Chapter 436: Huge Venue
In the circular hall, dozens of giant oil paintings guard a screen of the same size in the center.
Yao Jun turned around and gave a few instructions to the assistant behind him, and the assistant left in a hurry.
Not long after, all the lights in the entire circular hall suddenly went out, leaving only the spotlights below the oil paintings, illuminating the contents of the paintings.
At the same time, the dark screen lit up, and a towering snow-capped mountain fell from the sky. A tiny human figure was moving slowly and steadily on it.
It was the scene of Bifang climbing Mount Everest. The picture was extremely clear, and even had a naked-eye 3D effect!
I spent a lot of money just on this screen!
The music lasted for a full ten minutes before the lights in the entire venue came on again. Etienne and Bifang still felt a little unsatisfied.
I didn't feel anything when I climbed it myself, but I didn't expect it to be so shocking to watch from the side, especially the strong contrast between the mountains and the human figures.
"Wonderful!"
Bifang gave the two of them a thumbs up. As a hands-off boss, he had basically never participated in the construction of the venue and never expected that this club could bring such a big surprise.
The huge size of these oil paintings alone can bring him great impact and oppression, not to mention the tension-filled paintings.
It has to be said that the artistic conception of ink painting is incomparable and fascinating, but the tension of oil painting in epic scenes is even more shocking.
It is easy to imagine how tourists feel when they come here.
Yao Jun explained: "This is just a preview. From now on, this screen will only light up when you are live streaming. The rest of the time it will be off."
Noticing Etienne's presence, Yao Jun specifically explained in English.
Etienne's favorable impression increased, but he was still curious: "Why not broadcast it all the time?"
Lin Chang took over the conversation: "This is to ensure the attraction. If it keeps playing, wouldn't it be the same as the square screen?"
This was also Lin Chang's idea at first. In his opinion, 24-hour non-stop broadcasting was no different from square broadcasting.
The style is too low.
Can’t tourists watch Fang Shen’s live broadcast anywhere else?
People who come here want uniqueness, the atmosphere of personal experience, rather than a large screen in the square that plays content on a loop.
In the club founded by Fang Shen, watching the screen that lights up only for him is the real core attraction . Scarcity makes things valuable. When the screen lights up, the venue will be packed with people.
"You are Etienne, right?" Yao Jun turned his head and looked at Etienne beside him.
Etienne nodded vigorously and said excitedly, "I know, you are Mr. Yao Jun. I saw you on the live broadcast of Mount Everest."
Yao Jun tilted his head and called towards the interior of the venue: "Come on, I'll take you to see the interior architecture!"
"Wuhu!" Etienne rushed to the front unusually.
Yao Jun, Lin Chang and Bi Fang followed behind to discuss some more specific matters.
"Is there something going to be placed on that fountain outside?" Bifang thought of the huge platform on the fountain outside and asked curiously.
"Your sculpture!" Yao Jun danced with joy. "It's the sculpture of the moment you climbed Mount Everest, standing on the top of the mountain, holding the red flag. That scene is so cool. It's a pity that it hasn't been completed yet. But there is still half a month before the opening, which is enough time."
It has only been a week since we reached the summit of Mount Everest. The oil painting can be completed in a hurry, but the sculpture is obviously not possible.
Bifang was dumbfounded and a little embarrassed: "Change someone, it's better not to include me."
Yao Jun was stunned: "Why?"
This was the scene he had preset. A marble sculpture several meters high, so shocking. How could he just give it up?
Lin Chang pondered for a moment and said, "Too much personal touch?"
Bifang nodded: "This is a club, not my personal memorial hall. It welcomes all lovers of nature and wilderness, not just my fans. My fans alone can't support it. Those oil paintings just now were exaggerated, but they are still inside the venue, which is just right. However, putting up sculptures in the square is too much."
Yao Jun also reacted and nodded. If a stranger who was interested in nature came here and saw a statue of someone he didn't know or didn't like, wouldn't that be a dissuade him from coming?
