Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Chapter 1115: The Literary Meaning Of The Snack Market!

After exchanging pleasantries, Rui Yuchen introduced, “This is Zhang Yahui, the person-in-charge of the snack market. Let him bring you around and introduce the situation of the snack market.”

He lowered his voice slightly. “Also, he was originally a vendor selling cold noodles. We can dig deeper into this!”

Rui Yuchen obviously did not intend to steal the limelight and handed all of this the credit to Zhang Yahui.

Zhang Lixian’s eyes lit up after hearing Rui Yuchen’s introduction.

Was he originally a food vendor?

There were too many things to dig out!

How did an ordinary food vendor become the person-in-charge of the snack market?

Zhang Yahui was so young. He definitely could not be fighting on his own. Then, could there be a “Boss Pei’s insight” story to tell?

She felt her blood boil at the thought of having so much exciting content to dig out.

“Let’s get started then!”

Zhang Yahui did not expect a reporter from the television station to come and interview him. He was not prepared.

However, how could he drop the ball at such a critical moment?

After all, he was not representing himself but the image of Tengda Corporation.

How could he be qualified to be the ‘person-in-charge’ if he could not stand up at a time like this? How could he face Boss Pei’s trust in him?

What’s more, he was very familiar with the situation in the entire snack market. As for his own experience, there was no need to think about it. He could just mention it.

Zhang Yahui nodded at that thought. “No problem. Let’s chat as we go along.”

Zhang Yahui led Zhang Lixian and the cameraman on the best route.

Zhang Lixian was a professional journalist after all. She asked a few very important questions the moment she opened her mouth even though she had never been to the snack market before.

That was because she noticed that this snack market was completely different from other snack streets the moment she entered!

Jingzhou naturally had snack streets as a provincial capital.

However, Jingzhou’s snack street was not much different from other cities’. There was no obvious advantage.

Zhang Lixian had also made reports on the contents of the local snack street in Jingzhou many times. However, she always had headaches because there were no special points in the content.

However, after arriving at the snack market, she noticed that the renovation style, overall atmosphere, the price of the snacks, the travel route plan, and interactive games were all significantly different from traditional snack streets!

Thus, she used these aspects as an entry point. She introduced and tested the food in front of the stall while asking Zhang Yahui questions.

Zhang Yahui answered her questions one by one.

“The renovation style of the snack market is Cyberpunk style. The direct source of this style is a popular movie by Fei Huang Workspace, Tomorrow is Beautiful.”

“We have two main considerations when designing. First, we can connect with the movie so that everyone can taste the delicacies and feel the movie scene at the same time. Second, we can make a difference in style. At the same time, the Cyberpunk style is a lot more in line with the spiritual core of the snack market.”

“What’s more, the design of the snack market this time is completely dependent on a passionate friend from Tengda Games. He used the game design concept to arrange many interactive content for the snack market, including half-price stalls that were regularly updated, the stamps and cards, and other designs. They greatly improved the interactive nature of the entire snack market.”

“Here, I want to specially thank him!”

“As for why these snacks are so cheap... Actually, this was Boss Pei’s special request. He only pushed the price to this extent after a lot of subsidies.”

“Opening bonuses? No, no, no. That will be the price in the future.”

“On one hand, this pricing is to allow everyone to enjoy the delicacies without any burden. They would not miss out on the delicacies because they feel that they are expensive. On the other hand, profits are not the first goal of the food market.”

“The mission of the food market is to respond to the call of the old industrial zone to showcase the snack culture across the country. It is not purely commercial...”

Zhang Yahui spoke confidently and fluently in front of the camera.

Zhang Lixian could not help but nod.

That was great!

Obviously, as the person-in-charge of the snack market, Zhang Yahui had a deep understanding of the snack market. His positioning was very accurate and his explanation was very easy to understand.

Next, he had to ask more important questions to sublimate the theme.

“I heard that you used to be a food vendor. How did you become the person-in-charge of the snack market?”

Zhang Yahui heaved a sigh of relief and spoke about his experience.

He had dropped out of high school to set up a stall with his parents because of his poor family background.

The good thing was that he was smart and liked to research on his own. The roasted cold noodles he made were quite famous in the area.

Later, the Cold-Faced Lady organized a Street Food Contest. Zhang Yahui’s roasted cold noodles obtained unanimous praise from the judges and was hired as a Gourmet Adviser.

After that, Boss Pei made an exception to promote him to be the person-in-charge of the snack market. That was how the current scene happened.

