Please make money.

Siam is because the operator license that Alia applied for was approved in seconds, and now she can also sell it with communication tariff packages.

But compared to these things, the sales department is more troubled by another thing -

……

……

“Smart appliances?”

Alia looked up from the pile of documents, confused: "Why is that thing out of stock?"

"Is there anything we don't have out of stock?" Sister Jing was busy: "Hurry up! Sign, sign, sign!"

"No, please let me finish reading it..."

Alia glanced at the document for a few seconds, then stared at the shipment figures for several seconds: "Is your number wrong?"

"Ah? What's wrong?" Sister Jing took it back and looked at it: "Which number?"

"Home appliance shipments, air conditioner sales in a single week 80 units - what's going on?"

"That's right. Eight hundred thousand."

"This is the off-season for home appliance sales. Besides, even if it is the peak season, our monthly sales volume was only this high!"

"Who should I ask if you ask me? That's why I said there was a shortage of stock! One million in stock is not enough!"

"Can I still stock up on durable consumer goods in large quantities? My warehouse isn't even big enough!"

“Then expand production!”

"...Wait a moment." Ailia picked up the phone and said, "Ask Mr. Liu Jin from the Electronics Sales Department to come over. Also, ask the Sales Department to write me a brief list of all sales data up to yesterday and bring it over as well."

"No, sister, you can ask them whatever you want to ask. Sign this quickly. I'll go talk to Uncle San about moving to another place."

"You can't expand production this way. What are you going to do?"

"I think OEM is quite suitable, let's find a contract manufacturer to do it."

"No, I know you're anxious, but don't worry, wait until they get here."

After a while, Mr. Liu and a capable young man came to Alia.

"Take a seat, everyone. Mr. Liu, what's going on with the home appliances? Why are there 80 weekly sales in the off-season?"

"Speaking of this, Miss, there may be something wrong with our design and price positioning."

"Be specific."

"The new air conditioners we make are new energy-efficient air conditioners. In addition, we had a small backlog of old energy-efficient air conditioners due to poor sales. However, our competitors are different. They have a large inventory. The pricing of new energy-efficient air conditioners is very high now. The price war is all for the purpose of clearing the inventory of old energy-efficient air conditioners. There is no way they can compete with us in terms of parameters."

"But we can't just look at the parameters! What about the brand reputation? We haven't made good achievements in the white goods industry for so many years. Are consumers blind?"

"The advertising and marketing department has hyped up the incident of you smashing the refrigerator, and the market response has been very good. Before our quality problems occurred, they probably remembered that Air Appliances was one of the top three in the industry, and the brand still has some credibility."

“…Is there a serious shortage of stock right now?”

"Not really." Mr. Liu scratched his face. "The marketing department estimates that the domestic sales volume this month should be around three million."

"So how much have we sold? How much stock do we have left?"

"We sold 800,000 units, and there are still 200,000 units left - a gap of 2 million units."

“…Isn’t this serious?!!”

"Yes, the air conditioner shortage is only two million. What's the big deal? After all, this is the estimated sales volume. If people can't buy it, they will buy something else."

Sister Jing next to her was very excited: "That's why I said to quickly expand production! Don't let others take over the market first!"

"Mr. Ai, don't get excited. I was planning to talk to Miss about the refrigerator."

Alia rubbed her forehead and said, "Wait a minute, explain clearly what you mean by refrigerator issue? Is the refrigerator out of stock?"

"It's not just refrigerators, air conditioners, refrigerators and washing machines. They are all in short supply. We are in short supply of 10 million air conditioners. We have received orders for more than million refrigerators. Currently, we have received orders for about million. The most important thing is washing machines... Our pricing may be too low. We have never seen such a cheap kg washer-dryer before."

"When you set the price before, did you say that we could make a profit at this price?"

