As early as 1984, the great man came to Shencheng for the first time to inspect. In an electronics factory in Zhonghang, he watched robots and humans play chess with great interest and said that computers should start from scratch. At this point, Shencheng began to integrate the electronics industry, established the Shencheng Electronics Group, and set up the country's first trading market specializing in domestic and foreign electronic components in the Saige Industrial Building … So the legend of Huaqiangbei began.
Until now, Huaqiangbei had changed from more than 40 merchants to tens of thousands of merchants. The daily traffic exceeded 80,000 people, and the annual sales were tens of billions of yuan.
"Huaqiang Electronics Plaza is ahead."
"Do you want to go to Saige Electronics Plaza or Huaqiang Electronics Plaza?"
"Both are fine. Let's go to Huaqiang Electronics Plaza first."
At this time, Huaqiangbei was no longer composed of only Saige Electronics Trading Market.
In a few years, Huaqiangbei had built several electronic trading markets.
In addition to the oldest Saige Electronics Plaza, there was also Huaqiang Electronics Plaza, Metropolis Electronics, Jiahe Electronics … and Cyber Grandpa, which had just opened, and so on. Not only that, under the influence of Huaqiangbei's electronic market, the surrounding areas had also entered department stores, clothing, clocks, and various other fields.
It could be said that Huaqiangbei was now not only an electronic trading market, but also a national comprehensive commodity trading market. However, despite this, the core of Huaqiangbei was still the trading of electronic products.
Huanyu Technologies was not far from Huaqiangbei. It only took half an hour to drive there.
"Chen Yu, why are you looking at these small stalls?"
At first, Wu Kai thought that Chen Yu wanted to explore the electronic market in Huaqiangbei.
Unexpectedly, Chen Yu only learned a little about the price of various mobile phone components, and then became very interested in those small stalls.
Each of these small stalls was very small, and some were only one or two square meters.
Most of them were self-employed, and many of their businesses were not very presentable.
For example, the business of recycling old mobile phones. After recycling them, they refurbished the phones and then flowed into the market. Some of them were also doing smuggled goods business, such as Nokia, which had many mobile phones smuggled into the market. Strictly speaking, these mobile phones could not be traded normally, but these mobile phones had good performance, and the trading volume of the underground black market was very high.
Therefore, don't underestimate this small stall of one or two square meters. The rent alone was more than 2,000 yuan.
Yes.
Not bad.
According to the square meter, the rent of a small stall in Huaqiangbei could reach 2,000 yuan per square meter per month.
"Do you want the Nokia 7200? It's Nokia's latest mobile phone. It's selling for 2,500 RMB in the market. We'll take it for 2,000 RMB."
"How many goods do you have?"
"As many as you want."
"Is it safe?"
"Don't worry. It's very safe."
It's not.
After walking around for a while, several bosses who were involved in the illegal mobile phone business secretly came over and said.
This kind of counterfeit mobile phone did not need to be taxed, so its price could be a few hundred yuan lower than the market price.
Other than not paying taxes, there was no difference between a smuggled phone and a legitimate phone, so it sold very well.
"Don't tell me you're thinking of doing illegal business."
Seeing Chen Yu chatting with those stall owners for quite a while, Wu Kai asked in surprise.
"We can't do this business."
It was illegal to do illegal business. It was already risky to do it secretly. If they did it openly, they would be caught by the higher-ups.
"Wu Kai, what are you thinking? Why would I do such a thing?"
Chen Yu shook his head. "I'm looking for some technical experts."
"Technical experts?"
Wu Kai did not understand. "There are no technical experts here. If there are, they are in those mobile phone companies."
If they were really so skilled, why would they still be here? They would have been fancied by a lot of mobile phone companies.
However, the technical experts that Wu Kai wanted were not the same as the technical experts that Chen Yu wanted to see.
"What's the matter? Aren't there any?"
After walking around several times, Chen Yu did not find the technical experts that he wanted.
"Chen Yu, what are you looking for?"
Zhou Yifei also asked curiously.