At that point, Zhang Yahui sighed. “Speaking of which, I’m really very grateful to Boss Pei!”

“As an ordinary food vendor, I’m very honored to be promoted to be the person-in-charge of the snack market and be in charge of such a huge project.”

“However, this is only one aspect.”

“More importantly, the snack market makes vendors like us feel the warmth of home and a special care for humanities!”

“A small stall is a means of making a living for the vendors. On the other hand, the economy of the stall and the small shop can also increase employment. It’s the smell of smoke and fire, the taste of ordinary people’s lives.”

“However, to be honest, there are too many difficulties to set up a stall!”

“As a vendor, setting up stalls means waking up early, working late at night, and not being able to be home all the time. We have to start preparing before dawn and only return late at night.”

“Many vendors take up space, the quality of the snacks are mixed, they are not honest in their transactions, and they throw rubbish everywhere. Many people are also biased against snack stalls.”

“Just like the street interview from before: Most people support snack stalls and night markets, but the prerequisite is that these stalls cannot be under their own building.”

“Therefore, even though the income I earned from setting up my stall previously was not bad, I had always had a very contradictory mentality. That was, what I was doing was not accepted.”

“Is what I’m doing meaningful? Can I have other pursuits other than earning money? Will I continue to set up stalls like this for the next ten or twenty years?”

“I often felt confused and lost.”

“The snack market not only provides a more secure life for all our vendors, but also shows us a more orderly, healthy, and civilized way of setting up stalls!”

“Here, we don’t have to worry about the risks of life. We don’t have to worry about screening the raw materials ourselves, nor do we have to worry about being misunderstood. We just have to seriously make good snacks to satisfy customers’ taste.”

“We can receive respect for living, we can feel that the future is optimistic and filled with hope, we can also see that the snack stalls will not perish, but will integrate into modern urban life in a more advanced and civilized manner, becoming a part of urban food culture.”

“I think this is what Boss Pei wants to convey through the snack market!”

Zhang Yahui had been thinking about Boss Pei’s deeper intentions ever since he came to the snack market.

During the preparation process, these thoughts slowly surfaced in the exchange with the other vendors.

Obviously, Boss Pei did not launch the snack market to earn money.

This might be to create a huge food and beverage empire just as Rui Yuchen had analyzed. It would allow the snack market, cold-faced lady, and the documentary ‘Stalls’ to create a snack and beverage brand.

However, Zhang Yahui firmly believed that there must be another humanitarian factor in it apart from the commercial goal.

This humanistic factor was to preserve and display the outstanding snack culture. It was to properly regulate and guide the local snacks so that they could successfully survive, develop, and grow. Finally, they would integrate into people’s lives, so that this smoke and fire could continue to burn in the big city that was becoming colder and colder.

In the face of the interview, Zhang Yahui expressed his feelings one by one. He spoke about the hardships and emotions he had experienced as a vendor for so many years.

Zhang Lixian’s eyes lit up.

Look, look! That’s great!

There was a very down-to-earth, resonant life experience, and a deep economic and humanistic analysis after being elevated!

He could not help but feel emotional. Every industry has its own merits.

An ordinary vendor could actually speak so well. It was really impressive.

Of course, he could not rule out the possibility that his horizons had improved after entering Tengda.

All in all, this interview with the snack market was perfect!

First, he used a unique layout and decoration style to attract people’s attention and attract high attention. Then, he tasted affordable delicacies and introduced the cause and effect of the birth of the snack market. Finally, he raised his thoughts and talked about the street stalls economy, city planning, food and beverage culture, and other more macroscopic aspects.

On the way back, Zhang Yahui passed by a roasted cold noodles stall and specially made a serving for himself, making Zhang Lixian praise him non-stop.

After walking around, he returned to the entrance.

Zhang Yahui took a stack of notebooks from the provision store and gave them to Zhang Lixian, the photographer, and the other colleagues from the television station as gifts.

“Thank you so much!”

“I feel bad taking things every time I come for an interview...”

“All in all, thank you for accepting our interview!”

Zhang Lixian left reluctantly after confirming that all the material had been recorded.

There were still many delicious snacks tempting her, but she could eat them the next time she came.

She was in Jingzhou anyway and could come over anytime.

She had to edit the news as soon as possible!

Zhang Lixian had a feeling that this piece of news would definitely cause a huge reaction like the interview with Fish-Catching Take-Out and Boss Li!

Zhang Yahui heaved a sigh of relief after sending Zhang Lixian and the cameraman off.

“Phew, at least I didn’t embarrass Boss Pei!”
