Magic Industry Empire - 501
“Why are there so many kinds of magic locomotives on display at one time?”
When the reception lady answered the guests’ questions, Xu Yi was also answering various questions, but the people he faced were reporters sent by various newspapers.
It has been more than half a year since the last product launch conference of the New Flying Business Association, and today’s product launch event allowed the New Flying Business Association to give notice one week in advance, which shows that the New Flying Business Association will be notified this time. The attention paid to the product launches naturally attracted the attention of countless newspapers in Bangta City and many surrounding cities.
After a large number of reporters came to this product launch conference today, they immediately found that this time was very worthwhile.
The New Flying Chamber of Commerce unexpectedly changed the practice of only releasing a single product at the product launch conference, but actually held a huge new product exhibition in one breath, showing up to nearly ten new products to everyone.
Although the theme of this product launch conference is magic locomotives, all these nearly ten new products can be regarded as one kind of magic locomotives, but once I see so many kinds of magic locomotives, whether they are different in appearance, use and function , But still makes everyone feel extremely shocked.
Especially the magic locomotive that Xu Yi named the magic car, placed in the center of the venue, attracted everyone’s attention.
The insights of these reporters are far beyond those of ordinary people. Naturally, they can see at a glance that although the price of this magic car is high, it just satisfies the inner superiority of those nobles and merchants.
If the price is too low, I am afraid that it will not attract the attention of the nobles and merchants who came to participate in this product launch.
Moreover, this magic car is excellent in terms of appearance, performance and comfort, and can even be called a work of art, so it is natural to be popular.
However, compared to the shock that these different types of magic locomotives have brought to everyone, the question that reporters are more concerned about is why the New Flying Chamber of Commerce will launch so many new types of magic locomotives in one breath at this product launch?
This is not in line with the past practice of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, and Xu Yi’s often-speaking “You have to eat one bite at a time, and the road has to be taken step by step”.
“Why?” Xu Yi glanced across the faces of the reporters in the audience, and smiled slightly. “Because I am very much through this product launch conference to tell everyone the truth. That is, the magic locomotive has a lot of room for development, and there are many types that can be developed. It is far more than just the medium-sized freight magic locomotive and the medium-sized passenger magic locomotive launched by our Chamber of Commerce before. Both locomotives.”
The reporters in the audience nodded.
Indeed, before participating in this product launch, everyone’s knowledge of magic locomotives was only those two magic locomotives launched by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, and now we have seen so many new types of magic at this conference. Locomotives, especially after seeing the magic car, everyone suddenly discovered that the magic locomotive indeed has countless possibilities.
It can be said that because of the display of the New Flying Business Association at this product launch conference, everyone seems to have been greatly expanded their minds at once.
From the magic locomotives exhibited at this conference, everyone can even think of more types of magic locomotives.
“Yes. In the future, our Chamber of Commerce will of course launch more types and more uses of magic locomotives. The quality and performance of these existing magic locomotives will also be further improved.”
Xu Yi nodded, confirming everyone’s guess.
“For example, in this magic car, we used the latest type of alloy steel, which makes this magic car more resistant to impact and deformation. So don’t look at this magic car than the mid-size passenger transport. The magic locomotive is much smaller, but sitting in it, the safety performance is not bad at all. Don’t worry about getting fatal easily from the impact. At the very least, it’s much safer than riding a carriage.”
The reporters in the audience looked at each other, and suddenly a reporter raised his hand and asked in a loud voice: “President Xu, I heard that you have always looked down on the carriage. Is this true?”
Xu Yi glanced at him, recognizing that this reporter was a reporter from a tabloid that had recently emerged from Bangta City that specializes in lace news, and shook his head: “This statement is not accurate. To be precise, I What I look down upon is the performance of the carriage, not the carriage itself.”
The reporters in the audience were all taken aback: “Does this make any difference?”
“Of course.” Xu Yi smiled. “I look down on the performance of the carriage, because the carriage cannot satisfy me in terms of safety, comfort, and speed, the most important factor of the vehicle. Compared with the magic locomotive, the carriage is better in every aspect. Far from it. Do you think that since our New Flying Chamber of Commerce has developed a magic locomotive, why can’t I look down on the performance of the carriage?”
“Chairman Xu, can I think that you are deliberately expressing such an attitude just to promote the magic locomotive of your chamber of commerce?” the reporter asked.
Xu Yi glanced at him, couldn’t help but smile, spread his hands and asked, “Do you think…I need to sell the magic locomotive so hard?”
Seeing the gaze projected by fellow reporters around him as if seeing an idiot, the tabloid reporter suddenly understood how stupid his question was.
What Xu Yi said was right. He didn’t need to sell the magic locomotive so hard, and even needed to sell it, because after seeing the performance of the magic locomotive far beyond the carriage, now the magic locomotive of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce no matter where it is. Bangta City is still highly sought after in other cities in the Lampari Kingdom.
The magic locomotives currently produced by Xinfei Chamber of Commerce are far from meeting the demand, making Xinfei Chamber of Commerce magic locomotive production factory always the factory with the longest overtime hours in Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
Even so, it is said that the current orders for magic locomotives received by the New Flying Business Association are still countless times more than their output, and it is even said that it has been arranged for the next year.
Under such circumstances, does Xu Yi need to express his opinions on promoting sales?
