The news about the Northern Cosmetics City has caused quite a stir, with many people watching in secret and some even making preparations behind the scenes!
Counterfeit brands have been around for a long time, but the stores just haven't been able to open. Currently, most luxury stores in China are fake, which is why many people go to Hong Kong to buy things.
Putting aside the cost, at least buy an authentic copy.
In just a few days, a large number of Dior lipstick sticks have been found in wholesale markets, and they are available at almost every counter.
The best-selling product was from Huasha Cosmetics Factory. Many people do this: they buy 5,000 yuan worth of goods from Jiang Xiaoyan, mix in 10,000 yuan worth of their own goods, and then raise the price to sell them.
The fake market is no longer limited to cosmetics markets; it has begun to appear in other markets, creating a chain reaction, with these products starting to appear in some end markets.
However, most of the market is still supported by Lu Feng alone. From the production end to the end consumer, there is an information gap in this process, and there is also a layer of hoarding.
After considering it for two days, Zhao Yanran decided to stock up on a batch of goods. In just a few days, the price of Dior products in the terminal market had skyrocketed.
This is probably the first time the domestic lipstick market has been hyped up. Those who were trying to hoard goods and wait for prices to rise never dreamed that this situation was caused by Lu Feng's wife's business being swindled and a batch of goods being unable to be shipped out.
Two days later, the latest news from the cosmetics market revealed that Dior lipstick sticks were selling for 150 yuan each at retail, and there was an extreme shortage in the market. Many people were hauling goods to the north overnight. Some were boasting that there was a market gap of tens of millions of yuan, which might cause an earthquake in the cosmetics industry, such as the entry of major international brands into the domestic market.
With news flying everywhere, no one knows which statement is true and which is false.
This pool of water is murky!
When Lu Feng arrived at the factory, he took a walk around. The factory had been quite lively these past few days. Last night, someone even climbed over the wall to try and cut out a drill bit mold.
The factories on this street are all incredibly envious.
"How's it going?" Lu Feng entered the office. The sofa was a bit old, and several New Year pictures hung opposite it. The floor was cement, sprinkled with water, and had just been swept. He asked, "Has demand been stimulated?"
"Mmm!" Wei Yandan nodded repeatedly. She looked at Lu Feng with stars in her eyes. This young man had quietly taken control of everything. She believed that if the factory were in his hands, a large company would emerge in the cosmetics industry within two years.
"Mr. Lu, I just don't understand why they are so enthusiastic about promoting us. Now it's not just cosmetics stores, but the retail sector is also being stimulated, and there are actually people buying."
"Does this world lack fools? It lacks pure fools, but it never lacks fools who think they are smart. Everyone involved thinks they are in control of the situation, but they are just韭菜 (leeks, a metaphor for being exploited). If you understand this, then you understand the domestic stock market."
Lu Feng picked up the thermos on the ground, poured himself a cup, sat down and said, "Let's start shipping the goods tomorrow. Let's finish shipping this million-dollar shipment, help her secure a few more orders, and then I should go back and get busy."
"Okay!" Wei Yandan was excited. She had been quite tired over the past three months, but she had managed to get through it. She could tell that Lu Feng was quite satisfied with her, and she believed that a new position would be waiting for her when she returned to the company.
The following day, all buybacks were suspended. Previously, it was claimed that production capacity was limited, but there were too many buyers, so each customer was subject to a limit. Today, all order restrictions were lifted.
In no time, many people flocked to the store, and some even started fighting in front of the Huasha Cosmetics counter. This wasn't just grabbing goods; it was grabbing money. Whoever grabbed the goods could then raise the price on the spot and sell them.
Everyone here believes that they can sell the goods, or even just the orders, by adding a 20% markup.
The market frenzy of the past two days has been so intense that it has left everyone breathless and unable to think clearly.
In one morning, 70% of the lipstick sticks, which cost less than three yuan to produce, were sold at eight yuan each. By 2 p.m., all one million yuan of inventory had been sold out, with sales reaching 2.876 million yuan, setting a new record for the largest single-day sales volume in the history of the cosmetics company.
Jiang Xiaoyan lost all her money in almost three months, while Lu Feng turned a profit in just a few days.
Jiang Xiaoyan sat there in a daze, staring at the mountain of money.
"President Jiang, the bank's car will be here soon, and there will be someone escorting it, so don't worry." Wei Yandan thought Jiang Xiaoyan was worried that so much money might get into trouble or be robbed.
“I’m not worried about that. I’m thinking that I don’t know anything and am only suited to be a housewife.”
"No, this is your first time starting a business. You've made great progress in these three months. You went from having to do everything yourself, even changing a screw on the assembly line, to now being able to manage. Didn't you interview a lot of people the day before yesterday? You did a really good job!" Wei Yandan praised.
"What's so good about it?" Jiang Xiaoyan lowered her head in disappointment, fiddling with her fingers as she said, "I've been doing this for so long and lost so much money, and he made it all back in just a few days."
“President Jiang, you can’t compare yourself to him!” Wei Yandan squatted down and said with a smile, “I’ve never met someone like President Lu before. He’s a born business genius. Think about it, if you were like him, and both you and your spouse were like him, wouldn’t that be too unfair to ordinary people like us?”
Jiang Xiaoyan thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "That's right!"
"Besides, you're already very successful. For a woman, the most important thing is to get married. When it comes to getting married, you're in the top ten in the whole country. Also, you've done a great job. I've been doing this for so many years, and I'm still not as good as President Lu, am I?"
