Chapter 50: Out of stock

Early morning of the third day.

The "Wang Triangle" area of ​​Nanwang Reservoir is isolated into a villa area. One of the villas here is Ren Hong's current residence. "Wang Triangle" has more than 30 luxurious villas built on the edge of the shore to the west of the reservoir. It is already green and shaded by mountains and water, with a beautiful environment, making it an excellent living area.

Nanwang Reservoir is still being renovated. Since buying this area, Ren Hongyan has to transform the entire large reservoir into an exclusive resort park within XlouS. The facilities are complete and not open to the outside world. I have to say that this is a great benefit for the company's employees. Employees who are on vacation or off work can enjoy life here for free, or with their families for free.

Ren Hong's villa is like silver-white Ganoderma lucidum embedded on the shore, divided into three floors, upper, middle and lower. The boundary area of ​​the building is arc-shaped, and there is another mystery in the bottom floor. It is completely built with transparent tempered glass on the side of the water, making the beautiful scenery under the water all in front of you. Nanwang Reservoir is rich in aquatic products, and the bottom floor of the villa is like a place in an aquarium.

At this moment, Ren Hong, who was naked, was standing next to the window, looking at the direction of the direct store several kilometers away in the distance. He still saw that there were still long queues there. It was the third day, and it was open for more than 70 hours in three days and 24 hours, and there was still a long queue.

However, as the only offline direct store, it is not surprising. Basically, people who come to Wanning City to travel are more or less entrusted by friends to bring a S-1 back. There are even many people who come from other cities, and there are also many people who come from the mainland. After all, this is the only offline direct store in the world.

"Hmm?" Ren Hong stared at the direction of the direct store and frowned. After a while, he brought a telescope. He clearly saw the long queues suddenly gathering. He immediately unbuttoned the equipment on his wrist and said directly to Changbiao: "Sakura! Contact me the marketing manager!"

"I am Ren Hong. What's going on with the direct store? Why did the crowd suddenly start to gather? What should I do if there are stampedes in thousands of people?" Ren Hong said to the long strip in his hand. At this moment, he was still looking at it with a telescope.

"Ah? Is it the chairman? That's right. Chairman, the inventory has been sold out. 1.8 million units were sold in the direct-operated store in the past three days and three nights!" A voice came from the communication.

"How could it be sold so quickly?" Ren Hong said in confusion.

The other party suddenly said awkwardly: "This, the people in front basically bought more than 5 "S-1s" on average. I thought there would be no problem with 1.8 million units, but I didn't expect that there would be a long queue after 72 hours. We didn't expect that it would be so popular. Now consumers who have not purchased it are gathering in direct stores to protest..."

"You must comfort everyone, never have stampede incidents. Remember, no accidents!" Ren Hong interrupted him and emphasized one after another. He could imagine that the dissatisfaction of consumers at this moment. When it was his turn to queue for a long time or even longer, it would suddenly tell you that there was no goods. This would make people feel extremely unbalanced, especially for some consumers who are more likely to be excited. There are so many people gathering, and it will be a big trouble if there is a stampede incident!

"Mr. Wang! Is there any stock?" Ren Hong immediately contacted Wang Lei, director of the production department.

"There are 60,000 units that just passed the quality inspection yesterday!" Wang Lei responded.

"Take it to the direct store immediately!" Ren Hong said immediately.

"Uh! These goods have been booked." Wang Lei hesitated.

"Compend on liquidated damages! Priority supply of direct-operated stores is given, and it may take several days to queue according to this situation." Ren Hong said.

"Okay, I'll send someone to send it over right away!" Wang Lei responded.

At this moment, the marketing manager came to the scene to comfort him, but now many people are a little excited. Some people have been queuing up for 24 hours. They will never be willing to buy a "S-1". The more they think about it, the more unbalanced they become. Why do the people in front of them buy it in packages?

"I even lined up a tent here for 36 hours. When it was my turn, you said it was gone? Unforgivable! What I got from 36 hours was boring waiting?"

"The people in front of me packed up several units, and now you tell me that there is no stock? Are all the people in your marketing department idiots? How do you do business?"

"This is your company headquarters, it's impossible that there will be no goods!"

"I don't care! I want "S-1"! Just "S-1"!"

The marketing manager looked at the crowd of consumers sweating profusely, and the crowd roared in anger.

"Everyone is calm! Don't be anxious! I am the marketing manager, I..."

"You are the idiot supervisor of the marketing department. Are there or no goods? Just say it's refreshing!"

When the marketing manager heard the strong smell of threat, he felt sweaty and laughed dryly: "Now there is stock! It's stock! Please listen to me! Listen to me first, don't be impatient! Don't be impatient!"

After hearing that the goods were available, the consumers on the scene finally gradually became quiet.

"I knew that it would be a chance to force them like this!" A young man in the crowd said with a low smile.

The marketing manager did not hear it, but saw him shouting at the loudspeaker with no effort: "The production department is ready to deliver the goods, and has paid a considerable amount of compensation for this and cancelled a foreign order. Now it is preparing to deliver it here. Don't worry, everyone will definitely guarantee that everyone can get one 'S-1', but each person is only limited to one. I'm sorry! Please line up now and don't have a stampede!"

"Will it be fine if one person was a man in the past? Why was it so stupid?" someone said carelessly.

The marketing manager immediately felt relieved when he saw the thousands of people present lined up in an orderly manner. If a stampede occurred, something big would really happen, and he could not afford the responsibility. At this moment, he finally felt the feeling of pain and happiness.

Ren Hong in the villa felt relaxed after seeing the crowd gradually dispersing and starting line up again.

Suddenly, a pair of fair and delicate hands surrounded his lower abdomen, and his bare back was covered with a warm body.

"What's going on?" Gao Yue, who was holding Ren Hong from behind, said vaguely. Gao Yue, who had just gotten up, had a hint of hazyness, and his faint clothes and blurred look, had a different temptation.

"The direct-operated stores are sold out, and consumers are protesting. It seems that they should be done now." Ren Hong said as he looked out of the window.

"I don't understand why we no longer set up official direct stores around the world. Offline channels are also very important and can also bring billions of dollars in global revenue to the company! So many people are cheap and they should have been the profits we make." Gao Yue said.

"There are good and bad! It's nothing to earn billions less." If the outside world knows this, you won't have the eyes to twitch. However, Ren Hong does have the capital to say this, "E-commerce is the future trend. In today's era, the Internet makes promotion more efficient and convenient. In addition, in today's sharing era, the viral and efficient spread between people, and the help of instant online translation. As long as your product is excellent enough, you won't have to worry about no one buying it. Establishing offline channels will not be worth the loss. Although there may be some malicious attacks from the Internet, as long as the general trend is formed, these will be self-defeating with time. It is obviously unwise to eat alone. It is understandable that we eat meat to give people some soup. There are many ways to make money, and making money together is the king."

"But Apple doesn't think so. We can just snatch the meat from their bowls!" Gao Yue added, with a hint of worry.

"Indeed!" Ren Hong nodded slightly, staring at the illusory lineup in the distance, and said quietly: "We have touched the core interests of some people after all, and it is also irreconcilable. If I don't go to hell, whoever loves to enter." As he said that, he turned around and hugged the other party's slender willow waist. "I have a premonition, and my intuition tells me that behind XlouS's surface, the uneasy days will soon be approaching."
