Having lived two lives, Lu Feng had handled many things, but he had absolutely no experience with this kind of situation. As for telling Jiang Xiaoyan, Lu Feng felt that she wouldn't have any good solutions other than beating Duo Duo up.
As children gradually enter puberty, simply resorting to physical punishment is definitely not enough.
Lu Feng thought about it but couldn't come up with a solution, so he drove to Huaqiangbei. After parking his car, he browsed through the various shops. Compared to a few years ago, there were now far more electronic products in Huaqiangbei, with a wide variety of strange and unusual items.
Some of the creative ideas even amazed Lu Feng. One shop sold pagers and cell phones bundled together. Lu Feng looked at the combination in front of him, with a cell phone connected to a pager by a cable.
"Boss, this is the most popular thing in the world right now. It's already all over Europe, America and Oceania. Making phone calls with your mobile phone is expensive, but pagers are cheap. This thing is called a 'one-card'. As long as you activate your mobile phone number, you can receive pagers. Use pagers when you have nothing to do, and use the phone when you have an emergency."
As the shopkeeper spoke, he took out a leather case that was slung over his belt, one for a pager and the other for a cell phone. It looked quite impressive. Lu Feng knew that this thing was just for show and wanted to take it back to study it. However, the shopkeeper didn't sell a single set; the minimum wholesale price was five hundred sets.
"This whole set costs six thousand yuan wholesale. You can sell it for ten thousand, and it will definitely sell well. If you can't sell it, you can return it to me," the boss said confidently.
Lu Feng listened with a smile but said nothing. This was clearly a one-off deal; they probably wanted to find someone else later.
Lu Feng didn't agree, but the other party kept pushing the product, even demonstrating it. After watching for a while, Lu Feng said, "I have one question for you, what's the purpose of the cable connecting these two things?"
"It's a single unit, and both can use phone cards!"
"So this is a data cable? Then tell me, what kind of chip is installed in this phone? It can even compile data from a pager. Which company makes this product? Can you take it apart and let me see?" Lu Feng asked, staring at her.
The woman immediately ignored Lu Feng, put the items back in the display case, and sat down to eat sunflower seeds.
Seeing her like this, Lu Feng smiled and left without saying anything. He went up to the second floor and browsed some of the counters. Jiafeng's chips were still relatively few, basically monopolized by a few companies. Most of these people had their own small factories to assemble mobile phones, and then sold them with Jiaxun, Motorola, and Nokia brands.
Furthermore, Lu Feng also discovered TSMC's products, although the quantity was relatively small. The most sold products were motherboards. Currently, the voltage in China is unstable and the technology does not meet the requirements, so it is common for mobile phone motherboards to burn out. The next most common product was the screen.
Lu Feng visited twenty motherboard stores, and eight of them carried Jiafeng motherboards, which were priced in the mid-range. Several stores showed Lu Feng Motorola motherboards, but after looking through them for a while, Lu Feng realized they were still Jiafeng products.
After wandering around upstairs and downstairs twice, Lu Feng discovered that Jiafeng's chip market was still too small. Those who could get chips all had connections. The first thing these people thought of after getting the chips was to monopolize the market, then open their own factories to produce OEM mobile phones, and then sell them to the north.
If things continue to develop this way, they will gain nothing but damage to Jiaxun Mobile's reputation.
After gaining a basic understanding of the market, Lu Feng left Huaqiangbei and returned home, still feeling worried. Duoduo was already watching TV, and Jiang Xiaoyan had also returned.
"Where did you go?" Jiang Xiaoyan asked casually.
"I went to Huaqiangbei for a stroll and checked out the market." Lu Feng's gaze occasionally lingered on Duo Duo before he sat down and looked at her, saying, "You've grown into a young lady!"
Duoduo sensed that something was wrong with Lu Feng and felt uneasy, as if her secret had been discovered. She lowered her head and remained silent.
"My flight is the day after tomorrow. You stay home and keep an eye on her. Let her go to school by herself; she's a grown woman now," Jiang Xiaoyan said, picking up the remote to change the channel.
Even as he went to bed, Lu Feng still hadn't figured out how to talk about this, mainly because it was his daughter, not his son, and he didn't know how to bring it up.
Lu Feng tossed and turned in bed. Jiang Xiaoyan opened her eyes and said, "Why are you tossing and turning instead of sleeping?"
"I have something on my mind."
"Don't think about those things," Jiang Xiaoyan said with a hint of dissatisfaction. "When you go out to play in the future, can you find a place that's a little further away? Or go to a high-end place, so you don't get caught. I don't care, we're divorced anyway, but what if the child finds out?"
"What?" Lu Feng asked, puzzled.
"You got arrested by the police while you were in Hong Kong, and you've already forgotten about it after just a few days?" Jiang Xiaoyan said irritably.
"It's not what you think, it's a scheme..."
"Yes, yes, yes, you're full of schemes. You use schemes with everyone. Keep scheming, keep plotting, but it's not a good look for you if you go away." Jiang Xiaoyan said irritably, "Go to sleep!"
After being scolded by her, Lu Feng couldn't even think about his worries anymore, so he simply covered his head and went to sleep.
The next morning, Jiang Xiaoyan got up early and went to the company. Lu Feng didn't wake up until 10 a.m., ate a few bites, and saw Duo Duo watching TV downstairs.
Lu Feng went downstairs and noticed that she was wearing a skirt and had her feet on the coffee table. He glanced around and said, "You're a grown woman now. You should sit properly. Put your feet down!"
"Have your great-aunt cook lunch, I might have to go to the company."
Duo Duo nodded, her eyes fixed on the television.
"Ahem, things are different now, you're all grown up. How many people are in your class?" Lu Feng asked.
Forty-eight!
"How many boys?"
"Twenty!" Duoduo turned around and glanced at Lu Feng, feeling somewhat puzzled, wondering why her father was suddenly concerned about these things.
