Chapter 546: "Only Sell the Expensive" and "Don't Pit the Poor"!
Cao Changbo was taken to the police station and detained for five days.
The moment he walked out of the police station, he subconsciously used his hands to block the dazzling sunlight.
Embarrassed scum, melancholy eyes.
It's nice to be free!
The air outside was fresh and I never thought the sun would be so warm.
A Bentley was parked on the side of the road, and Bao Tong squatted on the side of the car smoking mosquito coils.
After seeing Cao Changbo appear, he stepped on the mosquito coil, stepped forward, and smiled at him: "Have you suffered these days? Mr. Guo, I came to pick you up." ”
Cao Changbo was instantly moved and sat in the co-pilot.
Guo Yan clasped her hands to her chest and took off her sunglasses.
"Next time I do it to Qiao Zhi, I have to say it in advance, so we can discuss. ”
Cao Changbo smiled bitterly: "I'm sorry, I smeared Cuiyan." ”
Guo Yan smiled lightly: "You can't mention the smear! You just handed over a piece of information, and Tian Qing is the key person who spreads rumors." If nothing else, I am afraid that I will not be able to return to China in this life, and once I enter the country, I will be arrested, not to mention a few years in prison. Your methods are very creative and beautiful, and you have borrowed a knife to kill people, and although you have been found guilty, you have only been detained for a few days. ”
didn't expect Tian Qing's fate to be so miserable, Cao Changbo frowned and said, "Tian Qing's fate is so serious?"
Qiao Zhi hired a lawyer, and celebrities who had been attacked by Tian Qing before also joined forces to launch a class action lawsuit against Tian Qing, Tian Qing was very miserable this time, he originally wanted to gain popularity, but now Weibo has been blocked. Guo Yan said with emotion.
Cao Changbo's eyes showed a cold color, "Qiao Zhi is really ruthless." ”
Guo Yan sighed, "You originally hoped to damage Qiao Zhi's character image through this incident, but you were cleverly used by Qiao Zhi. His book is now a bestseller on the Internet, and all major bookstores are out of stock. ”
If he was hit hard, Cao Changbo's face turned pale.
Guo Yan comforted: "Don't be discouraged, at least you try to deal with him, you can be regarded as a man." ”
Cao Changbo was speechless.
Is Guo Yan praising herself, or is she scolding herself?
Stealing chickens doesn't make rice!
originally hoped to plot a conspiracy to discredit Qiao Zhi.
Who would have thought that Qiao Zhi would cleverly take advantage of this matter and promote the recipe he had just published.
"Qiao Gang's Pregnancy Dog Food Recipe" has been warmed up for several weeks, and sales have soared.
After the second batch of 50,000 copies, the publisher added 300,000 copies.
In the era when physical publishing has been dismal and withdrawn, 370,000 copies have been printed in just three or four months, which is already a very astonishing achievement.
Someone helped Qiao Zhi calculate the manuscript fee.
Fifty-eight yuan per volume, the author takes 7 to 8 percent.
If all the 370,000 copies can be sold, the manuscript fee can reach about 1.7 million, and after deducting personal income tax, it will definitely be more than 1 million.
Qiao Zhi didn't expect that publishing a recipe would have such an unexpected gain.
When the publishing house took the initiative to sign the second "Qiao Gang Leader Dragon and Phoenix Fetal Baby Cookbook" with Qiao Zhi, he agreed without any hesitation.
The share of the manuscript fee has also risen, to 12 percent.
In addition to the big sales of new books, the data of self-media accounts and Qiao's helpmaster APP have increased significantly.
Of course, the outside world also questioned Qiao Zhi at the beginning.
felt that Qiao Zhi and Tian Qing joined forces to sing a double reed.
However, after the notice of Tian Qing's investigation was issued, the conspiracy theory was self-defeating.
Tian Qing, a fake guard who was shouted and beaten by everyone like a rat crossing the street, was not caught because he was hiding abroad for the time being, but he finally exposed his ugly mask and was very happy.
Qiao Zhi received a call from Mr. Yan Bo, the editor of the publishing house.
"Mr. Qiao, I would like to make an appointment with you, we will come to the signing meeting at Qiongjin International Book City this weekend to see if you have time to participate!" Yan Bo
smiled.
Qiao Zhi frowned and declined politely, "Is there a signing meeting?" It makes me feel a little weak, if no one is there, wouldn't I be very embarrassed." ”
Yan Bo smiled dumbly, "You are too modest. With your current sales, you are already one of the best-selling authors in China, but I am afraid that there will be too many people participating in the event, and you will not be able to sign up for the event time. ”
Book signings are held, which are regular events.
There will be a second new book in the later stage, which needs to be taken care of by the publishing house.
I didn't want to, but I had to take part in it.
Otherwise, the publisher will think that your shelves are too big to get along with.
"Okay. Then it's ten o'clock this Sunday morning, will the time be too tight?" Qiao Zhi sorted out the itinerary in his mind.
"Well, that's great. Teacher Qiao, I'll arrange it now. Although the time is short and the publicity time left for us is very short, I am confident that with your appeal, the event will definitely be a complete success. Yan Bo said excitedly.
Although Qiao Zhi is not an entertainment star, his popularity during this period of time is bursting, and the signing will definitely have a good effect.
Qiao Zhi called Zhou Chong and asked him to release the news of this weekend's signing through his self-media account.
Zhou Chong smiled: "Can it be broadcast live then? Not surprisingly, many fans will be interested." ”
Qiao Zhi nodded in approval: "Your sense of smell for the show has become much more sensitive. ”
Zhou Chong remembered one thing, "Longquan Knife Factory asked to record a video before, and after sending it out, it aroused the desire of many fans, and they all wanted to buy a set of such knives." Now there are knockoffs on the Internet. ”
The video shows an old blacksmith constantly striking the blade with a hammer.
