Jinling City

Xinjiekou, Pacific Home Appliances Mall flagship store.

Entering early winter, the weather turns from warm to cold.

Outside the modern home appliance mall, colorful banners are flying, bringing a strong Chinese festival atmosphere.

Today is December 26th, Christmas has just passed, and in a few days it will be New Year's Day 1995. This is a good day to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, and the mall has made preparations in advance.

A bright red banner in the mall read;

On December 28th, the Pacific New Year’s Eve Shopping Carnival will be held with discounts on products worth one billion in the city, so stay tuned.

The first snow since the beginning of winter fell two days ago. The amount of snow was not heavy. Now only the shaded areas of the building and the roadside still have some residual snow. The cold wind blows, bringing with it the chilly feeling of winter.

Not far away, two girls walked up, one fat, one thin, one beautiful and one ugly. They turned out to be Si Wanru, who was already a junior, and the fat girl in the same dormitory. They walked over arm in arm.

"Wanru, why not come here in two days? I heard that the home appliance mall is full of big sales. Many students are going to take advantage of this time to buy a Walkman. Can they save a lot of money?" After the fat sister finished speaking, she stuffed it into her mouth.

A roasted chestnut with sugar, chewing it is full of fragrance.

"I don't want to be crowded with so many people. It's too scary."

"Hmph, I will come with you when the time comes. No matter who he is, if he dares to squeeze me, I will push him away. Hey! Unless he is a handsome guy, I can only tolerate my bad temper."

Si Wanru smiled sweetly. She really felt safe with this senior. She was 1.65 meters tall and weighed 165 pounds. Her small arms were as thick as her own legs.

Walking into the shopping mall, the shopping guide wearing a welcome banner smiled in a formal manner; "Welcome to the Pacific Appliances Mall."

"Quick, let's go see what the current price is at the Walkman counter. We can compare it in two days and see how much money we have saved."

"It's not busy, let's go around slowly."

Si Wanru was cautious. This was a shopping mall owned by her boyfriend. She heard that the Midea and Oppo stores there were all self-produced brands. She wanted to see how the sales were going.

In the office supplies area

The American brand Oppo is in the middle, with IBM and Xerox on both sides, surrounded by some brands from Japan, and even Gree brand copiers. Oppo brand products are highlighted by the stars.

With high-end and atmospheric light tones, graceful lines with curves, and LCD central controls, Oppo products look high-end and atmospheric. The price of the same product is 15% higher than that of Japanese brands, and the price of the highest-end product is more than half as much.

.

This is a misplaced competition method.

For American brands IBM and Xerox, Oppo's prices are much lower, their quality is similar, and each has its own advantages.

For Japanese brand copiers, Oppo has good quality and unique technology, and its strength is overwhelming.

Atlantic Business Machines Company shamefully plagiarized the Oppo brand ideas of later generations. The key mastermind behind this was Wang Yaocheng. He thought about it, but he didn't think of a good brand name, so he simply plagiarized the ideas of domestic brands.

All right!

If it is an unfamiliar brand and there is really no sense of immersion, this is a minor problem that can be forgiven.

Anyway, we still have vivo and mi. If it doesn’t work out, we will compensate Chen Mingyong for some investment in the future. Please ask Mr. Chen Mingyong to use his brains to come up with a name to put an end to this cause and effect.

In the office supplies area, units are negotiating for purchase, and the shopping guides are enthusiastically introducing products;

"The American brand Oppo you see now is the world leader in office equipment. Its products have always been famous for its superior performance and high cost performance. The sales price of the same type of copier is generally 20% lower than that of American brands and 15% higher than that of domestic brands.

, is the best cost-effective choice.”

The customer asked;

“This Chinese brand is also good and the price is relatively low.”

shopping guide;

"Benzi's copier products have always been synonymous with low-end in Europe and the United States. They cannot enter mainstream European and American society. They can only find some markets in convenience stores or street copy shops.

The Oppo brand has just won a US$220 million order from the U.S. Department of Defense. It is also the mainstream office equipment for Wall Street, Citibank, Bank of America and multinational companies. This is unimaginable for copier products from this country."

The customer asked;

"The quality of this home appliance is very good, isn't it that bad?"

shopping guide;

"That's because you haven't had access to better, more sophisticated equipment from the United States. The best computer brands are all from the United States. Oppo also has computer products. The best medical equipment brands are all from the United States. Likewise,

The best office equipment brands are also from the United States.

