Chapter 778 Something Fishy about the Data!
Zhang Xiancheng had just finished speaking.
Under the stage.
Immediately, someone raised his hand.
“Mr. Zhang, there are so few pills in the first batch, only 37,500 pieces. Only 37,500 people can buy it at most. Some people can buy two, five, and ten at a time. What if we can’t get them? We are all selected by your company to test medicine. Can you sell some to us in advance?”
The person who raised his hand paused and said, “We don’t ask for much. How about one for each person? Even if all of us buy it, it’ll only be one hundred pieces.”
“That’s right. We’ve come all the way here. Shouldn’t we get an advantage?”
“I don’t want the 3,000 yuan in the red packet anymore. Can I exchange it for a Trillium Root-Securing Pill?”
“I also want to exchange it.”
Everyone echoed him.
From the expressions of every single one of them, it could be seen that they truly wanted to buy Trillium Root-Securing Pills.
Looking at those people, the netizens in the livestream channel were more looking forward to the Trillium Root-Securing Pill. Some of them even began to object.
“You are here to test the medicine. Why do you have the right to buy it first?”
“That’s right. They’ve given you so many benefits. Why are you still fighting with us?”
“There are few pills. You’ve already eaten it. Why are you still fighting over it? What’s there to fight for?”
In the conference hall.
On the stage.
“I’m sorry.”
In the face of the requests of the 100 people below the stage, Zhang Xiancheng shook his head and said, “Rules are rules. Everyone needs to order. But, the distinguished guests who are present for this test, we will also give every one of you one piece.”
As soon as those words came out.
Immediately, there was a warm round of applause.
The 100 people were all excited.
Unexpectedly, in addition to the red envelope, there was such a benefit. Not to mention the price of Trillium Root-Securing Pill, because it had not been announced yet, the precious thing was that it could not be bought now even if one wanted to. The first batch was less than 40 thousand pieces. There were more than a billion people in Huaxia, and more than ten million people were paying attention to the Trillium Root-Securing Pill.
It was easy to imagine how difficult it would be to get a Trillium Root-Securing Pill.
In the livestream channel.
“What the f*ck? How could there be such benefits on the scene?”
“Dammit. Why wasn’t I picked to go to the conference?”
“It’s such a heart-warming event.”
Next to the meeting hall.
“Something’s wrong, isn’t it?”
Seeing the livestream, Fang Qiu turned his head to look at Yang Ningyuan and said, “37.5 thousand pieces, and two bottles in a box, so that’ll be 75 thousand bottles in total, which is a ton of Desert Cistanche. I remember that I gave you a total of three tons of Desert Cistanche in the first batch.”
“Hunger marketing!”
Yang Ningyuan laughed.
Fang Qiu was stunned.
Then, he shook his head and said with emotion, “A profiteer!
“By the way.”
Fang Qiu seemed to have thought of something all of a sudden. He opened his mouth and said, “It seems that the 75 thousand bottles haven’t been fully produced yet.”
“Isn’t this a preorder?”
Yang Ningyuan answered with a smile, and then said, “However, they’ll soon be produced in the next two days.”
Fang Qiu was speechless hearing that.
However, after thinking about it carefully, he did learn a lot today. From Yang Ningyuan, he learnt a real marketing practice.
While he sighed in his heart, Fang Qiu secretly examined his own meridians with Insight and found that the trace had not been broken through, so he should wait a little longer.
On the other side.
The livestream ended.
Everyone frantically rushed to the official website of Hua Yuan Pharmaceutical Corporation.
All the information on the official website had disappeared. Instead, it was replaced by a picture of a countdown.
The countdown to the preorder of Trillium Root-Securing Pill!
At that time, there were two hours left.
Watching the countdown retreat one second at a time, they couldn’t click on anything on the official website, so everyone could only wait quietly.
At University of Jiangjing Chinese Medicine.
In Dormitory 501.
“The oldest, am I seeing things? Is this the pill mainly developed with the Desert Cistanche we cultivated together with Mr. Zhao?” Zhou Xiaotian asked in disbelief.
“It should be… right?”
Zhu Benzheng didn’t believe it either.
“That’s awesome.”
Sun Hao widened his eyes and said with a look of pleasant surprise, “I finally know why the youngest sold the Desert Cistanche cultivated by us at such a high price. The efficacy is just amazing!”
“Hey.”
Zhou Xiaotian suddenly thought of something and asked, “Will we have nosebleeds if we eat a piece of Desert Cistanche every three days?”
“I suppose so.”
Sun Hao nodded seriously.
“But that little rabbit doesn’t seem to have any nosebleed. It eats it every day, and it eats quite a lot every day.”
Zhou Xiaotian pursed his lips and said, “I think we can also eat it. Although it’s not delicious, the effect is absolutely good.”
“Don’t have this bad idea.”
Zhu Benzheng rolled his eyes at the two of them and said, “If you eat it and get caught by the youngest, and then the youngest takes back your shares, what should you do?”
The two of them heard him.
All of a sudden, they s.h.i.+vered all over.
“I won’t eat it,” said Zhou Xiaotian immediately.
“I won’t eat it!”
Sun Hao clenched his fists.
Compared with the money represented by the shares, some Desert Cistanche was nothing at all. Moreover, they were doctors of Chinese Medicine themselves, so they didn’t need to eat Desert Cistanche to strengthen their bodies at all. Even if they were sick, there was still Fang Qiu.
