Act 30 Hunger Marketing
Doug looked at the back of the little shoe-shiner's mother, reached into his trouser pocket, and rubbed the first silver coin he earned.
For a moment, he couldn't bear it. He was even wondering if he was going to let go of this mother and son.
But the cold touch of the coin sobered him up, and he could spare the little shoe-shiner, but who would let him go?
The history of the founding of the United States is a bloody history.
The history of the development of the United States is a history of cruel war.
The Mayflower, full of Protestants, crossed the ocean to the American continent.
The good Indians entertained the hungry refugees and granted them cultivation techniques that would allow them to survive in the New World.
When the harvest came, the Protestants decided to thank God for the food and the harvest and the new land.
This group of Protestants recuperated and took in a larger population based in the thirteen colonies.
Gradually, they became more and more people and needed more land. And those lands belonged to the Indians, so they decided to start a war.
The bloody massacres lasted a long time, from the landing of the first colonial ship in the Americas to the founding of the United States. The indigenous people of this land have changed from an absolute majority to a very minority.
During the two wars of independence, the United States gained the power to become independent and self-reliant.
The Mexican-American War, the showdown between the southern United States and Mexico, occupied a large amount of Mexican land, and also compressed Mexico from a regional power to a geopolitical vassal of the United States.
The Civil War, which was a war fought within the United States to unify the economic model. The victory of the North completely made the whole United States embrace industrialization.
In World War I, the United States became the world's top industrial nation.
In World War II, the United States completely overthrew Britain and established a new international order.
After the end of the Cold War, the United States completely became the number one power on the earth.
These great battles are interspersed with numerous small battles.
The United States has been able to stand at the top of the world's list of nations not because of the universal values it promotes, but because of its formidable combat effectiveness.
It is precisely because of its strong fighting ability that the values it promotes will become universal values.
From the history of the development and war of the United States. What America truly reveres is social Darwinism.
"The law of the jungle eats the strong! Natural selection! Survival of the fittest!"
If Doug wants to survive in the United States, he can only abide by this set of rules and wield a butcher's knife to fight his way through this cannibalistic world.
He is now weak, and can only draw his sword against the weaker.
"Luck, you can rest easy here, don't think too much. A smile crossed Doug's face as he turned to the little shoe-shiner.
"Yes, sir!" said the little shoe-shiner, with an inexplicable hope.
Unlike the bustling Port of New Haven, the downtown area of New Haven is full of idlers and homeless people.
After confirming that the little shoe-shiner was okay, Doug went to Yale University with the "Monopoly" produced by the printing and dyeing factory only yesterday.
After a week of perseverance in attending the salon, "Monopoly" has now officially become the hottest party game at Yale University.
In almost every party, "Monopoly" is indispensable.
Everyone is interested in the game "Monopoly", and the reason why no one has a game yet is limited by the capacity of the printing and dyeing factory.
Today, the six female workers in the printing and dyeing factory are all very proficient in painting the pattern of the canvas of "Monopoly".
Various models and materials needed to make the game are also in stock.
Doug plans to hire some more workers tomorrow, expand production capacity, and officially change the name "Monopoly" to "Monopoly".
As the carriage pulls into Yale, Williams can be seen standing on the side of the road, waiting for Doug's arrival.
"Teacher, the 'Monopoly' you gave me yesterday has all been sold out. There were still people who wanted to buy at a higher price, and I just handed them all the number plates and asked them to line up to buy them today. Williams said impatiently before Doug could get out of the carriage.
He called Doug a teacher, and he was full of energy.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, he was only responsible for selling the game "Monopoly", but he made him his business.
"You're doing a great job. Doug took the money bag and said, taking out a bank note from it, "This is your payment." ”
"Teacher...... I...... I don't need to be paid......" Williams refused.
"If you do your work, you have to be paid. Doug said as he shoved the money into Williams' hands.
"Thank you, teacher...... Williams said gratefully.
Doug looked at him and sighed slightly in his heart, he wondered if this young man who didn't look stupid had been kicked in the head by a horse when he was a child.
The tuition fee he paid to himself the other night was enough to pay him half a year's salary.
He sighed and handed a suitcase to Williams, "This is Monopoly today." ”
Like a happy horse, Williams walked away with Monopoly and continued his sales business.
Today, Doug came to Yale University, not just to collect money and send "Monopoly", but the president wanted to find him.
"Hello Mr. Doug!"
"Hello sir!"
"Sir, do you still have Monopoly there?"
……
Along the way, countless students greeted Doug.
Doug's reputation is bigger and more positive than it was when he scolded the lecturer.
All players who have played Monopoly will think of him when they see the dog head logo of the Claydon Printing and Dyeing Factory in the corner of the canvas.
Doug nodded slightly in greeting, and said to those who wanted to buy "Monopoly", "I don't have "Monopoly here", I just gave it to Williams, you can go to Williams and buy it." ”
"It's so hard for him to buy there, he can't buy it at a higher price. Oh my God, you have to get a small sign to buy with a number. You don't know yet, the prices of those small brands are all very high! The small brands that can be bought on the same day are at least ten dollars! You should take care of them!"
Doug shook his head, "I can't control this, this is the free market, isn't it? I'm not going to interfere with the market. ”
"Then you might as well raise the price directly!" the man said in an unhappy tone.
Doug asked, "Do you think Monopoly is worth ten dollars?"
The man shook his head.
"You don't think it's worth it, and I don't think it's worth it. Now some Yale students are in an irrational state about this game, and I think they will return to rationality one day. If you can't buy "Monopoly" for the time being, don't worry, wait a minute, you can buy it soon. ”
Although Doug does not plan to distribute goods on a large scale at Yale University even if the production capacity is higher, he may as well say so.
Hunger marketing is the only way to keep a product hot.
Everybody's talking, everybody's eagerly wanting to have, isn't that what a businessman dreams of?
He's a businessman, why would he break such a beautiful scene?
He said goodbye to the Monopoly player, went to the principal's room, pushed the heavy door and said, "Principal, I'm here." ”
