Chapter 358 The end of the road VS the unprecedented grand occasion
In metropolitan New York, Lisa knocked on the door and walked into the office and submitted a leave application to her superior.
Erin took a look at the application form and asked, "Are you going to visit relatives in the country?"
Since 1916, Bald Eagle has had the concept of annual leave.
At that time, a law passed by Congress stipulated that federal government employees could enjoy 15 days of annual leave each year, but it was not implemented in private companies.
However, after more than half a century of development, even private companies have begun to implement annual leave.
So it is relatively easy to ask for leave.
However, Lisa is a good employee. It’s the end of the year and she still has five days of annual leave.
For the bald eagle, which advocates enjoyment and freedom, this is a very incredible thing.
Eileen knew that Lisa didn't like parties very much, and usually went back to the country to visit relatives and parents during holidays.
That’s why I asked this question, and of course it was just a casual question.
When she asked, she had already picked up the pen and signed her name on Lisa's application form.
"Yes, I'm going back to the countryside to visit my relatives."
Lisa responded smoothly, but she was not going to the countryside to visit relatives, but was preparing to do something big.
After receiving leave approval, Lisa left the company.
Then go straight to the nearby Costco supermarket and go shopping there.
This supermarket opened near her home last year, and she has been a loyal customer since it opened.
Not only because the prices in supermarkets are cheap, but also the quality is very good.
In addition, every Friday night, the supermarket will regularly release some products that are close to the production date and put them on the expiry shelves.
The prices of these products are even lower and they have always been Lisa's favorite.
Every Friday after get off work, she would come to Costco Supermarket as soon as possible, and then rush to the last-minute shelf to pick out the products she wanted.
Because if you buy it, you will earn it.
Today is not Friday, but she is also prepared to bleed heavily.
Because she had to buy tents, food, water, flashlights, etc., and spent a lot of money to move the goods to the car, she rushed to the door of the PHS mobile phone store.
Sure enough, people have already started queuing up here.
What made her relieved was that there were not many people now, but she had to hurry up, otherwise, she would be further and further behind in the queue.
After finding a parking lot and parking her car, Lisa took her things to the back of the queue and began her two-day queuing career.
She had no choice but to work so hard to get the PHS phone number 2099.
At this price, it’s really delicious.
At the same time, many Costco supermarkets, Tesco supermarkets, etc. in Bald Eagle also welcomed many consumers.
Their purpose is very clear, tents, flashlights, food and water, etc., because they are also ready to line up.
If they want to grab the 2099 PHS cell phone, they have to do this.
Outside the supermarket, Sam Walton's facial features were almost distorted as he looked at the crowded store.
"Go, go back!"
Last year, he rejected an invitation to inject capital from an investment company registered in the Cayman Islands. Not long after, he saw that a new supermarket was about to open not far from nine Walmart supermarkets.
At that time, Sam was so angry that he wanted to hit someone.
However, the opponent is approaching with great force, and it seems that they have been prepared in advance. Many of the products on the shelves are very cheap.
He wanted to investigate the purchasing channels of Costco and Tesco supermarkets, but he couldn't find it.
Because people are too strict about keeping secrets.
First, Costco opened at least ten new supermarkets in many cities as soon as it started. It started in a money-splitting mode and its offensive was very fierce.
Many of Costco's management teams are basically from other competitors such as Woerma, as well as talents airborne from other places such as small islands in the south.
It can be said that it took at least two months of preparation to achieve such momentum.
Second, Costco and Tesco supermarkets share a logistics center.
The Cayman Islands investment company has established two large logistics centers on the Bald Eagle Continent, and this year it has added three more logistics centers.
A real rich man.
This style of play is not a clever one, but the effect is surprisingly good.
Walma and many other supermarkets were beaten so hard that they almost couldn't breathe.
However, Sam Walton soon discovered that Costco's business model was almost the same as that of Volma, but it was more innovative.
Sam immediately figured out that Volma's business model was completely feasible, but now it lacked funds, so it was difficult to move forward.
Therefore, he firmly believes that Woerma will be able to break out of the tight siege and slowly develop.
However, more than a year later, Costco has more than 80 branches in Bald Eagle, but Woerma has not yet broken through 15.
He went to find those investors, but the investors either opened their mouths and made him unable to accept investment, or they disliked him for being too conservative and were completely thrown away by the traders.
Not to mention, he also imitated other store operators' temporary food shelves and other traffic diversion strategies. The prices of many commodities are not as good as other stores' stores, so investors are not optimistic about it.
Although he encountered difficulties, Sam still didn't want to give up, and he had the momentum of becoming more courageous with every setback.
However, PHS mobile phones recently carried out a large Christmas price reduction promotion, but it diverted traffic to retail customers.
Maybe this wave of traffic will bring more new customers to the store. Sam feels that he needs to adjust his strategy and find a way to close the gap.
[An app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old book-chasing tool, used by all old bookworms
This matter has been reported by several newspapers.
Since so many people are paying attention to the PHS company and the sales of PHS mobile phones, it is naturally impossible for Sophia to remain indifferent.
