Chapter 371: How to Improve the Utilization Rate of the Castle

Chapter 371: How to Improve the Utilization Rate of the Castle
In Li Xiao's view, the primary problem to be solved is to divert tourists according to their needs and desires.

"I'd like to ask first, what is the castle's most comfortable capacity?"

The emphasis on "most comfortable" rather than "largest" is naturally aimed at ensuring the best possible experience for visitors.

"This castle is built on an island, and the entire island belongs to the castle. If it's just for sightseeing, it can easily accommodate 100,000 tourists."

This is one of the reasons why Göring chose this castle.

He had considered the possibility of 100,000 visitors, but he hadn't thought deeply about how to accommodate 100,000 people to ensure they had a good time.

"The castle owner only allows us to use it for three days a month. He is afraid that excessive use will damage the original buildings of the castle, so we cannot make any further adjustments to the time."

After informing Li Xiao of the existing limitations, Golin looked at him expectantly, hoping he could come up with a good idea.

Li Xiao did not disappoint him. Although he belonged to the Blue Star Army and did not have much leisure time, he had seen the world.

"Three days... if we count three nights, is it feasible to wrap things up on the fourth day?"

If the decorations are done during the day and a dance party is held at night, by the fourth day the tourists have already left, and only the final finishing work needs to be done, it should not be considered occupying the castle.
"It sounds reasonable and feasible."

Landon understood what Li Xiao meant.

If you calculate it that way, it doesn't really count as a breach of contract.

"Regarding this, I need to communicate with the castle owners. They are willing to lend the castle, so I cannot make decisions on my own."

While it may seem reasonable, interpersonal relationships cannot be simply defined by the word "reasonable."

No one objected to Göring's cautious approach.

"When you communicate with them, you can explain that diverting visitors is actually more conducive to maintaining the castle's architecture and preventing damage caused by too many tourists."

Elius helped Göring come up with a reason to better persuade the castle owner.

After listening, Goring nodded knowingly and immediately contacted the owner of the castle to seek his opinion.

Fortunately, the castle owner was very satisfied with Göring's attitude of seeking his opinion on everything, and readily agreed to his request without making things difficult for him.

"Great, so what should we do next?"

With more time available, Goring happily announced the good news to them, then looked at Li Xiao again.

"Well, this way we have three full days and three nights, and we only need to finish up on the fourth day."

Li Xiao found paper and pen; as a human from Earth, he was still more accustomed to speaking and writing at the same time.

"First, we can divide the tourists according to their needs..."

Generally, families with children mainly want to visit the castle, participate in some parent-child activities, take photos of the children and their families, and hold a garden party.

"Children go to bed early, so scheduling it during the day is just right."

Therefore, during the three daytimes, visitors who wish to tour the castle, take photos, or engage in family activities can come to the island to participate in the park activities.

"The Explorer is equipped with a large yacht, so even if nearly 40,000 people want to go to the island every day, they can make reservations in advance in different time slots to avoid overcrowding."

The advantage of having a large yacht is that you can start visiting the island castle the day before the Explorer passes by, then in three groups the day after you arrive and the day after you leave the vicinity of the castle.

In this way, the yacht's journey will not be too long, and it will not take too much time on the road.

Then, the daytime hours are further divided into more specific segments. For example, from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, there are eight hours in total, with each two-hour segment reserved for booking, giving the yacht ample time for round-trip transportation.

"This is indeed a good idea, and since the number of reservations is fixed, the number of people going to the island can be well controlled. The setting of 120,000 tourists over three days can basically guarantee that everyone can go to the island."

Furthermore, it can be set that the first reservation opens at a certain time period, and a second reservation can only be made if the number of people is insufficient on the day and there are more places available for the island after the first reservation ends.

"The daytime problem is indeed solved, but what about the night? We can't have the same dance party for three nights in a row, can we?"

Goring initially planned to hold one ball, but after Li Xiao said that, it meant that three balls had to be prepared. Does that mean that the workload has tripled?
Another important consideration is cost.

"The venue setup can be largely the same; the differences lie in the details. The most important thing is the theme of the ball."

What Elius said was exactly what Göring wanted to ask.

Li Xiao also offered his own thoughts on this matter.

"Actually, it doesn't necessarily have to be a dance party."

The ball was just a suggestion from Liang He, but Golin and the others confined themselves to the circle of the ball, going around in circles.

In fact, they should step outside this circle and plan from other perspectives.

"Actually, the castle is just a venue that provides some atmosphere, but the most important thing is the people."

Whether it's the tourists or the staff who provide services to them, they are the core of the plan.

"For example, we can host large-scale immersive stage plays, cat and mouse games, haunted house escapes, role-playing murder mystery games, etc. The theme is different every night, and tourists can freely choose the projects they want to participate in."

Visitors can freely choose one of the three themes without additional payment, while the other two themes are paid attractions and participation is voluntary.

Since the theme is different every night, some tourists may want to participate in all three, which would cause overcrowding, so it is necessary to set a threshold.

"It sounds pretty good. I have no problem with the beginning, but isn't murder mystery game scripts a bit difficult to operate?"

Liang Jia was probably the person who could understand what he was saying most easily, besides Li Xiao.

The stage play is mainly for the staff; tourists can simply watch it, that's fine.

The haunted house escape is alright; it's just a matter of letting people in in waves, scaring them, and then sending them out.

Cats and mice are basically playing hide-and-seek. As long as the hiding area is defined, there's generally no need to worry about any problems.

"But for role-playing murder mystery games, are we supposed to prepare multiple rooms so they can all gather together to play them?"

That's no different from other places, right?

Why be so foolish as to spend money on a sea voyage?

"I think it's possible to use the atmosphere of the castle itself to set up a scary haunted house or play hide-and-seek, which would be fine and easy to control in terms of time. But I have reservations about script-based murder mystery games."

Moreover, if this happens, the dance party is completely over, so what's the point of their live stream tonight?
Li Xiao simply smiled and shook his head at their opinions.

"I haven't finished speaking yet, what's the rush?"

He certainly considered the actual situation.

"The murder mystery game I'm talking about is not quite the same as what you think."
