Dai Li and their booth was so conspicuous that as soon as Yundu employees arrived at the exhibition, they could see Wu Xuelin making preparations before the exhibition.
Some Yundu employees covered their mouths in surprise.
"Snow God!"
"Could it be that the long line yesterday was from the Snow God's company?"
"I was just wondering if Snow God was also selling power banks, and if theirs were selling like hotcakes, I was actually right!"
As they chatted, they thought of the meeting that Song Ji had called for last night.
They didn't see Song Ji, so they asked the marketing director.
"Mr. Liang, didn't you mention in the meeting yesterday that you were planning to collaborate with them on energy storage power banks? Have you already finalized this with Snow God?"
"We did talk about it..." Director Ling looked embarrassed.
"The Snow God disagrees?"
"It's not that Wu Xuelin disagreed. He agreed quite readily. I just don't know what Mr. Song was thinking. He suddenly changed his mind and decided not to cooperate with Energy Storage. Let's sell it today just like we did yesterday."
The employees of Yundu were relatively speechless.
They were not that stupid and did not think that Song Ji would give up the cooperation temporarily. Something unexpected must have happened and Director Liang did not tell the truth.
Not long after, Song Ji, who had disappeared just now, appeared from somewhere. However, his expression was uneasy and it was obvious that he was in a bad mood. This made the employees of Yundu very cautious and they dared not even breathe.
This directly affected the atmosphere of their booth. Passersby didn't want to go in and walked past their booth in a hurry.
In sharp contrast to them is the cat power bank next door.
Before the event even started, there was already a queue outside.
Some people came here because of its reputation, while some people didn’t buy it yesterday, or bought it yesterday but felt that it was not enough, so they planned to stock up on another batch of goods today.
"It's horrible. There's still half an hour before the exhibition starts, and people are already lining up for more than 200 meters outside." Sister Tu took a look through the crack in the exhibition door and was already shocked by the workload today.
Dai Li: "This shows that our energy collector has become famous."
Wu Xuelin: "Then we can sell the other styles today, right? Otherwise, I will go back to the company and get them now?"
Dai Li was very pleased with his business acumen and nodded with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work. Please also bring the advertising billboard."
Wu Xuelin grabbed the car keys and went back to the company to pick up the goods without saying a word.
"What other styles are there? Other animal shapes?" Sister Tu has a lot of things to do every day. Plus, she doesn't understand professional matters, so she really doesn't know how many things Dai Li and Wu Xuelin have come up with in total.
There were a lot of things, and Dai Li couldn't finish explaining them to her in a short while. She could only say to her: "It's not the same as a power bank. You'll know what it is for when you see it later."
Wu Xuelin recruited several classmates from his school to work as temporary workers. They quickly moved the company's goods in and also helped to receive business at the exhibition.
The three of them finally didn't have to be as busy as they were yesterday and could have a clear division of labor.
Dai Li does the accounting in the back, Sister Tu is the cashier, and Wu Xuelin is responsible for reception and sales.
The exhibition opened on time at 9 o'clock, and the long-awaited customers swarmed into the exhibition hall and went straight to the Maomao Power Bank.
The people at the front of the line started placing orders in a flurry before they even reached the booth.
"Is there a purchase limit today? If not, I want to buy 10!"
"I want 20, two of each color!"
"I want 40 of them without any patterns!"
Wu Xuelin made a soothing gesture and advised everyone to calm down first.
"Everyone, please wait. Before we start business, I want to explain to everyone that this is not called a power bank. The official name is an energy harvester."
"What energy collector? Aren't they all used like power banks?" The young man in the front row just wanted to buy something. He didn't care what the official name of the thing he bought was.
Wu Xuelin: "Of course they are different. Power banks can only store input power and output it to mobile devices, so their use scenarios are very limited. But ours is an energy harvester. It can collect energy generated by you when you are moving and walking, as well as energy from animals, flowers, plants, the sun and other natural sources. It is equivalent to our energy harvester collecting energy all the time and converting it into electricity. Simply put, as long as the device is not broken, you will never need to recharge it."
