Rebuild 2005

At the same time, on the fourth floor of the Baifu Building in the capital, Huang Sheng had just finished a meeting and returned to his office.

The company got off work at six o'clock, and he still had a game tonight, so he was not in a hurry to leave. After returning to the office, he thought about what he was going to talk about in the evening.

At this moment, he suddenly heard someone knocking on the door, raised his head, stood up hurriedly and said, "Tai Dong~"

The visitor was about fifty years old, and it was Tai Wuchun, the founder and chairman of the company. He waved his hand and motioned him to sit down.

Huang Sheng hurriedly got up from behind the desk, accompanied him to sit down on the sofa in the reception area, and said with a smile, "Just call me if you have something to do, why did you come here by yourself?"

"I'm about to leave. I just remembered something. Come and sit down."

Tai Wuchun leaned on the sofa, "No need to make tea, I'll leave after I finish speaking... Wei Qingfan, do you know this person?"

Huang Sheng was stunned for a moment, wondering why he mentioned Wei Qingfan, and said, "Yes, an old friend's junior...how did Director Tai remember to ask this?"

While speaking, his heart moved, he had already guessed the possibility, but he was even more puzzled.

"I also heard about it at the noon dinner. I heard that this kid is quite capable, and he wants to smash our jobs."

"what?"

Huang Sheng was a little confused. Didn't Wei Qingfan want to make a mobile phone? Why did he get involved in losing his job?

"How do you say that?"

"He got a company to make mobile phones, and held a press conference yesterday, you know about that, right?"

"...I've been a little busy these past two days, so I really didn't pay attention, but I know he wants to make a mobile phone. I met him a while ago and asked us to help... Mr. Tai is also here."

"Don't mention that useless one."

Tai Wuchun sighed, then paused, and then said: "You will understand when you look back at his press conference. This kid made a mobile phone. It's amazing...Young man, very thoughtful! You know what he did What does the phone look like?"

Huang Sheng smiled helplessly: "How do I know where to go?"

"According to what he said at the press conference, it has the same configuration as the Samsung i9000, or even better!"

"how is this possible?"

Huang Sheng was very knowledgeable, and suddenly felt incredible, "He is a small start-up company, and it is a domestic brand, and he directly makes high-end... Who will buy it? No one will recognize it."

Tai Wuchun took out a cigarette and handed him one, Huang Sheng lit it for him, and said with a smile, "Black Stone Forest?"

"I don't have much here... If you like it, I will send you two back?"

"Gentlemen don't take away people's love, so keep smoking."

Tai Wuchun took a drag on his cigarette, stared at Huang Sheng and asked, "Do you know how much he sells for?"

Black Stone Forest is an out-of-print cigarette. It was not expensive at first. After the production was discontinued, the price has soared. At present, it has sold [-] to [-] cigarettes, which is more expensive than Big Green Cat.

Huang Sheng didn't like it, but he didn't mind trying it, so he took a breath and asked, "How much?"

He vaguely guessed the direction in his mind. Wei Qingfan should want to sell it cheaper, which is normal. After all, only big foreign brands are eligible for a premium. Like Meizu M8, if it is a foreign brand, if it sells for 4000, there will still be a lot of people buying it. .

Tai Wuchun asked: "1999!"

"how is this possible?"

Huang Sheng almost jumped up, "The cost price is about the same...he's still making a lot of money!"

"People don't use channels!"

Tai Wuchun exhaled slowly, his face darkened, and said: "People have already announced that they want to get rid of the distributors, prevent the middlemen from making a difference, sell directly online, and sell the mobile phones directly from them to consumers... "

Huang Sheng fell silent, thought for a while, and said, "Even so, the price is too low... Samsung's i9000 is estimated to cost more than 6000 when it goes on the market... What is he selling for 1999? Is there any profit from it? How can there be such a business?"

"Mobile phones, hundreds of parts, he only promotes the main ones, and other places can save money, and the profits will definitely be profitable. Even if a mobile phone earns a little less, small profits but quick sales can still make money... "

Tai Wuchun leaned on the sofa, exhaled slowly, and stared at Huang Shengdao, "The question is, can his method be successful... If it does, will it affect us? Will other shopping malls follow suit... "

What Tai Wuchun can think of, Huang Sheng can naturally think of it, but in the workplace, sometimes you have to show your ability, and sometimes you have to pretend to be stupid, but this is obviously not the time to play stupid, frowning and thinking about it: " Probably not, even in big cities, how many people can surf the Internet? Not to mention remote cities, counties, and towns..."

