Chapter 1302: Taijingzhu on Sale

Time flies like a white horse passing by, and in the blink of an eye, several weeks have passed.

The Lunar New Year has passed, and even though spring has arrived, the weather in Shanghai remains chilly. A draft, laced with damp air from the riverbank, drizzles through the alleyways, carrying icy shards with it. It scratches like fine needles on the face, forcing passersby to tighten their scarves even tighter.

The branches of the sycamore tree are still bare, with last year's dead leaves curled up at the tips, swirled by the wind and falling beside the trash can on the street.

Before the Shuijun Shopping Mall opened for business, a long queue had already formed at the entrance, like a long dragon.

A little girl with pigtails and a schoolbag on her back was watching the scene curiously. She asked her mother, who was wearing a down jacket, "Mom, why are they queuing?"

“Wait in line to buy things.”

"Why are you queuing up so early? What are you buying?"

"Tai Jingzhu is the latest invention of the Maximal Laboratory. If you study hard, you can work in the Maximal Laboratory in the future." The middle-aged woman touched the little girl's head and said with a smile.

Today is the day when the Taijing series of products are officially launched.

Although Tai Jinghua is generally not optimistic about the Internet and is criticized by many people, his popularity is really high. After all, black fans are also fans.

Many scalpers saw the business opportunity and started queuing up since last night, just to be the first to grab the Taijing Pearl today.

"It's too cold today."

"Yeah, I almost caught a cold. I don't know what the Taijing Pearl is like, but there are so many people rushing to buy it."

"It's because the Taijingzhu is sold too cheaply this time. The low-end version can be snatched up for 10,000 yuan."

"I'd say it should sell for hundreds of thousands."

…………

The same scene is happening in the Giant Laboratory stores in first-tier cities across the country.

"Hanqing, relax, don't be nervous." In the office, Xia Yu was on the phone with Chi Hanqing, comforting the nervous Chi Hanqing: "You have to have confidence in us. Taijinghua itself is a very powerful combat system. The public's recognition of it is not high now, entirely because Taijinghua is not gorgeous enough. Sooner or later, it will gain recognition as time goes by."

"Well... I have confidence in Taijinghua, but I'm a little nervous. Taijinghua is our hard work." Chi Hanqing replied softly, "The poor response to the last press conference made me very anxious."

"Keep calm." Xia Yu said seriously, "You are now the head of the Giant Laboratory. You must keep calm. If you show any fear, what will your subordinates think?"

"I know." Chi Hanqing heard this and responded, "I was just complaining in front of you. Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. I have to go and stabilize the morale of the troops."

"Come on, Director Chi." Xia Yu also said with a smile: "I'll wait for your good news tonight."

"Xia Guanjun, please don't put too much pressure on a small lab director like me." Chi Hanqing smiled and joked with Xia Yu: "I'm just a poor guy working for you. I hope Tai Jinghua can gain everyone's recognition."

"This is inevitable." Xia Yu's voice was full of confidence: "The Taijing Pearl will definitely sell well. I have asked Eve to prepare a celebration banquet for you."

"Okay." After listening to Xia Yu's words, Chi Hanqing felt much better: "If it's true as you said, that the Taijingzhu sells well, I'll treat you to a meal."

"Is one meal enough?"

"Then what else do you want?" Chi Hanqing said with a smile.

"All is fine." Xia Yu replied with a smile.

"Okay, I won't talk to you anymore." Chi Hanqing's laughter came from the phone: "I have to go work for you and see the sales and response of Tai Jingzhu on the first day."

"come on."

…………

"It's open!"

"The mall is open, hurry up!"

"Hurry up and grab the first Tai Jing Pearl!"

"Family, let's watch the live broadcast to grab the first Taijing Pearl, please pay attention!"

"Don't squeeze me!"

Although netizens have criticized Taijinghua online as a combat power system that is just for the sake of numbers, any discerning person can see that Taijinghua is the combat power system that truly popularizes trainers around the world.

The most important thing is that the price is very affordable.

The low-end version costs only 10,000 yuan. Although this is not a small amount for ordinary people, it is too cheap compared to the Max-Gig bands, Z moves and mega evolutions.

For any trainer with lofty ideals, investing 10,000 yuan in exchange for an immediate increase in combat power is a sure-win deal.

The sales manager and store manager of the Gigantamax Laboratory store also felt their scalps tingling after seeing the crowds flocking in.

"Everyone calm down, line up, and come in one by one in order."

You have to know that although the business of Dynamax Laboratories was very good in the past, due to the high price of the Dynamax wristband, only a very small number of people could afford it.

But Tai Jingzhu is different. Even an ordinary family can afford it at a price of ten thousand!

What's more, even if they don't use this thing, they can still make a small profit by reselling it.

"I'm the first one in line! I want Tai Jing Pearls. I want the first edition, numbered, deluxe limited edition Tai Jing Pearls. I'll take as many as you can get!" The middle-aged man first in line waved his bank card and shouted to the store manager, "I want the Tai Jing Pearl No. 1 from East China!"

"I want to buy the deluxe limited edition Taijingzhu too. No, he can't buy them all, we want some too!" the people behind him shouted.

"Everyone, remain calm," the store manager's deep voice boomed. "Everyone, you need to provide your ID card to purchase Tai Jing Pearls. Also, all Tai Jing Pearls are subject to purchase limits. Each person is limited to one deluxe limited edition Tai Jing Pearl, three regular editions, and five low-end editions!"

"Just one?! Big brother, give me another one! I've been queuing here since last night. It's so cold, I've caught a cold..."

"Sir, I'm sorry, this is our rule. Every Taijing Pearl needs to be linked to an ID card before it can be sold. Even if I want to sell it to you or even give it to you as a gift, I can't do it." The store manager patiently explained to the middle-aged man.

"Fuck, can you use your ID card to buy it for me?" the middle-aged man said loudly to the store manager.

"Ahem, I'm sorry, our internal employees' ID cards cannot be used for purchases. The purchasing channel you used is different." The store manager responded with a polite smile on his face.

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, what's wrong with you?!" The middle-aged man was a little crazy. He had been waiting in line for a whole night, but he could only buy this little.

"Are you going to buy it or not? If not, move aside and I'll buy it!" The man behind him couldn't help but speak up when he saw the middle-aged man making a fuss.

"I'll buy it! Why wouldn't I? Just as you said, I'll buy as much as I can. Oh, and remember to give me the East China Region Number 1."

"I'm sorry, sir. Numbers 1-1000 are not for sale. They can only be obtained through a lottery. The only number you can buy is 1001."

"What?" the middle-aged man roared in dissatisfaction.

"Sir, do you want to buy it?"

The middle-aged man said with a gloomy face: "Buy, buy, buy, I'll buy it!"
