American Legendary Life
Chapter 81: McDonald's, family time
"Does the new governor have any ideas?" Standing in the corner, Li Zitao and Jevich chatted casually.
"White wants to meet you." A trace of irony appeared in the corner of Jevich's mouth: "Our mayor may not yet know that White and I were playmates who grew up together."
"Are you showing off?" Li Zitao said silently, ‘good childish feeling. ’
"Charlie, you have a lot of moves in California, do you really have a plan to transfer?" Jevich digressed.
Just after White took office, Jevich met with him to discuss the matter.
IL's overall economy, like the entire United States, has fallen sharply. At this time, any company that can maintain its momentum in a disaster is worth vigorously drawing.
Look at how many jobs Li Zitao’s S.H.I.E.L.D. and Bechtel brought to IL, which totaled more than 5,000 people.
Although most of them are Chinese, this does not deny his achievements. Especially after Nick’s election, the vice president’s ruling philosophy is to eliminate racial differences, make the American culture more diverse, and create greater diversity. civilization.
If anyone dared to deny it at this point, without Jevic's opening, Nick would spray him **** in Congress.
The employment of more than 5,000 people has brought huge consumption to Chicago, and the political value it contains is only known to them as politicians.
Moreover, Li Zitao's men not only have SHIELD and Bechtel, the new Golden Arch Company, in addition to the newly opened McDonald's, another chain brand is being established.
Yevich personally visited those stores under construction, they can also bring new jobs, roughly estimate that Li Zitao's employees will reach tens of thousands of people.
If White had not just taken office, there were too many facts on hand, and today he will go to the scene to have a good chat with Li Zitao.
"Jevich, that is not what we should consider now, it is still far away." Li Zitao did not deny his idea of transferring, but he still needs time to consider whether the industry under his name will be transferred to the west.
For now, he is more inclined to put the headquarters of SHIELD and Golden Arch in Chicago. Even if the city is surpassed by Los Angeles in the future, it is still the financial center of the United States.
Chicago, which occupies an important geographical location, has an irreplaceable status and significance in other cities.
"Charlie, don't forget to have your friend here." Jevich said seriously.
"Of course, I will never forget my friends." Li Zitao said with a smile.
Just when the reception was held, the principals of each store had quietly left and went to their respective stores to prepare for opening.
February 1, 1930, at 10 a.m., in the bustling crowded areas of IL, major arterial entrances and exits, and new McDonald's franchise stores opened at the same time.
Firecrackers sounded, gongs and drums roared, and then the lion dance team debuted. Each McDonald’s had a large parking lot next to it, which was now completely turned into a circus.
Fire show, hitting iron flowers, throwing fire circles, one after another program attracted passing traffic and crowds, let them stop curiously.
"Welcome to McDonald's, today McDonald's will open in unison, 50% off the whole venue, welcome everyone to come and experience." Yan Yan, dressed in a star-stripe flag graphic uniform, stood at the door and shouted to the people who stopped.
"It looks good, do you want to try?" Just moved to a family of three in the suburbs, the woman looked at her curiously.
"Go and see, if it costs more than US$1, we will leave." The host is somewhat reluctant and still doubts the majority of Chinese.
There will always be a lot of strange things in their food, which will make people die, and men hope that they will not see it here.
When they walked into the bright and beautiful storefront made of glass, they looked at the neat tables and decorated with stars and stripes all over the place, and the staff with a beaming smile behind the cash register, the warm welcome sound, just a moment of mood Got up.
In this day of suffering, everyone wants to see a smile instead of numb despair.
This store of more than 100 square meters is like another space divided outside the world, making people involuntarily feel happy.
"Welcome to McDonald's, where you can experience the feeling of being at home." The banner on the cash register is printed with large gold characters, so that the corner of the mouth of the family of three naturally rises.
"Gosh, my dear, the things here are so cheap." While the men looked around, the women had turned their attention to the price list.
