213 They are not allowed to run on a track(2/2)
"General manager," Liu Donghai said, "One thousand sets seems a bit too much. Most people simply can't afford it."
Before Cao Zhiqiang could speak, Shen Zhenhua spoke first: "No. Because as soon as the purchase restriction order comes out, those second-rate dealers will not be able to buy additional books from Xinhua Bookstore, so they will have to purchase them from our publishing house.
If a single person cannot afford a thousand sets of money, they can form a partnership.
Don’t underestimate the wisdom of the crowd!
Suppose I am a second-rate dealer. If I hear that I can go directly to the publishing house and purchase the goods at a price of eight yuan a set.
So even if I don't have enough money on hand, I can get other people to pool their money together and then go together to buy books.
For example, if I can contribute 800 yuan, then I only need to find nine people who can contribute 800 yuan to collect 8,000 yuan, and then we can go to our publishing house and buy a thousand sets of books together.
If you buy the books, divide them up, and then set up stalls at the entrances of major universities, if you sell them for ten yuan a set, they will probably be sold out very quickly.
In this way, I have 800 yuan on hand, and if I partner with someone, I can make at least 200 yuan by changing hands, so why should I hesitate?"
"Hua Zi said it well." Cao Zhiqiang smiled.
"That's the reason. As long as our books are in demand and best-sellers, we don't have to worry about whether they have enough money to purchase them.
In fact, the reason why I raised the purchase threshold and started batching a thousand sets was to force them to join forces.
Second-rate dealers like this who are just making small fuss are just stragglers, not a big deal, and will only cause trouble.
Only by getting those second-rate dealers to unite and form large interest groups can I select the best and cooperate with them."
"Cooperate?" Shen Zhenhua opened his mouth, "Boss, no, General Manager, are you planning to cooperate with those second-rate dealers? Doesn't this mean you are lowering yourself?"
"What do you mean by lowering one's worth?" Cao Zhiqiang shrugged, "Hua Zi, don't underestimate those second-rate dealers. To a certain extent, these people are much better than Xinhua Bookstore.
In the future, if our publishing house wants to become bigger and stronger, it is likely that we will have to rely on the best of these second-rate dealers.
But it’s useless to say this now, you’ll know what I’m going to do in the future.”
Speaking of this, Cao Zhiqiang smiled and shook his head: "Okay, we'll talk about those things later.
Well, I brought some food over. Although it is leftovers, no one has touched it, and they are all cooked by famous chefs in big hotels. Do you want to eat some? If not, I will give it to others? "
"I want it," Shen Zhenhua said immediately with a playful smile, "Don't say it, general manager, if you didn't say it, I would have forgotten that it's dinner time.
Just keep this meal, I promise to eat it all."
Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly, then looked at Liu Donghai: "What about you?"
"Thank you, general manager." Liu Donghai also nodded quickly and said thank you, "I don't have any problem, I will have this for lunch."
"Don't you think it's leftover food?" Cao Zhiqiang asked.
"How can you dislike it?" Liu Donghai chuckled, "You look like a hard food in a big hotel. Besides, you said that no one has touched this, so you won't dislike it."
"As long as you don't dislike it." Cao Zhiqiang nodded, "It's still early, you two hurry up and eat. When you finish eating, you will notify me of my purchase restriction order and wholesale order."
"From now on, when you come to Xinhua Bookstore to buy, you can only buy one set per person per day, and the price will be strictly based on the set price. There will be no bargaining."
"If you want to buy in large quantities at one time and earn the price difference by being a second-hand dealer, just come directly to our publishing house. The price can be discounted."
"Real book consumers must be separated from second-rate dealers, and they must not be allowed to run on the same track. Do you understand?"
"I understand!" Shen Zhenhua and Liu Donghai replied at the same time.
"Very good!" Cao Zhiqiang smiled.
