Yukinoshita's Correction Method
Under the watchful eye of Yukino Yukinoshita, Dong Yunshan sat upright and had been discussing the decoration style and service tenets of the store with the maid.
Saki Kawasaki tasted the drinks in the shop and felt that the money in the maid cafe is really good.
The second stop, Ginza, is the home of Yumiko Miura. I shuttled freely between flagship stores and boutiques. I had a great time shopping, but basically didn't buy anything.
Ginza is obviously more in line with the style of Cloud Snow Tea than Senso-ji. There are various brand stores with unique designs everywhere.
At the third stop, Harajuku, it was a different style of painting. Young people with unique outfits, gorgeous Lolita, rebellious punks, flamboyant hot girls could be seen everywhere. Shizuka Hiratsuka was stunned.
The most impactful thing is Shibuya at night. On the second floor of Starbucks, overlooking the world's busiest intersection, the moment the green light turns on, the dense crowd begins to move. Amid the constant flow, many people stand still and pose in various poses to take photos.
Finally, we ate at Shibuya restaurant and returned to the hotel after a fulfilling day.
After the excitement faded, the feeling of fatigue became more intense.
"So tired~" Komachi Hikigaya put a lot of things aside and threw himself directly on the bed, "Shopping can be so tiring."
"The main reason is that I went to too many places today..." Saki Kawasaki untied his hair and asked, "Is anyone taking a shower?"
"Hmm~~~" Komachi Hikigaya responded in a weak voice, "You guys wash up first, I want to lie down for a while."
Saki Kawasaki tilted his head and looked at Yukino Yukinoshita.
"You wash up first, I'll go to Yunshan's room to wash up." Yukino Yukinoshita cleaned up briefly, "Let's talk to him about the location selection by the way."
"Oh~" Saki Kawasaki nodded understandingly and walked into the bathroom.
When she came out again, Yukino Yukinoshita was no longer in the room. "It seems that Yunshan will come to pick up clothes again tomorrow morning."
"No way." Komachi Hikigaya, who was packing his things, chuckled, "Yukino took the clothes with him when he left."
"... I'm not pretending at all." Saki Kawasaki wiped his hair with a towel, "Will they really talk about location selection?"
"It should be possible..." Komachi Hikigaya blinked, "It's not allowed there... it's not allowed here... or something like that?"
Saki Kawasaki: "Are you talking about location selection?"
Komachi Hikigaya: "What if?"
"It's not allowed here." Yukino Yukinoshita tapped the tourist map, "It's not allowed here either."
"Well..." Dong Yunshan nodded, "The entrance to Center Street is densely populated, and the brand exposure is unparalleled. It is definitely the best place to open a store. However, the rent is too expensive. Although it is suitable for the development direction of Cloud Snow Tea, it is not suitable for the current development goals."
Chapter 553 Locking the upper limit
"Are you sure you want to open a branch here?" Haruno Yukinoshita put down the tourist map and looked up at Dong Yunshan opposite, "This seems to be inconsistent with the plan you mentioned before."
"The plan can't keep up with the changes." Dong Yunshan sipped hot tea, "It's like I just finished my trip and wanted to have a good rest, but someone suddenly came to my door... I can't continue to lie down."
"Oh~" Haruno Yukinoshita smiled, his eyes dancing between the two of them, "Did I disturb you?"
Yukino Yukinoshita said in a cold tone, "So let's skip the polite words and just talk about the key points."
She and Dong Yunshan had just arrived home when Haruno Yukinoshita came to the door.
You don't need to guess. Just like when camping before, Haruno Yukinoshita knew she went to Tokyo through the location of her mobile phone.
He said he came here to chat about the branch, but in reality he probably came to investigate what the two of them had done.
Haruno Yukinoshita blinked. "Are you really bothering me? So angry..."
"Let's go." Yukino Yukinoshita stood up, "Let's continue sleeping."
"Sister, please watch TV for a while." Dong Yunshan stood up and said, "If you are hungry, make yourself something to eat."
"Your previous plan was to determine the follow-up direction based on the market response. If the market response is average, you will go to a place farther away. If the market response is intense, you will open stores intensively in Chiba." Haruno Yukinoshita's eyes were sharp, "Kyoto is indeed a place farther away, but Tokyo is not."
"That's the problem." Dong Yunshan held Yukino Yukinoshita's hand and sat down with her again. "In my opinion, the market's feedback is somewhere in between, so the expansion strategy must be flexible."
Dong Yunshan is talking about more than just market feedback.
Yukino Yukinoshita's eyes drooped slightly.
There is also the reaction of the Yukinoshita Family.
If Yukinoshita Family has no obvious action, then rely on existing resources to expand further.
