“Who knows what he was thinking, maybe he was drawn here by the female trainers in our store’s Kuaiyin videos.”
“He’s not that young anymore, and he doesn’t properly weigh his own value. Touching a woman like Sun Xinyi would require smashing tens or even hundreds of thousands; you can’t even think about it without spending that much.”
Yu Lili voiced her disdain with a sneer.
Nowadays, almost all businesses have their own short video accounts; Bolli Fitness Center has two on Kuaiyin, one is dedicated to posting videos of seductive female trainers and members to attract male customers, while the other posts videos of handsome and muscular male trainers to draw in female clients.
This marketing strategy was quite effective, and naturally, visitors would surge every weekend.
“Lingling, help me sign up for an annual membership.”
Just as the two finished their banter, Sun Xinyi strode confidently over to the bar.
“Huh?”
“An annual membership?”
Zhou Ling was shocked; she had subconsciously prepared for the delivery guy to leave dejectedly.
But now, the script wasn’t following the plot she and Yu Lili had predicted.
“No way, are you actually signing up for an annual membership?”
Yu Lili was also stunned; she had intended to trap Sun Xinyi, but it turned out she was just handing her money.
A commission for an annual membership was 15%, which meant she just gifted Sun Xinyi nearly six hundred bucks; it was more painful than losing the money herself.
“Lingling, after signing up, can you help me bring it to the lounge? Thanks a lot.”
Sun Xinyi didn’t pay any attention to Yu Lili; she actually had an idea of why Yu Lili let her attend to Yang Hao. She guessed that the customer must not have much spending power; otherwise, Yu Lili wouldn’t have kindly referred him to her.
However, her philosophy was not to give up on any customer. Since he had come into the fitness center, it indicated that there was a willingness to spend, so Sun Xinyi still took her reception duties very seriously.
And it turned out that she reaped an unexpected reward.
“Yang, right this way, please. Let’s go to the lounge and sign the contract.”
Sun Xinyi then led Yang Hao into the adjacent lounge, which featured a tea station and a coffee machine, functioning as a beverage area.
“Yang, would you like something to drink?”
“I’ll have tea.”
Yang Hao sat down beside the tea station. When he used to be a boss, his office also had a tea station. Although he was only superficially familiar with the so-called tea ceremony, he found the process of brewing and savoring tea quite refining.
Especially as he grew older, he preferred this feeling even more.
Sun Xinyi skillfully brewed a pot of tea for Yang Hao and then poured him half a cup.
“Yang, let’s first add each other on Weixun. Then I’ll send you a diet plan. You should follow this diet daily and exercise with me. Since you have a large base weight, losing twenty pounds in the first month shouldn’t be a problem, but it will slow down after that.”
Sun Xinyi, a graduate of Jiangcheng Sports Institute, had been working part-time as a fitness trainer during her college years. After graduation, not finding a suitable job, she became a full-time fitness trainer. She had some insights about weight loss.
Yang Hao nodded slightly. His goal was to lose 41 pounds, which obviously wasn’t a task that could be achieved in the short term.
The two added each other on Weixun, and then Sun Xinyi handed Yang Hao two contracts, one for the membership card and one for personal training sessions.
Yang Hao glanced over them. They were standard contracts without any traps.
“Xinyi, the membership card is ready.”
At this moment, Zhou Ling walked into the lounge, holding a freshly processed membership card.
“Sorry Lingling, I forgot to tell you, add another thirty-five personal training sessions to the membership card.”
Sun Xinyi said with a smile.
“Huh?”
“`
“Thirty-five personal training sessions?”
Zhou Ling’s mouth hung open, her face displaying an expression of surprise as her gaze inadvertently fell upon Yang Hao, the robustly built man who was currently drinking tea with an air of nonchalance.
How come he suddenly looks more handsome?
Could this be the power of cash?
Muttering to herself, Zhou Ling quickly agreed and hurried back to the reception desk.
“Lili, that delivery guy actually bought thirty private lessons!”
Although Sun Xinyi mentioned thirty-five sessions, Zhou Ling knew it was because purchasing a large number of lessons came with an extra five sessions for free.
“Thirty personal training sessions?”
“Lingling, you must have heard wrong!”
Yu Lili was utterly shocked, her already somewhat glum mood turning even sulkier.
A commission from a yearly membership was only about six hundred or so, but thirty private lessons amounted to nine thousand total, which, even at the lowest commission rate, would be over thirteen hundred.
Today was the last day of February, and when Yu Lili had checked Sun Xinyi’s performance for the month in the morning, including this nine thousand, she had sold over thirty thousand in private lessons. Thirty thousand was precisely the threshold between a 15% and 20% commission.
Which meant that after this sale, her commission rate would jump to the 20% level.
Not only would she earn eighteen hundred from this single transaction, but she would also gain an extra 5% on the previous twenty thousand or more. After calculating, these nine thousand in personal training would result in over three thousand in income for her, plus the commission from the yearly membership, that’s nearly four thousand!
After working out the value of this transaction, Yu Lili was completely thrown off.
She glanced into the rest area through the floor-to-ceiling glass, where the delivery guy was leisurely sipping his tea.
A wave of speechlessness washed over Yu Lili, who internally cursed: Are you freaking kidding me? A delivery guy spending 12888 on a gym membership and personal training sessions; did he deliver his brains out too??
“I can’t believe delivery guys these days are so rich.”
“Lili, you might have remembered wrong. That guy doesn’t quite look like a delivery person, he rather has the air of a boss about him.”
Zhou Ling placed the newly activated membership card on the card reader and expertly modified the data in the computer system, adding the thirty-five sessions into it.
From now on, Yang Hao could simply swipe his card or provide his phone number when he came for his personal training.
“I didn’t remember wrong, and he admitted his identity as well.”
Yu Lili shook her head, then whispered, “Maybe Sun Xinyi promised him something privately, which is why that delivery guy willingly handed over two months’ worth of his salary!”
“Uh, that might be possible.”
Zhou Ling didn’t really want to agree with this conjecture. The scenario where female fitness instructors struck PY deals with male members to sell sessions wasn’t new in the fitness circle.
But Sun Xinyi certainly wasn’t that type of person, since a man pursuing Yu Lili had bought fifty sessions in a single go to impress her, and Sun Xinyi hadn’t given him any special treatment, treating him just like any other member.
So sacrificing herself for thirty sessions seemed unlikely.
“I’ll go and deliver his card, and let him make the payment. Maybe this delivery guy is just acting on impulse, and he’ll back out when it gets serious.”
Feeling somewhat unwilling to let go, Yu Lili clung to a last sliver of hope as she carried the membership card and the bar’s dedicated payment QR code towards the rest area.
“Big brother, your card is ready.”
“Please scan this code, the total comes to 12888 yuan.”
As Yu Lili handed over the membership card, she also presented the in-store payment QR code.
“Thank you.”
Yang Hao accepted the membership card and then calmly took out his phone to scan the code for payment, without the slightest hesitation, as though he was spending one yuan instead of more than ten thousand.
Suddenly, Yu Lili felt a bit dazed and even thought that Yang seemed quite handsome scanning the code!
