Mike quickly stepped forward and said to Factory Manager Cao, "You're very sincere! I've decided to place an order with you!"
Hikawa-kun also said, "Me too!"
Several other buyers handed over their contracts, exclaiming, "Me too! Me too!"
Factory Director Cao laughed heartily.
I won this round again, I'm going to piss you guys off!
Why can't I earn $1?
Didn't you see the enthusiasm of the buyers flocking in?
You bunch of idiots! One is $1, so 10 million is $10 million!
This is all money!
You guys are still too green to be factory managers!
Factory Manager Cao quickly greeted the buyer: "Mr. Mike, how much do you want to buy? Let me make it clear first, the price is already at the bottom line, there will be no further discounts."
Mike put on an innocent expression: "I didn't ask for a discount. This price per unit is very reasonable."
"How much do you need?"
"Give me 1,000 first."
"Okay, ten million!"
"Wait!" Mike interrupted, "Is there a problem with my translation? I said 1000!"
Factory Director Cao blinked and picked at his ear.
What?
1000?
Is the translation correct?
How could that be!
Factory Director Cao asked several times to confirm that the translator had made no mistake; it was indeed 1000, without the "ten thousand" at the end.
Factory Director Cao was struck dumb.
Holy crap!
I bargained so hard, and you're telling me you want 1000?
Are you kidding me?
Factory Director Cao immediately asked, "That's not right. Last time you bought tens of thousands of units. Why are you only buying 1,000 units here when the price is so low?"
After listening to the translator, Mike said, "Because I don't know the quality of your mass production, I can only order 1,000 at first."
Factory Director Cao nearly fainted from anger, asking, "What did Wu Changfeng say? This is your first time doing business, how come you have orders for tens of thousands? Logically speaking, you should have placed a large number of additional orders this time, I think at least a million!"
Mike scoffed, "That was a necessary measure to capture the market. Now that the market is stable, the requirement is to maintain consistent quality."
"My quality is excellent! I guarantee it!" Factory Manager Cao said anxiously. What the hell can 1,000 of these do?!
Mike looked at Director Cao as if he were an idiot.
Factory Manager Cao then asked Mr. Richuan, "I saw that electric toothbrushes are very popular in Japan. You must have a lot of orders, right?"
Hikawa shrugged: "I can't compare to Mike. I'll start with 500 to test the waters."
Factory Director Cao felt his brain was lacking oxygen, and then asked the other buyers, "You too..."
"I only need 300, please ship them to me as soon as possible."
"Give me 500, I'll take them with me."
"200 is enough."
Factory Director Cao became confused, his eyes swirling like mosquito coils as he collapsed unconscious to the ground...
Factory Director Hao and other manufacturers gloated:
"Serves you right! You deserved to lower the price!"
"Thank goodness we didn't follow suit! I did the math, and there were less than 5,000 electric toothbrushes in total. We lost a fortune!"
"It's hilarious! We're still haggling over prices, but the buyers don't need to place large orders this time at all."
"You're not right. We do need the goods, but we need to inspect their quality."
"That's all for now, let's call it a day."
on site.
All that was left was a desperate Factory Director Cao and a group of buyers staring at each other in disbelief.
Factory Director Cao signed the contract with tears in his eyes.
Profit of $5,000...
Lu Xingtao, who had just gone out to observe, returned.
Seeing the grief on Factory Director Cao's face, he asked, "What's wrong?"
"The contract is signed..."
"That's great news!" Lu Xingtao laughed. "Shouldn't you be even happier?"
"I……"
Factory Director Cao found it difficult to say!
"What's wrong?"
Factory Director Cao reluctantly explained what had just happened.
Lu Xingtao almost fell to the ground after hearing this.
He roared, "You piece of trash! How can you do business like this! Not only do you make money off the foreigners, but if the exchange rate fluctuates, you'll lose everything!"
"At this price, there's no way we can raise it in the future!"
"I'm so angry!"
Factory Director Cao said, "I thought the buyer would purchase at least 10 million worth of goods, which would mean a 10 million profit."
Lu Xingtao gritted his teeth in anger: "Does your company make profits based on quantity?"
"That's how I did it at the tractor factory."
"That's why your work is so ineffective! You're barely hanging on!" Lu Xingtao yelled. "What are you thinking?! I shouldn't have swallowed my pride and begged my dad to save you!"
"Haven't you done enough stupid things since you came here from that island nation?"
Factory Director Cao suddenly realized that Lu Xingtao was really angry, and his tone was very serious.
He said sincerely, "Don't worry, as long as we compare the quality with the buyers, we can still get a lot of orders."
"We'll find an excuse to raise the price then. No matter what, even at $100 each, it'll still be cheaper than Wu Changfeng's!"
"I call this prioritizing customer acquisition!"
Factory Director Cao immediately applied what he had just learned, leaving Lu Xingtao completely bewildered.
Lu Xingtao snorted: "Then you figure it out yourself! You have to raise the unit price, no matter what excuse you make!"
Factory Director Cao quickly assured him, "Don't worry, it's absolutely foolproof!"
...
On the other side, Wu Changfeng said to Guo Yuda, "Don't worry, it's absolutely a piece of cake!"
