Chapter 470: Chapter 470: Aiding Tyranny_1

"Three... three million units?"

Upon hearing this number, Shen Dong broke into a beaming smile, "Pack them all up, and ship them all to me."

Three million units, the advance payment alone would be three hundred million RMB.

Zhao Wenliang’s heart was pounding, he quickly agreed, unable to stop fantasizing about how the Prince would reward him if he clinched a sales revenue of seventy-eight billion.

Shen Dong was also smiling.

However, his smile left Kang Yue in a daze, full of anticipation and hesitation, she couldn’t help but emphasize, "In our previous life, the entire Celestial Empire’s mobile phone sales were only eighty million units, have you gone mad?"

"I might be mad, but I don’t think I’m wrong," Shen Dong, digging his ear casually, said with a carefree demeanor looking at Kang Yue, "The ’Pear’ generation of smartphones would normally be introduced now, but here we are, two years ahead of schedule."

"The Celestial Empire will take at least another year to fully implement 3G technology, but Liuqiu will move fast, and another point, I don’t plan on selling the mobile phone as just a phone."

"What? Then what are you selling it as?"

"An investment commodity," Shen Dong flashed a grin, raising an eyebrow at Kang Yue, "You tell me, the market price is two thousand, I sell it for 1,200, and moreover, I promise an eighty percent refund for unopened units."

"You tell me, would anyone want that?"

"Would anyone think, huh? Buy it for 1,200, and then sell it for 1,300, making a quick hundred bucks right away?"

"Speculation, eh."

But it’s not that simple, which is why Shen Dong wouldn’t act rashly.

If they made a profit, everyone would be happy; if they lost, well, too bad, the stock market has risks, investors should be cautious, after all, it’s the people of Liuqiu who would be cut, and Shen Dong had no guilt in his heart.

On the plane, Shen Dong kept his eyes shut as he refined his plans and also pondered the collaboration with Mr. Ma.

In Min Province, at the Bamentai Hotel.

Mr. Ma had seventeen or eighteen bodyguards filling up the hallway.

The bodyguards of an influential figure always looked impressive, full of vigor and spirit.

When Shen Dong met Mr. Ma from Penguin, he first bowed deeply, then spoke earnestly, "Huaxu was attacked, the Third Brother incarcerated, thank you Mr. Ma for not abandoning us, such kindness, Third Brother and the entire Huaxu, will forever remember in our hearts."

"You’re too kind," Mr. Ma silently admired him and led Shen Dong and the others into the room.

Scholars and poets are prone to prattle, but time is gold for businessmen; after a brief exchange of pleasantries, Shen Dong got to the point, "Mr. Ma, users are money, but nationwide computer purchases are still a luxury, given the current national situation, would you agree?"

Mr. Ma nodded, saying nothing.

Undeterred, Shen Dong earnestly continued, "The advent of smartphones will gradually replace computers and become the main force of the internet. What do you think, Mr. Ma?"

"Yes," Mr. Ma replied with a consistently gentle smile, speaking in a measured tone, "The social software developed by Shuyue Company, we plan to implement it on Penguin."

"No," Shen Dong boldly interrupted, speaking seriously, "Mr. Ma should first promote the intelligence of mobile phones. Shuyue’s live broadcast software is indeed good, but without a user base, what good is it?"

As he spoke, Shen Dong gave Kang Yue a look, and once she took out a bank card, he continued, "On Third Brother’s behalf, in addition to bringing capital, I’ve also brought a betting agreement, may I ask if Mr. Ma might be interested?"

"Mr. Ma, please have a look," Kang Yue, like a secretary, respectfully handed over the betting agreement.

After just one page of the agreement, Mr. Ma’s face changed, "You, or should I say Third Brother, is really bold, a hundred million?"

"With a population of 1.3 billion, and a workforce of 230 million in all social strata, these people could all become our customers," Shen Dong smiled confidently.

Seeing Mr. Ma thoughtful, he continued to speak, "The number of smartphone users implies the number of Penguin users, which also signifies the prosperity of online social networking."

"I won’t deny that, but the promotion by Shuyue Company hasn’t been effective."

"That’s because they’re amateurs," Shen Dong said with a brashness, cutting straight to the point, "What if after buying a smartphone, one could make money?"

Kang Yue thought that Shen Dong was still using the same tactics on the Liuqiu people, unaware that Shen Dong was trying the methods of the three giants of the lower-tier market, like what Leyue did.

Shen Dong really made great efforts, speaking seriously, "Let’s not talk about other things, just look at Penguin News. If users can make money while browsing news, reading jokes, novels, or even just walking, how valuable do you think smartphones are?"

"Advertising?" Mr. Ma, with a sharp eye, instantly understood the business opportunity.

His eyes shifted slightly, his head nodding gently, "That might be a great idea, using profit as a lure to create user dependency..."

With an approved starting point, the following conversation became much more cheerful.

Especially since Shen Dong came with money.

Five hundred million plus an order for one hundred million smartphones, Shen Dong exchanged it for five percent of the shares in Penguin Group. It wasn’t the amount he’d hoped for, but Shen Dong was satisfied with this number.

Because Mr. Ma from Penguin promised to give priority to providing services to Huaxu, and there would be a certain degree of resource sharing.

The excitement in Shen Dong’s heart was indescribable; his heartbeat was definitely over 140, and a feeling of dizziness followed one after the other, and he even hoped to have a candlelight dinner with Mr. Ma.

Unfortunately, such a person didn’t have much time; he still had to fly to Purple Country, and after signing the contract, he left the hotel surrounded by bodyguards.

Not long after he left, the waiter brought over a bottle of ’90 Lafite, and a bottle of Parisienne, "Sir, madam, Mr. Ma wishes you a pleasant journey."

Kang Yue and Shen Dong were stunned.

Penguin’s peak market value was three trillion Hong Kong dollars, and five percent of that... was one hundred and fifty billion!

"Okay, thank you," Shen Dong said, nearly shooing away the waiter in his inability to calm down. After that, he locked the door and looked at Kang Yue with burning eyes, "Hit me, am I dreaming...?"

Kang Yue didn’t hit Shen Dong, but instead jumped up like a butterfly and hugged Shen Dong’s neck, offering a passionate kiss...

"How’s it feel, is it real?"

"Stop fooling around," Shen Dong panicked for a moment and pushed Kang Yue away as he ran to the balcony.

Kang Yue giggled, but there was a hint of sadness in her eyes, which quickly turned into joyful steps, twirling around to Shen Dong’s side, "Like a little housewife, a kiss won’t get you pregnant."

"Don’t play with fire!" Shen Dong gave a warning glare.

"Oh?" Kang Yue made a contemptuous sound, approaching step by step like a bandit teasing a young girl, "What if I play with fire?"

"If you keep this up... I... I’ll chicken out, is that okay?" Shen Dong shouted out the most cowardly words with an aggressive tone.

Avoiding Kang Yue’s grasping hands, he quickly changed the subject, "We need to plan. We have to get Prince to ramp up smartphone production; we don’t have much time."

Kang Yue, pouting, waved at Shen Dong’s retreating back. She bent her head to undo two buttons of her shirt and approached him, "I really don’t get it; aren’t you helping to perpetrate evil?"

"Heh, he wishes," Shen Dong would not do thankless work.

He wasn’t sure, but he thought there was a chance, turning his head to look at Kang Yue.
