Paul has worked in an insurance company and his eloquence is above the standard.

He showed off his attitude of persuading customers to take out insurance and introduced Evan their entrepreneurial projects passionately.

Half an hour later, Evan threw the information prepared by Colin and the others onto the coffee table, and asked in a plain tone: "So, Colin, Paul, your plan is to open a motel chain?"

Colin said: "That's right!"

Evan glanced at the elder brother and said, "Your information says that a motel is not expensive. You guys should have enough start-up funds. Why do you still need my investment?"

Paul opened his mouth to speak, but Colin spoke first before him. Paul had to roll his eyes secretly. Didn’t he agree that I would introduce the project?

"We have started capital, but it's not enough for our plan," Colin said.

"Just Paul has just introduced the current status of the motel and the prospects we speculated. I wonder, Evan, do you agree with this?"

Evan nodded slightly after thinking about it.

"Very good, then we can continue to talk." Colin said: "The business conditions of the motel have a lot to do with the location selection, and there are some good location selection. Now is the stage where the motel is just beginning to develop, so I want to enter and enter the venue as fast as possible."

"So, I need a certain scale of funds to seize the initiative."

"Well, okay, it seems you have confidence in it." Evan looked at Colin leisurely and said, "But I have a few questions here, and I will decide whether to invest according to your answer."

Colin and Paul looked at each other, and then Colin made a gesture of invitation.

"The first question is that the emergence of motels in your information is related to the general ownership of cars and the habit of driving out. I agree with this view. However, you also know that the air transportation industry has developed rapidly recently, and with the original trains, how much impact do you think these transportation vehicles have on car travel? You judge that the automobile industry will continue to grow. If the facts are contrary to this view, how much impact will it have on the motel industry?"

Paul breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Evan's question, because it was not difficult to answer.

It seems that Evan, the younger brother, didn't want to make things difficult for his brother.

Colin thought for a moment and replied: "I think neither train or aircraft can substantially shake the status of cars, because both of them are more suitable for long-distance and long-distance travel, and they are the competitors."

"As for the automobile industry no longer grows, and when it comes to implementation, this situation will only occur when cars have become fully popular or a new generation of transportation that completely replaces cars. If it is the former, motels will naturally not be affected at all, and the latter may have the motel industry disappear... Of course, I can't imagine any transportation that can replace cars."

After listening to Colin's answer, Evan nodded slightly, without commenting, but asked the next question directly.

"The second question is, if you want to enter the completely unfamiliar field of motels on a large scale, how can you ensure that the store you choose is suitable for? "

"This question has been asked me." Colin touched his nose unconfidently. "Coin coincidentally, when he proposed this plan, my partner also asked this question. After some discussion, we decided to learn from our peers and future competitors."

"My partners have three, the other two are John Moffat and Luce Freeman. The reason why they didn't come together is that the negotiations do not require so many people, and more importantly, they have other important things."

Evan cast a curious look and asked, "Did you let them be undercover?"

"Undercover is not considered an undercover!" Colin waved his hand and corrected: "Didn't I say that, they just went to learn."

"The pioneers of the motel industry are the milestone chains that originated from San Luis Obispo (north of Los Angeles). Motel has become the term motel because of them. They are sure to be the most experienced in how to choose a location and how to operate it. John and Luce applied for a job there."

"Of course, we are not just putting our hopes on them. They are responsible for learning, and Paul and I will also conduct field trips. For this reason, we plan to travel across California and nearby states in the next month."

"Actually, during the preparation of the information, I already had some experience. Well, do you need me to talk about it in detail?"

Evan waved his hand, "No need."

"The next question, under what circumstances do you think the number of motels will increase significantly on the current basis?"

This question was also something Colin had thought about, and it was easy to answer: "1. The price of automobiles or the cost of using cars further declined; two. The economic growth and Volkswagen's income level increased; three. The road conditions were further improved. Any of the above three can promote the development of motels."

Evan still did not comment, but nodded slightly, "The last question..."

"Under what circumstances do you think the motel will be eliminated? Of course, there is no need to repeat the new means of transportation, and there is no consideration for war or something like that."

"This..." This question asked Colin's blind spot. They had previously thought about the benefits of motels, and had never thought that it would have the possibility of quitting the stage. For a moment, Colin and Paul fell into deep thought.

Evan was not in a hurry, so they could think clearly before answering.

After a while, Colin shook his head and said to Evan: "I can't think of a possibility that a motel would be completely eliminated."

"The most is the most, that is, the scale of shrinking."

"Traveling and visiting friends are the basic needs of people after their living standards are improved, and it cannot disappear. This means that the industry that provides temporary accommodation will not disappear. In this way, how can motels disappear completely?"

"No! It's still possible..." As soon as Colin finished speaking, his partner Paul raised an objection.

Colin and Evan's eyes suddenly focused on Paul.

"What, tell me..."

Paul was extremely nervous under the eyes of the brothers. After pausing for a moment, he said, "For example, the car speed is increased and the road is convenient, so that people traveling do not need to stop in the middle, and have better accommodation conditions at the destination."

"In this case, the utilization rate of motels will naturally decrease, when it is reduced to the point where it cannot maintain operation..."
