Hardy called Andy, and said: "Please remember, let me collect information about the comic company, I plan to buy a few."
Since the acquisition of Marvel, DC is naturally under consideration.
"Comic company?"
Andy was very surprised.
Talking about the business of airplanes, artillery, warships and aircraft carriers, why did I suddenly think of comics, "Boss, what did you do with the comics company?"
Hardy smiled.
"Of course it’s for better selling. I just saw these motorcycles and suddenly had an idea in my heart. I have read a few comics before. I plan to use their characters to shoot TV dramas to promote these equipment, such as this Harley motorcycle. Will become the protagonist’s mount."
"The production cost of Harley motorcycles is about US$300. We get them for US$30. When the characters in the TV series become popular, these discontinued motorcycles are no longer second-hand goods, but commemorative models. We only sell them. , It can be sold at a higher price, even if it is only sold at the original price, it is still 10 times the profit."
Andy understood what the boss meant.
Use the media to fool consumers.
Write it down quickly.
I really admire the boss's whimsy in my heart. I can think of so many with just one thought.
And it's not just motorcycles that make money, TV stations can also make money.
Advertising expenses, TV shopping share.
After taking down Hardy’s order in his notebook, Andy looked up and asked, “Boss, do you want to buy some shares in Harley Motorsports company? Let’s make a TV series, which is equivalent to making a big publicity advertisement for Harley Motors. According to normal laws, Harley Motors must be on fire, and the stock price will inevitably increase."
Hardy heard this truth.
Think of other aspects immediately.
"Well, more than just buying shares, it's better to just buy it over and turn it into our industry, so that we can maximize our profits. Otherwise, if they go back and reproduce these motorcycles, wouldn't they compete with us to compete for the market."
In the future, Harley will become the most resounding brand in the motorcycle world, and even become synonymous with motorcycles. It is definitely not a loss to acquire it.
Andy immediately wrote it down and looked back for someone to run it.
Even if the acquisition is not possible, a large share must be purchased. In order to prevent Harley Motors from continuing to produce this motorcycle, the copyright of this motorcycle can also be bought in advance, so that Harley Motors cannot produce it casually.
If you want to produce, you can pay me a reverse copyright fee.
There are so many people who play finance with ghost ideas.
......
Hardy walked to a bunch of weird vehicles again. He knew this kind of vehicle, a track-type ammunition carrier equipped by the US military, which was mainly used for transporting artillery shells in wartime. It was not big in size, only slightly larger than a jeep. .
And it's all open-air, with an extremely rudimentary cab in the front, and a car body in the back. Hardy sees that there are as many as two to three thousand vehicles here.
Hardy called Colonel Adam Beach, "How much is this, and how do you think we should sell it?"
"The original cost of this ammunition transporter was 480 U.S. dollars, and there are more than 40,000 vehicles in total. The military means it is best to sell for 35 U.S. dollars. As for how to **** Colonel Qi, he thought about it." I think it can be sold to factories and used as heavy-duty trucks in factories, such as those where heavy things need to be moved when processing iron and cast parts. "
Hardy nodded, "Your idea is right, but there are too few factories like that. Do you think 40,000 cars can be digested? Another point is that it is a crawler type, and those factories prefer to use a tire type. It won't hurt the ground."
"It's true. We went to several steel plants to sell, and only sold a few dozen units." Beech said helplessly.
Hardy smiled, "Why don't you change your mind. I think you can sell them to farmers and use them for plowing. You can put a plow on the back of this thing and you can go to the fields."
"The price of a tractor is about US$500. We can sell this for US$50, which is one-tenth of the price of the tractor. I believe it will be very attractive to those farmers."
Beech's spirits were shocked.
Yes,
It can be sold as a tractor. Although it is not as convenient as a tractor, it is cheap. Farmers who can't afford a tractor can get one. It is just a little troublesome to replace the plough, but it is cheaper.
Sometimes cheap is king.
After turning around the warehouse again, Hardy saw a lot of various materials. Some airplanes and tanks were broken and they were not even stacked. They were directly piled together and turned into a mountain of garbage. rust.
When the U.S. military gathered supplies, they did not classify them. They were mainly stored on the principle of proximity. Materials from the West Coast were piled up in the Armory near the West Coast, and materials retrieved from the East Coast were stored in the Armory near the East Coast.
However, there is a benefit when it comes to this. The same types of materials are available everywhere, so that it is convenient to transfer goods. If someone wants to buy a car, there is no need to pull things from the east coast to the west coast. Then the freight will not know how much it will cost.
