Chapter 457: Yamauchi Pu personally went into battle

The console is 300 US dollars, and the price of the game software is all raised to more than 30 US dollars, which makes Wang Zhe's eyes light up and smile very happily: "Very good, I like to raise the price!" For me, a customer counteroffer is cutting meat on me, and I'm the one who hates the sale season the most! ”

Everyone laughed, and they had long known that the salesperson and the consumer had a common hatred, and every qiΔ“ was because of a sharp word, Wang Zhe's table was slightly exaggerated, but as expected, it made a group of people laugh.

Some people are happy and some are worried, and the paper can't contain the fire, Yamauchi Pu soon learned about the countermeasures of Sony and Longteng, and felt angry at the low price of SU but not on the market, he forced the anger in his heart, and personally went to the Nintendo flagship store in Tokyo's Ginza shopping street, he wanted to inspect the sales of the N64 on the spot.

Ginza Commercial Plaza is not big, Nintendo flagship store and Sega flagship store are far away, the other party's business is good, there are not many customers, usually the clerk can see each other's every move without going out.

Over the years, it has always been Nintendo's employees who have watched customers come and go in Sega stores, carrying large bags and small bags, envious of their good business.

And today, Nintendo is full of confidence and is looking forward to suppressing Sega with the N64, and they are facing the endless stream of customers who come to buy with the fullest spirit, enthusiastically introducing the best products.

"Welcome!" When a customer enters the store, the beautiful shopping guide staff bends down to greet him, and everything is done perfectly.

……

……

β€œ258,47。 4...... "At two o'clock in the afternoon, a Nintendo clerk leaned against the gate and jotted down this line of numbers in a notebook in his hand. Her name is Amiko, a two-year employee with work experience, petite and cute, who was specially assigned to greet her, and she also had a difficult task of recording these numbers.

β€œ321。 50,5...... "At half past two in the afternoon, Amiko continued to record one.

β€œ398。 58,8...... "At three o'clock in the afternoon, another record was added to the notebook.

On the first day of the N64's sale, Nintendo stores were full of traffic. It's just in the middle of a busy schedule. The store manager left a heart eye and asked Amiko to look out the door while welcoming the guests, and record these counts.

It's just that Amiko is getting more and more annoyed now, looking at the number jΓΉ recorded from the morning to the present, how she hopes that these numbers are wrong.

The first of these numbers was recorded in the Nintendo store for observation and consultation, but in the end it was not purchased. According to the statistics of the number of customers who walk to the Sega flagship store after leaving the house, this kind of person is the most common. There are many reasons why the N64 is expensive, or because there are not many Nintendo games and are not as fun as Sega games.

The second is the number of people who came out of the Sega store empty-handed and came to the Nintendo store to consult and observe, these people may have been attracted by Nintendo's advertisements, and when they passed by Sega, they went in and had the habit of shopping around.

The third is a breakdown of the second number, jΓΉ, which records the number of customers who came from the Sega store and finally chose to spend in the Nintendo store, which is the least, and it is only in single digits for a whole day, indicating that after basically seeing Sega products, few people prefer Nintendo's games.

The Nintendo store is very lively today, and many customers even come to consult and buy without work, some of whom are die-hard Nintendo loyalists, who have been playing Nintendo games for many years, and have a very deep affection for Nintendo, and are those hardcore players who do not buy non-Nintendo goods.

It's a pity that the number of these Nintendo diehards is still small compared to the average consumer, and the vast majority of people who enter the store are loyal to the game, not the platform, so there will be hundreds of people who walk around the Nintendo store, and then buy nothing, shake their heads and leave, turn around and walk to the Sega store to buy SS and other games.

In terms of cost performance, SS is of course the most cost-effective, good quality and low price, game discs are also the cheapest, game quality is the most reliable, as for N64, although Nintendo employees are reluctant to admit it in their hearts, but this is the case, the cost performance is too low.

"Store manager......" Amiko saw the store manager coming over, and said aggrievedly, "Why do customers who come out of Sega carry large bags of goods in their hands, and many of them come from our side......"

The store manager took the notebook, she looked at these numbers, her brows furrowed, her heart was very entangled, but she was powerless, and she didn't know how to deal with it.

Obviously, Nintendo spent a lot of money and energy on advertising new game consoles in the media, promoting "3D Super Mario", attracting customers who were new to the new game console or interested in buying the new game console, but in the end it did not have the ability to leave this group of potential customers.

On the contrary, they are making wedding dresses for Sega, which has almost zero investment, and most of these customers go out and run left to the Sega store, bringing a lot of turnover to competitors, which is the most frustrating thing for Nintendo employees, making them unable to eat angry meals, and when they hear customers say "let's think about it" or "let's take a look first", they even have the heart to kill!

