Chapter 138 Chapter 138 Spending Money Day 138
Liu Yue was trying out the smart shampooing machine when she saw a message from a customer asking if it could be customized.
As the name suggests, this is a machine that automatically washes your hair as soon as you lie down on it.
In fact, this was also recommended by fans in the messages she left - although the public event of giving away the same product for effective recommendation has ended, her old fans will recommend things to her through private messages. If Liu Yue finds it interesting and wants to play it, she will fulfill their wishes.
The person who initially successfully sent the private message would even post it, only to be urged to delete it by other long-time fans. It's fine for everyone to just keep this a secret; it's better to just keep quiet and make a fortune. If she attracts another bunch of weird people, Xinyue might not even be online anymore.
Liu Yue bought two shampooing machines, one for her fans and one for her to experience.
Well, the shampooing function of this machine is quite basic. It's called a shampoo, but it's really just a stream of water. You have to constantly adjust the angle after you lie down, and it's pretty loud.
Most importantly, Liu Yue was skeptical about whether it could actually clean properly. She figured the shampoo machine was just a quick fix; if she wanted to properly wash her hair, she'd still have to rely on manual labor.
The automatic hair dryer that comes with it is not that smart either. Its air outlet can only be fixed in the same position, and the user needs to shake his head and use his hands to fiddle with his hair to ensure even heating. Where is the intelligence in it?
Liu Yue feels that hanging a traditional hair dryer on the wall can also achieve a similar effect, and the angle can be changed at any time by holding it, which is much more flexible and convenient to use.
Liu Yue only tried it for a while before He Zhiyuan moved the hair dryer away and replaced it with Dyson to blow her hair.
He had obviously done some research in this area. In the past, he would get too close, causing her scalp to become hot, but now he uses a curling comb to go with it.
"Take this home and use it." Liu Yue said casually, "I don't need this thing. The nanny washing my hair is much more comfortable than this."
He Zhiyuan didn't bother to be polite with her. In fact, he could wash his hair much faster than this machine, but lying down to wash his hair was more comfortable. Liu Yue thought it was just okay, but in fact, she was used to being treated with more meticulous care.
Liu Yue wrote a review of the shampoo machine and opened the customization picture sent by the customer.
Is this... a phone case shaped like a gun? Are you sure you want to carry this to work every day?
So abstract, Liu Yue likes it very much, what a wonderful mental state.
The more bizarre the things are, the more she wants to try them. Life always needs to be more turbulent to have fun.
She replied to the client that it was no problem, but modeling would take some time.
Liu Yue handed the phone to Sang Yu next to her, who would help her follow up on copyright-related issues.
Liu Yue also said: "I want to make this into a water gun, the kind that you can actually fill with water and spray out water."
I thought it was a gun, but it turned out to be a phone case. I thought it was just a phone case, but it actually can get wet! It's really hard to guard against!
The more she thought about it, the more excited she became. She even felt a little sorry that He Zhiyuan was there and heard this conversation, otherwise he would definitely be her number one target for pranks.
He Zhiyuan smiled helplessly. He helped Liu Yue blow dry her hair and asked about her plans for traveling to Antarctica.
Liu Yue: "I plan to leave in early December. I'll first spend a few days in Chile to acclimate myself. I also have to wait for the right weather window to travel to the Antarctic Circle, because flights don't take off every day and are greatly affected by the weather."
This journey does not involve flying directly to the Pole. Instead, you have to fly to the camp first, adapt to the plateau on the glacier, and receive polar survival training before you can take a sled plane to the Pole.
If she wanted to drive an off-road vehicle across the snow, that would be fine, but it would take a long time. And driving on an endless glacier could easily make people feel extremely lonely, which might not be very good for her mental health.
It's okay for a short experience, but forget about driving for a long time. If Liu Yue wants to visit Antarctica for the second or third time in the future, she can try it. For the first time, it's better to take a plane, which is safer.
Liu Yue also showed He Zhiyuan photos of the camp. They knew there was no way to build the kind of hotels people imagine in Antarctica; they were just scattered cabins. She had booked the entire campsite this time, since she was going to be bringing so many people.
Chefs, bodyguards, doctors, guides, camera teams... In order for Liu Yue to have a comfortable experience when traveling, it is necessary to have so many people around her.
He Zhiyuan had only just discovered how much more involved it was to travel to the South Pole. He really wanted to go, but his US visa was valid for more than six months, allowing him to travel to Chile visa-free. However, he couldn't spare the time.
Such a free and unrestrained life is exclusive to Liu Yue.
"I'll wait for you to come back safely." He said, stroking her hair.
