May arrived in a hurry.
Delicate and pink peach blossoms fell to the ground, like a magnificent and dreamy fairy tale rain, fluttering in the wind. The fingernail-sized fruits stayed quietly on the branches, waiting for June to ripen slowly.
At the beginning of the month, a major event happened in B City that shook the entire upper-class social circle.
Jing 'an Culture Co., Ltd. and Zhongda Communications Co., Ltd. launched a new smartphone that was completely different from the current one. Unlike the previous phones that were only small and light, which were basically palm-sized, the new phone was rectangular, and the screen took up four-fifths of the entire body. There was no numeric keypad, only a return button, a menu button, and a hook button in the middle that could return to the home page of the screen.
When the phone first appeared, it attracted a large number of people's attention.
Wei Zhe and Zhongda Communications wantonly advertised on TV and set up online testing shops. This was a wonderful world. No matter who it was, after using something better, it was inevitable that they would feel a little disappointed when faced with the "inferior" phone in their hands.
The asking price of a phone was 8,889 yuan, which exceeded the psychological expectations of too many people. Just as some people were hesitating, more people who were not short of money were not stingy with a large sum of money, just to get a novel thing, or to show off, or to express that they were different from others.
Molly came from a good family, and she was willing to work hard. She was now a small leader of a foreign company. When the phone first came out, she hesitated for two days and chose to wait and see.
Who knew that within a few days, the phone was put on a "sold out" sign, and it said to the public that it had urgently notified the factory to speed up production, and the next batch of goods would only be available in a week.
The people around her all used the new phones, and Molly held the old phone alone, feeling regretful.
At the same time, various posts appeared on the Internet asking for the purchase of the new phones. The scalpers stirred up the muddy water and sold the phones to others at double the price.

In the clean and tidy hall, the warm yellow light poured down from above, casting a layer of soft light on the young boy's delicate cheeks. He stared at the velvet box in front of him, dumbfounded. The familiar big screen and buttons made Wei Jing feel that he had returned to his previous life for a moment.
"This … this … where did it come from?" Wei Jing stuttered, and his white and delicate fingers subconsciously clenched. Could it be that … other than himself, someone else had been reborn?
"What's wrong? You don't like it? " The young man sat beside the young boy. His tall adult body was like a beast, quietly lurking in this small world. Wei Zhe glanced at Wei Jing strangely. "Do you know what this is?"
Wei Jing's expression froze. Mommy! Did he say something wrong?
He peeked at his big brother timidly. His forehead was covered in sweat, and he said vaguely, "Isn't this the cell phone that's been very popular recently? I heard that it's very hard to buy. Where did you get it from, Big Brother? "
"Little fool." His voice was low and deep with a hint of hoarseness. It was sexy and mesmerizing. Now that he was calling her so intimately and affectionately, Wei Jing's ears turned red. He said, "This phone was developed by our company. As the boss, I should have some privileges."
Wei Jing: "…" So that's how it is … What the hell! (* * * □ ′) * ((* ━ *)
He nervously swallowed a mouthful of saliva and tried his best to calm his expression. Without showing any signs, he pretended not to care and said, "Big Brother, did you initiate the development of this phone?"
Wei Zhe averted his gaze and stared at the young man's porcelain-like skin. His light pink lips had already been bitten to a crimson red. His curly black eyelashes fluttered uneasily, and his tender fingers fidgeted with each other.
His lies were of such poor quality that anyone could tell at a glance.
Wei Zhe suddenly had a crazy and unbelievable idea. It was like a weed in spring. Even if it was suppressed to the deepest part of his heart, it still stubbornly stuck out its sharp teeth.
"No." He lied with a light smile on his face. "It's just a group of young people who had an idea. I saw that their project was good, so I took the opportunity to invest a sum of money." He looked a little puzzled. "Is there a problem with that?"
Wei Jing heaved a sigh of relief, and his nervous expression relaxed. "Nothing, I'm just a little curious." He grabbed the cell phone and snuggled into his big brother's arms like an ordinary child. He said in a soft voice, "How do I use this? Big Brother, teach me. "
As long as it wasn't Big Brother who had been reborn, it was fine!
"Like this, like this …" Wei Zhe hugged Wei Jing and taught him patiently after turning on the cell phone, as if he hadn't discovered anything.
The new cell phone was slightly inferior to the mature smartphones of the future, but in this era, it was definitely one of a kind. Wei Jing was used to using it after all, so it didn't take long for him to understand it thoroughly.
The young man placed his broad palm on the young boy's soft black hair and praised him ambiguously. "My Xiaojing is really smart."
Wei Jing looked back at the young man with a smile, his eyes rippling with a soft smile. He was silly, like a cute little animal, not knowing that his owner's heart was in turmoil at this moment.
