"Has your Wa-wah returned home?"
This was the most popular phrase in her WeChat Moments.
Yuan Lin did not pay much attention to this phrase at first, but after seeing it more often, or seeing the comments everywhere in her WeChat Moments, she realized that the situation was not quite right.
The era of national laziness was approaching.
The birth of the Wa-wah robot announced the arrival of the era where humans did not need to clean up. This phrase was certainly exaggerated, but with the Wa-wah robot, the household cleaning workload would be reduced by 50%, or even 70%, or 80%.
Hence, the Wa-wah robot became popular.
"The Wa-wah robot is the sixth essential household appliance after refrigerators, washing machines, televisions, air conditioners, and water heaters. Its status exceeds that of televisions, and is at least as important as refrigerators."
"It's a necessity, a must! Just look at my dirty floor, I need a Wa-wah robot. "
"Buying a Wa-wah robot at a higher price, buy it immediately if it's no higher than $4,500! Around $5,000 is negotiable. "
"Taking care of two children is too tiring, and no one is cleaning the house. Who can sell me a Wa-wah robot?"
These messages were all posted by Yuan Lin's good friends or bosom friends in her WeChat Moments.
As for the Wa-wah robot in her house, it had arrived earlier than everyone else, and had been in service for almost a month.
Since she was not responsible for cleaning the house, even if the robot was very clean, she did not feel particularly cold and did not think much of it.
But the heated discussion in her WeChat Moments was somewhat beyond her expectations.
It was as if they were fighting for the latest Fruit phone. A bosom friend from a well-to-do family increased the price by $8,000, and spent more than $10,000 to buy a Wa-wah robot from a scalper. She posted pictures every day to show off in her WeChat Moments, attracting the envy of others. Yuan Lin could not sit still anymore.
She directly replied to her bosom friend, "The original price of a Wa-wah robot is only $3,000, and you increased the price by $8,000? Are you crazy? How can that thing be so valuable? "
Unexpectedly, her bosom friend immediately retorted, "Of course it's worth it! Do you know how useful Wa-wah is? Do you know how difficult it is to get one now? It's not expensive at all, and those who have used it feel that it's worth it! "
Then, her bosom friend posted another message in her WeChat Moments, saying in a mocking tone, "Some people actually think that a Wa-wah robot costs more than $10,000, and the scalpers have increased the price to $20,000! Foresight and insight are really important. "
This news nearly caused Yuan Lin to explode in anger!
What a fake bestie. She was showing off in her WeChat Moments, but when she said that it was too expensive, she immediately rebuked her for having poor taste?
She immediately took a few photos and posted it on her WeChat Moments. [My Wa-wah returned home on the third day of the Lunar New Year. He has been working for more than a month.]
The plastic bestie replied almost instantly, "Impossible! The pre-orders for the Wa-wah robot opened on the fifteenth of the first month of the lunar year. The shipment will only start in half a month. Where did you get your Wa-wah robot? "
"A friend gave it to me," Yuan Lin replied. The figure of a man appeared in her mind.
"Who? That friend? Are you lying to me? "The plastic bestie refused to give up.
"Uh, his surname is Chen. He's the boss of Xing Hai Technologies. The Wa-wah robot … seems to have been created by his company." Yuan Lin actually didn't want to bring up that hateful mommy's boy, but the plastic bestie in front of her was even more annoying, so she could only explain.
Wow!
Almost immediately, the WeChat Moments exploded.
Countless friends began to @ her in a frenzy.
"Yuan Lin, you know the boss of Xing Hai Technologies?"
"No wonder … no wonder he used the Wa-wah robot so quickly."
"Lin Lin, can you give me the contact information of the boss of Xing Hai Technologies? I want to buy a Wa-wah robot from him. "
"Okay, Lin Lin, please do me a favor. Can you tell the boss of Xing Hai Technologies to sell me a Wa-wah robot?"
