149 Heyme’s Sales Crisis

Western Empire, in the video conference.

Cook, Pi Chayi, and Satia’s expressions were extremely solemn.

“The brainwave input technology is real!”

“Not only has the Divine Dragon Software developed brainwave input for words, but it has also developed the brainwave operation of computers.”

“This is scary!”

“We have to get our hands on the brainwave coding technology and the brainwave receiver.”

Then, the three of them quickly entered the official website of the Divine Dragon Software Company, wanting to buy a set of brainwave receivers.

“As long as we can get a set of brainwave receivers, we can analyze any technology!”

“Even if Divine Dragon Software had encrypted its brainwave-related technology, we will still be able to reverse engineer it using the fastest supercomputers in the world.” The Western Empire had activated the world’s first E-level supercomputer. Its computing ability was number one in the world, and was 100 times that of the Divine Mighty Supercomputer of the Divine Dragon Country.

“The Divine Dragon Software is really a fool. How could they place such an advanced technical equipment like the brainwave receiver for sale on the internet. Although it is only for sale to citizens of the Divine Dragon Country, their personal information is everywhere on the internet.”

Soon, the three of them found the personal information of a few Divine Dragon Country citizens and tried to register an account.

A pop-up window appeared.

[Currently, our company only provides services to citizens of Divine Dragon Country.]

“F*ck, that damned easterner!”

The three of them were still unwilling to give up. They used technical means to obtain a network address in the Divine Dragon Country and used this address to register again.

The pop-up window appeared again.

[Currently, our company only provides services to citizens of Divine Dragon Country.]

“Sh*t, why is this happening!” Satia cursed loudly. Then, he quickly found the company’s cybersecurity expert to assist with the registration.

Then, the results were the same. All the methods were detected by Divine Dragon Software and they couldn’t register at all.

Cook and Pi Chayi also did the same thing, but it was all in vain.

This outcome made them feel extremely frustrated.

In the past, no matter where the people of the Western Empire went, they were special citizens and would receive special treatment. In the past, they were the only ones who prohibited citizens of Divine Dragon Country from certain things.

And now, Divine Dragon Software had changed the rules of the game.

The Divine Dragon Software Company had managed to lock out even the most advanced equipment.

“The cybersecurity technology of the Divine Dragon Software Company is beyond my expectations!” Satia said indignantly.

“However, Li Chengqian is too simple minded. Although we can’t register or buy from the official mall, we have employees who are citizens of Divine Dragon Country, and they are also based there.”

“We will ask our employee to buy it and ship it to the Western Empire. This way we can circumvent Li Chengqian’s blockage.”

“Although our company doesn’t have any employees in Divine Dragon Country, I can ask my business partner to procure the brainwave receiver.” Pi Chayi’s face was filled with confidence.

“Actually, as long as you’re willing to pay, you can buy anything.” Cook was even more confident.

“As long as we get the equipment, the technology related to brainwaves will be ours!”

…

On Divine Dragon’s official website, the number of reservations for brainwave receivers exceeded 5 million.

After the sale started, the buying spree only lasted three seconds.

In three seconds, all 10,000 sets of brainwave receivers were sold out!

“F*ck, are you guys human? Ten thousand brainwave receivers are gone in three seconds!”

“This is 100,000 yuan per set of equipment, not one yuan per set. Why are there so many people buying it?”

“If you didn’t manage to buy one, offer a premium of 10,000 yuan and ask for a resale!”

“I just want to buy a set of brainwave receivers to torture the noobs. Willing to buy from a reseller.”

“Douyin Corporation is purchasing a large number of brainwave receivers. They are offering up to an additional 50,000 yuan per set!”

“A large-scale acquisition by an online company. Offering a premium of 50,000 yuan!”

“90% game acquisition…”

One million Long Yao Generation 3 mobile phones were sold out in 30 seconds.

All the Huawei Breakthrough Generation 1 mobile phones were sold out in 30 seconds.

When the online sales was in a frenzy, the phones at the Divine Dragon Software Company rang off the hook.

Everyone only had one question. When would the brainwave receivers be sold again?

Can they order in advance?

People were willing to pay in advance and come back to pick up the goods after the Divine Dragon Software Company had produced them.

However, because all the employees of the Divine Dragon Software Company had already switched to using brainwave receivers, they were extremely efficient and orderly.

…

In the CEO’s office of Heyme Corporation, after watching the press conference, Lei Che was serious and stony faced as he listened to the reports from the various departments.

“President Lei, we didn’t manage to buy any brainwave receivers.” Secretary Xiaoli was the first to speak. When Li Chengqian said at the press conference that 10,000 brainwave receivers would be released, Lei Che had arranged for the entire company to register an account with Divine Dragon Software so as to participate in the buying frenzy.

Lei Che nodded, still stony faced. Then, he looked at the sales department. “President Tian, how’s the situation in the sales department?”

“President, the situation is not good!” Tian Dengbing from the sales department looked very concerned.

Compared to the popularity of the Long Yao Generation 3 mobile phone, the sales of Heyme phones were very bad.

“Our Heyme 14 mobile phone has been released for half a month. The total sales volume is only 70,000 units! The sales volume is less than one-tenth of last year’s.” In the past, when a flagship model was released, the sales volume was at least 800,000 units for the first 2 weeks.

“We released an entry-level mobile phone this year, the White Mi 80. We stocked 5 million units. The total sales to date is only 40,000 units! The sales is less than 1% of last year’s sales.” Half a month after the release of the White Mi 70 last year, the sales were 4.8 million units!

“Other than mobile phones, our computers, televisions, and smart home appliances are all affected. The sales are less than one-tenth of the previous year’s.”

“President, the current situation is very serious. This is the biggest crisis since the Heyme Group was established. If this situation lasts for a year, our company will risk bankruptcy.” Tian Dengbing’s voice was low.

“After our investigation, we discovered that the biggest problem at the moment is that our phones are not installed with the Divine Dragon System! As long as the Divine Dragon System is installed, we should be able to reverse the current low sales.” Tian Dengbing thought for a moment and decided to state the user’s sentiments.

This was because on Heyme’s forum, and on the Heyme System forum, there were already many user posts requesting the installation of the Divine Dragon System.

However, the core assets of the Heyme Corporation had always been the Heyme System!

The Heyme system raked in 110 billion yuan of ad revenue from ads placed on its system.

If they abandoned the Heyme system, the ad revenue of 100 billion yuan a year would instantly be gone.

Wang Tianle, who was in charge of the Heyme system, was immediately upset by what Tian Dengbing said.

“No! Our mobile phones and other hardware equipment are not profitable at all. It is the Heyme system that has been making money for us! It’s the built-in ads in the Heyme System! If we switch to the Divine Dragon System, according to the strict review mechanism of the Divine Dragon System, our built-in ad module will be eliminated.”

“Without the support of the ad module, we won’t have any income! Without income, the corporation will go bankrupt!”

“President Wang, the ad you mentioned is a matter of the future. If we don’t use the Divine Dragon System now, we will immediately face bankruptcy.” Tian Dengbing retorted bluntly.

“Alright, stop arguing.” Lei Che rubbed the space between his eyebrows. He stopped the two of them from arguing. One option was to go bankrupt now, and the other was to go bankrupt in the future.

Currently, Heyme Corporation had no option to choose at all!

“You haven’t fully understood the situation yet.”

“The problem now is not whether we want to use the Divine Dragon System.”

“It’s a question of whether Li Chengqian will let us use it or not!”

Lei Che’s face was bitter.
