Chapter 493 Market Competition
After all, he runs a hotel, so his brain works well.
Influenced by Xueru Hotel, Wu Fengxian not only copied the Xueru Hotel and launched an hourly room project, but also added a new service of helping to look after luggage.
After all, many people come here to find a job or do business, and it is obviously inconvenient to drag a bunch of luggage.
In the past, people would stay in a hotel for a night or even a day, so this kind of problem naturally did not exist.
Now that we have introduced hourly rooms, combined with the service of helping to watch the luggage, it would be perfect.
"What? Fifty cents an hour?"
"Is there such a good thing?"
With the shouting from the loud speaker, the entrance of City Express Hotel quickly attracted many passers-by.
This place is not far from the train station, and most of the people here are people who have just got off the train and are anxious to find a place to stay. When they hear that it only costs 50 cents to stay for an hour, they are naturally willing to come here.
As expected, Wu Fengxian found that almost all the rooms in his hotel were occupied that night alone.
After asking the accountant to do the math, it was found that not only was there no loss, but there was actually a lot of profit than before.
"This is a really clever idea. It ensures maximum utilization of the room. It's genius!"
Wu Fengxian looked at the latest bill and couldn't close her mouth with joy.
At the same time, she looked at the Xueru Hotel opposite and became a little more solemn.
The person who could come up with this idea was obviously not an ordinary person. The opponent's methods were not something that Wu Fengxian could afford. It seemed that she had to be more careful in the future and not use those despicable methods again. Otherwise, it might not only be ineffective, but also bring disaster upon herself!
Chen Xueru had no choice but to accept the fact that City Hotel completely copied her project.
After all, if she can do this kind of project, so can others.
Fortunately, the positioning of the city hotel itself is relatively low, and the guests it attracts are all low-end people, which actually has little impact on her Xueru Hotel.
Even in the following few days, Chen Xueru observed that not only was there no negative impact, but in a sense, the hotel opposite also promoted its own hourly room business.
Because she found that many people would book two or three hours at her place to discuss business, and after things were done, they would go to the hotel across the street and book a few more hours to sleep.
In this way, not only can things be done decently, but the cost of living can also be reduced.
That's really cost-effective!
Of course, the hourly rooms launched by the two hotels were so effective that they were copied by other hotels in the city in less than a month.
If you are the only one doing this, then it still seems to be a good deal, but if everyone does this, then there is no competitiveness. High-end hotels like Xueru Hotel are fine, and the cost performance is there. But the customer flow of the city hotel opposite has obviously maintained a stable level again.
However, the guesthouses that were once popular with many people and those small hotels with poor conditions suffered a huge impact and their business became even worse.
This can be seen from Xu Huizhen's expression.
"Xue Ru, who did I offend? You two families fought each other and you both made a lot of money. However, I suffered a huge loss. It will be more and more difficult to make money in the future!"
After figuring out what had happened, Xu Huizhen immediately ran to Chen Xueru and told her about her grievances.
