What the hell is a private enterprise?

Chapter 171 Opening Business

“There are three most important things to do when dealing with tourists!”

“First, speak Mandarin!”

“Second, speak Mandarin!”

"Third, he still speaks Mandarin!"

At the entrance of Dayuan Village, the original simple railings were thrown aside and replaced by military-style chevaux de frise imitating the American ones from World War II, with an open-top jeep parked next to them.

More than one hundred "NPCs" wearing olive green shirts and ties, loose denim shorts and leather shoes stood in a group. Some wore striped helmets, while others wore Beige-style wide-brimmed hats.

Tang Wen was also dressed in the same outfit as the Five-Star Locust, with his shirt tucked into high-waisted pants and sunglasses on as he stood on a jeep giving a speech. At first glance, it really looked like a pre-war mobilization.

After the advertisement is sent out, the tourist area will officially start operations, the original villagers will soon take up their posts, and Tang Wen is doing the final training.

After the construction of the tourist area began, Tang Wen has always attached great importance to language issues:

Mandarin is not that popular now, and the cultural level of coastal villagers is not high, so speaking the local dialect is really a headache.

Tourists may not understand and have difficulty communicating, so they are afraid of being cheated. Therefore, Tang Wen requires everyone to speak Mandarin.

In addition, you must remember your own role, know your military rank, stand at attention and shout "Yeah sir" when you see the "commander", do not say "dielei laomu", and call tourists "handsome boy".

Fortunately, most of the staff in the scenic area have participated in group performances and have some basic common sense, so there is no need to correct them.

And if anyone disobeyed, three-star general Chen Yonggui would use a stick to educate them.

Although there will be no tourists in the first few days, all personnel still have to work in an orderly manner for a few days to adapt, and the flight projects cannot be stopped.

"This scenic spot is finally open."

The village chief felt quite accomplished. The continuous and drastic transformations have changed the appearance of Dayuan Village. Now there are cement roads and scenic trees. In his opinion, it is a unique beauty.

Tang Wen: "Is there a problem with the reception in the city?"

"No, no, there's a reception point next to the train station as you said, and the trucks are all there."

Tang Wen nodded. The tourist area has opened a telephone ticket booking service. Please call and register your information in advance through the newspaper:
The first type: a special remittance package of 388 yuan, which includes one night in a standard double room with meals, and free transfers from Echeng Railway Station/Bus Station to Dawan;
The second type: The base price is 88 yuan, including round-trip car transfers and 7 days of free beach access;
There are three types of vehicles for pick-up and drop-off: one is a CCKW353 ten-wheel truck modified into a passenger bus, one is a Willys Jeep exclusively for VIPs, and the other is a 1940 vintage Lincoln Continental sedan exclusively for higher-level VIPs.

However, Tang Wen still marked out a large parking lot in the village. After all, most of the target tourists should have cars.

You should know that the threshold price of 88 yuan alone can keep a large group of people out. Staying in a hotel for a few days will cost more than 488 yuan. The cheapest short-term flight experience costs 888 yuan, and the lowest price for a warship ticket is yuan. All prices are clearly marked in the newspaper.

If you want to have a great time, you need to prepare a budget of at least 3000 to 5000 yuan for a single person to come to Da Wan.

If you come here just for the plane or the warship, and choose to find a place to stay outside the village, it will cost no less than 1000 yuan.

Even more than 20 years later, this is still a considerable expense.

There are about 200 people in the entire tourist area. If the equipment maintenance costs are converted, the daily expenditure when idle is about 2 yuan. As long as the daily traffic exceeds , the investment can be recovered.

……

The next day, after the staff were initially in place and the operation was up and running, the city and town leaders came down to hold an opening ceremony, and the show was broadcast on provincial TV in the evening.

Tang Wen didn't do anything fancy; he simply demonstrated the featured flight events, the warship's port horn, and the "soldiers'" spirit. He then took the leaders on a few popular rides, including a real-life "Tag Tiger Tiger" action sequence in custom-made costumes, which captivated everyone.

Only one-third of the planned food court was open due to lack of materials and personnel, but the novel foods from all over the country were also eye-catching, and the various aromas made the NPCs drool.

After playing and eating, we rested at the end and then took them to the beach.

One of the highlights, the "Golden Beach", is covered with purchased fine white sand, which is not painful to step on. It is snow-white under the sun and is covered with a large number of parasols, which is comparable to Hawaii in all aspects.

Tang Wen tried his best to recreate the coastal scenic spots he had experienced and corrected many of the shortcomings. Except for the fact that there were fewer hotels and food stalls, it basically returned to what he had in mind.

The style after more than 20 years has made the entire scenic area unique. Even leaders who have lived by the sea for decades and have been to prosperous areas are amazed to know that the beach can be managed in this way.

Gao Yuliang was dressed as a US military general, with his trouser legs rolled up and his bare feet stepping on the fine sand, and a flight cap on his head.

"Xiao Tang, there's always a fishy smell on this beach. How come it's much lighter here?"

Tang Wen pointed to the filter screen that stretched a kilometer from the shore:
"The fishy smell is inherent to the sea, but the stench mainly comes from garbage. I organized villagers to thoroughly clean up the surrounding sea area. We then used nets and airplanes to spread detergent, and it's much better."

All the leaders who followed Gao Yuliang took a deep breath. This move alone was beyond their imagination.

Someone suddenly said:

“I went to the beach in Hong Kong two years ago, and it was just like this!
We need to publicize it more vigorously. Goose City TV and newspapers should report on it as much as possible and spread the word.”

With the beginning, many people immediately expressed their feelings:
"The flight project is great, but the airspace is a bit small. It feels huge on the ground, and we have to turn every now and then in the sky. Can it be expanded twice as much?"

"Da Wan Town is an important node. Tourists who are reluctant to stay in hotels will definitely stay there. The roads and infrastructure need to be updated."

"The road is still too narrow. How about banning outside vehicles from entering and only allowing scenic area vehicles to pass?"

"The signal is too poor. Tourists can't even make calls. Let's ask the telecommunications bureau to add a few more poles."

"There are no police patrols around, and no bank service points. We'll need to increase manpower later."

Everyone was discussing at once, and Gao Yuliang slowly nodded:

"These are all very good suggestions. The Greater Bay Tourist Zone has a total investment of over 100 million yuan and is the new business card of Goose City. Good suggestions must be implemented immediately!"

In a word, this means that the infrastructure and public security around the Greater Bay Area need to be greatly improved.

After experiencing it personally, everyone saw the potential of the tourist area and naturally became more interested in it.

After receiving the leaders, we received a lot of policy preferences, but they did not stay here overnight. Most of them left Da Wan before dark.

Only township leaders such as Lu Jun and Yang Tai stayed.

The ticket booking phone number for the tourist area's newspaper and television advertisements was opened on the morning of Friday, November 11, four days later.

The campaign, which involved television and newspaper advertising, lasted seven days, costing hundreds of thousands of dollars every day.

As the strong promoters of the project, they were all a little nervous and needed to further finalize the details.
