Yesterday morning, in 2008, the management rights of 45 catering stalls in Ditan Spring Festival Temple Fair were auctioned. One stall in the best location was reelected by two-time bidding champions for 172,000 yuan, up more than 50,000 yuan over the previous year. This year, the overall price and the total turnover have risen sharply compared with last year, and many successful bidders said that the things they sold will not increase in price.
"60 thousand!" As soon as the auctioneer quoted the starting price of 15 thousand, a man directly quoted 60 thousand. And his voice just fell, and a merchant behind him shouted a high price of 120,000.
This is the auction site in ditan temple fair, where more than 100 merchants are competing for 45 food stalls at the Temple Fair next year.
When the first booth started shooting, a merchant always held the auction number and vowed not to stop. After more than 20 struggles, he finally took the booth into his arms.
Each booth has experienced at least 10 struggles, so that the auctioneer has to "brake" many times to remind merchants to carefully calculate their own costs and profits.
The competition for booth No.10, which is recognized as the best location, became fierce. Finally, it was won by Gu Shengli, a two-time bid winner from Inner Mongolia, and the price soared from 120,000 yuan in the previous session to 172,000 yuan. He and his companions also won two other booths with good positions at high prices.
At about 10 o’clock, all 45 food stalls were auctioned, and the prices far exceeded the starting price of 15,000 yuan. Zhang Jinsong, spokesman of Dongcheng District Garden Bureau, said that this year’s transaction price has risen sharply compared with last year, which may be related to the price increase this year. In addition, it also shows that people are very optimistic about the market conditions of traditional festivals.
Today, 467 bidders will bid for the right to operate 300 department stores.
-The king of dialogue
"Barbecue does not increase in price, making money depends on popularity."
Gu Shengli, the standard king, said that this Spring Festival business should be better than last year.
Yesterday, at the auction site, Gu Shengli, the "king of kebabs", and his companions were always quiet. Even at the critical moment when the audience was boiling, he just slowly raised the number plate, which caused a staggering sound in the audience. After winning three sky-high booths, he had a dialogue with reporters.
