"I didn't expect that the old fox Gan Wenshan would also arrange for someone to come and gather information!"
"But I'm not afraid, just wait for your employees to give me money!"
Liu Fei and the other three returned to the sixth floor in an instant and met Dong Zhijie.
"How's it going?"
The three of them answered truthfully, especially when they submitted their price list, Dong Zhijie was shocked on the spot.
"What?
It’s so cheap, so he’s making a profit at a loss, right?”
Even though Dong Zhijie didn't believe it, he still had to report the news to his boss Gan Wenshan as soon as possible.
"Is there such a thing?
It seems that this Chu Tianyao is really not simple!"
Gan Wenshan silently calculated in his mind that at least from now on, Chu Tianyao was already in an invincible position in terms of price.
After all, this is the only store Chu Tianyao has to bear.
If he is willing, he can lower the current price again. Anyway, Chu Tianyao's cost is very low.
But for Gan Wenshan, who runs the Menglong Cinema in Nuo Da, it is impossible for him to follow suit.
"How about we also lower the price?"
After Dong Zhijie finished speaking, Gan Wenshan was making more comprehensive considerations.
"Reducing prices is one thing, we can package it in better terms."
"More importantly, we need to arrange for a more professional person to go to their store for a tour."
"We have to find some loopholes!"
Dong Zhijie understood that Gan Wenshan had to prepare on both sides, so he immediately volunteered to take over the task.
"I understand, boss, don't worry, just leave these two tasks to me!"
"Then I'm waiting for your good news."
After hanging up the phone, Dong Zhijie rushed to the advertising department of Menglong Cinema without stopping to convey the boss's order.
It only took other colleagues less than half a day to complete the planning and implementation of the promotional activities.
“Although it’s not as cheap as the store downstairs, our main focus is style!”
"This is a good idea!"
Dong Zhijie found that since he could not compete with Chu Tianyao in the price war, he could start from other aspects.
He created a series of advertising campaigns that deliberately packaged going to the theater as a choice for the upper class.
Using VCDs to watch movies is obviously a daily consumption that only ordinary people have.
In this way, Dong Zhijie cleverly divided the consumer groups.
Even if most of them are ordinary people and poor people, they will temporarily become VCD users, but they are not loyal either.
While they were using VCDs, they also had fantasies about the Menglong Cinema upstairs.
As long as consumers are not allowed to develop user stickiness to VCD, Chu Tianyao will have no way to increase the price, and will not be able to make a profit and will continue to lose money!
On the other hand, Dong Zhijie found that the customer flow had picked up after the new advertisement was put out, and he immediately found another professional.
"Manager Dong, what do you want from me?"
Chen Fangping walked up to Dong Zhijie with a smile on his face.
"Old Chen, you are also an old projectionist here. You know more about movies than I do."
"A very competitive company is downstairs. You have to help us find out. Do you understand?"
Chen Fangping nodded seriously after listening, then changed into casual clothes and went downstairs.
What Dong Zhijie said is true. Chen Fangping has been engaged in this industry for at least ten years.
But even so, when Chen Fangping saw a VCD that could watch a movie so conveniently for the first time, he felt the impact of technology on him.
"If this becomes popular, who will come to theaters to watch movies in the future?"
Chen Fangping muttered to himself and then continued to wander around the store.
He turned around several times and finally found a suspicious point that could make a fuss.
"Sorry, I stepped on your foot."
When Chen Fangping turned around, someone stepped on his foot and was apologizing to him.
Chen Fangping didn't say anything at that time because he felt that the guy was still some distance away from him, and he felt that the other person's stepping on his feet was intentional.
So Chen Fangping asked subconsciously.
"Brother, I feel like you did it on purpose?"
"You are so far away from me and you can step on my feet?
Then there’s something wrong with your eyes!”
I didn’t expect that the other party was such a nice gentleman, so I had to explain it to Chen Fangping.
"Brother, don't be angry. My eyes are fine. It's just that I'm a little sore from squatting in this store for nearly a whole day today."
"I'm really sorry, I can't apologize to you!"
As he spoke, the other party reached out and handed over a cigarette.
It was his words that instantly caught Chen Fangping's attention.