"Yes, because you approved an extra budget for the mechanical and chemical department before, they spent some time to research the technology of the inner wall drum and the variable frequency direct drive motor, especially the variable frequency direct drive motor. Overall, our profit margin is actually not much different from before, but because we have reduced the number of different styles to only standard and flagship, the utilization rate of the production line is higher, and the corresponding costs are further reduced."

"How much do you need?" Alia took a deep breath. Too many lice won't itch, and too many debts won't worry. It's not a big problem.

"7." Mr. Liu picked up the teacup and took a sip, looking calm and composed.

"No, according to estimates, the others are out of stock by several million, but this one is only out of stock by 300,000. Are you scaring me?"

Ailia wondered if she had heard it wrong, or if Liu Jin was here to make fun of her.

And something was wrong. Was there something wrong with the washing machine? Why were only 70,000 units ordered?

"The other gaps are the gaps in estimated sales and inventory, but these 70,000 units are what you owe to your customers, Miss."

Mr. Liu looked at Alia with sympathy and said, "Miss, it's not that the terminal sales are short of 300,000. It's that the Aililai supermarket in Tianhai City, which has already placed orders and paid deposits, is short of 70,000 units. The money is already in the account. You can do whatever you want."

"……ah????"

306-Ai Ma's mouth, a lie

There is nothing, nothing is there, nothing is enough.

Alia's confusion comes from her incomprehension of why the world is so crazy, but she forgets that she is the culprit of the dimensionality reduction attack.

That is to say, is it possible that she turned spot goods into futures and it was not the consumers' fault, but her own fault and she deserved the punishment?

After all, when similar products on the market are still competing on price, she is competing on experience in addition to price, and consumers are not stupid, they vote with their feet!

……

……

"Like this!"

Sunika proudly showed her mother her trick: "You just throw these in, and then on your phone, you can see the options!"

Sonica's biological mother, the mother who had seen everything in the department store, just wanted to say that the little girl was spending money recklessly every day.

"Buying everything will only hurt you!"

"Oh mom, you don't understand, this is really amazing, look, I threw in six pieces of clothing, right?"

"Um……"

"Then you see, here on the washing machine, it shows that I have added clothes, and now it asks me what type of clothes it is."

Sunika poked at her phone for a while, three shirts, two business skirts, and a dress.

"You tell the washing machine and it will wash your clothes? Even if you don't tell it, it will still roll up!"

"Please read this first. Here, there is an algorithm that tells us how much detergent to use and what washing mode to choose. Because I have a shirt, it recommends washing at room temperature to avoid staining the shirt... and the detergent... um... you see, this one also tells me how much standard detergent I should put in this bottle cap!"

Following the rather intuitive bottle cap prompt on her phone, Sunika poured one-third of a bottle cap of laundry detergent into the matching bottle cap, and then poured it into the washing machine.

"Very good, the next step is to start washing--"

"……That's it?"

"Yeah, that's it, but don't you think it's cool? It's exactly what I imagine a smart home appliance to be!"

Sunika's mother crossed her arms and watched coldly for a while. She didn't realize how advanced it was, but it didn't seem to be completely useless.

"It will also remind me to hang the clothes out to dry. If I forget to open the lid for a long time after washing, it will be like a phone call telling me that it's time to hang the clothes out to dry!"

"……good."

"Then, I can see the climate here and remind me what is suitable for washing and drying in this weather and what is not suitable for washing."

"I'm your mother, right?"

"Oh, who told you not to be here - Mom~"

Sunika swayed on her old mother's arm, and her mother groaned, coming out of the subtle feeling of having her position replaced.

"Okay, the washing machine is indeed somewhat useful, and it's worth it that you've just replaced it again and again. I've also seen the air conditioner, but if you ask me, it's still a bit power-consuming."

"No, it's so hot outside on a hot day. I have to turn on the air conditioner when I get home. How inappropriate! It can be turned on remotely!"

"Automatic switch, doesn't it just waste electricity?"

"What about the return of the south wind? The humidity is too high during the return of the south wind, and it will remind me that it is time to dehumidify. Isn't that good?"

“…That’s all.”

