Super Resort Tycoon

Chapter 238
After listening to the introduction of the system, Li Yang's biggest impression of Bali is the strong religious atmosphere, which is also the biggest feature of Bali.

It is completely different from Bora Bora. The beauty of Bora Bora is its unique natural landscape, well-preserved ecological environment, and beauty without carving...

The beauty of Bali is not only the natural scenery, but also its strong religious culture...

The area of ​​Bali is actually not small, almost equivalent to one-sixth of Hainan Island, with a population of about 315 million people and a long history and culture...

Many buildings on the island are very distinctive, with a strong Hindu atmosphere. Some people say that there are more temples in Bali than houses. Although this is a bit exaggerated, it is really similar...

Most of the Balinese believe in Hinduism and worship the three gods of heaven, as well as the sun god, water god, fire god, wind god and so on.

People here worship everything, including cars, trees, and flowers...

For the Balinese, sincere worship of all things is the only necessity.

Therefore, on the road, you can see all kinds of statues and stone carvings of gods and animals everywhere, especially in the center of the square of some main roads, there will be a statue of a Hindu god, which is lifelike and has a strong religious atmosphere. Impressive place.

In addition, in the streets and alleys of the island, tributes placed on the ground and in front of shrines can be seen everywhere, whether it is hotels, supermarkets, shops, or scenic spots, etc., without exception, they can be seen everywhere...

Those offerings are square plates woven with bamboo leaves, which are filled with bright and gorgeous flowers, incense, candles or fruits. They actually look pretty, just like a flower box. landscape...

The target hotel Li Yang wants to acquire this time is located on the Phuket Peninsula on the south coast of Bali, standing on a limestone cliff more than 100 meters high on the coast, which is spectacular.

The style of this hotel is not as high-profile and luxurious as the Four Seasons Hotel, and it shows nobility everywhere.

The style here is mostly simple, but it looks low-key. The overall building is mostly light and gray, which makes people feel very comfortable.

The biggest feature of the hotel is the bird's nest-style building built on the cliff. Half of the building is outside the cliff, with the turbulent sea at its feet, and the scenery is excellent.

The resort is 30 kilometers away from the city center, only 12 kilometers away from the airport, and less than five kilometers away from Bali's famous scenic spot, Lover's Cliff.

In fact, the hotel is excellent in terms of geographical location, hardware facilities, architectural style, etc.

However, due to poor management and fierce competition from resort hotels in Bali, this resort hotel, which has only been established for less than ten years, has been losing money for three consecutive years. It is currently looking for buyers around the world. The current market valuation is about 5 million yuan.

You must know that there is no shortage of unique resort hotels in Bali. There are many world-class hotels here, whether it is this kind of seaside resort hotel or the tropical jungle resort hotel in the mountains.

Each is unique and attracts tourists from all over the world.

It can be said that Bali is famous not only for its rich religious culture, but also for its colorful island scenery, as well as its resort hotels full of flowers.

"Another difficult owner!" Li Yang slandered. Although the natural flow of tourists in Bali is very high, the competition is equally fierce. It is indeed a big challenge to turn such a loss-making hotel into profit.

"It seems that it's time to calm down and think about how to complete this mission!" Li Yangxin said.

While he was looking at the system tasks, his hook fell on a big fish.

"Haha, I caught another one!" Li Yang shouted happily.

At noon, Li Yang took his family to the private island he had been to before, had a hearty meal, and grilled all the fish they caught.

The sun in Bora Bora is really vicious. Even though Li Yang and the others put on sunscreen every day, in the past half a month, the family has obviously lost two shades.

……

In the next few days, Li Yang began to inquire about all the information about Eisel Resort Hotel and Bali. He also asked Mihir to help him obtain a lot of industry data, including the analysis report of tourists in Bali and the analysis report of hotels in Bali. , Huaxia Outbound Travel Analysis Report, etc., for his analysis and reference.

After a few days of careful research and analysis, Li Yang has a more objective and comprehensive understanding of this island that was often heard about in celebrity wedding news.

Bali is a world-recognized honeymoon and wedding holy place. Many Chinese stars have their weddings held in Bali, which also makes the island more famous in China and has become an ideal place for many rich people to get married and honeymoon.

Moreover, Bali is not as far away from China as Tahiti, and there are many direct flights. The geographical location and traffic environment are far superior to Bora Bora, Tahiti.

