Start by trimming cow hooves

Knowing that Suri was coming, more and more people gathered here.

There were also crazy fans who were so excited that they almost collapsed, waving and stamping their feet, crying loudly.

When it comes to star-chasing culture, it can be said that the United States has a long history. According to statistics from relevant experts, about one-third of Americans are star-chasing, and another 1% are excessively obsessed with it. Some of them have even reached the level of perversion. The degree directly affects life and mental state.

Although he has never encountered any real danger, the guards around him have not been hired in vain. They have helped drive away many stalkers, psychopaths and paparazzi, thereby reducing a lot of trouble.

In order to avoid causing chaos, Suri didn't have the chance to go shopping on Rodeo Drive after the ribbon-cutting ceremony at Yidiandian Milk Tea Shop, so she got in the car and left directly.

By clicking on the software on the tablet, you can see the sales volume and sales amount of all milk tea shops in the United States in real time. Hundreds of cups are sold every few minutes, and the average selling price is around US$3.99, which is slightly higher than the price of a cup of coffee.

Suri said to Secretary Amanda:

"This kind of statistical software is very easy to use. It can save the store staff a lot of trouble and facilitate unified control. Which store has average sales, which store's sales trend over a period of time, etc., are all clear at a glance and convenient. Modify the menu and provide it on demand during distribution.”

Secretary Amanda, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned around and told:

"Actually, this was developed by asking mainland software companies to help. Silicon Valley is about to be finished, and many job opportunities will be taken away by India and China."

"You shouldn't talk nonsense like this outside. It's true that jobs were taken away by India. Even the development of Boeing's flight safety control software was outsourced to Indian teams."

As soon as Suri finished speaking, Secretary Amanda was speechless and replied:

"This makes me dare to fly on Boeing passenger planes in the future? No wonder more and more planes are involved in accidents."

Back home again.

I did nothing until evening, during which time I watched two mainland movies.

Most of today's famous directors are from the older generation. If they don't come up with something novel, it will be difficult to attract young audiences into the cinema.

The current situation is that there are more and more young movie-watching groups, but many directors are unable to produce works they like.

"The Ex" starring Suri successfully created a box office miracle of 1.266 billion yuan after it was released in the mainland in June, becoming the world's largest box office market outside of North America.

This is enough to show that the market potential exists, it just depends on how to tap it.

Compared with mainland film and television companies, Suri's biggest advantage is that he has the opportunity to bring mainland movies to the international market and break the weird phenomenon in Hollywood that "only Americans can save the world."

And he also remembered that there were many hit movies that he hoped to remake and earn some pocket money to subsidize the huge expenses in the mainland, such as investing in the construction of the super-large "Dragon Ball" cultural tourism real estate project.

Negotiations with the copyright owner of "Dragon Ball" have begun quickly, and the transaction price is not expected to be high.

After all, it is a theme amusement park. If it is not licensed to Suri, it will be difficult to find a new buyer. It is a windfall. I believe both the comic author and the publisher will be very happy.

After dinner.

Suri personally drove the Aston Martin One77 out and went straight to a park near the Port of Los Angeles.

BuyMe's corporate headquarters is still located in Silicon Valley for the time being, but both the live broadcast base and the logistics transfer warehouse were arranged by Su Rui in this warehousing park that he invested in.

Long Beach, near Los Angeles, handles about 40% of the imported goods in the United States. Many containers are transported to a place called the "Inland Empire" as soon as they arrive at the terminal.

In order to maintain a smooth and convenient transportation rhythm for goods coming and going, a large warehouse with an area that can accommodate more than 44 New York's Central Park was specially built east of the Los Angeles metropolitan area. This giant warehouse area is called the "Inland Empire". Storage A huge selection of clothing, electronics, furniture and other merchandise.

The park that Suri bought was only a few hundred meters away, including office buildings and five giant warehouses. It was originally used to store overseas goods. Unexpectedly, it encountered the financial crisis in 2008 just after it was built, and the business collapsed. , which he pocketed at cost price.

The current BuyMe Los Angeles warehouse live broadcast base still looks particularly desolate.

The warehouse that is planned to store bulky goods for sale in the future has not yet been put to use. Most of the dozens of employees in the office building have already got off work. It looks dark, suitable for filming "The Walking Dead" and "Criminal Minds". .

The company is just starting out, but once it starts to snowball, it can grow very quickly.

At least in Shanghai, I heard that the first batch of workers hired were already overwhelmed and had to haul away dozens of containers of packages every day.

Considering cost factors, only high value-added goods can be sold in this warehouse in Los Angeles, such as electronic products, small household appliances, cosmetics, furniture, brand clothing, shoes and bags, etc. It is expected to shorten the delivery time to About a week.

If the customer purchases it in California, it may be delivered in three to five days.

Also out of cost control considerations, the plan to run a self-operated logistics system has been completely abandoned by Suri. Anyway, BuyMe makes money by focusing on cost-effectiveness. As long as the products on the platform are cheap enough, consumers can easily forgive many flaws.

At this moment.

Suri parked his supercar at the entrance of the office building. The fat white security guard originally said that parking was not allowed in this place, but when he saw it was him, he smiled and waved as a sign of goodwill without saying a word.

The entire company is Suri's own property, and there is no problem even if the car is parked on the roof.

Under the guidance of a BuyMe executive, Suri took the elevator to the second floor.

The live broadcast time is set at around 8 pm to facilitate people to have dinner at home after get off work and have a comfortable and pleasant shopping environment.

It's actually a bit late, because on the east coast, it's already around 11pm.

Now that the company's scale has not increased, there is no need to think so much for the time being. Other online shopping platforms are worried about not being able to sell their products, while BuyMe's executives are worried about insufficient supply of goods.

For example, for some small and medium-sized mainland manufacturers of towels, cotton socks, and daily necessities, the inventory in their warehouses was quickly emptied, and they had to continue to look for other sources of supply.

To this end, the CEO of BuyMe has personally gone to the Shanghai Stock Exchange in China to select the most affordable and high-quality products as possible.

When Suri walked to the temporary live broadcast studio on the pretext of visiting, he could see that in every room, there was a team working hard to sell products.

There is also a display screen outside that counts sales data in real time, including the number of orders, transaction amount, return rate, etc. The customer service team has not yet been arranged to help.

Some Internet celebrities are dancing, while others are singing hard and chatting with netizens.

Suri quickly found Olivia Carta.

I saw that she was wearing a white shirt and a plaid skirt tonight. The size was obviously not suitable, and the top felt like it was about to burst.

Olivia had already started broadcasting. She sat on a chair and softly introduced the black stockings in her hand. She also pulled the chair slightly away and wore it on the spot for netizens to see.

Although the picture is very provocative, Su Rui feels that there is a misallocation of resources. They should sell some products that men like. After all, you can guess it without looking at the data. In the live broadcast room with a total of more than 100,000 viewers, most of them must be It's a man.

Once they see this live broadcast room, it will be difficult for them to leave. (End of Chapter)
