In November, Yanjing was already full of snowflakes, the north wind was blowing, and a strong wind was blowing. The scattered snowflakes hit the face like a knife.

But when I opened the door and entered the Qingtian Internet Cafe, I felt like I had entered a warm spring, and even felt a little hot.

As the largest enterprise in China, Qingtian no longer needs to use modifiers or attributes such as "private enterprise" and "high technology" to add luster to itself.

Qingtian is now the largest company in China, and there is no one like it. Even if you look at China, you can't even find another company that is at the same level as it.

Last year, with a revenue of 250 billion Huaxia coins, Qingtian ranked 76th among the world's top 500 companies. Even it was only one step away from the top 50. No surprises are expected.

If so, you can enter this year.

Although it ranks 50th in the Fortune Global 500, it is Italy's largest industrial monopoly group, the National Monopoly Capital Organization, and the Italian Industrial Renaissance Company.

Its revenue last year reached US$41 billion.

But the momentum of Qingtian this year is not bad, especially after the addition of Qingtian chips, the revenue is expected to increase by US$10 billion. Exceeding it should not be a big problem.

In addition to Qingtian, China's highest ranking among the world's top 500 companies is Bank of China, which ranks 167th. Although Bank of China's revenue has reached 19 billion US dollars, its profits are only a pitiful US$800 million, which is nearly 10 billion US dollars compared with Qingtian.

Compared with the profit in US dollars, it is obviously not at the same level.

Therefore, since Qingtian intends to build an Internet cafe, it is impossible to do it badly, not to mention that Fang Chen himself is determined to make Qingtian Internet Cafe a benchmark for Chinese Internet cafes.

It can be said that in Qingtian's Internet cafes in the north, all those who can turn on the heating must have turned on the heating. If there are really no residential areas, factories, or shopping malls around, then keep the three 5-horsepower air conditioners at full output.

After all, the electricity bill for three 5-horsepower air conditioners is only 120 yuan per day, which is equivalent to the Internet fee for a computer.

On average, each Qingtian Internet Cafe has at least two hundred computers, so the Internet fee for one computer is very low.

"Baby, to be honest, even if you don't turn on the air conditioner, it's probably very warm here."

Looking at the rows of computers and the bustling crowd, Su Yan rolled her eyes and complained helplessly.

"Yeah?"

Fang Chen didn't take his eyes off the screen and responded in an extremely perfunctory manner.

"Why not? Look at your computers, host and monitor. On average, each one has at least 500 watts of power. Those two hundred units have a power of 10,000 watts. And then we also count people, no matter how tall, short, fat or thin they are.

, Let’s take the average as an example, each person is basically equivalent to a small appliance with a power of 70W, and there are at least 400 people in your Internet cafe, which is 28,000 kilowatts.”

"The two items are combined, which is 38,000 kilowatts. If converted into heat, it is 32.68 million kcal, or calculated based on the heating capacity of each air conditioner is 735 watts. Your 38,000 kilowatts are not enough.

It’s a 100-horsepower air conditioner.”

"Of course, this is just theoretical data. After all, the amount of heat released by each person is different depending on the amount of clothes they wear. In particular, it will be affected by the thermal insulation coefficient of the room. But in any case, these three air conditioners are nothing.

The decisive source of heat is, at best, just the icing on the cake.”

After listening to Su Yan's series of theoretical analysis, everyone around him, not to mention Fang Chen, was dumbfounded.

They have lived for more than 20 years, and they have never seen a scholar like Su Yan who actually connected computers and people with the amount of air-conditioning heating, and calculated it clearly.

In other words, the life of a top student is too far away from them and they don't understand it.

However, when Su Yan said this, they did find that the room was not cold, but actually a little warm. Some young men had even put off their big cotton-padded jackets before and wore long-sleeved ones.

But even so, beads of sweat couldn't stop appearing on the young man's forehead.

Of course, the reason why this room is so hot is also due to the huge heat-generating CPU chip on the Qingtian host.

