May 9.

Yanjing.

"Mom, I got a girlfriend......"

"The consumption in the big city is a little higher, and I want to ask for more living expenses!"

"It's not much, you can call me five thousand......"

"No, no, you don't have to come here yourself......"

“……”

Jiang Kailong hung up the phone.

Looking at the old-fashioned Nokia phone in his hand, how he looked at it, how he felt it was an eyesore.

Every time he called home, he would hide in the bathroom, afraid to let others know that he was using an old Nokia brick machine.

University......

What a strange place!

Jiang Kailong, who came from a remote rural area, originally thought that he would be addicted to it for the rest of his life, and then live a university life without contention.

But......

I don't know when it started, his heart began to become inexplicably inferior.

Maybe one day, I learned that a piece of clothing from Qi Haifeng, the head of the dormitory, cost 2,000 yuan, or maybe, knowing that the students around me are basically using new smartphones? Maybe it's because I saw that in the dormitory, all the roommates began to have girlfriends, and even the nerd Lin Cheng had girls with him......

Jiang Kailong, who was immersed in it, naturally didn't care.

However, the pleasure he gets from it is naturally short-lived, and when he comes out of it and enters this reality, he will inevitably have a huge sense of disparity in his heart.

He is not a rich second generation, he has no special abilities, he is not smart, and he is not handsome, he is just a complete ordinary person.

Even after a semester passed, except for a few people in the dormitory, the rest of the classmates didn't even know who he was.

It's a sadness.

Night.

Deep.

There was a long queue at the entrance of Apple's flagship store in Yanjing Joy City.

Jiang Kailong is also in line......

He saw an advertisement for Apple 4 by chance, and when he saw the commercial, Apple 4 pierced his heart like a beam of light.

Then, he heard Qi Haifeng, the rich second-generation in the dormitory, "showing off" his Apple 4 in front of him, the agility when sliding to unlock, the clear camera, and the full range of functions......

Everything made him stunned.

Mobile phone, it can still be so awesome!

For the first time, a longing appeared in his heart, especially when Qi Haifeng told the classmates in the dormitory in a regretful tone that ordinary people would not be able to grab the Apple 4 mobile phone at all......

His heart suddenly fluttered!

Ordinary people can't grab it, so I'm ......

The less a person has, the more he wants!

Coming from the countryside, he wanted to own this mobile phone for the first time, as if this mobile phone could make him superior to others, even if it was not inferior, it could also make him equal to anyone in the school.

The delicate silhouette, powerful functions, and top-notch European and American technology......

Everything made his heart pound!

Thereupon......

On the evening of May 9, he took a sick leave and left his dormitory to go to the Joy City Apple flagship store in Yanjing.

When he came, he was constantly on the phone with his family.

I'm afraid that I don't have enough money in my card to buy an Apple 4.

When he arrived at the Apple flagship store, he was shocked to find that the people who bought the Apple 4 were crowded, and the entire mall was crowded.

The most exaggerated thing is that he even saw a buddy come over with a quilt and a tent, and he was actually lying in the line.

"Sorry, it's out of stock now, and it won't be available until tomorrow......"

"Then they are in line......"

"They're waiting for tomorrow!"

"Oh my God, crazy, wait for tomorrow?"

"Yes!"

Apple's flagship store has long been sold out.

Jiang Kailong looked at the long dragon like crazy, and when he asked, he found that the people in the queue who were lined up were actually ready to stay up all night and wait until tomorrow to grab the goods!

Lose your marbles!

Lose your marbles!

Jiang Kailong ran a lot of shopping malls in a row, and found that no matter what the shopping mall was, there was basically a long queue.

He took a deep breath.

"This mobile phone costs more than 4,000, and now it has been fried to more than 10,000!"

"Crazy!"

"I also think it's crazy, but as long as you can get the goods and shout here with your mobile phone, you can earn 6,000 yuan immediately, believe it or not?"

"What? Someone's gun arrived? Where? 10,000 yuan, I want it! ”

“……”

Jiang Kailong heard the conversation.

Then his heart thumped, and an unspeakable vanity rose in his heart again.

He began to line up, fantasizing about how he could grab a phone and what to do......

Waiting is often the most tiring, in the past, when waiting, he would pass the time, but obviously now he has no such mind at all.

He kept looking at the bank cards.

The balance in the bank card has always been 1,000 yuan, and it has never changed.

He suddenly felt a little angry, he called his family, and his father told him that there was no bank in his hometown, and he had to ride a motorcycle to the town bank to withdraw money, but when the motorcycle arrived, the bank was already closed, and they didn't need the ATM......

When he heard this, his emotions suddenly got out of control, and he even wanted to scold his parents on the phone for being so stupid, he only knew how to farm all his life, so he couldn't be more advanced and learn something useful?