The price list on the back row of the cash register reads:
Hamburger/15 cents.
Coke/5 cents.
French fries/8 cents.
Provide free drinking water and dining environment without tip.
Don’t underestimate the last sentence, free drinking water and dining environment, without the temptation of tipping, and the price above is also full of temptations.
"Me, what should I do?" The man who had never seen such a meal buying model stepped forward and asked with restraint.
The dress here is too beautiful, the clean and smooth floor, the leather sofa seats, and the warm smile, giving people a sense of sight in a high-end restaurant.
"Sir, you only need to order food here, you can take away your food within 30 seconds, choose the dining location at will, after eating, there is a garbage collection area, you need to put the garbage into the trash can, and put the meal tray It’s just on the table above."
Hearing the cashier’s remarks, the male owner frowned and wanted to clean the garbage himself. This sounds very troublesome.
But when he raised his head to see the other party's bright smile, he couldn't bear to say harsh words.
"Hey, man, can you hurry up?" There was a rush of dissatisfaction from behind.
Looking back, the man realized that there was a long line behind him. The line was already outside the shop door, and more people joined.
turned his head and found that the cashier's smile was still the same. His heart was full of satisfaction: "I want 3 burgers, 2 cups of cola and 1 fries."
Ding!
The sound of a typewriter sounded in the weird machine in front of the cashier: "Hello, a total of 36.5 cents."
"Gosh, 36.5 cents, this is really too cheap, man, please hurry up." People who heard the price became commotion again, they were afraid that these foods would be sold out soon.
"Your meal is ready, I wish you a happy meal." The man just pulled out the money, and the food was already placed on the tray in front of him.
handed the money to the other party in a hurry, and the man hurried away with the dinner plate urged by others.
"I want 4 hamburgers, 2 cups of cola, 2 servings of fries, are all 50% off?" the girl from the back asked excitedly.
"Of course, today is 50% off all day." Seeing that there is only one girl, the cashier asked while catering: "Do I need to pack it for you?"
"Do I need to pay?" the girl Qiyi asked.
"No, we provide free food bags." Yan Yan took his place. There is no need to shout outside, and the team will soon be lined up on the street.
"Need, thank you." Seeing Yan Yan, who was also a girl, the other party was relieved and quickly passed the money to her.
The large paper bag with the golden arch logo read: "McDonald's, a good time for family."
Simple slogans and golden signs look very beautiful, the paper bag is very strong, such a paper bag needs at least 0.2 cents, and it is provided free of charge here.
"Maybe I can use it as a shopping bag." The girl rolled the paper bag into a handle and pinched it to leave happily.
"10 hamburgers, 4 cups of cola, I also need to pack." The man who stepped up again counted the change and put the money directly on the table.
Less than 30 seconds, all the meals were prepared, and the man took it with satisfaction and left.
Watching the crowd come and go, one by one fresh burgers and cola were bagged and taken away. The guests in the store talked with their families and happily ate food. Yan Yan was full of pride; "McDonald's, succeeded."
The same scene happened in all areas of IL at the same time. The burger with vegetables, butter, bread and patties is only $7.50 today.
What makes people even more excited is that they don’t need to pay attention to their clothes, don’t need to pay tips, and don’t need to deal with difficult waiters.
At this time in the United States, eating out is never a pleasant thing, except in some chaotic places, eating cheap food~www.wuxiaspot.com~ also have to worry about safety at any time, wanting to have dinner is an ordinary family Expectation.
Their only option is to buy ingredients and make a simple meal at home to have dinner together, and often the price of these foods is not cheap.
Now it’s different. Although there are only simple burgers and coke, you can chat and laugh in the city freely, do what you want, and don’t worry about the contemptuous look and rush of the waiter. “This is great, it’s great. !"
Soon, the McDonald's wave swept through the entire IL, and spread to other surrounding states, "McDonald's, a good time for family."
