Chapter 681 - Pre-sale opens

Who knows, my mother, who is usually very shrewd, was not moved, but just said: "Isn't it cheaper than a thousand? If spending this extra money can give you more time to study in your freshman year, it's worth it! Don't worry, when you are a sophomore, your mother will buy you a good one, let's not buy those bargains!"

The father next to him also interjected: "That's it, you kid just has no interest, what do you care about so cheap." Look at Yu Wenfei, he is the same age as you, and now he is the richest man in China!

Xiao Gao pursed his lips slightly, thinking to himself, what do I think Yu Wenfei is doing, of course there is no one among his peers who can compare to him. But why don't you look at yourself, brag all day long about how good you are at business, and as a result, you have been in business for ten years, and the money you earn is not as good as a fraction of what Yu Wenfei earns in a year.

Of course, he didn't dare to say these words, otherwise let alone buying a computer, even if it was the cost of living, it was estimated that it would drop by a notch!

I was anxious to use how to persuade my parents to pay for it, and I heard my father say: "I was a little touched after reading the letter that Yu Wenfei wrote on Facebook, indeed, he also played with computers, and Bill Gates became the richest man in the world! Yu Wenfei used computers to write three best-selling books, and now he has become the richest man in China." Of course, there are many big bosses who run Internet companies, and they all make money through computers. You kid is still majoring in computer science in college, have you ever thought about starting an Internet company or something in the future?"

Xiao Gao's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said: "You don't buy me a computer, and I don't have the opportunity to study that every day, maybe I'm also a computer genius, and I was killed by you!"

My mother sneered and said, "Don't your father and I know you yet?" You kid has poor self-control ability when he is a child, and he is also a computer genius? Tiancai can't even get into a key university, you, don't become a waste in the future, I'm thankful!"

This is a bit of a self-esteem, although Zhongyuan University is indeed not a key university, but it is also an undergraduate!

Xiao Gao was forced to be anxious, but he was in a hurry, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said: "Dad is right just now, I really have an idea, I can make money through the computer!"

My father and mother are both businessmen, so they are naturally more interested in the topic of making money, so my father asked suspiciously: "Make money through the computer? Don't fool me, you kid, tell me, how do you make money?"

Xiao Gao smiled calmly, and said confidently: "The fruit wholesale market is not far from the computer city, parents and you pass by there every day, you should know how good the business of the computer city is." ”

That's right, not far from the fruit wholesale market where my parents are, there is the largest computer city in the provincial capital, a five-story building, which sells electronic products, and the business is very good.

My parents have said several times that when the computer city first opened, there was an opportunity to buy two shops, but because I didn't know that line, I didn't start, and now the price of the shop has increased several times.

"What's wrong with the computer city? You kid don't want to rent a shop to practice stalls, do you?" asked my mother in surprise.

"How is that possible, I haven't finished college yet. However, this time, if the Huimin computer engaged in by Lenovo Group is operated well, it can make a lot of money!"

"Huimin computer? How can you make money through this, and the computer is not produced by our family, not to mention, don't the newspapers say that Huimin computer sells a loss of more than 1,000?" said the father.

"That's right! Why does Lenovo lose money selling Huimin computers, that's because the pricing of this computer is much cheaper than the market price! Parents, think about it, I bought the computer that sells 4,050 yuan on the market, and then sold it for 5699 yuan, and then sold it for 5 or 600 yuan, will it be very good to sell! "Did Xiao Gao say with a glint in his eyes?"

The father and mother glanced at each other, and for a while they didn't know whether what their son said was right or wrong.

After a moment's hesitation, Dad asked, "The question is...... Why do other people buy a computer with a higher price from you? Isn't that Taobao Internet where anyone can buy it?"

First of all, in the first month, Lenovo only allowed college students to buy it, that is, others could not buy it at all.

Secondly, after this batch of computers was put on the market, the response was too great, and all the people who were ready to buy computers basically did not buy other brands of computers, and everyone was waiting for Huimin computers. However, Lenovo Group has announced that because the production is limited, the products can only be listed in batches, and there will inevitably be many people in this process who want to buy but can't.

If you spend an extra five or six hundred, you can get a computer two months or even more early, would you be willing?"

As he spoke, Xiao Gao looked at his parents.

"I should be willing. Dad said thoughtfully.

"I don't want to, I'll keep waiting. Mom disagreed.

