Chapter 32 Passing by, don’t miss the opportunity
After setting up the venue, Fang Bai remembered that there was no speaker.
Speakers are the soul of street stalls. As long as the sound is high-pitched and exciting, and the content is unique, it can always attract the attention of passers-by.
Thinking of this, Fang Bai went to look for it on his bicycle and finally bought it in a grocery store.
Not long after returning to the rental house, I saw my father coming back riding a tricycle. The outside of the car was reinforced with wooden boards and he also bought some plastic straps.
After the car arrived, Fang Bai ordered the goods to be moved.
So far, a total of 30 TVs have been repaired, and Fang Bai plans to move them all. The large number is what attracts attention.
First put cardboard on the bottom of the car, and then put the TV. Place the large-size TV on the bottom of the car first, then lay a layer and then put the small-size TV on top.
A tricycle can only hold a few TVs. Fortunately, the distance is not far, so it’s okay to make a few more trips. There’s no need to rent a car.
Fang Bai led the way, while his father rode the bicycle. Two students who were part-time handymen pushed the cart behind, followed by two girls.
When they arrived at the venue, they moved the goods and got off the car. Fang Bai asked everyone to lay a pure blue waterproof tarpaulin on the venue and then put the TV on it.
Fang Bai and the girl stayed behind to look at the goods, arrange the goods, and set up the antenna, while the others went back to move the TV.
A 32-inch Panasonic color TV was specially placed at the back of the booth. After powering on, the antenna was adjusted, and a clear picture appeared within a short time.
Passers-by came and went, very curious about what Fang Bai and the others were doing. When they saw a large color TV, it instantly caused a sensation.
The 29-inch imported Panasonic Picture King has a market price of 12,000 yuan. It is already the largest color TV in the domestic market and very few people have seen it.
As for the 32-inch color TV, it is estimated that not many people in China have seen it, and it would normally take ten years for it to be promoted in the country.
Fang Bai only found this 32-inch color TV. The reason seemed to be that it was accidentally burned by lightning. The circuit board was quite damaged, but fortunately it could be repaired.
He estimated that this 32-inch color TV had just been launched abroad not long ago, otherwise it would not have been possible to get it from foreign electronic waste.
After a while, dozens of spectators gathered around the booth, and many of them were talking in low voices.
"Wow, this is my first time seeing such a big color TV."
"The largest color TV I have ever seen is 21 inches. This is the first time I have seen one as big as this." When Chinese people talk about TV size, they don't say inches, but inches.
This inch is, of course, not 3.33 centimeters, which is the traditional domestic unit of length, but 2.54 centimeters per inch.
"What are you doing? Why are there so many TVs? Are you planning to sell TVs?"
"They should be selling TVs or setting up a stall."
Most people just watch quietly. After all, large color TVs are too expensive and they dare not touch them. What if they break it and have to pay for it?
Fang Bai then turned on the TV and adjusted the TV station.
Later generations sold TVs by electrifying all the TVs on display and playing the same program, which had a gathering effect and made them more attractive.
A 32-inch color TV is placed in the middle, and a 21-inch color TV is placed on each side, both connected to an antenna.
After finishing five TVs, his father sent a few more TVs and also brought price tags.
Fang Bai asked the two girls to place the price sign in front of the TV. Only after the audience saw the price did they know that Fang Bai and the others were really selling the TV.
However, viewers couldn’t believe how cheap these TVs were.
"Oh my God, a 21-inch color TV only costs 1,100 yuan! So cheap?"
"Yes, it's cheap, but it looks a bit old. Why?"
"A 17-inch black and white TV only costs 150 yuan, which is half the price of a new 14-inch TV."
"A 29-inch color TV costs 2,500 yuan, a 14-inch color TV costs 368 yuan, and a 14-inch black and white TV costs 78 yuan. It's so cheap."
When the audience saw the price tag, they realized that this was selling TVs, and the price was extremely cheap.
When Fang Bai saw the expressions of the crowd, he was quite surprised.
Next, he turned on the electronic loudspeaker, and a seductive sound covered dozens of meters in radius, attracting more passers-by to watch.
“Come and take a look;
If you pass by, don’t miss the opportunity;
All imported high-end brand TVs, quality guaranteed, 20% off on everything!
The original price is 1680, but now it is not sold for 998 or 680.
The current price is only 368!
You heard it right, just 368!
Imported color TVs that are not available in China can be bought here!
It will last three to five years and can be passed on to the next generation!
Although it is not a family heirloom, it is inseparable from every household.
As long as you own a color TV, you will be the brightest boss in the village. "
The speaker sound is Fang Bai's own. He recorded it several times to imitate the intonation of the TV sales host.
In order to record this line well, Fang Bai recorded it over and over again countless times, but it still lacked the flavor of the later stall owner Mai Ba.
