After more than half an hour, Ye Yihui arrived near the address written on the note.
Ye Yihui went forward and knocked on the door.”
"Who are you?" Soon, a man with a messy hairstyle poked his head out from behind a computer monitor and asked.
"What? Hello, hello! You're the boss who wanted to buy a computer! He was indeed young and promising! You're young and promising!" The man with the messy hair had a passionate expression on his face, and his eyes were emitting a burning light. He was simply like a man who had been holed up in the mountains for three years and had not seen a woman!
Ye Yihui smiled and nodded.”
The other party immediately said," No, no, no. Don't call me boss. I'm just a small shop owner. What kind of boss am I?!" Just call me by my name! Or call me Old Lu. That's what my friends call me.”
"Then I'll call you Brother Lu!" Ye Yihui said.
"Alright, alright, alright! Just don't call me boss!" Lu Youjia nodded with a smile and said," By the way, boss, how should I address you?”
" My name is Ye Yihui," Ye Yihui said." You can call me Little Ye or Hui Zi!"”
"What? That would be so embarrassing!" Lu Youjia greeted her politely, but in the end, he still called her " Little Ye!"
"I heard from my cousin that you want to open an internet cafe, right?”Lu Youjia said.
"Then you came to the right place! Let me tell you, many computer stores get their goods from illegal underground channels. Not only are the prices high, but the quality is also very bad! These are all goods from regular manufacturers. Although the price is not low, the quality is reliable!!”Lu Youjia smiled and said," But you were introduced by Youlin, so I'll definitely give you a good price!”
As Lu Youjia spoke, he turned on a computer at the side and said,""The most famous brands in the country right now are none other than Legend, Tongfang, Fangzheng, Stone, Kehai, Boan, Hengji, Science and Technology, Ai Bi De, Guohe, and so on. In May this year, these brands were named as the 'Top Ten Famous Brands' of the first Zhongguancun Computer Festival, so the quality is quite reliable!”
As soon as he mentioned computers, Lu Youjia got into the mood and began to talk to Ye Yihui about the various accessories of computers and the advantages and disadvantages of each brand.
For example, a few years later, the top ten well-known brands of computers that he mentioned, other than Legend, Tongfang, and Fangzheng, the other seven brands had completely disappeared. A few years later, even Fangzheng had declared bankruptcy!
After saying a lot of nonsense, Lu Youjia said,"After a comprehensive comparison, I think it's better to choose Associate! The brand was big, the quality was high, and the after-sales service was also better!”
If this was 20 years later, Ye Yihui would definitely shake his head and say," I don't want you to think. I want me to think."
It was a pity that twenty years ago, Bright Learning hadn't been born yet. Even if he told her, the other party wouldn't know about this joke. It would be meaningless to tell her!
" I don't want a branded machine. It's too expensive." Ye Yihui shook his head." I just want to assemble the machine!"”
"What? " Assembly machine…" Hearing Ye Yihui reject his suggestion, Lu Youjia's face stiffened, and even his originally full mood became a little dry.
The profit margin of this assembly machine was much lower than that of the branded machines!
A branded computer with the same performance could earn at least 1,800 yuan more than an assembled computer!
If the other party bought 20 units, they could earn an extra 10,000 to 20,000 yuan!
In the end, he had lost ten to twenty thousand for nothing. His heart ached!
"Assembly machine works too!" Lu Youjia immediately adjusted his attitude and said with a smile," Fortunately, it's this year. Foreign parts can be imported. If it was last year, you wouldn't have been able to buy good parts even if you wanted to assemble them yourself.”
Before 1998, the domestic computer market was almost monopolized by Legend, and the configuration that could be bought in the diy market was pitifully small.
It was not until July that the US's iPhone forced its way into the domestic market, followed by the major western computer manufacturers. All kinds of branded computers and computer accessories flooded into the market. A few domestic computer brands took advantage of the situation and ruthlessly pushed down the domestic computer prices by a large margin.
Ye Yihui naturally understood all of this.
"Then I'll give you a configuration. Take a look.”
As he spoke, Lu Youjia picked up a pen and paper on the counter and wrote down some of the required specifications for an assembly machine. He also marked the corresponding price."Alright, take a look. If it's possible, we'll match it according to this.”
"Alright, let me see." Ye Yihui took the configuration list and glanced at it. Then, he frowned.
"What's wrong?" Lu Youjia, who was silently observing Ye Yihui's expression, immediately said," Is the price too high? If you think the price is too high, I can change the parts.”
Ye Yihui nodded and said," Yes, Brother Lu, the configuration you wrote is too good. The Internet cafe I opened is just for people to play single-player games and watch movies, or go online to read the news. There's no need for such a good configuration.”
"The Pentium350 processor, 128m of memory, MGaG200 graphics card, and Quantum Fireball 7th Gen 10.2g hard drive are all unnecessary.”
"How about this, Brother Lu? I'll give you a configuration. Give me a price!" Ye Yihui said.”
It would not be easy to earn money from an expert!
As Lu Youjia sighed, Ye Yihui wrote a new configuration list and handed it to Lu Youjia.
Not only that, except for the main board, which was still a Meijie 6ba , all the other accessories, including the optical drive, the floppy-drive, and the sound card, had been replaced!
Looking at this configuration, Lu Youjia couldn't help but say,""Little Ye, I didn't know you were an expert!”
" It's just a hobby." Ye Yihui smiled and said," I read every issue of Computer News!”
Lu Youjia was speechless.
The " Computer News " that Ye Yihui mentioned was a magazine that was popular in the late 1990s and early 21st century. It was a journal about computer products and its surrounding areas. In addition to publishing some recent news about computer products, it would also publish the market prices of various computer brands and accessories.
Anyone who liked to read computer newspapers would naturally know the prices of computers and related accessories like the back of their hand!
However, nowadays, there were only a few people who liked to read newspapers on the computer, so Lu Youjia could still make a high price difference by relying on the information gap.
For example, if a hard disk that was only priced at 1,000 yuan was sold for 2,000 yuan, it would double the profit.
However, what else could Lu Youjia use to fool Ye Yihui, who knew the market?
