The Industrial Kingdom of the Great Age

Chapter 80 Official Opening

This night was destined to be a sleepless night, since one person listened to the radio, naturally more people listened to it.

At Lao Huang's house, the two were about to do something embarrassing, but his wife wanted to hear a ghost story before coming.

"Don't do it, otherwise I will be too scared, what should I do?" Lao Huang was very helpless.

His wife ignored him and continued to listen, so Huang had to hide aside and wait.Suddenly his wife let out a strange cry and said, "Ms. Zhao is on the radio."

"What is Teacher Zhao?" Lao Huang asked with a resentful face.

His wife said excitedly: "It's your colleague Mr. Zhao Ming, he made the advertisement on the radio."

Lao Huang suddenly became excited, and hurried over to listen together, and then heard that it was Zhao Ming's store advertisement.He was dumbfounded immediately, and murmured: "Old Zhao is really amazing, he managed to do this in an advertisement. I'm going to watch him cut the ribbon tomorrow, so I'll just show my support."

His wife nodded repeatedly and said: "I definitely want it. I admire this kind of person who scolds the leader the most. Last time I was scolded by the director at work in the factory, I wanted to scold him back, but I still didn't dare."

Lao Huang said sourly: "You admire him, but you are still my wife."

……

Hao Bin, who was playing at Uncle Sun Yan's house, also listened to the radio. He didn't listen to the radio at first, but his uncle's son wanted to listen to it, so he listened beside him.

Then he heard Zhao Ming's advertisement, his eyes lit up, and he jumped up excitedly holding the radio.

"Uncle, come and listen to it, Zhao Ming's shop has put an advertisement on the radio." Hao Bin called Sun Yan directly.

And Sun Yan also showed surprise when he heard the advertisement. He never thought that Zhao Ming would be so big-hearted that he would advertise for a store instead of going to the radio station.He didn't know about the affairs between Commissioner Liu and Zhao Ming, he just knew that the higher ups were very supportive.

Sun Yan's son also heard the broadcast, and said with disdain: "I've heard of this store too, and I've heard from my colleagues that I'm afraid this thing won't last long."

As soon as these words came out, not only Hao Bin's expression turned ugly, but Sun Yan's expression also sank.One of them is Zhao Ming's colleague, and the other is the person behind the store's promotion. Naturally, they all hope that the store will be a success.

It's just that even Sun Yan, who is behind the scenes, doesn't have much confidence.He is also aware of the situation abroad. After hearing this suggestion, some people have brought up successful examples abroad.

But the situation in mainland China is definitely different from that in foreign countries, so he doesn't know the future of this store.

Uncle Lin also listens to the radio when he is bored at home, but he usually doesn't listen to ghost stories, but today, by accident, he tuned the signal to this channel, and then heard the advertisement of his store.

Originally, he planned to transfer him away, but after listening to all the advertisements, he was completely dumbfounded.

"Xiao Zhao is trying to get through the magic, and the commercials are all on the radio?" Uncle Lin suddenly became excited.

……

Time flies like water, and the next day will come soon.

"Nanfang Daily" published a piece of news this morning about the opening of Zhao Ming's store. Although it was not on the front page, there were still a lot of people who read it.

"Mr. Zhao Ming, a well-known assistant engineer, open a store after scolding the leader?" "

Such a title, and then the text below is a bunch of Zhao Ming’s deeds, which can be regarded as plagiarism, and then add something that he has never heard of, such as opening a store, and finally leave suspense, guess whether he will succeed, and express that he will stay tuned.

Even the "Nanfang Daily" reported it, and other local newspapers and news media also rushed out to find out what was going on. Then some people went out to investigate early in the morning, and some people went to Xilan Street.

And under the advertisements in newspapers and radio stations, many people also started to discuss it.

"Oh my god, Zhao Ming's street store is still advertising? Now I can't even get back the cost."

"Says like he can get it back without advertising."

"Actually, I am optimistic about him, Zhao Ming. It's just his store, so I don't dare to compliment him."

"It seems that this store is very interesting, I will go to see it later."

"That's right, even if I don't buy anything, I'm going to have a look."

……

In the gold and silver products processing factory, the manager's office on the second floor, several people came to ask for leave early in the morning. There was something wrong at home, the child was about to be born, and the reasons for the wife's remarriage came out.

Everyone knew that these people had nothing to do, they just wanted to visit Zhao Ming's shop.Among them, apart from sincere supporters, there are also some melon-eating people who just watch the excitement.

But Ms. Hu in the office is already gone. She didn't come to work at all today, but she got a call. The big boss decided to give the factory a holiday today, and everyone can leave.

Then many people cheered, but some people were dissatisfied.The more they work, the more they earn.They don't understand why the higher ups suddenly have a holiday?In this way, they will work one less day before the New Year, and earn less money by one day.