"Yikes! President, you're here! ”

"Hello President!"

A sturdy old man walked in at the welcome gate, wearing a suit and leather shoes, a bowled black top hat on his head, wearing brown glasses, and holding a gentleman's cane.

The store manager hurriedly greeted him with a smile, helped Yamauchi Pu, and welcomed him to the hall.

Along the way, Yamauchi nodded and smiled with customers who were shopping and inquiring, stopping from time to time to listen to the voices and needs of customers, and by the way, recommend them to buy suitable products.

His humility and demeanor surprised and moved many ordinary customers, not looking at the face of the monk to see the face of the Buddha, the game personally recommended by the president of Nintendo, if you don't buy it, it will not give face to the elderly, many customers are generous, even if it is more than 40,000 yen N64, it is refreshing to pay money, a set of consoles and games are all bought, and then pay a part of the consumption tax, 60,000 yen is gone......

The increase in transaction volume during this period of time made the store staff secretly happy, and Amiko even stood at the door, recording this group of numbers in detail, and their customer transaction conversion rate has finally improved!

Pu Yamauchi noticed the little girl, and when he came to the store manager's office, he motioned to bring Amiko in.

He looked at the notebook in her hand and asked kindly, "Little girl, what are you recording something?" ”

Of course, Amiko was nervous and excited, and she didn't think about the consequences at all, she respectfully handed the notebook to Yamauchi Pu, and let the store manager standing aside secretly complain.

This is something that cannot be seen by the president, and this kind of privately recorded number jΓΉ is not accurate and authoritative, and many of them are conjecture and speculation, and cannot be used as complete evidence.

Yamauchi Pu became suspicious of this set of numbers, and he tried to restrain his feelings, and asked in a deep voice, "What is the meaning of these numbers?" ”

The store manager desperately made her eyes signal that Amiko didn't tell the truth, but between the president and the store manager, Amiko still chose the former, she didn't see the store manager's eyes at all, and said it truthfully to Yamauchi Pu.

It's just that no one thought that this explanation would make Yamauchi Pu's heart, which was already full of depression, suffer a heavier impact, and after listening to this explanation, he didn't say a word, but leaned on his cane, walked to the rest area near the window of the store, and looked out intently, looking in the direction of the Sega flagship store.

The introduction and shopping in the store, the customers coming in and out, and the welcome and thank you for their patronage did not seem to affect the old man.

Only Amiko followed him nervously, explaining how she could tell which customers were coming from Sega, which were out of Nintendo, and which were just hanging out and were passers-by who had no purchase plans.

Yamauchi Pu sat quietly like this, and under the prompting of Amiko, he observed for nearly half an hour, and no one dared to disturb him.

Half an hour later, perhaps to confirm the veracity of Amiko's inference, Yamauchi slowly stood up, pushed open the door and walked out into the street, his driver and health care doctor was guarding the door, following him three steps away, and the two slowly walked in the direction of the Sega flagship store.

Seeing the president leaving, the store manager hurriedly trotted to Amiko's side and scolded in a low voice, "Why did you say everything?" This is all bad news, how can you say this to the president? ”

Amiko is still a little girl who is not sensible, and said aggrievedly: "It is precisely because of the problem that we have to find ways to correct our mistakes and work hard to improve!" The president has far more experience than we do, so should we hide this? ”

The reason is right, but this way is not right, the store manager didn't know how to criticize Amiko, she glanced at Yamauchi Pu who was getting farther and farther away, pushed Amiko, gritted her teeth and said: "You change out of your work clothes, go over and take a look, if there is anything wrong, call the store immediately!" ”

As Amiko hurried out of the staff changing room and ran to the store's door, she noticed that Yamauchi was standing in front of the Sega franchise store, chatting with customers coming in and out, and a staff member in a Sega uniform ran out and was talking to Yamauchi.

Amiko was in a hurry, her speed under her feet increased a lot, and she trotted all the way, she was afraid that Yamauchi Pu would suffer in front of Sega employees.

However, when she had just run ten meters away where she could vaguely hear the conversation, Yamauchi suddenly made a move, he raised the gentleman's cane, and waved it angrily, and when the customers and Sega employees were surprised to dodge, Yamauchi covered his chest with his left hand, bent uncomfortably, and slowly fell down.

The family doctor who followed him quickly rushed over, picked up Pu Yamauchi who had fallen to the ground, and opened the medical bag he was carrying with him for rescue.

Several employees rushed out of the Sega store, looking at this qiΔ“ vigilantly, and many customers also gathered around, pointing and pointing, and everyone was a little panicked.

Amiko's eyes were red, she choked and squeezed into the crowd, and when she saw Yamauchi Pu lying on the ground with a pale face, she couldn't help crying: "Call an ambulance!" ”

Things, it's a big deal! (To be continued......)
