On Saturday morning, Chen Taitong was wearing a dark red Tang suit. He was standing in front of the store, smiling and greeting the customers. Behind him, the employees were also wearing new clothes and ribbons, lined up like wild geese wings. A bright red carpet was spread from the sidewalk to the store.
Today was the first day of the 50% discount promotion. The store was decorated like it was the New Year. Last night, he canceled the vacation for all the employees. He promised to double the commission for every pet sold during the 50% discount promotion. When the employees heard this, they felt that it was a good thing. They were all excited and ready to go all out today.
This was the advantage of a franchise store. If a directly-operated store wanted to do a big promotion, they had to report to the regional manager for approval. However, the daily management of the franchise store was in their hands.
Chen Taitong not only wanted to destroy the Amazing Fate Pet Shop, but he also wanted to destroy the other pet shops in the Dongcheng District. He was prepared for a temporary loss. You can't get the wolf if you don't give up. As long as he could destroy the other stores, he would be able to set the price however he wanted. He could make money even if he lost money.
Stars Pet Chain Supermarket's unified purchasing and distribution system was the source of his confidence. Comparing the purchase price, the other pet shops could not compete with him.
However, as the sun rose higher and higher, his face became more and more gloomy.
The customers hadn't arrived yet, but the troublemakers in front of the store all day long had arrived. Those people held up signs all day saying that his store was selling shoddy pets and asking him to apologize. What were they if they weren't troublemakers?
Chen Taitong decided that he would never compromise with them. He earned the money with his own ability. Why should he pay them back?
The troublemakers had obviously heard the news and knew that there was a big promotion today. They came to make trouble. The number of people was at least twice as much as usual. Many of them had even brought their families with them. There were old and young people in their families. They had brought mineral water and instant noodles with them. Some of them even brought loudspeakers — the kind of large-scale sonic weapons that were used to accompany square dancing.
The moment Chen Taitong saw the loudspeaker, his face turned pale.
"Give me the phone! I want to call the police! "he yelled.
"Boss, isn't that the police?" A smart employee pointed at a tree not far away.
Usually, there was only one police car there. Today, there were two. The police had probably heard the news and had come in advance to prevent a violent conflict.
Chen Taitong was so angry that his hands were trembling. He felt dizzy, but there was nothing he could do. He jerked his head back and said, "Go! Go to the shops nearby and borrow as many as you can. I don't believe I can't handle them! "
The employees dispersed and ran to other shops they were familiar with to borrow loudspeakers and loudspeakers. When the other shop owners and employees saw this scene, they decided to stop doing business. They took a day off to watch the show. Many people took photos and videos to post on Weibo.
At around 9: 30 pm, the first unknown customer finally came to the door.
Almost at the same time, the speaker on the other side turned on, and the grand sound waves came like a tsunami. "The Stars Pet Chain Supermarket Chain Supermarket hired the Internet Water Army on the forum to falsely advertise, deceive customers, sell inferior pets to us, sell pets with health problems, and refuse to compensate for the medical expenses! Everyone, please open your eyes wide and do not be deceived! If you want to buy a pet, you'd better go to other shops. Don't let the profiteers get what they want! "
The one holding the microphone was a middle-aged man full of energy, while the others raised their homemade wooden signs with all kinds of slogans written on them. There were also wooden signs with enlarged photos of pets and diagnosis reports from pet hospitals. It was a shocking sight.
The first customer was shocked before he even entered the door. He looked back and was about to leave. Chen Taitong didn't care about anything else. He grabbed the customer's arm, raised the loudspeaker and yelled, "Don't believe them! Those people were sent by our competitors to smear our reputation! Our reputation is good, and we never cheat anyone! Stars Pet Chain Supermarket Chain Supermarket is a big company, and we would never do something like that! "
Why was he yelling with the loudspeaker? He couldn't hear it without the loudspeaker!
The customer's face changed. He didn't even listen to Chen Taitong's explanation. He let go of Chen Taitong's arm and left without looking back. Chen Taitong also noticed that the customer was walking towards the Amazing Fate Pet Shop …
This was going to be a big show!
What day was it today? It was Saturday, and it was Saturday morning! Many students and office workers who had worked hard for a whole week finally had a chance to catch up on sleep. How could they stand these two groups of people? The number of complaints to the 110 Police Center skyrocketed. Many people didn't care who was right and who was wrong. They called the police directly from their beds to say that someone was disturbing people.
Before the 110 Police Center could report these complaints to the police on duty, the police officers in the two police cars started to take action. Half of them went to stop Chen Taitong, and the other half went to stop the people in front of them. In short, they could stay here, but they couldn't use loudspeakers or loudspeakers to disturb people. Otherwise, they would be punished.
After being punished 50 times, the two groups of people stopped temporarily.
After a while, the third police car arrived. It directly stopped on the side of the road between the two groups of people.
In fact, this result was good for Chen Taitong. At least he could go back to the silent confrontation. However, the police didn't like him, so he could only pretend that he didn't know.
Soon it was 10 o 'clock. There were more and more people on the road.
A couple walked to the entrance of the store. Chen Taitong and the staff smiled, "Welcome! Please come in! 50% off today! You will get a mysterious gift if you buy a certain amount! Bring your cute puppy and cat home! "
"Really? That was great! Let's go in and have a look! "The couple entered the store.
After a few minutes, a middle-aged woman who looked like a housewife also entered the store.
It was almost noon, and more customers had arrived. Some of them were even in groups of three or five. The popularity of the shop had never been so high!
Chen Taitong was proud. See? Nothing mattered in front of the price!
He even regretted that he didn't think of this idea earlier. Otherwise, he wouldn't need to hire the Internet Water Army, and the Amazing Fate Pet Shop wouldn't exist.
He smiled at the people on the other side of the road. What's the use of protesting? What a waste of energy! A bunch of losers!
Just as he was feeling complacent, a salesperson ran out of the shop, panting.
"Bo … Boss …"
Chen Taitong smiled, "How is it? How's the sales? Remember, if there's a shortage, call the purchasing director, Qian Fang, and ask her to send another batch of pets. "
"No, no … Boss, you should go in and have a look yourself …" The salesperson said bitterly, "The situation is getting out of hand!"
