Chapter 73 Amazing sales volume!
There was a queue of tens of meters outside the Apple flagship store in Los Angeles. The reporters who came after hearing the news were shocked!
In the flagship store, there are already dense crowds of people.
"Fuck me, I swear to God, this is the hottest store I have ever seen in my life!!!" A reporter was so stunned when he saw this scene that he blurted out.
Less than half an hour before opening, the manager of the flagship store was making a phone call to the factory.
"Wilson, the flagship store is almost out of stock. Hurry up and ship a thousand Apple-ll personal computers, as well as Excel and game copies!!! Okay, no more, I'm very busy here!!!" The store manager put down Call and immediately swipe another customer's card to check out. POS machines were already very popular at that time. In the future, Microsoft will also develop operating systems for POS...
Li Zetian, Tian Shuai, Zhang Hao and others took a flight from San Jose to Los Angeles early in the morning. When they arrived at the flagship store, they were surprised to see how popular the flagship store was.
Zhang Hao excitedly said to Li Zetian: "Mr. Li, the business of the Apple flagship store in Los Angeles is so booming, should we quickly build flagship stores in other cities? You know, then retailers are so disgusting, they charge a fee for every machine sold. An expensive expense!”
Li Zetian nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, we will discuss this matter immediately after we return!"
"Mr.li, the employees at IBM seem to be peeking at our flagship store!" Tian Shuai chuckled and pointed to the IBM store opposite.
At this moment, the IBM store can almost be described as deserted.
Everyone was attracted to the Apple flagship store.
The cool architecture and popular scenes make this section of the road to the Apple flagship store particularly unique! ! !
Li Zetian has very good eyesight, and seemed to see Thomas Watson Jr., the head of IBM, also coming. When he took a closer look and said, "Oh, let me go," Thomas Watson suddenly fainted from anger. The IBM team immediately became in a hurry, helped him to the car, and rushed to the hospital.
"Mr.li, that person seems to be Thomas Watson Jr., right?"
Tian Shuai followed Li Zetian's gaze and happened to see Thomas Watson fainting.
"Haha, yes, it should be him!"
Tian Shuai couldn't help but laugh: "IBM President Thomas Watson Jr. is so pitiful. He was so angry at Wang An Computer Company that he fainted two years ago, and today he fainted with Apple..."
Li Zetian smiled and said, "Haha, IBM is an industry giant, but now that Apple is rapidly rising, IBM is in danger of losing its position. Of course, Thomas Watson Jr. is restless, fearing that he will be ***”
"Mr.li, what does ***** mean?" Tian Shuai asked doubtfully.
Li Zetian was stunned for a moment, and he didn't think too much, "****** said it smoothly. In this era, chrysanthemums are still chrysanthemums...
"It means to be surpassed..." Li Zetian explained.
Tian Shuai shook his head inwardly. From time to time, his boss would burst out some new words, which were completely incomprehensible.
Li Zetian looked at the flagship store at this time and said secretly: "The 400-square-meter flagship store is still too small after all. When there are more people, it becomes crowded. The next flagship store must be at least 1,000 square meters! In addition, more waiters are needed..."
"Since the business of the flagship store is so good, we are relieved. Let's go back to the company, contact the retailers we cooperate with, and ask them to send today's sales data of Apple-ll, Excel and game copies to Our company." Li Zetian said to Tian Shuai and Zhang Hao.
"Yeah!" The two nodded.
…
On this day, there was a craze for Apple-ll personal computers in the United States and even around the world.
Although the business of other retail stores is not as popular as Apple's flagship store, it is still very lively. Major television media have broadcast the "Global Developers Conference" held by Apple, allowing more and more ordinary people to see Apple-ll.
At 11:30 p.m., Apple finally compiled global sales data.
The sales volume of the Apple-ll low-end version was 4,500 units, and the sales volume of the Apple-ll high-end version was 1,200 units, for a total of 5,700 Apple-ll personal computers, with sales of US$9.42 million.
Excel sold 3,425 copies at $200 each, for sales of $685,000.
"Chinese Cube" sold 4,204 copies, "Pac-Man" sold 2,843 copies, "Arkanoid" sold 2,355 copies, and "Donkey Kong" sold 2,401 copies, for a total of 10,800 Copies of the game cost $100 each, with sales of $1.08 million.
At this moment, senior executives from Apple, Microsoft, and Sunbird were gathered at Apple's headquarters. When they heard these numbers, they couldn't help but cheer!
Li Zetian smiled and thought it was okay. Generally speaking, the first day a new product is released is when sales are the hottest, and it is normal to sell thousands of machines.
Because Apple-l has already become famous before, Apple-ll will attract great attention when it is released!
In addition, Excel and games are more powerful than in previous generations, and there are more channels and cooperative companies. Some large companies purchase dozens or even hundreds of units, such as AT\u0026amp;T, General Motors, Exxon, and First Intercontinental Bank. , Big Four accounting firms and other companies.
Li Zetian clapped his hands and said: "The data shows that the four games of Apple-ll, Excel and Sunbird have all achieved unprecedented success! Let's keep up the hard work and create better results!!!"
Bang bang bang! !
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone clapped vigorously and excitedly!
Li Zetian waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then said: "It's very late now, everyone should go home and sleep!"
Zhang Hao shook his head and smiled: "I am so excited now, how can I still sleep!"
Everyone also nodded.
Li Zetian smiled and said: "Go to bed even if you can't sleep, so that you can have the energy to work the next day. I think you will be even busier in the next period of time!!"
Yes, Apple-ll is so popular, there must be more companies wanting to cooperate with Apple, and it won’t be long before Apple’s threshold is crossed! For example, third-party software developers, expansion card developers, distributors, etc., they may come from all over the world!
At Li Zetian's urging, everyone left Apple one after another.
After Li Zetian returned home, he immediately called Yu Jingqiu.
Yu Jingqiu hadn't gone to bed yet and was waiting in front of the phone, waiting for Li Zetian's call.
When the phone rang, Yu Jingqiu quickly picked up the phone.
"Hey, is this Zetian?"
"Dear, it's me!" Li Zetian responded, and continued, "According to the sales data, Apple-ll personal computers are a great success..."
Li Zetian then told her the specific sales data.
Yu Jingqiu is really happy and proud of Li Zetian!
"Zetian, you succeeded, you will soon become a billionaire, the youngest billionaire in the world!!!"
18 year old billionaire!
Li Zetian will be the first person in history on earth! ! !
"My dear, my glory is your glory, you are the fiancée of a billionaire!!!" Li Zetian said softly and affectionately.
Hearing this, Yu Jingqiu was filled with happiness at the moment.
At the very beginning, Yu Jingqiu felt that Li Zetian was different, and she just liked this type of man, so she tried to actively pursue him, and finally fell in love with him slowly. Yu Jingqiu never thought that Li Zetian would achieve such great achievements today! At that time, Yu Jingqiu herself was the daughter of a multimillionaire, while Li Zetian was just a poor boy from China.
What does Yu Jingqiu picture Li Zetian?
Who would have thought that Li Zetian would become a billionaire?
Is it wrong for a woman to admire a man and actively pursue him?
"Jingqiu, Harvard University is on holiday in June, do you want to come over?" Li Zetian asked.
"No, my dad opened a Chinese fast food restaurant in Chinatown, New York, and plans to start the business again. I plan to go over and help him!" Yu Jingqiu replied.
"Okay, then I will go over and see you when I have time..."
"Um……"