The night was deep, and the May breeze was still cold. Wei Zhe was alone in his bedroom. The balcony window was open, and he could see the stars dotting the blue sky from afar. It was like a painting meticulously made by an artist, mysterious and distant.
Wei Zhe took out a cigarette from the drawer and put it in his mouth. He was addicted to smoking in his previous life and smoked one or two cigarettes every day. He didn't touch it in this life, but when he encountered a difficult problem, he liked to take out a cigarette. He didn't light it, but just inhaled the familiar smell of nicotine, which always made his thoughts clearer.
On the road of destiny, there were countless crossroads.
He was already familiar with the Wei Jing of his previous life. The person involved couldn't see clearly. Obviously, Wei Jing's tone and behavior were so different from when he was young in his previous life, but he was always immersed in the joy of regaining what he had lost. His eyes were blocked, and he couldn't see anything else.
But … what if it wasn't him?
Wei Zhe took a deep breath. He didn't know if he should expect this to be his younger brother who had spent a long time with him in his previous life.
Why did he betray him in his previous life? This was the answer that Wei Zhe couldn't figure out even after racking his brains.
Let's wait and see! He threw the cigarette in his mouth into the trash can. Maybe it was just his imagination?
In the following period of time, the mobile phones developed by Wei Zhe and Zhongda Communication were always in short supply. At the same time, Jing An's software development team also put up two new easy-to-play games in the mobile phone's built-in store.
The brand-new design concept and gameplay made people cry out in joy.
Wei Zhe rushed to launch a brand new social media app, which was different from QQ. They invited famous celebrities to participate in the app, and they didn't hesitate to advertise it on TV.
People who had just gotten their hands on a mobile phone always liked to play with all kinds of gadgets. The app was downloaded as soon as they bought a mobile phone, and they only needed to register. They could browse the app even if they didn't register, but they couldn't leave comments or add things they liked.
When Wei Jing opened the app store, he was shocked. Wasn't … wasn't this a Weibo from his previous life?
With a little hidden curiosity, Wei Jing happily opened the app. He found that it was very lively now. There were people reposting beautiful photos of celebrities, writing all kinds of heart-wrenching stories, and drawing … there were all kinds of things.
Wei Jing scratched his head in puzzlement. This … was a new app, how could it be so popular?
He didn't know that Wei Zhe always did things to the best of his ability. He knew how difficult it was for a new app to become famous in his previous life. The people in front of him were still naive, and they hadn't been baptized by all kinds of advertisements in the future. They had already developed a pair of discerning eyes.
The effect of celebrities was very good, but just a few celebrities couldn't keep most of the customers.
If he wanted the customers to stay, then he had to make them feel that it was fun and interesting … A heart-wrenching serial novel could make people unable to stop reading it. A two-dimensional cartoon version could make people like anime and manga fans …
In addition to the constant flattery of the Internet Water Army, as long as you registered an account, you would definitely get responses from strangers … You would get encouragement if you said something discouraging, and there would always be people who would answer your questions … Slowly, the more time you spent on the app, the more addicted you would be to it … In the end, you would become its most loyal user.
From time to time, Wei Zhe would ask people to repost the app and draw prizes. The prizes were as high as a new mobile phone, and as cheap as a pencil and diary, and so on.
The more mobile phones he bought, the more users there would be.
Some people who didn't get a mobile phone heard about it, and they couldn't help but use their computers to log in and register an account.
At the moment, Wei Jing didn't understand the trick, so he quickly registered an account for himself. When he was thinking of a name, he hesitated for a moment. In the end, he remembered the manga in his brother's study and had an idea. The cute name of Little Pangolin Cat was born just like that …
The avatar was a pencil drawing he made at the last minute. The fat orange cat was stretching its body, and its pink pads were stretched out. A pair of watery black eyes were innocently looking in front of it. It was soft and cute.
Then, Wei Jing picked up the pen and drew a noble and elegant black cat next to the fat orange cat. The black cat's eyes were a charming light yellow, and its slender tail was resting on the orange cat's body. There was a hint of helplessness and love in its eyes …
He picked up his phone, took a photo of this picture, and published it in an album with the caption — Big Brother and Me.
After he finished all this, it was already very late.
Wei Jing covered his mouth and yawned. He wore cotton white pajamas, lay on the bed, and fell asleep. When he woke up the next day, he was stunned to see that he had gained more than a hundred new fans, 300 to 400 reposts, thousands of likes, and more than 500 comments.
Mommy! He felt that if this continued, he would have hundreds of thousands of fans in minutes. The road to online fame would not be a dream!
Wei Jing put away his phone and ate his breakfast in a daze. Looking at his brother's busy figure, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. Oh! If this continued, he felt that … he should be able to support his brother!
