Chapter 382 If you want to purchase goods, just dream about it
Now is not the time when they begged Zeng Yi to supply them with VCDs, but now is the time when Zeng Yi should beg them!
Under such circumstances, you actually dare to raise the price. You are crazy.
Pan Zi was still in shock and didn't respond for a long time, while Zeng Yi on the other end of the phone continued to talk regardless.
"By the way, Boss Pan.
Please help me inform other dealers about this matter.
If you want to purchase it, the unit price will be 4,500 yuan from now on."
Only then did Pan Zi react. He resisted the urge to curse and said through gritted teeth.
"Okay... okay, I will definitely tell you!"
After hanging up the phone, Pan Zi slapped the phone on the table and said angrily.
"Everyone, do you know the situation?
Zeng Yi really went too far in bullying others."
Pan Zi’s words were also recognized by other digital dealers.
In the eyes of these local digital dealers, they are the first-class existence of Gao Zengyi and others. They are the only ones who take advantage. There is no argument that these foreigners are raising prices.
Now that Zeng Yi wants to increase the price, naturally a group of arrogant dealers cannot accept it.
Soon, a boss responded angrily.
“This market is not limited to products from Zeng Yi and his family.
From now on, we will refuse to accept goods from Xiuyi and start exclusively accepting goods from Hongbiao!"
"You're right, dare to raise the price! I want Zeng Yi to finally beg us to buy his goods at a low price and let him know who is the leader of this market!"
Of course, some people quickly refuted these words.
"But that Hongbiao is not a good guy. I just found out that he is still secretly buying shops in Shanghai and planning to build a digital dealership."
"Our cooperation with him is undoubtedly seeking skin from a tiger."
Hearing everyone's concerns, Pan Zi smiled dismissively.
"If we locals unite together, we can still let his ambitious people open the shops.
Besides, if only digital stores were so easy to open.
Manufacturers of major VCD and Walkman brands have already opened stores all over the country."
"If you ask me, if people from Hongbiao want to open a direct-operated store and steal our business, that's just wishful thinking."
"Besides, on the market now, only Hongbiao and Xiuyi's VCDs are popular. If we don't buy Hongbiao products, where else can we buy them?"
Pan Zi's words also silenced many digital dealers.
Because what Pan Zi said is right.
Even if they are annoyed that Hongbiao wants to open a digital dealership to steal their business, they have no better choice in this situation.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Pan Zi also hurriedly comforted everyone.
"Don't worry, everyone, what if Hongbiao wants to open a digital dealership?
Not to mention whether he can drive it.
Even if he does start driving, it will take a long time to succeed."
"Let's lower the price now and make all the money in the VCD market. No matter what store he opens by then, it's none of our business."
After a few words of comfort, Pan Zi didn't care anymore and called Huang Mao directly.
After the call was connected, Pan Zi hurriedly coughed and said politely.
"Hey, Brother Huangmao, I'm Pan Zi!"
"I have good news for you, your Hongbiao VCD sales are pretty good these days.
I'm short of a batch of goods here, can you send me twenty units?"
On the other end of the phone, Huang Mao said without hesitation, patting his chest.
"No problem, Boss Pan, I will ask the salesperson to deliver the goods to your store in the afternoon."
Hearing Huang Mao's reply, Pan Zi's hanging heart finally relaxed.
He smiled and looked at the surrounding dealers. Fortunately, there was no accident on Huang Mao's side, otherwise he would have been in trouble.
Then, Pan Zi deliberately pretended to be angry and said.
"Brother Huangmao, you really don't know. I heard that Xiuyi is planning to lower the price of their VCDs by dozens of yuan, in order to completely compete with you."
"Xiuyi actually lowered the price again?"
Huang Mao said doubtfully.
Pan Zi seized the opportunity and continued to scold Zeng Yi and the others.
“Yes, yes, it’s too much, and we dealers can’t stand it anymore.
"So we decided to purchase it at your previous price of 4,000 yuan per unit.
It doesn’t matter whether you make money or not, the main thing is not to let this Xiuyi vcd mess up the market.”
But when Pan Zi finished speaking, Huang Mao on the other end of the phone shook his head.
"Oh, then you misunderstood.
What I mean is that the raw materials for VCD have increased in price now, and they actually lowered the price. Isn’t this a loss-making business?”
"But I'm not that stupid, so starting from today, the shipping price of Hongbiao VCDs will increase to 4,600. By the way, Boss Pan, how many units did you just say you wanted?"
Pan Zi:……
"Sorry, Brother Huangmao, I suddenly remembered that I seem to have found some unsold Hongbiao VCDs in my store. How about I come back to purchase them next time?"
After saying that, Pan Zi hung up the phone as if running for his life.
Soon the faces of the dealers present turned extremely pale.
After learning that the price of Xiuyi VCD had increased, they initially hoped to get the goods from Hongbiao.
But now, even Hongbiao has increased its price, and it has increased even more than Xiuyi VCD.
"what is going on?
Xiuyi's price has increased, and Hongbiao's has also increased its price. Aren't the two of them unwilling to deal with it?
Why has the price of Uni-President increased?”
One boss said angrily.
Then someone frowned and replied.
“Is it possible that the price of raw materials has really increased?
Last time I heard one of their salesmen say that their VCDs are actually made from the same production technology and come from the same place."
“If that’s the case, then it’s understandable that they would raise the price.
And if you compare it like this.
Xiuyi only got a five hundred yuan raise, so he seems quite conscientious."
Hearing these words, Pan Zi's heart was bleeding.
Their sales signs are all up, and the price is still 4,999.
Now that the purchase price has gone up, that means their profits have been greatly compressed.
And in this situation, both Hongbiao and Xiuyi have increased their prices. No matter whose products they buy, they will lose money.
Pan Zi was furious. At this moment, he wanted to persuade everyone to unite and stop buying their products, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.
Because Pan Zi knew very well that this was simply impossible.
Human nature is like this. Even if profits are squeezed by Hongbiao and Xiuyi, as long as there is still money to be made, they cannot unite together.
In the end, he could only sigh, "If it doesn't work, we can only go to Zeng Yi's Xiuyi VCD."
"But remember these two foreigners, if they dare to trick us, sooner or later we have to show them some color."
Even though he said harsh words, Pan Zi's face was still extremely ugly.
During this period, they were bent on lowering prices and did not purchase goods at all. Now the VCDs in the store have basically been sold out.
So in the current situation, they have to purchase goods even if they don’t want to.
However, Pan Zi just rejected Zeng Yi, so this time he had to call another dealer.
Soon, the digital dealer responsible for contact dialed Zeng Yi's phone number.
"Boss Zeng, hello, hello.
It’s like this, I want to order ten VCDs in my store, but Pan Zi said the price has increased, right?”
"Don't worry, we support you, and I will pay you later."
Have you restocked this time?
Zeng Yi on the other end of the phone raised his eyebrows and sneered.
