    <plugin name="change_product" type=" Mageplaza\HelloWorld\Plugin\Product " sortOrder="1" disabled="true"/>
  </type>
</config>

Step 2: Change the product price

Open folder “Mageplaza\HelloWorld\Plugin” to add new class Product.php. Please put the prefix “after” before one of two ways to change the product price:

• Edit the values reported by an original method
• Call some behaviors once an original method is called.

And the result when the original method getPrice() finishes is declared by the $result. For example, you will adjust the product price by multiply it with 2.

<?php
 
namespace Mageplaza\HelloWorld\Plugin;
 
class Product
{
    public function afterGetPrice(\Magento\Catalog\Model\Product $subject, $result)
    {
        return $result + 100;
    }
}