When this CPU chip is running in the summer, it is indeed quite torturous, especially if there are several Optimus computers in the office, the room will be so hot that it will make you unable to stay there.

But in winter, especially when the wind is freezing and college is busy, this CPU chip is really precious. If you put it in the house, not to mention that the whole house will be warmed, but carrying two hot water bottles is absolutely nothing.

question.

And because of the cold weather and the drop in temperature, when some geeks tested the performance of the Optimus computer, they unexpectedly found that the performance of the Optimus chip was about 5% to 8% higher than when it was first released.

There was no way. It was because the heat was too high. Once the heat reached the temperature wall, the Qingtian chip had to reduce the frequency to avoid crashes.

Now that the weather is cold, it is not easy to reach the temperature wall. On the contrary, it can make the Qingtian chip release higher performance.

Therefore, some computer magazines have suggested that if qualified computer players can obtain a better performance experience by replacing the Optimus chip with a better radiator and silicone grease.

But to be honest, Fang Chen looked around and couldn't help but smile bitterly. There were indeed too many people in this Internet cafe, and it was a bit scary.

There are two hundred computers, all of which are full, and basically there are one or two people standing behind each computer, eagerly looking at the images displayed on the computer screen, just like hunters waiting for their prey to enter the hunting area.

Some people have even stood at two or three points and are still persisting.

This is why, although there are only two hundred computers in Qingtian Internet Cafe, Su Yan can count about four hundred people.

But to be honest, let alone Qingtian's Internet cafe, even other Internet cafes are basically in the same situation at this time.

There is no way, China has too few computers. Even though computer production capacity has increased a lot in recent years, China actually produces only two million computers every year.

Even counting the previous stock, there are only 10 million units at most, and most of these 10 million units are still scattered in government agencies, colleges and universities, individual households, etc. In fact, computers that can be used to open Internet cafes are used three times in a row.

There are not even a million units.

And these three million computers are really a drop in the bucket for China's nearly 400 million young people aged ten to thirty-five, and cannot even satisfy one percent.

Therefore, now it is basically an Internet cafe, whether it is white or black, as long as there are so many computers, every one of them is full.

Of course, compared to regular large Internet cafes like Qingtian Internet Cafe, the number of users under the age of 18 will increase dramatically in those small Internet cafes with only seven or eight computers.

There is no way, Internet cafes are too rare now, so any large and formal Internet cafes are actually not short of customers now.

Even on the contrary, they also have the right to choose customers that some later Internet cafes only dream of.

Besides, the Internet fee for a computer for an hour is fixed anyway. No matter it is eight yuan or ten yuan, as long as you turn it on, even if your father comes to visit, it will still cost you so much.

Since they can't gain extra profits from customers under the age of 18, and will incur other risks, why do they want to do business with customers under the age of 18?

In this way, these customers under the age of 18 are pushed into the arms of small Internet cafes and black Internet cafes.

Furthermore, although these users under the age of 18 are relatively young, they have a fanatical love for computers, especially computer games, that adults do not have.

After all, this is the age where you love to play.

It is not an exaggeration to call it the backbone of Internet cafes. This is well proven by the fact that in later generations, after the anti-addiction system was launched in China, the number of people online in a large number of games dropped by a large percentage.

.

Of course, the reason why Qingtian Internet Cafe is so popular is that in addition to the internal decoration environment of Qingtian Internet Cafe, which is considered top-notch among all Internet cafes, another important reason is that the Internet fee of Qingtian Internet Cafe is relatively cheap.

The cheapest computer, which does not have a discrete graphics card but only an integrated graphics card and cannot play any large games, costs five yuan per hour.

This kind of computer is the kind of simplified version of the Optimus computer that Fang Chen told Dean Zhu before, which is more than a thousand yuan cheaper than the standard version of the Optimus computer.

After all, for the vast majority of government agencies, their demand for graphics cards is basically zero, as long as they can work well.

Considering that not all Internet cafes are filled with people playing games, each Qingtian Internet cafe is equipped with almost a quarter of computers without graphics cards.

