On December 30, the Walmart supermarket in Manhattan, New York, was full of people.

Walmart in Manhattan is one of the largest supermarkets in the Walmart group, with an operating area of more than 50,000 square meters and a very large daily footfall.

With such a large business area, except for Christmas, supermarket sales and other shopping days, this Wal-Mart supermarket is fully able to accommodate all customers at other times, and there will be no queue at the door.

Today, however, there is a long queue at the door of this Walmart supermarket.

This situation made Bradley, the manager of this Walmart supermarket, feel very incredible.

Today is December 30th, and it's been a few days since Christmas, and usually at this time, there is a shopping slump.

Because many people have already bought what they need for the next half month, or even more than a month, at Christmas.

Of course, the New Year will usher in another wave of shopping in 2 days, but the New Year's shopping wave is much smaller than Christmas, and today is December 30th, and there are still 2 days left before the New Year.

Bradley looked at the people lining up from the store to the door, looking at the electronic pets that were disappearing quickly on the shelves, and couldn't help but walk up to the person at the back of the line and asked:

"Hello beautiful lady, are you here to buy an electronic pet?"

The person being questioned by Bradley was a young female white-collar worker, who saw Bradley's handsome appearance and sensed that Bradley had a temperament similar to that of her boss.

Feeling that Bradley should be a successful person, this young female white-collar worker couldn't help but smile a little more.

"Yes, I think the people in line like me are also here to buy electronic pets. ”

"I want to take the liberty of asking you, why do you want to buy an electronic pet?"

"A friend of mine bought an animatronic pet the other day, and she said it was very fun, and then recommended it to me, and I played with it for a while, and I got hooked on the animatronic pet, it was so fun!

The young female white-collar worker said excitedly.

"Thank you for answering my question, this is a Walmart supermarket coupon, a little thank you for me. Bradley pulled a $100 coupon out of his pocket.

The young female white-collar worker hurriedly refused, and finally Bradley said that he was the manager of the Wal-Mart supermarket, and this kind of coupon was nothing, so the young female white-collar worker accepted it.

Bradley then went to ask a few more people in line, including students, the elderly, adult men, and other types of people.

The answer was surprisingly unanimous: "Cyber pets are so fun!

Fun Bradley can understand, but what does cute mean?

Bradley has never personally touched the electronic pet until now, he knows that the electronic pet is on the shelves of many Walmart supermarkets at the same time, but he thinks it is an ordinary product on the shelves.

Wal-Mart has countless types of products, and as the manager of Wal-Mart supermarket, how can he pay attention to a product on the shelves, unless the product is a famous American brand or a world famous brand.

Bradley went back to the store, observed for a long time, returned to the office, took out his notebook and wrote something.

After just observing, Bradley can determine that at least 25% of these customers who come to buy electronic pets will also buy other items in the supermarket.

Everything is interconnected, and the same applies to the products in the supermarket.

A customer may only want to buy one item before coming to the supermarket, but after coming to the supermarket, he may change his mind and buy more.

E-pets are like gravity, attracting customers who don't want to come to the supermarket or Walmart to buy e-pets and other goods.

In this way, the value that customers bring to the supermarket is not only electronic pets, but also other goods, which together is a very large value.

Bradley called the sales executive and asked how many of the e-pets were in stock and how much they were in stock.

I learned that the Walmart supermarket he managed had 30,000 electronic pets at the beginning, and now there are only more than 12,000 electronic pets left.

Electronic pet Christmas sales have been on sale for 5 days now, with an average of more than 3,000 sales per day, and this sales are on the rise, and are expected to be sold out on January 1.

Bradley was surprised by this sales figure again, and he didn't expect the sales of electronic pets to be so large.

It seems that he should do something to promote this trend of electronic pets.

……

Europe, Paris, France, Carrefour supermarket.

Carrefour supermarkets also have queues to buy electronic pets, but compared to the queues at Walmart supermarkets in New York, there are many fewer people queuing at Carrefour.

It's not that the wave of electronic pets hasn't reached France yet, it's that France has a smaller population and purchasing power than the United States, and most people run out of money by Christmas.

Moreover, Xu Qing's influence in the United States is greater, and the electronic pets launched by him have attracted more attention in the United States, and naturally more people have bought them.

Although there were not so many people in line, Jenny was still anxious when she was in line.

Jenny is a middle school student, and after Christmas, a new trend has become popular in her school, especially among girls, which is very popular, and this trend is electronic pets.

Jenny is a person who keeps up with trends, and she will experience any new hairstyles and new clothes that are popular.

So after she saw the popularity of electronic pets, she played with her classmates' electronic pets a few times, and immediately decided to buy an electronic pet.

After school, Jenny quickly went to the nearest Carrefour supermarket, only to see a queue at the door, and only after learning about it did she know that these people in line were here to buy electronic pets.

Jenny couldn't help but worry about how much Carrefour still had in stock of electronic pets.

If she hadn't bought it today, she would have been behind the trend.

Jenny lined up worriedly.
