Chapter 319: Diary of a Dunce’s Counterattack 316 (14) Four Updates
The General Manager was still busy in a meeting, leaving only the secretary to answer the call.
Without hesitation, the Qin Family Manager opened up the internet, and before he could even search for the Ye Family, the top headline caught his attention.
[E Brand Phones Sweep the Globe! The phone that shock the National Academy of Sciences—are you really not considering it?]
He immediately clicked open the sales platform and saw at a glance that the E-phone had already taken up the top ten spots in the pre-sale rankings!
He then found the in-stock list, where the 10,000 phones unexpectedly had sold out within a day and a half.
The Qin Family Manager scrolled through the comments below, where some people had posted the holographic projections.
Out of 10,000 buyers, there were over 9,000 comments, almost each one a lengthy rave.
Not a single bad review!
And the pre-orders of 100,000 had reached over 50,000, and that was in less than a day.
The Manager finally realized, belatedly, that the E Brand Phone had exploded in popularity!
After seeing that the release of Juzi phones had flopped, he also discovered that the E-phone was likely the next phone to lead the new era of global smartphones!
Given the sales volume and the reactions of buyers, it was only a matter of time before the E-phone caught fire.
"I should have paid attention yesterday!" After picking up the phone, the General Manager chastised himself, "I shouldn’t have underestimated them for wanting to enter the mobile industry just because the Ye and Ning families were involved."
Now all one had to do was open the internet and it was inundated with news about the E Brand Phone jointly created by the Ye and Ning families.
Even the national research teams were hoping to lead the way with this technology.
Experts who hadn’t managed to buy the phones in time were willing to pay high prices to buy them off those who had, just for research purposes.
The Manager saw a post by a very famous scholar from A University—[The E-phone is an important sign of the new era. I have new expectations for our country’s future. No more talk, I’m off to line up for the phone!]
Almost everyone who knew about the E-phone had no complaints about it.
"We must get in touch with the Ye Family," the General Manager commanded directly, "This technology used in movies would absolutely amaze everyone. You go find Ning Tao, let him help you contact the Ye Family!"
The Qin Manager was of the same mind.
But now the E Brand Phone was already known to various companies.
Just about every tech company wanted to partner with the Ye Family!
Getting in touch with Ye Shaohua to discuss business was easier said than done at this point. The Qin Manager could only attempt to contact Ye Shaohua through Ning Tao.
"I have to get in touch with Miss Ye," Ning Tao wasn’t the least surprised by the Qin Manager’s call, but he didn’t give any immediate assurance, "She’s been quite busy lately, so I’m not sure if she’ll take your call."
"That’s fine, just conveying the message will suffice." The Qin Manager’s attitude was very humble.
After Ning Tao hung up, the Qin Manager sat by his phone, lacking any desire to process company documents and instead arranged for someone to purchase an E-phone for research.
The launch price of the E-phone was just over four thousand.
The price had already been driven up to twelve thousand when they bought it from someone else!
And it was still rising online.
The Qin Manager sighed, then started to examine the E-phone with cup in hand, eager to see if the phone really was as awe-inspiring as netizens claimed.
When he saw the cup holographically projected pristine onto the sofa across from him, he was left dumbfounded.
A subordinate, walking in and seeing a steaming cup appear out of nowhere, was so startled they jumped, "Qin... Manager Qin... how can the cup be suspended in the air? Did you... did you place it there while the air wasn’t paying attention?"
Despite no shadow on the floor and the projection being too real, the Holographic projection was astoundingly lifelike.
Manager Qin waved his hand, "That’s a holographic projection, come in."
Despite what the manager said, the subordinate still went around the cup.
As Manager Qin looked at the projected cup, he banged his head against his desk, wishing he could go back to the day those from the Ye family had approached him. If he had known then, he wouldn’t have hesitated at all.

Ye Shaohua had just taught a decoding session to the tech department and was preparing to leave for school.
The national college entrance examination was fast approaching, and the people from the Ye and Ning families were persuading her to rest for a few days.
Although they believed the exams would be simple for Ye Shaohua, it was still an important matter.
"Manager Qin wants to find me?" Ye Shaohua hadn’t paid attention to what was happening online since the pre-sale of the E-phone, so she was surprised when Ning Tao described it, "Is the holographic projection really that amazing?"
She had anticipated that the emergence of holographic projections would shock the average person.
But she hadn’t expected it to impact people to this extent.
By the following night, all 100,000 pre-orders had been snapped up.
"My young lady, do you realize," Ning Tao was defeated by Ye Shaohua’s surprised expression, "that experts from abroad and at home are researching this new technology of yours? You’re really..."
Thinking back to their first meeting when Ye Shaohua said "3D images are impressive," he had mocked her at the time.
Every time Ning Tao remembered, he almost wished he could bury himself in the ground.
"I got it, have Manager Qin call me." Ye Shaohua nodded.
Manager Qin hadn’t done much that night, just clutched his phone waiting for Ye Shaohua’s contact. When he finally received her call, he almost knocked over the cup on his desk.
"Miss Ye, about the overseas agency rights for the E-phone..." Manager Qin politely inquired.
Ye Shaohua chuckled, "This morning, the sales platform has already signed a contract with me. Sorry about that, Manager Qin."
Although he had anticipated it to some extent, Qin Manager still felt a profound disappointment when he heard the news that Ye Shaohua had given the agency rights to someone else!
He could imagine how advantageous it would be to have a partnership with the Ye Family in the field of technology.
Even the Qin Family could take the lead overseas!
Manager Qin’s regret was intense.
"Miss Ye, if you need anything, feel free to contact us," he continued to speak cordially.
Ye Shaohua laughed lightly, "Sure."

Meanwhile, due to the comparison with the E-phone, Juzi phones were facing direct stagnation in sales within Hua Country. People might not be lacking money, but with a finer option available, how could they settle for Juzi phones that were more expensive yet inferior to the E-phone?
Gao Heng was so devastated by this outcome that he called Dai Si to question if there was a problem with their technology.
Dai Si, now devoid of his usual politeness, accused across the phone, "Talking about sales? With holographic technology setting the precedent, did you think your 3D technology would have any sales? This E-phone is clearly the holographic projection technology of Y, and she had previously agreed to provide the technology to Juzi, but now her phone is unreachable! She sent a message, saying it was because of you that she withdrew the license. Now we’ve lost so much money. Are you happy now?!"
