Coach is a local brand in the United States. It was founded in the 1940s and has been committed to being a high-end brand. Its products have a market all over the world.
With the reform and opening up in China, people's lives are getting better and better. After food and clothing are provided for, they begin to consider spiritual pursuits.
Chasing big names has become a hobby for many people.
Chinese people pursue famous brands and are even more fanatical about big international brands, and Wu Fei is one of them.
Wu Fei's family conditions are very favorable. Both his parents work in state-owned enterprises in Shanghai, and their combined annual income is quite large. Otherwise, he would not be able to afford his daughter's study abroad expenses.
Wu Fei has not worried about money since he was a child, focusing on his studies. His parents sent him to Stanford after graduating from high school, and he did not have to work part-time.
Women all love shopping, and Wu Fei sometimes pays attention to big brands, but she is more sensible and knows that her parents have a hard time making money, so she is usually quite frugal and has not developed the habit of spending money lavishly.
Due to the high luxury tax, the prices of domestic luxury goods are much higher than those abroad.
The way Wang Gang thought of making money was through purchasing on behalf of others!
Purchasing agents for overseas students have become popular at this time, and Wu Fei sometimes brings some luxury goods back to China to earn some living expenses.
It's just that the customs in this era are still very good, and overseas students can only do small things when buying on behalf of others, otherwise they will be easily found out and they will be taxed to death.
Wang Gang doesn't have this problem, he has room for gold!
"Wu Fei, do you know any luxury brands with a large price difference between domestic and foreign brands?" Wang Gang asked.
"You also want to engage in purchasing on behalf of others." Wu Fei knew what Wang Gang wanted to do as soon as he heard this.
"Let me tell you, foreign luxury brand bags are very popular in China, and the price difference is also huge. Some basic models sell for tens of thousands in China, but sometimes when you encounter big sales abroad, the price is less than half.
It's very cost-effective." Wu Fei said eagerly.
"Many of my classmates want me to bring bags and cosmetics back, but unfortunately I am limited in what I can bring back to China."
Wang Gang smiled and said: "I have a way to transport things back to China. If you can find a way to sell them, I will give you a share."
Wu Fei's eyes lit up, and then he looked at Wang Gang suspiciously: "Do you really have a way?"
"I have relatives working in the customs." Wang Gang told a white lie.
Wu Fei had no doubt that he was there, and said eagerly: "Coach's bags have a huge price difference in China, so I don't have to worry about selling them. There are also cosmetics from ESTēE LAUDER. They are all local American brands and the prices are not very expensive. But in China,
It’s very expensive.”
Wang Gang gradually became interested, and then he and Wu Fei did their homework together to find some products with the largest price difference from those in China, and prepared to take them back for sale.
"You record these products and find a way to contact your classmates in China to see if they want them. If they want them, sell them to them at a discount and we can make some profit from them." Wang Gang suggested.
Wu Fei's eyes lit up, and he took out a pen and notebook from his bag to write down the products he was interested in. He planned to go back and compare the domestic prices first, and then introduce the pricing to his classmates.
The two of them walked around and found several high-end brand products, and then went back to check the prices excitedly.
Not only Wu Fei, but also Wang Gang would be a little shocked if they didn't check. The prices of many domestic luxury brands are inflated, and the price difference can more than double.
Especially for the top-notch big-name products, the more expensive they are sold, the higher the price difference. Wang Gang sees huge business opportunities.
Even if Wang Gang raises the price of each item by 20%, he can still make a lot of money, which is much easier than working in a restaurant.
The most difficult part now is capital and sales.
Wu Fei contacted several of his classmates and they all expressed their willingness to buy the goods on behalf of others. However, the sales volume was always limited by just relying on those few people. Wang Gang did not earn much, not even enough money for air tickets.
"Tell your classmates and ask them to ask the people around them if they are willing to purchase on their behalf. I can give you a commission for each order." Wang Gang thought for a while and said.
Wu Fei tentatively asked several classmates, and they all said that they should think about it, maybe because they were afraid of being deceived and buying fake goods.
"We can provide formal shopping mall receipts and ensure complete packaging. We also support counter inspections, and we will compensate you three for any fake ones." Wang Gang added.
Wu Fei left a message to his classmates again, and this time he received a reply quickly. Several people expressed interest. You can try asking people around you.
