Food Stall: Customers Chase Me across the Country-Chapter 239 - 240: Sudden Mishap—Changlong MiHoYo Swimsuit-Themed Comic Exhibition?

Chapter 239: Chapter 240: Sudden Mishap—Changlong MiHoYo Swimsuit-Themed Comic Exhibition?

Li Bo was excitedly looking at the data reports and appointment status from the past few days, the numbers clearly proving that signing Teacher Wang was the right decision.

If we can keep this up, growing big and strong to become a leader is not impossible!

By then, stepping on CJ, punching CD, and CP will be a piece of cake.

This is a solid 40% increase in daily averages!

And this increase is limited by the venue, far from the limit of Teacher Wang’s influence.

As the saying goes, a person shouldn’t be too proud, or tragedy strikes easily, and that’s exactly what happened to Li Bo.

Just as he was delightfully indulging in his fantasies, Cheng Piao dashed into the office cursing.

Li Bo said displeased: "What’s got you so flustered? Watch your language."

Cheng Piao shouted angrily: "Those bastards have gone too far, they backed out of a deal we had agreed on, saying they can’t rent to us because they have to prepare for a higher authority inspection in two days."

Li Bo’s heart skipped a beat: "Explain clearly!"

Cheng Piao still fuming: "It’s because of that site manager Leo, who said there’s a major inspection during the 51st holiday, scheduled for the next couple of days, so they can’t fulfill our lease and told us to find another place."

"Bastards! I goddamn &$@%@#...!

Li Bo spewed a string of words only suitable to be censored, truly because the venue’s actions were utterly despicable.

This is like needing a bathroom repair at the last minute when you’re at the door with urgency.

I’ve announced the event and sold tickets, now you say the venue’s not available, how could they play people like this?

"Sue them! Sue them for me! I goddamn &$*#!"

"Even if we sue them, that’s for the future, what do we do now, President Li? You have to think of a solution."

Cheng Piao quickly reminded the furious Li Bo that getting angry wouldn’t solve anything.

"What to do? How the hell should I know what to do?"

With a curse, Li Bo forced himself to calm down, realizing that getting angry was useless, as Cheng Piao said, a solution must be found.

"Contact all suitable venues nearby, and also try to communicate with the current site again."

Cheng Piao didn’t move but whispered: "President Li, I have an idea."

"If you have an idea, speak up! Why hide it at a critical moment like this?!"

Cheng Piao immediately said: "Changlong Water Park just opened recently. They have a lot of space, but due to the sudden opening, the crowd is not as expected. Do you think it’s possible for us to talk to them about a partnership?"

"Hmm?"

Li Bo frowned and pondered after hearing Cheng Piao’s words.

The venue there indeed has space, and with the current temperature, holding an event at a water park is feasible, but addressing customer dissatisfaction is also essential.

"Here’s what we’ll do: send someone to negotiate with the current venue again, and you go talk to Changlong in person while I have a chat with Miyou to see if we can hold a Miyou swimsuit exhibition in the last two days. Go now!"

Li Bo wasn’t sure if he could negotiate a deal, but it seemed the other party was interested in Teacher Wang’s culinary skills. With Henglong’s nice environment, blending food, scenery, and attractive guests, he felt there was room to negotiate with Miyou.

If a deal could be struck, it would allow him some maneuvering room. Any notice on the official site would not have to suggest poor management but could rather highlight an upgrade for a better customer experience.

Then post an announcement on the official site, have the customer service department notify people with tickets to change their location, prepare a bus here to take any stragglers directly to Changlong, and he was confident this crisis could be overcome!

...

Back at Wang Fan’s place, Hao Xin doubted her hearing.

I’ve introduced myself and mentioned I want to interview you. What a great chance to boost your visibility, and you’re telling me to stand aside?

"Mr. Wang, we’re from Urban Morning News!"

Wang Fan acknowledged: "I know, please queue up to the side and don’t disturb my customers buying things."

Hao Xin, with heightened emphasis, said: "Mr. Wang, our market share is very high; this is a great promotional opportunity."

Her words had the opposite effect on Wang Fan.

He had already inexplicably become a sought-after target; she wanted to increase his exposure for more people to line up and bother him?

"You should go promote someone who needs it. I really don’t need this."

Wang Fan’s words were incredibly sincere, even the punctuation marked with earnestness.

Hao Xin felt she was about to lose her mind; this was not how the game was normally played!

"I mainly wanted to report on your heroic actions during the incident on the 429. Our station has prepared a 20,000 yuan bonus for you."

Wang Fan shook his head: "Please leave, I just did what I could, nothing heroic, and I don’t need the bonus. If it’s possible, you could donate it to left-behind children or those who need it. Please step aside; the roast chicken will get cold, and it won’t taste good."

"Phew..."

The cameraman gasped, probably the first time the always successful Host Hao had hit a wall, huh?

This Boss Wang Fan really has character, hehe.

Wang Fan genuinely felt it unnecessary.

He had hands and feet, a strong ability to make money, and didn’t need this money.

Hao Xin said, frustrated: "We came all this way; can we at least buy a roast chicken?"

Wang Fan shook his head: "Please queue at the back if you want to buy things, but given the current amount, it may not be possible today. I’m sorry, you might have to come earlier tomorrow."

"You..."

Hao Xin wanted to say something more, but the cameraman was already pulling her aside.

"Let’s go, let’s not disturb Boss Wang’s business. We’ll wait over there for a bit."

Wu Qian, who was queuing, had grown a bit impatient. If Hao Xin wasn’t a woman, he might have already cursed.

Does being from the radio station make you special? The radio can’t stop me from eating Brother Wang’s food!

Seeing Wu Qian, Wang Fan was taken aback, then remembered Lin Mu’s words and apologized: "Sorry about the other night; the car really ran out of candy."

Wu Qian quickly waved his hand: "It’s my fault, I can’t handle spicy food, how could I blame you? If it weren’t for drinking a little soup, my cold wouldn’t have gotten better in two days."

Wang Fan smiled: "That’s good. Are you having a whole chicken or half?"

Wu Qian licked his lips: "Two chickens would be best, but if not, one will do. I’ve been craving your cooking for a long time and caught you at last."
