Siheyuan: Fatty’s Counterattack

Let’s make electrical appliances! The first choice is for small life, high quality and low price, and the replacement speed is fast. Let me tell you something, have you heard of game consoles? "

Game console? Bangge just stole a radio today...

Smiling Tiger described it to him in a pen and stroke: "A game console, the kind that plugs in a cassette! It is equipped with two handles. You can connect this thing to the TV and you can play video games. It's so fun!"

The Famicom is a thing that, let alone a great joke, probably 99.99% of people have never seen it.

Among the remaining 0.01% of people, there are fat people.

Smiling Tiger described the beautiful blueprint to Banggeng: "You don't know how popular this thing is. Not long ago, I sent me a small one. Do you know how he did it?"

Bangge subconsciously praised: "How did you do it?"

"Hey, this kid! He used the wiring board of their TV set to the side of the road. After that, he connected it to my game console and let the children play for 5 cents. It was 15 minutes and my heart was broken. Got it!"

What, what?

I even suspected that I heard it wrong, 5 cents, 15 minutes of play? So you can't earn 2 yuan an hour?

Just play for 5 hours a day, that’s 10 yuan!

The smiling tiger seemed to have seen through the stick: "Are you shocked by this? What the heck, it's just a small fight, it won't last long."

Is this still a small matter? What a beautiful business this is...

The smiling tiger poured cold water on him: "This business looks good, but you have to think about it, how much money can a child have? Don't you have to ask adults for it? Playing with this thing will delay your studies. Just arguing with parents every day is enough. You'll suffer. Normally you can't do anything, so you can only wait until Sunday to do business. If it's windy or rainy again... you can only earn a little during winter and summer vacations every year."

Banggeng thought about it for a while and felt something was wrong: "What about normal times? I mean, why don't you put it up at night? Don't adults just play?"

The smiling tiger sneered disdainfully: "You're stupid. You only have a game console and a TV. You just want to make quick money. Of course, you have to maximize your profits. The adult likes to play, and he also has money, but where does he sit? Can you bear it if you don't move the place for two hours? The most important thing is how do you collect money? If it's too expensive, people won't play. If it's too expensive, it won't be enough to cover your electricity bill. You have to take the time, get tea and talk to the people next to you. Waiting. Isn’t there anything better than doing this?"

Bangge subconsciously wanted to say that it could be solved by placing a few more TV sets and game consoles throughout the house.

Then I realized how much money it would cost!

Those without strength can't afford it, and those with strength look down on it. Just like a fat man's family, can he like this business?

"..."

In fact, Fatty really dislikes this business.

His family started working in the computer lab in 94, when it was still the era of 386 and 486.

386 is 3 yuan an hour, 486 is 4 yuan an hour, only dos games.

Like Monopoly, Xuanyuan Sword 1, Fairy Sword 1, Legend of the Three Kingdoms, Dune, etc., even Red Alert hadn't come out yet!

At that time, their family bought a total of 6 computers through hard work, only one of which was 1, and the others were all 486.

Did you make any money? Earned. But it can be said clearly in one sentence: students cannot afford it, and adults want credit.

Let’s think about it after experiencing it, is this the case?

So they only did it for a year, and then they took advantage of the high price and sold the shop to others, making a huge profit and running away.

Later, in 97, after Saturn and PS became popular, a CD room was opened.

This time I really made money.

In the modern era of Fatty's house, the CD room had been open for almost 7 years before it was swept into the dustbin of history by the Internet cafe.

Someone said, why are you stupid enough to work in PS for 7 years? Go to an Internet cafe as soon as possible!

Everyone, have you forgotten? Didn’t Fatty go to BSO at that time...

In fact, the fat man has been taking care of the CD room. It's quite simple and one person can handle it.

But the elderly are a little bit behind in accepting new things and dare not try them easily.

By the time his family started to covet the business of other Internet cafes again, it was already too late.

At that time, taking photos in an Internet cafe was no longer something his family could afford.

"..."

Seeing that Bangge seemed to understand, Smiling Tiger said to him: "The fat man said something to me back then, which left a very deep impression on me."

Fat man? What's the matter with him here? As soon as Banggeng heard this name, he instinctively felt disgusted.

The ridiculous face tiger didn't care about his feelings, so he kept to himself and continued: "He said that no matter what business he does, the terminal ones are always the hardest and the profits are the thinnest; if you want to do it, you have to be in the supply chain and upstream! I didn’t understand what Fatty meant until now. It’s like a terminal like mine when I was a kid, earning hard-earned money. If we want to do this, we brothers must build this supply chain and be their upstream. I’ll tell you This business is all about selling imported game consoles, and I’ll tell you the truth, the profit from one unit is at least this amount!"

"500?!"

Bangge’s whole body is feeling bad. Just 500 for one set? This money is so good!

The smiling tiger laughed at him in his heart as a country bumpkin who had never seen the world.

Is not this nonsensical? Is it easy to make money from smuggling?

What's more, they not only smuggled it, but also found factories to copy it.

The core parts are imported, and other parts are made in China, especially the cassettes. How expensive are they?

A game costs several hundred, how many people can afford it?

99 in 1 is justice!

When it came to the specific business, Xiaomianhu and Banggen said: "Brothers settle accounts clearly, and doing business requires capital. I won't hide it from you. This time, I did this business alone without telling Boss Li, and You Fengxia also We have invested 5 yuan each, but it’s not enough. I wonder how much you plan to invest?”

When it comes to money, the stick wilts.

How can he have money!

Why do these words sound familiar?

Seeing that he was hesitating and unable to speak, Smiling Tiger became anxious: "Are you talking? We expect to invest around 20 yuan, divided into 4 parts, with one person accounting for 25%. How much can you contribute?"

Banggeng showed a polite yet awkward smile...

The smiling tiger was very anxious: "Then 20%?"

Without losing the awkward smile...

"What about 15%?"

Awkward smile…

"10%, that's enough!"

smile...

The Smiling Tiger was numb: "Isn't it right? You can't even get out [-]?"

Bangge simply lowered his head.

The Smiling Tiger sighed, and patted Banggian on the shoulder regretfully: "Hey, brother, you can't blame me as a brother for not taking care of you. It's really you, this, too..."

Banggeng knew that this was his last chance, so he quickly grabbed the smiling tiger's arm: "Brother Tiger, Brother Tiger, listen to me!"
