Deng Liang is an avid digital product enthusiast, on weekdays, he is a freelancer, writing columns for several IT media, and he also has an identity, on the Internet is the moderator of the digital product group of the largest local community forum in Jianghai City, the screen name: I love Xiaolongbao. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Although after the repeated impact of Weibo and self-media over the years, most forum websites have long been no longer in the limelight, but there are always exceptions, Jianghai's local forum is one of them, there can be 100,000 unique IP total visitors every day, and the influence in Jianghai is no less than that of regular media. The digital product group is one of the most popular sections of the forum.

As a digital enthusiast, it is natural to pay attention to the infinite future company that has suddenly risen in the past year, as early as a few months ago, when the company released the rumor that it was going to build its first flagship store, Deng Liang was looking forward to it. Since yesterday afternoon, it feels like all of a sudden, the news about this flagship store has suddenly swept the Internet.

The first report he saw about the visit made him excited, and he reprinted it in the forum, not to mention, and discussed it with netizens who were also enthusiastic for a long time, and simply plunged into the Internet and watched all the relevant news and videos he could find.

That's why, Deng Liang will be waiting in front of Hall 8 of Binjiang Avenue at five o'clock in the morning. He saw that many reports were obsessed with the leisure area on the second floor, and he carefully found that there was a text mentioning that there were only 500 suspension seats, so he did not hesitate to set an alarm clock and rushed to line up before dawn. In this way, there were already more than twenty people in front of him.

At this moment, everything that happened in front of him made Deng Liang very glad that he had made the decision to get up early and queue up. Thanks to the efforts of a group of workers, the curtain that had been covering the exterior of the flagship store was taken down entirely, and the glasses and dislocated jaw were shocked.

A spaceship full of modern and sci-fi sense appeared in everyone's field of vision, like a space battleship in a science fiction movie, with a square bottom and round edges, and a silver-white metal veneer shining in the fading light, as if it were life.

It's no wonder that the curtain was not removed on the media day yesterday, and the big move was left in the present, thinking about it after a while, when there are more people, seeing such a scene, even people who don't want to go in will be full of curiosity. Deng Liang took out his mobile phone and clicked it, and then sent the picture to the community and his circle of friends. After a while, a friend who got up early or hadn't slept came to consult, and as soon as I heard him, I immediately decided to come over immediately.

As the time grew, the queue continued to expand, and by the time there was still half an hour before the official opening, the queue had already formed a long queue on the side of Binjiang Avenue. Deng Liang looked back, and there was no end in sight, at least a kilometer away. This situation is comparable to the enthusiasm of queuing for four or five hours in front of the popular exhibition halls when China hosted the World Expo.

The long queue also alarmed the local police station, and the Infinite Future Company greeted them a few days in advance, but the police station didn't take it too seriously, thinking that they would go over to inspect it when the door opened. As a result, before eight o'clock, the monitoring center of the city bureau called: there was a large number of people gathered on Binjiang Avenue, and they went to check the situation quickly. When several policemen arrived at the scene, they were immediately dumbfounded, calling for support while stepping forward to maintain order.

At 8:50 a.m., 40 minutes before the scheduled opening time, considering the large number of people in the queue, the first flagship store of Infinite Future Company opened ahead of schedule! Each batch of 2,000 people is entered, and each person is limited to two hours.

Deng Liang became the first audience to enter, and when he passed through the corridor in front of the entrance of the hall, his eyes lit up, although he had already seen the pictures, how could he be worthy of being there in person. In his opinion, the appearance of this flagship store and this corridor alone are enough to kill the set of many science fiction movies.

And the follow-up queuers who almost didn't make it to the first batch can only watch with envy and hatred as the people in front of them enter the flagship store, no, it's visual, it's more like they have entered a spaceship. The entrance door is not the same as yesterday's media day, and today's official version of the door adopts a downward opening to match the atmosphere, just right.

"Two more hours, wait?" A young couple failed to be among the first to enter, and the boy was afraid that his girlfriend would not be patient and waited, so he deliberately asked, even if he wanted to go very much.

The girl looked back at the long line and said firmly, "Wait! I just took a photo and sent it to Moments, and my friends in the circle knew that I was in the second batch, and they were all envious. Several people lined up far behind us. Moreover, I heard that the flagship store can order a pink selfie, and I have been thinking about it for a long time! ”

The boy silently glanced at the white selfie drone hovering over the girl's head, resisted the urge to complain, and pulled out a stiff smile, "Okay!" It's good if you're happy! ”

At the same time, on the Internet, keywords related to "spaceship flagship store" and "Binjiang No. 8" quickly fermented, and quickly rushed to the forefront of hot topics on search platforms and social platforms. Deng Liang obviously felt this enthusiasm, and under this news about the flagship store in the circle of friends, more than 50 people were asking for details, which became the hottest circle of friends he had ever posted.

Next, Deng Liang took pictures of the flexible metal positioning bracelet he wore when he entered the door, the enhanced version of the drone that can be interacted with, and the most conspicuous aircraft in the hall, and shared them with the circle of friends and his forum group. Resisting the urge to go to the product display area, Deng Liang rushed to the stairs leading to the second floor, and was unsurprisingly informed that each batch on the second floor could only receive 500 people, and each batch was limited to one hour. There are many people who think the same way as him, and if it is too late, it will have to wait for the next batch.

