Chapter 61 Both of them have girlfriends!
On the first floor of the dormitory building, several dormitory doors were open, and the rooms were crowded with people with TVs on.
Some people couldn't squeeze in, so they rushed up to the second or third floor.
All the television sets were playing Yancheng TV's "Yancheng People's Livelihood" program.
At that moment, on the television screen, a pretty female reporter was interviewing a young citizen.
"Hey, this young man from Jiangcheng is quite handsome. He'll look even better on TV," an older woman said with a smile.
"Why is the person conducting the interview interviewing Jiang Cheng? Doesn't he know that Jiang Cheng is the one who's doing this?"
"Didn't you see the boss standing behind Jiang Cheng? It must be Jiang Cheng and the boss who invited the TV station people. Speaking of which, this young man Jiang Cheng is really capable at such a young age. He can make money for people and even get the TV station to come."
"That female reporter is really pretty."
"Can anyone be as good-looking as our boss?"
"Do you guys think the boss and Jiang Cheng are already a couple?"
"Shhhh!"
The TV program was still playing.
Female reporter: "We received a tip from the public today that there is a fraud gang operating in Yonghui Mall."
"Let's interview Mr. Li, who has been observing this place for quite some time..."
The original reason for Su Xiaoqing's interview was that someone reported fraud, which was also the beginning of the program.
However, the interview process was completely different.
After taking the materials back, the station's leaders reviewed them but couldn't find any trace of fraud. Although there were signs of misleading consumers, that wasn't their responsibility.
And what's so enticing about buying a wallet for ten yuan?
Ten wallets can be exchanged for one hundred yuan to buy genuine leather shoes.
In addition, the intern reporter earned 3,200 yuan during the program. Not only that, but he also brought back a wallet that was packed in a very high-end box. It is said that it would sell for more than 200 yuan outside.
Could this be a scam?
If this is a scam, then I hope there are more people being scammed.
So the leader made the decision and it was played!
Although the interview didn't uncover any scam gimmicks, this thing called a blind box is something I've never seen before, it doesn't exist anywhere else, but it was invented in Yancheng, so it must be a gimmick!
Actually, not many people watch Yancheng TV; it's mostly locals.
Locals don't watch it much, but blind boxes are very attractive because you can't lose money no matter how you look at it!
Even if you don't earn several thousand dollars like the female reporter, you can still buy leather shoes and a wallet.
But what if, what if, you also find Nick's wallet inside?
"Honey, shall I go buy you a wallet tomorrow?" Aunt Li said to her husband as she watched TV, after finishing an interview program.
His wife pursed her lips and said, "I only have thirty yuan of pocket money a month, what use is a wallet to me?"
Judging from the expression on his face, he was clearly not telling the truth.
I thought to myself, having a wallet is quite prestigious, otherwise my pockets would be empty, but a wallet can make them look fuller.
Apart from people like Aunt Li.
There are also some wealthy families who have different priorities.
"Hey, what brand is Nick's wallet? I've never heard of it before, and it's so expensive?"
"I've never heard of it either, but you see on TV, it seems like everyone knows Nick's wallet is expensive."
"I'll buy one tomorrow; this wallet will make me look good!"
"More than ten thousand."
"Didn't you see people buying new ones and then buying more? You can wait and buy one; you should be able to get one for two or three thousand."
……
Of course, with the TV program airing, many people wanted to buy blind boxes.
But in fact, quite a few people are paying attention to the blind box business.
"Is this even allowed? You can just pack things up in a box and sell them without letting people look at them?"
"That Nick thing is obviously a gimmick, using it to lure people into buying things. There's no such thing as one in a thousand on average; anyone selling blind boxes can arrange that!"
"And look at that Nick guy, the cost price is definitely no more than a hundred dollars, but he dares to say it's eighteen thousand. We can also make something and say it's over ten thousand or twenty thousand, then put it in a box, and we can also take it out and sell it at a low price, selling it for several thousand dollars, saying it's a consignment from a customer!"
"I think I can do this business too!"
Especially for some factory workers, after watching the interviews, they found a way to sell off their inventory!
Many people were inspired to start their own blind box business after watching this TV program.
Jiang Cheng had certainly thought of this as well, but he knew that business cannot be kept secret, and worrying about others imitating you cannot be a core competitive advantage.
Moreover, the blind box business seems very simple. Anyone who isn't stupid can figure out the principle behind it by taking a closer look. So even if it's not on TV, people will still imitate it.
Whether these imitators will ultimately succeed remains to be seen, but the popularity of Jiangcheng Qingning Blind Box has certainly increased!
When Jiangcheng was about to return, he heard the workers discussing something.
He felt a growing sense of urgency; he hadn't expected things to develop so quickly. The arrival of the television station, though a timely help, had indeed come too fast.
"Hopefully we can get things done with the people at Yonghui headquarters by tomorrow, otherwise it will be harder in a few days. When there is more competition and the traffic is scattered, we will need to use more brains to make it work."
Jiang Cheng thought to himself.
After leaving the factory, Ye Lingxi drove Jiang Cheng and Shen Youqing back home. Shen Youqing didn't drive today.
She and Jiang Cheng sat in the back row.
Shen Youqing said, "Jiang Cheng, I'm sorry, I can't guarantee you whether the headquarters will approve your application to open a stall in Yonghui Mall nationwide when they come tomorrow."
Jiang Cheng saw Shen Youqing's cold face and her long, seemingly glowing legs in the dimly lit back seat, and smiled. "It's alright, I'm already very grateful to you. I won't thank you enough, I'll just repay you with my body."
"Hey, there are outsiders here," Ye Lingxi said while driving.
Shen Youqing rolled her eyes at Jiang Cheng, then turned to look out the car window and remained silent.
Although she wasn't good at business, her high-achieving nature and intelligence were not lacking. Seeing the news go viral, she knew that many people would start to imitate her.
If Jiangcheng cannot quickly expand its market and secure a stall in Yonghui Mall, the difficulty of growing bigger will increase exponentially.
Ye Lingxi drove, and since it was on her way, she first took Shen Youqing home, and then took Jiang Cheng.
But before Shen Youqing even arrived, Jiang Cheng's phone rang; it was his mother calling.
Because current mobile phones are still keypad phones, the speaker is extremely loud and there is no anti-sound function.
So the sound from Jiang Cheng's phone carried directly through the quiet carriage.
It was Jiang Cheng's mother's voice coming through the phone: "Son, did you know you were on TV? Those two girls are prettier than the female reporter. Which one is your girlfriend?"
Shen Youqing blushed immediately, and Ye Lingxi, who was sitting in front, exclaimed, "Auntie, both of them!"
