Rebirth: I Have Nothing But Money!

Chapter 105: Gambling Agreement With Apple (3/10)

“I think Honor has too much business, and it might be counterproductive.

Cook was just worried that Su Can would take too big a step and pull his crotch.

In fact, Lao Qiao very much approves of this online distribution model.

I believe that in the near future, online shopping will definitely become everyone’s choice.

And not like now.

In fact, everyone is still very wary of online shopping.

Su Can smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry about this - I definitely wouldn't mention this to you if I wasn't completely sure."

"That's okay!"

"Since Mr. Su is so enthusiastic, then I will do the job..."

"As a first-level sales agent for all Apple products, we will all give you glory."

"But I have a condition."

"The mall must be successfully built within 1 week!"

"Offline distribution will also be fully handled by your Honor..."

"You get the goods directly from the Fujitsu factory, and they happen to have a warehouse there."

Cook looked at Su Can seriously.

In fact, he admired the young man in front of him very much.

After all, he is only 18 years old, but he has already reached such a high level and has so many wonderful ideas. The most important thing is that this young man has realized all of his wonderful ideas.

Think about what you were saying when you were eighteen years old?

Therefore, Cook has a natural affection for Su Can, which is a feeling between geniuses.

Of course, it is also possible that Cook thinks so unilaterally.

With the release of the iPhone 4, the popularity of the Apple brand in China has begun to rise - the first batch of goods produced by Fujitsu was delivered half a month later.

This time I came to Tianchao to discuss the order with Fujitsu, and secondly, to find a seller. Of course, the direct store model will continue, but the online sales store has not yet been determined!

You know, there are huge benefits in getting the rights of the general distributor. Cook directly agreed without even checking whether Su Can and Honor Company have the conditions for online sales.

It is enough to prove that in fact, Apple is not optimistic about the offline sales model. After all, the expansion speed of Apple's directly-operated stores around the world is very scary!

It would actually be a bit overwhelming for our own company to do promotions in China itself. If we leave this job to Honor, it will (accd) omit a lot of troublesome procedures. Anyway, Apple is collecting money behind the scenes, so we only need to give some to Honor. Just profit.

Bargaining power is mainly controlled by Apple.

So this contract was also written into the contract. Apple has the final decision on the pricing and discounts of all devices sold in the online mall.

As we all know, Apple’s mobile phone has the highest gross profit margin among all mobile phone manufacturers. The cost of accessories is very low. Factories around the world divide labor and cooperate. Fujitsu is responsible for assembling and producing low-end accessories, South Korea is responsible for the screen, Japan is responsible for the camera and chip manufacturing, and Apple is only responsible for the assembly and production of low-end accessories. Design and development.

Whoever masters the higher technical content will be the biggest beneficiary in this production chain. It is obvious that Apple is at the top of the beneficiary chain, followed by Japan, which manufactures chips, cameras and other core accessories, and then third. It is South Korea that produces display screens.

Finally, Fujitsu is responsible for assembling and manufacturing low-end accessories.

Of course there is no problem in helping Lao Qiao sell mobile phones. Now the production line of Xiaomai mobile phones is being established. The prototype is still being tested and production has not officially started.

Su Can's idea is to first build an online sales platform, then build its own logistics line, and use WeChat's traffic port and Apple's popularity to create a mall focusing on electronic products.

"How about this! You decide the pricing. What if we can help you sell tens of millions of devices?" Su Can said after thinking for a while.

Cook is not a fool, but he was shocked by Su Can's words. You must know that the current global smartphone shipments are only tens of millions of units.

The market is a blue ocean that has not yet been completely opened.

Especially for a developing company like China, the consumption level is limited. Let alone tens of millions of devices, even if they can sell one million units, Cook feels it is very NB.

However, the foreigner was more straightforward and said, "If you can help us sell 1,000,000 handheld devices in the Chinese market, we are willing to sell 25% of our profits to you."

"On the contrary - if you can't do it, you have to give us 75% of the profit from sales. Do you think it's feasible?" Cook looked at Su Can seriously.

Gambling agreements similar to this are common in business models. If Su Can can really sell 1,000,000 units of equipment in a quarter, then the 25% profit will be very considerable. On the contrary, if it does not sell 1,000,000 units, Su Can will not actually lose much.

His purpose of selling mobile phones for Apple is not to make money, but to borrow chickens to lay eggs. Of course it is impossible to provide technology, but the Chinese market... is different from foreign e-commerce.

The situation in each region is different, and where is the value of the Apple brand? And the purpose of building an online mall is to sell your own mobile phone brand.

"no problem!"

“But let’s play the big one.

Su Can looked at Cook with a slightly fiery gaze.

"How to play?"

Although he met Su Can for the first time, Cook could feel a kind of madness that belongs exclusively to "genius" from the eyes of the young man in front of him.

This unique temperament is somewhat similar to Gang Leader Qiao. Cook has also felt this temperament in Gang Leader Qiao, as well as Su Can’s eyes at this moment!

"It is already mid-March. The first quarter has passed, and now the second quarter is about to begin. If I can complete sales of 20 million units in the second quarter, can I adjust the profit from the sale to 30% in Q2? 2,000,000 units in the quarter, 3,000,000 units in the Q3 quarter, and 4,000,000 units in the Q4 quarter!”

"40% of the profit will be transferred in Q3 and 50% of the profit in Q4. The premise is that I complete the sales amount!" Su Can's words are very convincing. According to his statement, in the remaining three quarters from 2011 to 2012, he Will sell 90 million handheld devices for Apple!

However, as soon as these words came out.

Several foreigners present couldn’t help laughing!

Really young and frivolous.

It's just a fool's errand.

Even Zhang Dalong, He Hailong, Xiaorou and others were shocked.

Where did Mr. Su play?

After the words fell, Su Can added: "If I don't do it. According to the initial profit transfer, it will increase by 10% every quarter. By Q4, if I don't achieve the sales of 40 million units, then... I I’m willing to sell you mobile phones for free.”

Cook felt that the young man in front of him was really crazy, but he smiled and shook his head and said: "The current production capacity cannot be reached. Even if you can really sell 40 million handheld devices in a quarter! We can't It is impossible to produce so many mobile phones in such a short period of time.”
