Reborn since 1993

Chapter 750 This is unscientific

The sudden shortage of stargazing video recorders in America not only did not reduce its popularity, but instead caused it to soar.

The more people cannot get something, the more agitated they become. This is human nature, and few people can control their nature.

Under urging from all sides, Duan Youli set up all the reserved digital video recorder production lines, transferred a group of trained personnel to the new production lines, and began to fully produce star-gazing video recorders.

In addition to the reserved production line, Duan Youli also began to prepare a new production line for stargazing video recorders. He didn't know whether an annual output of 400,000 units could withstand the market in America!

While the production department of Dongling Hi-Tech was busy producing machines, stargazing became extremely popular in America.

In addition, the media hired by Microsoft and Tanglin Hi-Tech North America fanned the flames, making stargazing a product for middle-class American families in recent days, and also a way to judge whether male and female couples care about each other...

In addition, some middle-class families who bought stargazing video recorders "inadvertently" showed them to their neighbors at neighborhood gatherings, which stimulated countless American families!

The result of this hype was that five days later, Duan Youli finally increased the daily production capacity to about 1,200 units, and a total of 6,000 machines were airlifted to America.

Then, when stores such as Aventurine, Microsoft and Best Buy announced the arrival of stargazing recorders, a scene occurred that left countless people dumbfounded.

Six thousand stargazing video recorders were sold out in major cities across America in less than one hour and thirty-five minutes after they went on sale!

It was indeed a rush. The machines released in New York and Los Angeles were sold out in less than half an hour. The sales in other cities were slower, otherwise they would have been sold out even faster!
"This is the scene in front of the largest Best Buy store in New York. These people are lining up to buy stargazing video recorders!"

A New York TV station was broadcasting footage shot by a reporter. It showed a queue of more than a few dozen people that had been lining up there since early morning. After Best Buy opened, those people went straight to the stargazing counter.

The host changed the subject and pointed his finger at the screen behind him, and the backstage picture was suddenly changed.

"This is the result of a survey of more than 2,700 households by Ladies' Home Journal, Good Housewife, Better Homes and Gardens, and the New York Times.

Currently, more than 64% of American housewives want to get a stargazing video recorder! "

"In addition, in the past week, stargazing video recorders have become the first choice when American families choose gifts!"

The host was on TV, talking and promoting the popularity of stargazing.

There is no need to think too much, this TV station must have received public relations fees, otherwise how could it promote it so vigorously.

Although the reports on TV were exaggerated, stargazing is indeed becoming popular among many American families.

Regardless of whether this thing is useful or not, it’s like in a family, other people’s husbands or wives buy it for each other, why don’t you buy it, does it mean you don’t love them anymore?
When something is regarded as a symbol of love, it goes beyond the material scope and begins to have other meanings, such as diamond rings, Christmas Eve apples, and now stargazing recorders.

There is no need for any reason to buy it. Middle-class families want to buy it to follow in the footsteps of the upper class, and couples want to use it to prove their concern for each other.

Nearly 60 to 70 million middle-class American families have become the largest user group of stargazing recorders. Whether it is for face or for family harmony, there is always a reason to buy it...

The insufficient production capacity has invisibly created a hunger marketing effect, which has completely ignited the demand for stargazing recorders among middle-class families in America.

Starting with that batch of 6,000 machines, Dongling Hi-Tech's production department began to airfreight daily production capacity to America.

But even if Duan Youli tried his best to increase the daily production capacity to 2,000 units, this amount of goods is just a drop in the bucket compared to the number of middle-class families in America!

This resulted in the machines that were put on the market every day being basically sold out, and scalpers who had smelled the potential also started to get in on the action, making stargazing even more difficult to come by.

Even stores like Best Buy have started bundling sales and pre-sales, which means that if you want to buy a stargazer at Best Buy, you have to buy it with other products, and you have to pay in advance to make a reservation.

It's obvious that Best Buy is targeting middle-class families in America, but there are people who actually fall for it!
At this time, the retail price of stargazing video recorders in the Americas had already skyrocketed. The retailers didn't care about the official selling price of $320 set by Dongling Hi-Tech at all and just marked up the price.

Amid the popularity of stargazing, the share price of Feiyan Technology, the parent company of Himalaya Radio, which claims to be the one promoting stargazing, has soared.

Tang Jun has been extremely active these days, frequently appearing in various media, claiming that the reason stargazing sells so well is all thanks to the podcasts of Himalaya Radio. Himalaya Radio has become the company with the best commercial promotion in America.

No matter whether what Tang Jun said is true or not, as long as you are thick-skinned, it is others who will be embarrassed. The stock price of Feiyan Technology has indeed been soaring in the past few days!
In addition, Microsoft’s stock price has also continued to perform the elephant dance drama. The stock price has continued to soar. The soaring stock price has also made Microsoft advertise stargazing even harder!
Not only Feiyan Technology, but IBM has also joined in the fun, constantly promoting the stargazing hard drives, which are supplied by IBM, and trying to ride on the popularity to boost the stock price.

Shares of major retailers selling star-gazing video recorders, such as Best Buy and Wal-Mart, also soared.

However, what completely detonated these stock prices in the American stock market was Bloomberg Businessweek's sales forecast for stargazing recorders.

"Stargazing video recorders are becoming standard equipment for middle-class and above families in America at an astonishing rate. This is a brand new market!

