Chapter 581 Don’t take advantage of the bastard

Faced with many difficulties, the "Second World" employees did not show any nervousness, panic, or even worry. They still went to and from get off work according to the established plan every day, turning a deaf ear to any criticism from the outside world, as if all these It seems like it has nothing to do with them. His face is always filled with a happy and confident smile.

This "irrational" behavior of the "Second World" employees has aroused suspicion from all walks of life. They don't understand why the employees of the "Second World" still remain in the situation when it is very likely that this wrong decision will cause drastic changes in the entire company.

So optimistic. This is incredible.

According to extremely secretive information obtained by some knowledgeable reporters, the order for "smart" computers is less than 20,000, and the information learned from "Foxconn" is that "Second World" has already placed an order for 1 million.

Order. Although I don't know how much this "smart" computer with a nominal price of "2780 yuan" costs, but with such a low price, the profit is definitely extremely slim. The cost of a million orders is at least more than 2 billion yuan. If it loses money, this

For the "Second World", it is also a considerable loss, and the stock price will be directly affected by the fluctuations, which will bring about a series of chain reactions.

Why are "Second World" employees still so optimistic under such circumstances? "Foxconn" has also invested in a production line specifically for the "Second World" and mobilized tens of thousands of employees to work overtime for its production. Why is this?

Many reporters were suspicious and asked "Second World" employees out of curiosity, and without exception they all got the same answer - I believe our chairman will create miracles.

For this reason alone, reporters from all walks of life interviewed 278 "Second World" employees, and they all said the same thing - they believe in Lin Feng.

Is Lin Feng really that powerful and able to create miracles? - Many reporters were a little confused, especially the almost adoring look in the eyes of many "Second World" employees during the interview, which made all reporters dumbfounded.

Many competitors, especially multinational companies such as "Dell" and "HP", are even more horrified by this almost blind worship of "second world" employees. If all employees of a company have this kind of attitude toward their decision-makers,

Almost blind worship, the "combat power" that this company can unleash will be extremely amazing. Being a competitor of such a company is undoubtedly very sad.

So can Lin Feng really lead the "Second World" out of its current predicament?

Under the attention of the industry, Lin Feng took action.

Lin Feng's first response was to address parents' concerns about after-sales service. As the chairman of "Dingdang.com", Lin Feng assured all users who purchased "smart" computers that all repair sites under "Dingdang.com" would provide "smart" computers free of charge.

"The computer provides door-to-door service during the maintenance period. After the maintenance period, low maintenance fees will be provided. Free door-to-door delivery will be provided, and the cheapest computer desk will be provided.

The introduction of this measure immediately dispelled the concerns of most parents.

"Dingdang.com" has been selling various household appliances through b2c in the past year and has gained considerable popularity. Moreover, its repair sites employ mostly laid-off workers and are extremely enthusiastic about repairs and have also won a lot of reputation. I heard that "

The repair station of “Dingdang.com” provides full service, and many parents are relieved.

At the same time, when buying computers, many parents also chose to buy a computer desk. This is why "Dingdang.com" and "Chengpiao Astronomy" invested heavily in hiring relevant teachers to teach these laid-off workers. Originally, Lin Feng could directly hire

Technical secondary school students or college students from relevant schools, but simple computer software fault repairs are not complicated. It is better to train these laid-off workers whose ideas are not completely rigid. Moreover, with their ability to repair electrical appliances, they can also repair some simple ones.

Circuit problem.

What's more, when these maintenance workers in their thirties learn to repair computers, the impact will be widespread, not only benefiting people around them, but also promoting the popularity of computers in China.

Three days! In just three days, orders for "smart" computers surged to 100,000 through phone orders and online orders, which was beyond everyone's expectations.

In this regard, everyone can only secretly feel helpless. Most people have forgotten that Lin Feng also owns "Dingdang.com", and currently "Dingdang.com" is definitely the overlord of b2c and c2c in China, with fast delivery, perfect after-sales, and safety

The transaction method makes "Dingdang.com" unparalleled in popularity in China.

Alas! At this point, many company bosses can only sigh secretly.

Later, Lin Feng launched new policies.

——Use your computer like watching TV!

Lin Feng asked an Indian outsourcing company to add a remote control function to the software, and asked "Foxconn" to add an infrared remote control, so that all parents can use the computer like watching TV and using a remote control. And in the first time, through advertising, like all parents

Demonstrates the functionality of this "computer remote control".

In the advertisement, parents can easily use the remote control to operate the computer into learning mode or game mode, or even lock the computer so that it cannot be turned on. Moreover, the remote control has a one-click restore function, so the computer cannot be logged in due to software reasons.

, just press the "Restore" button to restore the computer system.

