Chen Yun still shook his head. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"In fact, when there are enough commodities and there are enough people in demand, even if the range of demand is not large and the price of the commodity is high enough, it will also cause a rush to buy."

Yu Zheng explained as much as he could in words that Chen Yun could understand.

"Do you think a seventeen-inch color TV is expensive to sell for 1,45 in China?"

"Expensive."

Chen Yun nodded, now a worker's salary is only forty or fifty yuan, and he can save five hundred yuan without eating or drinking a year, and the price of a color TV, plus the price of a color TV ticket, almost takes a worker five or six years to save enough money, no matter what, this is very expensive, and the working class in the city is like this, not to mention their rural ones.

Of course,According to what Yu Zheng just said,Rural areas are not actually on the customer list of consumer goods manufacturers such as color TVs。

"Don't you wonder why such an expensive thing can still be sold out of stock? That's a lot of money that far exceeds your income, haven't you thought about it? It stands to reason that you see that I think it's unreasonable to set the price of four yuan an hour, it's expensive, why is it expensive? Because you think that it exceeds the salary standard of ordinary people, your reference is the salary level of ordinary people, in this case, then you should have thought that it is unreasonable for so many people to grab something as expensive as TV. ”

Faced with Yu Zheng's rhetorical question, Chen Yun was speechless again, she really hadn't thought about it before, and even before that, she felt that it was very reasonable for a color TV to be so expensive.

As for why it makes sense?

She thought about it for a while, and felt that it was naturally reasonable for so many people to buy it, after all, no matter how big the truth was, it was not as powerful as reality.

"Actually, the reason is quite simple, you are not from the city, you may not understand it very well, the biggest reason is that the dual-income families in the city have money in their hands, and the reason for being rich is also quite simple, that is, in the past ten or twenty years, there are not many places where they need to spend money, you understand?"

Chen Yun's face was still a little dazed.

"To put it simply, as a dual-income worker, in the necessities of life, such as eating, first of all, there is a national food supply, they can buy cheap food at a low price, and secondly, there are subsidies for the unit canteen, even if you want to eat more, before the change, the food is limited supply, no ticket, no food, it doesn't cost much in this regard, and then for example, housing, houses are provided by the unit, no need to spend money, and then for example, illness, the unit is fully reimbursed, and then for example, children go to school, the state pays most, And if there is an affiliated school in the unit, you don't even need to take money, and of course, there is no entertainment consumption......"

Yu Zheng said a lot, in fact, to say that as a worker with urban hukou, in the past ten or twenty years, there is actually not much place to spend money.

After saying this, Chen Yun somewhat understood.

“…… In this situation where you don't need to spend money or spend very little money to live, of course, you can't spend it even if you have money, but you can have a fixed income every month, which is not much different from each other, and this period of time has lasted for ten or twenty years. ”

Yu Zheng said this passage a little tongue-twisting, but this time Chen Yun nodded.

"I understand boss, what do you mean that dual-income families actually save a lot of money, and there are quite a few such dual-income families?"

Chen Yun's face showed an excited look, and she seemed to be extremely happy that she understood Yu Zheng's meaning.

"Yes."

Yu Zheng snapped his fingers, and he said with a smile: "It's not that there are a lot of such dual-income families, but that their savings and income are basically the same in such families, and their purchasing power is kept at the same level, and the experience of the past ten or twenty years, or the experience of these ten or twenty years of life, is that there is not much money to spend, just a number in the bank, and color TV is real, and it is also what they want, if they just want, That's probably just thinking about it, after all, the price is there......"

“…… However, let me give you another analogy, let's say you and someone are neighbors in the same family home, you have worked in a factory together for 20 years, and the income is about the same, and one of them suddenly moves back a color TV one day, which attracts the attention of everyone in the family home, what is your idea? ”

"Is there a kind of him who bought a color TV, why don't I buy one? Am I worse than him? Do I have less money than he does? Not worse than him, no less than him! ”

"Now you understand? The background of the out-of-stock color TV refrigerator washing machine is actually this, the urban dual-income family has money in their hands, and can afford the consumption of these three major pieces of thousand-yuan yuan, which is the premise of everything, although the price of these three major pieces far exceeds the affordability of the current income level, and secondly, it is the comparative consumption, because the competitiveness of such families is equal, coupled with the asymmetry between supply and demand, it has caused this kind of consumption phenomenon that you think is reasonable, but in fact, it is completely unreasonable. ”

In fact, there is another point that Yu Zheng didn't say.

That is, the state wants these city dwellers to release their savings in the bank and make this dead money come alive, and only when the money is alive can it bring vitality to the economy. Circulation is the guarantee of economic vitality, only when the money is circulated, people will feel that the money is not enough, when the money is not enough, the country can print more money, the country prints more money, the circulation of money can be more, the circulation of more money, the economy will enter inflation.

And slight inflation is good for the economy.

Therefore, the entire 80s was actually the first period of government-led inflation in the domestic economy after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Chen Yun's face finally showed a look of sudden realization, but she immediately wondered again: "But what does this question have to do with the four yuan an hour of the game console you said?" ”

"It's simple......"

Yu Zheng smiled and said: "First of all, this price is really high, but my target customers are not ordinary people, my target customers are very few people who can afford this price, and secondly, the relationship between supply and demand is not equal, when the supply side belongs to the strong side, it will have pricing power, because the market is in short supply, you don't buy naturally others will buy it...... In fact, it's the same as the three major pieces of color TVs that are out of stock,That is, the asymmetry between supply and demand,This is what I told you at the beginning,I'll just explain it to you later,The deeper reason is just。 ”

"Didn't I say before, when there are enough commodities and there are enough people in demand, this is more relative to the commodity, even if the price of the commodity is expensive, it can be in short supply."

"Our game consoles are our commodity, and there are enough of them in Wei'an, at least I haven't heard that there are other game machine rooms besides us, right? And how many people need it? I think the whole Wei'an must be much more than the number of our game consoles, in this case, do you still think four yuan an hour is expensive? ”

"The ...... of the asymmetry between supply and demand"

Chen Yun silently repeated what Yu Zheng said, and combined with Yu Zheng's example, she suddenly felt that a door in front of her seemed to suddenly open.

At this time, Li Guozheng, who had just moved boxes of videotapes to the rest room, was finally busy.

He glanced at Yu Zheng, who was drinking tea and chatting with Chen Yun, and said with some indignation: "I'm busy to death, you drink tea here by yourself, does this still make sense?" (To be continued.) )