"I'm looking for a mobile phone expert."
"What kind of expert?"
"The kind of expert who assembles mobile phones."
"Assembles mobile phones?"
Zhou Yifei shook her head and said, "You're talking about refurbished mobile phones."
"No."
Chen Yu shook his head. "It's not refurbished mobile phones. It's just buying parts to assemble a mobile phone, just like assembling a computer."
"I don't think anyone will buy a mobile phone assembled in this way."
Zhou Yifei was also confused.
Nowadays, everyone bought mobile phones based on the brand.
It could be said that a mobile phone without a brand name could not be sold at all.
Of course, there was another reason.
The quality of a mobile phone without a brand name could not be guaranteed.
Not to mention assembling a mobile phone by oneself.
If there was a problem, who would he look for?
"Not only will no one buy it, but no one will do it. The higher-ups don't allow individuals to make mobile phones."
With that said, Chen Yu understood.
It was 2003 now. Mobile phones required a mobile phone license.
Without a mobile phone license, you were not allowed to make mobile phones. At the same time, your mobile phone was not allowed to be used for formal transactions.
Although transactions could be done on the black market, the black market was not allowed to see the light of day.
If one wanted to make it big, one had to be formal.
Since it was not big and the transaction volume was not large, naturally no one would enter.
"Okay, let's go back."
Chen Yu was a little disappointed that he did not find anyone in this area.
It seemed that the mobile phone assembly industry would only explode in a few years when the higher-ups canceled mobile phone licenses.
However, just as Chen Yu was about to leave, he saw a few interesting mobile phones in a stall.
"Boss, what brand are these mobile phones?"
Chen Yu picked up a mobile phone and looked at it.
These mobile phones looked exactly the same as those branded mobile phones. However, these mobile phones did not have this brand.
"Isn't this a Nokia?"
"This should be a Motorola."
"This should be a Sony."
Chen Yu asked, "How much?"
"Err, brother, these mobile phones are not for sale."
The stall owner was a man in his late twenties. His face was full of fat and greasy.
He looked like he had been pulling all-nighters.
When he saw Chen Yu and the rest coming over, he said while eating instant noodles.
"Not for sale?"
Chen Yu asked, "Why not?"
"I assembled these for fun. Although the appearance and many functions are the same as those branded mobile phones, the components inside are completely different."
"Not bad."
Chen Yu's eyes lit up.
Wasn't this the kind of mobile phone expert he was looking for?
"Boss, I really want to buy them."
"You really want to buy them?"
The stall owner obviously did not expect Chen Yu to really want them. He hesitated for a while, but he said again, "I'll tell you again. These are not branded mobile phones. I assembled them for fun. They can be used, but the quality is average. Of course, if they are damaged, I can guarantee them for you. "
"It's okay. I like this kind of mobile phone. Also, they look the same as branded mobile phones."
"Actually, there are still differences …"
The stall owner wanted to say more, but a young man beside him patted him and whispered, "Old Liang, he obviously wants them. Why are you saying so much?"
After saying that, the young man smiled at Chen Yu and the rest. "This, this brother of mine doesn't know how to talk. These mobile phones are all for sale. Look, although they are not produced by a legitimate manufacturer, the appearance and functions are exactly the same. Also, the price is very affordable. Each one is only 800 yuan. You have to know that these mobile phones are all high-end models. The same appearance and functions are more than 2,500 yuan in the outside world. "
“800
It's really cheap. I'll take them all. "
Without bargaining, Chen Yu bought all the five assembled mobile phones of the stall owner.
"Boss, you are so straightforward. It's 4,000 yuan in total. Well, I'll give you 3,800 yuan. It's 38, 38. You and I will give them all."
"Thank you. Then we'll give them all. By the way, do you have a business card? "
"Yes, yes, yes. This is my brother, Old Liang. He will be on for you 24 hours a day."
"Thank you."
After taking the business card, Chen Yu paid 3,800 yuan and left Huaqiangbei with the five mobile phones.
