Seeing that Pei Zhi had finally finished her phone call, Pei Wang got up and poured her a glass of water.
"Someone ordered 20,000 phones from you at once?"
"Um."
Pei Wang asked doubtfully, "Do the phones your company produces really sell that well?"
Pei Zhi raised an eyebrow. "What, you didn't buy a single phone from your sister's company to support them?"
Pei Wang chuckled sheepishly, "I'd like to support you, but..."
Pei Wang scratched his head. "I was on a business trip out of town when your phone was first sold."
"When I got back, I wanted to buy it, but when I went to several stores, they all said it was out of stock and that I had to pay to wait in line to pre-order."
Pei Wang shrugged. "Tell me, aren't they treating me like a complete idiot? What kind of phone do you have to pay for first and wait in line to get it? Is it gold?"
Pei Zhi chuckled, took out her spare phone from her pocket, and handed it to Pei Wang.
"You haven't tried this phone yet?"
“Yes,” Pei Wang said, also getting excited. “I said I’d be willing to pre-order with money, but you had to let me see what it looked like first. And then he said they were out of stock?”
"I wanted to ask a few more questions, but he impatiently said, 'If you're not going to buy, then get out of the way and don't block my business.'"
"It's outrageous that so many people are willing to pay in advance to pre-order the phone. Don't you think they have too much money?"
"Aren't you afraid that this person will run off with the money?"
After Pei Wang finished speaking, he began to try out the phone in his hand.
Pei Wang held his phone, "It doesn't seem to be much different from mine?"
"It's just that your phone is white, and the screen looks a bit bigger than mine."
Pei Wang squeezed his phone, looking at it repeatedly. "What's that little dot on it?"
Pei Zhi moved directly to Pei Wang's side and pressed a button.
Pei Zhi gently lifted Pei Wang's arm: "Look at your phone now."
"Holy crap?" Pei Wang exclaimed in shock when he saw the image on his phone.
How did you end up on my phone?
Pei Zhi then instructed Pei Wang, "Wait until I strike a pose, then you press this button."
Pei Zhi gave a peace sign to the camera, and Pei Wang pressed the shutter button.
Then, Pei Wang looked at Pei Zhi on the phone screen, and then looked at Pei Zhi again.
Pei Wang's eyes widened, clearly in disbelief.
"Do you understand now? That's why even though the phones I produce are out of stock, people are lining up and paying to buy them?"
Pei Wang nodded blankly, "We can take photos? Does that mean we won't need to go to a photo studio anymore?"
Pei Wang exclaimed, "And the picture you took is so clear!"
Even Pei Zhi's dark circles are visible on this phone screen.
“Initially, we produced 110,000-pixel cameras, which were a bit blurry, but still usable.”
"Later, just before the phone was about to go on sale, it broke through again, this time with a resolution of 300,000 pixels."
300,000 pixels is naturally insignificant compared to later generations.
In this day and age, that's already quite remarkable.
Pei Wang played with his phone with great interest, taking pictures of the restaurant and the dishes.
"If your friend also uses our phone, you can send the photos you take to his phone, and he can see where you are and what you ate today."
"You can do that?" Pei Wang exclaimed, praising the performance as if he were a country bumpkin.
Pei Wang thought for a moment, "If my distributors also use this phone, I can just take pictures of the clothes produced in the factory and send them to them, so I won't have to run around anymore, right?"
Pei Zhi nodded, "That's how it is theoretically."
"That's amazing." Pei Wang held his phone, his eyes filled with undisguised admiration.
Remembering her purpose for today, Pei Zhi picked up a bag from under her feet and handed it to Pei Wang.
"This is the money you lent me back then, and I'm returning it to you now."
Pei Wang originally wanted to say that there was no rush to return it.
But seeing that Pei Zhi has produced such a powerful phone, she must be quite wealthy now.
Pei Wang took the bag and noticed that the weight was incorrect.
Pei Wang has been in business for so many years, he knows his stuff.
"Did you put too much money in there? Is 200,000 really that heavy?"
"You lent me 200,000 yuan, and in addition to the principal of 200,000 yuan, there is also 100,000 yuan in interest."
"How much?" Pei Wang's voice cracked, and he covered his mouth. "Ten thousand in interest?"
Pei Wang was startled and grimaced, "Even if I were a loan shark, I wouldn't charge this much interest! What are you doing?"
Pei Wang said that he absolutely could not accept the interest of 100,000.
"I'm telling you, all you need to do is give me back my principal of 200,000. As for the interest of 100,000, I wouldn't accept it even if you killed me."
Pei Zhi had long known that Pei Wang would be like this.
"First of all, I'll give you 100,000 in interest as a way of thanking you for lending me the money."
“Although we are siblings, when I said I wanted to make cell phones, none of you knew anything about them, but you were willing to lend them to me directly. For that, I have to thank you.”
“I borrow 100,000 from you, and you give me an extra 100,000. Are you worried that I'm not well-off? Even this sibling relationship needs to be settled clearly.”
"Also, take this money and replace the fake chain around your neck with a real one. You're a boss now, don't be so stingy with yourself."
"From now on, the burden of the family will not fall on your shoulders alone; your younger sister will share it with you."
Pei Zhi's words brought tears to Pei Wang's eyes, a grown man.
Pei Wang sniffed and choked out, "You brat, why are you saying all this?"
Pei Zhi patted Pei Wang on the shoulder, "I know you've had a tough time these past few years."
"You have to shoulder the heavy burden of the family all by yourself, it's very hard."
When Pei Zhi left, Pei Wang didn't have time to grieve and had to focus on managing the business.
My older brother and sister-in-law have already come to the city. If their business doesn't go well, the whole family will starve.
Later, Pei Wang got married and had children, which put even more pressure on him.
Pei Wang is rich, but he is reluctant to spend money on himself.
I always think about saving some money for a rainy day.
Pei Wang tugged at the chain around his neck. "The person who sold it to me said that this chain looks exactly like the real thing, and no one can tell the difference."
Pei Wang has worn it countless times, and not a single person has ever said that it's fake.
How could Pei Zhi tell at a glance that it was a fake chain?
“My phone contains metal parts. I’ve encountered many dealers who sold me fake ones before. After looking at it a few times, I can recognize it at a glance.”
Pei Wang fiddled with his phone. "You mean there's gold inside this phone?"
You could say that.
"Goodness gracious," Pei Wang murmured, "So, you're not losing money selling this phone at this price, are you?"
