More than 80 merchants, the vast majority operate at a loss, and some even post transfer announcements. Why is Qixi Mall, located in Ximenjin Street, one of the most prosperous commercial streets in Tongzhou District, so deserted? Why is the physical store business so difficult to do? Why do many businesses in Qixi Mall sublet in tears?

Recently, the reporter conducted an in-depth investigation and interviewed the merchants operating in Qixi Mall to understand the story behind it.

Go to the sea to do business, choose a shopping mall, and look forward to a prosperous business.

Mr. Liu, 38 years old, is a working class, and has been working for others before. When people reach middle age, they plan to start their own business, so they plan to invest in a shop of their own with their savings for many years. After many investigations, I chose a crayfish restaurant as a franchisee. The franchise contract was signed on February 20 16.

After signing the contract, Mr. Liu began to look for suitable shops in Chaoyang and Xicheng. Until May this year, he saw the investment advertisement of Qixi Mall. During the negotiation, the merchants of Qixi Mall told Mr. Liu that they would build a special shopping mall with the theme of marriage and love, which would integrate a variety of entertainment and attract young people's consumption. After the investment is completed, the shopping center will be located in KTV, Jay Chou Film Cafe, etc., which is very consistent with the positioning of consumers in the restaurant operated by Mr. Liu.

After several negotiations and careful consideration, Mr. Liu signed a lease contract with Qixi Trading Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Qixi Mall. The lease term of the contract is 3 years, and 3 months' rent and 3 months' deposit have been paid, totaling more than 400,000 yuan. Mr. Liu, who signed the contract, is looking forward to the opening of his new store.

After many twists and turns, I finally settled in, only to find that I did not meet my promise.

In July this year, the staff of Qixi Mall told Mr. Liu that the mall would definitely open on July 20. Urge merchants to prepare materials. It is said that teacher Liu prepared tens of thousands of materials at once. After the materials were fully prepared, Qixi Mall informed the merchants that the mall could not open on time. It has been postponed until the official opening of the mall on August 20. At this time, most of the materials that Mr. Liu was going to open before could not be used normally. "Most of the things I bought were ingredients, and I couldn't open them on time, resulting in tens of thousands of dollars wasted!" Mr. Liu told reporters.

On the opening day, all the guests were relatives and friends. The opening income is more than 30 thousand, and the cost is 50 thousand. After checking in, Mr. Liu found that the promise given by Qixi Mall had not been fulfilled. "First of all, the mall promised to conduct a seven-day publicity at the beginning of its opening, but the publicity only lasted 1 day. Secondly, the mall promised to open the subway entrance of the mall by September at the latest, but it has not been opened. Moreover, the composition of merchants in shopping malls is completely inconsistent with the theme of marriage and love. Due to the low passenger flow, Mr. Liu's business has been very bleak.

The shop is seriously leaking rain and can't operate normally at all.

After the opening, Mr. Liu faced a more headache, and the store leaked water seriously. "More than half of the tables and chairs were soaked by the water leaking from upstairs and could not operate normally." Mr. Liu said. Since August, there has been water leakage in shops. Mr. Liu found the management of Qixi Mall to reflect the problem, but the problem has never been solved.

What makes Mr. Liu more headache is that no customers patronize his restaurant at all. According to Mr. Liu, he * * employs six employees, with a daily salary of 1000 yuan, and he also has to pay 100 yuan for employee accommodation. Shops have to pay rent, property management fees, air conditioning fees and other expenses every day, totaling more than 2,000 yuan. I am burdened with various expenses such as rent every day, but I have almost no income and have been operating at a loss.

Shops leak.

At the beginning of this year 10, Mr. Liu chose to close the store because he had been operating at a loss. From opening the store to closing it, Mr. Liu invested 1 10,000 yuan, which not only lost his savings for many years, but also owed more than 400,000 yuan. "There is no way, I can only choose to go back to work. The mall and I discussed reopening, but I have no money to reopen. Moreover, business has been bad, and it has also lost money. " Mr. Liu said.

Although it has been closed, Mr. Liu's troubles are far from over. According to the contract, Mr. Liu's lease term is three years. During the contract maintenance period, Mr. Liu must pay the house rent and various management fees on time.

Explore Tanabata Mall again, and 80% of the merchants are closed, and the business is deserted.

In order to understand the operation of Qixi Mall, our reporter came to Qixi Mall on the basement of Ximenjin Street in Tongzhou again on the evening of 65438+February 1 1. At 7 o'clock in the evening, during the rush hour, we crossed the underground passage from Yonghui Supermarket with huge passenger flow to the west and entered the category of Qixi Mall.

Not many businesses are open for business, and many shops have closed. "Some shops close at seven o'clock and no guests come." A merchant told reporters, "Our family will be closed for a while."

The interior of the mall is very deserted.

The reporter noticed that some shops in Qixi Mall have posted "sublet" notices. In the open mobile phone sales point and jewelry sales point, there are notes saying "If you need to buy, please contact the owner by phone". During the reporter's stay from 20: 00 to 2: 00/kloc-0: 00, this note was rarely visited.

The reporter walked into a restaurant at random to learn about the business situation. "Not counting you two, there are five people in the shop today." Is it particularly deserted today? The reporter asked the clerk. "No, from 1 1. Basically every day, there is no way, I can only pay rent and water. "

Transfer announcement issued by the merchant on the website

In the process of shopping, many shopkeepers expressed "dissatisfaction" with the property side of the shopping mall. "When we first opened, the property said that we would engage in activities, and our merchants basically participated. When it comes to double 1 1, many people are reluctant to participate. " Some shopkeepers said that there was a "trust crisis" between them and the owners. "If the property is still doing activities this Christmas, our store won't have to participate." Near Christmas, Qixi Mall has also made a very beautiful activity in line with the festive atmosphere, and the Christmas activity plan of the mall has not yet been sent to the merchants.

It shows that the elevator entrance of the subway is blocked.

"Only when I started to engage in activities, I had customers, and I earned hundreds of dollars that week." The merchant said: "Now, it has always been a loss, which makes the pit miserable."
