Chapter 140 10,000 Banners, Innumerable Appreciation Letters! (2/2)
On the internet, stories of success by numerous parents were frantically spreading like a virus. Some netizens were questioning whether people were hired to do so. Was Xing Hai Technologies playing with the brainwashing marketing strategy or compassion marketing strategy? Would they, for the sake of money, throw away their bottom line and create stories in exchange for the sales of the Little Star leaning machine? The voices of doubt were in abundance, evolving into a bunch of professional ”Xing Hai Defamers,” where they swore to expose the true colors of Xing Hai Technologies. But those voices were very weak compared to the overwhelming reviews by parents.
After all, people could say that it was fake if there were only 10 or less stories of success. But what about having 100 thousand or 500 thousand of them? In some of the posts, information about the school name, class, or even the students themselves were provided. There were also many before-after comparison pictures of result transcripts. Did that at least prove that a portion of the stories were true?
It was on fire. The Little Star earning machine was trending throughout the whole nation and raised a furor in countless primary schools. Many primary schoolers told their own parents, ”Dad, mom, I want a Little Star learning machine!” Countless parents were delighted to see their children after using the Little Star learning machine. Even if it was not as exaggerated as written in some articles, the improvements were definitely significant.
Especially for the rankings on the ”List of Scholars”, the competition was downright harsh. People were becoming afraid that they would fall behind others. They also wanted to catch up to those who were clearly in the lead! For some super scholars, in order to establish a bigger lead, they started learning from the higher knowledge checkpoints ahead of time, widening their gap with others, not giving anyone any chance to catch up to them.
If it wasn't that the knowledge on the Tree of knowledge was capped at primary six, some of the super scholars would have started challenging knowledge checkpoints of the junior high level. And so, it went wild. Sales went crazy. After the Little Star learning machine was spread by word of mouth, within 10 days of the WeChat Business Model being established, all three million Little Star learning machines were completely sold out, including the two million units sold online. All five million units were sold, and stock supplies were completely broken.
At that time, just when the market demand for the Little Star learning machine was at its fanatical peak, it actually went out of stock.
”10 thousand, who can sell me a Little Star learning machine?”
”20 thousand, I'll pay 20 thousand!”
”30 thousand! My kid is almost going to primary school, desperately need a Little Star learning machine! I'll pay 30 thousand!”
”50 thousand! Anyone, please give me a Little Star learning machine! I'm begging on my knees!”
...
Looking at the scene in the WeChat groups with parents increasing their bids frantically, desperately trying to buy a little star learning machine, Zhao Tiezhu, who had a bloated face, rough behavior, and was wearing a large golden chain in front of his chest, stuck his head near the screen as his eyes became red. Suddenly, he spat out the cigarette in his mouth and bashed the table with his fist! Then, he bashed on his own chest!
”Xing Hai Technologies, you f**king playing cruel with me, eh! Zhao Tiezhu, are you f**king blind, why didn't you pile a few hundred or even more than a thousand units? Money, all of that f**king cash, all my millions, they are all gone! All of them! Zhao Tiezhu, listen carefully, next time, no matter what Xing Hai Technologies comes up with, even a pile of dung, buy them, buy them as if it is your life, buy as many as you can!”
Zhao Tiezhu was a professional scalper. He earned millions over the past year selling Wa-wah robots. But this time, he miscalculated. He felt remorse, even hoping that the heavens would kill him with a bolt of lightning and return him to the night where the Little Star learning machine was released. Unfortunately, there was no such thing as a regret potion in this world, he could only learn from his painful lesson this time around. Concluding his experience, never would he allow any opportunity to slip away ever again!
