Chapter 604: Six hundred and nine first order appears
Despite the rush, tomorrow finally arrived.
Early in the morning, Gu Chen brought over the photographic equipment from the small Baijiu company.
He took some photos of the bar’s interior.
All these photos were to be printed on promotional flyers for use tomorrow.
Besides that, he also went to the newspaper office to buy the latest Chuan City New Fashion magazine, issue number one hundred.
When he had the magazine in hand, Gu Chen saw the cover featuring the very set of photos taken by Amy.
Flipping to the first page, the first thing that met his eyes was a special commemoration for the one hundredth issue of New Fashion.
Continuing to turn the pages, there was more about that particular piece of clothing.
There were two photos by Amy affixed to the spread.
Discarding the various other content, the magazine had only twenty pages in total.
Yet Amy occupied a full five pages by herself!
Following this were two pages of close-up detail shots of the same piece of clothing.
The remaining thirteen pages were devoted to other brands and some articles about fashion.
It could be said that a full one-third of the magazine’s content was about that piece of clothing.
The degree of the publisher’s fondness for the piece was not difficult to discern.
After obtaining the magazine, Gu Chen directly headed to the Bangwei store.
Upon arrival at the store, he saw that it had already been completely emptied.
Tang Xinyi truly believed in Gu Chen; when he asked her to discard the rest of the clothes in the store, she obediently threw them all away.
Of course, the benefit of moving out all these clothes was that it would make it more convenient when Gu Chen brought over Qiwei Vegetarian.
Besides the disappearance of these clothes, the three original clothing sales staff were gone, too.
It made sense, after all, without any clothes, what was there for them to sell?
Gu Chen suddenly felt a little embarrassed, as what he was doing seemed somewhat unscrupulous.
In the store, only Tang Xinyi was sitting in a chair reading a book.
As soon as Gu Chen entered, she immediately stood up, placing her book on the table.
"This is today’s issue of Chuan City New Fashion," Gu Chen said as he handed her the magazine.
When she heard it was the magazine, she immediately reached out to take it.
The moment she saw the magazine, her gaze was instantly captivated.
"This is so beautiful!"
Although she had already seen this set of photos before, so she wouldn’t find it surprising to see them again now,
when she actually saw them, it still gave her an exhilarating feeling.
Perhaps because they were printed in the magazine, the whole perception of the photos was suddenly different.
Just then, the phone in her store suddenly rang.
She picked up the phone and heard a man’s voice on the other end.
"Hello, this is the Bangwei boutique."
"Oh yes, yes, the clothes featured in the latest magazine are from our store."
"You would like to buy a set? That’s possible, but our clothes are currently in the pre-sale phase, and each piece is handcrafted by artisans.
Ah yes, the price is indeed a bit higher, at a thousand dollars per piece, and they are limited in quantity.
Alright, I understand, thank you for your call."
After the call, the expressions on her face changed distinctly.
From the initial astonishment to the subsequent delight, and then a hint of disappointment after hanging up the phone.
"They called to say they wanted to order a piece of clothing, but they gave up after hearing the price,"
she told Gu Chen with a sense of helplessness.
She began to wonder if this pricing was really reasonable.
This piece of clothing costs a thousand dollars, which the current working class absolutely would not buy.
Those who can afford this piece of clothing are basically all the moneyed people in Chuan City.
"Is our price too high? Maybe we could try selling it for five hundred?" she asked Gu Chen.
Upon hearing this, Gu Chen responded directly, "If you saw this piece of clothing priced at a thousand, would you buy it?"
Faced with Gu Chen’s question, she paused for a moment.
Then she nodded with great determination.
"I would buy it, because I think the clothing looks really good, and I feel that a price over a thousand is still within my budget," she said to Gu Chen with conviction.
It wasn’t hard to deduce from her words that her family background was actually quite good.
From the very beginning, Gu Chen knew this about Tang Xinyi; he knew her family definitely wasn’t short on money.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t be running a clothing store that was losing money.
"Then you should look for customers according to your standards.
From now on, Bangwei’s brand will only make clothes in the four-digit range.
We have the quality that’s required, and this price point is not a shortcoming for us but rather an advantage of our brand.
When an item becomes expensive enough, no one thinks it’s the product’s problem anymore; they consider it a problem with their wallet."
After this final piece of advice, her eyes seemed to light up suddenly.
"What you said makes a lot of sense," she said.
She didn’t know why, but suddenly she felt that what Gu Chen had said was very philosophical.
While the two of them were talking, the phone rang again out of the blue.
Tang Xinyi answered the call just as before.
But in the end, she hung up disappointed.
In this state, she took over thirty calls.
It almost took an hour.
Finally, on the thirty-seventh call, Tang Xinyi got the answer she had been hoping for.
"Are you sure you want to place an order? Okay, please leave your phone number and address, as well as your height, weight and your measurements,"
At last, someone ordered the outfit.
She quickly wrote down all the customer’s information.
"Madam, we will deliver the outfit to the address you provided personally; you can pay on delivery,"
"All right, Madam, goodbye."
After hanging up the phone, Tang Xinyi was incredibly excited.
She looked at Gu Chen and said, "We’ve got a sale! We really sold one!"
She said to Gu Chen, full of excitement.
When someone was willing to spend a thousand yuan on the dress,
she understood that Gu Chen’s product positioning was not wrong.
It was just that the first thirty-six callers were not their target customers yet.
"Congratulations, there should be even more to come,"
"I think the phone won’t stop ringing today."