Tai Wuchun said: "But according to the courage shown by this kid, he may directly open a direct store."

"can not open."

After Huang Sheng thought for a while, he shook his head quickly, and said, "The shop is too big and the cost is too high. By then, these things alone will drag him to death... And if he wants to go online novels, it's the way of e-commerce. ... Ali has been doing it for so many years, and it has no effect on us. A mobile phone is not something that costs thousands of dollars to buy a pair of socks.

Tai Wuchun nodded, and then said: "I came to you, one is to tell you, you can pay attention later; the other, since you know each other, you might as well get in touch and see if we can cooperate... I read their website According to the detailed introduction, his mobile phone will not worry about selling even if it is increased by another five hundred."

"You think so highly?"

Huang Sheng was a little surprised, "Better than M8?"

"Still strong!"

Tai Wuchun gave an affirmative answer, and then got up and said: "Go and get in touch first, to find out the tone, do business, pay attention to harmony and make money, there is no need to fight and kill, everyone who has money can make money together."

"it is good."

Huang Sheng agreed, but then he seemed to think of something, he hesitated for a while.

Tai Wuchun asked: "Why, is there any difficulty?"

Huang Sheng was a little embarrassed and said: "The last time we met, Boss Tai and this kid... were not very happy..."

Tai Wuchun obviously didn't know about this, he was stunned for a moment, and then cursed: "This bastard...it's okay, as long as we can cooperate and make money, I'll let Tai Shaochun kneel down for that kid, it's fine."

"No, no, you are serious."

Huang Sheng intended to dig a hole, but he also knew that the opposite was also an old fox, so he quickly persuaded him with a smile, and then watched Tai Wuchun leave before returning to the computer.

He searched for "ancient word mobile phone". Last month, Google took a retreat and announced its withdrawal from the mainland, but it was not a foregone conclusion. Baidu is still very obedient, there are no such arrogant advertisements, and the first few entries are all related , It is not occupied by any treasure, anything or any store.

Huang Sheng clicked on the official mobile phone website of Guci, and the page that popped up was a poster banner with the slogan "Excellent value for money, change the future".

Below is the front view of the mobile phone. Even though he sees a lot of smartphones and is holding an iPhone3Gs in his hand, Huang Sheng also feels that his eyes are bright, because the original expectation is very low. After all, the establishment of ancient poetry is too short, and Wei Qingfan is a fluff kid.

The slender and simple front view of the mobile phone on the screen looks quite good, just like the original Meizu M8, it is hard to imagine that it was made by a little-known company in China.

He slid the mouse down, saw the introduction of hardware and software, and then saw the sales information and the reservation interface. After clicking in, he saw the current number of reservations: 70379 people!
"Sigh~"

Huang Sheng gasped, a small company that had never made a mobile phone before, just held a press conference yesterday, and opened appointments this morning, it only took half a day, so 7 people already made appointments?
Although making an appointment does not mean buying, but being able to make an appointment so quickly, there must be a lot of attention and a strong purchase intention. 7 people are likely to sell 5 units!
The Meizu M8 is so popular that at the beginning of its release, a bunch of people couldn’t buy it with money. They queued up offline and bought it at a higher price. It sold [-] units in two months, which is already a record for domestic mobile phones.

Didn't this ancient phone sell as much as Meizu's for a month in one day?
If they can keep up with production...

Huang Sheng was thinking in his heart that Wei Qingfan had just started making mobile phones, so he would definitely not dare to mass-produce and stock up immediately. Even if it goes on sale next week, there must be a very small amount... According to M8's experience, even if this mobile phone is purchased at the original price, It can also be sold at a premium.

If we can cooperate, we will definitely not lose money.

However, even when facing Meizu back then, Huang Sheng never took the initiative to come to ask for cooperation. Although the idea flashed across him and asked him to take the initiative to find Wei Qingfan, he still felt a little embarrassed.

From a business point of view, being proactive means negotiating passively, which is also not good for the company...

He told himself secretly, but this was something Tai Wuchun personally ordered, and if he asked back, he had to have something to answer.

