Chapter 37 – Third Product Application
Liao Province, Jinzhou City, inside an internet cafe located close to Sixth High…
Chen Yu exited Bilibili’s platform after his video finished playing.
Regarding the Quantum Reading Gla.s.ses’s review, overall, he felt that its quality was pa.s.sable. The part where he memorized and recited books was especially good.
While the video wasn’t as exciting as the Uranium-235 Nuclear Energy Laboratory’s review video, this was due to the product’s characteristics. It had nothing to do with his reviewing standards.
In fact, in Chen Yu’s opinion, his eloquence, adaptability, and scripting had all seen growth.
He opened WeChat and tapped into his chat interface with the Transdimensional Marketing staff. After pondering for a brief moment, he started typing rapidly.
[Chen Yu: “How is the quality of the latest video?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “It’s very excellent. Reviewing these gla.s.ses isn’t an easy task. The fact that you are able to achieve such promotional effects is already wonderful, Mr. Chen. According to our monitoring results, Bilibili’s editors have already manually recommended this video. You should see rapid growth in the video’s statistics soon.”]
[Chen Yu: “Is it possible for me to break 50,000 subscribers?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “That will be difficult to accomplish with just two episodes.”]
[Chen Yu: “Alright. Have you thought of what product to apply for me for the third episode?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “Our team is currently researching this. Do you have any suggestions, Mr. Chen? Do you have a type of product you wish to review?”]
Chen Yu frowned involuntarily as he started pondering this question.
[Chen Yu: “Can you get me a product that’s a little more mainstream?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “For example?”]
[Chen Yu: “Smartphones, computers, and the like, but with extremely powerful performance. Something that can make the viewers’ jaws drop in shock. Can you apply for something like that for me?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “We will try, but we cannot guarantee that it will be a phone or computer.”]
[Chen Yu: “Nice! I’ll be troubling you with that, then!”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “It is my duty to serve you, Mr. Chen.”]
[Chen Yu: “Sure, sure.”]
“You must work hard!” Chen Yu muttered, pressing his palms together in prayer. He then put away his phone and wore the quantum gla.s.ses again to continue studying the middle school textbook before him.
However, after flipping through a few pages, Chen Yu suddenly removed the quantum gla.s.ses as he came to realize something.
An internet cafe is a public place. If I read books while wearing these gla.s.ses, won’t I attract other people’s attention very easily? What if someone here just so happens to have watched my video? Won’t my ident.i.ty be uncovered immediately?
At this point, Chen Yu’s complexion started darkening. He hurriedly stored the Quantum Reading Gla.s.ses into his bag and sneaked a glance at the internet cafe’s surveillance cameras. He then stood up to leave the cafe.
Internet cafes usually deleted their surveillance data periodically to free up s.p.a.ce. An internet cafe with poor finances would generally refresh their data once every few days. However, internet cafes that were willing to splurge might store their data for two weeks or even an entire month!
Argh! I can’t believe I made such a low-level mistake!
After walking out of the internet cafe, Chen Yu could not help scratching his head irritably as he looked at the hasty pa.s.sersby and vehicles before him. He then took out his phone, and his thumbs were soon rapidly tapping on the screen.
[Chen Yu: “You there?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “Mr. Chen, I am always here. If you have any questions, you can ask straightaway. No need to ask if I am in or not.”]
[Chen Yu: “Oh, understood. I have something I wish to ask.”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “Go ahead.”]
[Chen Yu: “I used the Quantum Reading Gla.s.ses in an internet cafe just now, and the cafe had surveillance cameras. Those cameras must’ve recorded my entry. I’m afraid this will lead to my ident.i.ty getting exposed. Do you have a way to help me delete the data of those cameras?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “Mr. Chen, without permission, we cannot delete public records. This is against the law. We cannot help you with this.”]
[Chen Yu: “…”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “Mr. Chen, we really cannot help you with this.”]
[Chen Yu: “Then, let me ask you a second question.”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “Please ask away.”]
[Chen Yu: “How greatly will your team be affected if our contract gets dissolved?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “We’ll be greatly affected!”]
[Chen Yu: “Will you be affected on a personal level as well?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “Of course! My work performance will be damaged. Moreover, it will take me time to find another suitable partner. The company might even fire me as a result.”]
[Chen Yu: “Wonderful, then.”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “?”]
[Chen Yu: “Let’s return to the first question. If you can’t help me delete those records, I won’t dare continue making videos. After all, in the off chance that the government comes knocking on my front door, I’ll be in great danger. Hence, let’s temporarily halt our partnership here.”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “…Mr. Chen, please don’t joke around.”]
[Chen Yu: “I’m not joking. You simply don’t understand how wonderful my country’s interrogation system is.”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “Very well, you win. I will help you delete those surveillance records.”]
[Chen Yu: “Didn’t you say casually deleting public records is illegal?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “Casually deleting public records is naturally against the law. However, the Earth Alliance’s Privacy Law also states that citizens who do not wish to have themselves be photographed or recorded in a video are allowed to erase their figures from those records.”]
[Chen Yu: “So, you’re saying that the video will still exist, but my existence inside the video will be removed?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “That is correct.”]
[Chen Yu: “Wonderful. Please do that for me.”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “Mr. Chen, please send me the internet cafe’s detailed address. Our team will wipe out all records of you from the cafe’s hardware.”]
After raising his phone, Chen Yu took a picture of the internet cafe and sent it over.
[Chen Yu: “I don’t know the detailed address. Will this picture work?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “Yes.”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “The deletion is complete. You can rest a.s.sured now, Mr. Chen.”]
[Chen Yu: “That fast? You’re not tricking me, right?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “We are living in different s.p.a.ce-times. We spent over 20 minutes sweeping through all the recorded data from the internet cafe. However, we only need to time the message we send you to arrive a second after our last conversation when notifying you. Our team operates on integrity. We will not deceive our collaborators. I repeat! We operate on integrity! We will not deceive our collaborators!”]
Upon seeing this message, Chen Yu could not help a little embarra.s.sment. He could clearly sense the contempt in the other party’s words.
[Chen Yu: “The problem this time is my fault. I’ll be careful in the future. I owe you a favor for today.”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “(＾＿＾)”]
[Chen Yu: “What do you like? I’ll give you some local souvenirs. I heard that natural water is a precious resource on your side? How about I splurge a little and send you a bucket of tap water?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “…”]
