneurship forums?"
The boss suddenly stopped talking, looking sad: "Don't mention it. I'm 27 years old this year. I've failed in my business five times. The best time I was about to get the A round, but the angel round investment was all gone. Obviously, if I had another 50, I could have gotten the A round..."
The league secretary looked at Masha with an expression that said "you understand, right?"
Masha said thoughtfully, "I think there is some merit in what the greedy fish boss said."
"Huh?" The league secretary was surprised.
Chapter 222: Unintentional Planting of Willows (Part )
Masha continued, "Last time, I showed my face at the comic exhibition live broadcast on Bilibili, and posed as McCree. A lot of people asked for my attention, and my Bilibili account did gain some followers.
“If I start a live broadcast…”
"After all this time, it's you who wants to go live!" the League Secretary complained loudly.
"Of course I'm going to live stream. I don't want a bunch of stinky men fantasizing about my girl!" Masha said firmly, "Besides, the live streaming market is also part of the fan economy, and the main consumer power of the fan economy comes from women!"
"I think the spending power of men in the live streaming market is very strong, so there are so many female anchors..."
“But most of the top anchors are men! This is irrefutable proof of the huge spending power of female fans!”
"You... didn't even look at the data. You just made it up based on your own impression, right?"
The league secretary hit the nail on the head, but Masha ignored her and continued, "And I, with the title of this year's provincial college entrance examination champion and a handsome appearance..."
——It depends on the hat, but that’s not important.
And because Masha was not wearing a hat, the greedy fish owner who was listening nearby showed a suspicious expression.
Masha ignored it, of course she ignored it!
“I still have an interesting soul!”
The league secretary smiled and said, "That's true. I'll admit it for the time being."
"And I'm also pretty good at playing games! Although I can't go to the World Championship to watch the golden ribbon rain, it's no problem for me to get to the King Rank or go to the Fish Pond like Mr. Ma!"
The league secretary nodded: "Yes, I admit that. At least when you play Mario Party, we can't beat you without letting you win."
"The most important thing is that I am also a maid shop owner. Think about it, when others do live broadcasts, they occasionally pick up their cats to pet them, which increases their popularity. When I do live broadcasts, I occasionally pick up my maids to pet them, and my popularity will definitely explode."
League Secretary: "Who just said that he would never let a otaku masturbate to his girl?"
"Well, I just let you guys come over occasionally to bring us drinks or something, just to create some hype."
At this time, the owner of the Greedy Fish, who had been listening to what Masha said, said: "I think your idea may not work. You basically didn't make use of the element of your maid shop. You are still an ordinary male anchor who plays games. It's useless for you to be good at playing games. You also said that when Mr. Ma played high-end games, no one was interested in his live broadcast.
“Speaking of dirty talk, there are already too many anchors who talk dirty, each one is more dirty than the other. I won’t even mention Teacher Ma, but the cave master and the like, which one of them doesn’t talk dirty all the time?
"As for being handsome, are you more handsome than Sao Nan? More handsome than Old Tomato?"
Masha nodded: "You make a lot of sense."
"So, you should broadcast live broadcasts of maids in the store. If there are popular girls, you can create a separate account to promote them. You can also link up online and offline, announce the schedule of popular girls on duty in the store, and attract local fans to interact. This way, you can give full play to the advantages of Internet+..."
Masha asked the League Secretary: "What do you think? How about we have virtual anchors? During the day, they are maids in the store, and at night, they are virtual anchors. In this way, everyone will guess which maid is the person behind which virtual anchor, and even come to the store for a field investigation..."
"That's a good idea. I think your idea of being the host is also a good idea. We can do it together. Anyway, we can give it a try."
"No, I think you should still broadcast the live broadcast of the store..." The pizza shop owner wanted to continue persuading Masha, but Masha saw the Rolls-Royce Phantom returning through the window of their store.
So Masha stood up to pay the bill: "Boss, Alipay. And bring the takeaway items."
Many of the pizzas on the table were not finished, so Masha decided to take them home and heat them up for the little girl - she would probably especially like the durian pizza with lots of cheese.
The boss took the food to pack and continued, "Consider my suggestion. It's really possible. Although I failed many times in starting a business, I have managed to keep this pizza shop going... You have also seen my official account..."
Masha and the league secretary finished packing together, then scanned the code to pay, carried the things out of the store and walked towards their own shop next door.
The boss also followed out and was still nagging, but when he saw the row of beautiful girls waiting for Masha at the next door and the Rolls-Royce Phantom with a driver, he immediately shut up.
Masha turned back to look at him, but the man caught up with him, took Masha's hand and said, "I have a business plan, do you want to listen to it? This plan will definitely make it to the A round, so you can get your investment back smoothly!"
"Well, maybe some other time. I don't really want to invest in a physical store right now."
"My friend is developing a mobile game, it's very promising, if you invest now you'll be considered a co-founder!"
"Ah, some other time."
Masha shook off the boss's hand and walked quickly towards his girls.
——If the spiritual energy revival had not already begun, Masha would really like to make a mobile game or something.
——However, if it weren’t for the revival of spiritual energy, he probably wouldn’t be able to have as many resources and funds as he does now.
——No, these resources and funds belong to Cai Shi. Even if there is no spiritual energy revival, as long as Cai Shi and I are in love, we will still get these! It’s just that the support is not the same as it is now.
But Masha changed his mind and realized that without the revival of spiritual energy, he would not be able to start a harem, so he would probably just marry Chihiro.
——Yes, there is no other possibility.
Thinking of this, Masha looked at Chihiro with tenderness, and then Masha noticed that there was a girl next to Chihiro whom he met for the first time.
--Huh?
That girl looks like a doll.
Although you can tell at first glance that the makeup is heavy, it doesn't make people feel disgusted - it should be because she has a good foundation and can easily handle such heavy makeup.
Masha said to Chihiro, "You really kidnapped someone here?"
"Who is this?" The doll looked at Chihiro in confusion.
"He's my boyfriend, the all-purpose tool man, the manager of this store. Don't think about hitting on him, he's mine." Chihiro announced proudly, her words revealing the heroism of a man riding a horse on the prairie.
At this time, Masha walked into the range of the light of his shop window.
The doll gasped: "Uh, you are, this year's top scorer in the college entrance examination, Masha?"
Masha nodded: "Yes, it's me!"
——My childhood sweetheart is so ambitious, of course I can’t lose.
The doll covered her mouth and said, "I watched your speech and was so moved!"
Masha was stunned: "What?"
Chapter 223 Unexpected Identity (Part )
Qianxun explained: "You didn't know yet? Your speech suddenly became a hot topic today."
"No way, it's been a week and it's trending now?"
Masha frowned.
"Can't you?"
“It took a few years for Wang Jingze’s “really nice” joke to become popular.”
The league secretary reminded Masha.
"It has indeed been circulated everywhere today." The doll spoke up, "I saw it on WeChat Moments and was very moved after listening to it. I also saw your biography and I was very envious."
Masha once again cast a puzzled look at Chihiro.
Qianxun did not disappoint and explained: "It seems that those public accounts that spread your speech video also posted soft articles that exaggerated your high school life."
Masha couldn't help scratching the back of his head: "Is that so? It seems that I have been used as material to create hot topics by the self-media."
"Isn't this good? Many people want to be on the trending search and they have to spend money." Chihiro said with a smile.
