Jing Tian wore the school uniform of Beiwu Middle School and carried a schoolbag on her shoulders. She trotted all the way, following closely behind her classmates.
"Oh, Tiantian, if you run faster, people will snatch up all the CDs if you're late!"
Shuying spread her legs and walked hastily.
The streets, alleys, hair salons and supermarkets the three of them passed through were filled with songs from "Meteor Garden", especially the most popular "Meteor Shower".
"Watch the meteor shower with you, falling on this earth,
Let your tears fall on my shoulders..."
The lyrical and soft melody not only did not discourage Jingtian, but instead filled her whole body with motivation.
Gritting her teeth, she took on the energy of sprinting for 100 meters and walked north to south, visiting one store after another on Xidan Cultural Street. As a result, all the VCDs of "Meteor Garden" in the booths and showcases were sold out.
So far, "Meteor Garden" has been banned one after another across the country, from provincial TV stations to local municipal channels.
But teenagers can't help but want to watch it. After all, this kind of Mary Sue drama is unprecedented. It is not a bloody Qiong Yao drama or a tragic sea banquet drama. Girls all imagine that they are Shancai and Prince Charming is one of the F4.
"Huhuhu~"
Jing Tian stood at the door of Xidan Audio and Video World, half-bent, with his hands on his knees, out of breath.
Shuying wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "Meimei, Tiantian, if it's not here yet, let's go back to school."
The three little ones held hands, climbed up the stairs, and entered the huge audio and video city side by side. They saw display racks in the lobby, with posters of "Meteor Garden" on the left and right, reminding customers of the area where CDs and cassettes were placed.
Jing Tian excitedly ran to the shelf. The VCD was on the most conspicuous shelf. When they saw the price, the three of them were dumbfounded.
A set of 20 discs, 80 yuan.
"Are you mistaken that it's so expensive?" Meimei pouted.
"No wonder it's still in stock!" Shuying agreed.
The words he said were so careless that the passers-by immediately hesitated and were in a dilemma.
The clerk was excited and quickly raised his voice to clarify:
"Little sister, do you know that "Meteor Garden" can no longer be seen on TV! Of course, this disc will not sell for the same price as before, it will only be more expensive in the future!"???..Com
“That’s expensive too!”
Suddenly, a fair-skinned girl with a swan neck walked out of the crowd, slim and elegant.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
The clerk refused to admit it, "On the contrary, the price of our VCDs has dropped. It used to cost 140 yuan a set. Now it is rumored that VCDs will be stopped. So there is a huge price reduction and dumping. After this village, this store will no longer exist."
As soon as he finished speaking, the customers who had hesitated to buy immediately took the discs and left. In the blink of an eye, 8 sets were missing from the shelves.
"what to do?"
Jing Tian pinched the shoulder strap of her schoolbag, and the other two friends were also confused.
"Primary school girls, are you from Beiwu Middle School?" The swan-necked woman smiled.
"Sister, are you too?" Jing Tian blinked.
"That's right. I'm from Beiwu. My name is Liu Shishi."
Liu Shishi introduced himself and got to know each other. He smiled on his slightly baby-fat face and reminded them softly: "You must consume wisely."
Then, at the urging of her best friend, she waved and left.
"Goodbye, sister."
Jing Tian also waved and looked at Shuying, the backbone, and saw her gritting her teeth and saying that all the girls in the class had collected their money and had come, so they couldn't leave empty-handed.
So, they took the whole set and went to the checkout counter obediently. The line was long and chaotic, crowded with people, and chattered around.
"Hey, do you want to buy it or not?"
“If you don’t want to buy, don’t wait in line, there are many people behind you!”
In the midst of the commotion, a high-pitched female voice broke out.
"I won't buy it!"
Yang Mi stood at the front, facing the cashier, waving the mobile phone in her hand, which displayed the text message of "Flying Purchase Home Pass"——
["Meteor Garden" genuine VCD, 40 yuan for the whole set, early purchase of 100,000 sets, first come first served, the first 10,000 buyers will receive an F4 poster for free]
The cashier and store clerk also saw the content and their eyes widened.
2 yuan a disc, it’s even cheaper than pirated copies.
nnd, ruin the place!
…………
Everyone in the work area of Hailong Building is very busy.
Lu Fei pulled down the vertical blinds and turned around. Liu Yudong and Xu Lei were sitting on the left and right sides of the sofa, with more or less smiles on their faces.
"What luck!"

[Reading updates are slow to load, there are ads, and chapters are incomplete. Please exit Reading and read again!]

