#65 - Chapter 65 is on sale nationwide, shocking!
Xia Qingmo was a local and went home on weekends.
Saturday.
Chen Hao got up early in the morning.
He went straight to the city center.
With a steamed bun in one hand and soy milk in the other, he squatted on the side of the road.
Across the street.
He waited and waited.
Finally, it arrived!
Nine o'clock.
Whirr...
The roller shutter door was pulled up.
In the next moment, franchised stores with nationally unified designs all opened on the same day.
Snap!
After finishing the steamed bun and soy milk.
Chen Hao lit a Zhonghua cigarette and continued to squat there.
9:15.
The first customer entered the store.
When the customer walked out of the store with a brand new SP4, eagerly using it on the street, it immediately attracted a lot of attention.
"What is this? I've never seen it before!"
"Where did you buy it?"
"There's a store on the east side of the street called Chuàngshìjì."
"I've seen it! Someone in Jinling is selling it, but supply can't meet demand!"
One person told ten.
Ten told a hundred.
10:30.
The exclusive store was crowded with people.
11:00.
Two employees had to be assigned to maintain order outside because the queue was dozens of meters long!
Shanghai was more prosperous than Jinling, and the people were wealthier.
Their spending power was stronger!
"It's done."
Chen Hao took out his phone: "Ya-jie, arrange for our guests to visit the exclusive store, and then explain the situation—we'll go to the assembly plant tomorrow."
He didn't linger any longer.
The overall situation was set!
He got into the Benz and made another call: "Director Dou, didn't you say last time that you wanted to treat me to a meal?"
"When are you free?"
Dou Weiping was very excited.
"Is noon today okay?"
"No problem!"
Dou Weiping was overjoyed and immediately asked his wife to buy groceries.
...
Shangri-La Hotel.
Wilson had arrived a day early.
In fact.
The time Chen Hao had set was very generous, and most of them had already arrived in Shanghai yesterday.
Just now, Wilson received a call from someone claiming to be Chen Hao's assistant, who sent someone to pick him up for a visit.
A visit?
This was a good thing!
The more he understood in advance, the better he could discuss cooperation later.
Walking out of the hotel, a taxi was waiting, carrying him away with a whoosh.
Not long after.
The taxi stopped in front of the exclusive store in the city center.
"My God!"
Wilson almost collapsed.
People!
It was all people!
The queue stretched hundreds of meters!
Of course, he didn't know that Chen Hao postponed the release of SP4 not only for cultural output, to allow time for MV implantation.
There was an even more important purpose.
SP4 was not cheap.
Given China's current consumption level, only a minority could afford it.
The first day of sales would have the most customers.
As time went on, sales would drop significantly, maintaining a certain range.
He wanted to use the incredibly amazing traffic on the first day of sales to shock 'partners'.
China was very poor, right?
It could sell so well even in China.
What about developed countries?
It would definitely sell like crazy!
This kind of shock would bring great benefits to subsequent negotiations.
Of course.
Chen Hao's methods were far more than this.
One...
Two...
Three...
More taxis stopped, and one representative after another got out of the car.
Among them.
Some were even familiar with each other.
For example, the representatives of Walmart and Costco, who were competitors.
More than them?
North America, Europe, Japan, South Korea, the Middle East.
As many as one or two hundred people!
Although each party didn't necessarily come with only one person, it was possible that there were several people... there were also dozens of companies!
Wilson's heart sank.
Thinking of the previous call, when he proposed exclusive authorization, the other party refused without hesitation.
So...
With the popularity shown by SP4, not only could he not get exclusive authorization.
Even the agency rights had to be competed for!
The representatives of major companies were shocked by the grand scene of the queue.
At first.
They were still wondering if it was a setup.
But...
One group of people entered the store.
One group of people left.
The more SP4s were sold, the longer the queue became!
Two o'clock in the afternoon.
Representatives from all parties gathered in a hotel conference hall.
Meng Ya stood on the stage.
She grew up in Hong Kong and could speak fluent English: "Ladies and gentlemen, I believe that after the on-site visit, you all have a general understanding of the SP4 market."
"Next, are the bidding rules for this agency right."
The representatives of all parties felt a stagnation in their hearts.
Sure enough!
It wasn't that if you came, you would be given the agency right.
It had to be bid for!
"I understand your feelings."
Meng Ya smiled slightly: "But the ultimate purpose of bidding is to protect the rights and interests of the agents, isn't it?"
"If the number of agents is not limited, there will definitely be malicious price competition."
"For us, there is no loss, anyway, the ex-factory price will not decrease."
"In the end, it is the agents who make less money!"
When the representatives of all parties heard this, it was indeed the truth.
Monopoly can maximize profits.
If there are fewer agents, they can also greet each other and set a fixed price that will never be reduced.
But once there are too many agents...
There will inevitably be a price war!
"After the decision of our company's senior management."
Meng Ya took a deep breath: "Determine the number of agents according to the population!"
North America, three agents.
Europe, four.
Middle East, three.
Japan and South Korea each have one.
How to bid?
Very simple.
Only look at two data: one is the first batch of purchase volume, and the other is the proportion of prepaid deposit.
"That's all for today."
Meng Ya smiled: "I know this is a difficult decision, so today is left for everyone to discuss with their respective superiors."
"Tomorrow, I will send someone to pick you up and go to our assembly plant."
By visiting the assembly plant, you can have a better understanding of SP4's production capacity and quality.
Then...
Formal bidding!
...
Meng Ya was responsible for meeting with the representatives of all parties.
Chen Hao would not waste his time on boring things.
He went to Dou Weiping's house for a free meal.
As for Xia Qingyan...
Very busy!
Very busy!
CEO's office.
She almost constantly received real-time data.
SP4 was released nationwide!
In fact, she didn't have to be so busy, the really busy time was the previous period.
Mainly because she required all franchised stores across the country to report every hour in order to obtain immediate data.
Although the store in Jinling had already been confirmed to be selling like crazy.
Seeing the leopard through a tube, one can see a glimpse.
But she was still a little worried.
Leaving Shanghai Jiaotong University and joining Hanteng Capital.
This was her first project.
Only allowed to win, not allowed to lose!
Must slap that old guy in the face!
"Henan data, as of 5 pm, the comprehensive sales of provincial and municipal franchisees are 6375 units!"
"Guangdong as of 5 pm, total sales of 9322 units!"
"Yunnan as of 5 pm, total sales of 4419 units!"
The population of each province is different, and the degree of wealth is different.
There is a difference in sales.
Five o'clock in the afternoon.
Data from each province, autonomous region, and municipality came out.
Total sales exceeded 180,000 units!
The cost per unit is 400 yuan.
The ex-factory price is 2,000 yuan.
The profit is...
Nearly 300 million!
It can be certain that each franchised store will be busy until very late, so the total profit for this day will be at least 400 million!
What is the concept of 400 million in profit a day?
Even if there was an early estimate, Xia Qingyan's hands still trembled when she saw the data with her own eyes.
In my mind.
A very young, even somewhat green face appeared.