"I want to buy one, too! Sister Lin Lin, can you do me a favor? "
"Lin Lin …"
Countless requests for contact information and help to buy a Wa-wah robot were too much for Yuan Lin to reply.
Yuan Lin refused to give contact information because she didn't have it, but her mother did. She didn't dare to agree to the request to buy a Wa-wah robot. She only said that she would give it a try. She didn't dare to guarantee that it would be a success.
Her friends expressed their understanding, but they all hoped that she would give it a try.
However, the plastic bestie mocked her in the group, "Yuan Lin, I didn't expect you to be so good at pretending. You even said that you know the boss of Xing Hai Technologies? Since you know him, why didn't you say that you would definitely be able to buy a Wa-wah robot? I think you don't know him. You just want to act cool, right? Hmph! Yuan Lin, you're a scheming b * tch. "
Yuan Lin's chest was about to explode from anger. She immediately replied, "Three days. Get 10 units. You can take screenshots as proof!"
"You bought 10 units from the scalpers at a high price, right? Yuan Lin, you're really rich. "The plastic bestie continued to mock her.
Yuan Lin ignored her.
Instead, she picked up her phone and called her mother to get that guy's number.
…
Xing Hai Technologies.
"Ring ring ring ~"
The phone rang.
Chen Jin picked up his phone and looked at it. It was an unknown number.
Was it another harassment call?
He had received hundreds of harassment calls in the past few days. It was annoying.
After some thought, Chen Jin hung up the phone. He didn't answer.
"Du du du ~"
Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Yuan Lin was stunned at first. Then, she gritted her teeth. "How dare you hang up on me?"
She dialed another number, but it was hung up in an instant.
Yuan Lin's chest rose and fell violently. She punched the sofa pillow with her dainty fists. "Rude b * stard!"
After sulking for a while, she considered that she had no choice but to ask him for help. If she couldn't get the goods in three days, her plastic bestie would definitely trample on her, making her even more embarrassed.
She had no choice but to call her mother again and tell her about the situation. She asked her mother to contact that guy directly and tell him about her situation.
…
"Sure! Aunt Dong, 10 or 20 units are not a problem. I'll make a call right now and ask the factory to deliver the goods. We'll try to get them by tomorrow. "
Chen Jin agreed. He still had to give face to Aunt Dong. 10 units was not a lot, and the overall impact would be minimal.
Dong Lei said, "Little Chen, I'll have to trouble you with this. How about this, I'll transfer $50,000 to you. The rarer something is, the greater its value. Even the cheapest Wa-wah robot costs $5,000 on the scalper market. You're actually losing out by giving me the goods at the original price. I can't let you lose out."
"No need! If you give me $50,000, I can only return the money and not deliver the goods. We're a legitimate company, not a scalper organization. "
Scalpers were rampant. This was a problem that the higher-ups of Xing Hai Technologies had been discussing for the past few days. They were discussing how to curb scalpers! In the end, they found that the best way to deal with it was to expand production and ensure that everyone could buy the robots.
"Alright, Little Chen. Thank you, Aunt Dong!"
Suddenly, Dong Lei's heart skipped a beat. She couldn't help but say, "Little Chen, the two calls you received just now were from my daughter, Lin Lin. I gave her your number. Do you want to keep it? You can answer the next time she calls. "
"So it was your daughter, Aunt Dong? I'm sorry, I hung up just now. I'll keep my number immediately. I won't hang up next time! "
Chen Jin immediately added the unknown number to his contact list. The contact name was "Director Dong's daughter."
"Okay, okay." Dong Lei's face was full of smiles.
…
Liang Ying, who had recently been promoted to the company's deputy manager, walked in and said, "Chief Chen, someone downstairs wants to visit you. Even the front desk couldn't stop them."
"Who wants to see me?"
Recently, there were dozens of people who wanted to visit him. They wanted to talk about cooperation and acquisitions. It was intolerable.
"It's a very young woman. She says she's a film director and wants to discuss cooperation in film and television."
"Director … let her come up."
