Chapter 2090: Chapter 1799: New Fan’s Confusion (Part 3)
Then there were a few lines of large text cramd on top, so dense that you could barely make out the corn—sothing about "unripe tender corn," sothing about "sign within two hours of arrival..."
But if that’s the case, it seems like the other side is making money quite openly. Surely the tens of thousands of people in the live stream wouldn’t be unaware that a 9.9 cost including shipping can still be profitable, right?
And at the store...
He walked around the shop again and found that everything was out of stock?
The only existing link was hanging there, priced at 99999—
As an online shopping pro, the new fan knows that usually, when there’s no stock, the price is set at 9999.
But here, they’re adding an extra digit, as if they really don’t want anyone to buy it.
Huge scarlet letters almost screaming: [Don’t click! This link doesn’t ship!]
The marketing tactics these days are truly beyond comprehension!
The new fan shook his head, wandering around, still unsure whether he should fall for it this ti.
But before he could make up his mind, he instinctively refreshed the shopping page on his phone.
Only to see that in just a few minutes, the number of sold items had jumped to over 50,000.
???
Wait a minute, wasn’t the total inventory only 55,000?
Just as he had this thought, he saw that the page had already turned gray.
"..."
The new fan clicked the purchase button below again, only to find "This product is sold out."
— It’s truly sold out, completely out of stock.
He looked at the empty store; it only took a few minutes, and now there’s nothing left.
Looking back at the live stream, the number of people had suddenly jumped to over 60,000, full of jubilation and joy!
[Hahaha, I got one! After two months, I finally managed to grab one!]
[Haha, smart like ! While paying, I was banging on the headboard, waking up everyone in the dorm]
[Sa here! My buddies will have to call
their godparent once they receive the goods!]
[Seriously? At 5 a.m, I woke my parents, and before they could scold , they quickly snatched one up!]
[Why the purchase limit? There’s so much stock, shouldn’t we early birds get so perks? Why can’t I buy a hundred or so?]
[Wishful thinking from the guy above! We can’t allow anyone such extravagant behavior! Unless it’s , of course!]
[Hey, when will the host ship them? Is everyone getting Wind Speed Express next day delivery?]
[Definitely not! But whatever, it won’t spoil overnight.]
[Who says it’s not next day delivery? I say it is! I have faith in Wind Speed!]
Everyone was chatting away, and the usual lanting voices in the live stream had disappeared.
The whole stream was brimming with joy, like celebrating the new year.
Only the new fan didn’t spend any money, didn’t buy anything, staring blankly amidst the dense bullet comnts, the blue light of the screen reflecting his bewildered and dazed expression.
The new fan still couldn’t understand why.
He thought for a mont and still said: [Actually, with these 9.9 plus shipping trials, the seller is still making money.]
An old fan imdiately retorted: [You without a title, what would you know?]
[Exactly! She could have sold it for twenty-nine or thirty-nine, yet she sells it to
for 9.9, she cares about !]
[Right! Don’t you know packing and boxes are expensive too? All costs! Can’t let the host lose money, right?]
[Over 50,000 orders, imagine how much it costs just to hire people to pack them!]
Everyone chattered like brainwashed, all speaking up for the host.
It seed like they only resented the host for not making more money off them.
The new fan was bewildered, the new fan didn’t understand.
After much hesitation, the new fan quietly pressed the [Follow] button.
[Keep watching.]
He told himself: there’s sothing off with this live stream, he’d have to watch closely to see if it’s really unusual!
...
anwhile, Song Tan, who was selling at a much slower rate than usual, sighed, feeling that she was still no match for Qiaoqiao.
Seems like there’s a talent gap in this field.
So here’s the problem, with these added orders, can she still hire people to pack in ti?
Oh right, there’s Brother Xiaozhang—
Co on!
Early in the morning, hurry over to your top VIP client’s place for so work.
A groggy Brother Xiaozhang climbing out of bed:
"What? Over 50,000 orders again?! And they all need to ship today?!"
"Wait, sis, hold on! I can’t handle this alone, let
call my parents and in-laws to help!"
