Chapter 1658 Destroy Inventory

Yang Mi has come to London. She is now the chairman of Farfetch China, with a high position. It is said that she came here to negotiate a new plan with Farfetch headquarters to get the goods faster.

The company's development is not bad, and it's well-known in small circles, such as female stars, female models, female hosts, female peripherals, etc., all like to shop on it.

Not to mention the cheapness, you can also buy a lot of products that cannot be bought in physical stores. They are directly ordered online and sent from Europe.

The advantage is that the profit of a single product is high enough, but the disadvantage is that the scale is small, the delivery time is slow, and it cannot be popularized to the public.

Destined to be only a small company.

But this is also very good, Yang Mi is very satisfied with her current life.

Her role as chairman is more of a symbolic meaning, like a mascot, mainly for promotion and publicity in the entertainment circle, which is usually very easy.

So much so that she recently accepted a new play and plans to act in order to maintain her "star" status, strive for higher popularity, and promote Farfetch through her own influence.

Before coming to London, she called Zhou Buqi, but he didn't answer this call, and didn't wait for her, and went directly to Frankfurt to see Mr. Hope.

There is good news and bad news.

The bad news is that Hope doesn't quite agree with the commercialization of Zhou Buqi's conception of this worldwide football group. He feels that the cost is too high and he doesn't see profit prospects. He doesn't want to participate in the investment.

The good news is that he recognizes the competitive effect of this model. He does not participate in the commercial level, but is willing to cooperate in the competitive level. At the same time, he expressed his willingness to let Rangnick leave and let Rangnick build this football empire according to his own football philosophy.

After all, it paid off.

It's summer now, and Rangnick went on vacation with his family. He said that even if the sky falls, it won't affect his time with his family. What's the matter? Let's talk about it after his vacation ends on August 8th!
He refused directly on the phone.

Fortunately, Zhou Buqi also got to know some Germans, and seeing their straight-forward style, he was not surprised.

After leaving Frankfurt, we will go to Warsaw, Poland.

Second sister Shi Jingmei also came.

The production factory of the Chaowan Commune she started in Warsaw has reached the final stage of machine assembly and will be ready for production soon.Go see the effect.

Unexpectedly, when Zhou Buqi was about to leave at the airport, he suddenly received a call from Yang Mi, saying that she had arrived in Frankfurt.

Zhou Buqi didn't know what the goblin was going to do again, so he was a little surprised, "Where are you? I'm at the airport."

"Ah! I'm also at the airport. I just got off the plane! Which airport are you from? I'm at...well, the one in the city center. I don't know what it's called."

"Main Airport?"

"Yes, Main, that seems to be what it means."

"Where are you?"

"It's right at the door. It's not long since I got off the plane, and I haven't left the hall yet." Yang Mi was very excited and said, "Send someone to pick me up!"

Zhou Buqi had nothing to do with her, "Just wait there."

Fifteen minutes later, Yang Mi appeared in the private jet.

Her eyes are clear and bright, with curved willow eyebrows, and her long eyelashes are beating gently, as if she is looking for something, and her fair and flawless skin is slightly pink, suppressing the excitement that cannot be hidden.

Perhaps because she became the owner of the luxury clothing company Farfetch, her clothing aesthetics have been greatly improved. A short white top paired with high-waisted plaid straight-leg trousers makes the vision of a slender figure and long legs The effect is shown, at first glance it looks like a catwalk model.

Zhou Buqi saw her and waved to her, "Come here."

Yang Mi's eyes flashed, as if she hadn't seen her for a few years, she rushed over with a smile like a flower, and threw herself into Zhou Buqi's arms like a little girl, and then hung on the bed like an octopus. kissed him, and then intimately confessed their hearts to each other.

Zhou Buqi hurriedly hugged her so as not to fall off.

This is embarrassing!
It doesn't matter that there are two secretaries, Sun Guanran and Ning Lu, by her side, they are also well-informed.

However, Senior Sister Zhen Yu is also nearby!

She is relatively cold and restrained in this respect, and often actively avoids similar scenes.Probably this is the first time I have seen the heart-pounding interaction between Boss Zhou and the little star.

That's all, no matter what, Senior Sister Zhen Yu is her own.

However, there is a stewardess next to her!

Can the stewardess understand?

More importantly, the second sister Shi Jingmei is also there!

Depend on!
Now it's revealed.

They were all discovered by her.

As soon as Zhou Buqi turned his head, he saw the playfulness, absurdity, and a bit of contempt in her eyes.This is all right, no need to pretend to be serious.

The corner of Shi Jingmei's mouth curled up slightly, and her voice was full of guns and sticks, "Oh, are you two playing role-playing?"

Zhou Buqi ignored this, and signaled the stewardess to check Yang Mi's passport, and if there is no problem, she can take off to Poland.Then, he asked angrily, "Why did you suddenly come here?"

Seeing that he wasn't really angry, Yang Mi breathed a sigh of relief, and snuggled up to him like a bird, hugged his arm with both hands, and said with a smile, "I miss you."

