An Rou and Shen Yue both covered their faces at the same time, they really couldn't bear to look, it was too childish.
The effect was quite obvious; after sending "I wish you happiness," the other person didn't say anything more.
"Miss, look, I've taken care of it for you, so easy, eat up."
"Ring ring..."
Lin Chen's phone rang. It was a video chat request from Wang Sicong. Just as Lin Chen was about to hang up, An Rou snatched it away and answered.
"Lin Chen, what are you doing... Eh? Why is it An Rou? Never mind, bye-bye."
Wang Sicong promptly hung up the video call, but Lin Chen and the other two had already seen the footage from Wang Sicong's end.
Sitting on a beach chair, drinking beer, with a swimming pool behind me, several pretty girls in bikinis are playing and having fun in the pool.
Lin Chen almost drooled while watching. If An Rou and Shen Yue hadn't been there, he would have run over immediately. But now, well, if I can't have the poolside hot pot, I'll just have Haidilao instead.
After taking a big bite of sliced beef, Lin Chen said he wasn't envious of Wang Sicong at all. o(╥﹏╥)o
"Lin Chen, what kind of girl do you like?" Shen Yue suddenly asked.
"Of course, it's fair skin, beautiful face, and long legs."
"Am I one?"
"Of course, Miss, you're the school beauty of our high school, be confident."
"If you met a girl like that, would you date her?"
"Dating? No, no, no, even dating dogs don't date. What's so great about dating?"
"So you like girls like that, don't you?"
"I do like it, but liking someone doesn't necessarily mean you have to be in a relationship."
"Hmph, what a scumbag!"
"Miss, I didn't even pursue him, so how am I a scumbag?"
"If you like someone but don't pursue them, aren't you just a jerk?"
Ah... Lin Chen opened his mouth wide, not knowing what to say. No, if you like someone, just go after them? I like so many people. Weren't all those behind Wang Sicong just now fair-skinned, beautiful, and long-legged?
"Ahem, let's skip this topic. Why are three single people discussing dating?"
After finishing their meal at Haidilao, Lin Chen drove Shen Yue back to school first, and then returned to 1901 with An Rou.
As Shen Yue watched the car drive away, she pouted and muttered, "Idiot, pig, fool, big idiot..."
As the days passed, it finally arrived on the evening of the 17th. The last wave of red envelopes had passed, and the netizen who sacrificed Lin Chen's happiness did not win the 888 grand prize. It is unknown whether Lin Chen manipulated things behind the scenes.
Finally, at 11:59 PM on June 17th, Lin Chen, An Rou, and Zhang Yiming sat in the conference room, staring at the television screen. There were four transaction figures on the screen: the top three were the transaction figures from Taobao, JD.com, and Pinduoduo, and the bottom one was the total transaction figure.
"Countdown, 5...4...3...2...1, time's up!"
"Huh? Why isn't it responding? Is it stuck?"
An Rou was speechless, looking at Lin Chen as if he were an idiot: "Payment takes time, doesn't it? You think it's as simple as just clicking a button?"
"Oh, look, it moved."
The screen showed that Taobao's transaction volume grew the fastest, followed by JD.com, while Pinduoduo's growth was the slowest.
Thirty minutes later, Taobao's transaction volume had reached 50 million, JD.com's had exceeded 30 million, and Pinduoduo's had only reached 15 million. But Lin Chen was actually quite satisfied. After all, how long had Pinduoduo been established? Previously, Ouku.com had almost been driven to the brink of collapse by JD.com. Now, being able to run a promotion with the two big brothers was already a win in itself.
An hour later, Taobao's transaction volume had exceeded 100 million yuan, JD.com's exceeded 70 million yuan, and Pinduoduo's exceeded 50 million yuan.
Subsequently, the transaction volume gradually slowed down.
"Anrou, immediately post a Weibo to celebrate the Huasuan.com 618 Mid-Year Mobile Shopping Festival, where the transaction volume exceeded 200 million in one hour!"
"OK."
An Rou immediately grabbed her laptop and started working on it. Soon, the official Weibo account of Huasuan.com updated the battle report.
"Warmly celebrate the Huasuan.com 618 Mid-Year Mobile Shopping Festival! Total transaction volume has exceeded 200 million! Thank you for everyone's support! [Battle Report Image]"
Those shopping platform giants that haven't developed mobile apps are also watching the battle unfold in this largest mobile shopping festival in history, launched by Huasuan.com, the strongest intermediary in online shopping festivals, in conjunction with two major domestic online shopping giants.
When they saw the one-hour sales report released by Huasuan.com, their eyes nearly popped out of their sockets; they all thought they were seeing things.
You're kidding me! You said you're kidding me!! Two hundred million in one hour!!!
This is a mobile shopping festival! You can only place an order and enjoy the discount on a smartphone. What is the penetration rate of smartphones? Probably less than 40%, right? It's only because Xiaomi phones are cheap, much cheaper than traditional Nokia and Motorola phones, that the penetration rate has increased so much. Otherwise, it would probably be less than 20%.
Just like that, it broke 200 million in one hour, which is absolutely terrifying!
Even Jack Ma and Liu Qiangdong didn't expect the transaction volume of this mobile phone shopping festival to be so high. According to their initial estimate, it would be good if it exceeded 50 million.
The happiest person must be Huang Zheng. Goodness, although his previous company, Ouku.com, was not as good as JD.com, it was still quite successful. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to sell it for 15 million. But Ouku.com's annual transaction volume was only 60 million.
And now? It exceeded 50 million in just one hour, and it's still rising. At this rate, it's only a matter of two or three hours before it surpasses 60 million.
Although these midnight flash sales rely mainly on the golden hour after midnight, there are always people who are indecisive or who suddenly get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom and then place an order while scrolling through their phones.
Currently, Huasuan.com's 618 Mid-Year Mobile Shopping Festival is a great success, leaving other online shopping platforms speechless and feeling the pain.
Zhang Wenyi hadn't slept, waiting for the sales report from Huasuan.com. When she saw the figure of 200 million in one hour, she immediately made a video call to her brother in the US.
It was morning on America's side. Amazon CEO Smith had just arrived at his office, poured himself a cup of coffee, and taken his first sip when he received a call from Zhang Wenyi.
"Hey, Elaine, long time no see. It must be nighttime in China now, right? What brings you to call me?"
"Smith, I have something to tell you, but don't be too surprised."
"Hehe, don't worry, I'm the president of Amazon, the world's largest e-commerce platform. I've seen all kinds of storms."
