Her Kindergarten is Full of Villainous Students-Chapter 147
The news about Starry Sky Kindergarten opening a new branch in the new district had just been confirmed.
Local people immediately started buying houses in the new district.
When buying a house, the first priority was to discuss enrollment spots, then discounts.
The district leaders here had reserved 200 spots, saying they would cooperate with real estate developers.
As soon as someone showed interest in buying, the sales staff became excited.
They first promoted a 160-square-meter large flat.
The contract explicitly mentioned a spot at Starry Sky Kindergarten.
After the purchase, both parties were quite pleased.
The buyer felt that the apartment was excellent in terms of layout and location.
The seller was happy too.
Currently, housing prices across the country had started to plummet.
A strange phenomenon occurred: the more expensive the houses, the more people bought; the cheaper they became, the less people bought.
The new district was initially priced as a high-end neighborhood.
The opening price was 20,000 yuan per square meter.
Now it had dropped to 14,000, with fully furnished interiors ready for immediate occupancy.
However, if no one bought, the prices would have to drop further.
This was a constant worry for both the developers and the new district leaders.
Now, as soon as the news was out, smart people came to buy houses.
As some did this, others followed suit.
But few were as decisive as the first buyer; most just came to inquire.
At first, the staff confidently said there would be spots available.
But buying a house is not a simple decision for any family.
They hesitated, and when they came back to ask again, the staff could no longer guarantee spots.
After allocating 10 spots through house purchases, the leadership cut it off.
This made the sales staff somewhat anxious.
How could they restrict spots when so many people were finally buying houses?
This was a golden opportunity that doesn't come often.
But once the leaders spoke, the sales staff didn't dare say they had spots anymore.
So every time they were asked, they gave vague answers.
Seeing this, others suspected something fishy and became even more hesitant to buy.
Those who wanted to buy but weren't sure about getting a spot kept obsessing over Starry Sky Kindergarten's moves.
The more this group focused on the kindergarten, the more they realized how powerful Starry Sky Kindergarten was.
They had professors teaching calculus. This kind of lineup was rare even in middle schools, let alone kindergartens.
Not to mention various art classes, where teachers came from the top of their respective fields.
Even if they didn't understand the industry well, the difference was glaringly obvious.
Teachers from other art schools weren't even qualified to be assistants here.
Moreover, they had nurtured many excellent students. For instance, the well-known Mu Zhixing, who participated in an art exhibition in the United States.
He was considered a rising star in the industry, and because of Mu Zhixing, the art circle had to accept Qi Zhong.
Both master and apprentice were geniuses, and Qi Zhong's past was brought up again. Many people gave him positive evaluations.
Many people wanted to learn from Qi Zhong.
But Qi Zhong didn't need much money, and his salary at Starry Sky Kindergarten was quite high.
Plus, various kindergartens provided mineral pigments for free use, so he didn't need to teach extra classes elsewhere for additional income.
To study under him, entering Starry Sky Kindergarten was the best choice!
There were also street dance teachers, classical dance teachers, and singing teachers. Not just children, even adults wanted to learn from them when they appeared.
People were willing to pay high tuition fees, but they only charged the kindergarten's monthly fee of 1,600 yuan.
Only pop-up stores offered a slight taste of their teaching.
But the pop-up stores were too popular. Those who had been there wanted to come back, but there was no exclusive channel for returning customers. They had to compete with 250,000 people for tickets simultaneously.
It was frustrating. The more people learned about it, the more they felt that 1,600 yuan was incredibly cheap, almost like charity.
Later, Starry Sky Kindergarten opened a luxury class with a monthly fee of 20,000 yuan, and spots were immediately filled.
Those who had previously been admitted through interviews were all proud. The classes they attended were worth 20,000 yuan.
The 1,600 yuan was really a benefit for families.
Starry Sky Kindergarten's reputation was now soaring.
Meanwhile, Noble Kindergarten frequently made poor decisions, showing signs of decline.
Noble Kindergarten used to have a higher status than Starry Sky Kindergarten, but now it was falling behind.
If this new district could really have Starry Sky Kindergarten move in, it would instantly become a holy land in the hearts of young mothers.
In ancient times, there was a story about Mencius's mother moving three times for better education.
The learning environment is very important for children.
The more parents thought about it, the more restless they became.