If in later generations such advertisements were played, Fang Bai would not want to hear them, and it would be too noisy.
But in this day and age, it’s so shocking.
The two girls couldn't help laughing before they finished listening. Passers-by were also attracted by this novel line and listened to it over and over again.
Wencheng people are very sensitive to new things, so they walked into the stalls to have a look.
"Girl, TV is only 20% off, is it so cheap?" an audience member asked at the scene.
As a salesperson, Li Meng responded enthusiastically: "Yes, brother, all TVs on site are only 20% off!
Of course, these are test machines stranded in TV factories in developed countries. Some TVs are several years old and have traces of use.
But the quality is no problem and can be verified on site. "
The two sales girls are both juniors and have decent looks.
The one with a slightly chubby face is named Li Meng, and the other girl is named Chen Xiaofang.
Fang Bai mainly valued that they were both articulate and clever.
He didn't choose a pretty one. Girls who are too pretty in this era can easily cause trouble. Fang Bai doesn't want to cause trouble when doing business.
"Girl, what is a test machine?" an audience member asked curiously.
"That's right, Auntie, the TV factory conducts various performance tests in order to test the lifespan and various functions of the TV. All parts are original. Even though the version is a bit old, it is already very advanced for the country." Li Meng replied seriously that these TVs are refurbished and can be used, but the lines given by Mr. Fang still deceived the people.
Fang Bai had explained to them that it was an original product and was just refurbished. Otherwise, how could the price be so low? The sales terms were far from deceptive.
What's more, they didn't pass it off as quality or lie to customers that these TVs were new.
The test machine is a compromise. If it were said to be pieced together from foreign electronic waste, no customers would buy it.
But to say that it is a new machine, Fang Bai is not that thick-skinned and does not want to deceive the public.
The refurbished machine is sold at 20% off the original price, which is not excessive.
"That's it. Is there any quality assurance?"
Li Meng replied according to the lines: "It can be tested and played on site, and there will be no problem if it is used for a few years.
If you find any quality problems after buying it, you can take it back and return it, and we will give you a full refund.
Dear brothers and sisters, if you are interested in buying, you can come and take a look. "
Fang Bai gave them examples of questions that customers might ask and listed the answers.
If not, then it's up to them to express themselves freely.
When she shouted, many spectators at the scene moved closer to the TV to watch.
There were more and more spectators at the scene, and there were already more than a hundred people. Fang Bai did not expect that there would be so many people, so he had to ask two strong handymen to maintain the scene. When his father returned, he sent two other maintenance workers to help him push the cart and move it quickly. The goods are coming.
"Girl, can the price be cheaper? This 14-inch color TV is still too expensive at 368 yuan." In the crowd, a forty-year-old uncle asked Li Meng.
Li Meng's tone was pitiful: "Uncle, we are already dealing with a loss, and we cannot afford to fall any further.
The quantity of this batch is small, and it will be gone once it is sold out. "
The uncle took out the money from his big bag and showed it to Li Meng. He said helplessly: "Girl, I really want to buy this 14-inch color TV, but I only have 360 yuan. I have to save some money for traveling back."
"Let's do this. Uncle, please wait a moment. I'll apply to our leader."
After finishing speaking, Li Meng walked towards Fang Bai and roughly explained the situation.
This is also a sales strategy. Fang Bai taught them: when you encounter someone with a strong desire to buy, don't reject the customer directly.
In fact, she can decide by herself when applying to the leader.
Fang Bai said: "Well, sell it to him for 350. Most people don't bring that much money when they go out. We have to pay attention to this. When you sell, remind customers that we will be selling here every other day so that customers can prepare in advance. money.
But we should also pay attention to the fact that there are many people nowadays, so stop talking nonsense. If you talk too much, you will definitely be too busy. "
After receiving Fang Bai's reply, Li Meng walked towards the uncle and said with a smile: "Uncle, our leader said that considering your situation, the price can be reduced to 350 yuan.
To be honest, 368 yuan is already a loss, and you will make a profit if you buy it. "
"Girl is really good at talking, then I'll pay for that 14-inch color TV." The uncle saw that there were too many people at the scene, so he might hesitate a little and the product would be snatched away by others.
Li Meng wrote him a bill of sale, took the cash and gave it to Fang Bai, and told the uncle that the TV could be moved away.
"Girl, is there no packaging?"
"Uncle, let me tell you, this is a test machine, it has been disassembled and assembled, so there is no manual or packaging.
If there is a quality problem, we will be here the next day for a while. You can return it and we will refund all the money to you. "
After hearing Li Meng's assurance, the uncle no longer worried about whether to pack it or not, and just be careful when moving it back.
Other viewers saw someone paying to move the TV, and many people asked about the price, which also aroused the desire to buy.