Soon Wu Fei compiled a shopping list.
Wang Gang looked at it for a while and felt a little worried. He didn't have that much money on hand for shopping.
No matter how cheap luxury goods are, the price is not within the reach of ordinary people.
Wang Gang only has about 40,000 US dollars on hand, which includes living expenses provided by his parents.
"Ask your classmates again. If these people sincerely want to buy, they will pay a 30% deposit first. Your classmates don't have to pay a deposit." Wang Gang said after careful consideration.
Wu Fei nodded and started to leave messages to his classmates. He soon received replies asking how to remit money.
Wang Gang thought for a while that it was not practical for them to send money to the United States, so he gave Wu Fei an account he had in China.
He planned to engage in small-scale purchasing on behalf of others, controlling the cost to around US$40,000, to try out the prospects.
When things were almost done, Wang Gang and Wu Fei felt much more relaxed and prepared to continue shopping in the mall tomorrow and start the shopping mode.
Because Wu Fei wanted to use her computer to contact her classmates, Wang Gang ran to her room.
This was the first time Wang Gang entered Wu Fei's room. He was busy with other things and didn't notice it. Now that he was free, Wang Gang found that Wu Fei's room still smelled a little fragrant.
Wu Fei is a person who likes flowers very much. He often puts a vase of flowers in the room, so the room has the fragrance of flowers and plants, which smells good and is very comfortable.
At this time, Wu Fei also realized that a man had entered her private area, and her face turned slightly red.
To be honest, Wu Fei had some misunderstandings with Wang Gang at first and was very disgusted with him.
But ever since that morning jog, Wu Fei had developed an unidentified feeling for Wang Gang.
After getting along for several months, Wu Fei also realized that he had misunderstood Wang Gang at first, and the two of them became closer and closer.

In Wu Fei's eyes, Wang Gang is an outstanding person with good academic performance. He heard that he will receive a full scholarship in the second half of the semester.
Wang Gang is also good at cooking and found a good job right after he came to the United States.
Although the work of a chef is hard, it is a real high-paying job. Not every college graduate can get a job worth $5,000.
Not to mention that Wang Gang has a maturity that is different from that of young people. For a college student who has not left campus, this sense of maturity is very lethal.
"If you're fine, just go back to your room!" Wu Fei closed the computer, lowered his head and said to Wang Gang.
"Thank you for your hard work. I will treat you to a big meal when we complete this order." Wang Gang smiled and had no intention of teasing Wu Fei.
But as soon as he reached the door, he suddenly stopped, which made Wu Fei feel very upset.
Wang Gang turned around fiercely and rushed towards Wu Fei quickly.
Wu Fei was a little panicked, thinking that Wang Gang was going to do something to her.
At this time, she didn't know whether to resist or suffer silently.
As soon as Wang reached Wu Fei, he stopped and kept looking up at the ceiling.
Wu Fei didn't know why and looked up, but didn't see anything.
Wang Gang suddenly jumped up on the desk, raised his hand and took out something from the partition on the ceiling.
A hidden camera.
When Wu Fei saw that scene, his face turned pale.
"You shouldn't be pretending this, right?" Wang Gang put the camera in front of Wu Fei and said.
Wu Fei shook his head like a rattle.
"I don't know why this thing is here!"
When Wu Fei remembered that there was a camera in his room, facing his bed, he couldn't help but panic.
"Who installed the camera? Am I not being looked at every day?"
Wang Gang had already guessed who did such a dirty thing, but he still said: "Let's go find Susan first."
Wu Fei nodded and wrapped the clothes around him, but it still felt like he was not wearing any clothes.
The two found Susan and gave her the camera to look at.
"I've never installed this thing before, and I don't even know how to do it." Susan was a little confused when she saw the camera.
"Let's check again to see if there are cameras in other rooms."
Wang Gang's proposal was unanimously agreed by the two women.
As a result, Wang Gang found two more cameras, one in Susan's bedroom and one in her bathroom.
Three cameras were placed on the table, and both Susan and Wu Fei looked unhappy.
No one wants to be seen taking a shower in the toilet.
The camera must have been installed for a day or two.
"Do we need to call the police?" Wang Gang asked.
Just at this time, Park Seung-ki came back from school. When he walked to the living room, he saw the camera on the table, his face changed wildly, and he ran away.
