That night, from seven to midnight, in just five hours, the sales of the Patriot Phone exceeded thirty million, and this number was still rising. Even Ji Yuan couldn't help but be astonished; parents in China really spend generously on their children!
Other domestic smartphone manufacturers had originally been sneering, relieved that the Patriot Children's Phone had suffered a setback, but now they all fell silent, unable to smile. Some even felt like crying!
Since the emergence of the Patriot Phone, other domestic smartphone brands have been selling at rock-bottom prices, each one lamenting their plight! To recoup their losses, these few phone manufacturers nearly lost their minds trying to break into foreign markets!
The Patriot Phone has been appearing frequently on the Central Mama News Broadcast, running massive advertisements—who can stand that? It would be better to bravely venture out and take a risk!
In the past, making money domestically was too easy; everyone was reluctant to go out and face the elements. Each CEO kept a close watch over their small territory. As long as they stayed put and defended their ground, riding the wave of technological advancement, even if things were tough, life was still quite comfortable.
Previously, they played with sales models and marketing strategies... but now that doesn't work anymore! Without real skills, just surviving is difficult. If they don't seek breakthroughs in technology with genuine effort soon,
It won't be long before they are eliminated.
Subtly, domestic smartphone manufacturers have begun to feel a sense of crisis. They are no longer willing to play tricks in sales and marketing as they did in the past; instead, they are genuinely reflecting and returning to the serious task of making products.
The Stellar Research Institute under Ark Technology has just made some progress in the chip field, and Mother Ji called him back home with a phone call.
"Mom, are you saying Xiao Xiao is coming? What for?"
The Ji family's hometown is in Yangcheng. After Ji Fu's career flourished, he brought his wife and children to settle in the capital.
Xiao Xiao is Ji Yuan's cousin, just eighteen years old this year, with good grades, having been accepted into Qingmu University and Yanjing University.
"Wait a minute, Mom, you can't be planning to have her come live with me." Ji Yuan suddenly had a bad premonition, feeling he might have guessed the truth.
"She's just a young girl coming all the way to the capital for school. It's not convenient for her to live on campus yet, so what's wrong with her staying with you until she finds a suitable place? You have plenty of room; it's not like she's going to share a bed with you," Mother Ji said.
"Back then, she was so young. Xiao Xiao is now a grown girl; it's inconvenient for her to live with me."
"Hey, you little brat, she's your cousin! I'm just asking her to stay with you for a while; I'm not asking you to date your cousin!" Mother Ji said through gritted teeth.
Watching her son spend every day in the research lab, engrossed in his work like a madman, made her heart ache. Coincidentally, her niece had come from Yangcheng to study in the capital, so why not have her help persuade him to find a girlfriend and settle down to start a family?
"That's hard to say. I know your thoughts all too well. If it were really my cousin, that would be one thing since there's a blood relation, but you know better than I do where Xiao Xiao comes from. What if something happens? Wouldn't I lose face?" Ji Yuan pretended to chatter on.
He understood his mother's temperament very well; she loved to nag but couldn't stand being nagged herself. What was this nonsense about having nowhere to live? That was just a joke. Not to mention, Mother Ji owned properties in the capital worth over a thousand units.
Near Qingmu University and Yanjing University, just a little slip of the fingers could reveal several apartments. Since Mother Ji had made up her mind to play hardball, Ji Yuan had to be even more stubborn than she was to change her mind. Finding a girlfriend? Could anything be more enjoyable than researching chips?
