Chapter 882 The Trend of the Times
Gaul, Paris.
In District 13 of the capital, in a high-end apartment.
The layout was messy, clothes were scattered everywhere, and the space on the table and floor was occupied by many green wine bottles. The only good thing was that there was no peculiar smell in the room.
Alice is a reporter for the world-famous media "Le Monde" in her country. This name can be said to be one of the top three in the country of Gaul. The original meaning of this name is the national flower of Gaul, also called the iris.
The three petals represent the Holy Trinity of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. In Gaul, they symbolize light and freedom, national purity, solemnity, and aboveboardness, so they are often named after them.
Also common female names are louise, alma and léa.
Although her character is relatively lazy, at least the garbage will be thrown away at work. As for the clutter at home?
Anyway, you can find things yourself, and it's not like the garbage that will stink if you don't throw it away, so it doesn't matter.
"\bThere are still five minutes left, just hold on!"
Alice glanced at the upper left side of the phone. After seeing the numbers "06:55" in her slightly tired eyes, she shot out a ray of light.
She picked up the coffee cup on the table with her right hand and took a sip subconsciously. A chill flowed down her throat. Alice couldn't help but shudder, and she patted her head in frustration.
"Damn, I forgot the coffee was cold!"
Gaul is in the East District 1 and China is in the East District 8. Under normal circumstances, Gaul time is 7 hours behind China.
In other words, when Huaxing held a press conference at 10 o'clock Beijing time, it was 3 o'clock in the morning in Paris. In order to wait for the press conference, Alice stayed up until now, relying entirely on coffee.
The reason why she didn't sleep after watching the press conference was not because she didn't go to work today, but because she wanted to grab the first batch of mate55rs!
Journalists in Gaul are well paid, not to mention that Alice is also a senior reporter for Le Monde.
But when she thought about the time difference between China and France and the panic buying, Alice wanted to curse.
"There are a total of 1.2 million units in the first launch, and China accounts for half. So many countries around the world are trying to grab the remaining 600,000 units?? This is not fair!"
"And the RS model is still on pre-sale, shameless capitalist!"
After cursing, a small part of the resentment in my heart dissipated. If I can get it later, I won't care about Huaxing, but if I don't get it...
She vowed that she would go on Twitter and Facebook to criticize this Huaxing!
\bThe time is approaching 7 o'clock, Alice's body is tense, her fingers are hanging above the "Submit Order" button on the screen, just waiting to press it when 59 returns to zero.
"I'll definitely get it. Come on, Alice!" Alice murmured.
06:59-07:00.
The moment the numbers changed, the gray items on the shopping cart suddenly lit up. At this moment, Alice clicked on the item without hesitation.
The order is submitted, the payment is made, and the payment is successful.
Looking at the credit card prompt that she had just spent a sum of 2,295 euros, Alice's little mouth opened wide, and the expression on her face changed from disbelief to ecstasy.
“Oh God, I actually got it?!”
"Great, Alice has been favored by Lady Luck. Today is a lucky day!"
Alice kept dancing with her hands, and even stood up and danced a few times.
“I have to take a screenshot and post it on Instagram and Twitter!”
She can't wait to post this joy and surprise on the Internet. When she thinks that those who can't grab it will see her posts, they will definitely be jealous.
The European market is Huaxing's largest market outside China, but Alice is not a fan of Huaxing. Most of the mobile phones she has used are Apple.
Even when Huaxing's special edition mobile phone with photon screen was launched last year, she was only shaken by it, but it's different now, this is an optical core mobile phone!
It has been hailed as an epoch-making product in the mobile phone industry by major media around the world.
No matter how much you like the Apple mobile phone compared to the Huaxing mate55 series, it is not that important.
Just like the iPhone 4s that came out of nowhere and was hailed as a masterpiece.
This is a trend and the trend of the times.
…
at the same time.
Dormitory 306, Tianxiang College, Guanghua University.
"Worita is so stupid, but he didn't get it?!"
"Damn it, I was an African chief in my last life, right? I couldn't attend the previous press conferences, and I couldn't get the mobile phone?"
"Mom sells batches, will anyone really win? Isn't there smoke coming out of the ancestral graves?"
When Su Wei heard the words "green smoke", he touched his nose and looked unnatural.
In order to grab the phone, Zhang Jifeng nervously had his hands covered with sweat. He wiped the sweat with a tissue and thought to himself, but he couldn't grab it yet, which made him angry to death.
The three models add up to 120,000 units in each period, and millions of netizens participate in the rush to buy. It is luck to get it, and it is normal not to get it.
The angry Zhang Jifeng suddenly noticed that there were only three voices in the dormitory just now, why was there one missing?
The one who didn't speak was Su Wei. He glanced over and felt that the other person looked a little strange, so he couldn't help but get up and walk over.
After seeing the contents of Su Wei's mobile phone screen clearly, he was shocked.
"Holding the grass, Lao Su, you actually grabbed it?!"
Immediately, he turned around and started calling his roommates.
"Luobotou, Xiaoxin, come here and take a look! Lao Su has grabbed it!"
\bLuobotou is Xin Wei's nickname, and Xiaoxin's real name is Zhu Xiaoxin.
As soon as they heard that Su Wei had grabbed it, the two of them put down their phones and gathered around.
"Zhou Cao, did you really get it? That's awesome!"
"Damn it, what kind of unlucky luck is this? \bLao Su was picked to watch the press conference before, and now he got a mobile phone??"
The three of them were so envious that they almost separated. Fortunately, they usually had a good relationship in the dormitory.
"Lao Su, why are you hesitating? Pay it quickly! This is the first payment!" Seeing Su Wei's delay in paying, Zhang Jifeng was even more anxious than Su Wei and couldn't help but start urging.
"Well……"
Su Wei scratched his head, his eyes showing confusion.
He regrets choosing the mate55pro256g. This one costs 6,799 yuan, while the standard version only costs 5,499 yuan, which is a difference of 1,300 yuan!
For college students, this number is equivalent to one month's living expenses, which is not a small number.
His family's circumstances are not bad, but they are not that rich either. He could ask for money from his family for a new mobile phone for 5,000 yuan, but 6,799 yuan is close to 7,000 yuan, and he really doesn't know how to ask for it.
Zhu Xiaoxin is the most attentive person in the dormitory. He probably guessed it and said directly: "Ahem, Lao Su, it just so happened that I didn't grab it. I'll lend you as much money as you need. You can pay me back when you have enough money."
Su Wei refused without thinking, "No, no, no, really no, I..."
But in the middle of his words, he was interrupted by Zhu Xiaoxin.
"You're stupid, this is the first release! Even if you don't plan to use it yourself, it will cost at least a few hundred yuan if you resell it. Isn't it delicious?"
Zhu Xiaoxin didn't wait for Su Wei to refute again, and immediately transferred the money using WeChat.
"I've already forwarded it to you on WeChat, man, stop nagging."
"Xiaoxin...thank you."
Su Wei breathed out slowly, and while moved, he also made up his mind to improve his academic performance.
Guanghua University is definitely one of the top schools in the country in terms of financial resources. There are many corporate scholarships and scholarships established by the school. As long as you have excellent grades, you can get three to five thousand per semester.
What Su Wei didn't know was that someone in the same dormitory building also grabbed the phone.
This person’s name is Chen Shupeng.
ps: My balls hurt, Kavin is awesome.
