Chapter 514: Sold out in five minutes!

Translator: 549690339

The four of them had already decided to buy Chen Mo’s new phone. The Switch wasn’t expensive. It only cost 2000 Yuan, so the four of them only needed to split 500 yuan each.

Moreover, the console was also equipped with some games, especially super Mali Odyssey. Everyone had already seen the demo in the class and felt that it was very fun.

For these college students, the VR gaming pod was out of their reach. They couldn’t afford it, and even if they could afford a dormitory, they couldn’t put it in.

As for the computers, the students ‘computers were generally of lower specifications. It was still difficult to run some large-scale PC games. After all, the students had no money, so many students bought relatively low-end laptops.

As for mobile phones, the main reason was that the screen was small and the operation was inconvenient. It couldn’t be compared to cool devices like the Switch. On the one hand, buying the switch was a novelty, and on the other hand, it was a good price-performance ratio.

It was only 500 yuan for the four of them, but if they wanted to buy a cell phone with similar specifications, they would have to spend at least 4000 to 5000 Yuan!

“Hurry, hurry, hurry, Time’s Up!”

“No problem, I’m ready. Refresh and grab the order!”

“Hey, F * ck, the school network is connected! This F * cking internet!”

“Hurry up and do it again. Refresh it quickly. Don’t drop the ball at this critical moment!”

Just as they were about to start fighting, the school’s network suddenly disconnected. Several people hurriedly checked the network connection, and it took five minutes to restore it.

He quickly opened the shopping link on the official website and clicked to buy immediately.

“Why isn’t there any response from the interface?”

......

“What’s with this hint? Sold out?”

“Let’s try other shopping websites!”

“It’s the same, there’s no stock in Qi Lu!”

“Damn, really? what’s going on? Is there a bug in the system?”

The few of them were dumbfounded. What was going on?

Sold out? How could it be sold out? it had only been on sale for five minutes!

The few of them did not give up and went through a few more websites, but the results were all the same. They were all sold out!

“Why is this phone so similar to the Lehui phone? Was this hunger marketing? How did it sell out so soon after it was released?”

“Did you prepare too little? Don’t tell me you’ve only prepared a few thousand?”

Many people recalled the fear of snatching Lehui cell phones. Because there were not enough Lehui cell phones, there were often fewer of them when they were released, and they needed to be snatching. In the end, many people said that this was hunger marketing on purpose to keep everyone in suspense.

In the end, Zhou Jiangping had no choice but to come out and clarify that this was not hunger marketing! Why wouldn’t he sell it if he could? The production capacity really couldn’t keep up!

But why did Chen Mo do this?

One of the boys in the dormitory checked and said,””Oh my God, so this handheld device is a collaboration with Lehui! No wonder Zhou Jiangping has led Chen Mo astray, he’s also into hunger marketing!”

“I say, the main culprit is here!”

“No, I’m going to find Chen Mo on Weibo and scold Zhou Jiangping. Why didn’t he teach him something!”

“That’s right, I want to go too! He also wanted to see if Chen Mo had posted anything on Weibo and find out the reason. Could it be a problem with the internet?”

……

It wasn’t just these few people. All the major forums and Tieba on the internet had already exploded. Many people were posting, expressing that they couldn’t buy it at all!

“F * ck, I just accidentally refreshed the page and bought it again!”

“I accidentally overslept. When I woke up, even the game controller was sold out!”

“I bought a handheld device but didn’t manage to buy it. Then, I wanted to buy a controller but it was gone too!”

“How are the other websites? Can’t you buy it from other websites too?”

“Don’t ask, it’s the same. I just came back from there and I can’t buy it either. Hurry up and ask Chen Mo what’s going on.”

Soon, Chen Mo posted on Weibo.

“I have good news and bad news to share with everyone. The good news was that the Switch had 150000 in stock and the standalone controller had 100000 in stock. They were all sold out in five minutes. It was a great success. The bad news is that those who still want to buy it will have to wait until next month ...”

As soon as this Weibo post was posted, hundreds of comments instantly appeared below it.

“F * ck, what’s going on? I prepared 150000 Yuan worth of handheld devices and 100000 Yuan worth of game controllers, but they’re all sold out. Is this really that ridiculous?”

“I thought I was in the minority. In the end, so many people are buying!”

“Yeah, shouldn’t you guys wait and see? wait and see before you buy!”

“I’m so angry. You guys actually dare to snatch it from me!”

“Did anyone buy it? I highly suspect that Chen Zhao is lying. He didn’t even prepare that much stock!”

……

Zhou Jiangping’s office.

Chen Mo handed his phone over and showed him the message on Weibo: “Chief Zhou, you’ve really made me suffer.”

Zhou Jiangping was also annoyed,”Mr. Chen, I didn’t expect it to sell so well!” And there are so many people scolding me on Weibo!”

“Why?” Chen Zhao was confused.”Why?”

Zhou Jiangping smiled bitterly.”Everyone said that I was the one who taught you how to do hunger marketing. That’s why they’re all scolding me.”

Chen Mo laughed,”that’s right, it’s your fault.”

Zhou Jiangping was helpless.”Yes, it’s my fault. I’m already urging the manufacturers to speed up the production.”

Chen Mo’s original plan was to prepare at least 300000 handheld devices and 200000 standalone controllers for the first batch, but Zhou Jiangping said it was too risky and would not agree to it no matter what.

According to le Hui’s experience, for popular cell phones that attracted a lot of attention, a few hundred thousand units in stock was enough. The main thing was that if these things couldn’t be sold, it was equivalent to a pure loss. There was no need to put so many into production for the first batch, and the production capacity wouldn’t be able to keep up.

The latest_epi_sodes are on_the ʟɪʙʀᴇᴀᴅ.ᴄᴏᴍ. website.

The first batch of 150000 handheld consoles and 100000 individual controllers was the maximum that Zhou Jiangping could accept.

Chen Mo actually felt that this number was too little. In his previous life, the Nintendo Switch had three million in stock but was sold out. Even though it was for the International market, Chen Mo felt that it wouldn’t be too much to give a discount and divide it by ten.

Even though Chen Mo wasn’t as influential as Nintendo in parallel world, he still had a lot of die-hard fans in China.

However, Chen Mo also considered the fact that the players in parallel world didn’t have the same habits, and there weren’t any hardcore handheld or mainframe players, so he agreed to Zhou Jiangping’s suggestion. He prepared 150000 for the first batch and planned to sell it after.

In the end, they were all sold out in just five minutes! It was actually selling even faster than some of the popular Lehui cell phones!

After receiving this news, many people who didn’t think much of Switch before fell silent.

Was this phone not a success? This was too F * cking successful!

Even some of the popular models of the Lehui mobile phone were not as popular. As a brand new mobile phone, it was a miracle that the Switch could sell so well!

And many people realized that “super Mali Odyssey” was selling more game cartridges than the mobile phones!

There was only a total of 250000 Yuan in stock for the handheld console and controller. In the end, the physical cassette for the game Odyssey had sold for 370000 Yuan, and that did not include the digital version!

Everyone was dumbfounded. What was going on?
