Chapter 73 Queue up to buy
Chapter 73 Queue up to buy (first order required)
The man at the front of the line was a middle-aged man in his thirties. He walked in quickly without even trying out the prototype. When he got to the counter, he took off his huge black backpack and spoke to the clerk in a heroic tone:
"Boss, give me fifty, thirty 8G units, fifteen 16G units, and five top-of-the-line Pro units."
"I only want black and silver for the 8G and 16G models, no other colors; I only want pink and purple and bright black for the Pro models, no other colors."
"Please help me put it in my bag!"
Then he turned to the clerk and said, "Can I put it on credit? Haha, I'm kidding. Where is your card machine? I'll swipe my card!"
After hearing this, the female clerk opposite her, whose smile had been trained so hard, seemed a little unnatural!
I've been selling mobile phones for so many years, but this is the first time I've seen someone buy a phone like this...
This arrogant tone immediately attracted the attention of the reporter nearby. However, before he could go up to interview her, the clerk said, "I'm sorry, our new phone is on sale and the stock is limited. There are hundreds of people waiting in line outside, so we have implemented a purchase restriction policy. Each person can only buy two!"
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment: "I have been waiting in line for a whole night... Besides, I am not broke. I have money. It's just fifty mobile phones. I can just swipe my card!"
The clerk had no choice but to say sorry!
The middle-aged man wanted to say something louder, but when he looked at the policeman who was standing at the door, looking at him through the glass door, he swallowed his words back: "Two, two. Let's get two Pro versions, one pink and purple, and one bright black!"
After swiping the card and getting the item, he didn't even open it. He just took the phone and walked to the small square outside to squat, then put up a sign on the spot: "Mobile phones for high prices, 8G and 16G add , Pro add !"
You know what, he actually bought a lot of mobile phones,
About an hour or two later, when the line was still more than a hundred meters long, there was a commotion in the front: "The stock has been cleared out, sold out!"
When the middle-aged man saw this scene, he immediately took out a cardboard and a marker and wrote on it: Brand new Zhiyun mobile phone, unopened and in stock, hurry up if you want to buy it!
Not only him, many scalpers around him also started to sell...
For a moment, the square was like a vegetable market. There were people in the front who had been queuing for a long time but couldn't buy anything and were venting their dissatisfaction, while some people in the back had already directly approached scalpers.
Soon, a man who looked very powerful walked up to the middle-aged scalper and asked, "How much is the pro?"
The middle-aged scalper took a look at the N95 in the big brother's hand, then looked at the heavily made-up young lady next to the big brother, and immediately said, "Four thousand and five!"
When the eldest brother heard this, he immediately said, "With just this little effort, you raised the price by 500? Didn't you charge 4,000 just now? I saw it."
The middle-aged scalper ignored him and pointed to another sign: No bargaining!
At this time, the little sister took the big brother's hand and said in a teasing tone: "Hey, brother, let's go, it's too dark, I don't want it..."
The eldest brother turned around and smiled: "How can this be possible? I have come all the way here. Besides, this is not much money. You have to believe in my ability!"
Then he went to the middle-aged scalper and said, "Hurry up and buy it. What are you waiting for? I have plenty of money!"
"Can you pay by credit card? I don't have any cash!"
The middle-aged scalper took out a POS machine like a magic trick: "Yes, it can be done!"
When the brother saw the POS machine, a trace of pain flashed across his face, but he still took out the bank card from his wallet.
When the scalper took the bank card, he found that it had not been touched... The big brother still held the bank card in his hand. He glanced at the big brother, then pulled it again with a little force, and finally pulled the bank card over.
This brother is quite interesting!
After swiping the card and getting the phone, the girl said to the older brother with a happy face: "Thank you, brother, you are so kind to me!"
The eldest brother waved his hands and said, "It's not a big deal... It's nothing. I'll buy you a whole house and a car later, and then everything will be ready!"
"I'm telling you, you have to believe in Big Brother's strength. He's not short of money!"

In the general manager's office of a small company in a fourth-tier city, the half-bald boss in his forties was watching the news on his computer, then looked down at the N95 in his hand. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that this N95 was not pleasing to the eye...
Because he thought of what Boss Xu said in the news: Going out with a cell phone as big as a brick is tantamount to social death!
After thinking about it for a while, he immediately found the Zhiyun Mobile Phone Flagship Store in Jingxi Mall, and then started shopping and placing an order!
