Chapter 601 [Stir-fried Cattle]

As Xingyu Technology's supply chain was broken, the factory caught fire and several key components of S3 could not be supplied on schedule, which limited the production capacity of the product, and the daily shipment supply dropped to about 50,000 units.

As a result, many consumers who want to buy an S3 mobile phone cannot buy the product they want, making the second-hand market hyped by scalpers to sky-high prices.

It was also on the news again, causing heated discussions.

An S3 mobile phone with a price of 6,298 yuan has been fired to a sky-high price of 25,700 yuan. According to the official retail price, you can buy three more mobile phones with the same configuration. Those who are not short of money really can’t afford this price.

Now in many cities, there are a lot of people who earn 2,000 yuan a month, including those who make screws in factories. The price of a mobile phone can match the annual wages of low-level workers, and it has directly become a luxury.

On Thursday, July 19th, in the case of huge market demand and a sharp drop of 75% in supply, the price of S3 mobile phones in the second-hand market has been rising all the way. There was a transaction today, and a buyer paid 28,800 yuan. The price bought seven S3 smartphones, with a total price of more than 200,000 yuan.

The scalper circle was a sensation.

This price once again set a new record for the transaction price, which can be described as frenzied. The price in the second-hand market has skyrocketed by 3.5 times compared with the official retail price.

This news is also being spread on the Internet. Netizens who eat melons are dumbfounded, unable to understand the world of the rich. They feel that they are buying mobile phones with happy beans, and they feel that poverty limits their imagination.

All of a sudden, this incident aroused a lot of discussion on the Internet, basically condemning scalpers.

News reports and hot discussions on the Internet spread the information quickly, and let more and more people know that the price of S3 mobile phones continues to rise.

And the hype in the second-hand market has also made Xingyu Technology's offline physical store popular. It has been almost a month since the product was released, and it is still overcrowded, and everyone is queuing up to buy it.

But the nature of the people queuing up to buy has gradually changed. Just after the second-hand market of the S3 mobile phone showed a transaction list of 28,800 yuan, more and more people wanted to make a fortune with this mobile phone.

In the face of huge economic benefit expectations, everyone has become a scalper.

In the next three days, scalpers accounted for more than half of the crowds in the crowded queues at Xingyu Technology's major offline physical stores, and six or seven of the ten people in the queue bought mobile phones not for their own use.

But want to take the opportunity to make a fortune.

Buying one for 6,298 yuan and reselling it for more than 20,000 yuan is simply huge profits. Who can't be tempted?

Coupled with the reports on the news, many people feel that they can take this opportunity to make a lot of quick money.

Although most people will not really do it, but the huge base of people can't stand it, even if it is a small proportion, the actual absolute number is very impressive. In the current situation of sharply reduced supply, the supply is in short supply.

But just in the past few days, a small number of veteran scalpers with a keen sense of smell smelled something wrong, and quickly sold them out. In addition to finding real rich sellers, another way to sell them quickly is to let other "young" Greedy scalpers take over.

Huyou, scene talk and so on must be indispensable, in short, trick the other party into taking the offer.

Seeing the current situation, this small group of veterans vaguely feel that the second-hand market is about to collapse, because more and more people know that S3 mobile phones can make a lot of money, and the number of people who join in and want to get a share of the pie has soared.

Obviously, this time is a great time to ship.

Don't do things about Jiuli, and don't go to places where people are fighting.

When everyone thinks that something can make money, there is no money-making effect.

No matter how much money you make, a fish pond is only that big, and there is an upper limit. When there are more fish in the fish pond than water, you will die if you don’t run away.

as expected.

After the weekend weekend, on July 23rd, the second-hand market price of S3 mobile phones plummeted, falling from the highest price of 28,800 yuan to 21,500 yuan in just two days, a direct drop of about -25%. dropped by a quarter.

Because there are more scalpers queuing up to buy these days than normal consumers who actually bought them for their own use, a huge selling pressure was released at once. In addition, the condemnation on the Internet is also continuing to rise.

A mobile phone has been hyped to a price of 28,800 yuan, which is beyond the tolerance of most people.

However, there was rumor of a price increase the next day, and the price of the 64GB version of the S3 mobile phone in the second-hand market rose from 21,500 yuan to 23,000 yuan.

There are big brother-level players trading in it, because the benefits are too great, and there were funds operating in it before.

When the benefits increased, the evil wind began to blow wildly.

On July 25th, a short video of about 20 seconds went viral on the Internet.

It was a factory building that caught fire, but there is no specific source.

However, there are rumors on the Internet that this is the production line of a supplier under Xingyu Technology, and some people on the Internet broke the news that this is done by a competitor in the same industry.

Good guy!

This news directly became a breaking news on the Internet, and was followed, discussed and speculated by countless netizens who eat melons.

For example, guess whether it is an apple, such as Xiaomi and so on.

The fire is not the point, the point is that it is rumored to be done by competitors.

The news has no source, and no one cares whether the source of the news is reliable or not. It is difficult for people to distinguish the true from the false among the chaotic voices on the Internet, and it is possible to have a well-organized analysis in a small composition.

Xingyu Technology's products are too successful, almost monopolizing 90% of the profits of the domestic mobile phone industry, jealousy and hatred, other manufacturers have motives.

Anyway, the analysis of this small composition has a nose and an eye.

It attracted the attention of melon-eating netizens, and many people who didn't know the truth were brought into the rhythm. They began to speculate that those few "friends" did good things, and some "star fans" were also brought into the rhythm. Friends and businessmen criticize with words and pens.

The news continued to ferment on the Internet, and this matter also alarmed Qin Feng, and even Fang Hong paid attention to the news.

At about 14 o'clock in the afternoon, in the CEO office of Xingyu Technology headquarters, Qin Feng told his assistant: "Call all the supply chain manufacturers under the company immediately, and find out as quickly as possible whether there is a real fire or not. Now, which house caught fire again, if not, immediately refute the rumor.”

"clear!"

After the assistant left, Qin Feng also thought about it without saying a word. He believed in his heart that the news was fake, and his friends and business colleagues would probably not do such stupid things. Things like factory fires are usually self-directed and acted Well, Samsung has done a lot of this kind of thing, including Xingyu Technology before.

But nothing is absolute, it must be confirmed.

Whether it is true or false, it has to be confirmed with a hammer.

If true, the situation is dire.

If it is false, then you have to refute the rumor quickly.

Otherwise, it will make friends and businessmen collectively dissatisfied with Xingyu Technology, which is obviously discrediting the company. Although Qin Feng is not afraid of offending friends and businessmen, he can't be so vague as someone else's knife.
