Chapter 245 Shopping Mall(1/2)
The competition is in full swing, and at the same time, major peripheral products are being produced frantically.
Due to the opening up of overseas markets, the production base has long been expanded.
There are two production bases in Yuzhang alone, and two more in Huguang.
After entering July, Mao Long came to Yuzhang to report to Wu Qi face to face.
He is mainly responsible for domestic affairs and also supervises the preparatory work of the film and television city.
At present, the total number of domestic directly-operated stores has exceeded 300, divided into provinces across the country.
The number of store employees exceeded 10,000. In addition to sales, they were also responsible for shipping.
With the sales of peripheral products booming, Soger Company has begun to prepare a freight team in China.
The customized trucks are still in the new energy vehicle factory in Zhangzhou.
Some time ago, after all the Silver Wings 9 were delivered.
Wang Yan followed Wu Qi's request and rushed to build five ambulances.
There are only two ambulances actually put into use, and they are still being worked on.
Therefore, it will take some time for new energy trucks to be manufactured.
At present, Soger Company still uses box trucks and large trucks.
This time Mao Long came over. In addition to reporting on his work, he also asked about the next surrounding plans.
"According to what was said at the meeting, in the next two years we will focus on the areas around the Eastern Continent."
“Next year’s global finals, Game Jewelry will develop the Eastern Earth series.”
"The main battlefield is still our country and its surrounding countries."
Wu Qi said to Mao Long.
"I see."
"There is another problem, boss, which is the peripheral interaction at home and abroad."
"According to the previous arrangement, overseas surroundings and domestic surroundings are different."
“Nowadays, there are many overseas players on the official website looking to buy domestic peripherals.”
"And our investigation found that some domestic players also want to buy specific overseas peripherals."
"Because the directly-operated stores are out of stock, many domestic players are willing to spend a lot of money to buy them on their behalf."
Mao Long said.
The emergence of this situation is enough to illustrate the popularity of the game and the popularity of the market.
At the same time, he also felt very regretful, as he could have been ruthless.
"What do you think?" Wu Qi asked.
"After we contacted Mr. Xiong, we discussed it collectively."
“Do you think it’s possible to open an online store and put all categories of peripherals on the shelves?”
"In this way, we can meet everyone's needs and make it easier for us to control shipments."
Mao Long said.
Sorg Company has only opened an official website, and players can place orders and pre-orders on a dedicated page.
There is no dedicated online mall.
In the past, it was because there were a lot of peripherals, but the categories were small and easy to buy.
Also, the focus has shifted overseas, so these things have been ignored.
Now that problems have arisen, they can be solved entirely through online shopping malls.
For example, the Swiss team has specific peripherals.
Domestic players will definitely not be able to buy it.
Even if you purchase on behalf of others, if the quantity is scarce, you will definitely not be able to buy it.
If there is an online mall, you can search directly in the mall.
And in the future, in order to cater for the needs of players from other countries.
Special arrangements can also be made.
For example, a fixed number of rare peripherals appear.
It can be generally extended to this country.
The remaining half is sold on the online mall.
And in order to take care of players from various countries, shopping malls in various countries can be allocated.
Or conduct an auction sale.
In short, if the intermediate link is eliminated, the company will still make money.
Prevent players from spending more money.
"It's a good idea. As you said, let's try it first."
"If it runs well, it can last for a long time."
“But we must be careful to avoid certain sensitive issues.”
After Wu Qi listened, he nodded in agreement.
"These are no problems, we have a professional team to solve them."
"It's just that costs may increase in the future, and the report at the end of the year will be somewhat inferior."
Mao Long scratched his head and said.
He needs to be responsible to shareholders, especially since Sauger only paid dividends at the end of the year.
The company's capital in hand has been reduced by more than half, so it has no confidence in doing business.
"Let it go and do it without any pressure from shareholders."
"Tell me about the film and television city! How is it going there?"
Wu Qi asked what he was concerned about.
"The cinema has started construction in Central Plains Province and has now entered into the construction of the main building."
"The combination of a movie theater and a theme park requires very high architectural requirements."
"And the drawings you gave are quite difficult."
"So the construction period is slow and the progress is somewhat unsatisfactory."
Mao Long said honestly.
Originally supervising the film and television city, Wu Qi handed it over to Xu Mengying.
But Xu Mengying is busy with company management and really can't get away.
So Wu Qi changed his mind and asked Mao Long to supervise.
Unlike Xu Mengying who believes in professionals, Mao Long always goes to construction sites.
When I actually walk around and see the buildings being built bit by bit, I feel inexplicably proud.
"Is there any problem with funding?" Wu Qi asked.
"There is no problem, everything is as planned," Mao Long said. "The main issues are technology and materials, as well as construction difficulty. The rest is not a problem. It is expected to be completed early next year."
The construction funds for the first film and television city and theme park were jointly raised by Wu Qi, Zhu Jun and Pei Yan. Wu Qi's part came from Dark Horse Company and Soger Company.
Both Zhu Jun and Pei Yan invested personally and used shell companies to invest.
This kind of large-scale construction project is very welcome as it brings great benefits to the local area. What's more, if the project is led by Dark Horse Company, the local area has no reason to reject it and will even protect it.
Coupled with abundant funds and Mapu's secret supervision, there were basically no major problems. It was just a little busy due to the deadline, mainly to prepare for the Eastern Land movie next year.
"That's good!"
"Thank you for your hard work. Please pay more attention to us in the film and television city."
Wu Qi said.
"I see!"
"If nothing happens, I'll leave first!"
Mao Long stood up and said.
"good!"
"I won't keep you too long. I will take two boxes of fruit with me when I leave."
“They are all Lvge products, so you can eat with confidence!”
