Chapter 324: Terrifying Black Market Profits

A group of executives in the conference room were full of interest, and they couldn't help laughing, sure enough, no one in the world can escape the "law of true fragrance", when the "yellow cake" incident, human rights organizations in Europe and the United States protested in various streets, let the coastline company get out, and threatened to boycott the coastline products.

Now that the business of Coastline foreign countries has entered a "dormant period", PHC machines have become popular on the black market.

This fully illustrates a point, excellent products and unique, not afraid of no one dislikes, Europe and the United States are basically developed countries, it is not surprising.

Demand will inevitably give rise to supply, and the official supply channels are gone, and the black market will naturally come into being.

"What are the black market prices in Europe and the United States?"

Hearing a colleague's curious question, the sales manager himself couldn't help but have an expression of amazement: "Let's talk about a few typical, the black market price in North America has been speculated to 10,800 US dollars a set, and the black market price in Luxembourg in Europe has been speculated to a frenzied 11,600 euros a set, and they are in short supply." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone who was not present was dumbfounded, 11,600 euros, 10,800 US dollars, the real-time exchange rate was exchanged, the former was 90,000 yuan, and the latter was 75,000 yuan.

"Foreign underground suppliers who supply the black market have made a lot of money, and foreign media are reporting, but these news have been marginalized, and our coastline has been the focus of global news in the past six months, but there are statistics that since our overseas business has entered a 'dormant period' as of the end of January, 2.45 million sets of PHC have flowed into the hands of consumers in overseas countries, which has flowed through the black market, creating an average market of 28 billion US dollars, and the profit has exceeded 10 billion." At the end, the sales manager couldn't help but smack his lips.

"My God......" An executive was stunned when he heard the tens of billions of profits, and the expressions of others were also quite exciting.

"Their sources are ......," another executive said in dismay.

The sales manager replied directly: "Don't get me wrong, we didn't provide them with special purchase channels, they are all bought from our domestic offline stores, let's call it parallel goods on behalf of the purchase, North America has risen a purchasing boom, even if the customs tariff is deducted, but it can't stand the profits, some purchasing pictures have even formed a scale industry, as for how they pound the goods into other regional markets, I have no further in-depth follow-up investigation." ”

"Lao Yu, why didn't you tell me about this earlier?" Even Cheng Yangze was a little calm.

"I also sorted out the materials yesterday, and I'm about to report back to you." The marketing manager explained, but he still couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "It's too mad, 2.45 million sets have obtained a profit of 10 billion US dollars, and the total profit of our group company last year was only more than 37 billion US dollars." ”

In fact, everyone wants to explode and feel red, PHC on the black market can actually generate 58% profit, while the official profit of PHC sold by Shoreline Company is only in the range of 7~8%.

Sure enough, it confirms the famous saying of Capital: if there is a 10% profit, it is guaranteed to be used everywhere; With a 20% profit, it becomes active; With a 50% profit, it takes risks; For the sake of 100% profit, it dares to trample on all human laws; With a 300% profit, it dares to commit any crime, even the danger of hanging.

Cheng Yangze's heart moved, and he suddenly thought of a very disgusting strategy for Europeans and Americans.

At this time, the person in charge of the retail department said: "Lao Yu, you mean that you want to sell the inventory of nearly 2 million sets to black market dealers?" ”

Hearing this, Manager Yu said righteously: "...... Where does the black market come from, don't talk nonsense, people come to us with cash to consume, at most they buy on behalf of us, and the consumption is large, which can only show that middle-class consumers in Europe and the United States really favor our products. ”

"I believe you're a ghost, you're really bad."

"Hahaha!"

"Yes, at best, they are parallel imports, but they can't pass the tariffs in their local area, or how to buy them for their own use, it has nothing to do with us."

While everyone was teasing, one of the female executives in the meeting was still worried, saying, "Is there a risk associated with this?" In particular, will my company's reputation be negatively affected? ”

Manager Yu affirmed: "Of course there is a risk, and it is very big, but it is their risk, pay attention, we are selling in China, that is to say, this money is not foreign exchange, domestic sales, domestic shipments, domestic transactions, as for the consumer to buy so much why my coastline has no right to interfere, they can get to Europe and the United States, and we have something to do with it?" ”

It's the same thing to say that.

It can only be said that the benefits are too great, and 58% of the horror profits are enough for them to take risks, who makes consumers in Europe and the United States willing to buy even 90,000 yuan a set?

The customer's demand is the pursuit of the business, as long as the customer has the desire to appeal, there are naturally some powerful people to meet you and make a sum of money from you.

"But 2.0 is about to go on the market, and it's cheaper, and people are not stupid." So said one executive.

"Hehe......" Cheng Yangze said with a smile: "The most upstream source of goods is in my hands, isn't their purchasing method directly simple and rude to buy retail from offline stores?" Don't need to spend much brains, we just need to attach some restrictions to retail, 2.0 must hold your ID card to buy, good products are not afraid of no sales, for domestic end consumers to add an ID card conditions have no impact, can be ignored, but can hit those black market traders. ”

"Although they were able to obtain it through other means, it at least affected the speed at which they could buy in a big way. Engage in hunger marketing for another half a year, limit the shipment of 2.0, then they will be even more useless, and at the same time take the 2 million sets of products to the flagship store to continue to sell, without restrictions. ”

Everyone nodded in agreement, there is really no need to use too many brains, so those people can only retreat and turn their eyes to 1.0, the key is to be able to do so big business, the other party is not stupid, seeing that the coastline sales channel has such a restriction is equivalent to Yangmou, which is equivalent to saying: You help me clear this batch of goods first, and then I will lift the 2.0 restrictions.

As long as there is demand in the market, they businessmen don't mind eating this batch of goods.

The company's overseas business has entered a "dormant period", and the huge developed markets in Europe and the United States have no official sales channels or other sales channels, but consumers are very popular with PHC, and the black market is so profitable.

The scale of market demand is there, God knows whether the "dormant period" will end, and it is impossible for multinational giants like Coastline to really give up the international market, in other words, it will not last long to make a profiteering deal like PHC.

Take advantage of this time to make a fortune, if you miss this window period, you will have no chance, in case the coastline company returns in the future, it also means that this profiteering business is over.

With such a big benefit, some people take risks.

Cheng Yangze and the senior management at the meeting further detailed consultations on this matter, the backlog of nearly 2 million sets of PHC must be disposed of, worth hundreds of billions, if you don't deal with the coastline, you can't afford to hurt, just take advantage of the "dormant period" of overseas business, let European and American consumers eat these leftovers.