If Yukinoshita Family really wants to get Cloud Snow Tea, then let Yukinoshita Family increase investment and spread Cloud Snow Tea all over Chiba.
The former only opens one or two stores and can rely on existing profits without Yukinoshita Family increasing investment.
The latter requires explosive store opening and requires Yukinoshita Family to invest more in order to get more.
Yukinoshita Family reacts normally, but Cloud Snow Tea can jump out of Chiba before being controlled by the Yukinoshita Family.
Yukinoshita Family reacted violently, and Cloud Snow Tea could quickly consume Yukinoshita Family's liquidity.
But now Yukinoshita Family's reaction is somewhere in between.
Haruno Yukinoshita came forward as a partner and asked about the opening of a branch.
It can be said to be her personal behavior, or it can be said to be the expression of the Yukinoshita Family's will.
If you try to exit Chiba, you may be blocked by the Yukinoshita Family.
If we expand in Chiba, we may not get the full support of the Yukinoshita Family.
At this time, Tokyo becomes a very good choice.
It is said that it jumped out of Chiba... but actually it didn't jump too far.
As a neighbor of Tokyo, Chiba is an important part of the Tokyo metropolitan area, playing the role of a satellite city and residential area, providing housing for people who work in Tokyo.
Cloud Snow Tea, which can become popular on Chiba, will naturally become popular on Tokyo.
To a certain extent, it can be considered a fairly safe local expansion.
But to say that Chiba did not jump out... Tokyo is indeed another city.
The customer base is wider, the market capacity is larger, competition is more exciting, and rental costs are higher.
If you successfully open a branch, it will be an excellent proof of the brand's strength, help quickly build brand trust, significantly increase brand awareness, and lay a good foundation for future expansion in more cities.
"Not to mention the high start-up and operating costs, the expansion of the management radius and the difference in consumption habits have added a lot of uncertainty." Haruno Yukinoshita pointed out, "If Tokyo's store fails, it will cause many adverse effects..."
"Risk? Uncertainty?" Dong Yunshan raised an eyebrow, "No matter how big it is, can it be bigger than the first store?"
"Never had it, and having it and losing it are two different feelings." Haruno Yukinoshita narrowed his eyes slightly, "Now I ask you to give Cloud Snow Tea to me, are you willing?"
"This is a secret exchange concept." Yukino Yukinoshita's eyes were sharp, "Failure and being robbed are two different things."
"Sometimes, two different things have many similarities and may face similar situations." Haruno Yukinoshita held up the tea cup and breathed in the fragrance of hot tea, "So... what's your answer?"
"Okay." Dong Yunshan did not avoid Haruno Yukinoshita's gaze, "If you want, I can give you Chiba's Cloud Snow Tea right now, but you can't touch my other plans."
Yukino Yukinoshita put his hand on Dong Yunshan's leg and squeezed it gently.
As Haruno Yukinoshita said, sometimes two different things have many similarities.
"Oh?" Haruno Yukinoshita glanced at his sister, "You should know the value of Cloud Snow Tea, right?"
Dong Yunshan chuckled, "Do you know that?"
"I thought I knew..." Haruno Yukinoshita raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "But you don't seem to think so."
"Cloud Snow Tea's current success mainly relies on the purpose of [Chiba hundreds of flavors, melted in a cup], which is local materials and local taste." Dong Yunshan pointed out the key, "In Chiba Expansion, Cloud Snow Tea is just Chiba material, Chiba taste. Only by leaving Chiba, Cloud Snow Tea can we achieve one place, one taste in the true sense."
Haruno Yukinoshita still maintained a smile on his lips, but the coldness in his eyes became more and more serious. "You mean...Chiba will limit the development of Cloud Snow Tea and lock the upper limit of Cloud Snow Tea?"
"Chiba will not restrict Cloud Snow Tea." Dong Yunshan corrected, "The idea of letting Cloud Snow Tea stay in Chiba will form a restriction on Cloud Snow Tea."
"It seems that the success of the first store has greatly increased your confidence." Haruno Yukinoshita can no longer maintain the smile on his lips, "So that you have forgotten Chiba's support for Cloud Snow Tea."
"It is precisely because of the support from Chiba that Cloud Snow Tea should strive to develop to the extent that it can give back to Chiba." Dong Yunshan Without giving in, "Cloud Snow Tea's present cannot be without the support of Chiba, and the future of Cloud Snow Tea cannot rely solely on the support of Chiba."
"... What do you think?" Haruno Yukinoshita turned his eyes slightly and looked at his sister, "Do you think so too?"
"If you just want to rely on Chiba, there is no need for Cloud Snow Tea to develop and expand." Yukino Yukinoshita raised his eyes and met his sister's gaze. His ice blue eyes were as firm as ever, "Since you want to go further, you can't set limits for yourself."
