I Found A Planet Chapter 74 The Visi

“Do you have a Wa-wah at home?”

This was the most popular question on Moments recently. Yuen Lin did not pay too much attention at first, but the question just popped up so many times. Comments like “I need a Wa-wah robot at home” were everywhere on Moments. She finally noticed that something was wrong.

The slacking era was coming soon!

The birth of Wa-wah robots marked the end of the manual-cleaning era. It was a bit exaggerated, but ever since the introduction of Wa-wah robots, at least 50%, or even 70% and 80% of the household cleaning chores were reduced. That’s why Wa-wah robots were going viral.

“Apart from fridges, washing machines, television, air-conditioners, and electric water heaters, Wa-wah robots are now the sixth indispensable appliance in the human household, exceeding the importance of television, and becoming as significant as fridges.”

“This is something we need regardless of the price! Just look at the dirty floor at our home. We need a Wa-wah robot.”

“I will buy a Wa-wah robot with a higher price. I will immediately purchase it if it’s below $4,500. Negotiations if it’s around $5,000.”

“Taking care of two kids just wears me out, and there’s no one to clean the house, can anybody sell me a Wa-wah robot?”

All this information was posted by Yuen Lin’s good friends or besties on Moments. As for the Wa-wah robot in her house, with its delivery time earlier than any other, it had been serving her family for over a month. Since she was never responsible for the cleaning chores at home, she was just not interested and didn’t find the robot particularly impressive even if it cleaned so well.

But the hot discussion on Moments was out of her expectation. It was like making a run for the latest Apple smartphones. A rich bestie paid eight thousand dollars more, spending a total of over ten thousand to get a Wa-wah robot from the scalpers. She posted photos on Moments every day and filled everyone with envy. After that, Yuen Lin couldn’t hold herself back anymore.　

She replied to her bestie directly. “The original price of the Wa-wah robot is only around three thousand, and you pay eight thousand more? Are you nuts? Is it really worth the price?”

Unexpectedly, her bestie instantly fired back, “Of course! Do you know how great Wa-wah robots are? Do you know how hard it is to get one now? Only around ten thousand dollars for one, it’s not expensive at all. Anyone who has used it gets their money’s worth.” Soon the bestie posted on Moments with a sarcastic tone, “Only ten thousand dollars for a Wa-wah robot and somebody finds it pricey. The scalpers have already marked the price up to twenty or even thirty thousand. Having good taste and exposure is just so important.”

The post almost drove Yuen Lin crazy! What a pretentious frenemy on Moments. Just because she said that it was too expensive, that frenemy instantly fired back saying that she did not have a good taste? She immediately took a few pictures and posted on Moments: “This is my Wa-wah robot. I got it on the third day of the Lunar New Year, and it has been serving us for over a month now.”

That frenemy replied almost within a second. “That’s impossible, the pre-order started on the fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, and the delivery only began two weeks after that. Where did you get your Wa-wah robot?”

“My friend sent it to me,” Yuen Lin said. In her reply, the shadow of a man floated to her mind.

“Who? Which friend? Are you lying?” the frenemy asked relentlessly.

“Ah, his last name is Chen, he’s the boss of Xing Hai Technologies. Wa-wah robots were designed by his company,” said Yuen Lin. In fact, she didn’t want to talk about that mommy’s boy, but the frenemy was even more annoying, so she could only explain the situation.

Wow!

The Moments had gone insane. In utter amazement, countless friends started to tag her like crazy.

“Yuen Lin, you know the boss of Xing Hai Technologies?”

“No wonder she could use the Wa-wah robot this early.”

“Linlin, can you forward the contact of the company’s boss to me? I want to buy a Wa-wah robot.”

“My dear Linlin, please do me a favor. Can you talk to the boss of Xing Hai Technologies and ask him to sell me a Wa-wah robot?”

“I want one too! My Linlin, please do me this favor!”

“Linlin…”

Countless replies asked for the contact number, seeking to buy a Wa-wah robot. There were so many that she couldn’t reply to all of them.

Yuen Lin refused to give the contact information because she didn’t have it either, but her mom did have it. As for helping them buy the Wa-wah robots, she did not dare to promise. She only promised to try but did not guarantee success. The friends said that they understand but still want her to give it a try.

The frenemy mocked her in the group. “Yuen Lin, I’ve never known that you can pretend so well. You say you know the boss of Xing Hai Technologies. If that’s true, why couldn’t you guarantee to buy the Wa-wah robots for us? I say you are just lying and being pretentious. Humph! Yuen Lin, you’re just a scheming bitch.”

Yuen Lin got hot under the collar. She instantly replied with rage, “Give me three days and I can buy ten. You can screenshot the photos as proof.”

“You mean ten robots from the scalpers? Yuen Lin, you really have a lot of money to blow,” that frenemy continued to tease her.

Yuen Lin ignored her. She picked up the phone, gave a call to her mom, and got the number of that guy.

..…

“Sure, Auntie Dong, 10 or even 20 robots are not going to be a problem. I’ll make a call to the factory and ask them to deliver the products, hoping that they can arrive by tomorrow.” Chen Jin kept promising. After all, he needed to do Auntie Dong a favor. Besides, ten robots weren’t much, and they would hardly affect the company.

“Little Chen, I have to trouble you this time. How about this, I will transfer fifty thousand to you. Scarcity makes everything more valuable. The cheapest robot in the scalpers’ market was five thousand, you’ll suffer losses if you sell the robots to me at the original price, and I don’t want to see that.”

“No, if you pay me fifty thousand, I will only return it to you and will not deliver the goods. We’re a regulated company but not scalpers.” The scalped robots were everywhere. All the high-rank staff of Hai Xing Technologies had been discussing this issue of halting the scalpers. The best counter-measure was to increase the production capacity and make sure everyone could get one.

“Alright, Little Chen. Auntie Dong really appreciates your help!” Suddenly, Dong Lei’s heart moved, and she said, “Little Chen, the two calls you just received were from my daughter Linlin. I gave your number to her. Maybe you can save it so that you can answer the call next time?”

“Oh, it was your daughter? I am sorry. I rejected the call just now. I’ll save the number now, and I’ll definitely answer it next time.” Chen Jin immediately added the unknown number to the contact list with the name “Daughter of Manager Dong.”

“Very well then,” Dong Lei said with a wide smile.

……

“Chief Chen, someone wants to see you downstairs, even the front desk couldn’t stop her,” said Liang Ying, the newly promoted deputy manager.

“Who’s that?” Recently, dozens of people tried to reach him every day, hoping to talk about collaboration and acquisition. There were just so many of them.

“It’s a very young lady. She said she was a movie director and she wanted to discuss with you about a movie collaboration.”

“A director… let her in.” Chen Jin was a bit curious. This was the first time a director took the initiative to visit him, so he planned to give her a chance.
