219: Many people order custom diving equipment.
After returning to the Explorer II, everyone knew there would be no more diving activities, so they all changed back into their casual clothes they wore upon arrival.
"I have some good news for everyone. The diving equipment customized for you on this trip will not be collected after the trip ends. It is a souvenir for everyone. I hope you can use this diving equipment when you have the opportunity to travel to the seaside in the future, and at the same time recall this wonderful and magical day spent with us." Liu Xiaolin announced this news after everyone had changed and returned to their seats.
Immediately, everyone was extremely happy.
"Oh, that's great. I was originally planning to buy a set of this diving equipment after I got back, and now I can take it back for free. That's wonderful."
This gentleman forgot the idiom about the wool coming from the sheep's back.
"That's what I was thinking too. This set of diving equipment is great, much more comfortable than the diving suit I bought before."
"I also want to buy a set for my son. I wonder which manufacturer produced this?"
Hearing everyone's discussions, Liu Xiaolin resumed his sales work: "The diving equipment you are wearing today was also developed by a subsidiary of our Wanderer Aerospace, specifically designed for deep-sea diving. Currently, less than a hundred sets have been produced. Fifty sets were given out today, and another fifty sets are reserved for the next batch of underwater tour group members."
"Ah? Then we can't buy it? It's only given if we join the tour group?"
"That's not so good. My spouse isn't very comfortable with deep-sea diving, but shallow water areas are fine."
"Exactly. Since you've developed and mass-produced it, you should sell it to the public."
Seeing that the atmosphere had been set, Liu Xiaolin finally gave everyone a reason to change their minds: "Please don't worry, I understand your eagerness to like and purchase our products. Therefore, we will accept custom orders for diving equipment."
"Custom orders are available? That's wonderful! Can I place an order with you now?"
"Yes, and I'll customize a set for my younger brother too."
"Please don't worry, our custom order service requires communication with the Sales Department. You can contact the staff members of our Sales Department who assisted you with signing up for the tour group. I do not accept orders here." Liu Xiaolin thought to himself that he had already done a good job with the promotion and shouldn't take away the Sales Department's work.
"How much does this set of diving equipment cost approximately?"
"Yes, I need to know the price to decide how many sets to customize."
"It shouldn't be cheap, they are high-tech products."
"I know everyone is concerned about the price of our diving equipment. Based on our cost budget, the minimum price offered is 350,000 per set. You also know that custom orders significantly increase cost consumption in terms of human and material resources, so this pricing is the lowest." Liu Xiaolin had already discussed the pricing issue with the finance department.
"350,000? Not expensive, I thought it would be at least 500,000."
"Yes, I also thought it would be at least 500,000."
"It seems I need to order a few more sets."
"Why are you ordering so many?"
"We have a large family, and we also have a seaside villa where we stay for a period every summer. With this set of diving equipment, we can go diving in the sea anytime and even catch some sea cucumbers and lobsters to take back for a feast."
"Oh, that's a great idea. I should also consider buying a seaside villa."
Amidst everyone's discussions, the Explorer II quickly returned to the surface of the sea and docked at the dedicated pier.
The deep-sea tour thus ended in a pleasant atmosphere.
After returning to the company, Liu Xiaolin first went to the Sales Department and told the Minister about the many people who wanted to customize diving equipment today, asking him to start accepting phone orders tomorrow.
"Then do we need to advertise? Promote it widely to the public?" the Minister asked.
"No need. The price of our diving equipment is higher than what's on the market, so we don't need advertising. Word-of-mouth reputation is enough." Liu Xiaolin was very shrewd. He wasn't stingy when advertising was necessary, but he wouldn't spend a dime when it was useless.
"Okay, I will inform the Sales Department operators to start accepting phone orders tomorrow." The Minister also admired Liu Xiaolin's mind.
"By the way, how is the work progressing for the second Xingji Travel Group? We can't let our wanderer one just stay at home and not go for a Space walk." Liu Xiaolin asked with concern.
"The announcement for the second tour group departure was sent out on Monday, and as of today, we have received over a dozen registration calls." The Minister said, "Don't worry, I will inform you once a group is formed."
"Okay, you lead the team this time. I won't go along." Liu Xiaolin had been to Space once, so he gave the opportunity to go to Space to others.
When the Minister heard this news, he was overjoyed: "Really? Then I need to start exercising recently so I can take good care of every Space tourist in Space."
"Okay, very good, keep up the hard work! I'm going to find Engineer Niu. You all keep busy." After Liu Xiaolin finished speaking, he turned and headed towards the R&D Department.
Niu De saw that the Explorer II had been back for a while, and the data analysis had begun, but Liu Xiaolin hadn't shown up, which was very strange.
"This guy, the first thing he does every time he comes back is come find me. What did he go do today? Is something wrong with his health?" Niu De muttered softly.
"Engineer Niu, I'm back." At this moment, Liu Xiaolin strode in.
"Where did you go? Is your health okay?" Niu De breathed a sigh of relief when he finally saw Liu Xiaolin arrive.
"I'm fine, I'm doing well. I went to the Sales Department." Liu Xiaolin said with a smile. Then he told Niu De about the custom diving equipment.
"You kid, you really know how to seize every opportunity to make money." Niu De laughed.
"Of course I have to make money. Otherwise, where would we find funding for our R&D Department?" Liu Xiaolin said with a smile, "Anyway, those rich people have money and leisure. We accompany them and provide service for them, and the money we earn is used for scientific and technological research and development. Isn't this a win-win situation?"
"Alright, alright, you have a point." Niu De also smiled, "Today's data analysis should also be fast because we are using the big data comparative analysis method, and abnormal data will be quickly filtered out."
"I'm confident when you handle things." Liu Xiaolin said with a smile, "We conduct data analysis for every trip to ensure the safety of the next trip. I know you are very focused on this."
"Alright, I won't talk to you anymore. You go back and rest, I'll get back to work." Seeing that Liu Xiaolin was fine, Niu De went back to work with peace of mind.
