Rebirth Tokyo 1986

Chapter 28 Sales are booming

The suitcases were about to enter the market, and although Masato Takeshita appeared calm on the surface, he was actually so nervous that he didn't sleep all night.

The next morning, after eating a quick bite, he hurriedly drove to a large shopping mall where he had ordered a pair of trolley suitcases, wanting to get first-hand information on sales.

"Do you have any of those rolling suitcases like the ones in the TV commercial yesterday?"

"Yes, they are all here. Boss, do you want to try it?"

"Okay, I'll give it a try."

The young man hurriedly took the suitcase, and the result was just as he had seen on TV. It was indeed no longer troubled by tipping over and was extremely convenient to use.

"Yes, bring me one. No, three."

He suddenly remembered that his two bosses were going on a business trip today, so he quickly prepared to buy two more. If he was the only one who had them, you could imagine how his bosses would look.

Even if he is not given a hard time, he will leave the impression that he is useless.

It’s different now, he can do things directly.

Be concerned about what the leader needs and think about what the leader thinks.

Maybe the boss will be happy and give him a promotion.

While the man was happily dreaming, the suitcases welcomed the main force of buyers - flight attendants.

"How about it, Fujii, isn't it convenient?"

"Yes, it is very convenient."

After seeing the new suitcase, Captain Fujii immediately nodded in agreement. This new suitcase is really convenient, and I really have to thank this company.

"how much is it?"

"Hello, sir, 29999 yen."

"Give!"

Pilots are high-paying positions, and a mere 29999 yen is nothing in their eyes.

After the purchase, the two immediately went home to change into new suitcases, and then when they went to work in the afternoon, they caused a sensation in the entire crew and became the coolest guys in the entire company.

"Fujii, Yasuda, what are you doing?"

"How is it? Not bad, isn't it? This is the new suitcase we bought at the mall. It's very useful."

Fujii greeted his colleagues with a smile and spontaneously promoted a suitcase.

"It's really useful. There's actually a suitcase like this. I want to buy one too. What's the name of the suitcase?"

My colleagues were amazed at the new suitcase. They didn't expect there was such a convenient suitcase in the world.

“Fengya, a very sophisticated brand name.”

"Yes, sorry, I have to leave for a while. I'll ask for leave from my boss and buy the next one."

"Well, go ahead. I see there are limited quantities over there, don't sell them out."

Although there are not many of them for sale in the mall now, Fujii guessed that the suitcases would be sold out soon.

Because this thing is so convenient.

In addition to flight attendants, it is also a necessity for business people and politicians. With the influence of one person telling ten people, and ten people telling a hundred people, the number of people buying it will definitely increase.

Masato Takeshita didn't know that the two men who had just purchased the suitcases were flight attendants and would soon attract a large number of users to the Fengya travel luggage.

He was secretly happy there because he sold more than a dozen suitcases in less than an hour.

The advertisement must have played a significant role. It also proved one thing, that is, the market demand for trolley suitcases is very strong.

After writing down the data of this mall, Masato Takeshita drove to a medium-sized specialty store. This is the channel of Matsumoto Manufacturing. Although the flow of people is not as much as that of a large mall, there are still many people coming in and out.

"Boss, give me two Fengya." "Boss, I want one."

The shop owner looked at the crowd that kept calling out for purchases, his face wrinkled with joy. He quickly handed the suitcases to the customers and happily counted and gave change.

"As expected of me, the moment I saw the suitcases, I knew they were great stuff, and I ordered 200 of them right away. I made a profit of 100 million."

"Unfortunately, I'm not brave enough. If I had ordered 1000 pieces at once, I would have made 500 million in one go."

"By the way, we should order it right away. We may not be able to sell enough of what we have now."

The shop owner saw that the number of suitcases was decreasing and immediately remembered that he had to place an order immediately. He was worried that Matsumoto Manufacturing's production capacity was limited and he would not be able to buy any even if he wanted.

The store owner is not the only smart person, many people have seen business opportunities in this.

Matsumoto Manufacturing's own channels and the channels brought by Industrial Bank began to call the factory to place orders.

"How many do you want, 1000 pieces? Sorry, we don't have that many at the moment. We can only provide 200 pieces."

"You're ordering 200 pieces? Sorry, we only have 50 pieces for the time being."

From 9: in the morning, Matsumoto Manufacturing started to receive new orders from the market. At first, everyone was very excited, proving that the product sales were good.

But soon, everyone realized that it was too early to get excited.

As the suitcases are selling well, the orders from distributors are increasing. Therefore, Matsumoto Manufacturing has to reduce the order quantity of each distributor to avoid a large backlog of products or hoarding by merchants.

Suzuki Zensuke was as happy as he could be at this moment. When he saw his president coming back, he excitedly reported to him the sales of the suitcases.

"President, our product is a big hit. More than 9 pieces, all of which have now been shipped to various stores."

"I know, don't get excited, didn't we expect this?"

Masato Takeshita was worried that the old man would get agitated, so he went over to him, quickly took him to sit down, and tried to soothe him by giving him tea.

"I know, I'm just so happy."

"Yeah, the product is a big hit, who wouldn't be happy?"

In most cases, when a company's products sell well, its employees will be happy because the company eats the meat, the management drinks the soup, and the employees can also enjoy some of the leftovers.

If nothing else, at least the bonus will increase significantly.

As for the few non-human enterprises, take advantage of them as soon as you come across them.

If the company doesn't pay more when it's making money, the consequences can be imagined once it runs into operational difficulties.

If you don't handle it right, you might even end up with the weird thing of having to pay to work.

"In that case, starting tomorrow, our company will implement a policy of direct payment upon delivery of suitcases to avoid cash flow constraints."

"Payment to ship?"

"That's right. We are in a strong position now, so of course we have to collect the money first."

Between distributors and factories, whoever is stronger will gain more benefits.

Now this trolley suitcase is unique in the world. Even if some channel dealers are arrogant and refuse to sign, countless merchants will flock to it.

There is never a shortage of people in profitable business.

If you don't sign, there are plenty of people who will.

"But this violates the rules we have always followed."

As Suzuki Zensuke gets older, he becomes more and more conservative and doesn't really want to change the current policies.

"That was in the past. We have improved now, so we need to be stronger. If we were still like before, our capital chain would be too tight and we would not be able to grow quickly."
