Reborn in 08, a heretical cultivator starting a business

Chapter 80: 70 users, 1500 million in daily revenue!

Ten years from now, with some savings, buying an iPhone will be simple and easy.

But the satisfaction and product advantages that an iPhone could bring back then couldn't compare to the summer of 2008!

If you want to buy sweet-scented osmanthus with wine, it doesn't seem like you are a teenager.

But in 2008, Lu Chuan and others bought an iPhone by working part-time, and that made them the coolest kids!
Wang Junshan looked at everyone and said, "Everyone should contact their families, explain the situation, and then report it to the school and apply for dormitories. If your family doesn't agree, then go home; we won't force you. And don't argue with your parents about this!"

"Okay," everyone replied, and they all made their own contacts.

Xia Chengjun dialed his father's number: "Dad, I'm not going home for summer vacation. I'll save on train fare and can also earn some extra money."

"You're not going to make any money. Come back here right now. You think you can earn a few hundred yuan a summer job? It's not even worth the trouble." Old Xia firmly objected and started yelling at him.

"Not much, only three thousand a month," Xia Chengjun said quietly.

"How much? Three thousand?" Old Xia was dumbfounded, thinking he had misheard.

"Yes, salary plus performance bonus, about three thousand is about right."

"There are performance bonuses too? You all get performance bonuses for part-time jobs!"

"Yes, I have."

Old Xia was even more confused: "Son, you haven't been scammed and ended up in a pyramid scheme, have you?"

"Don't talk nonsense. The boss is my roommate. He's handsome, kind-hearted, and incredibly talented. Of course he won't treat me badly. The mayor even came to inspect yesterday."

"Even the mayor is coming to inspect! That's great. Chengjun, don't come back during summer vacation, don't come back during the National Day holiday (which is only a few days away), and don't come back during winter vacation either!"

"Dad, am I really his biological son?" Xia Chengjun was completely dumbfounded. His father's attitude changed too quickly!
"I don't know if you're my biological child, but three thousand a month is definitely the price!"

Xia Chengjun was utterly speechless: "..."

"Um... Cheng Jun, could you ask your boss if I can take on a part-time job?!"

"You're doing a part-time job too?" Xia Chengjun was stunned. "Isn't this inappropriate? Where will you stay?"

"Yeah, that's true. Never mind, just do a good job!"

Xia's father seemed to remember something and gave up.

Similar scenes have occurred to many people.

When they heard that he wouldn't be coming home from his part-time job, his parents were worried.

But when I heard that it was my roommate's business, the mayor had come to inspect it, and the monthly salary was three thousand!

Not only was he at ease, he was completely at ease, and he even wanted to come himself.

After all, in 2008, most people only received around 1500.

A monthly salary of 3,000 is equivalent to a monthly salary of 10,000 in 20 years.

Everyone is envious.

As a result, not only were Lu Chuan and others willing to take on part-time jobs, but the students working under them and the students distributing flyers also wanted to take on part-time jobs.

In total, there were sixty or seventy people!
Wang Junshan made a decisive arrangement:
"Since everyone is willing to work part-time, let's get started immediately. U-Tuan International's order volume has increased several times over, and we don't have enough manpower."

"Lu Chuan and ten people stayed at the Binzhou University warehouse to sort and pack the goods. The others took their team members and went directly to the YouTuan central warehouse, which is a half-hour drive away!"

"Yes."

Everyone took action.

Wang Junshan allocated resources for warehousing and logistics.

High-value electronic products such as mobile phones, which cost thousands or even tens of thousands of yuan each, do not take up much space. They are all stored, sorted, packaged and shipped in the Binda warehouse.

Inside the school, security is higher, and it's easier to monitor the situation at any time. Surveillance cameras have also been installed in the warehouses.

With the help of some employees from YouTuan.com, plus Lu Chuan and others, the efficiency of packing and shipping skyrocketed.

Other beauty and baby products, which are bulky and take up a lot of space, are stored in the central warehouse in Xinjiazhuang. The warehouse there is even larger and has more people. With the help of more than fifty part-time workers, including Fu Yan, things are much easier to manage.