Dai Li and Wu Xuelin had already agreed that as long as the energy collector was sold well and customers were willing to repurchase, they would explain the principle of the energy collector to customers.
With prior experience, customers are more likely to believe in the working principle of the energy harvester, which is more convenient to stimulate their desire to buy and can better sell a series of supporting equipment.
For them it kills three birds with one stone.
Wu Xuelin's explanation caused a lot of discussion among the customers.
"What do you mean by harvesting the energy we generate when we move? Can I generate energy just by walking?"
"I've only heard of consuming energy, but this is the first time I've heard of generating energy."
Wu Xuelin: "Not only can you generate energy by walking, but even talking can generate energy. It's just a matter of how much energy there is. But our energy harvester will not let go of it. It will store all of it to ensure that the energy harvester is always fully charged."
The customers pondered it for a while and found that it seemed to be true.
After they bought the cat power bank home, no matter how they used it, whether it was to charge their mobile phones, tablets, or electric cars, the battery was almost always fully charged after use.
They thought that the cat's power bank had a large storage capacity, but after hearing Wu Xuelin's explanation, they realized that it was actually collecting energy from nature.
Some customers understood the principle quickly, while others never fully understood it.
"I just can't understand how little energy there is in nature. How can we collect it all?"
"Nature's energy is enormous. It's easier to understand if you think of it as solar energy."
"Hey brother, now I understand what you mean by solar energy. It turns out it's pretty much the same as solar energy."
"But I think it's better than solar power. Solar power charging is too slow and depends on the weather."
Seeing that the preparations had been made to a certain extent, Wu Xuelin began to recommend new products to customers.
"Our energy harvesters also have a wider range of applications. We've found that many people buy our energy harvesters not only to charge mobile devices, but also to power large devices such as electric vehicles, battery vehicles, and outdoor power supplies."
A customer who wanted to buy 40 energy harvesters agreed: "Yes, I drive an electric car. I can never get a parking space with a charging station, so I have to run a wire from the 14th floor of my house. My parents keep asking me to sell it and buy a gasoline car."
Many people nodded in agreement.
"Your community allows people to pull cables from their homes, but ours doesn't allow that. We have to pay every month to park in front of other people's shops. Whether it's a weekday or a weekend, we have to move our cars before they open for business."
"I rode my electric scooter to work, but it ran out of juice and stopped moving halfway. I pushed it all the way home, which took more than half an hour."
Wu Xuelin smiled with satisfaction at the huge response. "We anticipated people like you who drive electric cars a long time ago, so we prepared this energy harvesting board for you."
He placed an energy-harvesting board, about the size of a chocolate bar, on the countertop.
"It has slow charging and fast charging ports. If you want to solve the problem once and for all, you can also replace the battery of your electric car with an energy harvesting board, and you will never need to charge it again."
Everyone gathered around the energy collection board in amazement.
"You mean, this board can be used as a battery?"
"Can your energy harvesting panel be placed in a car to harvest energy?"
"How much electricity can such a small piece store?"
Wu Xuelin: "We have designed positive and negative electrodes on the energy harvesting board. You can just go to a car repair shop to replace it. The energy harvesting board integrates 20 energy harvesters. You don't need to worry about the amount of electricity it can collect. By the time you use it to replace your car, the energy harvester will have more than enough electricity left."
It is hard for electric car owners not to be tempted when they hear about such superior performance.
"How much is the energy harvesting panel?"
"Exhibition discount price, 6998."
This price is not cheap, but it is nearly a thousand yuan cheaper than buying 20 energy harvesters separately.
Moreover, after replacing the battery with an energy collector, you can save money on paying for electricity bills at charging stations, no longer have to worry about power, and you can turn on the heating in the cold winter and the air conditioner in the hot summer.
For only 6998, you can improve the happiness and sense of security of electric car owners.
This deal is really too good to be true!
"I don't want a power bank anymore, give me an energy harvesting board!"