This is a wilderness and nature club, not a Bifang fan club. The former is already a circle. If we add a smaller circle, it would be completely self-limiting and unnecessary.
The oil paintings and big screens in the first venue are enough to excite fans, especially there is a special exhibition hall at the back, which displays the traps and weapons mentioned by Bifang. When leaving, you can also take away a wolf's tooth or shark's tooth made of jade or glass.
"What's the point of erecting this? The platform has been built, the sculpture over there has also begun, and most of the top of Mount Everest has been carved. Besides, if we have to re-carve it, half a month might not be enough." Yao Jun didn't want to let his hard work go to waste, so he still wanted to struggle.
The building will open in half a month, and by then it will look inappropriate to have a platform above the fountain.
Bifang stroked his chin and thought for a while: "Let them change the plan. Remove me from Mount Everest and carve animals on the mountain, semi-protruding ones, bears, wolves, deer and pseudo-crocodiles. If there is a better plan in the future, you can replace them."
Yao Jun thought about it and nodded. This way it could be reused and the construction period would not be too tight.
Everyone followed Etienne to visit each venue. Etienne didn't understand Chinese, so he tried each one under the guidance of the staff.
Bifang and others also watched with great interest, treating it as simulated tourists entering the venue.
Fighting, archery, swimming, rock climbing...
These are all indoor sports venues, but the main attraction is definitely not here. If it relied solely on these, it would become an alternative niche gymnasium and would go bankrupt within three days.
As a wilderness club, these gyms are indispensable, but the money they can make is definitely limited. There are not many people who love sports, let alone those who love these niche sports.
To stimulate consumption, we still have to rely on the masses. One person spending 10 million is far less effective than 10,000 people spending 1,000 yuan.
This is something we learned in junior high school zz class, so we must find a way to do it in business.
"So we also referred to the model of the Children's Palace and launched summer and winter vacation courses for teenagers, which are similar to the summer camp training in the United States. After training here for one month, they can participate in a week-long outdoor camping activity." Yao Jun explained.
It has to be said that the main consumer force is still young people and women...
But relying solely on operations is not enough, core competitiveness is still required. Therefore, in addition to the sports venues, there are also more open rainforest halls, desert halls and ocean halls.
"Aquarium?" Bifang stopped and looked at Yao Jun and Lin Chang in a daze.
He knew about the first two, and Bifang was not completely clueless. After all, he held a large portion of the shares, so he probably knew .
What's going on with the latter?
These venues cover a very large area, so large that even Bifang was shocked when he first saw the design plan. If you ignore the roof, you can't tell that it is an indoor environment at all.
The terrain inside is completely based on rainforests and deserts, and there are many environmental creatures hidden.
For example, the Rainforest Pavilion is a complete rainforest. In addition to rainforest plants, there are many special environments simulated in glass tanks, which contain rainforest creatures, poison dart frogs, snakes, and some other creatures.
There are even harmless creatures that are released directly, such as lizards, which can be approached up close. Of course, there are dedicated people responsible for this to avoid trampling incidents that could cause the animals to die.
But the aquarium, that thing is very expensive, right?
Unlike rainforests and deserts, which only require laying and unfolding, the construction of ocean venues requires a completely different model.
From the water circulation system to the super-large customized aquarium and ecological environment construction.
And this isn't just about releasing some poisonous snakes, insects and small animals. It has to include animals that you don't normally see, such as sharks, swordfish and dolphins. Otherwise, you might as well go to the local fish market.
But normal people can't get these things. They are expensive and troublesome. It is not easy to raise them. They require special breeders, which are completely different from the "breeders" in the rainforest who can work with a little training.
Yao Jun and Lin Chang smiled at each other and said, "It all comes back to policy support. When the plan was first submitted, the local authorities were willing to support it. Many places gave the green light, and the surrounding planning was also rearranged. For example, the aquarium that was originally scheduled to be relocated was moved directly to our place."
"According to the time, the construction is almost completed. Do you want to go take a look?"