Zhou Buqi didn't believe this kind of nonsense, so he snorted, "Tell the truth! Did you cause trouble?"

"How can there be?" Yang Mi pouted her lips and said bitterly, "Last time you took Bingjie and Reya to Dubai, but you didn't take me."

Zhou Buqi said: "That's going to work, how much trouble will you suffer if you go to Dubai in summer?"

"You guys also went to Hawaii. I saw Reyafa's Moments photos, as well as the small islands of Portugal and the Aegean Sea of ​​Greece. You are too partial."

"No preference, you are busy with work. You are already made the chairman, who do I love the most, and you still don't understand?"

Zhou Buqi patted her on the shoulder to comfort her.

However, he didn't believe Yang Mi's nonsense.

She ran over eagerly, with such a sweet mouth, there must be nothing good!

Shi Jingmei on the opposite side had knife-like eyes, and she became more and more contemptuous. She felt that this brother-in-law was not a good person, and his skin was unusually thick.

Zhou Buqi coughed, feeling ashamed that he had grown in love with his children in front of her, so he asked nonchalantly: "That... By the way, how much is the sales volume of the Manchester United blind box this year? ?”

"You don't know?" Shi Jingmei glanced at him, "That depends on Manchester United's statistics."

"What?"

Zhou Buqi was taken aback.

Shi Jingmei said: "Manchester United's data is sales data."

"Wait!" Zhou Buqi was taken aback, "You won't cheat on this, will you? You also make such a small profit?"

Data falsification is all too common.

Both China and foreign countries are the same.

For example, how many Manchester United player blind boxes have been sold in the world?Chaowan Commune can have a data, and Manchester United can also have a data.

Manchester United's data is related to royalties. The more they sell, the more they earn. The net profit of each blind box can reach 2 pounds.

However, the blind box sales in the global region are directly cooperated with agents by Chaowan Commune, so they can play tricks on the data.

For example, after selling 100 blind boxes, the data provided to Manchester United is 80 blind boxes... In this way, the profit of Chaowan Commune will be more, and the income of Manchester United will be less.

But this is completely unnecessary!
Data falsification, small losses make big losses!
Shi Jingmei said angrily: "Who made a fake? Don't slander people."

"That is how the matter?"

"There are returns and exchanges! The quantity shipped by Chaowan Commune is much larger than the real sales volume. Manchester United's data is the real sales volume, and the data from Chaowan Commune is only the factory quantity, and there are many defective products , Returned goods and inventory, these will be converted into the cost and destroyed in a centralized manner.”

"Don't destroy it, keep the unsold inventory. After a few years, this will become a collector's edition, and the price will be higher at that time. Take back all the inventory."

Zhou Buqi gave his own suggestion.

Shi Jingmei shook her head lightly, "It's not worth it."

"what happened?"

"Recycling the inventory scattered all over the world requires a lot of operating and transportation costs. When it is shipped, the quantity is large, and the cost of each blind box is very low. If it is recycled, the quantity There are very few, and the average cost is too high. It is better to destroy the returned goods, residual goods and inventories on the spot, and then re-produce at the factory, which can also create higher GDP and provide more labor opportunities.”

Zhou Buqi nodded, "Yes, evaluate the cost."

Yang Mi was taken aback, her beautiful eyes widened, "I read the news a while ago, it was said that Amazon had collectively destroyed goods worth 22 billion US dollars. I thought capitalists were abominable, so it turned out that it was so complicated."

Inventory, depreciation, defective products and returns are indeed the complexity of the manufacturing industry. Zhou Buqi is very interested in this matter, "How much is the sales volume? I am shocked by the data from Manchester United. The box business recorded 2800 million pounds. On average, a blind box can bring Manchester United a profit of 2 pounds, a net profit of 2800 million pounds, which means that the real sales volume is 1400 million?"

Shi Jingmei gave a soft "hmm", "It's about the same, less than 20% error."

Then, she took out her mobile phone, found the relevant data, and read it out.

Europe: 640 million shipments;
Asia: The Korean market shipped 320 million, the Southeast Asian market shipped 600 million, and the Chinese and Japanese markets totaled 82;
North America: 44 shipments.

Australia shipped 23.

At present, it is basically these major markets, with a total shipment of 1709 million.

In other words, about 300 million blind boxes will be wasted, and will be processed and destroyed in a centralized manner, which will be included in the operating cost of Chaowan Commune this year.

The production, labour, packing and shipping cost of each blind box is about £1.5, which means a loss of £450 million on this amount alone.

Fortunately, the profit of the blind box is high enough!

Every sale of a blind box in the UK can generate a gross profit of 3.0 pounds for Chaowan Commune.In Southeast Asia and South Korea, the profit of each blind box is about 2.6 pounds; in China and Japan, the profit of a single product is 2.5 pounds; in other regions that rely on the full responsibility of third-party agents, each blind box can also have a profit of 1.8 pounds.

In the past year, Manchester United earned 2800 million pounds relying on the blind box, which is the biggest winner.Chaowan Commune has undertaken more, but it is not much worse, and the operating profit of the product line has reached 2200 million pounds.
