Chapter 125 Getting Better and Better
Resident satisfaction: 76%
City attractiveness: 103
Inside the resort's office, Chen Jun leaned back in his chair, silently looking at the data interface of "City Simulator".
In the past few days, residents' satisfaction has seen a significant increase, and the next level of system rewards is not far away.
Each leap in data corresponds to the accumulation of popularity and reputation in reality. This concrete feedback gives him a clearer sense of confidence.
In the coming period, Xita will be deeply involved in the acquisition and assimilation of Yunhai, which will keep the entire company very busy.
In terms of size, the land area occupied by Yunhai is quite considerable, even exceeding the total area of the activity center and resort.
The significance of this land is not simply about eliminating a competitor.
It is a blank canvas, but also a crucial piece of the puzzle, allowing Chen Jun's previously stockpiled blueprints to finally come in handy.
Ideas that were originally buried in my mind due to land constraints now have enough space to be put into practice.
On the surface, after annexing Yunhai, Xita has no rivals of similar size in Longding Mountain and the surrounding area.
The rest are mostly small projects with limited scale and extensive management.
Just like when the King of Qin unified the six kingdoms, after eliminating several important states, what remained were resources to be integrated, not enemies to be defeated head-on.
It's only a matter of time before they are incorporated or naturally eliminated.
However, for Chen Jun, this is just a milestone in his grand vision.
The world is vast, and he has no reason, nor will he ever, limit his vision to just one corner of Longding Mountain.
In theory, Chen Jun could also have taken the resort or activity center to its highest level and become the absolute king in the niche market.
Later, expansion can also be achieved through brand licensing and management model output.
However, this single, extreme path of replication is ultimately too linear.
Once a certain size is reached, the potential for further growth depends on continuously finding similar markets and copying the existing model.
It is impossible to build an empire with strong endogenous growth and resilience.
In other words, this could not satisfy Chen Jun's ambition.
What he wants is a "composite value ecosystem" that deeply integrates the cultural tourism industry, local culture, creative consumption, and even new community models.
These eight short words represent the dreams of countless businesses.
Simply put, this is not conventional diversification, but an organically connected and mutually empowering value network.
In this ecosystem, Hita is not a resort or a project manager, but an operational platform for enhancing the value of the entire region.
This path is undoubtedly more treacherous, and the challenges will increase exponentially.
Complex resource integration...
Integration of management across different business formats...
Coordination of macroeconomic policies...
And the potential suppression from even larger competitors in the future.
One wrong move and you'll lose everything.
But as the saying goes, the bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish.
In any case, Chen Jun must continue with his original plan, and there is no turning back.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be Chen Jun, and Xita wouldn't be called Xita.
Of course, the most important task at present is to cleanly and efficiently acquire Yunhai and steadily transform it into a component of Xita.
With this lead in hand, subsequent efforts to gather scattered resources in the surrounding area, or to use this as a successful case study to garner higher-level official support, will be more persuasive.
Bringing his thoughts back to reality, Chen Jun let out a soft sigh and closed his laptop.
At that moment, Wang Wang called.
Chen Jun answered the call.
The other party briefly explained the progress in Yunhai.
Overall, things went smoothly. There was no need for any additional private contact; Wang Wang successfully gained the support of most people solely through his verbal skills.
"Thank you for your hard work, Boss Wang."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Jun called Lao Zhou in.
"Uncle Zhou, the first phase on Wang Wang's side has been completed."
"Next, as previously agreed, you will be fully responsible for liaising with him. You need to dig out all the information without missing a single detail and form our intelligence database."
"The acquisition of Yunhai also requires our subordinates to put in extra effort to complete the process as soon as possible, lest things get complicated."
Old Zhou nodded, a hint of emotion on his face: "I really didn't expect that Yunhai, this ship that was running at full power not long ago, would be changing its ownership to Chen so soon."
"There's nothing strange about that. In the business world, things can turn around in an instant. You never know whether a surprise or an accident will come first."
"The interior of Yunhai was already riddled with holes; we were merely going with the flow and helping Wang Wang light the fuse."
"Like a mantis catching a cicada, it probably doesn't realize that a bird is standing behind it until its last breath."
Chen Jun said calmly.
The two chatted for a few minutes, realizing that time was still tight, and didn't continue opening champagne, each going about their own business.
......
In the afternoon, Chen Jun went to the activity center.
I first went to observe the employees' training.
In terms of their current state, most people have already mastered the basic processes and service standards; the next step is to provide more in-depth instruction.
"Boss, we have completed the indoctrination and initial drills of the several teaching modules we have planned. At this stage, relying solely on classroom learning and simulations will significantly slow down the progress."
"In other words, employees need more 'real-world experience' to develop their ability to work with real customers."
"I think we can start preparing for trial operation, set a limited open period, invite specific customers or partners, and refine the team while optimizing the process."
"This model of using war to sustain war is better than working in isolation."
Inside the office, Hu Qian reported to Chen Jun.
She was fully responsible for this aspect, and her judgments were mostly based on first-hand observations, making them highly valuable for reference.
Since she believed the time was right, Chen Jun thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, let's call everyone together for a meeting later."
Currently, in addition to Hu Qian's long-time associate Bi Fanzhi, the management team of the activity center has recently expanded by two more people.
One of them was a newcomer to the industry with little work experience, so Chen Jun asked him to learn and gain experience first.
The other is an industry insider who has worked on similar cultural tourism projects, and is a much-needed professional.
With the addition of the newly recruited mid-level managers, the team is beginning to take shape, and Hu Qian is no longer a pitiful lone commander.
Around 3 PM, everyone gathered in the conference room for a meeting to discuss issues related to the trial operation.
The discussion covered a very specific and complex range of topics.
Ultimately, Chen Jun made the final decision to set the opening date for the first weekend of January next year.
1 month 3 day.
It only takes about ten days at most.
"Should we have a formal ribbon-cutting or opening ceremony then?"
"Yes, and we must do it on a grand scale," Chen Jun stated clearly.
For this project, he doesn't intend to follow the low-key, natural approach of his previous Dragon's Backbone Ambition.
Given the nature of the event center, it is meant to make a high-profile appearance.
Especially in the early stages, it's essential to make as many people as possible aware of and curious about it.
Only when people come in person can word of mouth spread.
One pass ten, ten pass a hundred.
Slowly, the snowball can be formed.
Therefore, Chen Jun also decided to invest a considerable budget in publicity and promotion.
What pleased him even more was the numerical boost the activity center provided to City Simulator.
A larger population means a greater range of emotions.
But what we need to do now is, of course, to ensure that the preliminary work is carried out properly so that the results do not fall short of expectations.
