It is mentioned in the recent news that Haidilao will gradually close down and rectify about 311 stores that fail to meet expectations before February 31, 2121, and launch the "Woodpecker" plan.

The word "woodpecker" is inevitably reminiscent of words such as bugs and governance.

Looking back on the recent development and negative news of Haidilao, it is not difficult to determine why such a plan was launched.

When the news came out, there was an uproar in the local group. After all, Haidilao went out from this small local place.

Everyone watched a small restaurant become a big enterprise step by step, and any message can stir up waves in this small city.

Haidilao first started on the second floor of a street called Sizhi Road, and at the same time, there was an Arui hot pot.

It is said that it was opened by Zhang Yong and his brother. However, after all kinds of grievances, Haidilao eventually became a well-known enterprise, and A Rui gradually became silent.

in my impression, the first Haidilao was mainly a buffet. Pieces of cake look beautiful and attractive. When children go, they always go straight to the cake plate, but they are not impressed by hot pot.

In that era when living conditions were not very good, it was very foreign to go to a self-help hot pot restaurant like Xiao County.

So Haidilao became an instant hit, and the fathers went to eat hot pot every once in a while.

Later, due to business development, Haidilao moved its store to a place called Simian Community.

this is a residential area, and the undersea building bought the second floor of the residential area. It has also changed from self-help to ordering food, which has opened up a tall mode.

walking up the high stairs, the room is brightly lit. The waiter greeted at the door was all smiles and asked questions. They bow and serve at any time, making people feel meticulous care.

When waiting for a seat, there is a free automatic shoe polisher for people to shine shoes. People in small places have little knowledge. This automatic shoe polisher is very attractive.

I remember when I was a child. Elders often say, "Go, Haidilao will clean free leather shoes." So everyone went straight to Haidilao.

Of course, when we get there, we don't just shine shoes. Everyone takes the number in line and waits for hot pot.

Soon other restaurants also learned this method, so you can see that many shops have such an automatic shoe polisher at the door.

However, Haidilao soon changed its methods, such as electronic entertainment facilities, cameras, cotton candy machines, nail art ...

Its tricks are always ahead, providing free services for customers waiting for seats to pass the time.

when I entered the store and sat on the table, the waiter was even more attentive. Hand rubber bands to girls with long hair; Find glasses cloth for people who wear glasses; Not to mention that after the children arrive at the store, someone will help with the children ... < P > In this way, Haidilao gradually became famous for its service, and more and more people went to Haidilao to eat hot pot. The purpose is simple: to enjoy the service.

once the company invited a etiquette teacher from Beijing to give us training. After the class, ask the teacher what special food he wants to eat.

The teacher seems to have thought about it for a long time and said without hesitation, "Fishing in the sea! I just want to come to their headquarters to enjoy the service. "

The waiters in Haidilao are sincere and enthusiastic. It is said that the initiative of employees comes from very good treatment.

They rent high-end residential areas as staff dormitories, and they also have special logistics to help employees cook and wash clothes.

Because most employees come from surrounding towns and villages, in order to solve the problem of children's difficulty in studying, Zhang Yong established the only boarding school in the town in 2111, employing elite teachers, so that children of employees can attend school for free.

up to now, this school has become a famous "aristocratic school" in the local area, and its teaching quality is among the best.

Later, Haidilao's business grew bigger and bigger, and it developed abroad. The nationality of Zhang Yong's husband and wife changed to Singaporean, but the location of the headquarters remained unchanged, and it was still in Simian Community.

because the old shop is located in a residential area, parking and sewage discharge have become a big problem.

After many negotiations with residents, Haidilao moved to Xuhai Times Square, a comprehensive commercial plaza they invested in. But the address and exterior decoration of the old shop have been preserved.

In recent years, due to the prevalence of Tik Tok, the high-end version service of Haidilao has been repeatedly mentioned.

As a local, going to Haidilao for dinner is for hygiene and service, and the taste is actually not very good.

However, his humanized service has always been well-known. Only when he went to other places did he know that after Haidilao came out of the province, the taste of bottom materials was actually more than that of local people. Privately, I guess it may be the reform they made in order to blend in with the local area.

This is part of the story about the origin and development of Haidilao that I know circulating in local streets and lanes.

It should also be a good thing that they will implement rectification measures this time. After all, if the capital expands too fast, some things will be ignored and reduced. It is in everyone's interest to be a conscientious enterprise.
