No. 0913 Satellite Receiver
"'Holy Light' has begun to explode its production capacity again."
Ilham stands at the hotel window in the Odessa port area, overlooking the busy port area terminal from a height of more than ten floors. Several container freighters are loading and unloading, and the port cranes are slowly transferring the cargo.
The freighter belongs to the European shipping company, and the crew is probably a group of Filipinos, and the cargo order may be fake. But it doesn't matter, Ilham knows very well what is being transported on this ship.
As an Iranian black market businessman, Ilham first went around in Kiev to make some contraband. However, after the "Holy Light" came, all underground transactions were made public, market demand was fully met, and transactions were extremely frequent.
Ilham used the Il 76 fleet of "Holy Light" to transport contraband, and transported a large number of civilian home appliances to Tehran, making a lot of money and getting the first pot of gold in his life.
But this kind of good days didn't last long.
Due to uneven distribution of spoils, Tehran's powerful people quickly drove Ilham away for smuggling. If he dared to go back now, he would definitely be hanged. But he was prepared for this and could not afford the market in Tehran, so he went to other places.
Thanks to the overseas settlement system that "Sheng Light Bank" spent a lot of money to build, Ilham kept his property. Black market merchants all know that "Sheng Light" is mortal enemy of the CIA, and they are very relieved to hand over the money to "Sheng Light" for safekeeping.
Ilham left Borispol and came to Odessa on the north shore of the Black Sea. "Holy Light" is operating a second commodity sales base here, radiating the entire Black Sea.
"Sheng Light" has a full-time investigation department, which will send people to collect information in the market to determine which kind of goods are competitive. As long as the goods it ships, even if you buy them blindly with your eyes closed, you will definitely make money.
As a member of the market, Ilham will give him a catalog of goods every time the freighter arrives at the port. He has the right to refute, and this right alone is very valuable.
Basically, new products will be added every time the product catalog is updated. Every black market merchant will purchase products based on his own advantages. Ilham opens the catalog and knows that another product has been explosively produced by the "Holy Light".
"Tsk tsk tsk...female hygiene products, 'Holy Light' really sells everything."
Is there a market for this product? Yes, and it is very large. Ukraine alone has demands from tens of millions of women, and Eastern European society has also made relatively progress, and the market prospects are very huge.
However, countries around the Black Sea cannot talk about any developed light industry, and many commodities need to be imported.
Contrary to many people's intuition, native chickens are actually an important producer of light industrial commodities. They mainly supply Europe and are exported to Eastern Europe and the Middle East, which are their traditional markets.
At the beginning of the year, "Sheng Light" entered the sanitary products market and began to desperately increase production lines to explode production capacity. Its factory in various provinces has doubled its production capacity almost every month to meet the needs of the domestic population of one billion.
The domestic demand is not yet met yet, but the president is going to make a local chicken and bring in a large amount of goods to grab the market. In terms of quality and price competition, the "Holy Light" has never been afraid of anyone.
After all, in the low-end industrial chain, as long as the "World Factory" has a firm foothold, it will be a scumbag.
"Sacred Light" opened a commodity exchange in Odessa, just in the port area. Ilham called and asked, but was shocked to find that the sanitary goods shipped this time were ordered.
"When did this thing become a short product? The sales are so good."
Ilham thought about the "walking furniture" wrapped in black cloth in his country, and couldn't think of what would have happened if this thing was sold? He looked through the product catalog and saw the satellite TV receiver.
"Ah, this thing is good, it should be sold."
There is a satellite TV receiver in the hotel, which is set up high in the building and looks like a big pot on the outside. With this thing, you can watch many TV programs, which are extremely cost-effective.
Ilham called the commodity exchange again, reported his membership name and asked to order a container. He was lucky, and only three thousand standard cabinets were left when he called.
The transaction must be completed within two hours, otherwise the ordered goods will be restored to the for sale again. After hanging up the phone, he hurriedly left the hotel and went to the exchange.
Since it is a new product, someone in the exchange is responsible for demonstration use. According to the instructions, the receiving "pot" antenna is aimed at a fixed area of the sky and can be watched with a TV.
This is really convenient for ordinary families.
Ilham believes that this thing is definitely easy to sell and will definitely become popular. For areas that lack broadcasting and communication infrastructure, it will become a standard configuration for TV.
After paying for the goods, Ilham excitedly went to the port area. He couldn't do business in Tehran, so he turned to native chickens. In comparison, native chickens had better economic levels, and residents had stronger consumption capacity and more secularization.
There are not many containers, and you can transport them away by hiring a small cargo ship at the port. "Sheng Light" even provides a complete set of logistics services, and everything can be arranged by paying money.
Ilham took several of his men on a boat and took two days to cross the Black Sea to reach the north of the native chicken. During this period, the native chicken coast patrolmen caught them, paid a fine of one thousand dollars, and arrived at a small port of native chicken safely.
This is not the first time similar transactions. Before getting ashore, Ilham contacted the local chicken merchants at the port on radio to inform the types and prices of goods, and prepared to stop and unload.
Since it was a small port, there was only one pier. Ilham got off the boat, and a fat guy came up to give him a face-to-face hug.
"Ilham, my friend. I heard you brought me a satellite TV receiver? Hahaha..., this thing is now a hot item."
A sample was moved from the cargo ship. The native chicken merchant looked at the packaging and nodded with satisfaction and said, "The goods of the 'Holy Light' are always made very finely. This packaging is understandable at first glance.
I have purchased a batch of French goods before, and the French is still in the printing, and even the manual is like this. The machine has to be equipped with a relay interface, which is not easy to use. Ask those French guys, they are not happy to provide after-sales service."
TVs are divided into different standards, and the signal interfaces are even more bizarre. European manufacturers rarely care about the opinions of underlying customers. Basically, users have to use whatever they sell.
That's so arrogant.
Until the 'Factory of the World' began to grab business - they didn't change it.
Ilham nodded at this and said, "The things about the 'Holy Light' are indeed considered more meticulously, and their instructions are also equipped with different texts. There are different instructions for different regions. It is more comfortable to sell their goods."
"Let's go. Go to my house and try it." The native chicken merchant waved his hand, "I will arrange someone to unload the goods, don't worry."
The small port belongs to a town, and the news that a satellite receiver arrived at the port was soon spread by word of mouth, which made everyone know. Many children in the town rushed to the merchant's homes, and even the adults were curious.