"You mean, if you look at this VCD all day long, your eyes will get sore and you won't be able to see clearly?"
"Yes, but then again, there's nothing strange about it, right?
What have you been staring at all day without feeling tired?"
When the other party saw Chen Fangping's change of attitude, he knew that he must have lost his temper, so he turned around and left.
Chen Fangping raised a slight sneer at the corner of his mouth and asked several people in succession.
Those who have stayed here for a long time basically have this symptom.
"Humph, haven't you found the problem now?"
Chen Fangping returned to the sixth floor and reported the situation to Dong Zhijie.
"Old Chen really has you, it's really different when a professional like this takes action!"
"Then we can make a big fuss from here!"
Dong Zhijie also understood what Chen Fangping meant and reached out to pat him on the shoulder.
"Manager Dong, you must confuse the concept of time when the time comes. Everyone who watches VCDs has eye problems."
"Don't worry, I'm a professional!"
"You go back first. Once I defeat this competitor, I will personally go to the boss to take credit for you!"
Chen Fangping nodded and returned to his job. Dong Zhijie conveyed the information to Gan Wenshan for the second time.
"Boss, I think this is a good example. We must seize this opportunity!"
"You must know that the people in Hong Kong today, even if they are ordinary people and poor people, still attach great importance to good health!"
Gan Wenshan nodded in agreement, obviously approving Dong Zhijie's plan.
"I understand what you mean. I will immediately contact several newspapers and media to publicize this matter."
"At least let this concept circulate within our mall first!"
"I want to see what else this Chu Tianyao can do!"
Chu Tianyao stared here for two consecutive days and found that the business in the store was getting more and more popular.
Although I kept the price very low, the final sales were not high.
But Chu Tianyao doesn't care about this at all for the time being.
After all, his original intention was to lose less money at this stage. Now that he is still making profits, Chu Tianyao is naturally happy.
What he wants is to bring the habit of using VCDs to the people of Hong Kong through one store after another.
It's like everyone is not used to using mobile phones at first.
Once the habit becomes natural, even if Chu Tianyao does not increase the price, he will definitely make a lot of money.
"Mr. Chu, I have a problem I want to report to you."
"Speak directly if you have something to say."
Seeing the staff in the store taking the time to come over, Chu Tianyao looked very serious.
"Nowadays, our business is getting more and more popular, but many people also complain that there are too few types of discs."
"Can it be richer?"
Regarding this, Chu Tianyao had already anticipated this, but he didn't expect this day to come so quickly.
However, it can also be reflected from the side, how popular VCD is in this area today.
"I understand what you mean. Let's hold on for the next few days and tell customers that our disc types will be updated soon."
"Okay Mr. Chu."
The clerk returned to his job, and Chu Tianyao asked Long Si to take pictures of the hot scene in the store.
"Have you finished filming?"
Long Si nodded, and then Chu Tianyao continued.
"After the filming is completed, you can go and claim credit from the real boss!"
Chu Tianyao then contacted Zou Wenhuai and agreed on a time to meet with him.
Zou Wenhuai promised Chu Tianyao that he could come to him when he was free in the afternoon.
So Long Si immediately drove and took Chu Tianyao to Jiahe Film Company.
"Xiao Chu, do you have any good news for me today?"
"I just came back from the set. I'm really busy with business recently, so I didn't bother to check out how your business is doing."
After meeting him, Zou Wenhuai was still so gentle and elegant, like an old gentleman who is getting older.
Chu Tianyao immediately smiled back.
"It's okay, Mr. Zou, you don't have time for yourself. Didn't I come here specifically to report?"
"You'll know this just by looking at it."
Chu Tianyao burned the recorded video into a CD and then put it directly into the disc drive.
The picture became clear in a flash, and Zou Wenhuai saw the heated scene in the store.
"Is it so popular?
Okay, Xiao Chu, I really underestimated you earlier!"
After Zou Wenhuai finished speaking, Chu Tianyao quickly said insinuatingly.
"Actually, it's because there is a Dream Dragon Cinema on the sixth floor. If this guy didn't get in the way, my business here would only be even more prosperous."
After Chu Tianyao finished speaking, Zou Wenhuai was stunned for a moment.