Hardy motorcycles have been bought, and the military will refurbish these motorcycles and put them in the warehouse. As for when to use Hardy, as a sales company, occupying the military warehouse without spending money is also an advantage now. one.
After looking at the warehouse materials, Hardy and others drove back to Las Vegas.
When entering the Hardy Hotel, Colonel Beech and the few people he brought with him kept looking at the customers coming and going, watching the beautiful women in bikinis in the swimming pool in the distance, and when they saw the casino, their eyes showed their yearning. .
Hardy glanced at these guys, with an imperceptible smile on their faces, and then led them into the hotel.
Meeting room,
Hardy patted the thick material catalog and said: "We have too many things in our hands and we need to sell them in the same way, but I think that since it is a business, we must have a good start to promote our business."
"Mr. Hardy, what do you think?" Colonel Beech asked.
"Cars should be the best seller. I looked at the data. There are 46,000 jeeps, and more than 1,000 of them are new unopened cars. Seventy percent of the other cars can run 30%."
"The price of the Willis Jeep is US$750, and the base price given by the military is US$50. My idea is that these cars are sold at US$150 regardless of whether they are new or old." Hardy said.
The Willis Jeep was very famous in World War II and has a wide range of uses. More than 600,000 vehicles were produced in battlefield reconnaissance, patrol, liaison, first aid for the wounded, command, and artillery towing. Of course, a large part of it fell abroad.
When Peking was peacefully liberated in 1949, Taizu inspected the army at Nanyuan Airport. He was riding Willis mb.
"Ah, all for 150 dollars, then people will definitely scramble to buy those unopened new cars, and then buy those that work. As for the ones that are lying down, no one wants to ask for them." Colonel Beech said in surprise.
Hardy shook his hand.
"Of course I know that people will grab a good car. My plan is to win a lottery and sell it. That is to say, I only sell one qualification number, all cars are marked with numbers, and the lottery is on-site. Whatever is drawn is nothing."
"It's stated before the event that it's all luck to get a good car or a bad car."
"If you are lucky, you can buy an unopened Willis mb for $150 for $750. Of course, if you are unlucky, you can only buy a broken one, but we can support some of his spare parts, which is a comfort."
Colonel Beech felt as if he did it this way, and he should attract some people to bid. After all, he might win the big prize.
As for the truck.
Hardy has bought them all at the lowest price of the military.
Beech is curious as to what Hardy will do with the trucks in his hand, "Mr. Hardy, even if you set up a logistics company and a supermarket chain, I am afraid that you won't need so many trucks. What do you plan to do with the rest?"
Hardy smiled.
"I have a lot of industries, such as security companies, TV factories, toy factories, etc., as well as those who need trucks. I will give them some of them, but there will definitely be a large number of them left. It is estimated that there will be more than 20,000 vehicles. Intend to sell."
"Do you plan to draw lots for these trucks?" Colonel Beech asked.
"No, this is sold directly without drawing lots. My idea is to sell it in installments. For example, a gmc truck with a load of 2.5 tons. His normal price is three thousand US dollars. The price I bought is 300 US dollars."
"I can ask the buyer to make a down payment of US$200, open a loan account with Wells Fargo Bank, and repay the remaining money of US$50 a month in 10 installments, which means that I sold each truck for US$700."
"Who can these cars be sold to? They are sold to those who plan to run their own cars. Many people suffer from not having a car of their own. Now we take out such low-priced trucks, and we can also pay in installments, so that many hands People who have no money for the time being have a chance, do you think there will be many people buying it."
Andy and Colonel Beech nodded together.
"With a truck, you can make money by owning goods, which is equivalent to embarking on the road of starting a business. I think many people will buy it." Colonel Beech said.
Hardy had already calculated it before. If a truck sells for 700, he will sell 20,000 vehicles and get 14 million in funds after selling all of them. The point is that he didn't pay a cent for this transaction, so the money for buying trucks is eliminated. It was all earned, and more than 10,000 cars were also earned.
And this money, don't worry about giving it to the military, it can be used as the initial start-up capital for the construction of logistics companies and supermarket chains.
Hardy, this is a proper super empty glove white wolf!
The meeting ended Hardy looked at Colonel Beech, "Next I will let newspapers and TV stations carry out publicity, and I will also shoot an advertisement. Selling jeep is our first business. Red, it's about a week."
"Is Colonel Beech coming to Las Vegas for the first time?"
"It's the first time." Beech said.
"In these two days you can rest, have fun in Las Vegas, and feel the beauty of gambling." Hardy said with a smile.
Beech really thought so.
When he got out of the conference room, Colonel Beech summoned some of his buddies to plunge into the casino, gambling, watching strip dances, and swimming pools, all of which had to be there again.