“With Fang Qiu here, what disease can’t be cured?”
Beijiang.
After the end of the trial meeting.
“Will you go back to Jianghang with me?” Yang Ningyuan asked.
“For what?”
Fang Qiu was stunned.
“Although the headquarters of Hua Yuan Pharmaceutical is still in the capital, the background data is all in our Jianghang. There are still two hours left. So we can go back in time. Come with me to have a look at how the preorder goes on the official website. What do you think?”
“Okay.”
Fang Qiu immediately nodded in agreement.
This was a great opportunity for him to learn, and ordinary people could not see that kind of background data. If Yang Ningyuan invited him to see it, it meant that Yang Ningyuan trusted him.
Then.
The two of them directly boarded Yang Ningyuan’s private plane.
After all, it was normal for such a rich man to have a private plane.
“How much will you charge?”
On the plane, Fang Qiu chatted with Yang Ningyuan over tea.
“A thousand yuan for one box,” Yang Ningyuan answered.
“You’re unscrupulous.”
Fang Qiu shook his head and sighed.
“Isn’t this the price you told me at the beginning?” Yang Ningyuan said with a smile.
“You can’t blame it on me, can you?”
Fang Qiu gave a wry smile and said helplessly, “I meant to charge more from you, so I exaggerated a little bit. But now you set such a high price, will people shrink back and not buy it after seeing the price?”
“Yes!”
Yang Ningyuan nodded with certainty and said, “After all, this is just a health care product, and the price is indeed a little high. There should not be too many people who dare to try it first, so there is such a part like the trial meeting. Of course, I still have other ways.”
“Then I’ll wait and see,” said Fang Qiu with a smile.
Soon.
The two returned to Jianghang.
At that time, it was just early in the morning.
On the official website of Hua Yuan Pharmaceutical Corporation, the last second of the countdown had pa.s.sed.
Immediately, it was replaced by a preorder page of Trillium Root-Securing Pill.
He took a closer look.
On the preorder page, the price was actually one thousand per unit!
“One unit, just two bottles?”
“Five hundred a bottle?”
“What the f*ck. This is simply robbery!”
“It’s so expensive!”
“I wanted to buy one and try it. I didn’t expect it to be so expensive!”
“Is this thing really so good? I don’t want to buy it and find that it doesn’t work. Then it’ll be a big loss!”
At that time, people were all saying things like that.
After seeing the price, everyone hesitated.
But even so…
The number of “available preorder unit(s)” on the purchase page was rapidly changing.
The number was rapidly reduced from 37,500 in the beginning. In the blink of an eye, it fell to 32,000, and it continued to drop at an extremely fast speed.
Seeing that, everyone instantly became anxious.
However, many people were still hesitating.
After all, the price was indeed high.
Nevertheless…
Within short one minute and a half of hesitation.
The number of remaining units directly fell under 20,000, dropping to 18,000.
In less than 90 seconds.
20,000 units were preordered?
At first, everyone was not in a hurry, but when they saw that situation, they couldn’t help but become anxious with red eyes.
“F*ck, everyone else is buying it. I’ll buy too!”
“If you don’t buy it now, there’ll be none.”
“We don’t know when the next batch will be available!”
“Just buy it, just buy it!”
“Even if I don’t eat it myself, I can sell it to others. I’m sure I can make money out of this!”
At that time, people were all saying things like that.
Everyone was anxiously clicking to buy.
In the end.
Less than three minutes later.
A total of 37,500 sets of Trillium Root-Securing Pills had been sold out.
Jianghang.
In the data room of the head office of Zhiyuan Group.
Seeing the result, Fang Qiu was also stunned. He asked Yang Ningyuan, who was next to him, “Isn’t there something fishy in it?”
“There’s nothing fishy about it. They’ve really bought all of them, 37,500 sets. There’s not a single one left,” Yang Ningyuan said with a smile.
“That’s not what I’m talking about.”
Fang Qiu shook his head and said, “I mean the number that has been changing since the start of the preorder!”
“Haha.”
Yang Ningyuan laughed loudly, gave Fang Qiu a thumbs-up, and said, “Your eyes are indeed sharp. The data is indeed not real. From the beginning, it was to create a tense atmosphere for customers. The number changed to 10,000, and everyone was anxious. At the same time, at least 50,000 or even 100,000 buyers were making a reservation. What we need to do is to choose a part of those buyers and turn the virtual data into real one.
“Of course, preordering depends on luck too. You won’t necessarily be able to buy it even if you place an order before someone else. It’s pretty random, because only in this way can we create a kind of urgent situation, which makes most of the buyers feel that they can’t buy it at all, causing our products to be particularly popular, and thus attracting more attention.
“It’s just like some domestic entertainment stars selling concert tickets. That’s why when you go to the concert, you always see some empty seats on the floor and the first-level ticket holders are allowed to fill them up.”
Hearing that, Fang Qiu couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh. “You’re indeed an old fox in the business world. You’re a big profiteer. With the way you’re doing things, you would have other tricks up your sleeve, wouldn’t you?”
Fang Qiu finally saw it.
The big action that Yang Ningyuan had said at the beginning was not as simple as a trial by a hundred people. He had made a series of preparations, one after another, to lure the customers into his trap.
“Of course.”
Yang Ningyuan didn’t deny it and directly nodded his head to admit it!
