8:00 AM on the West Coast of the United States.
The seven SpongeBob SquarePants locations in downtown Los Angeles are open on time.
"Guys, let's get moving."
At this moment, in the SpongeBob SquarePants main store, the store manager James began to direct several sales staff to start the new day's replenishment in an orderly manner.
However, the replenishment of movie-related products on the shelves today is very different from usual.
The major movie-related products that originally occupied the vast majority of the market share are now dominated by products related to SpongeBob SquarePants characters such as SpongeBob SquarePants, Patrick, Squidward, Sandy the Squirrel, and Snail.
The shop assistants chatted while restocking the goods.
Of course, the content of today's chat is no longer celebrity gossip or family matters, but "SpongeBob SquarePants" which premiered last night.
"Susan, did you watch SpongeBob SquarePants, which started airing yesterday on the UPN TV network that our boss acquired?"
"Of course dear."
"Yeah?"
"Of course! My daughter loves SpongeBob SquarePants, especially the little sponge that keeps chattering at the beginning. The line 'I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready' is really funny."
"Hahaha~, I'm not married yet, but I like it too. Well, even my mom and dad love SpongeBob very much."
....
The shop assistants became more and more excited as they talked, and they even made an appointment to watch "SpongeBob SquarePants" together when they have time in the future.
"Hehe~"
Hearing the enthusiastic discussion of the audience, John on the side couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.
My old neighbour is awesome! (broken voice)
When John learned that "SpongeBob SquarePants" was on the air, he watched UPN TV as soon as possible.
Nothing to say!
He watches "SpongeBob SquarePants" firstly to support his childhood friend; secondly, it is because the peripheral chain store where he currently works is named "SpongeBob SquarePants", so they have the same name!
In the end, James was surprised to find that he, an adult in his 20s, actually loved SpongeBob very much.
I have to say that among the audience watching "SpongeBob SquarePants" yesterday, there were quite a few adults.
It is SpongeBob SquarePants after all, man!
In the original time and space, "SpongeBob SquarePants" is one of the most popular animated series among children in the history of American TV programs!
When this cute sponge cube image was first launched in 1999 in the original time and space, it was wildly loved by children and even adult audiences. It won the championship in the ratings of children's TV animation in the United States and ranked first in the American cable TV network for eight consecutive years. Nearly 60 million viewers watch it every month, and in addition to children, half of the viewers are adults.
"My boss is awesome~"
"My brother is awesome~"
In his heart, John kept cheering for Kyle.
"Hello, excuse me, are there any SpongeBob SquarePants merchandise for sale here?"
At this moment, a sudden soft voice interrupted James' thoughts.
With customers coming to his store, James has no time to care about those things.
The people who came were not one person, but two people, one big and one small.
The oldest is the older sister, about 20 years old;
The younger one is my younger brother, who is no more than 10 years old.
"Welcome to SpongeBob SquarePants Main Store."
John smiled and said, "You two, our store is called SpongeBob SquarePants. Of course, we have SpongeBob SquarePants-related peripheral products. We are restocking them right now. Look, aren't these all there?"
"Wow, it's true!"
Following the direction James pointed, little brother Ordos' eyes lit up with excitement.
"Look, sister.
There are so many SpongeBob SquarePants dolls, as well as Sandy the Squirrel, Patrick Star, and Squidward. I want them all."
My younger brother Ordos was so excited that he jumped up on the spot.
Sister squatted down, touched his head, and said with a smile: "Then sister will buy iYeahr yoit for you?"
"yeah!"
"Long live sister~!"
"I want this, and this, and much, much more..."
The little boy Ordos picked up one huge puppet after another from the shelf.
Cough cough!
Sister Connie's face changed and turned red, there were too many dolls selected by his younger brother Ordos.
She couldn't afford that much with the money she had.
"Ordos, stop it! Can you carry so many dolls? And we don't bring that much money today!" Sister Connie persuaded.
"No! I don't! I want both~!"
Well, naughty kids are naughty kids. Once they start to act naughty, who cares about these things?
Connie had no choice but to ask Johnn, "Mr. Manager, how much do these dolls cost? I only have less than $300."
"Oh? How much money do you have now?" John asked.
"I only have $282, which is enough."
Sister Connie took out all the money in her pocket and her face turned red with embarrassment.
There's not enough money!
That's right, anyone with a discerning eye could tell from the prices on the shelf that the dolls her brother Ordos had selected would cost at least $600 in total.
"Hahaha!"
Hearing this, John suddenly laughed and said excitedly, "Congratulations, ma'am. You are the 1,000th customer of SpongeBob SquarePants this month, so you will enjoy a super low shopping discount, and it's 40% off."
60% discount?!
"Mr. Manager, are you sure?!" Sister Connie immediately became excited.
John nodded heavily and said, "Yes, I am sure and certain that the money you brought today is enough to sell all the peripheral products you selected."
Immediately, both the brother and sister were extremely excited.
John packed all the dolls with a smile, and said enthusiastically, "Ma'am, I see you bought a lot. If you don't mind, we will provide delivery service within the city after we get off work. Well, of course, you have to leave your address and phone number."
Can you deliver to your door?
Sister Connie nodded immediately.
How thoughtful!
Soon, the brother and sister left the store satisfied.
John even enthusiastically saw them out the door and stayed at the door of the store, watching them leave.
"Manager, when will we have the promotion where the 1,000th customer of each month will enjoy a 40% discount?" The clerk Susan looked at him with amusement and said.
"That's right, how come we didn't know~~!"
"Yes, we have door-to-door delivery service. This is the first time I've heard of it."
Several other female shop assistants also looked at John with interest.
At this moment, John's face suddenly turned red.
60% discount?
Home delivery?
Bullshit!
Well, there are no such offers!
John told these to his siblings because he had a crush on his sister Connie. Otherwise, would he have delivered the goods to their doorstep?
"Have you laughed enough? Then get back to work!"
John added, "Oh, by the way, Susan. Please calculate the difference later, and I will make up the shortfall later."
After saying this, he could no longer bear the mocking looks of the crowd and fled the scene like flash.
....
Classics are always classics!
Although "SpongeBob SquarePants" was not broadcast on any major platform, it still attracted a large number of viewers once it was broadcast.
Throughout the day today, the thresholds of the seven SpongeBob stores were almost broken down by the endless stream of customers.
And this was just one day after "SpongeBob SquarePants" was aired.