In addition to the natural scenery of most islands and various resort hotels, the island also has many famous scenic spots and cultural landscapes, which are also in line with the current preferences of domestic tourists.

It has to be admitted that the vast majority of tourists in China currently have completely different preferences and tendencies in the concept of travel and vacation from tourists from developed countries in Europe and the United States.

Europeans and Americans prefer to find a beautiful island or hotel on vacation, and just spend the whole vacation like that, enjoying a real slow life.

However, Chinese tourists are still more inclined to travel and sightseeing. If they really stay in a hotel for a week or more, they will definitely go crazy.

They want to visit more places in one trip, stay in more different hotels, check in at more scenic spots, and take more photos and videos, even if it is a honeymoon trip.

And Bali can just meet all the needs of Chinese tourists. From a certain point of view, there are many similarities with Thailand.

This is one of the reasons why Chinese tourists are more willing to go to Bali...

The above are all related to the general environment, but it is also the main theme of Bali in the Chinese market at present...

Li Yang wrote down several key words on the paper: love, wedding, honeymoon, sightseeing...

An inspiration suddenly appeared in his mind, and an idea slowly took shape...

Finally, he wrote the word "star" on the paper and drew a circle on it!

However, since he has not visited Bali in person, his understanding of Eisener Resort Hotel is not deep enough, and his analysis of the surrounding competitive environment is not enough, so he has not been able to form a final plan.

The handover of the Four Seasons Hotel has finally come to an end, and the acquisition procedures have also been completed. The Four Seasons Resort Hotel has officially changed its name to Pandora Resort Hotel.

The name was obtained by Li Yang before. He thought this place was as beautiful as the Pandora planet in Avatar, so he chose such a non-creative name.

And since the name needs an English name, and Pandora's English name has already been registered, the English name of the hotel is composed of Pandora's pinyin, which is more convenient for domestic tourists to identify.

Although the hotel has completely changed hands, all the employees in the resort hotel have remained. After all, they are basically locals who have worked in the hotel for many years and have both feelings and experience.

Li Yang also promised to keep all the benefits for the employees unchanged, so whether the hotel is sold or not, it is actually the same for these employees.

After all, the people here don't care whether they are in the world's top [-] companies, and whether their company name can be pretended to beep!

However, although the internal operation of the hotel is almost unaffected, some online booking platforms have to re-sign the contract and go online with a new name, and the hotel's marketing to countries around the world has to be re-launched.

After the completion of this acquisition, the hotel will definitely lose many foreign customers, or customers who are directed at the Four Seasons Hotel brand, which is inevitable.

After staying in Bora Bora for more than 20 days, Li Yang returned to Huaxia with his whole family.

After returning to China, Li Yang immediately devoted himself to work, formed a new project team, contacted industry insiders and law firms, set up a temporary acquisition team, and made all preparations for the acquisition.

But because there are many things to be busy at Pandora Resort, Mihir is basically unable to participate in the acquisition project of Bali Esser Resort.

She can only give Li Yang some necessary help remotely.

After more than half a month of careful preparation, the project team prepared all kinds of materials and procedures. Li Yang also took the staff in charge of the acquisition project and a financial consultant to Bali Island to prepare for cooperation with Eisener. Make initial contacts.

There is a direct flight from Chengdu to Bali to Bali, and it only takes about six hours to get there, and it is really convenient to be exempted from visas.

When Li Yang and the others arrived in Bali, it was only after four o'clock in the afternoon, and it was still dark. After getting their luggage, they exchanged currency at the airport. Although Li Yang has a VISA credit card, he can swipe it directly, but after all, there are still many places here. Consumption, or tipping service staff, etc., still need to use banknotes.

Locals use Indonesian rupiah, or Indonesian rupiah.

One yuan can be exchanged for nearly two thousand Indonesian rupiah.

After changing the banknotes, Li Yang looked at the numbers on the currency in his hand and felt a little flustered.

The largest face value is [-], and the smallest face value is [-]!
My God, Li Yang almost got dizzy counting those zeros!
But this kind of money should be very cool to spend, and it feels very good to spend hundreds of thousands casually!
……

The hotel that Li Yang and the others booked had a pick-up service. The one who came to pick them up was a Toyota MPV, which actually looked similar to the domestic Wuling Hongguang. It was probably a model produced by Toyota specifically for the Indonesian region.