If production capacity can keep up, it is estimated that the sales market for TV digital video recorders in America will be between 1.5 million and 3 million units in the future.

If we can develop the middle-class family market in developed countries such as Europe and Canada, the global market size of TV recorders is likely to reach more than 6 million units, and the industry size may reach more than 2 billion US dollars! "Don't worry about whether this report is nonsense or not, or how long the entire digital video recorder market can last. Anyway, once the report comes out, it will be a big boon to Microsoft.

After so many years of hard work, Microsoft has finally created a new hardware industry. How much money it makes is not important to Microsoft. The most important thing is that having this market is important to it!
……

When he came to Shuchuan Securities First Exchange again, Xu Jiangwei had already recovered from the previous blow.

The last time he was defeated by Sichuan Rong Electronics, Xu Jiangwei thought that Sichuan Rong Electronics had reached its peak. After all, apart from relying on Dongling Hi-Tech, he really couldn't see what other capabilities Sichuan Rong Electronics had.

But the result was a slap in the face for Xu Jiangwei. The stock price of Changhong, which he was optimistic about, kept falling after it reached the highest point of 66.18 yuan that day, leaving him deeply trapped.

However, Chuanrong Electronics, which Xu Jiangwei was not optimistic about, saw its stock price soar because it received an order for the second-generation Shenzhou electronic dictionary. Its market value exceeded 53 billion yuan, and the net worth of Chuanrong Electronics' boss Jin Shengmao exceeded billion, ranking him among the top ten richest people in Sichuan.

After that blow, Xu Jiangwei was depressed for a long time and threw away several of the stock data analysis books he had bought.

During this period, Xu Jiangwei finally came out, holding his thermos cup, and went to the trading hall again, because the stock price of Sichuan Rong Electronics had started to fall in recent days.

"Teacher Xu is here!"

"How is Mr. Xu's health?"

"Teacher Xu, do you still hold Changhong shares? They have fallen by almost 20%. How long will it take for the correction to take place?"

As soon as he sat down and before he had time to take a sip of the water in the thermos, Xu Jiangwei was surrounded by a group of people, asking questions in a flurry.

Although there were some old investors who were cheated by Xu Jiangwei's analysis before, Xu Jiangwei did not deceive them. He acted as a stock trustee or something, as he also bought stocks himself.

Another thing is that there are only a few people who can analyze stocks now, and even fewer old hands like Xu Jiangwei who understand "technology". Although his analysis may not be accurate, if you don't listen to his analysis, you will feel even more uncertain.

But compared to a few months ago, Xu Jiangwei is now much more cautious. He did not dare to speak casually and just responded to everyone with a smile.

"I still hold Changhong's stocks. I am optimistic about Changhong's future. Changhong will definitely be the leader in China's TV market in the future."

After saying this, Xu Jiangwei quickly added, "This is my personal opinion, for reference only. Investment is a personal matter, so you should still base it on your own ideas!"

After hearing Xu Jiangwei's words, several people nearby who had bought Changhong stocks felt more at ease. They thought about continuing to hold on and selling them after making a profit.

"Teacher Xu, what do you think of Chuanrong Electronics?"

"Yes, Mr. Xu, we still hold the shares of Chuanrong Electronics!"

"Can the share price of Chuanrong Electronics ever go back up?"

Hearing the name of Chuanrong Electronics, Xu Jiangwei's mouth twitched unconsciously. To be honest, he really didn't want to hear this name again, which caused him to suffer a Waterloo in his stock career.

Looking up at the big screen in the stock exchange hall, the name of Sichuan Rong Electronics was prominently displayed. However, compared with the stock price a few months ago, the stock price of Sichuan Rong Electronics had fallen a lot, but compared with Changhong, it was not so bad.

Under the expectant gazes of the crowd, Xu Jiangwei hesitated for a moment, and then said, "In my opinion, the share price of Chuanrong Electronics may need to be adjusted for a while.

In addition, Dongling Hi-Tech, the company that provides the largest orders to Chuanrong Electronics, is going to launch a purely domestic brand of Shenzhou computers. It is hard to say whether it can survive in the competition with old brands such as Lianxiang and Founder, as well as foreign computer brands! "

Listening to Xu Jiangwei's analysis, the people around him obviously agreed that the new track chosen by Dongling Hi-Tech was indeed not good. The computers produced might not necessarily sell better than other brands.

If Shenzhou Computer fails, Chuanrong Electronics, which supplies Shenzhou Computer, will suffer huge losses.

According to the announcement released by Sichuan Rong Electronics, in order to cooperate with Dongling Hi-Tech's computer project, Sichuan Rong Electronics has built new factories, recruited R&D personnel, purchased equipment, set up new production lines, etc., and the total cost has exceeded hundreds of millions of RMB. Subsequent plans will also invest more funds.

If the performance of Shenzhou Computer fails, it means that all the early investments of Chuanrong Electronics have been wasted, and it is unknown how much the stock price will fall.

"Up!"

"Chuanrong Electronics has reached its daily limit!"

At this moment, someone shouted, attracting everyone in the trading hall.

Xu Jiangwei, who had just spoken and was about to drink some water from the thermos to moisten his throat, was stunned before the water even reached his lips.

No, Xu Jiangwei was not sure, what did he hear just now? !