Xu Lei smiled from ear to ear, "Last time, "Shaolin Football" was banned, and this time it's "Meteor Garden". God is helping us, and there is nothing we can do to stop it."
emm, am I not God?
Lu Fei's expression remained unchanged, and he quickly glanced at the sales statistics for the first half of the day. The popularity of "Meteor Garden" will undoubtedly drive all aspects of Feigou.com.
Even for 40 yuan, more than 5,000 sets were sold.
But don't look at the hot sales. Individual users buy very little. Most of them are video stores and rental stores. If you eat this batch and sell it back, you can make a profit from the price difference.
It is equivalent to actively becoming a scalper.
The e-commerce platform is actually the largest middleman. The traditional sales and purchase route is: manufacturer-general distributor-distributor-physical store.
There are several levels of price increases in between, because the prices are not open and transparent and are all borne by the customer. Feigou.com simplifies these links and eliminates these middlemen.
There is no middleman to make the difference, only me!
Therefore, if you dare to sell for 40 yuan, not only will you not lose money, but you will also make a profit of about 8 yuan. For 100,000 sets, the total profit will be 800,000, although the agent will still have to share it.
Moreover, relying on the popularity brought by "Meteor Garden", another wave of shopping frenzy was triggered.
"Old Xu, the Optoelectronics ban bans TV, does it also ban online sales?"
"It can't be banned. How can Optoelectronics have the power? This is under the control of the Audio and Video Department of the General Information Administration."
Xu Lei crossed his legs and patted his thigh proudly, "I asked my buddy to ask Director Wang, there will be no ban on sales at all, don't worry."
"That's great, we can definitely counterattack eBay!"
Liu Edong dismissed his worries and rubbed his hands excitedly, "I want to ban us for promotion and express delivery, but in the end, business matters!"
"Old Xu, remember to find a few media outlets to report this."
Lu Fei put the statistics table on the table, "The battle doesn't need to be too big. We should also make a list of the webmasters who have cooperated with us for a long time this time, and pay them to do a team building and travel around. Thank you very much." ."
"I'll make arrangements."
Xu Lei understood this and took advantage of the opportunity of team building to join forces with Feigou.com to form a webmaster advertising alliance to compete with Tesco.
"Headong, keep an eye on Lai Haisong and other logistics, and never miss any financing opportunities."
In terms of express delivery, Lu Fei is prepared with both hands. He must not only operate self-operated express delivery, but also establish a logistics alliance, b2c and c2c business, and keep the same.
Liu Edong strongly agrees. If there is self-operated logistics, b2c must open up new businesses. The current Jingdong Mall only has 3C digital products such as mobile phones and computers, books and audiovisuals, and virtual recharges, which is far from enough.
"Several MP3 and home appliance manufacturers have contacted me and hope to discuss cooperation in person."
"mp3?"
Lu Fei touched his chin and said, "Add one more, add some medical supplies."
"Medical care?" Liu Edong was stunned, "A large pharmacy?"
Lu Fei said: "That's what comes later. Let's start with the basics. Noon tea, isatis root, masks, medical kits, etc., especially masks, disinfectant, and disinfectant alcohol. We need to buy more."
Xu Lei and Liu Edong looked at each other in confusion, unable to understand the big mystery inside.
Lu Fei remained silent. It was 2002, not far from 2003.
In this way, there is a reasonable reason to stockpile a large amount of medical supplies, whether to support donations when the time comes, or to keep prices at a low price. In short, we are not seeking money.
………
The meeting of the Big Three ended, and Tao Yao brought a package.
Beautifully packaged and shipped from the United States.
Lu Fei opened it and saw that it contained a letter and three identical books, which were of course "The World is Flat" co-written with Friedman.
"Hey, your book is finally going to be published?" Xu Lei asked with interest.
Lu Fei flipped through it casually and saw that it was all in English. Then he threw it to Xu Lei and read Friedman's letter on his own.
There is very little content. It only says that it is a proof copy, which is the final proof, and it will be ready for printing within two weeks.
"This copy will be handed over to Beijing University Publishing House for review and revision. This copy will be mailed to Carlyle Capital's ancestor. I promised to let him write the preface."
"Why did you ask him to write the preface?"
Xu Lei frowned, "At least find someone in the IT industry, like Mr. Liu..."
God is looking for Liu Chuanzhi.
Lu Fei suddenly became playful and said jokingly: "Friedman has asked Bill Gates to write a preface."
"Fuck, really?!"
Xu Lei, Tao Yao and others were all shocked.
"I'm kidding!" Lu Fei spread his hands.
Xu Lei curled his lips, "This is not a joke."
Lu Fei closed the letter with a mysterious smile on his lips.
