Chapter 32: I'll Do It with You!
"The last two days, the last two days! Buy a magic ball, you are the most dazzling magic ball master in the school. ”
Han Chudong kept playing dog walking, sleeping, etc., just a few tricks, over and over.
He continued to shout: "From tomorrow onwards, the original price will be restored, and now you can buy three for only 18 US dollars!
This yo-yo, which was named Super Magic Ball by Han Chudong, is not cool enough in shape and color, and the workmanship is relatively rough, and the sleep idling time can be almost more than 20 seconds, and it can last for about half a minute if it is thrown well, and it can be dragged back by pulling the rope.
I was going to make a fortune from them.
Recently, the more I sell, the better, and I just want to sell the more than 4,000 at home and earn back the money to open the store, so I haven't thought about improving the workmanship or anything like that.
Not many students will have more than five dollars on them, after all, the school is not a good school, and there are many campus bullies who steal students' money.
At the beginning of the promotion, the customer groups were all students, and the sales were naturally not high, and when the class bell rang, a total of only more than 30 were sold.
The cost was more than 30 US dollars, and counting the five sold after school in the morning, made a total of almost 200 US dollars.
Some of these buyers were parents of students who agreed to buy because they were so entangled by their children that they had no choice but to buy.
When they pay money, they scold and scold, saying that young people don't study well, and they are trying every means to delay their children's studies, etc., mainly because they feel sorry for money.
Anyway, I made the money, so what if I was said a few words, I engaged in charity fundraising some time ago, and I have already sharpened my face.
Wait for the school gates to close.
He took the army and watermelon heads again, and changed to a public school with more black people to continue to set up stalls, where school would be dismissed at three o'clock, and the students would come out later.
As for the school where my mother works.
I just advertised, anyway, the students will have to wait until tomorrow to bring money to buy it, and they can go to the stall after school tonight.
After parking the car.
Han Chudong took two yo-yos, threw them to Dajun and watermelon heads respectively, and said to them: "Hurry up and practice, don't go to work tomorrow, and come out to set up a stall together."
Sell one and I'll give it to you...... Two dollars, the patent fee is expensive, and I have invested a lot in the early stage, as long as I open up the market, I should be able to earn half a year's salary soon, and then go directly to work in my store. ”
"What shop? Is it an electrical repair shop?" The watermelon head did the same, took the yo-yo and threw it down, and directly got started at one time.
Dajun suddenly shook his head: "It's okay to help you, just repair household appliances, I don't like that." ”
"No, I plan to rent the three shops in the Meng Ou Zhifeng Archway, and then open a home appliance retail store, when the time comes, you will help me deliver goods and receive customers, and the salary will definitely be higher than if you are working now." ”
Seeing the watermelon head take out a Marlboro cigarette, Han Chudong also reached out to follow, and continued: "I contacted the owners of those shops and gave him a deposit of 3,000 first, if nothing else, it will be purchased and opened at the end of this month, so you must make some money through this thing first." ”
"Damn, you can! Your business is getting bigger and bigger, and you can take both of us naked!"
Dajun was delighted, and of course he preferred to work in front of his house and under his friends rather than go to the warehouse to guard the door.
The watermelon head was also quite pleasantly surprised, mainly because they could have someone to chat with when they worked together, and they would not be as boring as working in the factory, and they laughed so hard that they couldn't stop laughing: "Your family agreed?
"Of course not. As you have just seen, there is a lot of trouble selling this stuff, I advertised it in the morning, and it attracted so many students in the afternoon, and we are the only one in the world who sells it.
You can get a commission when you sell it, and selling a dozen or so a day is already higher than the salary at work, and after I tried it, I think that the 5,000 customized ones should not worry about selling. It's better to get some more people over and help with it, and I'll wholesale them for five dollars a piece. ”
Brothers should also settle accounts.
As Han Chudong said, he is currently the only one in the world who sells this toy, and has also applied for a patent in the United States.
The sales are not bad, there will be no shortage of customers to buy, which is equivalent to taking all the risks himself.
Selling one and getting a sales commission of two dollars is already very considerable, and you must know that ordinary people can earn more than ten dollars a day of work.
And there are no competitors in the early stage, as long as you work hard in the short term, you don't have to worry about making money, anyway, it must be much better than the original work of Dajun and Watermelon Head, and it definitely doesn't treat them badly.
Zhou Nan's brain can be more active, thinking about the effort just now, he sold more than thirty, if he also sold so much, wouldn't he be able to get a commission of sixty or seventy US dollars?
Thinking of this, how could he still be nostalgic for the rigid work of sitting next to the assembly line, not to mention that Han Chudong even solved their next work.
He immediately made a decision, and said decisively: "I'll do it with you! Give me some goods now, and I'll find a place with a lot of people to set up a stall to sell!"
When the army heard this, he also said: "Okay, I don't want the job of a security guard, anyway, even if it doesn't work, a similar job can be found again."
Xiaodong, do you really plan to sell electrical appliances after selling this toy? I feel that yo-yo toys can make more money, since you have even applied for a patent, why don't you keep selling it, the competition for home appliances is very fierce. ”
"Patents can be bypassed if they find a way, and even if they can't, cheap goods made in other countries will soon enter the United States.
When the time comes, people will sell them on small stalls, and it will be impossible to sue them all in court one by one, and it will be difficult for this business to continue for a long time. ”
Han Chudong didn't think that far, in fact, if he built a brand and was recognized by users, he could maintain his lead even if there was piracy.
Just like the "Fire Boy King" and "Speeding YOYO" in his memory, they all brought the yo-yo brand to the fire, making people feel that they are genuine, and other brands are all miscellaneous brands even if they are of good quality.
Fame is very important, and copycat manufacturers can't advertise, at least not in countries and regions that recognize U.S. patents.
It's too early to talk about these things at present, Han Chudong just wants to sell his patent after making a profit, and then said to the watermelon head:
"Learn to practice with me first, if you can't play tricks, who wants to pay so much money to buy them from you? You have to practice very skillfully, so that they can think this toy is cool, and then they can sell more, now I'm going to teach you ......"
Not long after, the bell rang for the end of class from this old public middle school with a small area, and almost at the moment when the bell rang, students came out in groups.
Or riding a bicycle, or holding a basketball, rugby, etc.
In the early seventies, the social status of blacks was still very low, and it was difficult to change the ideas that had remained in people's minds for hundreds of years.
Of course, don't laugh at the eldest brother of the second brother, the status of Chinese Americans is also very low, and almost all of them are black African students and Mexican students.
Seeing Han Chudong and others setting up stalls and shouting, some students rushed to watch and asked, "Man, what are you selling, cool!"
"Don't you know that the Super Magic Ball is the most popular toy out there, an eight dollar. ”
As soon as Han Chudong finished speaking, several students laughed and said, "It's such garbage, it's so expensive, who is crazy to buy it, or sell me ten for a dollar, how about ......?"
