"Sorry, madam, please take a rest in the waiting area or come back at another time.

Because there are too many people, we have taken measures to limit the flow of people for your safety. We will send you a small gift for the inconvenience caused to you."

"call"

In the lounge, Yamano Akiko, who had just been replaced, took a deep breath.

In the past two hours, she has repeated this sentence countless times. I am afraid that she will have to repeat this sentence when she sleeps tonight.

She was not an employee of this Parknshop supermarket, but a salesperson of Seibu Department Store. She came here today simply because there were not enough manpower to help.

But she was very happy to help, and she wished she could continue to help like this forever.

Because not only did the original company Seibu Department Store pay him a salary, but the current Parknshop Supermarket will also pay him a salary.

Not only her, it is said that more than half of the sales staff of Seibu Department Store were sent to various stores to support.

Although I made all the preparations, I still underestimated the islanders' craziness about picking up bargains.

Originally, Luo Nianzhong and Aoki Daisuke had seconded a lot of staff, but there was still a staff shortage problem. You had to give people a break, right?

A day or two is fine, but a month is more than anyone can bear.

So Luo Nianzhong made a phone call to Seibu Department Store. This face was still given to Seibu Department Store, which had just taken advantage. Anyway, their store didn't have many customers, so it was better to be a favor that went along with the flow.

Madness, catastrophic madness.

Many TV stations reported the event live in real time, using similar sentences.

It’s not just the first-line stores that are crazy. As suppliers to these three companies, each company is facing tremendous pressure.

The pressure is not on the inventory, but on the shipping and installation crews.

In the island country, the purchase of home appliances is bundled with installation. Luo Nianzhong knew that there were absolutely not enough installers in the Honor Store, so he simply skipped this step.

Orders from the Honor Store are sent directly to the product manufacturer, who ships the product directly from the warehouse and is responsible for transportation and installation.

The assembly line workers in their factory had no problem doing this, and Luo Nianzhong generously returned the installation fee paid by the customer to the manufacturer.

The manufacturer has made a profit, and Luo Nianzhong has saved himself trouble.

It's just that these manufacturers never expected that the event would be so popular. Luo Nianzhong completely donated his own money to provide benefits to families in the island country.

Once the month-long event is over, it is conceivable that the local market will usher in a low sales season in the coming year.

Fortunately, the main revenue of these major manufacturers is now overseas. Otherwise, I really don’t know whether they would consider losing money and breaking the contract.

Panasonic's largest factory in Tokyo, Matsushita Konosuke personally came to take charge.

Seeing the workers who were constantly coming in and out carrying home appliances and loading them into trucks, and the trucks driving out of the factory gate, Matsushita Konosuke's admiration for Luo Nianzhong was beyond words.

He knew about the conflict between Luo Nianzhong and the Mitsui Consortium, but if it were him who was spending such a large amount of money, he couldn't do it if he asked himself.

But I have to admit that this is definitely a killer move. After getting the Roppongi Hills project, no matter how much you lose, you can make it back, let alone not that much?

In order to promote the products that were accumulated one or two years ago, major manufacturers once again gave away profits.

Not much, only 2 points, but just these two points are likely to reduce Luo Nianzhong's loss by several points.

Another point is that Luo Nianzhong has a ten-year maintenance package.

As long as you pay 10% of the original price of the product, you can get a ten-year warranty.

The most attractive part of this promise is that if the product purchased within ten years suffers serious natural damage, the compensation will not be an identical new machine, but a new product at that time.

Think about it, if the TV I bought breaks down in the tenth year of use, I can claim a new TV set at that time for free, which is equivalent to buying a new TV for free.

But the people don't know what's going on here. How can Konosuke Matsushita, the chairman of Matsushita, not know.

There is a 70% chance that these home appliances will still be in normal use in 20 years, let alone 10 years. This is the craftsmanship they have been emphasizing.

The more people buy this package, the less Luo Nianzhong will lose. Even Matsushita Konosuke doubts whether Luo Nianzhong will make a profit.

But I have to admire that this is a genius idea and worth learning from.

"President, our vehicles are not enough if we continue like this."

The director of the factory interrupted Konosuke Matsushita's thinking and reported the problems he discovered.

Matsushita Konosuke frowned, and then decisively ordered, "Contact your brother units, and encourage employees to use their own private cars, and fill up their gas tanks when the time comes."

Nowadays, products such as TVs and air conditioners can be installed in private cars. They can be installed in households that do not have any large items to buy. There is no problem at all for one person and one family.

Looking at the factory director who came down to give the order, Matsushita Konosuke said, "This is interesting" and turned around to leave.

……

"I've seen people engaging in price wars, but this is the first time I've seen people losing money and making noise."

Price war? This is how island countries deal with the semiconductor industry of beautiful countries.

But that's because labor costs and production costs have dropped significantly, and it's just small profits but quick turnover.

A price war of the magnitude of Luo Nianzhong's was considered normal in the 21st century, but it has never happened now.

"His ten-year maintenance package is interesting. It's equivalent to electronic product insurance. Can we follow suit in the future?"

"It's impossible. It might be okay in the first two years, but consumers will definitely react in the future.

Moreover, the uncertainty of this thing is too great. No one can guarantee what the electronic home appliance consumer market will be like in the future. This thing still needs market verification.”

At the Tokyo headquarters of the Fuji Foundation, Daisuke Aoki, Junichiro Yasuda, Hitachi and other major presidents gathered here to talk about Luo Nianzhong’s crazy activities.

“Don’t think about other things now, let’s ensure the results for this month first.

The domestic market will experience a decline in the next year or even longer, so this battle is crucial."

"Yeah" Hitachi nodded in agreement.

"I have already given instructions to increase advertising, and the next step will be a publicity war by major manufacturers.

In the final analysis, this has turned into a war between various home appliance brands. Do we think we are spending money to help promote it? "

"Just be content and you can still participate. Some people's hair may be turning gray now. I really want to see what Toshiro Mitsui Zamon is feeling at this moment."

"Ha ha ha ha". Everyone laughed.

"Business-wise, it's obvious that offense and defense have been swapped. Mitsui has shot itself in the foot. It's impossible for them to subsidize it like Luo Nianzhong did.

Now the only thing they can do is write official articles, but with us, Sumitomo and the Hatoyama family taking the lead, the Mitsui Foundation can hardly make any waves."

Aoki Daisuke's words made Yasuda a little excited. "I really want to see those companies in the Mitsui Consortium pay fines. This is really the first time in history. It's really fun."

If you want to say who has the least dealing with the Mitsui family, it is the Yasuda family.

Back when the Yasuda family was prosperous, they were often looked down upon and suppressed by the other party. Now that they have the opportunity to watch the other party's jokes, Junichiro Yasuda is happier than how much money the Fuji Foundation has made this time.