But he endured it in the end.

"Baby, are you in a hurry over there?"

"It's urgent."

"Then let's go to our relatives and borrow some money first?"

"Okay, but can I send money?"

"I can't send it at night!"

"What about online money transfers?"

"I can't do it......"

"Mom, I'm really in a hurry, I don't lie to you, I'm really in a hurry......"

"Then, then don't worry, Mom will find a way, Mom will find a way, Mom must have a way!"

“……”

He finally didn't scold, just lined up and waited.

Little by little, time passed.

He kept looking at the bank card text message on his phone, but the remittance information in the bank card has never changed.

He waited until three o'clock in the morning.

The SMS finally prompted that 6,000 yuan had arrived!

He breathed a sigh of relief!

At this moment, there was a noise at the front of the line, and immediately after, a truck drove up.

It seemed to be the delivery vehicle of the Apple mobile phone, because of the long queue, Jiang Kailong couldn't see what was going on in front of him, but when a few people grabbed the mobile phone and were excitedly surrounded by some people to buy it, he saw something clearly.

That's the new Apple 4!

The person who grabbed the mobile phone, under Jiang Kailong's nose, sold the Apple 4 in an instant, earning more than 6,000 yuan.

And the people who bought the mobile phone excitedly held the mobile phone and made calls everywhere......

The riot in front of the team seems to be getting bigger and bigger, it seems that there is some conflict between users and the staff of the flagship store, and then the flagship store announced that it will wait until nine o'clock tomorrow to officially open its doors to sell Apple 4, and the Apple mobile phone must not be bought and sold halfway!

Those few Apple mobile phones that were sold seemed to be bought by the clerk himself, and then made a lot of money!

Jiang Kailong waited until eight o'clock in the morning.

His head was a little groggy, and he called the nerd Lin Cheng and asked Lin Cheng to help him ask for a leave of absence and not go to class today.

At nine o'clock, when the flagship store opened, suddenly the whole mall exploded, and there was a noise ahead, and the queue that had been stagnant all night finally began to move forward.

But after only a little more than an hour, the team quickly came to a halt.

"Sold out?"

"What, the goods are sold out so quickly?"

"Stock is so limited?"

"Then I'm not in vain?"

“……”

Jiang Kailong looked at the team that stopped in front of him in a daze, so shocked that he didn't know what to say.

A tall young man in front of him turned his head: "Someone needs to queue for two days to buy goods, and you are only waiting for the first day!" ”

"That ......"

"So, do you know why I brought a quilt and snacks?"

“？？？”

……………………………………

When a mobile phone is not only a communication tool, but also represents "vanity", "nobility" and "luxury......

Then, it set off a stormy wave.

Midday.

Zhang Sheng saw a video of an interview from Yanjing.

In the news, Zhang Sheng saw an acquaintance.

"When did you start queuing?"

"I've been ...... since last night"

"Then do you still have to queue now?"

"Keep platoon, wait for tomorrow!"

"Maybe you won't be able to buy it tomorrow?"

"Then the day after tomorrow ......"

"Where's your dinner?"

"I asked someone to buy a pack of instant noodles......"

Zhang Sheng saw Jiang Kailong munching on instant noodles while being interviewed by reporters.

So far, there has never been a mobile phone in the history of China that can make users so crazy when it is released......

Naturally, the reporters understood that this was a historic event, so they naturally chased after the heat.

After Zhang Sheng saw Jiang Kailong, he felt a trace of sadness.

But......

Zhang Sheng didn't feel crazy.

In the original world, a high school student, for an Apple 4, actually sold his kidneys, and after a short period of vanity and worship, he was paralyzed in bed for the rest of his life.

Zhang Sheng briefly recovered from his memories......

Then, he walked out of the hotel and walked on the streets of Yangcheng.

When he walked to the mobile phone store, he saw a long queue of people.

"My Apple 4 is going to change hands, brand new and original, who wants it!"

"I want, I want!"

"How much do you add?"

"Three thousand!"

"I won't sell three thousand!"

"Five thousand, five thousand, sell it to me, I'll add five thousand!"

"Six thousand!"

"Okay, just six thousand!"

“……”

From time to time in the crowd, you can hear bursts of excited, as if crazy.

Zhang Sheng stopped and watched for a while, looking at the expressions of the young men and women in line, feeling the penetration of "capital values".

Capital is "making gods" again.

Evening.

He returned to the hotel.

And then......

He received a phone call.

The call was from Xu Bowen......

"Mr. Zhang! I have asked a group of people to come to the hotel conference room, where are you? ”

"I'm downstairs, come up right now!"

"Good!"
