Chapter 77: The Lion's Mouth Opens
VCD is very popular in major shopping malls.
5,000 units were sold in 10 days, which was just a place in Tokyo. Nakamura sent a sales team to start shipping all over Japan. At the same time, it placed more orders to the OEM factory and asked the factory to speed up the work.
It can be said that VCD has definitely become the most eye-catching product this year.
After eating and wearing warm clothes, humans' biggest pursuit is entertainment. VCD can listen to music, watch movies, and sing karaoke OK, which can meet the needs of different groups of people. The whole family has a lot of fun together.
It is natural that sales are hot.
A month later, the sales of VCDs reached an astonishing 40,000 units. Jiang Hao earned a VCD and made a pure profit of 75 US dollars, which is equivalent to Jiang Hao making 3 million US dollars in a month. Jiang Hao felt that he had money all of a sudden.
If he follows this rate, he can earn 36 million US dollars a year, which is US dollars, not Japanese yen, equivalent to 4 trillion yen. What a huge number this is.
And this is just Japan,
What if it is the entire Asia, the four Asian dragons, the entire Southeast Asia, and there is a larger Chinese market.
There are even more American and European markets.
Wan Yan was in China and sold nearly one million VCDs in the first year. Can you imagine the price he sold at that time? 5,600 yuan. At that time, a person's monthly salary was only three or four hundred yuan.
And the next year, he sold 3 million units.
In the third year, hehe, because there was no patent, the counterfeit VCD rose up and knocked down Wan Yan over. Wan Yan's glory was gone, but that year China sold more than 6 million VCDs.
If this business starts, Jiang Hao will no longer have to worry about spending money. Of course, the premise is that he can continue the business safely.
The hot sales of VCDs naturally attracted the attention of other major electrical appliance manufacturers. Sony, Hitachi, Panasonic, and Toshiba, these major electrical appliance manufacturers also have video recorder production and sales businesses. Because of the emergence of VCD, their video recorder business has greatly reduced.
The headquarters building of a Japanese group, in the office of the vice president,
A sixty-year-old man is listening to a report from a middle-aged subordinate.
"The vice president, it has been investigated clearly. The Jianghao Electric Appliances Store was run by a Chinese. Everyone is named Zhao Tie. He used to smuggle from China to Japan. He is now the leader of a violent group in Shinjuku. He has about 600 gang members, all of whom are Chinese."
"Zhao Tie went to the United States to attend a radio exhibition a few days ago and purchased this technology. After returning, he commissioned the institute to develop VCD. Now Zhao Tie has the patent for 'video decompression' technology and all patents for VCD."
The old man's fingers were knocking on the table regularly, "The Chinese, the gang leader, have all patents."
"How is the sales of VCD now?" the old man asked.
"Last month, it is estimated that about 40,000 units will be sold, and this month it will be more. Their sales methods are very powerful and attract many young people." said the middle-aged subordinate.
"You analyze the prospects of VCD machines."
"The prospect is very good. Japan can sell about one million units every year and about ten million units in Asia. If it enters Europe and the United States, it is estimated that this number can double."
"And so it can also drive the CD business. In the past, the songs, movies, etc. in our company could be re-made and sold. Our profits of this item are no less than the sales profit of VCD machines, or even greater."
"If VCD machines and CDs are all counted, they should be able to reach a sales market of around $1.5 to $2 billion a year."
"1.5 to 2 billion, find a way to buy that small trading company." The old man said.
The middle-aged subordinate paused, "President, it may be difficult. After all, with such a good market prospect, he will not sell it easily."
"Then go and find a way!"
......
Such conversations not only happen in this company, but many large groups have set their sights on Jiang Hao's VCD business.
VCD sales were very popular. Jiang Hao received the first payment and had money in his hand. Jiang Hao paid back the usury he borrowed before and invested another million US dollars in gang construction. The current Siberian Tiger Gang is managed by Jiang Hao in an orderly manner, and everyone has their own clear division of labor.
Recruiting, training.
Jiang Hao's purpose is to build the Siberian Tiger Gang into Japan's largest Chinese community. He doesn't know what he will face in the future, but it is necessary to make sufficient preparations.
He has been in this world for several months, from a poor stowaway to the boss of the party, the president of the trading company, and hundreds of younger brothers under him, but the system has no response at all. The task is to make him fight, but there is no quantitative standard at all.
Close the system, pick up a cigar and light it. At this moment, the door was knocked, "Come in."
Kento Nakamura walked into the office, "Boss, I have something to report to you."
"Sit down and say."
"Thank you, boss. Many large companies have sent people to visit our company these days, some of which are here to seek sales cooperation, and some are preparing to invest or acquire our company."
"Who will be there to acquire our company?" Jiang Hao asked with interest.
"Japan's Sony, Panasonic, Toshiba, and Best Buy in the United States, and two investment companies want to invest in us, Goldman Sachs and SoftBank. You have explained it before, so I will receive these in advance, but they all really want to meet you and chat in person."
"Do they have a bid?"
"No, I just put forward an intention. As for the price, I'm afraid it will be sold after seeing you."
Whether to sell or not or how to sell is a big question.
Compared with Jiang Hao, he is preparing to introduce investment. After all, his strength is limited. VCD is not only a matter of selling machines, but also involves film and television copyrights. If VCDs continue to sell hot products, they have to buy more songs, film and television copyrights and make them into CDs, so that the entire ecological chain can be built up.
And all this resource is in the hands of large companies, and it may involve a whole world and cannot be played by him alone.
"In this way, you send a notice in the name of the company. I am going to hold a small meeting. Any company that intends to purchase the equity of Jianghao Electric Appliances Bank can come to participate. Of course, if you want to choose a small company, don't come, just invite those powerful large groups."
Kento Nakamura bowed out.
Three days later, I was at the Peninsula Hotel in Japan. This time, it was in a small conference room on the 10th floor. More than a dozen business representatives came to attend the meeting. As soon as Jiang Hao came out, he attracted everyone's attention. Although people had already understood his situation clearly, I still felt a little unbelievable when I saw such a young and handsome person in person. It was this young man who developed a gang and a compelling company in just a short time.
Jiang Hao sat down, glanced around and said, "Everyone, I think everyone's purpose here is basically the same. Now that VCD is developing rapidly, it will definitely replace the original video recorder market, and CDs will also replace the old video tape. This market is huge, with a market size of 20 billion US dollars."
When many people heard Jiang Hao say this, they frowned because Jiang Hao understood very well, so for them, the price would definitely exceed expectations.
"So I think that $100 million per 5% of the stock is a relatively reasonable price."