Liu Yue did not notice the sadness in his words because she did not need to distinguish other people's emotions.
She stood up and prepared to try on the custom-made jacket. Although December is summer in Antarctica, the weather there is still cold. How to dress warmly without being bulky became a problem that the assistant team had to worry about.
This trip to Antarctica probably brought the most luggage the team ever had. We had to prepare multiple sets of clothes alone. While we can be careless about the weather when traveling to Antarctica, we always have to consider the unexpected.
They also had to prepare warm clothing and regular medicines, and Liu Yue's favorite foods had to be brought over as much as possible in vacuum or canned form, and they also had to consider how to recycle them after leaving Antarctica...
Liu Yue was also trying out crampons and ice axes. He Zhiyuan thought she wouldn't need them, but she shook her finger and said no.
Now that she’s in Antarctica, she must experience glacier hiking and climbing. Otherwise, wouldn’t all her aerobic training be in vain?
He Zhiyuan felt her eagerness to try, and of course he wouldn't say anything to spoil her fun.
He said, "Could you bring me some souvenirs?"
"No," Liu Yue refused. "We can't take anything away from Antarctica except the garbage we create ourselves."
"According to the Antarctic Convention, not even a stone or a feather can be taken away."
She has received some training and is happy to abide by the rules to protect Antarctica, the last pure land on Earth. No matter where she explores the world, Liu Yue hopes that her footsteps will only bear witness, not destroy.
After understanding the regulations, He Zhiyuan asked, "Can you take a photo for me?"
"What photo?"
"You can see the photo of our chat window on your phone," He Zhiyuan said, "so it can be considered that I went there with you."
That’s fine, Liu Yue nodded and agreed to him.
It turns out that he wanted to find someone to help him with his ID. Lawyer He is quite trendy.
He Zhiyuan hugged her and said, "When are we going to the Arctic next year? I'll coordinate the vacation in advance."
According to Liu Yue's personality, she will definitely continue to explore another extreme.
Going to the North Pole...that would probably have to be during summer vacation.
Liu Yue couldn't imagine what would happen half a year from now. She said, "We'll talk about it when the time comes."
Liu Yue's patience is unpredictable, sometimes lasting for a long time. For example, she persisted in aerobic training for more than half a month in order to reach the South Pole.
For example, her enthusiasm for 3D printers has gradually faded. She is no longer as eager to play with them as she was a few days ago, and she no longer wants to keep twenty printers working endlessly.
Recently, her hobby has turned back to Lego. She just hasn't played with it for a while, but she has collected so many new pieces. She must put them together quickly.
Xiao Fang soon noticed that Xinyue's interest in 3D printing had waned, as evidenced by the fact that the store's merchandise was rarely updated, and the customer service account's response speed to messages had suddenly increased. This indicated that it was no longer Liu Yue herself who was running the online store, but an assistant or a more professional team.
But what's the point of running a store without goods? I guess once this batch of inventory is sold out, the store will close, or we'll have to wait and see what Liu Yue comes up with next time that interests her.
Her roommate received a water gun phone case and had a blast playing with it these past few days. Unfortunately, the store no longer accepts custom orders. She sent the design over again, but customer service just told her to wait, but she waited and waited, but there was no further response.
Xiao Fang had guessed this situation a long time ago, so she told her roommates not to wait any longer.
When the customer service said to wait, they were actually waiting for Xinyue's opinion, but her attention was not on the printer at the moment, so how could she wait for the results?
Xinyue opened an online store purely for fun, not to really make a small profit - and she hasn't made any money yet.
My roommate was very curious: "Then why do you refresh the store every day? You neither buy nor customize."
"I'm waiting." Xiao Fang said.
When asked what she was waiting for, she said she would keep it a secret for now, acting very mysterious.
A few days later, my roommate finally found out.
She saw Xiao Fang opening a particularly large package, which contained a nearly new 3D printer.
She was surprised: "You bought it yourself?"
"No, Xinyue gave it to me," Xiao Fang said. "She was tired of it, and the printer was just taking up space. I asked her if she could sell it for a little bit, and she said she was familiar with me, an old fan, so she just gave it to me."
Roommate: “That’s so easy!”
"That's not easy." Xiao Fang snorted. "With so many fans leaving messages every day, I have to compliment them on point and make them happy. Only then will they have a chance of getting to know me."
Well, this is not easy...
But seeing such a new printer, and seeing that Xinyue also gave Xiaofang so many consumables - these materials are not cheap, and are worth several thousand yuan.
My roommate thought seriously: "Tell me, is it too late for me to become a Xinyue fan now?"
Damn it, she also wanted to provide emotional value to the rich woman! She was better at this than Xiao Fang!
