77: Chapter 77 Passionate Sparring with a Korean Man
However, since this was the World Mobile Communication Congress,
no matter how broad Samsung's business scope was,
the Samsung Group had only brought mobile communication-related technical products this time.
It had to be said that a large company's exhibition space was truly grand;
at the very least, the quantity of products was far greater than those of the smaller companies.
At this moment, there were few people in the exhibition hall.
Some Samsung staff were still busy,
and no one noticed Bai Jingqing when he entered,
so he just wandered around inside.
While passing through the mobile phone exhibition area,
Bai Jingqing saw a phone with a somewhat strange shape.
He leaned down to take a closer look;
there was a small sign below briefly introducing the phone,
on which the name of the exhibit was written:
Samsung Galaxy Note Round.
Bai Jingqing had some impression of this phone;
it should be the predecessor of the Curved screen,
or could barely be called a Curved screen.
He didn't expect Samsung to bring this to the competition.
Looking at the phone's design made him want to laugh a little,
so he stopped and picked it up to play with it in his hands.
One side was a flat screen, the other a Curved screen;
it looked as weird as could be.
Most designs in the field pursued symmetry;
symmetrical designs were acceptable to most people,
whereas with this kind of asymmetrical design,
some people simply wouldn't be able to accept it.
For instance, Bai Jingqing
found it hard to appreciate,
and the more he looked at it, the stranger it seemed.
However, just as he was handling the Galaxy Note Round,
a sudden shout rang out: "Shibal!
Put that down!
Can you afford to pay if you break it?
Do you know how expensive this phone is?"
Bai Jingqing was startled,
and quickly looked back,
discovering a man from Stick Country
who was currently berating him angrily.
He was speaking Korean,
which Bai Jingqing didn't quite understand.
But judging by his tone,
he knew the man certainly wasn't saying anything nice.
This man from Stick Country was accompanied by a female translator,
who helped translate the man's words.
Bai Jingqing frowned;
he had no desire to deal with him at all,
so he put the phone down,
turned around, and gave him the middle finger.
"Shibal!"
Bai Jingqing's action undoubtedly made the man from Stick Country even more furious.
"Shibal!
You actually dare to flip me off!
Dragon Country people have such poor manners!
I'd heard rumors long ago,
and seeing it today, it's exactly as they say!"
Although the female translator made the man's words slightly more tactful,
Bai Jingqing knew from his intense tone
that he must be using very foul language.
Besides, the pronunciation of "Shibal"
was something he had heard of before.
Bai Jingqing said, "Your mother's a bitch!
Since it's on display here,
everyone has the right to view it.
What the hell are you barking about?
And have you even been to our Dragon Country?
To say our people have poor manners?
We have great manners for friendly people,
but our manners are only poor toward unfriendly people like you!
Got it?"
The female translator quickly translated this to the man from Stick Country.
The man frowned,
gave a mocking laugh,
and then said sourly, "Oh please!
Give it a rest!
Even though this is an exhibition area
and we welcome anyone to look,
we specifically don't welcome Dragon Country people!
Because Dragon Country people only know how to plagiarize!
They only know how to steal our technology!
If we let you look,
won't you just go back and prepare to make a design exactly like ours?
Of course, the things you make are all trash,
they can't compare to ours at all!
I just don't want to see the designs of our Great Samsung Empire on your pile of junk!"
At this time, another Dragon Country person who had also come to visit entered,
and that person asked curiously, "How do you know he's from Dragon Country?"
The female translator likewise translated this to the man from Stick Country.
The man said, "Dragon Country people all have slanted eyes
and look mean and petty!
I can tell at a single glance!
Are you a Dragon Country person too?"
He said this while pointing at the other Dragon Country person who had just asked him the question.
When the female translator translated this sentence,
Bai Jingqing could no longer hold back.
"Fuck your mother!
You're just a dog of the Eagle Country, aren't you?
And you're here barking?
Eating swill has really gotten to your head!
Me, stealing your technology?
Would I even bother to steal your technology?
You piece of work,
acting all high and mighty with me.
Fuck eighteen generations of your ancestors!
Fuck your forebears!
Actually,
to have me fuck you,
you aren't even qualified!
I'll let my family dog go fuck eighteen generations of your ancestors!"
This time, without even needing the female translator's help,
the man from Stick Country understood that Bai Jingqing was cursing at him,
so he began cursing back.
However, with one cursing in Chinese
and the other in Korean,
although neither understood the other,
neither was willing to lose ground in terms of momentum,
frantically 'greeting' each other's families.
The female translator was truly in a difficult position;
looking at one,
then the other,
she didn't know which sentence to start translating,
and in fact, she couldn't keep up with the translation at all.
While the two were passionately trading insults,
someone walked in,
surrounded by a large crowd of people
who were chattering incessantly.
"Chairman Xue, give me two minutes,
let me explain the concept of our product!"
"Chairman Xue, believe me,
this product of ours will definitely be a big hit!"
...
This person was none other than Xue Haixin.
The large crowd surrounding him were owners of other small companies,
all hoping to pitch to Xue Haixin,
begging him to invest in them or acquire their small companies.
Xue Haixin ignored them completely,
pushing straight forward
until he reached the Stick Country exhibition area.
He had come here on official business to discuss matters with the President of the Stick Country's Samsung Group.
However, as soon as he entered, he heard several choice pieces of Chinese profanity
and saw the man from Stick Country also outputting insults frantically.
"President Choi, what's wrong?
Why are you so angry?"
With the arrival of a newcomer,
the shouting match between Bai Jingqing and the man from Stick Country finally stopped.
But when Bai Jingqing saw that the newcomer was Xue Haixin,
his brow immediately furrowed.
And when Xue Haixin saw that Bai Jingqing was actually here,
he couldn't help but mock him: "Oh?
Isn't this Little Boss Bai?
Is your business so big now?
You've already started talking business with the President of the Samsung Group?
Really, any trashy company dares to attend this kind of congress now.
If you don't see your own position clearly,
you should just make some knock-off phones to earn a bit of money and be done with it.
To think of winning an award at this kind of world-class congress,
isn't that just nonsense?
Besides, coming here to show our Dragon Country's knock-off phones to the whole world,
isn't that just losing face globally?
As a Dragon Country person,
I truly feel ashamed of you."
