Reborn in 08, Public Enemy of Competitors

The "September 26th Light Boat Brand Group" event quickly spread to every corner of the internet thanks to the external investment team's aggressive promotion on various websites and forums.

Du Manqing immediately told her parents the news.

At this moment, Du Zhou and Qin Xinyue sat in the study, staring intently at the countdown on the activity page, their hearts pounding like students waiting for their college entrance exam results to be announced.

"It's getting late, why don't we go to bed first?"

Looking at her husband's tense face, Qin Xinyue couldn't help but offer some words of comfort.

Du Zhou rubbed his eyes. "Sleep? How can I possibly fall asleep at a time like this!"

"Don't worry about it. The fact that Shen Mo was able to get 1000 million in investment from Tencent proves that he has real skills."

Qin Xinyue comforted him, "Since he said he could help us clear out our inventory, he must be absolutely certain of success."

"What I'm worried about isn't just this little bit of inventory."

Du Zhou shook his head. "At worst, we can just continue selling the National Day themed packages."

Qin Xinyue pressed further, "Then what are you worried about?"

"What I'm really worried about is whether our factory can find a way to survive by shifting from export to domestic sales! Whether we can successfully transform from OEM manufacturing! And whether we can make the 'Qingzhou' brand a success!"

Du Zhou's tone was somewhat solemn.

Qin Xinyue was momentarily speechless, so she simply placed her hand on his shoulder in support.

Du Zhou gently patted the back of her hand. "What does it matter if you fail once? As long as you win the last time, that's victory!"

………………

Meanwhile, the "September 26th Qingzhou Brand Group" event is spreading like wildfire in QQ groups.

Wu Fang noticed the pop-up ad for YiTao GO by chance, clicked on it, and was immediately drawn in.

A T-shirt priced at 69 yuan will be rebated with 61.9 yuan, bringing the final price down to just 6.9 yuan. Limited to 2000 pieces!

A shirt priced at 105 yuan will be rebated with 94.5 yuan, bringing the final price down to just 10.5 yuan. Limited to 1000 pieces!

A dress priced at 125 yuan will be rebated with 112.5 yuan, bringing the final price down to just 12.5 yuan. Limited to 1000 pieces!

He blinked, making sure he wasn't seeing things, and muttered instinctively, "This is way too cheap!"

Then, attention was focused on the non-limited quantity products on the event page. Although the rebate was greater than that of unlimited quantity products, it was still half price. Moreover, as long as the group purchase reached a certain number of people, a rebate bonus could be triggered.

满500元返50，满200元返20，满100元返利10……

YiTaoGO's brand sale event instantly shattered Wu Fang's previous online shopping experience. The prices were practically free!

"Hey, why isn't this link doing anything after clicking it for so long!"

Wu Fang frantically clicked the mouse, but found that nothing happened.

In a moment of panic, she shouted to her son, "Xiaoming, come quick, can you help Mommy? I can't open this!"

Gao Ming leaned over to take a look, then said speechlessly, "Mom, the event hasn't started yet."

Following the direction her son was pointing, Wu Fang saw the prominent countdown at the top of the event page and lightly patted her forehead.

"My bad, my bad! This price is so low, it's practically free! I thought they were already having a robbery!"

"Mom, nothing's wrong, I'll head back now."

"Hey, what's the rush? Since you're already here, I'll pick out a shirt and jeans for you, and maybe a suit too..."

"I don't need it, you should buy it for Dad and yourself."

Gao Ming took off running, eager to play DOTA with his classmates.

"You and your dad both have it, this child!"

Wu Fang rolled her eyes in annoyance, then sent the pre-sale group-buying link of YiTaoGO to her best friends in the group.

In an instant, the group chat erupted in a frenzy, with everyone chattering and talking at once.

"Wow! Suits are so cheap! My son is graduating and looking for a job, I need to buy him one."

"The dress is nice, but I've never heard of this brand before. Could it be a fake?"

"It's supposed to be a Wenzhou brand, it looks alright, at least the price is cheap enough!"

"Sister Wu, why can't I buy any? Did they all sell out?"

"It's not time yet, it won't be on sale until tomorrow. Go buy it early then, or it'll probably be sold out."

People were talking about it, complaining and worrying that cheap things couldn't be good, but on the day of the brand's event, they were all scrambling to buy it.

In less than an hour, the limited-edition items were sold out.

"Zhong Xue, have someone release tomorrow's supply as well."

Shen Mo decisively ordered, "Furthermore, on the product details page and in the customer service process, we should take the opportunity to recommend profitable or second-best-selling products to users, using exclusive coupons as a guide, and convert any potential lost traffic into orders as much as possible. Not a single drop can be wasted."

"Okay, boss."

Zhong Xue immediately accepted the order.

"Bi Fan, how's the data in the backend right now?"

Shen Mo turned his head to look.

"Brother Mo, the GMV has now exceeded one million, and the number of orders is almost ten thousand, totaling 8348 items."

Zhuang Bifan excitedly said, "Aside from the 4000 limited-edition items for attracting customers, there are 1426 second-best-selling items and 2922 regular items."

"These days, cheap and affordable is the only way to go."

Shen Mo smacked his lips, his brows furrowed in a smile.

"Boss, judging by the current trend, the current inventory probably won't last until the originally planned three-day event period."

Zhong Xue suggested, "Should we meet with President Du and the others to activate the emergency replenishment plan?"

"Okay, I'll go next door."

When Shen Mo arrived at room 306, he saw Du Manqing, Huang Jiajia, Ye Xiao and others already busy running around.

The Wangwang app kept ringing, and new order notifications kept popping up on the screen, one after another, it just wouldn't stop.

In the midst of her flustered state, Du Manqing seemed to sense something, raised her head, and noticed Shen Mo standing at the door.

"Why are you here?"

"Of course, it's on behalf of YiTaoGO to report the latest results to our brand partners."

"Your brand group's activities are really outrageous!"

"Over 50 yuan worth of goods were sold in just one hour!"

Du Manqing showed no sign of fatigue.

Shen Mo joked, "That's why I came to ask you, it seems like your inventory isn't enough to sell."

"Don't worry, my dad specially arranged for the factory to work overtime to produce a batch of suits, skirts, and shirts so that we could participate in the National Day themed group. If there aren't enough to go around, we can move these over."

A glint of light flashed in Du Manqing's eyes.

"Have you thought this through...?"

Shen Mo reminded them that the lead product is destined to lose money. Even if the second best-selling and profit-making products make a small profit, overall, they will barely break even, neither making a profit nor incurring a loss.

"We're not expecting to make a profit on this batch of goods. As long as we don't lose money and as long as the factory and workers have jobs, we've already succeeded halfway."

Du Manqing pursed her lips.

"Then you'll have to ask Uncle Du to prepare even more."

Shen Mo smiled and said, "Don't forget, Qingman and Qingzhou both signed up for the YiTaoGO themed group. The traffic during the National Day holiday will be much more terrifying than it is now."

"I'll call him right away!"

"First, tell him the good news that the light boat is selling very well!"

Du Manqing asked Ye Xiao and the others to keep an eye on the shop for her, and excitedly took out her phone to call Du Zhou, who had been waiting for good news.