Deng Liang became the first batch of ordinary viewers to take the suspension chair as he wished, and now he finally had time to take pictures, with real virtual scenes, touchable projection screens, and cute robot waiters...... Every round of photos posted on the Internet has sparked heated discussions among a group of people, and many people have left messages:

"A proper black technology flagship store! I won't tell you that I'm already dressed and ready to go to the queue, and the 20-day record of not going out is about to be broken! ”

"Upstairs, if you want to come, hurry up, only put 2,000 people in each time, six batches a day. I came at 8 o'clock, and now it's in the third batch, and it is estimated that it will be full in the afternoon. ”

"I'm from the city next door, I really want to come, but after reading what was said upstairs, I won't be able to turn when I arrive."

"I'm also from the city next door, I happen to have two days off, I'll go to Jianghai now, live nearby tonight, and go to line up early tomorrow morning!"

"There are luxury hotels near Binjiang Avenue, upstairs Hao, is there a lack of pendants on the thighs? Do you want to be able to write in college? ”

……

In the era of national media, everyone who visits the flagship store is using various social platforms to convey the shock and surprise in their eyes to the circle around them. The sense of mystery that has been cultivated since it was never open erupts into endless heat when it exceeds expectations. The company's first flagship store of Infinite Future has become a complete hit.

By the end of the first day of business, the flagship store had received more than 10,000 customers, thanks to the help of the police to dissuade and evacuate the crowd at the end of the line. The store also sold nearly 1,000 drones, and the total sales exceeded 10 million yuan, and nearly 10% of visitors consumed real money, and the conversion rate was surprisingly high. If it weren't for the fact that the company now has too few hardware products to sell, the data would be much more beautiful.

***

In the software park, the small building belonging to Infinite Future Company is still brightly lit, and Chen Wenhao and a group of executives are still in a meeting. At the end of the year, the Yidong base will be completed, and the company's relocation is not a trivial matter, and the rest is okay, so the personnel changes caused by it are the biggest trouble. There are definitely people who don't want to change the city for development, so it is difficult to avoid the resignation, and the next step is to see if the company's efforts can minimize this loss. If it weren't for Jianghai City, he would definitely vacate such a large piece of land and buy it as a group base, and he would not have set his sights on neighboring cities.

The meeting came to an end, and the business status briefing on the first day of the flagship store was also sent to the work mailbox of the executives. After reading it, Jin Wei mentioned it a little regretfully, "The flagship store is a hit, and the various feedbacks collected by colleagues in public opinion monitoring are basically the promotion of our company's technology, but there are also many people who report that the area is too large, but unfortunately the products are a little small." ”

He looked at Chen Wenhao and said, "Mr. Chen, do you think you can add some exhibits?" Many cooperative enterprises have ordered smart modules from us, and before the flagship store opened, they offered to provide them free of charge, and the products with smart modules installed were exhibited in the flagship store. Now that they're done, they're definitely going to chase after them again. ”

Chen Wenhao thought for a while, "It is a fact that the product line is not rich enough, but the flagship store is not just a one-shot deal, and new products will continue to be added in the future." At this stage, you can promise several partners to exhibit their products, but we only display third-party products and do not provide sales support. ”

"Okay, even if it's a pure display, I believe that no cooperative chamber of commerce will refuse this opportunity, and the fee will be paid."

"To choose a product well, it must be something with scientific and technological content, and it is best to be able to make people shine. The purpose of our flagship store is to make money secondary, but to build a banner and set up a super large flag. Others like to build landmarks, but we want to make them a technology landmark. When someone wants to understand the development and trend of civil science and technology, they will think of our flagship store and our company for the first time, then the purpose of the flagship store will be achieved. ”

If Chen Wenhao wants outsiders to hear this, it is inevitable to say "some pretend", but it is his heart's words. Now, the company's main business is basically cash cows, there is no comparable competitor in the market, not only do not have to burn money to fight customers, but also have excess and stable income. If it weren't for that, there would be no need for the flagship store to exist.

However, from the perspective of expanding its influence, the flagship store has only officially opened, and it has already played an important role. It's not just a hot topic on the Internet, but it's really publicized in reality. It can be seen from the latest public opinion monitoring daily newspaper that today there are more than 20 Shangxing satellite TV in their respective news programs, either as technology news or as social news, broadcasting the situation of the first day of operation of the flagship store. Next, it is estimated that there will be more related reports, and many media that failed to react in the first time will also follow suit.

In the past, every time the company launched a new product, even if it was hyped on the Internet, it was also flat on TV and newspapers, and it was impossible for people to actively promote a product unless they put advertising money. If the Internet is the self-preservation of young and middle-aged people, then traditional media is still the main channel for older people to obtain information and information. The popularity and influence that covers all groups of people is what Chen Wenhao wants, and it is also related to whether the foundation of Infinite Future Technology Company wants to become a technology empire in the future.

Seeing that everyone had no objections, Chen Wenhao announced the adjournment of the meeting.

At this moment, the mobile phone screen suddenly lit up, and seeing that it was the number at home, Chen Wenhao immediately connected.

Dad's somewhat anxious voice sounded, "Son, your mother was hit by a bicycle, and now she has a sore foot but refuses to go to the hospital, you persuade her." ”
