Rebirth of the American Super Boss Road

Chapter 12 What a big piece of cake

They immediately followed Li Hongfei's thinking and calculated: being able to train 24 students every month was not the point, the point was the high commission. If it was like what Daniel said, they would earn 80 US dollars for every new student they introduced to him. Even if I can only successfully introduce 4 students every month, it is still US$320, which is equivalent to half a month's salary. If I can introduce more students, I will naturally earn more.

Dry!

Of course do!

A fool would not do it!

"Of course!" Sophie nodded without hesitation: "Why not do such a good thing to make money?"

"So are we," as soon as Sophie finished her words, Nancy and Catherine, who were also extremely excited, immediately expressed their stance: "We will do it too."

"That's great," Li Hongfei laughed after hearing this: "No matter who it is, as long as they can introduce students, I welcome them."

Having said this, Li Hongfei thought for a while, took out his wallet, counted out 80 US dollars and handed it to Sophie: "This is for you."

Looking at the 80 US dollars handed to her, Sophie was stunned. She did not take it immediately, but asked doubtfully: "This is..."

Li Hongfei explained: "This is the commission you get for introducing Nancy to study. As for Catherine's commission, it will be given to you after she pays her tuition tomorrow."

Sophie then hesitantly took the money, her eyes were not only happy but also a little confused: I have already earned 80+80 US dollars in commission?So easy?

Sophie was still confused, but Catherine and Nancy's eyes were already shocked: isn't it?Sophie the little bitch has already made $80 off each of us?

If just now, although Nancy and Catherine acted, they still had some doubts about Li Hongfei's promise, then at this moment, seeing the 80 US dollars in Sophie's hand, the two girls no longer had any doubts in their hearts, and their eyes were full of doubts. There is even a fire burning: this money is really good!Really are……

Why didn’t you find it so easy to make money before?

Looking at the three girls who were stimulated by money, Li Hongfei kept up his efforts and added fire to their hearts: "Actually, besides introducing students to come and get commissions, you have other ways to make money."

Are there other ways to make money?

At this time, all three girls were not calm: apart from the students' tuition fees, how could they make money in other ways?Catherine said loudly: "Daniel, just tell me, what do you need to do to make money?"

She couldn't wait any longer.

Li Hongfei said: "For example, Sophie and Nancy, you two have mastered basic computer operations now, right?"In the future, when I have more students, you can also come and work part-time as my teaching assistants. I will pay you a salary of US$10 per hour. What do you think? "

Sophie and Nancy immediately made a small calculation in their minds: the hourly wage of 10 US dollars would be more than double their current hourly wage. Assuming that they taught two classes in one night, that would be 20 US dollars in extra money that day, even if I only work part-time for 8 days a month, which is an additional income of 160 US dollars. If you add in the commission from introducing students, it is not easy to earn an extra [-] to [-] US dollars every month.

Money is the best motivation. After calculating the huge benefits, the three girls happily agreed.

Li Hongfei was also very happy: Look, isn’t there a teacher?

------------

It was the RadioShack electrical appliance chain store near Smith Accounting Firm where Li Hongfei worked. When he saw Li Hongfei walking in, Frank, who had received Li Hongfei last time, his eyes lit up and he immediately came forward and greeted him warmly: "Mr. Li, Hello and welcome to RadioShack."

Li Hongfei was a little surprised: "Frank, do you still remember my name?"

"Of course," Frank nodded with a smile. He did not explain that Li Hongfei's name was really easy to remember, and his Chinese-American face also impressed him. Instead, he asked politely: "What do you plan to watch today?"

"I remember you told me last time that you had a TRS-80 computer here?"

"Of course!"

Hearing Li Hongfei ask about the TRS-80, Frank's eyes suddenly lit up and he quickly said: "All TRS-80 computers in the United States are sold in our RadioShack chain stores...Mr. Li, you know that we, RadioShack, have More than 3000 chain stores... In addition, it must be said that your choice of TRS-80 is a very wise choice. TRS-80 is the best personal computer now. It uses a Zilog8080 high-performance core that is compatible with Intel's 80 processor. The processor, coupled with the standard 4Kb memory, is very powerful. At the same time, this computer also has a built-in ROMbasic chip that can run basic programs..."

"I know all this," Li Hongfei raised his hand to interrupt Frank, and said, "I have read the introduction of the TRS-80 in Popular Electronics, and I know the configuration of this computer very well. Since you have it in stock here, then It could not be better."

Frank was not surprised at all by Li Hongfei's words. These days, those who can buy personal computer products are those who have a good understanding of personal computers. So after hearing Li Hongfei's words, he immediately nodded happily and said: " No problem, Mr. Li, now that you have learned about our TRS-80, it’s easy, are you going to buy the $399 version without a monitor, or the $599 version with a monitor?”

The US$399 version is a host computer with an integrated keyboard. If you spend an additional US$200, you can get a monitor and a tape drive - seeing this, readers will be confused, a Wangan company The wang2200F computer costs 4500 US dollars, an IBM 5100S even costs nearly 8000 US dollars, and a "fully equipped version" TRS-80 only costs 599 US dollars?

Do you want to be so exaggerated? !

It is indeed an exaggeration, but the reality is how bizarre. TRS-80 is very cheap, and the price of appleII and PET80, known as the "Three Musketeers of Personal Computers" together with TRS-2001, is only a little over 1000 US dollars, which is more expensive than wang2200 series and IBM5100. Too many cheap ones.

To be honest, the "Three Musketeers of Personal Computers" were able to quickly open up the market in a very short period of time, and price was the most important factor - of course, the $80 price of the TRS-599 just looks cheap, but after removing the inflation factor , which is roughly equivalent to US$2023 in 3300, which is about 23000 yuan converted into RMB. If this is the calculation, it cannot be considered cheap by any means.

The cheap price is also the reason why Li Hongfei chose to buy the TRS-80 instead of the second-hand wang2200. The wang2200 is really too expensive, even the second-hand one is expensive!

Anyway, it’s all about practicing typing and simple computer operations. The TRS-80 can do the job, so why use the expensive wang2200.

"I want the $599 version," Li Hongfei responded, and then asked Frank: "Frank, do you have software suitable for TRS-80?"