"Is there a purchase limit? If not, I want the third board!"
Wu Xuelin smiled with satisfaction and said calmly, "We not only have energy harvesting panels suitable for electric vehicles, but also other models. We have large energy harvesting panels for home use, and mobile power strips with sockets, including replacement batteries for mobile phones..."
Daili has made about 10 products in total, suitable for different scenarios and equipment, but all of them are closely related to life.
These suggestions were made by Wu Xuelin. Dai Li originally only wanted to make power banks, but making too many types would be too time-consuming and she didn't have enough energy alone.
But things were different after Wu Xuelin came. All the tedious work could be left to him.
So the two people who both wanted to make money discussed and selected some of the most commonly used products in life.
They are not afraid of trouble and insist on making different models of products. Their main purpose is to make money, because the larger the energy collector, the higher the profit.
The facts turned out to be just as they expected.
We were only open for two hours this morning, but our sales have almost caught up to our entire day yesterday.
Sister Tu’s hands were sore from beating people that she no longer had the excitement she had when collecting money yesterday. All that was left was numbness.
She only sat down to rest for a while during lunch.
"So you guys have quietly come up with so many things?" Sister Tu is in charge of the cashier. She knows it best. Power banks still have the highest sales volume, but the biggest money-makers are the large energy collectors.
Sales volume is six times that of power banks!
Dai Li smiled and said, "Didn't I tell you that making money is easy? I promise that I will never let you worry about not having enough money in the company again. You can spend the money freely and buy whatever you want."
Sister Tu was so moved that she hugged her and said, "Daidai, you are so handsome. I have waited all my life, but I didn't wait for a man to say this to me. I waited for you to promise me food and clothing, money to spend freely, and I really want to marry you now."
"I let you spend my money as you please before." Dai Li was helplessly hugged by Sister Tu. Why had she never seen Sister Tu so moved before?
"That's different. Before, you had no money, and I was the one who scrimped and saved for you. Now you're truly wealthy. Not to mention the sales revenue of the past two days, the orders alone are enough to cover our company's expenses for the entire year. It makes me want to marry you."
But what Sister Tu never expected was that this was just the beginning. People would soon come to give her money, which would be completely incomparable to their current turnover.
In the main exhibition area where they were, there were mobile phone brands on the left, game consoles on the right, and computers in the exhibition hall beyond.
We are all electronic devices. In addition to the product experience and software performance, the other most important factor is hardware, and battery life is also an extremely critical factor.
After entering the Internet society, the time people spend using electronic products has skyrocketed, so everyone has a power bank.
In today's fierce competition in the electronic product market, if a company has the best battery life, it will definitely stand out among the many brands.
Wu Xuelin's publicity not only attracted customers, but also executives of major brands in the exhibition hall, who hurriedly reported the news back to headquarters.
Maomao power banks have become very popular online these days. A quick check will show that people who have purchased them have given them 100% positive reviews, so they are definitely worth cooperating with.
Big brands have many decision-makers, and one person cannot make a decision, so it can only be reported up the chain of command. The procedures are complicated and the efficiency is slow, so the executives on site can only worry.
At this time, the superiority of small brands is reflected, and the boss can make the final decision alone.
After hearing the employees’ report, the CEO of U+ Mobile drove to the exhibition hall in person.
Yang Fan hurried all the way and finally arrived at the exhibition within an hour.
After he arrived, he did not go directly to talk to Xu Neng, but first asked U+ employees for information.
He stuck out his lips in the direction of Yundu's phone.
"Has Song Ji made any moves? Did he go to discuss cooperation?"
U+ and Yundu are old rivals. Their brands are about the same age, have similar prices, and have highly overlapping target audiences. They have been compared since their inception.
U+ has been taking a steady and cautious approach, starting with low-end phones and now slowly moving on to mid-range phones, with everything going smoothly.