I didn't expect a handmade knife to have such a big appeal.
It cannot be said that young people abandon traditional culture, but it can only be said that traditional culture should find a way to integrate modern elements to attract the attention of young people.
Qiao Zhi has signed a contract with the knife factory to produce Qiao Gang Master series knives by the knife factory, and the order is provided by Qiao Gang Owner.
This is the equivalent of an OEM cooperation.
"It's time to release pre-sale information! The number of orders reaches 1,000, and then it will be reported to the knife factory for production. Qiao Zhi said.
Zhou Chong said cautiously: "Isn't the price too high? A set of knives is 4,008 yuan, which is a bit too scary." ”
Qiao Zhi said: "How much is the most expensive set of German Superman knives?"
"I checked, and it seems to be close to four thousand. Zhou Chong said.
In the business competition environment where everyone is fighting a price war, Qiao Zhi's operation ideas are simply a clear stream.
A set of knives can be bought for two or three hundred yuan on the market, but Qiao Zhi has to sell it for 4,008 yuan, can it really be sold?
Zhou Chong is a rich second generation and is relatively numb to money.
Hearing this price, my eyebrows couldn't help jumping.
Qiao Zhi smiled: "So you lack self-confidence. Too little confidence in our national manufacturing process. Why are German knives so expensive, but there is still a market! Not because of how many black technologies their knives have, but because of the branding. Since we want to be the periphery of Qiao's gang leader, we must maintain a consistent style and only sell expensive ones (not pit the poor)!"
The eyes cast on Qiao Zhi had a touch of admiration.
What a confident man!
Zhou Chong was suspicious and asked the team to upload these two messages to the official account.
Soon a chemical reaction was caused.
Qiao Zhi's signing party caused a strong response from fans, and many people signed up to participate.
As for the pre-sale advertisement of Qiao's gang master's knives, it attracted a lot of scolding.
Of course, the scolding is also mixed with unwavering support.
"A set of knives sells for 4,008 yuan, isn't it outrageous?
It's even more expensive!"
"Is there a dog upstairs that worships foreign people? Why are German knives more expensive than those from Huaxia? Can't Huaxia make good knives?"
"Qiao Zhi has started cutting leeks again! 4008 yuan, it's really ruthless! I estimate the cost of a few hundred yuan!"
"Brother, haven't you watched the promotional video? Each knife is a handicraft made by a veteran blacksmith who has struck a thousand times with a hammer and burned it more than ten times at a high temperature. Handmade, it not only has the LOGO of Qiao's gang leader, but also the private name, which has collectible value. ”
"Do you want to help you calculate an account? Now a mobile phone costs six or seven thousand, to say the least, and it has to be replaced every two years on average. And a knife can last at least five or six years, on average only a few hundred dollars per year. And knives are the soul of the kitchen, and it is too cost-effective to spend more than 4,000 to buy a set of handmade knives. ”
Zhou Chong discovered a strange phenomenon.
The netizens who spray each other on the Internet are all lip-talkers.
Loyal fans have already started paying the fees......
Many of Joe's fans are house-cooks, and they spend a lot of time in the kitchen.
For them, the quality of the knives affects the kitchen experience.
For the price of a set of high-end cosmetics, you can buy a set of kitchen equipment at hand, is this excessive?
At around nine o'clock in the evening, Zhou Chong got statistics from the staff.
Within six hours of the advertisement, the number of orders exceeded 1,000 and the sales reached more than 4 million.
got this data, Zhou Chong was very skeptical of life.
It can only be said that with enough popularity, it becomes very simple to make money.
Of course, not all fans have such a large purchasing power.
Why does the horse boss, who loves Taowang, shoot women's sycophants on various occasions?
Qiao Zhi's fan base is dominated by women, most of whom have financial control in the family and are the group with the strongest spending power.
Qiao Zhi was also taken aback when he received a call from Zhou Chong.
Although this matter was temporary, it had to be taken seriously, and he hurriedly called the director of the tool factory.
"Director Du, the plan of the Qiao Gang Master series of tools I talked to you about before needs to be changed. Qiao Zhi said in a serious tone.
Thinking that it was going to fail, Du Liang frowned and said hurriedly: "Boss Qiao, our contracts have been signed, do you want to change the plan now?"
Qiao Zhi patiently explained: "We just advertised, and the number of orders reached 1,000 within a few hours, with the level of your factory, how long will it take to deliver?"
Du Liang was stunned and said: "The process of forging kitchen knives by hand is very complicated, with the current number of workers in our factory, we can only deliver up to 100 ...... a day."
Qiao Zhi knew that the scale of the Duliang factory could only be regarded as medium, and said patiently: "I hope you can gather the masters of other factories and strive to increase the output to three hundred." In addition, we are willing to triple the cost per knife. ”
Du Liang was still hesitating, but when he heard that Qiao Zhi took the initiative to raise the price, his mood instantly improved.
"No problem. ”
"However, the quality of the workmanship ......"
"Please rest assured! I, Du Liang, swear in the name of the family to ensure that each knife leaves the factory without any quality problems. ”
Qiao Zhi didn't pick a cooperative factory at random.
The Du family is a family of four generations of blacksmiths.
The knife factory evolved from a blacksmith shop and has been inherited for more than 100 years.
Qiao Zhi discussed the details with Du Liang.
Increasing daily production capacity is not the key.
The key is to improve the quality of the product!
Your own pricing is so high, the quality must not be bad!
Hanging up Qiao Zhi's phone, Du Liang suddenly had confidence.
Seize this opportunity, his knife factory may become a leading enterprise in the country and even the world!
