Chapter 208 - Chapter 208: Hotel's Influence and Boosting Ability

"Hey, hey, hey!!!"

Chen Jianhai, in a daze,

saw Ning Youyou reaching out her hand towards "true love in the world," and it scared him awake.

Both his legs kicked and pushed on the ground furiously,

scraping the ground for several meters before he sat up in a panic and exclaimed:

"What are you doing?"

Ning Youyou, her face flushed, righteously said, "They told me to press your philtrum!"

"Is this the philtrum?!!" Chen Jianhai jabbed his finger towards Ning Youyou's forehead,

"Then where is the philtrum?!"

Ning Youyou, covering her forehead in pain, sounded aggrieved. She didn't understand why she was getting scolded for doing a good deed.

"The philtrum... damn it! Look it up online yourself!"

Chen Jianhai stood up, brushing the sand off himself, and opened a bottle of ice-cold soda, gulping it down.

He felt much calmer.

He quickly took out his phone and opened Wu Kai's Weibo.

Sure enough, the top comment was a reply from Blue Sky Travel Agency's official account, including a link to purchase packages.

There were countless people discussing it below.

Damn...

How am I supposed to grow quietly like this!? 

Just as he was feeling troubled, Wen Zifan called: "Boss, is it convenient to talk now?"

Chen Jianhai said, "It's convenient, go ahead."

Wen Zifan got straight to the point: "The 'Sweetheart Mr.' crew found out about the island hotel. They like the location and want to shoot there for a few days, offering the same price of 100,000 per day."

Chen Jianhai's head buzzed. Why is the film crew causing trouble now too!

"I got it. Anything else?"

Wen Zifan continued, "Yes."

Chen Jianhai's heart tightened, "What else?"

Wen Zifan said, "The crew wants to come over next week if possible..."

Chen Jianhai took a deep breath, trying to calm down, and said, "Alright, anything else?"

Wen Zifan said, "Yes."

Chen Jianhai's voice raised, "Still more?"

Wen Zifan said, "Many people have already found out that the island hotel is a branch of our Langai Hotel and have been inquiring at the front desk about staying at the island hotel..."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Jianhai slumped into his chair.

How did things turn out like this...

Actually, Chen Jianhai knew deep down that unless the island hotel was always enclosed, not operating, and not receiving guests, it was bound to be discovered one day.

The only difference was whether that day came sooner or later.

Under the setting sun, the island hotel stood quietly on the beach, draped in a golden veil, seemingly gazing out at the sea.

"In the past, I was afraid of having no guests and eagerly awaited business every day. Now that business is coming to me, I'm actually unhappy?"

Chen Jianhai mumbled:

"Other hotels try everything to advertise and promote. I have a film star promoting personally, what more could I ask for?!"

Many people hope for a change of fortune day and night, but it often ends up being an illusion.

And right in front of him was a ready-made opportunity; should he push it away?

Thinking this,

Chen Jianhai smacked his head hard, muttering:

"I've barely enjoyed the good days, and now I'm getting complacent!"

...

Xiao Xia was in his office drafting the latest one-day tour and accommodation plan and contract for Xiaomajia Island.

Suddenly, he noticed a message from Chen Jianhai:

"The plan is feasible, but send me the finalized agreement first."

Xiao Xia's face lit up with joy, and he quickly replied, "Got it, Boss Chen!"

...

A few hours later, Chen Jianhai received Xiao Xia's electronic agreement.

The content of the agreement hadn't changed much, just some modifications in pricing and accommodation-related clauses.

Firstly, if travelers choose to stay at Langai Hotel and take a one-day tour at the private vacation estate, the price remains 699.

Secondly, if travelers choose to stay directly at the island hotel, apart from the 600 yuan fee for the travel agency's related activities,

they must also pay 2999, 3999, or 4999 yuan for the room, depending on the room type chosen at the island hotel.

In the promotional pictures,

the travel agency thoughtfully included photos and descriptions of various room types at the island hotel for customers to choose from.

Looking at the agreement, Chen Jianhai frowned slightly at the room prices,

after all, he intended the island hotel to be mid-to-high-end,

but this pricing... seemed a bit high.

However, given the high-end amenities at the island hotel, pricing it too low didn't seem appropriate either.

Fine!

Let's release this price first and see how the market reacts.

If customers find the price unreasonable, it can be adjusted later.

"This agreement content is fine, thanks, buddy." Chen Jianhai texted Xiao Xia.

"No trouble at all! Thank you for your hotel! Our travel agency's business has been great this year." Xiao Xia quickly replied.

"Thank you for choosing our travel agency and partnering with us!"

"Really, thank you!"

Just as Chen Jianhai was about to reply, a familiar voice echoed in his mind:

"Ding!"

"Hotel Influence and Boosting Ability Task released. Please check it in time."

Then, a large deep blue system panel opened in front of Chen Jianhai,

"System Task: Hotel's Influence and Boosting Ability Value to reach 500."

"Task Description: Hotel development is not isolated."

"A positive hotel development environment not only provides growth opportunities for employees but also promotes the development and construction of surrounding industries."

"Please accelerate the hotel's influence and boosting ability, and act as a pioneer and progressive force to promote the development and construction of this and other industries!"

"Task Reward: Obtain any facility around the hotel."

Chen Jianhai put down his phone, staring blankly at the large system panel in front of him,

I'm just running a hotel, who am I supposed to boost?!

Wait... how did this task get triggered?!

Could it be the system was stimulated by Blue Sky Travel Agency?

Chen Jianhai carefully reviewed the system task several times, thought about the cause and effect,

and finally attributed the task trigger to Blue Sky Travel Agency.

"Youyou, can I ask you something?"

Chen Jianhai waved at Ning Youyou.

Ning Youyou was engrossed in her phone, not knowing what she was looking at so intently.

Startled by Chen Jianhai's call,

"What?"

Ning Youyou quickly flipped her phone screen down on the table, her face turning red as she looked at Chen Jianhai.

"How's your travel agency doing this year?" Chen Jianhai asked.

Ning Youyou instantly became cautious, "Why do you want to know?"

Chen Jianhai said helplessly, "We're not competitors, so why are you so wary? I'm just curious."

Ning Youyou hesitated, then said,

"Last year my monthly salary was over 4,000 yuan, this year it's 8,000."

Wow!

Double!!

Chen Jianhai: I get it.
