Chapter 534: Selling Well Is Painful
I don't know if it was stimulated by the appearance of dreams, and after the arrival of a new batch of pocket electronic pet machines in the afternoon, the speed of sales was even faster than in the morning, and in less than two hours, the second batch of 1000 units was sold out again, and Kentero, the previous pit goods, was actually the first to be sold out.
But fortunately, Lewis is much smarter this time, and he has discovered the amazing potential of pocket electronic pet machines, so in the second batch of purchases, he actually bought 10,000 units in one go.
It turned out that Lewis's decision was extremely wise, because after 5:00 p.m., when other grocery store owners called Daqian to place orders, Daqian said that the goods had all been sold out, and it would take three days to transfer the goods from the warehouse, and there would only be 10,000 units left in Lewis's store in New York.
At this moment, in the office of Fusang Daqian, Jack Orens and Henry Orlens were as anxious as ants on a hot pot, and they were about to collapse.
It's not that there is a problem with sales, but because the sales are so good, these two people feel like they are about to collapse.
"I asked you to buy a little more, you didn't say that 20 million units is enough, but now it's good, 15 million units will be sold out in a day, and there are only 5 million units left in the warehouse, but there are at least 10 million orders in the country, what do you say!" Jack Orlens lost his temper at his father, and Henry Orens could only smile awkwardly, because he really cheated his own son in this matter.
When they first placed an order with the head office, Boss Jia asked them how many goods they would prepare in the first batch.
Jack Orlens felt that he had to prepare 30 million units, but Henry Orlens felt that 10 million units was enough, and later, after a quarrel between the two fathers and sons, they decided to take a step back and buy 20 million units.
But I didn't expect that in just one day of sale, 20 million pocket electronic pet machines were sold 15 million units, such an amazing sales, naturally made the two fathers and sons scared away, you must know that there are 5 million units left in the warehouse now, these 5 million units, I am afraid that they will all be sold out tomorrow morning.
As a result, Jack Orlens quickly took his temper out on his father.
Faced with his son's temper, the father could only smile awkwardly.
"I don't know, I estimate that the sales of Pokemon game cartridges are more than 30 million, and the sales volume in the first month is actually only a few million, so 10 million units should be enough!"
"After all, our branch and the head office take an independent account, and we have to pay money to the head office to get the goods, if we can't sell them in a short time, our performance will be ugly!" Henry Orlens said with a wry smile.
"Hey, I said it a long time ago, we sell it too cheaply, the price of a unit for 9 dollars is 15 cheaper than the game cartridge, of course it will sell very crazy, and it's normal for one person to buy a dozen or so!"
"Forget Dad, there's nothing to say, let's figure out how to solve the problem!"
"Did you call the head office and ask for the goods?" Henry Orlens asked.
"Yes, but the head office said that the global sales are very crazy now, today in one day, more than 6 million units were sold in Europe, more than 10 million units were sold in Fuso, more than 1 million units were sold in mainland China, and even in South America, there are millions of sales, I'm afraid that in addition to Africa, there is no continent that has no sales of millions!"
"A total of 60 million units have been produced at the head office, and they have been distributed to almost all regions of the world. Now the head office has started three shifts, overtime production machines, but it will take a week at the earliest, the second batch of goods can be transported by air, and it can only be allocated to us 3 million units, I have no choice! Jack Orlens said helplessly.
"Then you say, can we ask the head office for instructions, and then we will build a production company in the United States, and we will produce it ourselves!" Henry Orlens rolled his eyes and showed a cunning expression.
"Dad, don't think about it, we can't make this thing!" Jack Orlens said helplessly.
"Why?"
"Because we're going to lose money!" Jack Orlens sighed and said, "The price we buy from the head office is $5 a unit, and if you include taxes, it's about $6 a unit, and we sell it to dealers at a price of $8, so we still have two dollars in profits." ”
"But if we build a factory in the United States ourselves, even if the cost of workers is not mentioned, the cost of these materials alone will cost more than $20, and if we include the labor costs of workers and the construction cost of the factory, the total cost of each machine will soar to about $25! It is around 5 times that I import from the head office! ”
"So we can only import from the head office, and building our own factory is a dead end, and there is no way to live!" Jack Orlens shook his head.
"Hell, I've been with Huaxia for so long, why never knew that Huaxia people could keep costs down to this extent!" Henry Orlens exclaimed in disbelief.
"Yes, the Chinese people are too terrible, one day in the future, if the goods of Huaxia can enter our country without hindrance, then the manufacturing industry of our country will probably be hit to an overwhelming extent!" Jack Orlens said presciently.
————————————
"Boss, this is a sales report sent from all over the world, we have more than 60 million pocket electronic pet machines all over the world, and 40 million sales have been achieved in one day, which is really crazy!" In Boss Jia's office, Xiao Chen, Boss Jia's new secretary, reported to Boss Jia excitedly.
"Hmm!" Boss Jia nodded, this secretary Xiao Chen is good at everything, he is still a top student at Harvard University in the United States, and he speaks more English than Boss Jia. It's a pity that it's a man, and the small lounge in his office hasn't been used for a long time.
It's a pity that this secretary was personally found by Zhu Qiushui, considering that the child in Zhu Qiushui's belly has been three months now, Boss Jia decided to endure it, so as not to make Zhu Qiushui angry during this time, so as to wait for the child to be born.
"What is the output of Daqian Puzzle's production base now?" Boss Jia asked again
"Report to the boss, the base has stopped the production of primary school learning machines, started three shifts, the machine does not stop for a moment, and makes every effort to produce pocket electronic pet machines, I heard that even the production line is tired of two pieces, and more than ten burning machines are broken!"
"But now we have a daily output of 800,000 units, which should be the peak output of the entire factory!" The secretary said.
"Hey, it's only 800,000 units a day, and it's only 8 million in 10 days, and it looks like all 60 million units will be sold out tomorrow, and the total demand in the market will be at least 150 million units...... This is crazy, I thought that 60 million units could be sold for at least half a month, and we still have half a month to accelerate production! ”
This time, even Boss Jia miscalculated, in fact, the pocket electronic pet has been mass-produced since October, and it has been 4 months since then.
If Boss Jia has been working hard to produce and directly pushed the output to the peak of 800,000 units per day, it would be possible to accumulate a stock of 96 million machines in 4 months.
But the problem is that Boss Jia estimates that in the first month after the machine starts to sell, the sales volume will not exceed 60 million units, after all, it took more than half a year for Pokemon game cartridges to sell more than 30 million units.
Boss Jia can estimate that he will sell 60 million units a month, which is already a very bold bet.
But Boss Jia never imagined that this real sales would be so terrifying, so terrifying that the production capacity of Daqian was almost unbearable.
I didn't expect it to sell well, but it would be so painful.
"Well, you don't have any good news for me?" After the headache, Boss Jia looked at his secretary and asked.
"Good news...... I want to see it...... By the way, Chief Engineer Ni said that when you are free, you can go to him to see if he has a surprise for you! ”