"Cloud Snow Tea..." Haruno Yukinoshita closed his eyes and opened them again after a while, "It's developing so fast."
Chapter 554 Low-Level Provocation
"This is indispensable for your hard work and dedication." Dong Yunshan reminded, "Since you have decided to open a store in Tokyo, you must solve the problem of the taste of Tokyo materials and Tokyo. These require more efforts on your part. As for personnel, I don't need to say anything more."
"You didn't say much about the materials and taste." Haruno Yukinoshita rolled his eyes at him angrily, "The ugly words come first. If you open a store in Tokyo, I won't be able to support you like I do in Chiba."
Haruno Yukinoshita only talked about support issues, but it was more than just support issues.
Not supporting does not mean doing nothing.
It's also possible to do the opposite of support.
It is normal for the cooked crabs to run away and click on them.
Dong Yunshan sighed, "Then you can only rely on yourself."
"What did you say?"
"Cloud Snow Tea's drinks were designed by me, the taste was improved by Saki Kawasaki, and the marketing plan was planned by me..." Dong Yunshan's voice contained undisguised encouragement, "This time I went to Tokyo to open a store. It is a copy of the existing successful model, but it is also a new attempt - why don't you try it yourself?"
Haruno Yukinoshita asked calmly, "Why should I try?"
Dong Yunshan has done a great job, she only needs to arrange for people to complete the work, why do she have to take the risk and do it all herself?
"Why don't you try?" Dong Yunshan blinked, "This is your chance to prove your ability. If you succeed, you don't have to worry about Cloud Snow Tea's future development and can kick me out without any burden."
"I can't bear it~" Haruno Yukinoshita smiled softly and leaned forward slightly, "My good sister can't bear it either."
Yukino Yukinoshita said with a straight face, "Let's get down to business."
"Now Cloud Snow Tea is developing very well and is on the rise." Haruno Yukinoshita made a pressing motion. "If it fails and the upward momentum is interrupted, the impact will be huge."
"It doesn't matter." Dong Yunshan said with a calm expression, "I will take action."
Haruno Yukinoshita points out the key point. "But it's not necessary."
"The agreement we signed was drawn up by you." Dong Yunshan said about the previous incident, "Before that, Yukino also completed an agreement."
Haruno Yukinoshita: "So?"
"There are many differences between the two agreements, one of which is... the non-compete agreement." Dong Yunshan tilted his head, "What's that?"
Yukino Yukinoshita said, "Party B and its immediate family members and holding companies within three generations shall not directly or indirectly invest in similar businesses."
"That's it." Dong Yunshan snapped his fingers, "Your agreement has this, but Yukino's agreement doesn't - I like Yukino's agreement better, and it's not too late for us to adjust it now."
By canceling the non-compete agreement, representatives Haruno Yukinoshita and Yukinoshita Family are free to try to copy the successful model of Cloud Snow Tea and no longer have to be constrained by Dong Yunshan.
If successful, you can bypass the existing protocol and obtain Cloud Snow Tea that belongs exclusively to the Yukinoshita Family.
If you fail, come back and study how to get Cloud Snow Tea belonging to Dong Yunshan.
Before that, Haruno Yukinoshita can be used to practice with Tokyo Branch.
Once you have successful experience, you can open your own store.
If you encounter failure, Dong Yunshan will take care of it.
The risk is reduced to a minimum, and the returns are horribly high.
This is Dong Yunshan's...
"Provocation~" Haruno Yukinoshita traced his white fingertips on the rim of the cup. "You want to use a store to let me prove my ability?"
"Don't you think so too?" Dong Yunshan raised an eyebrow, "I have the same idea as you, why are you still angry?"
Dong Yunshan proved his ability with Cloud Snow Tea, so now Yukinoshita Family doesn't interfere too much in their relationship.
After all, the potential of Cloud Snow Tea is too great.
It's not enough that Dong Yunshan and Yukino Yukinoshita are just lovers. Yukinoshita Family hopes that Dong Yunshan will marry Yukinoshita Family with Cloud Snow Tea.
Snow Mother's previous guidance and Haruno Yukinoshita's current actions are both manifestations of this idea.
If Dong Yunshan wants the two of them to get along without interference, he needs to prove that only when he is the controller of Cloud Snow Tea can Cloud Snow Tea's potential be unleashed.
How to prove it?
Tokyo Branch gives full authority to the Yukinoshita Family for operation.
See whether Dong Yunshan needs Yukinoshita Family, or Yukinoshita Family needs Dong Yunshan.
Want Cloud Snow Tea?
First prove your own indispensability.
"I'm not angry." Feeling the shape of the mouth of the cup with his soft fingertips, Haruno Yukinoshita stared at Dong Yunshan, "I'm just curious, where does your confidence come from?"
