So when the two or three passers-by heard Lin Chen's whisper, they just smiled and did not mock Lin Chen's arrogance. They just passed by sideways, but they asked in their minds how far their original bold words had come true now. …
But at this time, a middle-aged man in a fat suit who looked like a small boss looked at Lin Chen a few times before leaving.
At this time, Lin Chen didn't know that the middle-aged man who looked like a small boss was one of Huaqiangbei's big electronic suppliers, named Ke Hanliang, and was one of the first suppliers to sell STM chip components.
The first Xinke Electronics that Lin Chen asked about just now is his family's industry, so he can be regarded as one of the big guys in Huaqiangbei's supply chain.
Of course, this so-called big boss is just a big boss in the eyes of ordinary small traders. The real business boss Ke Hanliang in Huaqiangbei is just an insignificant little shrimp.
…
So in the following time, Lin Chen took advantage of his youth and physical strength to go back and forth to those mobile phone stores to inquire. In the end, it took about half a day to finally get the amount he needed, a total of 43 mobile phones.
Among them, he inquired at no less than a hundred stores, and most of them rejected him without hesitation.
After all, why should I sell it to you when I can take all the profits myself? Wouldn’t it be better to take it all myself? Unless they can't afford it, they will consider making a small fortune as a middleman.
So after visiting hundreds of stores and receiving countless looks, Lin Chen barely managed to reach the quantity of 43 units. However, getting the mobile phone did not mean he would stop.
The next more important task is to dismantle those mobile phones for inspection and repair. The ones that are difficult to repair will be removed first and put aside. The ones that are easy to repair will be replaced and adapted first. Finally, the production of these 43 mobile phones will be completed quickly.
Regarding the refurbishment of these 43 mobile phones, Lin Chen did not intend to complete it by himself, and he would not have to sleep at night if he did it alone.
So when purchasing the Nokia 5110 mobile phone, Lin Chen also deceived two apprentices during the process.
Of these two apprentices, one is from Shandong and has a cheerful personality named Huang Hua, while the other is from Guangxi and is taciturn and is named Chen Dong.
Both of them have high school diplomas, and they are both young people who have just come to China with dreams of working in Qiangbei.
For this kind of young people who have dreams and are willing to endure some hardships, Lin Chen, who is very dark, also uses brainwashing words such as "the bitterness comes first and then the sweetness", "it's always right to learn some skills", "you can become your own boss after learning the skills", etc. .
He directly accepted two apprentices in the form of a basic salary of 300 yuan plus subsequent variable bonuses.
This basic salary in Huaqiangbei in the current era is equivalent to a basic salary of 1,500 yuan when the general monthly salary in mainland China is 3,000 yuan in later generations. To a certain extent, Lin Chen is really dark-hearted.
Maybe Lin Chen's brainwashing words were useful for this, maybe they really wanted to learn some skills, or maybe they wanted to learn some mobile phone repair skills first and then become their own bosses.
Lin Chen successfully acquired two hard-working workers called apprentices at the cost of 600 yuan a month plus follow-up variable bonuses. With these two hard-working apprentices, Lin Chen can do bigger things and make more money. to even more amazing profits.
It would definitely not be possible for these two apprentices to ask them to repair mobile phones now, but there would be no problem if they were just asked to mechanically dismantle mobile phones and even accessories in order.
In this regard, Lin Chen did not just let others work without teaching them something. When Lin Chen asked them to dismantle it, he also told them what it was, why it was necessary to dismantle it, how to dismantle it, and other knowledge.
And they are indeed talents who can pass into high school, relying on their own talents and the system's 15% learning speed and 15% bonus to work concentration.
When Lin Chen taught them, they understood almost everything. They could quickly memorize the knowledge points Lin Chen said. Lin Chen was a little surprised and then applauded.
Lin Chen comes from the next generation in 2023 and works for BYD Electric Vehicle Company. He is a senior talent who is proficient in software and hardware. Lin Chen can tell a thing or two about whether it is mechanical electricity or software programming chips.
The inventory he had at this time was not something that these two apprentices could learn in a short time. Of course, they wanted to learn it, and Lin Chen would not teach them those things that were beyond the times.
…
Time passed slowly, and the next morning came in the blink of an eye.
"Then why doesn't the young man come? I've been waiting for him for an hour."
"Is it possible that the mobile phone will not be sold? Although Huang He ran away with his sister-in-law, the remaining equipment and machines should still be worth some money.
Maybe those workers sold their equipment, so they don't come now. "
“I think it’s very possible.”…
At this time, more than a dozen passers-by were waiting for Lin Chen's arrival. Some people had been waiting for more than an hour, and some had been waiting for more than ten minutes.
But no matter which one it was, they would all feel a little impatient, if they hadn't seen with their own eyes that the Chenguang mobile phone was indeed shatter-resistant, of good quality and cheap.
Then they really wouldn't spend any time waiting for Lin Chen here, but even so, they were a little impatient.
At this time, a passerby heard their words and asked curiously:
"Why did Huang He run away with his sister-in-law? What are you doing?"
Hearing the passerby's question, a potential consumer who was waiting for Lin Chen suddenly smiled and said:
"It's about the M&G mobile phone. It is said that there was a boss of M&G mobile phone called Huang He, who owed 20 million for eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling, and ran away with his sister-in-law.
The remaining workers took out the remaining mobile phones in the factory and sold them. Now the mobile phones that originally sold for 1,000 only cost 850, so we are here waiting for the mobile phones. "
The passers-by who heard this nodded slightly, and then said disdainfully:
"It turns out that although this mobile phone is cheap, I don't know how good the quality is. If the quality is too bad, I wouldn't dare to take it even if it costs 100 yuan.
Moreover, the M&G brand sounds like a small brand at first glance. If you have the money, you might as well buy Bo Island mobile phones and TLC mobile phones.
If you don’t like domestic products, you can add a few hundred to buy the cheapest Nokia or Motorola and other big foreign brands. "
At this time, when the potential consumer saw the disdainful eyes of passers-by, the potential consumer immediately frowned and said:
"I don't know about the quality of Bo Island and TLC, but I can trust the quality of this M&G mobile phone because I saw it with my own eyes and it didn't break even if it was dropped hard in front of me!"
However, no one believed his words. People passing by just shook their heads slightly and prepared to leave.
But at this moment, the dozen potential consumers suddenly became commotion, and the passers-by who were about to leave stopped curiously to see what the fuss was about.
On the other side, Lin Chen's two apprentices asked Lin Chen with some shame:
"Master, do you really want to recite it? Isn't it a bit shameful?"
"Yes, this is too shameful. I think I should just sell mobile phones honestly."
Facing the words of the two apprentices, Lin Chen immediately taught him sincerely:
"You can't reach a thousand miles without taking small steps. Nothing is easy to succeed. If you can't even let go of a little shame, how can you realize the dream of catching up with the US empire in science and technology?"
"this……"
Lin Chen's two apprentices hesitated, and then after a few seconds, Huang Hua, who had a more cheerful personality, gritted his teeth and said:
"Yes, if you can't even have a small sense of shame, how can you realize the great dream of catching up with the US empire in technology?"
Lin Chen nodded with a smile, and then slowly came to the stall where he last set up a stall, where more than a dozen consumers on the opposite side were already waiting anxiously.
