Chapter 82

PS. Here's today's update, and while I'm at it, I'll promote the 515 Fan Festival on Qidian. Everyone has 8 votes, and you get Qidian coins for voting, so I humbly request your support and appreciation!

Ye Qing was truly flabbergasted; it turned out that even an iPhone could be overwhelmed by a barrage of pop-up messages.

However, the final order volume of 237 units was clear to Ye Qing.

What did 237 units mean?

A transaction amount of over 11.8 million yuan, with a net profit of at least 10 million yuan.

As long as this batch of ergonomic chairs was sold, Ye Qing could raise the funds to buy a 50-ton electric arc furnace and a 10,000-ton press.

But why did the ergonomic chairs suddenly become so popular?

At 50,000 yuan each, this was the price of a low-end car. Who would buy such a chair if they weren't white-collar workers, executives, or high-income professional computer users?

Ye Qing hurried to the computer and logged into the chat tool.

A series of message notifications appeared, and Ye Qing double-clicked, but the computer took a long time to respond.

Most of these messages were asking how much endorsement fees Ye Qing had given.

Messages kept popping up, so Ye Qing simply closed the chat tool and opened his store's website to see what kind of positive reviews had made the ergonomic chairs as popular as cabbage.

The first positive review was posted by Chang Yu Chang, with very ordinary photography skills. But...

His introduction was extraordinary.

A short, thousand-word illustrated introduction vividly and humorously described the chair's functions, making Ye Qing feel an urge to click and buy.

The second positive review was posted by August Eagle, with equally brilliant writing, and a comparison with his previous Herman Miller ergonomic chair in the pictures.

In his description, the Herman Miller product was simply garbage, a world apart from the quartz clock and the Donghuang Bell.

Ye Qing couldn't wait to scroll down, more excited than when he used to chase novels during school.

Ye Qing was thoroughly impressed by these users; their positive reviews were all incredibly captivating, making people want to buy the chairs.

These people must be professional writers, but just from the introductions, they managed to attract hundreds of people to inquire in such a short time.

Ye Qing tried searching for their usernames on Weibo.

The mystery was solved; these popular online writers mostly posted pictures on their Weibo accounts, saying they had bought a super magical ergonomic chair, which was a godsend for desk work.

Weibo can post videos, and these buyers had minds that broke the boundaries, programming various new and unique functions based on custom actions.

Among all the videos, August Eagle's was the most outrageous. He held a large teddy bear in his arms, making the ergonomic chair carry him in various exaggerated movements, like a sprint or a snake-like twist.

The comments below were flooded, almost all asking where the chair was bought.

Ye Qing was completely stunned by a series of pleasant surprises. Even though he had expected the ergonomic chairs to be popular, he never dreamed they would become so hot in just a few days.

Damn, damn, damn~

Ye Qing gave each of these buyers who helped promote the ergonomic chairs a 5,888 yuan cashback.

After sending the cashback, Ye Qing rushed to the production workshop, telling the monsters to stop what they were doing and focus on making the ergonomic chairs.

The exterior work also needed to be done immediately, and having the monsters do it would be a waste of time.

Time was money. After assigning the production tasks, Ye Qing immediately jumped into the Lagonda's driver's seat and roared out of the factory.

Ye Qing had already asked his father to help find workers skilled in sofa upholstery, but it was clear that a few workers wouldn't be enough.

He called his father and asked him to help recruit ten more experienced workers from the labor center under the park management committee. Then he called Xu Xiaohu to ask what he was doing.

Xu Xiaohu said he was learning to drive and excitedly mentioned that there were many pretty girls at the driving school, all there to learn during the summer break.

"Stop learning for now and help me with something," Ye Qing told him not to wander around and said he would be there in twenty minutes.

Xu Xiaohu had already planned to work at his aunt's factory during the summer, so he happily agreed when he heard Ye Qing needed help.

After hanging up, Xu Xiaohu went to his instructor to take a leave, saying his uncle would come to pick him up to run an errand.

The driving school was a loose teaching institution, and many students with cars at home just went through the motions, so the instructors were happy if they didn't show up for class.

Xu Xiaohu was very popular, but only among the girls.

He was fair-skinned, handsome, and tall. Whenever he came, all the girls in the group, regardless of whether they had something to do, would crowd around him.

Even a girl from a well-off family, hearing that Xu Xiaohu was from out of town and staying at his uncle's house, shyly offered to rent him a fully furnished three-bedroom apartment in a high-end neighborhood for just 500 yuan a year...

Naturally, all the men in the group banded together to ostracize Xu Xiaohu.

Xu Xiaohu was handsome and had a good temper, but his only flaw was his somewhat outdated clothing. These men would often mock him about his clothes and background.

When Xu Xiaohu mentioned his uncle coming, these men joked that his uncle must be having a hard time, taking care of a half-grown boy at his age.

Xu Xiaohu still smiled and ignored them.

Being handsome and attracting jealousy from men was normal.

Seeing Xu Xiaohu not responding, these men got even more interested and started teasing him about his uncle.

Someone laughed and said they would help Xu Xiaohu find a job to ease his uncle's burden.

Another asked how his uncle would come to pick him up.

Xu Xiaohu smiled and said his uncle would probably drive, but in a minivan.

...

In just fifteen minutes, the Lagonda roared into the Jinma Driving School, stopping elegantly in front of a group of young men and women.

The prominent Aston Martin logo and the distinctive engine sound of a supercar made the driving school students exclaim in surprise, asking who it was.

Ye Qing opened the door and got out, looking around at the young men and women.

"Uncle, Uncle, I'm here!" The handsome Xu Xiaohu squeezed through the crowd, waving at Ye Qing.

Ye Qing gestured for him to get in the car.

Without saying a word, Ye Qing had already successfully attracted the attention of everyone present.

A man's confidence is often a woman's poison, and the Lagonda, shining brilliantly in the sunlight, was a poison to both men and women.

As the Lagonda made a beautiful drift and roared out of the driving school, the practice field was filled with sour and resentful voices.

What minivan, this is clearly an Aston Martin.

These men sourly said that Xu Xiaohu was too good at pretending, wearing cheap clothes to win the sympathy of these shallow women.

Next time, I'll dress like that too!

With your looks, even a dragon robe wouldn't help.

[The 515 Fan Festival is coming up, and I hope to continue to make it to the 515 Red Packet List. On May 15th, the red packet rain will reward readers and promote the work. Even a small amount is love, and I will definitely update well!]
