MTL - Wall Street Legend-Chapter 395 Sale (3)

  Chapter 395 Released (3)

  Ye Dongqing wore a mask, and the bodyguards also put on casual clothes as a disguise.

The richer he is, the more he cherishes his life. Doing business will inevitably provoke some opponents, so now the number of bodyguards around him has increased to twelve. times.

The cost of security alone was nearly 16 million U.S. dollars last year. This part of the money was paid by the Danshui Investment Group. Including the tax deduction, it was actually not that high. A team of more than 40 people , who is responsible for his security work and follows him around the clock.

   This time is no exception.

  He stood on the street with people coming and going, inspecting the sales situation on the spot, while the bodyguards around him looked around, watching the movement of every pedestrian passing by the boss.

  A young man suddenly approached Ye Dongqing, and a bodyguard just wanted to stop him, but when he saw that the other party didn't move, he calmed down instantly, and just moved closer to prevent accidents.

The strange white man whispered: "Don't look, you can't buy it. There are more than a dozen people in the team who are all my friends. Give me a hundred dollars and I can let you jump in line. Give me another hundred dollars. I promise you You can get the iTouch in a while, so you don’t have to worry about the sales, if you miss the opportunity from me, you may have to wait another two weeks, I don’t think you will miss the first batch of opportunities to get it, right?”

   New York version scalpers.

   His tone was calm. After all, he neither stole nor robbed. Even if someone wanted to buy it, it was voluntary. Others spent their time queuing up and took the risk that something might fall into their hands.

  Although it is not high, it does have the risk of being smashed in the hand.

  Ye Dongqing really wanted to say that this thing was produced by his company, and he got the first batch of prototypes more than two months ago.

  Out of curiosity, Ye Dongqing asked at this moment: "I'm really interested, but I want to know something first. Many people are paying attention to Apple's products this time?"

   "Of course! Our dormitory, and the dormitory next door, have specially installed wireless devices for it. Now we just wait to get this new product. Laptops can also use wireless networks, but the transmission speed is not as fast as connecting to a network cable!"

This young Caucasian scalper waited and watched as he talked, probably looking for potential customers like Ye Dongqing. He and his friends stood here at 5:00 a.m. Eastern Time, not even daring to go to the bathroom. Quite ahead, sure to buy.

  As a major shareholder, I am naturally very happy to hear that my company's products have attracted attention from others.

  During the sales process, Ye Dongqing didn't ask too much, and continued to say, "Are you sure you can buy it, right? How many copies can each person buy?"

   “… ten parts.”

The other party's eyes were wary when they heard this question, probably because they were worried that Ye Dongqing would become a middleman like them. The internal cost is not small, and it is almost impossible to affect their "big business".

  Seeing that Ye Dongqing just nodded, he didn't know what he was thinking, the young white man was a little impatient, and asked again: "Then do you want to buy it or not? Don't waste my time!"

He took out an iTouch from his pocket and shook it in front of the other party. After pressing the button, the screen lit up, and the icon shape was exactly the same as those on the Mac-OS desktop operating system. When the young scalper saw it, his eyes almost popped out, and he blurted out: "Where is there?" Already released in advance!? Do you have relatives in the Apple retail store?"

  I have seen almost the same.

  Ye Dongqing took off his mask with a smile, saying nothing, then quickly put it on, put his hands in his pockets and followed the crowd, a group of people quickly surrounded him, trying to separate him from the surrounding crowd.

  The young scalper stood there stupidly, didn't recover for a while, his mind was full of thoughts that he had talked to Leo Ye, the third richest man in the world, and the richest man in New York.

He waited until Ye Dongqing was far away, then ran to his companions excitedly, told him that he had been here just now, and was almost beaten up because he didn't invite them to chat together, if he took a group photo or something, he would brag about his confidence later can be enough...

  **********

  When the time is up, the global simultaneous sale will start.

   Unexpectedly, within half an hour, 200,000 iTouch units were all sold out.

I didn't have much confidence before. After inspecting the two directly-operated stores, Ye Dongqing had almost guessed the result, and called Mr. Jobs to discuss the details of the next sale, such as limiting each user to only buy one Two volumes, increasing the number of releases, etc.

In the past, I made a conservative plan for the production quantity. I thought it would be good to sell 8 million units a year. Now, depending on the situation, I might be more ambitious. Jobs was also very excited, and left a sentence to urge Foxconn to hurry up and assemble the production , and then hung up Ye Dongqing's phone call.

  How should I put it, it is a relatively good result.

What makes Ye Dongqing even more happy is that from now on, the fool-like operating system will probably gradually withdraw from the stage of history. He has pushed the development of human society a small step forward. At the same time, he is also happy that he has invested in so many companies in advance. Most of the time, you can make a small fortune in the future.

  I went to bed late last night and got up early today.

   Dozed off and finished breakfast at McDonald's, then rushed back to the idle apartment in Puchuan Building to catch up on sleep, and didn't wake up again until early twelve o'clock.

When he turned on the phone, he found that there were a lot of missed calls. Recently, with the expansion of his business, his contacts with Wall Street financial institutions have also increased. When he is busy, he can receive 70 or 80 calls a day, which makes him wonder if he will die at a young age. Tired to sudden death, he has already started planning to gradually retreat to the second line, assign more tasks to the assistant team, and arrange a personal assistant or something to rescue himself from complicated affairs.

  Accidentally found the number of the dean of Harvard Business School in a bunch of phone calls. After calling back and being connected, he smiled and asked, "Hey, Mr. Smith, what can I do for you?"

   "Have you forgotten what month it is now, and when will the graduation thesis be handed in? There must be a lot of procedures, otherwise don't think that you took a shortcut, and your classmates are already preparing to leave school."

   “…have to write a paper?”

  Ye Dongqing was a little worried, because she didn't prepare in advance.

The small life is so comfortable, I often forget that I am still a student. I had a good time in school the year before last, and after making up for the regrets in my life, I felt that staying any longer was a waste of time, so I never went back. Blink of an eye for a year Much has passed.

"Of course you have to write it, but...it's hard to imagine me saying something like this, but as long as there is a good paper, I won't ask whether you wrote it yourself or someone else gave you a reference. You're useless, aren't you..."