If you install a computer with a Genesis 128 graphics card, it will cost eight yuan per hour.

Basically, it can be said that it is much cheaper than most Internet cafes, and the price is almost the same as that of black Internet cafes.

There is no way, who lets Qingtian open an Internet cafe by himself? He has huge advantages that other Internet cafe owners cannot match.

First of all, the computers in the Internet cafe are owned by oneself, and secondly, the entire Internet cafe's land is owned by oneself, and then the decoration team is also owned by oneself, and even the network cables are owned by oneself.

There is no way, who knows that Qingtian has a subsidiary called Qingtian Computer.

Although Qingtian Telecom is still far from being self-financing and still needs a large amount of subsidies from the head office, it can still do it by giving Qingtian Internet Cafe a cost price.

Therefore, even the cost of Internet access, Qingtian Internet Cafe is more than 50% cheaper than other Internet cafes. However, what makes other Internet cafes even more envious is that they want to apply for more bandwidth, which is extremely difficult, but Qingtian Internet Cafe wants to

As much as you can get from Qingtian Telecom.

If the local bandwidth of Qingtian Telecom is not enough, you can also apply for expansion.

Internet cafes can actually command telecom operators. This is so terrifying, it's almost like cheating.

As for these tables, chairs and benches, products that Qingtian does not produce, Qingtian also used its huge quantity advantage to overwhelm a furniture factory to an astonishing degree with a gross profit of no more than 10%.

There is no way, normal furniture factories can only make two to three hundred pieces of the same piece of furniture at most, and thousands of pieces are already considered rare.

As for Qingtian, the initial purchase price is 200,000 sets, which means that even if the furniture factory earns ten yuan for one set, after completing the 200,000 sets, it will be a profit of 2 million.

Top them and get orders for two to three years.

Furthermore, 200,000 sets of the same product itself has a huge price advantage.

It can be said that even if the furniture factory quotes Qingtian at the current cost price, it can earn a lot of money.

Even the price of purchasing tables, chairs and benches at Qingtian Internet Cafe is much cheaper than other Internet cafes, so how can the cost of Qingtian Internet Cafe be so high?

Someone in the retail department has calculated it specifically. On average, if you exclude the difference in rent, the cost of opening a Qingtian Internet cafe is basically 30% lower than that of an Internet cafe of the same size. If you include the rent, it will be cut in half.

50%.

This is the advantage of owning property. It can keep various costs to the lowest possible level, thereby generating huge profits.

The retail department has calculated that basically every standard Qingtian Internet cafe can generate more than 300,000 yuan in revenue a month, and the profit can reach nearly 200,000 yuan.

After all, you must know that in addition to the Internet access fees, each Qingtian Internet Cafe is also a small retail store, selling a large amount of instant noodles, peanuts, melon seeds, spicy strips and other snacks to these users.

Although the profit margins of these side businesses cannot be compared with Internet fees, they can still be a considerable amount of profit if you add up.

Even just looking at the more than 400 heads, we know that Qingtian Internet Cafe’s daily sideline income is absolutely indispensable.

The only problem is that they spent too much money in the early stage. Although Qingtian Computer has only opened a thousand stores in the past six months, Qingtian has already spent more than one billion.

There's no way around it. Just these two hundred computers are already worth one million. If you include the purchase of property, decoration, tables, chairs, benches, network cables and other messy expenses, it doesn't cost that much.

Ordinary people can spend more than one million at once to open an Internet cafe like this.

Furthermore, even if they have money, most people will only choose to use the money to buy computers instead of buying real estate.

After all, Internet cafes are a business that relies on selling computer usage rights to make money.

The more computers you have, the more money you can earn. The rent money is nothing compared to the money you can earn from buying more computers.

Therefore, many local Internet cafe owners think that Qingtian is just burning money by doing this.

But regardless of whether these Internet cafe owners really feel this way, or whether they are jealous or jealous, Qingtian Internet Cafe is full because of its good decoration environment, low prices, and huge demand.
