nostalgic era

Chapter 189
In the world before Jiang Deming traveled, the price of the first-generation Walkman was 150 dollars.

But Jiang Deming is an upgraded version, and the built-in battery used is much longer than the battery life of the fifth battery.

In this case, the price increase is inevitable, just like when the IPHONE first came out, people never thought about going to the civilian market.

$150?That's not how you bargain!
Jiang Deming shook his head, and said word by word: "Two hundred knives will not be reduced by one knives."

The fat foreigner was a little disappointed when he heard the words, two hundred knives was already more than he could afford, and he reluctantly put the Walkman back in its original place, turned around and was about to leave.

Jiang Deming didn't stop him either, and said to himself, "Unfortunately, the record companies of Columbia and Warner have just agreed to authorize the production of a batch of brand new music cassettes."

The concept of music cassettes is not uncommon. Last year, Hannover started mass production. Some people already have a premonition that this will be a new mode of music transmission.

It's just that music cassettes are much worse than vinyl records in terms of sound quality and retention time.

Even in later generations, vinyl records are still at the top of the chain of contempt.

The biggest advantage of using a Cassette Walkman is that it is small in size and can be carried around with you. Just because of this, it seems that it is not unbearable that the sound quality is slightly inferior.

As a businessman, when the fat foreigner heard Jiang Deming's words, a scene immediately appeared in his mind: young people on the street each had a Walkman, wearing headphones and shaking their heads.

The fat foreigner was hooked by the prospect he imagined, and he couldn't move his raised leg.

Seeing his appearance, Jiang Deming raised his mouth slightly, hooked!
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the fat foreigner to sigh and turn around.

"190 knives, I want two thousand copies."

"No, 190 five dollars, minimum order of [-] units!"

What is the lion's big mouth?That's it!

The fat foreigner gritted his teeth and looked at Jiang Deming, and finally nodded fiercely.

In fact, the best thing is to win the exclusive agency rights, but he might not be able to afford the price. The Asian in front of him is too strong, and he doesn't look like a businessman at all.

It was not enough to reach an oral agreement, so Jiang Deming contacted the law firm that helped him obtain the patent and asked them to send a lawyer to sign a contract with the fat foreigner under the witness of the organizer.

1 Mi M195 Walkmans, each at $97, will complete the transaction within two months, with a total transaction value of up to $[-].

When the fat foreigner signed the contract, his whole heart was bleeding. The annual turnover of his department store, which was just established a few years ago, was only 70 dollars.

Note that this is turnover, not profit.

If he wanted to earn so much, he had to open at least a few more branches.

Fortunately, the deposit in advance was only [-] knives. Jiang Deming finally didn't dare to ask him to pay all the money in advance, otherwise the fat foreigner might treat him as a liar and walk away.

When the contract was signed, Jiang Deming found out that the name of the bully was Sam Walton, his eyes lit up immediately, and he looked more kindly at the fat foreigner.

This is the founder of the largest retail company in the world in the future!

I don't know if they will accept investment or not. Wal-Mart is still in its infancy stage at this time. If it can get the original shares of Wal-Mart, then future generations probably won't have to worry about money anymore.

The fat foreigner felt uncomfortable being stared at by Jiang Deming's eager eyes.

He now also knows that Jiang Deming is from Huaxia, and he is quite surprised that Huaxia can produce a walkman.

Due to the official propaganda of the ugly country, Huaxia has always been a representative of ignorance and backwardness in the impression of foreigners.

It wasn't until a few years ago, when they heard that they had succeeded in growing mushrooms, and that Ugly Country was beaten up in the north, that they started to look at this country seriously.

Times have changed, rabbits will bite people when they are impatient, and they are still the kind that can tear off the meat.

After seeing off Sam Walton, Jiang Deming continued to guard the booth, waiting for the next guest to come.

It's just that before the buttocks are hot, a thin foreigner with a cane came to the door.

He didn't ask what the Walkman was for, and said, "I want half of the amount Walton wanted for this thing just now!"

Jiang Deming looked at the skinny foreigner stupidly, this was the first time he encountered such a situation, could this be the legendary rich and self-willed?
Seeing that Jiang Deming didn't speak, the foreigner frowned and said, "I'll say it again, according to Walton's order, I want..."

Jiang Deming interrupted the foreigner with a wave of his hand, and said, "I know, I want half of it, right? This is a Walkman, and it costs two hundred dollars a piece. Mr. Walton ordered five thousand just now. Are you sure you can eat half?"

The skinny foreigner was startled. He only saw Sam Walton sign a single contract with Jiang Deming just now, and he didn't figure out what the purpose of the machines on this booth was. In his mind, things made by Chinese people can be expensive. where to go.

So without thinking about it, I came up and ordered half of Sam Walton's goods.

Purely because of trusting Sam Walton's vision.

Over the years, he has been doing this, but whatever Sam Walton does, he will do it together, Sam Walton's convenience stores have opened one after another, he is not bad, although not as good as Sam Walton Dayton, but because of this strategy, so far, he hasn't lost money.

It's only two hundred knives a piece, and if you order two thousand and five hundred pieces, it's not a small sum. The annual turnover of the department store he opened is just that.

His intuition told him that following Sam Walton would definitely not be wrong, but the amount involved this time was too huge, and he couldn't help hesitating.

After a sudden change in his eyes, the sweetness he had tasted after following the trend for many years still made him make up his mind.

After a while, the skinny foreigner said, "Then give me a thousand copies."

A thousand copies is not a lot, even if you lose money, you won't go bankrupt.

"But you have to give me a discounted price, two hundred knives a piece, it's too expensive!" The thin foreigner said this sentence almost gnashing his teeth.

Jiang Deming rolled his eyes, Sam Walton only gave a discount of [-] yuan when he ordered [-] units, you want a discount for ordering [-] units?I want to fart!

"No, just two hundred. If you have financial difficulties, you can come again next time."

"..."

Jiang Deming imitated the style of the owner of a certain claypot rice, which made the thin foreigner want to beat him.

But these foreigners are like this, if you are polite to him, he will not take you seriously.

When you are arrogant and put on airs, they will value you instead.

"Okay, one thousand units, I've ordered! When will it be delivered?"

"Two months." Jiang Deming said lightly.

The thin foreigner asked in amazement: "What? Why did it take so long?"

"The production capacity is limited. Walton has already ordered [-] units. Only when his products are sold out can it be your turn."

The skinny foreigner was speechless for a moment, but it would be good to let Walton verify the market first. Anyway, this is called the Walkman, which is the exclusive business of this Chinese manufacturer. If the sales are good, those who have ordered the goods have to be photographed behind him. .

Even if he can't sell it, he can cancel it, and at most pay a liquidated damages.

After figuring it out, the skinny foreigner feels that his mood has improved a lot.

Of course, it would be better if the hated Huaxia was replaced.
