The offline sales were extremely popular.
After midnight, the online sales channel was opened, and people's enthusiasm for buying was released to the extreme.
Less than two minutes after the 900,000 helmets were posted on the official website, the website's server almost crashed due to the huge number of visitors. In just a few breaths, all 900,000 helmets had been snatched up.
Project manager Li Guangwen stared at the sales data on the screen. His mouth was wide open, and he didn't speak for a long time.
However, this didn't kill him.
The employee sitting in front of him spat out all the words he wanted to say.
"This is insane … It's only been two minutes, and all 900,000 helmets have been sold."
"Looking at the data from Star Sky Technology, the number of registered users of the Phantom system has exceeded 300,000."
Li Guangwen frowned and spoke.
"Why is it so low?"
The employee sitting in front of the computer replied.
"Some users probably bought more than one."
After all, buying online was not as easy to control as buying offline. Even if each user was limited to one unit, some users with ulterior motives could still use fake phone numbers and identity information, as well as changing their IP address to bypass the threshold set by them.
An employee sitting next to him stared at the data and suddenly spoke.
"Do you think there are scalpers hoarding?"
"Probably." Li Guangwen nodded, but his expression didn't change. He clapped his hands and said, "But don't worry, we're not afraid of them disrupting the market. The new factory in the Jiangcheng industrial park is about to go into production. Apparently, the production capacity has more than doubled. Once the production capacity increases, we'll welcome all of them! "
When the employees in the office heard the project manager's words, they all laughed.
The sales department was full of joy.
Although the people in charge of planning and sales didn't seem to have put in much effort, the launch of the HV-1 equipment was undoubtedly a huge success.
They would definitely receive a huge bonus!
…
Jin Ling University.
Dorm 201.
Even if they couldn't afford it, it didn't stop some of the onlookers from paying attention to the soaring prices on the second-hand platform and cheering along with the others.
Looking at the number on the phone screen, Yang Shuang felt his hand holding the phone tremble. After a while, he squeezed out a sentence from his dry throat.
"That's crazy … the price of a helmet is already inflated to 100,000 RMB on the second-hand market!"
A hundred thousand yuan per unit …
If he bought it for 12,000 yuan, he could sell it for 100,000 yuan!
He was starting to regret that he did not ask for leave to go to Shanghai to queue up.
Wu Di was scrolling through his phone in his chair. When he heard Yang Shuang's words, he shot up from his chair and moved his head closer to Yang Shuang's phone screen. His eyes widened.
"A hundred thousand per unit? Someone's buying it? "
The two of them spent the whole night discussing the HV-1 that Huawei was about to launch. At that time, they were still lamenting that the price of 12,000 yuan was a bit too low. Even if they saved up for a year, they might not be able to afford it.
Now, it seemed that they had been overthinking.
You want to buy it with the little money you have from your living expenses?
It was like living in a dream.
Yang Shuang said, "You don't say, they're selling really fast … I heard that there are even overseas buyers who make a special trip here to buy online."
"You even know about this?"
"Isn't it because of the battle videos? A few foreigners are sitting in the airport waiting hall, using the airport's WiFi to browse the official website. The worst part is that they're crying in the middle of the night, and they can't even get a single one. "
Duan Siqi was sitting there, listening. He finally couldn't help but interrupt.
"… Are they crazy? I heard that only a virtual reality network compatible with Star Sky Technology's cloud computing service can run the Phantom system. What's the point of buying a helmet? It's not even as good as a pair of VR glasses. "
He had been researching VR related knowledge recently, so he had some understanding of the operating logic of the Phantom system. The researchers from Star Sky Technology were happy to talk to him about this. First of all, it wasn't sensitive information, and second of all, it was patented anyway. There was no way they would tell him anything that was confidential.
Yang Shuang shook his head and spoke.
"Who knows, riding a motorcycle? I think I can't see anything with it on … Anyway, I don't understand how rich people think. If they have the money to fly here, why would they care about money? "
Wu Di sighed and spoke.
"F * ck sake, this is a waste!"
At this moment, Yang Shuang suddenly thought of something and asked.
"Oh yeah, CEO Duan, didn't you say Star Sky Technology gave you a helmet?"
Duan Siqi paused for a second. He felt like someone was staring at him, so he turned around.
His two roommates looked at him with a green light in their eyes.
Duan Siqi shuddered subconsciously and said quickly.
"Don't even think about it, our helmet is a limited edition commemorative beta testers! There's no way we're selling it! I'm going to pass it down as a family heirloom. "
"Commemorative beta tester?" Yang Shuang held his phone and said excitedly, "I think someone put it up for sale yesterday, let me check …"
Wu Di, who was standing to the side, hurriedly went over and asked when he saw the exaggerated expression on this guy's face as he leaned back.
"How much?"
"… Thirty million yuan."
The entire dorm went quiet; only the sound of the laptop fan could be heard.
Yang Shuang's right hand was shaking, and he felt like he couldn't hold his phone anymore.
"F * ck sake, this is a Lamborghini!"
Wu Di gulped as well.
"… A suite at the Shanghai Stock Exchange."
"Crazy! This world is crazy! "
Duan Siqi's heart twitched violently the moment he heard 30 million. It almost lost its elasticity when it fell and did not bounce back.
The ballpoint pen in his hand fell on the table. He tried to pick it up with his trembling fingers, but he couldn't.
F * ck sake …
That's just a helmet?!
There were a few days when he was about to throw up from playing with it!
It's not worth that much, right?!
In fact, as far as he knew, even if it was a commemorative beta tester badge, it would only be displayed on the first account that was registered in the Phantom system, and the player could choose whether or not to display it.
If there was any use, it would be hanging in some games or built-in programs to show off that they had participated in "game development" before. Other than that, it didn't have any other use. It didn't have any of the so-called closed beta tester privileges.
Spending thirty million yuan on a medal like this?
Duan Siqi felt like this wasn't the world he knew anymore.
It was just like what his dormitory buddy had said.
This is crazy …
