8: Brother Peng, who is about to be pissed off

Moreover, because Peng Ge was also a peer in the mobile phone business, people naturally suspected that he was jumping out to slander his competitor's phones as refurbished ones simply because he couldn't sell his own.

Facing the accusations of hundreds of passersby at this moment, Peng Ge was truly furious and anxious; his face was flushed with the frustration of being wronged.

"The Dawn Mobile Phone really is a refurbished one, why won't these guys believe it? It's driving me crazy!"

Facing the crowd's accusations, Peng Ge was about to die of anger, and what made him even angrier was that he couldn't find evidence at the moment to prove that the Dawn Mobile Phone was refurbished.

After all, the quality of this second batch of refurbished Dawn Mobile Phones had undergone a complete transformation compared to yesterday; the quality had indeed improved significantly.

If he hadn't personally dismantled a Dawn Mobile Phone yesterday and known it was refurbished, he absolutely wouldn't have been able to tell today that it was a refurbished phone!

Furthermore, even if he brought out the phone from yesterday, no one would believe him because the quality of yesterday's phone was clearly different from today's.

Even if he brought out the Dawn Mobile Phone from yesterday now, people would expose the fact that he was trying to slander someone on the spot.

After all, although the casings of the two phones were the same, the difference in quality was clearly visible. Bringing a worse phone to slander someone out of thin air—was he treating everyone's brains as if they were made of water?

Therefore, facing the accusations of the crowd, Peng Ge was at a loss for what to do. In the end, he could only curse helplessly:

"You stupid guys, I'll see how you cry when your phones stop working in a month or two."

After saying this, Peng Ge slunk away and returned to his Peng Ge Mobile Phone Shop, his expression extremely foul.

Seeing this, Lin Chen's two apprentices, Huang Hua and Chen Dong, quietly breathed a sigh of relief. No one knew better than they did what kind of goods the Dawn Mobile Phone really was.

After all, these Dawn Mobile Phones were assembled by their own hands. Although they were only accomplices, they had indeed played a part in the production of these refurbished phones.

In response, Lin Chen remained expressionless, then helplessly spread his hands in front of everyone and said:

"Alright, let's continue selling the phones. This time we took out 43 phones from the factory; it's safe to say there aren't many left, so hurry if you want to buy one."

Hearing Lin Chen's words, a potential consumer at the scene immediately asked curiously:

"Your phones are so good, so even if that bastard Huang He ran off, you can totally continue production."

Hearing the consumer's question, Huang Hua and Chen Dong exchanged a look, curiosity appearing in their eyes as they wondered how Lin Chen would explain this.

Lin Chen spread his hands in response and said helplessly:

"We are considering this gentleman's suggestion, but due to funding issues, we don't have the money to build a factory, so whether it can be done is still unknown."

In response, the potential consumer who asked the question smiled and said:

"That's great. If it really works out in the future, with the quality of your phones, you might be able to make a name for yourselves, and who knows, maybe you can even sell the phones nationwide in the future."

Hearing this, other consumers also smiled and agreed:

"Not bad, not bad. The quality of these Dawn Mobile Phones is so good; it would be a real pity if they were gone just like that. I feel that with such good quality, you might really be able to make it nationwide."

"I think there's a good chance."

"That's right, a very good chance." ...

The people at the scene immediately began to discuss, and it seemed they had a good impression of the Dawn Mobile Phone.

Regarding this, Lin Chen was truly very ashamed. Others trusted him so much, yet he responded to their trust with refurbished phones; this really made his conscience uneasy.

However, although his conscience was uneasy, there was nothing he could do to change anything right now.

After all, given his solitary situation, if he wanted to quickly acquire a large amount of capital to build his own small copycat factory, achieve technological catch-up with foreign countries, break the Wassenaar Arrangement, and ultimately realize the dream of national prosperity and common wealth,

his first pot of gold was destined to be earned quickly through means that weren't too unscrupulous, so he had to let this first batch of consumers suffer for now.

At this moment, Lin Chen already had a goal in his heart, and that goal was to design his own mobile phone as soon as possible and begin the path to legitimacy.

... On the other side.

"Interesting."

On the outskirts of the crowd, Ke Hanliang, who was watching people take out money to frantically buy the Dawn Mobile Phone, had a hint of surprise in his eyes.

He hadn't expected that young man to unexpectedly turn the crisis around, and the quality of the Dawn Mobile Phone also made him marvel.

Because in the past dozen years or so, he had truly never seen any mobile phone with such strong quality as this Dawn Mobile Phone.

Even Nokia, known for being drop-resistant, didn't have such strong drop resistance. That young man had clearly used so much force, yet it didn't break, and he even dropped it 5 times in a row!

This fully proved that the quality of the Dawn Mobile Phone was indeed extraordinary. If this Dawn Mobile Phone were truly given a chance to develop, perhaps it could really enter the national market.

By then, even if it couldn't compete with major domestic brands like Boda Mobile and TLC, it might be able to compare sales with the Amoi mobile phone that had just launched this year and become a nationwide hit!

Thinking of this, Ke Hanliang's eyes gleamed with an inexplicable light. He then waved his hand, and soon two inconspicuous people hidden in the crowd walked out from two meters away.

These two people were dressed exactly like ordinary people, and they were trying their best to disguise themselves as passersby. If one didn't pay attention, one truly wouldn't know that these two were Ke Hanliang's bodyguards.

Ke Hanliang didn't like having two bodyguards in suits following him around, like those businessmen in Hong Kong movies.

Instead, he liked to wander the streets and alleys wearing ordinary clothes like a common citizen, because he was a middleman in the electronic components and chip sector, and he needed to grasp the market trends and directions.

Therefore, what he liked most was wandering the streets of Huaqiangbei, personally capturing the most critical first-hand commercial information trends of the current market, wanting to see what kind of business could be done.

And this information about potential business opportunities wasn't accurate if he only relied on reports from his company employees; or rather, the employees' perspectives were different from his own position, so he liked to go out for a stroll when he had nothing to do.

But if he wanted to make an incognito visit, it was naturally impossible to bring two bodyguards in suits, so he ordered those two bodyguards to wear ordinary clothes and disguise themselves as passersby to protect him from the shadows.

As for why they needed to protect him, there was no helping it; Huaqiangbei was a place where people of all kinds mixed, and a large number of outsiders came in every day.

Therefore, it was the most complicated area in the entire southern part of Daxia. If he were really kidnapped or beaten up by someone, it would be very difficult to find someone to retaliate against.