The publication of this advertisement caused the order sales to increase significantly again, exceeding 400,000 orders in one fell swoop. After all, for many parents, there are two biggest headaches in buying computers. One is that they do not understand computers and cannot operate them. Now with this remote control

The device can be easily controlled by remote control and can switch between several modes very freely, which is naturally very convenient.

Second, there is another factor that prevents parents from making up their mind to buy computers. Originally, parents bought computers for their children to study, but computers can also be used for games, which is unacceptable to parents. Nowadays, with the computer locking function, the computer can be locked in

In the learning mode, children can do nothing but study, which naturally makes all parents feel at ease.

Many computer sales companies were speechless about the "computer remote control" launched by "Second World". They did not expect that Lin Feng would tinker with it, but it was very popular with parents.

Admiration!——Many CEOs of computer sales companies can only say these two words about Lin Feng.

Taking advantage of this favorable situation, Lin Feng came up with a third move - installment payment.

Originally, “Dingdang.com” had signed an installment payment agreement with Industrial and Commercial Bank of China. Users could purchase anything on “Dingdang.com” and pay in installments. Of course, they must provide proof of stable monthly income, as long as they can prove that they have a job, a fixed residence and

With proof of identity, you can easily purchase goods by installment payment on "Dingdang.com".

Nowadays, 2,600 yuan is still a bit difficult for some parents. Large-scale mass production can bring the greatest benefits. In order to continue to stimulate parents' desire to buy, Lin Feng has launched an installment payment model. Parents can use 1-year installments or 3-year installments.

There are many free and flexible options, with a maximum term of 5 years.

After this decision was made, orders instantly jumped to more than 900,000 yuan, and many company executives were stunned. And more parents are still waiting to see the feedback from the first batch of users who have ordered "smart" computers.

Lin Feng believes that the customer base of "smart" computers will be in the tens of millions.

Although orders for "smart" products jumped exponentially, many computer sales companies did not panic because "smart" computers were so cheap that it was unbelievable. Companies such as "Dell" were also leaders in the computer sales industry, so naturally they

Can estimate the cost of a "smart" computer.

The price is 2,600 yuan. Including OEM, the cost should be around 2,570 yuan. A computer only has a gross profit of about 30 yuan. Although profits are small but quick turnover, 1 million units is a gross profit of 30 million. But including the overwhelming amount of money during this period,

Advertising, as well as after-sales service, transportation and other aspects, I am afraid they will still lose money. Therefore, these computer sales companies are not panic at all and wait for the next step.

"Boss, after adding this infrared remote control function, the software is very simple and there are no problems. But there are problems with the hardware. The infrared receiver and remote control will undoubtedly increase the cost. According to Foxconn's response, even if it is in the tens of millions,

For mass production, the cost of each computer will increase to 2,605 yuan, but we only sell it for 2,600 yuan. Each computer will lose 5 yuan. The current order is only 1 million, and the loss is only 5 million. If the order rises to 10 million...

.Even more, I'm afraid..." Wu Zhaopu said worriedly.

Everyone in the conference room took a deep breath. If the order really rises to tens of millions, or even more, it may not be good news for the "second world".

What to do? - Everyone looked at Lin Feng. A temporary price increase will undoubtedly ruin the brand name just launched, and will give other companies the opportunity to add insult to injury, but it is not a problem to continue losing money like this. Of course, this is not the "Second World"

If you can't afford to lose, even if you can afford to lose hundreds of millions of yuan, just think of it as gaining fame.

But China is a populous country, with a population of 1.3 billion and about 340 million households. If half of those households buy "smart" computers... Wu Zhaopu gets dizzy when he thinks of this possibility.

Abby and others shook their heads, helpless. They didn't pay much attention for a moment.

"We will continue to sell at this price, and we will take the opportunity to break out the cost and tell all parents who want to buy computers that we are here to promote education and improve the quality of students, not to make money." Lin Feng said calmly, looking out of the corner of his eyes.

A cunning spiritual light flashed across the room.

"What about the cost?" Wu Zhaopu was stunned when he heard this. If this advertisement were put out, I'm afraid more parents would come to order computers. If they sell them at a loss, the Chinese will definitely rush to buy them.

Don't take advantage of the bastard! - This is a wise saying in China.

"Haha, I never planned to make money by selling 'smart' computers from the beginning, otherwise our prices would not be set so low." Lin Fengxiao said.

"Ah~~~" Everyone was surprised. Originally, everyone calculated the benefits that mass production can bring. After all, the quotation of "Foxconn" is for an order of one million. If it is an order of ten million, a "smart" computer

The cost can be reduced to around 2,540 yuan, and after deducting related expenses, there is still a profit of nearly 20 yuan. Although the profit is very thin, it makes small profits but quick turnover, and it earns reputation.