The American brand Oppo is very demanding in selecting partners, and dealers of average strength simply look down on it.

In the entire Jinling City, you can only buy it at our flagship store, including any other home appliance mall, because our home appliance mall is the most high-end in Jinling City and has the most professional after-sales service."

The customer asked;

"I have also learned some information that our country's copier products account for nearly half of the world's market."

The shopping guide took out a newspaper;

"Your news is out of date. By the end of November this year, the American brand Oppo occupied 41% of the European and American markets with its superior quality and highest cost performance. It is still rising rapidly and has been unanimously recognized by mainstream society.

"

Several people in the unit came forward to take a look. It turned out to be the Hong Kong Island newspaper. This was the new newspaper in November. The shopping guide was indeed right. It clearly said;

The American brand OPPO copiers are of high quality and low price, and they are invincible in the office supplies market around the world.

Several people in the unit got together to discuss it and almost made a decision.

Question: "We don't have a big budget. We want to buy three copiers this time. Can you give us a discount on the price?"

shopping guide;

"There will be no discounts, not in this life. American brands are the most arrogant and never bother to do publicity. However, our home appliance store can give away a heater. This is an internal activity we do. Generally, we do not

foreign."

The other people in the unit looked at a leader and saw him nodding silently, so they said cheerfully, "Okay, that's it. Give us three heaters. We should be able to get three heaters, right?"

"no problem."

Si Wanru and Fat Sister stood aside and watched for a few minutes while the shopping guide completed a large business worth tens of thousands of dollars. They couldn't help but look at each other and stuck out their tongues to express surprise.

This was another middle-aged man walking over. He had already circled the sales booth several times, and the shopping guide greeted him enthusiastically.

"Excuse me, do you need an introduction?"

"No, I have visited several stores in the city, and I know the prices and brands of these copiers. Now I just want to buy one with a lower price, but the quality must be good. The appearance doesn't matter. I mainly want to buy one with a lower price.

I still like the Ricoh brand, the price is only 23,000, the quality should be guaranteed, right?"

Shopping guide: "The Ricoh brand is of good quality. If you simply want a lower price, you can consider Midea brand copiers. The price of the same grade is only 16,800 yuan. The quality is very reliable and the manufacturer has a one-year warranty. This is the Midea brand's first commitment.

"

"The price is so low, can the quality be guaranteed?"

The shopping guide smiled; "Let me bring you over to see. We use Midea brand copiers ourselves. We have been using them for more than a year and there are no faults at all."

"Oh!" The customer followed with great interest.

Soon, the shopping guide made another deal for a Midea brand copier.

The fat lady standing next to her became a little impatient. Si Wanru could only follow her and leave. In just over 20 minutes, six copiers were sold, four of which were Oppo or Midea. This situation also happened to other machines.

Home appliance mall.

As for whether what the shopping guide said is true or false, this is debatable.

At the very least, the Midea brand copier has not been out for more than a year, and it has not been more than three months full time. If you are not a veteran in the industry, who would know?

The two female college students walked to the computer area. Today's computers have officially entered the 486 era. High-end 586s have appeared, but they all have a big square head shape and look extremely stupid.

There are more than a dozen brands here, both domestic and foreign, and the styles are basically the same.

Not far away, a group of people were crowded around, and from time to time someone shouted, "Can you open another one for me? I'll pay for it now."

Si Wanru looked at it in surprise, her beautiful eyes flickering in confusion. The fat lady rolled up her sleeves and said, "What are you doing? Wait for me to come in and see clearly. Wanru follow me, don't get lost."

After saying that, the fat lady led Xiaopao and rammed in. A big hole instantly appeared in the crowd, and they rushed inside.

"Wow, it's so beautiful! Is this a computer?"

"Who are you? The collision made my lower back hurt. I thought there was a car accident. Who can drive the car upstairs?"

"Damn it, which grandson pulled me out?"

"Ouch, it hurts! My foot."

There were all kinds of wild shouts and screams, and the fat lady dragged Si Wanru in majestically, protected her in front of her, and yelled, "I call you grandma, I don't know how to be humble to girls."

Wow!

Who dares to mess with such a fierce girl?

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, uncles, I'm sorry! My friend is a bit impatient." Si Wanru smiled and cheered everyone up, just like a spring breeze blowing by, and the dark clouds dissipated in an instant.

The two female students stood together, and Si Wanru's bright eyes and white teeth made her look more charming and charming.