The whole car doesn't feel luxurious at all, but fortunately, the car has an air conditioner, which makes it very cool.

Not long after he came out of the airport, Li Yang saw a tall statue of a god standing in the middle of the circular square in front of him. This combination of religion and modernity is indeed a special feeling.

But on the way to the hotel, Li Yang also felt the backwardness here.

Although the tourism industry is very developed here, there are also many world-class resort hotels.

But here is still very poor, and there are not many cars on the road, and most of them are the ones they ride in. Li Yang guesses that the people sitting in it are also tourists like himself.

What can be seen along the way are more motorcycles, in groups, it is not difficult to see that motorcycles are the common means of transportation for local people.

But to Li Yang's surprise, all the motorcycle riders he saw on the road were wearing helmets, and they obeyed traffic laws very much...

This point is more enlightened than people in certain areas of their own country!

The hotel Li Yang and the others booked is located in the center of the city. The architectural style of the hotel also combines the local religious atmosphere. The yard is full of bright flowers. The most eye-catching thing is the beautiful frangipani, which fills the whole air With a refreshing fragrance.

In addition, there are many offerings filled with flowers and incense in the hotel, which also emit a special aroma, which together constitute the unique taste of Bali.

Li Yang gave the driver 50 Indonesian rupiah, which made the driver very happy. In fact, [-] Indonesian rupiah is only about [-] yuan, but it is almost equivalent to his daily salary.

After checking in and choosing breakfast for tomorrow morning, the sun outside had already set to the horizon, and the temperature began to cool down.

Li Yang and the others went shopping together in the street to feel the customs of Bali. As a tourist city, the urban area of ​​Denpasar is very lively. There are shops and restaurants on both sides of the street, and there are many Chinese restaurants. Almost every shop is at the door. There are statues of worshiped gods filled with offerings.

There are a lot of tourists on the street, Europeans, Americans and Asian faces can be seen everywhere, and people from all over the world can be seen here almost at the same time.

Suddenly, a familiar song floated into Li Yang's ears. It was a very Chinese and very old song "Sweet Honey". The singer was obviously not Chinese. Although the melody of the song was very standard, the pronunciation was obviously not so standard .

Li Yang curiously walked towards the singing voice. The singing voice came from a very popular restaurant. The facade and interior of the restaurant are made of bamboo, which is quite distinctive. Two Indonesian beauties are greeting customers at the door. They are short in stature and have dark skin. But the body shape is so lordotic and backward.

And there was a band singing a song in the restaurant, and that sweet song was sung by the female lead singer.

Hearing this old Chinese song here is really special. Li Yang and the others walked into the restaurant. There are many guests in the restaurant, mostly European and American guests. Except for the service staff, there is no Indonesian.

In fact, in Bali, tourists who can eat in restaurants are basically tourists, and locals cannot afford to eat here.

Li Yang ordered a pork chop with mashed potatoes, and a glass of watermelon juice. After the female lead singer sang a sweet song, the guests in the restaurant applauded enthusiastically.

Then she sang another English song...

Li Yang barely ate a serving of pork chops, the portion was too big, even more than the Northeast cuisine of his hometown.

After eating, the lead singer of the band was replaced by a black man. After all, if you keep singing, no one can stand it. After the female lead singer stepped down, she sat on the side to rest. Li Yang was curious why she sang old songs like sweet honey, so he went to chat with the lead singer for a while sky.

Only then did I realize that the female lead singer was originally from Guangxi, China. Her parents came to Bali to make a living when they were young, and she was also born here.

She has special feelings for Huaxia, and this song is also her mother's favorite song. Of course, this song is also very popular with foreign tourists, so she often sings it.

After coming out of the restaurant, the street became more lively. There were a lot of people on the street, but there were very few cars. It felt like a pedestrian street everywhere.

Li Yang and the others visited the shops along the street together, such as some markets selling local handicrafts, where there were many wood carvings and iron crafts with local characteristics.

"Choose whatever you want, I'll treat you!" Li Yang said to the accompanying financial advisors and staff. It was their first time in Bali, and it would be good to bring some souvenirs back to relatives and friends. Li Yang also chose a few More beautiful wood carving ornaments.
