Chapter 212: The scene was quite lively.
Chapter 212: The scene was quite lively.
He glanced at the audience below the stage, then looked at Director An with a serious expression.
"Director An, don't damage the reputation of our Xinsheng brand electric kettle. Since the host has already made his statement, selling it for fifteen yuan now would be deceiving all our friends. Let's sell it for twelve yuan. I will take full responsibility for all the consequences of today's exhibition!"
These words instantly brought the sales atmosphere to a climax.
The audience was taken aback at first, then burst into enthusiastic applause and cheers.
The effect of this event was no less than that of live-streaming sales, and the audience's enthusiasm was completely ignited.
No sooner had he finished speaking than Lin Wufeng grabbed Factory Director An's arm and, without a word, started walking off the stage. "Come on, I said I'd sell it for twelve yuan!" he said.
At first, Director An struggled fiercely, kicking his feet wildly on the ground, trying to break free from Lin Wufeng's grip.
Unfortunately, Lin Wufeng was quite strong, and seeing that he couldn't break free, he could only reluctantly follow him off the stage.
As he went down, Director An didn't forget to turn back and glare fiercely at Zhuang Chaoying!
Zhuang Chaoying and Factory Director An exchanged a glance, almost bursting out laughing.
Seeing this, the audience felt a pang of sympathy for the seemingly "unlucky" factory manager, An. The factory price of the electric kettle was originally twelve yuan, but the price was wrongly quoted. He would lose three yuan for every one sold. Why not take advantage of this bargain? No, he had to buy one quickly.
An older woman frowned and muttered in dissatisfaction, "What kind of person is this, saying it's twelve yuan and then wanting to raise the price!"
The old man next to him chimed in, "Yes, the host is really honest!"
Where can I buy it?
Lin Dongzhe was shouting the loudest from below the platform. "Where can I buy one? I want one that heats up quickly; it's so convenient for boiling water!"
Lin Dongzhe truly didn't expect that Teacher Zhuang was not only a great lecturer, but also a master at persuasion. And then there was his father, who worked seamlessly with Teacher Zhuang – impressive! I admire him!
People in the crowd kept asking anxiously.
Seeing this, Zhuang Chaoying quickly pointed to the small table next to the platform.
"Friends, I risked getting fired from the factory to secure this great deal for you all. Those who want to buy can line up here and we'll sell it to you at the factory price of twelve yuan. As long as you buy the Xinsheng brand electric kettle, it comes with a three-month warranty if used according to the instructions, excluding damage caused by personal reasons or improper operation. We are a big brand, so it's guaranteed!"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately started lining up to buy an electric kettle.
Next to the booth, two staff members were collecting money to sell electric kettles. They had never seen such a scene before and were struggling to keep up with the crowd of older men, women, and aunties.
The scene was bustling with noise, as people excitedly discussed this rare shopping opportunity.
"I want one, it heats up quickly!"
"Give me one!"
"I was here first, give me this!"
Today, Factory Manager An arranged for a truck to carry 10,000 electric kettles, but to everyone's surprise, they were all sold out before 2 p.m.
Seeing the truck that was originally full of electric kettles now empty, Zhuang Chaoying felt a great sense of accomplishment. She hadn't expected this live-streaming sales model to work so well.
Zhuang Chaoying stood in a corner of the exhibition hall, her gaze sweeping over the row of neatly arranged electric kettles. She felt uneasy about promoting this sales method in this era.
After all, this was an unconventional marketing approach, and he wasn't sure if it could be sustained.
The electric kettle, originally priced at 15 yuan, is now only 12 yuan! That's a full 3 yuan cheaper, which is a significant discount and a real bargain. It's very attractive and quite genuine.
Later generations used exaggerated and outrageous sales pitches, shouting out prices for items costing thousands or hundreds of dollars.
"Not 299, not 199, not 99, just 9.9 yuan," and even so, quite a few people still believe it.
As the atmosphere grew increasingly heated, the customers' enthusiasm reached its peak.
Zhuang Chaoying turned to look at Lin Gong, who was also busy beside her. "Looks like we'll have to help out today too."
Lin nodded, and the two quickly joined the sales team.
Zhuang Chaoying sat at the table, carefully recording each customer's purchase information and date, while Lin Gong next to her was responsible for distributing warranty cards and collecting money. The two worked together very well.
Not far away, Factory Director An was sitting in a chair, and according to the previous "role-playing" setting, he was fuming, as if he was really angry about selling the electric kettle at this price.
He was secretly overjoyed, but he had to pretend to be calm. If he were to help sell the goods now, the whole "charade" would be exposed.
The customers below the stage were crowded together, waving banknotes and shouting at the top of their lungs.
I want two!
"Give me three!"
Around 2 PM, the food was so hot that it was almost sold out.
Zhuang Chaoying quickly picked up the microphone again and shouted to the audience who hadn't bought an electric kettle yet, "Don't worry, everyone. If you didn't buy one today, you can come back tomorrow. We plan to continue the exhibition for three days, and the benefits we've secured for everyone will remain unchanged. We said the factory price would be twelve yuan, and we'll definitely sell it to you for twelve yuan!"
A cheer erupted from the audience.
"I didn't manage to buy a hot water bottle today, but I'll come back to buy one tomorrow!"
"I want to come too, let's both come together."
"This factory is reliable and honest. They said it would be twelve, and they meant it. We got a great deal!"
"Yes, yes!"
Just then, a reporter from the Suzhou Daily, having heard the news of the trade fair being held on Guanqian Street, rushed over without stopping.
Unfortunately, the exhibition was nearing its end when they arrived.
The reporters' eyes lit up as they quickly captured the lively scene.
A young reporter was seen taking pictures of the electric kettles on the counter with his camera, then turning the lens to the dense crowd.
After taking the photos, the reporter, with a notebook and pen in hand, approached Zhuang Chaoying and Engineer Lin.
Zhuang Chaoying immediately recognized this as an excellent publicity opportunity, which had been handed to her by herself!
His eyes lit up instantly, and he quickly pulled Engineer Lin aside, smiling as he said to the reporter, "Comrade, let our Engineer Lin give you a detailed introduction to the electric kettle; it's our factory's flagship product!"
He then added, "Please be sure to include our factory's address and phone number in your report so that more people can learn about us."
Lin cleared his throat and methodically introduced the performance, advantages, and unique features of the electric kettle to the reporter.
The reporter listened attentively while quickly taking notes of key information in his notebook.