In front of the long queue, the beautiful angel Sophia appeared in front of the camera and began her interview work.
From the front to the end of the team, Sophia interviewed more than fifty people in total, and spent a whole day here.
She spent more than ten or twenty times just to touch up her makeup.
She was so tired that her heels were bleeding.
Of course, the results are also very gratifying. After taking back so many interview materials, you can make a program.
However, she needs to carefully select and then cut out the best quality content to display in front of all audiences.
It's a pity that she failed to apply for aerial photography, otherwise, her interview video this time would be even more outstanding.
Unlike Sophia, New York's most famous police pioneer Tom, in response to this incident, went directly to the helicopter company and applied to rent a helicopter for half a day.
Tom is very willing to spend money because he knows that only by being willing to pay can he get better income.
According to his observations, the period from dusk to night is the best time for photography.
Taking a bird's-eye view of the city can definitely capture the most realistic and shocking scenes.
Therefore, at four o'clock in the afternoon, the helicopter took off from the building and began flying in Manhattan and other areas.
Tom, on the other hand, held the camera and started aerial photography while ensuring that the safety protection measures were tight.
Looking at the shocking scene from the camera, even the buzzing sound of the helicopter could not cover up his exclamation.
In the picture, three or four long queues appeared in Manhattan, almost two to three kilometers in length, like a slender little snake, which was very shocking.
In the afterglow of the setting sun, helicopters flew over the spacious streets and shuttled between the buildings.
"Fly a little lower, Farke, a little lower"
Tom shouted angrily, and the helicopter captain directly made a gesture to ask for more money.
An angry Tom screamed, and then reluctantly took out a five hundred US dollar knife from his pocket and gave it to the other party.
Flying at low altitude between buildings is very dangerous. Although the captain often does this, there are not many opportunities for extra money like now.
Therefore, it’s a good idea to earn a little more.
And the captain also knows that people like Tom will only make more money.
I heard that many people sell news videos, especially those exclusive first-hand videos, which can sell for tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Absolutely terrifying.
Otherwise, Tom wouldn't be able to drive a supercar.
Starting from the low-altitude flight, the pictures in the camera become even more exciting.
Tom laughed loudly, saying whatever he said this time would make the TV station bleed.
On the ground, at the entrance of the specialty store, Lisa was nestled in her tent, chatting with the people in front and behind her from time to time.
The reporter who passed by just now was really beautiful, and Lisa herself was interviewed.
She just talked about her situation very excitedly. After the interview, she remembered that if her colleagues in her company saw it, especially her boss Eileen, would they laugh at her?
Because she lied!
Therefore, she could only hope that the reporter Sophia would delete her interview video and not appear on the TV station.
Suddenly, Lisa had no idea that she had been on the morning news video, nor did she know that her boss had seen the news replay during lunch.
Lisa has now been interviewed by a reporter from another TV station. Yesterday and today, interviews here were very frequent.
The clerk in the specialty store looked helplessly at the consumers at the door.
These people are unwilling to come in now because buying a PHS phone now costs the original price of US$3,999.
After 8 o'clock tomorrow morning, the price will drop by three percent
Thousands of feet, comes to the price of 2,099 US dollars.
There is a difference of 1,900 dollars between the two, and any fool knows how to choose.
The film purchasing director of the radio and television station looked at Tom in front of him with helplessness on his face.
The film purchasing director has already watched the video that Tom handed over. It is very exciting and it is also first-hand information. It is of great value for tonight's evening news.
If the TV station makes such a video by itself, firstly, it will be too late. Secondly, it will be very difficult for the TV station to apply for aerial photography.
Tomorrow is the first day of the PHS company's price reduction event. It's already six o'clock in the afternoon, and it's completely impossible to take a shocking picture like Tom's.
Therefore, the film purchasing director wanted this video very much, but Tom Lion opened his mouth and directly shouted a high price of fifty thousand dollars.
It's very high, and it's very painful, but the film purchasing director doesn't want to let it go, and he doesn't want to pay such a high price.
The two sides were in a stalemate for several minutes. When Tom saw this, he picked up the video materials and prepared to leave.
As a result, the film purchasing director couldn't resist the temptation and bought the video.
Of course, you need to sign an exclusive agreement with Tom.
Otherwise, after Tom went out, he resold the video materials to other TV stations, and the film purchasing director would be in a loss.
Because of the price reduction activity of PHS mobile phones, more people were carnival.
It seems that this is no longer just an activity of PHS Company, but more people are participating.
In the New York headquarters of PHS, Zhou Jimin sat on a chair in the conference room, listening to Liang Wenfeng's report.
I learned that the current situation of PHS mobile phones is all normal. Newspapers and TV stations currently monitoring the situation are all positive reports, as well as magazines, small newspapers, and specialty stores, etc., all are unprecedented scenes.
Zhou Jimin nodded and suddenly asked about Woerma's situation.
After proposing to develop Tesco and Costco last year, he only focused on his two supermarkets, but did not care about the life and death of Volma.
