Chapter 663: Matrix store (1st Update)

Amid the laughter and cheers of the audience, Jim Carrey and Zhang Chen hugged each other, waved to the audience, and walked backstage.

The only chasing light in the audience hit Zhang Chen, and Zhang Chen's English name and CEO's position appeared on the two big screens.

Zhang Chen fiddled with a few teleprompter cards in his hand and shrugged his shoulders, "Ell, hello everyone, we meet again." ”

Zhang Chen has been insisting on exercise and fitness for half a year, even on the plane. Coupled with the personal guidance of the world's best fitness coaches and martial arts masters, Zhang Chen's figure is becoming more and more erect than half a year ago. Her short hair, carefully trimmed by a professional hairstylist, stands on end, and her tight black short sleeves vaguely outline the contours of her muscles, full of youth and vitality.

"So handsome. "Although 80 percent of the people were men, the remaining 20 percent were women, and there were 500 or 600 women, many of whom were young girls screaming with red eyes.

Zhang Chen is not a very handsome type, not to mention that the aesthetic difference between the East and the West is quite big, but after being taken care of by the stylist, he can actually have a bit of charm in appearance.

Young, strong, and handsome, there are many such handsome guys, but it is still rare to see a young, strong and handsome billionaire, and a self-made billionaire.

After a short spoof talk show, the audience's emotions were aroused, and the applause was much warmer than when they just entered the venue.

Zhang Chen made a brief opening remark first, and then paced two steps on the stage, "Everyone knows that at today's press conference, Matrix should have some new things to introduce to you, but before that, I think it is necessary to explain the business status of iCom in the past four months." ”

Zhang Chen pressed the remote control, and the slide automatically switched to the next page. There is only one number on it, 300,000.

"Yes, X released our first product, iCom, on May 16 of this year, and it has been more than four months now. Four days ago, on September 13, iCom's cumulative sales exceeded 300,000 units!"

More than 3,000 spectators burst into thunderous applause, and 300,000 pieces are a very remarkable number at present. The market expectation for the whole year of the consumer industry in the United States is only 7 million units, and Matrix has occupied 4% of the market in four months, which has to be said to be a miracle.

Zhang Chen said a few words of thank you and continued: "When we launched iCom, we knew what a great personal computer it was, and this was a work of art. So we are not at all surprised that it has achieved such results. What really surprised us was this. Zhang Chen pressed the remote control again, and another number appeared on the two big screens, 66.67%.

Also four days ago, Matrix achieved more than 300,000 cumulative sales. On the same day, we also sold 200,000 units online. It accounts for 66.67 percent of the entire sales channel. Over the past four months, the average daily online turnover has exceeded $2.65 million, with the highest turnover coming on September 14, when the online turnover reached $5.7 million!"

The audience was cheering again, of course, most of the cheering electronics lovers didn't understand what this meant at all, but the emotions came and followed the blind coaxing. But those technology and financial media and professionals on the scene understand, and they can't help but be shocked.

The online sales turnover exceeds $5.7 million! What is this concept? Dell is desperately engaged in an online shopping mall, providing dozens of models and configurations of computers, and providing as many as hundreds of accessories, and the online turnover data is barely more than $1 million per day.

To that end, Dell held a large-scale celebration last month, inviting various media outlets. At the meeting, Mike Dell proudly announced that the Dell online store is already the world's largest e-commerce website. On the same day, Dell's stock jumped 13 percent.

And now, Zhang Chen actually claims that 67% of iCom's orders come from the Internet. The average daily online turnover is more than $2.65 million, and the peak is close to 6 million, which is more than double Dell's online performance!?

This press conference is interesting, slapping Dell in the face everywhere, no wonder that no matter how the media asked Matrix about Dell's previous remarks on Matrix and Dell's lawsuit against Matrix some time ago, they didn't get a response.

I was waiting here.

Zhang Chen took a sip of water and continued: "Matrix always believes that e-commerce represents the future, and whoever can do a good job in e-commerce now will hold the key to the future. We've had a lot of success with our online sales strategy, which is a proud statistic, and just two days ago, I was complacent. But the day before yesterday afternoon, I received a letter, a letter, made of paper, not an email. I'll read it to you. ”

Zhang Chen pulled out the letter paper from the envelope: "Dear Zack, my name is Jamie, Jamie Stern, and my family lives in Brentwood, Tennessee. Did you know that my hometown is very beautiful and there is also a national park called Lake Radna National Park. Every autumn, a large number of beautiful mallards fly in from afar, and each one of them is beautiful, as beautiful as your iCom, I promise. ”

Zhang Chen paused and continued: "I got sick a few months ago and stayed in the hospital for a long time. In the hospital, I saw the iCom commercials and launch events on TV, and I was hooked almost at first sight by iCom, which was better than any computer I had seen in school. At my begging, my father promised me that he would go to Nashville, twenty miles away, to buy me an iCom when I was discharged from the hospital. ”

"Now that I've been discharged from the hospital, my dad found out that there wasn't a single computer store in Nashville that sold iCom, and he asked a lot to find out that the nearest dealer was more than 300 miles away. People in computer stores also say that if we want to buy, the easiest way now is to buy it on the Internet. But my father was a farmer, and he knew how to distinguish each soybean variety, but he didn't really know how to use the Internet. ”

"So, I wrote you this letter. If you can see, I really hope you can open a store with us, I love Matrix's products just as much as I love the beautiful mallards of Lake Radna. If you don't believe me, you can take a look at the photos I sent you with the letter, really, beautifully. ”

After reading the letter, Zhang Chen was silent for a moment: "This letter was received by us a month ago, and the child who wrote the letter is eleven years old this year, and his name is Jamie. In the letter, he said that he had been in the hospital for a long time, and it was not until three days ago that we learned that he had leukemia. ”

The audience fell silent all of a sudden, and Zhang Chen said in a deep voice: "Knowing the news, my management team notified me as soon as possible, and I also sent someone to Brentwood to bring a brand new iCom to Little Jamie." But when our men came to Jamie's house, his father, Tom, told us that Jamie had passed away three days earlier. Look, here's a picture sent by Jamie, well, Jamie, you kid me not, it's really beautiful. ”

Zhang Chen took out two more photos from the envelope, and after the camera pushed it over, all the audience at the scene saw that one of the photos showed a young boy in his early teens, sitting in a boat, smiling very happily. In the other photo, it is a North American ring-necked duck.

The audience was silent, Zhang Chen put away the photos and letters, and said slowly: "This letter made me start to reflect on our sales strategy, indeed, the Internet represents the future." But equally, since it represents the future, it shows that there are still too many people who don't know what the Internet really is. ”

"According to the latest statistics, the number of people who have been exposed to the Internet has reached 47 million last month, and the number of people who go online every day is 35 million. But in fact, there are 270 million people in the United States, that is, more than 80 percent of the people have never been exposed to the Internet and do not know how to use the Internet. This situation like Little Jamie is a problem that most people will face. This is true in the United States, the most powerful country in the world, and the situation in other countries can be imagined. ”

Zhang Chen paused and looked around the venue: "iCom is a very good product, I hope everyone in the world can use it." So, in order to achieve this goal, Matrix has recently developed a very large plan. Zhang Chen pressed the remote control, and two words appeared on the two big screens.