"Haha, that's all. I remember when I was in my hometown, there was a ditch behind the house. My skirt fell under the bed and rotted after a month. It was so humid that I got eczema every other day. What did you say then? You kept saying that it would be great if there was something that could automatically adjust the humidity. Now you don't agree with that!"

"Okay, okay, okay, I say one thing and you say ten things, it's not over - refrigerator! Show me your refrigerator, what's so amazing about it?"

"I can put the ingredients in and scan the supermarket's payment code directly, and it will know how much it weighs and when it was bought, and remind me what vegetables are ready to eat."

"how did you do that?"

"I don't know either, but at the moment it seems that only the products bought from the supermarket can be scanned this way - oh, and it can also provide me with lazy recipes for the ingredients I already have."

As she spoke, Sunika took out her cell phone and directly clicked the "Random Ingredient Combination Recipe" button, and then several home-cooked dishes popped up.

Scrambled eggs with tomatoes, shredded potatoes with green peppers, fried meat, and seaweed and tofu soup.

"Hey, Mom, how about we make this for lunch? These ingredients are enough."

"...Are you sure it's enough?" The mother looked at the phone suspiciously and didn't trust this thing.

Of course, it should be said that she did not trust Sunika's ability to take care of herself.

This girl is the type who works for three days and rests for two days when it comes to buying vegetables and cooking. She can buy a lot of vegetables on a whim and thinks she's going to be a great chef, then she wastes a lot of time to cook a few dishes, and the remaining ingredients are put in the refrigerator for ten days or half a month.

The last time she came to visit us, she found peas from before the Chinese New Year and frozen meat from who knows how many years ago in the freezer. It's hard to describe.

To put it bluntly, the food in her refrigerator has probably been in this house longer than she has been a resident.

Those who knew her would think that she forgot to cook. Those who didn't would think that this guy must be very rich to spend money to find a special single room for the frozen vegetables in the refrigerator...

Sunika's mother still felt sorry for her daughter, so she cooked the meal herself, then wiped her hands and asked, "You said it knows how many dishes you have."

"OK."

"Well now that I've unpacked it, there are still some scattered bits left. Does it know?"

"I don't know, but I can tell it. Just type it into the phone."

"…What if you forgot?"

"Then forget it."

“Isn’t this unintelligent?”

"Mom, it's only three thousand yuan." Sunika looked at her own mother with sympathy: "Three thousand yuan is not enough to hire a full-time nanny, not to mention that they also provide a special food scale, so you can at least input an accurate value. If you are not willing to do this, then there is nothing I can do."

"Don't you think they could make this lining to automatically detect weight?"

"Of course it's possible, but the cost is high. Maybe we'll do this in the future."

Sunika doesn't understand what the industrial design department is thinking, but it's great for now.

She patted her belly contentedly, feeling full after eating and drinking, and then she pulled out two boxes from under the table.

"Hey, I got my overtime pay this month, and this is a gift for you guys. It's hard to grab one, so I had to ask a colleague for help to get one more."

"what?"

"Mobile phone, this one is for you, A1, this one is for dad, he can't type, so let's use handwriting, A1-Note, I mean, this handwriting input method is the best I've seen in China, it's absolutely convenient to use."

Sunika's mother poked her daughter's head and blamed her for spending a few cents, but she still accepted the gift.

I bought it with my daughter’s overtime pay. She felt distressed when she heard it: “Are you tired from working overtime?”

"I'm tired. Working overtime makes you tired. I'm so busy!"

"If you can't do it, then don't do it. Your health is more important."

"...Mom, do you know how much my overtime pay is this month?"

"How many?"

"I have already received more than 7,000 yuan, which is higher than my salary. I will have to work overtime later - it's only during the two days of delivery, so I can take a break."

Well, the people who have to work overtime these days are the sales staff, because the advertising and marketing department has been bullied by them.

What do you mean by uppercut to boost sales? Did your advertising department just uppercut someone right on the chin and knock them out?
