In June 1906, the headquarters building of Berlin, Linden Street, German Welfare Lottery Company.
People passing by here suddenly discovered that the wall of this building was suddenly covered with black canvas. Many people don't know why this happens. Some people were very curious about this and went to ask what was going on. However, the result is that everything will be announced soon.
On June 18, when people passed by here again, they found that the black canvas had indeed disappeared. Instead, there was a huge poster. The poster is divided into two parts. The left part shows a handsome young man riding a powerful motorcycle, which gives people the impression of how handsome and unrestrained he is. On the left part, there is a blond beauty riding a small motorcycle. The motorcycle is exquisite and cute. After it is painted with red paint, few women can resist such temptation.
"God! What is that? A motorcycle? How could there be such a handsome motorcycle!" A young man stared at the poster in stunned silence. He seemed to be going crazy. The only thing he wanted to do was probably to buy such a motorcycle immediately.
"God! It's so beautiful and cute. Who knows where the motorcycle on the poster is sold? I must buy one." A young lady also exclaimed.
Many people stopped and talked about this poster. Everyone had never seen a motorcycle with this appearance before, and they were all shocked.
The same poster is not only available for Berlin. Such posters appeared in almost all major cities in Germany. German Welfare Lottery Company Lottery tickets for Daimler Company's two motorcycles were also posted at betting stations everywhere, making these two motorcycles known to all Germany people at the first time.
At the same time, Daimler Company also purchased a large space in major newspapers for publicity. The newspaper not only introduced the performance of the two motorcycles, but also introduced the sales time.
"God! It won't go on sale until a month later. How is this possible? I've been conquered and want to own it now!" A young man was very annoyed as he grabbed his hair.
"Damn manufacturers, can't they be faster? Don't they know that if you are so appetizing, you will go to hell!" A young girl cursed through gritted teeth.
Although the two motorcycles of Daimler Company are not yet on the market, they are already well known throughout Germany. Many people who are eager to buy are counting their days on their fingers, hoping that these two motorcycles will be launched as soon as possible.
Daimler Company spent a month buying or renting shops in all major cities of Germany, specifically for selling their motorcycles and future cars. At the same time, maintenance services are also provided for these motorcycles and cars. And this was the prototype of the 4S store in later generations.
On July 18, the first batch of 20,000 Daimler Company motorcycles were put into the market, with 10,000 men's models and 10,000 women's models each. The prices of the two motorcycles are 1,500 Mark and 1,000 Mark respectively. Such a price is undoubtedly very expensive based on current prices. An ordinary worker needs about two years' salary to buy one. But even so, it cannot stop their desire to buy.
"God! It's so expensive?" a young man complained.
"Idiot, such a powerful motorcycle is certainly not cheap. If you don't want to buy it, get out of here and don't block the road in front!" said a big man at the back.
"Who said I won't buy it? I'm just complaining. Everyone must want to buy such a good motorcycle. If you don't buy it now, you don't know when you will have to wait until next time." The young man muttered. He is not a fool. He knows that once the Daimler Company motorcycle is launched, it will definitely be snapped up. If you don't seize this opportunity now, it will be even harder to buy in the future.
As expected, all the 20,000 motorcycles launched this time were sold out within one day. This not only shocked the senior management of Daimler Company, but also shocked other motorcycle manufacturers. They never thought that such an expensive Daimler motorcycle would be so good. You know, when they learned the price of the Daimler motorcycle, they asserted that these two motorcycles could not be sold at all. However, reality slapped them hard.
Also shocked were those who were hesitating. After all, such an expensive price is not a small sum for many people. But just when they were hesitating, they were all sold out, which made them shocked and very regretful. Many people complain that they are not decisive enough. If they could make up their mind to buy immediately, they would not miss this opportunity. Next time I want to buy, I don't know how long I have to wait. Of course, I don't know how many people started writing to Daimler Company, asking them to invest in the next batch of motorcycles as soon as possible to satisfy everyone's desire to buy.
"Your Highness, it's really unbelievable. A total of 20,000 motorcycles were sold out in one day. When did German people's purchasing power become so powerful!" The next day, Paul? Daimler rushed to Berlin in person and reported the sales situation to Oscar. You know, the entire Daimler Company was shocked by this sales speed.
"Mr. Daimler, this is just the beginning. As those who buy motorcycles give us free advertising, our motorcycles will soon be popular throughout Germany and even Europe, It will become popular all over the world. When the time comes, orders will come to Daimler Company like snowflakes. Are you and the company ready?" Oscar said with a calm face, not seeming to be shocked by this sales data.
"Your Highness, the whole company is ready. After deducting the 20,000 motorcycles sold, we still have 20,000 motorcycles in stock. After expanding the production scale, we can sell 40,000 motorcycles every month." Paul? Daimler said. In his opinion, this is already an extremely high output. When the factory was expanding, it was Oscar who advocated upgrading to such a production scale. Otherwise, a monthly production of 20,000 vehicles may be the limit.
"Is a monthly production of 40,000 vehicles really enough? Maybe it won't even be able to meet Europe's demand." Oscar couldn't help but shook his head.
