Chapter 236 Observation
"What do you want to eat?"
The waiter wore a uniform with red and yellow as the main colors, smiling and asked Evan what he wanted.
"What are some of them? Can you briefly introduce them?" Evan looked like he was here for the first time.
"Of course!" The waiter pointed to the menu posted on the counter: "As you can see, McDonald's is a fast restaurant that only provides food that can be quickly provided. The staple food is mainly burgers, served with snacks such as French fries, and of course, soda drinks."
“There are the following types of hamburgers…”
“If you don’t know how to choose, I suggest you try the package…”
The waiter was extremely patient and did not urge him because Evan might slow down the pace of ordering. Of course, this is also because it is only half a morning now, not the dining time, there are not many customers in the store, so the waiter can calmly answer questions and answer questions to customers.
"So that's the case, give me a set meal, well, just set meal B." Evan took out a bill from his pocket.
"Are you taking it out or eating it at our store?"
“Eat in the store.”
"Okay, a B package." The waiter took the banknotes with both hands and said after making changes: "You wait a moment, it's fine soon."
Less than a minute later, the set ordered by Evan was delivered from the kitchen to the front desk and then to his hands. Evan pretended to be surprised and said, "It's so fast!"
The waiter smiled and replied, "Thank you for your compliment, I wish you a happy meal."
Evan held the tray and found Bob and sat down opposite him.
"Bob, how does it taste?" Evan asked while pouring the tomato sauce on the fries. Bob was empty-handed and he had eaten the burger he had bought at the car window.
Bob looked at the burger in Evan's tray and replied, "It's OK."
Evan noticed his gaze and pushed the tray over, "Can you still eat it? Take it if you can."
Evan is just here to experience the service. Not that he is hungry and Bob doesn't eat it, the burger will be wasted.
Bob was not polite either. He grabbed the burger and removed the packaging and made a big mouthful. Evan put the fries into his mouth one by one, while keeping looking around.
Evan sat for more than ten minutes, and the fries and burgers had been cleaned up, but he had no intention of leaving. During this period, Evan saw that the store received about seven or eight customers, most of whom came in to try it out. Some ate directly in the store like Evan, while others took it out. Evan observed that these customers had no tableware, short waiting time, and ate anytime, and were completely different from other places, and seemed to have a good acceptance.
"It seems that although the expansion time has been earlier, people are still these people. The trend of this service being accepted and gradually becoming popular will naturally not change."
"However, one of the important reasons why fast restaurants have become popular since the 1950s is because of the rapid increase in the number of car ownership in the United States and the improvement of the interstate highway system. These conditions are still incomplete, which will greatly limit the selection of fast restaurant locations."
"But it doesn't matter. I'll choose a location in a big city in the past few years, so that the construction of the logistics system will be easier. Brand building is the key during this period."
After sorting out McDonald's development ideas, Evan wiped his hands with a napkin and prepared to get up and leave.
At this moment, a middle-aged man walked into the restaurant with a group of four young men and women wearing McDonald's uniforms.
The waiter at the front desk ordering office saw the middle-aged man and greeted respectfully: "Good morning, Mr. Morris."
Then he looked at the four people behind Morris, "Are these interns in this group?"
Morris, who was mentioned by the waiter, was the older brother of the MacDonald brothers. In McDonald's, he was the deputy general manager responsible for employee training and new store inspections. He is currently one of the giants of McDonald's. His younger brother Richard is responsible for the construction of the kitchen system and the development of new products, while Charlie Bell, who was assigned by Evan, was responsible for administrative management and finance.
The Santa Monica store is the starting point for McDonald's official expansion, and its importance is self-evident, so Morris personally led the interns.
Evan watched Morris give pre-job lectures to the interns standing in a row from afar. He was not ready to show up, but walked quietly towards the door.
Morris, who was talking, accidentally saw their backs. He always felt that one of them looked familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
Evan and Bob came to the parking lot and found the car.
"I'll drive back." Evan, who suddenly wanted to drive, walked to the side of the driver's seat. Of course, Bob had no objection and took out the car key and threw it to Evan.
Evan received the key, opened the door and got into the car, fastened his seat belt, and then inserted the key. After Bob, who was in the passenger seat, was also prepared for safety, he twisted the key, the engine started, and the car emitted a slight vibration and unnegligible noise.
Evan held the steering wheel with both hands, carefully observed the front and left and right sides. After confirming that there was no one or two cars, he controlled the car and drove out of the parking space slowly.
When the car moved less than half of its seat, Evan suddenly stepped on the brakes. At the same time, a Ford Super De Luxe sedan with the same model as Evan's car parked less than one meter in front of him.
The two sides almost collided.
Evan poked out of the car window and looked at the other party. When he was about to teach a lesson, he swallowed the words he had already said.
I saw two beautiful ladies sitting in the front row of the Ford, with Evan's face very familiar.
Evan sighed, and then returned his car to the parking space first, untied his seat belt, got out of the car, and walked towards the Ford, which had not been moving.
The two of them had come to their senses, but for some reason they were still sitting in their original position. When they saw Evan coming to their car, they sat in the passenger seat, and the pale-faced lady reluctantly greeted her with a smile, "Hi, Evan, it's a coincidence to see you here."
Evan responded with a dark face: "Good morning, Miss Elizabeth."
"I don't like this coincidence at all."
Then he looked at the female driver: "Don't you say anything? Linda, or that's how you greeted him just now."
Linda and Elizabeth looked at each other, then quietly lowered their heads: "Sorry, Evan, it's my driving skills that are not up to standard."
When Evan heard this, he raised his eyebrows and became even more angry, "Do you dare to go on the road if you don't have good skills?"
"Forget it, you park your car first, let's find a place to have a good chat."
Evan's words were full of commands, but Linda and Elizabeth had to obey.
A few minutes later, some corner of McDonald's restaurant.
Linda and Elizabeth sat opposite Evan with great obedience and were scolded by him.
