368 The temptation of a million
Irina's office is located on the 22nd floor of the Ryanford headquarters building, and one level above is the office of his father, the president of the company.
Duchamp had visited this sacred place many times, but this was the first time he had entered.
Perched on the top of the city with an imposing view of the world, the headquarters of the company is one of only a few tall buildings of its era, and the headquarters of the company has always aroused awe.
I remember that when Lu first saw this house, a sense of inferiority arose spontaneously. There is also Xiao Zhengtai Lien, who sat on the escalator in front of the building four or five times before stopping.
Duchamp reminisced about the past and asked the security guard at the door to meet with Lord Irina.
Perhaps he was dressed too casually, and the security guard arrogantly asked him to wait outside the cordon, confirming the news with an internal communicator. After a while, he changed his polite face, politely led him to the president's special elevator, and personally sent him up.
Miss Irina's office is surprisingly simple.
"Irina, your office is big, but it's empty, why don't you get more things to decorate it?" Looking around at the empty office walls, Duchamp couldn't help but suggest.
"It doesn't matter, I've never been aiming to use this office anyway, maybe I'll have to move the office after a while." Irina disagreed.
"Hmm!" Duchamp noticed a look of determination on Irina's face.
"Okay, let's talk about it, what can sell for 1 million? You must know that even if it is a guide lamp, it has to be sold for a while. Irina asked impatiently.
"It's a bit special, and if you can convince the military and police to use it as a regular equipment, you can sell 600,000 pieces of it in a single person. If it is popularized in civilian use, it will take a while, but if it becomes a trend, it must be combined with the communication industry. ”
Duchamp gave a general explanation of the functions and applications of the pager to Irina. "With existing technology, instructions can be communicated directly to any level in real time. The empire may not be willing to give one to every soldier, but in order to achieve effective transmission of orders, it must at least be assigned to the lowest-ranking officers in order to form an effective information network. However, the police are highly mobile and must be manned if they are to be effectively liaison. In addition, it is also a must-have facility for busy merchants, such as the ability to transmit information about transactions on the stock exchange on a regular basis. If you do the math this way, it's not a problem to get to a million. ”
Irina interrupted Duchamp.
"You're missing one buyer, and you should count the 300,000 confederate troops across the country."
Private Army! Duchamp gasped, he had no idea of such a powerful force with the memory of the stubborn earth.
Irina recalculated the account and said with satisfaction: "As long as the military and police market is opened, the sales volume will not be less than 300,000 at least, and this is only domestic." How much does it cost to produce? ”
Duchamp squeezed his eyebrows: "It's just the lowest-end receiving device, I don't think it will exceed 300 meters, if you use the worst display and shell, 100 meters is possible." ”
Irina was pleased with the cost and asked, "So how many should we sell?" ”
"Between 900 meters and 10,000 meters."
"How much?" Irina was taken aback. "Styri, this doesn't look like your style!"
Duchamp had already thought through this question.
"A pager is something that you have to wear on your body every day, and in addition to the function of reading information, it must also have a decorative function. The black-shelled block made at the cost of 100 meters can only be equipped for the lowest soldiers in the army. Among the young people in the city, to launch fashionable and youthful styles, the surface needs to make fashionable reflections, women need to make fashionable cartoon effects, and men need a strong matte texture. Rich businessmen, if you don't put gems on them, you sell them for 10,000 or 20,000 meters, and people are simply embarrassed to take them out to read information in social situations. As for an elegant lady like you, of course, it must be made more exquisite, and in the design of everyday carries, the cost of the decorative role must far exceed its core function in order to satisfy human vanity. ”
"Shhh This time it was Irina's turn and she gasped.
Duchamp had his own reasons for making the pager in such a fancy style.
The popular style of Semriya is not as simple as that of the earth, and it is influenced by Qiyao, and the people here are accustomed to choosing bright and lively colors, both men and women.
On the streets, people like Duchamp, who are accustomed to wearing black, are often mistaken for 'mixed society' bad elements. The old-fashioned goods made into big black and small black that are made into models and mules are probably not liked by anyone except for some elderly people who are stable and steady.
Irina put Duchamp's ideas into the generation, and the estimated profit immediately multiplied several times, and she smiled from ear to ear. She asked in a rare negotiating tone: "Then which method do you think is more suitable for our cooperation?" ”
Royal sister, this time you finally didn't say 'I can only give you 10% at most' in a charity tone, which is really a huge improvement!
For a moment, Duchamp felt tears welling up in his eyes.
He threw out the draft he had already thought of:
"The special military models are uniformly produced and sold by Lane Ford Society, which are divided into officer models and soldier models, and I, as the product designer, charge 5% of the profit as a licensing fee, or you can buy it out for a fee in advance.
In terms of civilian products, I plan to divide the products into three categories: young and affordable models produced by Green Leaf Society, high-end business models and luxury models produced by Lane Ford Society, and limited edition jewelry editions designed by Patek Philippe, a magic jewelry brand. Through three brands of different natures, multi-party packaging is carried out to achieve the attraction of different groups of people.
In addition, we also need to find a company specializing in communication to cooperate, build paging stations all over the country, even if we need to invest, we have to start in Lulei and the imperial capital first, build the paging station business, I suggest that another company be set up to do it, separate accounting. ”
"Why do you need to design such a complex business model, and still need several companies to produce together and divide the market?" Irina was puzzled.
"It's hard to explain this question at once, but I think it's best for a company to only produce the same quality of things. In addition, don't you think that if several companies enter the market at the beginning, others will feel that 'the competition is already fierce', and thus reduce the possibility of coming to the market? ”
The corners of Irina's mouth curled, "Little slippery head!" She commented with satisfaction.
