Chapter 274: Explosive Sales
In the following days, in addition to attending classes, working, and reading at the library, Jia Na added a regular nightly activity of going to the Mist Forest to save trees.
As time went on, Jia Na's control over the magic threads became increasingly strong.
From just a few at the beginning, to dozens after gaining the 【Precise Control】 talent.
Now, under Miss Jia Na's intense practice every night, she has been able to simultaneously control over a hundred magic threads to remove pollution, greatly improving the efficiency of Purification.
It is precisely because of this that Miss Jia Na's speed in healing trees has increased from one tree per day to two to three trees per day.
Based on this progress, Miss Jia Na should be able to successfully complete the treatment of 500 trees and complete the 【Main Quest】 before the end of this year.
Initially, Miss Jia Na thought that this task would eventually turn into a mechanical repetitive job.
However, as more and more trees were successfully treated by Miss Jia Na, she not only did not feel bored or impatient, but also gained an indescribable understanding of Life from it.
It was a change in mood from death to Life, from sorrow to joy.
As more and more trees continuously conveyed their gratitude to Miss Jia Na because of her treatment, the love for Life and the joy of being reborn constantly infected Miss Jia Na.
At the same time, it also deepened the integration between Miss Jia Na and the 【Growth Law Fragment】.
Even though the understanding progress of the 【Growth Law Fragment】 on Miss Jia Na's character panel still remained at 0%, Miss Jia Na could clearly feel that her mastery of the 【Growth Law Fragment】 had indeed become more effortless compared to the beginning. "Zhu Li, is what you said all true?"
At this time, in the lounge on the first floor of the Nightingale Opera Troupe, Miss Jia Na, who had just finished performing the "song of the ocean", was looking at the color-printed report in front of her, which was full of the smell of graphite, while removing her makeup.
"Of course, data doesn't lie."
The color-printed report in front of Miss Jia Na was a sales report of the "song of the ocean" single cassette tape in various regions.
The entire tape contained ten singles, the main single being the "Sacrifice Song" completed by Olivia during the final sacrifice.
Miss Jia Na originally thought that it would take a long time to produce this tape before it could be officially released.
However, what she didn't expect was that after a few weeks, this tape had already started to be sold comprehensively. Moreover, the sales momentum also looked quite good. "Lower District?"
Looking at the sales distribution chart on the report, what surprised Miss Jia Na was that the area with the highest sales of her tape was actually the Lower District.
"Yes, I heard Director David say that the nobles in the Lower District are very fond of that 'Sacrifice Song'."
As Zhu Li-Ann, who was born in the Lower District and had struggled at the bottom of the Lower District for a long time, she knew how much those nobles admired everything about Wizards.
Whether it was Wizard clothing or Wizard accessories, they would spend high prices to buy them.
Therefore, it was within Zhu Li-Ann's expectation that this tape would sell well in the Lower District.
However, there was one thing she didn't quite understand, and that was why the common people in the Lower District were also so keen on buying this tape.
Logically speaking, the price of such recording tapes is very high, and even the middle class with phonographs at home may not have the spare money to buy them.
"Zhu Li, do you know the difference between the basic model and the deluxe model?"
Zhu Li-Ann, who was originally removing makeup for Miss Jia Na, couldn't help but shake her head blankly when she heard the other party's sudden question.
"David and the others have good brains. They actually know how to determine target customers by reducing the configuration of the product."
Zhu Li-Ann: "?"
Hearing Miss Jia Na's words, Zhu Li-Ann was still confused.
However, when she saw the detailed product sales on the following pages of the color-printed report, Zhu Li-Ann suddenly understood Miss Jia Na's meaning.
"It turns out that the tape with the highest sales in the Lower District is the basic model -
The basic model is a single tape; while the deluxe model, in addition to the tape, also comes with a series of exquisite gifts.
The price of the basic model is less than one silver suler; while the price of the deluxe model is about one jin sule.
In the color-printed report, ninety percent of the sales contribution in the Lower District came from the basic model tape.
"Can they make a profit like this?"
Looking at the price annotation of the "basic model" in the report, Zhu Li-Ann couldn't help but ask with a hint of curiosity.
"When the sales of a product are high enough, its costs and expenses will be spread very thinly, especially for something like a tape whose production cost is not high to begin with. Based on this sales momentum, they should have already broken even -"
Listening to Miss Jia Na's explanation, Zhu Li-Ann, who had also recovered, nodded in agreement.
"Why didn't I know before that Director David and Director Kelan were so business-minded?"
Listening to Zhu Li-Ann's question, Miss Jia Na just smiled without speaking.
As two artistic creators with little business experience, David-Berg and Crane-Roland, this relatively mature sales model is unlikely to have come from their hands.
Perhaps, the entire sales plan was probably planned by a cooperating company they found.
This is not Miss Jia Na's baseless speculation. After all, there is an inconspicuous Purple Hibiscus watermark in the lower right corner of every page of this report in Miss Jia Na's hand.
From this alone, Miss Jia Na can roughly infer that the cooperating partner of David-Berg and Crane-Roland should be a company under Purple Hibiscus.
"No wonder the tape's sales channels can be spread so widely in such a short time. If it's Purple Hibiscus, then it's not surprising."
Knock, knock, knock—
Just as Miss Jia Na was about to continue looking at the report data, the knocking on the door interrupted Miss Jia Na's attention.
"It's you, Weini. Is something wrong?"
Seeing that the person who came was Weini, who usually drove Miss Jia Na's carriage, Zhu Li-Ann asked casually while removing Miss Jia Na's headdress.
"There is a letter from the Purple Hibiscus Auction House, specifically for Miss Jia Na."
"For me?"
Hearing Weini's words, Miss Jia Na also took the light purple envelope that Weini handed over.
"It's a letter from Sophina."
Looking at the silver moon pattern in the lower right corner, Miss Jia Na quickly guessed the owner of this letter.
"Dear Miss Jia Na,
Long time no see, I miss you very much.
Since our last hasty farewell, I haven't had time to meet again.
Next Saturday at seven o'clock in the evening, I would like to hold a private banquet in the Fresh Flowers Rendezvous box on the second floor of Cui Yu's String. At that time, I hope Miss Jia Na can attend -
Sophina-Silvermoon & Witch Cult"
The content of the letter was very ordinary, just a simple banquet invitation. However, when Miss Jia Na saw the signature at the end, Miss Jia Na's gaze slightly narrowed.
"Witch Cult?"