The entire shopping process took less than five minutes! He first spent four minutes and thirty seconds choosing the color scheme, especially the style for his daughter, and compared them repeatedly for a full four minutes before finally choosing the pink and purple star sand color scheme.
Then he bought a bright black color for himself, and a silver-gray color for his wife.
All three mobile phones are Pro models!
I also spent about 29 seconds briefly glancing at the price and the introductory picture on the details page, but I didn’t look at it in detail…
So when he moved the mouse and prepared to click the purchase button, he didn't even know the size of the phone's screen, what CPU it used, or how much RAM it had!
Because there is no need to know!
The flagship model of a high-end brand is more than enough for him, and he doesn't need to look at the configuration or consider the cost-effectiveness.
As for the price, he actually doesn't care too much... Whether it's 3799 or 4799, it makes no difference to him.
He was even too lazy to claim the limited-time 50-yuan discount subsidy offered by Jingxi!
Again, there’s no need!
He used the last second to click the buy option...
Then he found that he couldn't move...
When I clicked again, the purchase option turned gray... What's going on?
He thought there was a problem, so he refreshed the page... and then he saw three big words: Sold Out!
He was stunned when he saw this scene. Wasn’t it said that the sale would start at 9 o’clock? It’s only 9:06 now... and it’s sold out so quickly?
But such a small matter did not bother him. He immediately went to Taobao to look around and found a scalper who directly increased the price and placed an order for three C1 Pros.
After placing the order, he went to the forum to take a look. A group of people were posting there complaining about not being able to get the products and saying that scalpers were charging high prices.
After reading it, a smile appeared on his face!
A real man never complains about the environment!

In Guangcheng, at 1: am, Yu Taihe in the school dormitory gathered around his classmates, watching them refreshing the purchase page of the Zhiyun C mobile phone from time to time.
The above promotional photo of Zhiyun C1 is beautiful and full of technology, which makes both of them stare at it!
This phone, how should I put it, looks very high-end...
At this time, Yu Taihe's classmate refreshed his screen with a confused look on his face: "Taihe, do you think this silver-gray color looks better or this black one?"
Yu Taihe pointed to the bright black color of the star sand and said, "This one is more beautiful. The color is just like the starry sky at night!"
His classmate was speechless: "Don't make a fuss, I can't afford the C1 Pro. This top configuration is too expensive, 8 yuan. My dad only gave me yuan to buy a phone. I gritted my teeth and squeezed out some money from my living expenses to get an GB one!"
Yu Taihe said: "That is also black, the black color of the 8GB version is also very beautiful, and it looks very technological."
His classmate said, "Really? I think the black one looks good too. Oh... forget it, I have to get it!"
"I was just a little short in the morning, and I hesitated a little when choosing the color. As a result, the goods were sold out because of this hesitation. I was so angry."
Time passed and soon it was twelve o'clock. When the purchase options were displayed on the page, Yu Taihe's classmates immediately took action. It only took one or two seconds to complete the selection and color matching and then entered the checkout interface.
When they saw the payment was successful, Yu Taihe's classmates jumped up excitedly: "Finally got it!"
But after the excitement, he said with a sad face: "But I'm going to have to eat dirt this month, damn it, I'll also look for some part-time jobs starting tomorrow!"
"But Taihe, you have so many part-time jobs, and you even went out to work part-time during the winter vacation. You should have saved up a lot of money. Do you want to buy one? Then we can each have one, and we can show it to them and make them envy us to death!"
Yu Taihe looked bitter: "How can I afford it? I have to use the money I earn from my part-time job as living expenses!"
Taking his family situation into consideration, he didn't even receive any living expenses from his family this semester, and had to earn all his living expenses through part-time jobs.
As a college student, he naturally wanted something like a smartphone, as he had opened his eyes to the world...
But the Zhiyun phone is too expensive, even the low-end version costs 2,800 yuan. This kind of high-end phone is simply beyond his reach now.
At this time, Yu Taihe looked at the Little Blue phone in his hand and thought to himself: It would be great if the Little Blue phone could also be a smart phone.
Given the price/performance ratio of the Xiaolan phone, it should be possible to make a smartphone priced at over a thousand, right?
In this way, if you work hard to save some money, and then go out to work during the summer vacation, you may even be able to buy a smartphone for more than a thousand yuan after you have saved up enough living expenses!
Well, I hope BlueMobile doesn’t make smartphones too expensive!