Sorting and packing can be done simultaneously from both sides, which greatly improves efficiency.

The entire process of picking up and shipping goods is handled by SF Express, an exclusive partnership!
These are all high-value products, with the cheapest starting at several hundred yuan. These days, other courier services are prone to losing packages, so Wang Junshan doesn't dare to cooperate with them.

If Wang Junshan were to lose his seven or eight thousand yuan iPhone 3G, and all he gets in compensation is five times the shipping cost, less than a hundred yuan, he'd be left with nowhere to cry.

SF Express is much better; although it's a bit more expensive, there are basically no problems.

Furthermore, both parties signed a contract, under which YouTuan.com exclusively entrusts its express delivery orders to SF Express, while SF Express provides YouTuan.com with comprehensive price protection free of charge!

If any item is lost, you will be compensated at the full price!

Based on this cooperation, SF Express secured a large number of orders, and YouTuan.com obtained high-quality and reliable logistics services, leaving both parties very satisfied!
To better serve YouTuan Technology, SF Express's business unit in Shinan District has directly assigned a team of couriers to serve YouTuan's central warehouse.

Other companies' couriers only come to collect packages once a day.

Meanwhile, at the YouTuan central warehouse, they collect goods four times a day, from morning to night!

Similarly, the business unit in Shishan District also assigned a team to handle the matter.

For a major client like YouTuan Technology, we must treat them as major clients.

Throughout the 19th, both warehouses of YouTuan Technology were extremely busy.

The customer service department was also extremely busy.

Fortunately, YouTuan.com does not have telephone customer service; all customer service is via WeChat.

Users can consult via WeChat, which allows for one-to-many communication and doubles efficiency.

If it's telephone customer service, which can only provide one-on-one support, then we really don't have enough manpower.

With this in mind, Wang Junshan once again instructed the human resources department to recruit part-time staff in the Binzhou University WeChat group-buying platform:
[YouTuan Technology is recruiting summer part-time staff:]

[Mainly engaged in logistics sorting and packaging, customer service, etc. Hourly wage starts at 6 yuan, the more you work, the more you earn, monthly salary + bonus 1500-2000 yuan.]

[Interested parties, please contact Manager Zhou of the Human Resources Department of YouTuan Technology, WeChat ID: ...; Manager Wu, WeChat ID: ...]

For ordinary part-time workers, the take-home pay is 1500-2000, which is already significantly higher than the current average income.

Those veteran employees who follow the market expansion team will earn more for their hard work. Next month, they can earn 1800-2300 by going out to expand the market.

The people in charge, such as Lu Chuan and Fu Yan, work even harder, as they have to coordinate the work of one or even several campuses. Their income can be two to two and a half times the average, ranging from 2300 to 3000!

This is roughly the income of a junior manager in another company, a university director, or a professor.

Wang Junshan has always been very generous to his subordinates.

These part-time students from Binzhou University all know how to type, have quick learning abilities, and can become excellent customer service representatives with simple training.

With the addition of these people, YouTuan Technology's logistics and customer service staff have become more plentiful.

Even at 6 PM, with WeChat users exceeding 700,000 and YouTuan.com's daily revenue reaching 14 million yuan, and order volume increasing tenfold compared to before, they were still handling everything with ease.

And most of the packages have already been sent out.

The rest will be picked up by another SF Express truck at 10 p.m.

The iPhone sold 1800 units.

Of the 2200 units that Wang Junshan had prepared, very few remain.

No worries, another 1500 units will arrive tomorrow morning!
70 users, daily revenue of over 1400 million, and gross profit of over 600 million!
Such a brilliant achievement has excited the entire YouTuan Technology team.

"President, shall we open some champagne to celebrate?" the marketing manager asked with a smile.

Wang Junshan smiled faintly: "This is just the beginning! Tomorrow will only be better!"

"Tomorrow, WeChat users will surpass one million, and daily revenue of 2000 million will be a piece of cake!"