Song Ji was a bit idealistic and always liked to fantasize about things that he was not capable of doing at the moment. He was also too rigid and inflexible, which led to a broken capital chain and he almost went bankrupt. Later, it was heard that he recruited a technical talent who helped Song Ji solve the technical problems, and his company was able to come back to life.
It is now gaining momentum and is showing signs of surpassing U+.
However, yesterday, Yang Fan asked someone to buy the actual Yundu machine and found that it was completely different from the concept machine. He breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the technical talent that Song Ji treasured was just like this and still couldn't turn the tide.
The sense of crisis that had troubled Yang Fan for nearly a year was no longer so severe.
The reason why he rushed over here as soon as possible today was that he was afraid that he would miss the opportunity to get the energy collector, and Song Ji would get it first, get the exclusive supply, and continue to catch up with U+.
The employee said, "No, Mr. Song from Yundu hasn't responded yet, and I think the atmosphere is not right today."
Yang Fan: "That's normal. The actual phone they made is far inferior to the previous concept phone. They still want to grab the market with this? Wishful thinking. Sales were not good yesterday. I saw that the online response was also mediocre. People were criticizing them for only being able to tell stories but not making phones."
He felt that Song Ji was hit by the market and probably had no mood to compete with him for cooperation right now.
Yang Fan didn't avoid anyone on purpose when he went to the energy storage booth, and passed by Yundu's booth with confidence.
Others may not know Yang Fan, but Song Ji is in the same industry as him and has been his competitor for many years, and they have met on many occasions.
After meeting each other, both sides naturally had to exchange pleasantries.
"Boss Yang, you're here today too?"
"I'm here to discuss some cooperation," Yang Fan pointed ahead, "I'll go over first. Mr. Song's business is booming."
Without Yang Fan saying it directly, Song Ji knew who he was going to discuss cooperation with.
Sure enough, Song Ji walked straight towards the energy storage and called out to Wu Xuelin.
Wu Xuelin: "Are you saying you want to cooperate with us and order a batch of your cell phone-sized energy harvesters?"
Yang Fan: "Yes, it would be even better if we could get exclusive supply."
Dai Li: "Exclusive? As long as you can afford the exclusive patent fee, I can sell it to you exclusively."
Seeing that the other person was so young, Yang Fan hesitated: "Who are you?"
Sister Tu: "This is the boss of our company and the patent holder of the energy harvester."
Yang Fan's eyes immediately turned to admiration: "Nice to meet you, nice to meet you. I didn't expect your company's boss to be so young. What's your name?"
Sister Tu gave him a business card, and Yang Fan immediately took out his business card to exchange with her.
Yang Fan: "I just heard President Dai mention exclusive patent fees. How are they charged?"
Dai Li didn't say anything. She just took the calculator next to the cash register, punched in a number, and showed it to Yang Fan.
Yang Fan swallowed his saliva and just wanted to say that he was the one who disturbed them.
Dai Li put down the calculator and said, "You don't need much. There's no need to dominate the market. The smartphone market is too big for you to take it all in."
Of course Yang Fan also knew this truth. Now he thought that he was impulsive. He dared to ask for exclusive supply for just a few dollars from the company.
"To be honest, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. I was too naive. I wanted to monopolize the mid-range market, and I was afraid that rival companies would also cooperate with you and take away our market share."
"Rival?" Wu Xuelin couldn't help laughing. "Are you talking about Yundu?"
Yang Fan was surprised and asked, "How did you know?"
Of course Wu Xuelin knew.
Although Yang Fan didn't know him, Song Ji often talked about U+ and Yang Fan, and he was very familiar with Yang Fan's face.
Wu Xuelin: "I used to work in a technology company, and I've heard of Mr. Yang."
Yang Fan was pleasantly surprised and said, "So we're in the same industry. I wonder which tech company you used to work for, little brother?"
Wu Xuelin raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Your opponent, Yundu mobile phone."
The expression of surprise on Yang Fan's face froze in an instant.
Wu Xuelin: "Song Ji fired me and now he doesn't dare to face me. He won't come to my company for cooperation again, so you can rest assured. As long as I am here, Yundu Mobile will not be a rival to your U+."
