I Can Meet with Dead Scientists-Chapter 325 - 192 First-Day Sales and Sudden Unexpected Events (6.4K)_3

Monthly product sales stand between 800,000 and 900,000, which is three times Bayer's monthly sales.

On the first day, about fifty thousand people placed orders. The numbers for the first hour, the first ten minutes, and the first minute are, respectively:

12000/1500/130. (The ratio is referenced from 10.14089/j.cnki.cn11-3664/f.2021.09.010, and all numbers have been shortened by a hundredfold)

Looking at it now. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

The actual sales user profile didn't vary much from the model, and one could say it was extremely accurate.

Just as Tang Li mentioned before.

USTC's cockroach extermination live broadcast was unprecedented, with no data to refer to, and no one knew how high users' purchasing enthusiasm would be.

All the data was derived from Gu Qunqing's business acumen, truly a "handcrafted" model.

Being able to develop such a model under these circumstances showcases Gu Qunqing's capability.

If these numbers continue.

The first-day order count for "One Cockroach Eradicator" could be around seventy thousand, with product sales potentially exceeding a hundred thousand.

In the past eight days, the factory engaged in paid overtime as per Xu Yun and Gu Qunqing's request.

Daily production capacity reached 18,000 units, with total inventory around 136,000 units.

This inventory is sufficient to handle the initial sales of 'One Cockroach Eradicator' and even leaves a slight surplus.

The only regret is the high cost of 7.8 yuan per unit; after deducting value-added tax and logistics, the net profit might only be around eight hundred thousand.

Keep in mind.

A well-preheated product's sales volume on its launch day is far higher than subsequently daily averages, which is often called a "grand opening."

For instance, lipsticks and perfumes can often see their launch and shipping sales account for 15%-20% of the month's total.

Some e-commerce products, like phones or earphones, can even break 40%.

Therefore.

Huadun Biotech's monthly profit might be around four million, not a high figure.

Of course.

This is just an initial market, far from representing the product's final sales, let alone industry division.

Who knows how many people are choosing to wait and see, not to mention global cost compression issues.

If any of these points see a breakthrough.

The sales of 'One Cockroach Eradicator' could reach an incredibly staggering number.

All in all.

This is in line with expectations, a healthy starting figure, though not too surprising.

It's like a high school student scoring the middle range: performing decently with potential for further improvement, but currently just average.

No slack, with plenty of room for improvement in the next two years, but for now, that's about it.

Meanwhile.

Messages from familiar contacts started to appear gradually on Xu Yun's WeChat, and he began to respond to each.

For juniors like Zhou Peiyao and Ren Yongcun, he politely replied, 'Sales are good, in line with expectations, thanks for the support'.

For close friends like Qiu Sheng, he responded with an affectionate 'scram'.

As for spokespersons and veteran artists like Zhang Guangfei, Xu Yun made a formal phone call.

He communicated the precise sales figures to them.

Comparatively, Tian Liangwei and Zheng Zu were even busier than Xu Yun.

Since their connections went beyond the campus, handling them was more complex.

After hanging up, Xu Yun and others waited for another half-hour of sales data.

Everything was normal, with occasional small fluctuations, overall without any significant spikes like the stock market.

Just as Xu Yun intended to let Tian Liangwei and others go home.

Ding-ding-ding—

The internal phone on the desk suddenly rang, showing Xiaorong as the caller.

Xu Yun exchanged a glance with Gu Qunqing and quickly answered the call:

"Hello, Brother Rong?"

"Yes, it's me, Dr. Xu, two things just happened."

"What things?"

"The first thing is unsurprising: our website and redirect links were attacked, and the scale was pretty big."

"However, our team successfully blocked all of them without causing any damage to the company."

Xu Yun had been prepared for this, with little change in his tone:

"Thanks, Brother Rong. What's the second thing?"

This time Xiaorong paused for a moment before saying:

"The second thing is pitch-black… ahem, Director Wang Qingchen from USTC sent over a message."

Hearing Xiaorong's voice somewhat hesitant, Xu Yun's heart sank:

"Director Wang? Did something happen at USTC?"

Xiaorong remained silent for a few more seconds:

"Something did happen at USTC, but it's not USTC."

Xu Yun's face showed a question mark:

"?"

At the same time.

Opposite the communication device.

Xiaorong's expression was somewhat peculiar, seemingly trying hard not to laugh, patiently explained:

"Today, quite a few attacks came from abroad, but they seemed to confuse National Science University and USTC's relation, about 40% of the attacks hit National Science University..."

"National Science University's cybersecurity is backed by the Information Engineering Institute, usually not that weak."

"But the key issue was that the National Science side wasn't prepared, and many of the attackers were top-notch foreign hackers, so..."

"The USTC website is fine, but the National Science University's website got hacked."

"Incidentally, today was also National Science University's course selection day, so this thing has been gaining more traction on Weibo….."

........

Also, two years ago on December 4th, USTC's Pan Jianwei, Lu Chaoyang team successfully developed the "Nine Chapters" quantum computer, dominating the trending list.

Aside from that.

The day was relatively peaceful in history, with no major news.
