Chapter 32: A good start

Views:

Public opinion on the Internet is still fermenting. That night, many articles appeared and began to smear Marching Ant Company. The name of Hungry Marketing was directly placed on the head of Army Ant Company, and soon after, articles about the waterproof interface not being waterproof gradually appeared.

However, the article is more about the performance discussion of Butterfly Eye. The configuration is no different from the latest rice phone, and the price is a little more expensive than rice. However, whether the performance of the Army Ant system is true or not, that is the key point.

If true, the performance will undoubtedly surpass that of Rice's latest mobile phone, and the Butterfly Eye will become the most cost-effective mobile phone. It is also waterproof. In terms of appearance, it will also beat many mobile phones in an instant. It will undoubtedly be the most beautiful mobile phone this year.

While many people were waiting, at ten o'clock the next morning, the online sales of Army Ant officially started.

Zhao Min was backstage, staring at the technician's computer: "How many online visits are there to the official website now?"

"More than 10,000, and it's still rising."

"Where's the flagship store of Black Cat Mall?"

"More than 130,000, and the traffic is still increasing."

"Both sides will be released simultaneously. Remember, each account is limited to purchasing one unit."

Zhao Min didn't want scalpers to mess up their starting lineup, otherwise they would be drowned in the Internet chatter. They have already been labeled as hungry marketing. If scalpers come out to interfere again, they will be blackmailed even worse.

"OK."

"Keep an eye on it. If there is a problem with the official website, we will fix it as soon as possible."

Snapped!

As soon as Zhao Min finished speaking, the screen of the official website of a staff member next to him instantly collapsed and turned into an error message.

The technician instantly became nervous: "Mr. Zhao, our official website has just suffered a traffic attack and the server crashed."

"How long will it take to repair?"

"It's a bit troublesome. Someone is targeting us. Even if we repair it, we will still be attacked."

"Don't worry about these, fix it as quickly as possible." Mr. Zhao frowned. What she was worried about came again: "Issuing an announcement that the official website has been attacked by malicious attacks and is being repaired urgently. The official website channel has been cancelled, and the mobile phone has been delayed for fifteen minutes. Put it on the shelves and put it on the flagship store of Black Cat Mall.”

"clear."

After yesterday's press conference, Army Ant's official Weibo has more than 800,000 fans, and they are all active fans. As soon as the official Weibo account of Army Ant posted the news, the comments below instantly exploded.

"Someone is jealous."

"It is mediocre not to be envied by others."

"You're being targeted before you even start. Is something going to happen?"

"Xiyun first rises in Sunset Pavilion..."

“You deserve to be attacked and make you hungry for marketing.”

Within just ten minutes after the news was released, various news appeared on major news clients.

After all, the Army Ant Butterfly Eye, known as the most beautiful mobile phone, went on sale today. However, just as it was about to start, it was attacked, which made people feel a little unusual.

Fifteen minutes passed quickly, and all the people who originally logged in to the Army Ant official website had been transferred to the Black Cat Mall.

"It's on the shelves now." Zhao Min said calmly.

As soon as her voice fell, everyone turned their attention to the computer.

"Hackers attacked the company's computers." The person responsible for the company's network security said next to him.

For a moment, everyone became nervous.

Zhao Min's face darkened. He was attacked twice even before he started selling mobile phones. He was in a bad mood.

"Are you okay?" Zhao Min asked.

"It's okay, I've been prepared." Wang Sijia said.

"Mobile phones are on sale."

The staff's voice once again drew everyone's attention back to the computer.

The moment the mobile phone was put on the shelves, the inventory of 30,000 units was decreasing crazily. The orders in the background are also being refreshed crazily.

The speed at which orders are placed makes the people in the background jump at the sight.

The response to yesterday's press conference was far beyond their imagination. In various circles of friends, the butterfly eye mobile phone pattern has been made into an emoticon pack.

It can be said that overnight, the Butterfly Eye mobile phone became popular all over the country.

However, the speed of placing orders in front of them was too terrifying. They were mentally prepared, but they did not expect this effect.

Li Guo looked at the time and suddenly remembered that butterfly eye mobile phones were on sale today. Without thinking, I immediately grabbed the mobile phone next to me and opened my wallet.

The number of mobile phones released by Army Ant Company this time is too small. If you don't get it in advance, you may miss the first batch.

After logging into Army Ant's flagship store in Black Cat, Li Guo immediately clicked on the phone's sales page. I kept praying in my heart that it wouldn't sell out so quickly, or else I wouldn't be able to go to bed tonight.

"hurry up."

Li Guogang logged into the page, quickly selected the most expensive butterfly eye, and immediately clicked on it to pay.

The product no longer exists.

What? Li Guo was stunned for a moment and quickly returned to the mobile phone page.

Sold

"Fuck, you don't play like this, it's only been a few minutes."

Li Guo looked sad. A few minutes after the sale started, the most beautiful butterfly eyes were already gone. But if I buy other solid color models, although they are also very beautiful, my wife will definitely not like them.

Forget it, I’ll buy something else first. If my wife doesn’t like it, I’ll return it.

When Li Guo was about to buy other models, she was dumbfounded again and found that all the mobile phones had been sold.

Stupefying scenes happened in every corner of the country. Those who got it were happy, while those who didn't got it looked depressed.

In five minutes, just three hundred seconds, 30,000 mobile phones were sold, almost from the beginning to the end, the transaction volume was 300 units per second.

The Singles Day activities are not so scary. A group of people who didn't grab it were wailing wildly in their hearts.

They watched the inventory decrease all the way until it was sold out, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The whole process was like a roller coaster. In just five minutes, everyone was holding their hearts.

"Start shipping now and release the booking information." Zhao Min breathed a sigh of relief: "Julie, ask the processing factory to increase the production of mobile phones and purchase spare parts. You must pay attention to quality. I don't want major problems to occur in terms of quality. Use all the battery stocks originally ordered."

After saying that, Zhao Min walked back to the office.

Although he sold 30,000 mobile phones in five minutes, Zhao Min knew that this was just the beginning. The first level was passed safely, and the next step was the big test.

Butterfly Eye's cell phone here has just stopped working, and the news has come out. Thirty thousand mobile phones were sold in five minutes, and many people still couldn't buy them. If sales were to be relaxed, it would be even more terrifying.

Among new mobile phones, this sales speed can be described as terrifying.

The current mobile phone market is already rigid, with only a few big brands competing for it. Other brands want to become bigger, unless there are major changes, it is unlikely. Companies such as Lianxiang and Gerry tried to get involved, but they all ended in failure.

But this time, Army Ant Company has opened up a niche in the mobile phone market with its butterfly eye, making many people envious and even jealous.

However, the sales volume this time is indeed a bit low, and it seems a bit petty. The label of hunger marketing was instantly slapped on Army Ant Company.

Zhao Min put down the document in his hand and turned to look out the window.

The pre-order information has been released, and the number of pre-orders is as high as 200,000 units. For a company that has just entered the mobile phone market, if there is such a large number of reservations, it is definitely a huge good news.

While Zhao Min was thinking about how the company would develop next, the landline phone on the table rang with an unfamiliar number.