You know, people who want to buy magic locomotives are now begging Xinfei Merchants Association to sell them instead of Xinfei Merchants Association actively begging others to buy them.
Seeing that the reporter stopped talking, Xu Yi continued with a smile: “Well, since you asked this question, then I will take this opportunity to talk about my views in detail.”
The reporters in the audience were suddenly shocked and looked at Xu Yi with all their attention.
“I just said that I despise the performance of the carriage, because compared to the magic locomotive, the carriage is far from the performance in all aspects, and can no longer meet the needs of people. Among them, the most important point is that it cannot meet the current huge Transportation needs.”
Xu Yi paused and pointed to the large cargo magic locomotive at the gate of the venue.
“Look, the standard load capacity of this large cargo magic locomotive is ten tons. If it is replaced by a wagon, it is even the largest large-scale cargo carried by eight horses before the Philson Carriage. The carriage has a maximum carrying capacity of no more than three tons, and no more than four meals.”
“That’s not so much business, it is totally unacceptable.” A reporter retorted.
“Really?” Xu Yi smiled slightly. “You forgot two very important issues, one is the input cost, and the other is the cost of maintaining operations.”
“Oh? President Xu, please elaborate.”
“First of all, let’s talk about the input costs. Do you know what the cost of the large freight wagon at the Philson Carriage is? Tell you, President Pompéry told me in person that the large freight wagon The carriage was specially made by him. In order to be able to withstand enough heavy goods, he chose the strongest and durable materials. As a result, the cost of the whole carriage was as high as three thousand gold coins.”
“But the price of your large freight magic locomotive costs five thousand gold coins, which is much higher than that of the large freight wagon.” Another reporter said loudly.
“Have you forgotten the eight horses?” Xu Yi asked immediately.
The reporter suddenly suffocated.
“A horse capable of dragging a full three or four tons of cargo is of course the best steed. Therefore, the purchase of these eight horses cost a full 5,000 gold coins. So in summary, this large-scale carriage The total cost of the carriage is as high as eight thousand gold coins.”
The reporters looked at each other and had nothing to say.
What Xu Yi produced was all real data, so they couldn’t refute it at all.
“After talking about the input cost, let’s talk about the expenditure to maintain operations.” Xu Yi continued. “According to the data I obtained from President Pompéry, if you want to use that large carriage, you will need to consume a minimum of twenty pieces of forage every day just to feed the eight horses. Gold coins. The cost of repairing and maintaining the large carriage itself is as high as 2,000 gold coins per year. On average, it is more than 50 gold coins per day. In summary, if you want to use this large carriage, you need to spend every day. It will consume a minimum of 70 gold coins. The farther you run, the more you will consume.”
“Then President Xu, how many gold coins does your large freight magic locomotive need to consume every day?” The reporter asked immediately.
“The normal consumption of this large freight magic locomotive also has two parts. One part is also daily maintenance. According to the current maintenance standards set by our chamber of commerce, if there is no major accident, under normal circumstances, this large freight magic locomotive will cost The maintenance cost is between 300 and 500 gold coins.”
“So few?” The reporters didn’t believe it. “Isn’t it about one gold coin per day on average?”
“This is too much.” Xu Yi shook his head. “If our Chamber of Commerce achieves new breakthroughs in the technology of magic locomotives in the future, maintenance costs will be further reduced.”
“What about the other part of the cost? The horses in the carriage have to graze. It is impossible for you, the cargo magic locomotive, to run without anything, right?” another reporter asked.
“Of course, if you want a horse to run, you have to let the horse eat the grass. Presumably you should all know that the magic locomotive is driven by the consumption of magic crystals. Then this large freight magic locomotive naturally has no difference. , Is also the consumption of magic crystals. According to our chamber of commerce internal testing standards, this large freight magic locomotive consumes an average of 13 Ai magic power per 100 kilometers at normal speed. If we use the one recently refined by our chamber of commerce For standard magic crystals, the total price is 13 gold coins.”
“That is to say, if you run a hundred kilometers with ten tons of goods, you only need to spend 13 gold coins?” The reporters in the audience looked incredible.
Xu Yi smiled slightly: “There is another very important factor, and that is speed. With a normal load of 10 tons of cargo, this large freight magic locomotive can maintain a speed of 40 kilometers per hour on a normal road. What about the carriage?”
The reporters looked at each other and smiled knowingly.
carriage? Not to mention dragging ten tons of cargo, even if it runs empty, it can only run 30 kilometers if it is dead for an hour.
Seeing the reaction of the reporters in the audience, Xu Yi spread his hands: “Now, you tell me, why can’t I look down on the carriage?”
The reporters laughed in unison.
After a while, the tabloid reporter suddenly raised his hand again.
“Chairman Xu, I have asked you several questions about magic locomotives. Now I have a personal question about you. I would like to take this opportunity to ask you. It is about your newly born daughter. Would you like to answer it?”
The other reporters frowned and looked at him, with a trace of contempt in their eyes.
This is the product launch of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce. What personal questions came to ask?
However, when they heard the question about Xu Yi’s new-born daughter, all the reporters condensed, turning their heads to look at Xu Yi, their eyes full of expectation.
“Sure enough, it’s still here.” Xu Yi showed a clear smile and nodded gently. “I am in a good mood today, so I can. Excuse me.”
“That’s good. President Xu, I heard that you directly identified your daughter as your sole heir on the day she was born. Is this true?”
