105: Super large order

Oslov's budget for drone demand was around three thousand units, which is why he dared to raise the price from 100,000 to 150,000 to get a kickback from it.

Moreover, the quantity wasn't large, so it wouldn't attract too much attention.

If they really bought twenty-five thousand units, the price of 150,000 he offered would be an astonishing difference compared to that, and people would naturally have opinions about it.

Therefore, Oslov hoped that the Quartermaster could reduce the procurement quantity to below ten thousand units.

As everyone pricked up their ears waiting for what came next, the Quartermaster finally spoke.

"Twenty-five thousand units are not enough! Let's just order eighty thousand units! Buy all their output for this year!" the Quartermaster said with a determined expression.

At a time when the world is constantly in conflict, to arm oneself to the teeth, one must procure the most cost-effective products, and at the same time, not let other countries also buy these products. Only when you own it, others should not demand it! This is the highest level of military procurement capability.

With eighty thousand Xiaohang Drones, the army can possess a large number of advanced equipment that can serve them, which is extremely beneficial for improving the army's combat capabilities.

At the same time, communication between armies becomes more convenient, and losses can be minimized during combat. The total procurement cost of eighty thousand drones may be on the high side, but the energy it generates is immeasurable.

"Sir, please allow me to remind you that such large-scale procurement can only be carried out when a war is happening." Although the clerk was stunned, his rationality was still intact.

The Quartermaster is the highest decision-maker for procuring military supplies, but making such a significant decision also requires layers of approval.

This is because some people once procured carelessly for personal gain, and to put an end to such embezzlement, the Headquarters made this decision.

The Quartermaster had also supported this decision back then, but he didn't expect it to trip him up today.

But he sincerely didn't want other countries to procure Xiaohang Drones!

When Oslov heard that the procurement quantity had not only not decreased but had increased three or four times, he was so angry that he almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

What was the Quartermaster doing? Fortunately, there was the previous decision, otherwise, would he really have procured eighty thousand Xiaohang Drones?

But at this moment, Oslov was certain of one thing: procuring Xiaohang Drones was a definite matter, it was just a question of quantity.

In his many years of procurement experience, the total procurement quantity combined was not as high as the procurement quantity for Xiaohang Drones this time.

His resentment towards Kayaski deepened, and his eyes were full of rage.

No one noticed the angry man; their attention was on the procurement quantity of Xiaohang Drones.

At this moment, the Quartermaster's mind was rapidly thinking about how to persuade the Headquarters to agree to his plan.

He only regretted not having that much funding, otherwise, he would have bought all the output of Xiaohang Drones himself.

Kayaski naturally understood the Quartermaster's thoughts.

"Sir, you don't need to be too anxious. I heard that this company is just starting out, and its sales performance is very low. Or perhaps I should go to Dragon Country first to take a look? Of course, this trip will be kept confidential; other countries cannot know about it," Kayaski said.

His agent told him that the total order amount for Xiaohang Drones, including his own two hundred units, was only three hundred units, indicating that this supplier had not done any advertising.

If his agent hadn't contacted the Minister of the Xiaohang Drones Sales Department, they wouldn't have known about such a cost-effective drone at all.

After hearing Kayaski's suggestion, the Quartermaster's mood relaxed a lot: "I think it's feasible. Then I'll trouble you to make a trip to Dragon Country. Go and reassure them, tell them we will contract all their output. On my end, I will try to persuade the Headquarters and strive for the purchase quantity of eighty thousand units to be approved by the Headquarters."

"Immediately prepare the procurement application form. I will go to see the Headquarters officer right away," the Quartermaster said to the clerk beside him.

If it could be approved by the Headquarters, this would be a great deed for the army!

After Kayaski flew directly to Dragon Country, the Quartermaster argued with the officials at the Headquarters and finally persuaded them; the procurement quantity of eighty thousand units was approved. This was also thanks to Oslov's pricing of 150,000 for a PL Drone. The Quartermaster told everyone that if they bought PL Drones, they could only buy eight thousand units, but using the funds for eight thousand PL Drones to buy the more cost-effective Xiaohang Drones would be entirely beneficial and without harm. With this calculation laid out, how could a clear-headed superior disagree? Everyone also felt they had gotten a great bargain.

...

At this moment, in the office of New Hope, Liu Xiaolin was still a bit worried. Even if Great Bear Country might increase the order for five hundred drones, it was still concerning.

"How about I do another live stream with Dong Yuhui?"

In the internet era, if sales aren't going up, you have to promote. Live streaming is the best promotion method.

Live streaming is not only widely spread but also inexpensive, especially since he and Dong Yuhui are old partners and have a mature fan base.

Moreover, Southern Selection is already a popular live-streaming sales company, and its reputation is far higher than other live-streaming sales companies. Although the price of Xiaohang Drones is on the higher side among similar products, it aligns with Southern Selection's concept of promoting high-end products.

Thinking of this, he immediately found Shi Hangtian and Rong Yiwang.

"General Manager Shi, Minister Rong, I think to promote Xiaohang Drones, we still need to do it through live streaming," Liu Xiaolin said.

Shi Hangtian had heard Liu Xiaolin's live streams and was indeed attracted by his demeanor in the live broadcast room, which led to their cooperation. Therefore, he naturally had no objection: "I think live-streaming sales are feasible, I agree."

Rong Yiwang, on the other hand, was different. He had been traveling between clients for many years and didn't know much about online live streaming.

"I don't know much about internet live streaming. Can you make a plan for me to see, and we'll decide after I've read it?" Rong Yiwang said cautiously after thinking for a while.

"When Dong Yuhui and I do live streams, there are no fixed lines. We just briefly introduce the product to everyone, and then she and I just chat casually. People place orders voluntarily; we don't shout about discounts or big sales. So, we can't make a plan," Liu Xiaolin said, hearing Rong Yiwang ask for a plan and knowing that he hadn't heard his live streams with Dong Yuhui, so he explained.

"It can be done like this? When we promote outside, we have to draft a plan and carefully consider it," Rong Yiwang was very surprised.

"They attracted tens of millions of fans just by chatting freely and wildly," Shi Hangtian said with a smile. "Moreover, the fans in the live stream room even helped them urge others to place orders while they were chatting. You haven't seen it; it's the first time ever."

Rong Yiwang was dumbfounded.
