Although the blogger tried his best to appear nonchalant, his distorted face, constant drooling, and bright red skin all told everyone that he was on the verge of exploding.
As A Bao expected, the next second, the blogger stretched out his right hand and took out a bottle of beverage that, although the label had been torn off, was still clearly a cola. He unscrewed the cap and started chugging it down.
It took less than ten seconds from the first bite to the last bite!
If there were a Guinness World Record for the fastest Coke drinker, this blogger might be in the top three!
"Ouch, is it really that spicy?" Abao muttered to himself, sucking in his own saliva. He was now tempted to try this [Hellish Braised Food], but the price... never mind...
Although I was thinking to myself to forget about it, I didn't slack off with my hands. I pressed the pause button on the video, opened Taobao, entered the four characters "Xu's Braised Food", and saw two rotating announcements on the homepage.
[The price of 9999 yuan is a safety price! The auction officially starts at 8 PM tonight! Those who have already placed orders, please request a refund! Thank you!]
[Grand Opening Special! The first ten customers to pay get their orders for free! The first fifty customers get half price... Free shipping for all purchases made within the first 24 hours!]
A Bao's gaze fell on the words "free meal." With his uninterrupted broadband at home and the typing speed he'd honed over twenty years, getting into the top ten didn't seem too difficult... Besides, the price of 9999 yuan wasn't even the final price; maybe he could afford it...
Anyway, I'll add it to my cart first!
With a tap on the product page, all five of Xu's Braised Food's products appeared before A Bao's eyes.
Why are there only five? That's so few!
Clicking on the "Spicy Flavor" item and selecting "Add to Cart" will display five different dish names, each accompanied by a photo...
This seaweed looks delicious! The beef seems good too! And the duck feet look tempting...
Abao, who suffers from decision paralysis, hesitated for two seconds before adding all the options to her shopping cart.
Whether it's spicy, hot, five-spice, soy sauce, or Sichuan peppercorn, they didn't miss any of them, and their shopping cart suddenly added more than twenty items priced at 9999 yuan.
In the office of Xu's Fast Food Restaurant.
"Jiayi, what are the current purchase data for various flavors of braised food?" Xu An's voice rang out in the office, where only the sounds of keyboard typing and mouse clicking could be heard.
“Excellent! The average number of add-to-cart orders for the Hellish Braised Food was 1,600; the average number of add-to-cart orders for the Spicy Braised Food was 1,250; the average number of add-to-cart orders for the Five-Spice Braised Food was... The total number of add-to-cart orders was 5,321!” Gu Jiayi quickly rattled off a series of numbers.
This number gave Xu An a jolt of energy. Even if only two-thirds of the more than 5,000 people who added items to their cart actually placed an order, that would still be more than 3,500 items, equivalent to three days' worth of sales for Xu's Braised Food Shop at its peak!
Even if one vacuum packaging machine operates 24 hours a day, it cannot meet this demand; at least three more machines will be needed!
Zhang Dezhen would have to stay at the store and work all day to complete the order volume. It was unlikely that Aunt He and the others would work full-time, so they would have to hire some temporary or part-time workers to help with packing. They also needed to sign a cooperation agreement with SF Express, otherwise the postage would be two yuan more expensive...
Xu An's pen moved quickly across the notebook, filling the blank page with lines of text.
"Boss, the prices have all been modified. Should we sync them to the Taobao store immediately? There will be a delay of about ten seconds when uploading the modifier, so I suggest uploading it eleven seconds in advance!" Gu Jiayi reminded him as the time approached eight o'clock.
"Then upload the price at 7:59:49!" Xu An quickly looked up and said, then looked down again to continue writing and drawing in his notebook.
"OK!"
7:59:46, 47, 48...
Gu Jiayi lightly clicked the mouse, and a pop-up window appeared on the modifier, with a progress bar at the bottom.
20%......38%......63%......94%......99%......100%, Upload successful!
Beep beep beep————
Hearing the notification sound indicating successful upload, Xu An quickly picked up his phone from the table, turned on the screen, and swiped down to refresh the product page. The item that was priced at 9999 yuan a second ago instantly became 5-40 yuan.
Almost the instant the Taobao store successfully updated its product prices, a series of "ding-dong" notification sounds, like pearls falling onto a jade plate, rang in the ears of everyone in the office.
Sounds that would normally be considered extremely noisy sound exceptionally pleasant and melodious at this moment.
Xu An and the others stood up from their seats and walked behind Gu Jiayi's chair, their eyes all fixed on the order data displayed in the backend.
Gu Jiayi lightly tapped the right mouse button and selected the refresh option. The backend page flashed, and the order number after the product name changed from zero to two digits!
When the order data was refreshed for the second time, the order data for all flavors almost jumped up simultaneously, and were about to break 100;
When the page was refreshed for the third time, the number of orders for different flavors began to differ.
During the fourth refresh, the Hellish Braised Flavor and Spicy Braised Flavor far surpassed other flavors;