Xiao Gao laughed and said, "Look, at least 50% of people will accept a price increase to buy a computer in advance." In fact, although I said that five or six hundred were added, for ordinary people, it was equivalent to only two or three hundred, because the education discount is not something they can get, and what I buy is an education discount!"

Mom and Dad think about it, if it is only two or three hundred more expensive, you can buy your favorite computer a few months in advance, then most people may accept it, after all, computers are also large commodities. What's more, even if the price is increased, it is still much cheaper than other computers with the same configuration brand on the market.

But my father thought of another question, and he asked, "No, even if you buy an educational computer, isn't it true that a student can only buy one? Even if you sell your computer, it will only earn a few hundred yuan, is it worth it?"

Of course, this education discount is also limited, and it is impossible for one student to buy many computers. Lenovo has a clear rule that the same student can purchase a maximum of one educational discount computer per academic year.

Xiao Gao smiled wryly: "Dad, you are still in business, don't you understand this? Although I can only buy one, but what about other classmates! There are so many students in our school, and there are always many people who can't afford to buy computers or have already bought computers." I'll find some of these students and borrow their qualifications, and it's a big deal if one person gives them a hundred yuan. ”

Mom and Dad suddenly realized, thinking carefully, this is really a good way!

In fact, this is not the same thing as scalpers who resell Spring Festival train tickets!

Buy the in-demand goods at a low price, and then sell them at a higher price, and the middleman makes the difference, and easily makes money.

This is ......

It's really worth it!

Think about it, a computer is not too much, just earn 500 yuan after removing all the costs.

If you turn a hundred units, it will be a profit of 50,000 yuan!

What if it's 200 units or more......

There are low-priced and in-demand goods, so you have to consider the problem of sales, my mother asked: "I bought the computer, how do you solve the problem of sales, and no one in our family does this, I don't know who to sell to." ”

Regarding this problem, Xiao Gao's father has his own ideas, he frowned and said: "If there are fewer upside-down computers, the problem can be solved, our relatives and friends, as well as those bosses in the wholesale market, ask who wants to buy a computer, and basically can deal with a lot." If it's too much...... At that time, you can go to the computer city and ask the bosses who sell computers to see if they accept them. If it really doesn't work, even if you rent a shop in the computer city and sell computers, it's worth it!"

Things have come to this point, basically the three of them have reached an agreement, this business can be done!

Dad made a decision immediately, and said simply: "You can try this thing, I'll give you 50,000 yuan to buy a batch of computers first, and see how the sales are after you buy it." If the computer is really good to sell, then we will increase the cost and do a big job, you kid, I didn't expect the brain to be quite flexible. If this business is done well, it will be much better than if you graduated from college and went to work, haha. ”

Xiao Gao began to gear up, taking the 50,000 yuan sponsored by his father, and planned to inquire about the school first, to see which students were not ready to buy computers, then borrow their student IDs. Wait until the Lenovo Huimin computer on Taobao is officially on sale, and immediately start to buy it.

............

The new Lenovo's Huimin computer is naturally not produced so quickly, from mass procurement to production and assembly off the assembly line, and then to transportation to Lenovo stores around the country, it is expected that the first batch of computers will not be officially launched until mid-December.

However, this does not affect the early start of the pre-sale.

According to Yu Wenfei's suggestion, the sales of Huimin computers this time adopted a pre-sale method, which requires consumers to pay money to place an order first, and then wait for the computer to go offline according to the order of the order.

On December 5, the official website of New Lenovo Group, Facebook, Taobao, and Facebook Mutual Finance issued announcements.

"On December 6th, at ten o'clock in the morning, the first batch of educational discounts of Huimin Computer officially launched pre-sale, please go to Taobao Lenovo flagship store to place an order, the quantity is limited, first come, first served!"

The number of computers in the first batch of educational discounts is indeed limited, a total of 1.2 million units, in fact, in the first half of the year, the monthly shipments were about 1 million to 1.2 million. After half a year, there will be a corresponding increase in production, which is expected to increase to between 1.5 million and 2 million.

However, the cost in the first year is much higher, so in terms of the overall production and sales quantity, there will be no unlimited supply.

And put too many low-priced goods into the market at one time, the impact on the entire industry is too great, although Yuwenfei does not care about the life and death of other brand manufacturers, but more or less there is a way to leave a way for others to live, give them some time to transform.

After the announcement was issued, it immediately spread to all universities in China, and I don't know how many college students have already prepared the money and are waiting for the educational discount computer to go on the market.