Of course, he believes that Tai Wuchun will definitely not let himself lower his profile... When will they bow their heads to domestic mobile phone brands?
It's all those brands who ask for their own side, and the channel is leaning on the shipment volume. Who will make trouble with the money?
Of course, no one will have trouble with money, but how to make money is the problem.

Soon after, he will understand that in addition to "channel means sales", there is another way to make money called "stock means money".

After thinking about it again, Huang Sheng picked up his cell phone and dialed Li Shuqing's number.

It's impossible for me to find Wei Qingfan directly!But you can take a detour and send a message through his old man first.

……

"Boss Wei?"

Wei Qingfan managed to exchange two mobile phones for a bowl of noodles. Just as he sat down with Cao Ze, a boy next to him came out of nowhere and looked at him with a surprised expression.

Wei Qingfan nodded and smiled while maintaining a chic and polite attitude: "Hello."

"Hello, hello... Really?"

The man looked even more surprised, and glanced at the two mobile phones Cao Ze put on the table, "Is this the Guci mobile phone? I..."

He was a little excited, paused, and still a little embarrassed said: "Can I have a look?"

"He hasn't disassembled his mobile phone yet, so I'll give it to you."

Wei Qingfan handed him his mobile phone, and the other party took it over in surprise, thanked him repeatedly, sat down beside him, and said, "I definitely don't read private information... I just check my phone..."

"fine."

Wei Qingfan started to eat noodles, seeing Cao Ze looking at him in surprise, he raised his eyebrows at him proudly.

Cao Ze curled his lips and buried himself in the noodles.

Because it was Wei Qingfan's personal mobile phone, the other party didn't watch much of the conference, looked at the appearance, then looked at the settings, felt it a little, and then returned it, thanked him repeatedly, and asked: "Mr. Let me ask... do you have a lot of stock? I don't have a premium purchase code, so I'm afraid I won't be able to get it..."

"There are quite a lot, there will be at least 10,000+ units by then."

"That's good~ Thank you, Mr. Wei, for your trouble, and I hope the phone sells well!"

The other party didn't bother me any more, thanked him again and left. Wei Qingfan took back his phone and smiled at Cao Ze: "Is there a feeling that I suddenly became a star?"

Cao Ze sneered and said, "What kind of star are you? With your looks..."

"What's wrong with my appearance? I'm not as handsome as you are Ma Chao?"

"Ha ha!"

Cao Ze curled his lips and sneered, Wei Qingfan was not as knowledgeable as him, and said while eating noodles, "Have you thought about what to do after graduation?"

Cao Ze was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, "I thought about it, but I don't know."

Wei Qingfan smiled and said, "How about I show you the way?"

Cao Ze said suspiciously, "You don't want me to work for you, do you?"

"You're thinking about farting?"

Wei Qingfan rolled his eyes, "What will you do when you go to my place? Even if you serve tea and water, can't I let Li Miaoyu do it?"

Cao Ze said angrily, "Then what are you talking about!"

"I said something else."

Cao Ze thought for a while and asked, "What?"

"I won't tell you now. It's useless to tell you now. I'll talk about it after graduation. You can continue to look for part-time jobs in the past two years, and practice how to deal with people."

"What are you..."

Cao Ze wanted to strangle him to death, "Then tell me what to do now!"

Wei Qingfan continued to play tricks, and said with a smile: "It's on the phone, you use it for a while, use it for a while, you don't need me to tell you, you will understand."

He really didn't think about letting Cao Ze enter ancient poetry. This may be good for Cao Ze in a short period of time, but after a long time, the relationship between the two from childhood to adulthood may be destroyed.

The way Wei Qingfan thinks of him is to make mobile phone accessories, such as film and mobile phone cases. In the next few years, with the popularity of smart phones, the related market will expand rapidly.

In fact, there is an easier way to make money, which is to be an agent. Even if you follow the ancient poems as a scalper, it is easy to make money. But in this way, you are still making money by relying on the ancient poems. Cao Ze will probably still have psychological pressure , making accessories is relatively more independent.

It's not easy to get rich and rich in this business, and Cao Ze doesn't have the ability and ambition. He is a middle-of-the-road person, and he also has the mentality of being a little rich. Getting rich shouldn't be hard.

This is related to the mobile phone industry, and maybe we need to get some information from the supply chain or him in advance, but there is no upper and lower ownership, and we can get along for a long time.