After a few days, some parents who already had school district houses elsewhere still wanted to buy one here. As long as they could get a spot, they would find a way to pay any price. It's all for the children!
The sales staff felt like they were sitting on hot coals.
Now people were coming with money to buy houses.
This feeling was like returning to the peak of the housing market five years ago.
They knocked on the manager's door, but the manager had a tearful face, saying, "Don't mention it, there are no spots at all!"
These spots were only available through cooperation with the government.
But now the officials there were tightly controlling the spots and not releasing any. Nobody could do anything about it.
Even the manager was a bit panicked.
He was a bit more perceptive than the average salesperson.
With so many people wanting kindergarten spots, this must be a good thing.
He even regretted not reserving one for himself earlier when they were available.
Now, forget about customers, even he didn't have one.
The sales staff had to regretfully convey this news to the house buyers.
They thought this deal would surely fall through, but surprisingly, the buyer still purchased a unit.
They just said it was fine as long as Starry Sky Kindergarten was nearby.
Although they didn't get a guaranteed spot, living in the area would allow their child to interview.
The new district was quite far from the old one, and no parent was willing to drive back and forth for an hour to drop off and pick up their child. It would be too tiring for the kids.
This works too? The sales staff were stunned.
Starry Sky Kindergarten's status rose sharply again in the minds of the sales team.
Many people also left comments on live streams or account pages, asking if the new district branch was real.
The popularity of Starry Sky Kindergarten in this city was simply too high.
Since interviews can be risky, securing a spot in a wealthy class early on is a viable option.
Not everyone these days is without money.
The developer went directly to the functional department to inquire about available spots.
Now even the big boss of the developer has heard about it.
They're hoping more spots will be released, at least to keep some big clients on board.
But the government department just won't release any more spots.
An employee familiar with the developer said, "Don't even mention these spots! It's not that I won't give them, there really aren't any left now."
He didn't consider it a good thing from the beginning.
After letting go of 10 spots for the developer to use, others came flooding in.
Many big businesses that had initially rejected the new district suddenly changed their tune, saying they could consider moving in after all.
These were shopping malls, hospitals, large fruit and vegetable supermarkets, and chain brands.
The new district's staff had approached them before but were ruthlessly rejected.
They needed to conduct on-site inspections, even if the new district offered some preferential policies.
Once operations begin, the maintenance costs would also be substantial.
They would need to hire a large number of staff.
If it didn't take off, they'd lose money.
So they were all very cautious.
They had already refused, but unexpectedly, because of the kindergarten spots, they made a U-turn and said they could move in. They just required a certain number of spots.
If it were just one or two saying this, it would be fine. 𝗳r𝐞ew𝚎bn𝚘ve𝚕.c𝗼𝗺
Now all the businesses had this demand.
The functional staff loosened up once and gave out 10 spots.
Later they gave 5, then 3, and half the spots were already used up.
But the businesses they attracted were high-end ones that made the leaders beam with joy.
They actually agreed because of the kindergarten spots.
Now the few spots in hand were treated like precious gems.
If negotiations weren't going well, a little temptation with spots might still work.
The new district leaders were fired up, feeling that at this rate, the new district would soon prosper.
Some of the functional department staff regretted it, thinking if they had known these spots would be so useful, they should have asked Starry Sky Kindergarten for 300 instead.
What good were 200 spots?
That's what they thought, and that's what they tried to do.
But they were mercilessly rejected by Starry Sky Kindergarten.
The previous 200 spots were already enough for 7 classes.
They still needed to conduct normal admissions, plus some wealthy classes and special feature classes.
Starry Sky Kindergarten had built its current reputation bit by bit.
They absolutely couldn't become like Noble Kindergarten.
The functional department was convinced by Shen Wei's reasons.
However, when it came to giving out spots in the future, they would have to be even more stringent in their selection.
But even so, Starry Sky Kindergarten's spots were all taken!
A few units wanted to hold onto some, but couldn't!
Starry Sky Kindergarten was the ultimate kindergarten in the hearts of young mothers.
But in others' minds, it was just a kindergarten with a slightly bigger reputation.
However, after this episode, everyone knew that inviting Starry Sky Kindergarten to settle in was the most correct decision the new district had made.
The district leaders reciprocated by specially allocating a 10,000 square meter plot of land next door.
They gifted it to Starry Sky Kindergarten for free, as a token of gratitude.