As for Zhao Ming's store, there must be some people who are not interested.

But it didn't matter anymore, Zhao Ming's former colleagues and some spectators from the office on the second floor all went there one after another.

Early in the morning, Zhao Ming and others arrived at the Sealand Department Store early.

The door of the shop was opened today, but there was a long red strip blocking the door, and a group of men and women stood separately outside the door, all of them were shop assistants.They have smiles on their faces, warming people in the cold and freezing weather.

Zhao Ming was standing at the door right now, and the street was already overcrowded, even the doorways of nearby shops were full of people, but the boss was not happy because they didn't come in.

It's all people who watch the excitement and eat melons.

Media reporters are also mixed in the crowd, and the cameras are always on standby.

"Neighbors, our store opens today, thank you neighbors for coming to support us." Zhao Ming saw that the time was almost up, so he was polite at the beginning.

Applause erupted from the crowd. Although they were not optimistic about watching the show, many people were willing to give Zhao Ming this face and applaud.

Zhao Ming nodded with great satisfaction, and then said: "The sun is shining today, all the nobles are here today, and our store is open today. Next, let's invite Ms. Hu, the manager of the gold and silver products processing factory, and Xiangyang Sandblasting Machine Manufacturing Co., Ltd." The owner of the factory, Mr. Xiang Yang, and the editor-in-chief of Nanfang Daily, Yao, came forward to cut the ribbon for the store.”

Then all three appeared and waved to the crowd, drawing cheers.

Zhao Ming originally planned to invite Commissioner Liu and others, but they are all officials and their status is very sensitive, so forget it.Others have worked with him, and some business owners bought the right to use it, but it was too far away, so they didn't come.As for Pang Wenjing, as the discoverer of this store, she was indispensable, but she was very busy, so Zhao Ming didn't bother her.

Zhao Ming's former colleagues, who were watching the excitement among the crowd below, saw that Ms. Hu actually cut the ribbon for Zhao Ming, and they immediately showed their wonderful colors, and everyone shouted very loudly.

No wonder Manager Hu didn't go to work, he was here to help cut the ribbon.

Some reporters or caring people noticed the third person.This is the editor-in-chief of Nanfang Daily. He even showed up to cut the ribbon for Zhao Ming. Does this indicate something?No wonder these days, "Nanfang Daily" publishes recruitment notices for Zhao Ming, and then such a strange news came this morning.

This is all hype! "Nanfang Daily" is helping Zhao Ming to hype!

The three separated Zhao Ming's two sides, and the four picked up the scissors and cut a section of the ribbon, held it in their hands and handed it to the clerk beside them. Everything went very smoothly.

Then set off firecrackers, drink a glass of wine, take a group photo, a simple interview, a short store introduction, and then the official opening of the store is confirmed.

The door opened, and the clerk returned to the store. Everyone had a smile on their face, shuttled around the shelves, ready to serve customers at any time.

After the ribbon-cutting was over, the three of Ms. Hu also left.

The guests and spectators outside the door also poured in one after another, and what they saw was a refreshing store, a model they had never seen before.

A wide variety of products are placed on the shelves in an orderly manner, and there are marked prices below.The goods here usually have to travel half of the city of Guangzhou to buy them all, but here they are all available.

Not only useful, but also food and drink.In short, it really has everything that one expects to find. Many people can see what they lack at home or what they are planning to buy almost in one step.

And what makes them feel embarrassed and warm the most is that these shop assistants, regardless of their status, will come over to ask if they need help when they see that they seem to want to buy something.

The smiles on their faces make it hard to refuse, and their light words make it impossible to shirk.

It was only an hour, and I was stunned...not a single item was sold.

Many people are happy to see so many goods that can only be found in Guangzhou city on weekdays, but looking at the prices, they find that the prices above seem to be much higher than those in the industrial zone.

Those who are better at mathematics can be counted on the spot, and they are [-]% more expensive than those in the industrial zone. Isn’t that an exaggeration?It's so expensive, how could anyone buy it?
So the vast majority of people just watched the excitement, walked around, and saw a lot of things they liked, but the price was much more expensive than the industrial area, so they shook their heads and walked away very reluctantly.

The behavior of these people naturally fell into the eyes of the clerk, and they felt helpless and bitter.It was Zhao Ming's idea to set the price so high. He thought it would be fine, but now seeing the reactions of the guests, it seemed that it was going to be over.

The price is too high, no one buys it.

Although this situation has been expected for a long time, the shop assistants still try their best to serve with a smile.Even they are still competing, so what if the price is a little higher, can't they still sell it?
The situation here naturally fell into the eyes of Zhao Ming and the core members of the store. Except for Zhao Ming who was still calm, everyone else couldn't stand anymore.