Yang Fan felt that if Song Ji had fired an ordinary employee, he would not be afraid to face him.
Yang Fan: "Excuse me, what's your name, young man?"
"Wu Xuelin."
Yang Fan was shocked.
He was very familiar with this name. Wasn't he the technical talent who had helped Song Ji's company revive and successfully raise funds?
Yang Fan: "When were you fired?"
Wu Xuelin: "About a month."
Yang Fan: "What about the current Yundu phone?"
Wu Xuelin: "It has nothing to do with me anymore."
The doubts that had once lingered in Yang Fan's mind were now suddenly resolved.
No wonder there is such a big difference between the actual Yundu phone and the concept phone, no wonder there are more and more bugs in Yundu phone.
It turns out that everything has a traceable path.
Dai Li: "Boss Yang, we may not have time to talk to you in detail today. How about we make an appointment another day to sit down and talk in detail?"
"Okay, okay, you guys are busy. I'll come to bother you another day." Yang Fan responded with a smile. After learning about the discord between Song Ji and Wu Xuelin, he was not in a hurry at all.
On the way back, Yang Fan secretly regretted that if he had known earlier that Wu Xuelin was fired, he would have recruited him to U+. He personally admired the system program written by Wu Xuelin very much.
He walked back with a happy face, and Yundu’s employees couldn’t help but see it.
"Mr. Yang, have you finalized the cooperation?"
He had only been there less than five minutes.
Yang Fan looked at Song Ji and smiled meaningfully: "It's settled. Their energy storage people are very easy to talk to. Whether it's their President Dai or Wu Xuelin, they are both very enthusiastic people. I believe our future cooperation should be very pleasant."
He waved: "Mr. Song, you guys are busy. See you later."
Song Ji is so busy that there are no customers at all. He is almost dead from boredom.
After returning, Yang Fan just casually complained about Song Ji firing the technical director, saying that he was short-sighted and had no sense of the overall situation. No wonder he had almost bankrupted Yundu before.
But he didn't think that there is no wall that is impenetrable in the world. Soon everyone in U+ knew that Song Ji had fired the technical director.
The news spread very quickly and was even posted online by U+ people, and finally Yundu’s users and fans also knew about it.
[Even dogs drive better than you]: Mr. Song, can you really fire the technical director before the release?
[Leading Four Pigs to Kill Five Dogs]: You can fire anyone, but you fire the technical director. I was wondering why the actual device I got was different from the reviews I saw. I thought the test blogger took money and spoke against his conscience/rolling eyes.
[Xiaoyang V who loves to test]:
“I’m a test blogger, but I can guarantee with my three million followers that I won’t take a penny.
In fact, I really believe that Yundu has changed its technical director. I got a Yundu test machine three months ago, and it was really great to get started with. The native system is super fun to use. For details, you can watch my video a month ago.
But since I posted the video, the new version of the system was automatically updated in the background of my phone. I have to say a dirty word here, it's so fucking difficult to use. I have encountered lags, flash backs, warm screen freezes, and I can't flash back to the original system.
Now the system has to automatically update at least one version every day. In fact, when one bug is fixed, two more bugs will appear immediately, and the user experience is very poor.
I have been using Yundu phone for the past two months, and at the beginning of the year I made a bold statement that Yundu phone would be my favorite model of the year. Now it is in my drawer, and I don’t even want to touch it.
I just want to ask Yundu, when can I restore the original system? If not, can I get a refund? "
The review blogger named Xiaoyang received many likes for his comments, which helped his Weibo post become popular and a trending word.
#Can I get a refund if I can’t swipe back to Yundu? #
People who bought Yundu phones and couldn't use them properly asked Yundu to refund their money online.
Yundu’s employees discovered this hot word while slacking off at the exhibition.
His heart skipped a beat and he hurriedly found Song Ji.
"Mr. Song, the internet is saying that you fired Wu Xuelin?"
