Chapter 641 Founding Duke, Pillar of State, and Chancellor

Didn't Youmi advertise that it had prepared 30 units of stock?

Sold out so quickly?
Yang Wen, president of CBN, couldn't understand it.

In fact, Yumi phones have a stock of 30 units, but they are sold both online and offline.

It turns out that through some leaders making requests, Gome, Suning, Yongle, and Dazhong, as distributors, were obligated to distribute 12 mobile phones (10 Youmi phones and 2 Youplus phones) out of personal relationships.

As a result, only 12 Youmi units and 6 Youmi Plus units were actually put online, distributed across three channels: JD.com, Taobao, and the Youmi official website.

After the press conference began, the product was also put on sale online simultaneously, and it sold out instantly.

Even at this point, the press conference was still ongoing.

To put it simply, before Gege's network of connections could even get going, the goods were already gone.

Around 4 p.m., Chen Zhe received the message. He was initially a little surprised, but he quickly understood how Lei Jun felt when he witnessed Xiaomi's sales miracle.

Joy, shock, and a touch of bewilderment at being caught off guard.

Looking back, it's understandable. Youmi initially launched a massive advertising campaign, touting itself as "China's first Android phone," while Xuexi.com combined resources from Chinese university students and parents, and they also hired online trolls to stir up trouble...

It's really hard for it not to become popular.

Before the joy lasted more than two minutes, You Hongtao, the deputy general manager of Youmi Electronics, came to report: "The head of Taobao's marketing department is urging us to hurry up and stock up, and the Youmi official website's customer service hotline has been overwhelmed with calls."

Chen stared wide-eyed, looking utterly helpless, as if he couldn't even pick up all the money on the ground. In the end, he could only sigh and say, "I have no choice but to open the pre-sale registration service on the website first."

Even if Foxconn were to continue production now, it would still take at least another two weeks to receive the goods.

Deputy Factory Director You knew this was true, but after hesitating for a moment, he still reminded him, "Boss, um... judging by this trend, Gome and Suning will be urging us to deliver the goods the day after tomorrow, or at most the day after that..."

"I know I know."

Chen said with frustration, "Old You, give me some time, I'll figure something out."

No sooner had You Hongtao left than Zhang Guangfeng came over, saying that the banquet at the Guangzhou Restaurant for tonight was ready.

This retrospective event brought together most of the prominent media outlets in China. According to industry norms, more discerning companies would naturally cover the costs of accommodation and buffet meals.

For those who want to be even more particular, in addition to providing meals and accommodation, they also give each of them a red envelope containing 1000 yuan.

For those who are particularly particular, the buffet is changed to a set meal at a high-end hotel, with the company's head personally attending to toast and get acquainted with everyone, making these media representatives feel respected.

There may not be immediate benefits, but at least they will be able to "give way" to companies associated with the retrospective system in their future writings.

"Take these people over there first."

Chen instructed, "No need to wait for me to start the banquet. I'll go over later to offer a few toasts."

After Zhang Guangfeng left, Chen asked his secretary to block other visitors and took the time to call Yi Baoyu.

After hosting the press conference, Gege simply left without even bothering to say goodbye to Chen Zhe. She was incredibly arrogant.

"Hello, Ms. Yi."

As always, Chen greeted them politely first.

"what's up?"

Yi Baoyu's voice wasn't cold or aloof, but it still maintained a condescending, commanding tone.

"You said yesterday that you would come to tonight's victory celebration banquet..."

Chen invited him with a smile.

Actually, Yi Baoyu didn't say she would participate last night; it was just that when Chen invited them to have a late-night snack, Yi Baoyu declined.

"No, we've already gone back."

Gege refused decisively, without any psychological burden whatsoever.

Chen Zhe did not know Yi Baoyu's address in Guangzhou, but he seemed to have grasped the princess's personality traits.

So even after being rejected, Director Chen wasn't angry, annoyed, or worried; instead, he patiently offered flattery:

"Ms. Yi, the success of this product launch is inseparable from your hosting style."

"Your identity, so deeply ingrained in your very being, inadvertently lends the product a high-end image, and these reporters are very curious about the identity of our presenters."

"I know Ms. Yi certainly doesn't care about their attitude, but if you simply meet with them and exchange a few words, and this event, which will be recorded in the history of China's electronics industry development, comes to a perfect end, then whatever you do in the future will have been perfectly prepared."

……

It must be said that Director Chen would have been a treacherous minister skilled in manipulating power in ancient times.

He understood Yi's needs all too well, and he was also highly emotionally intelligent, had a good temper, and was extremely good at flattering and whispering secrets.

Gege did indeed have the desire to "make a name for herself and revitalize her lineage's reputation within the family," and to surpass her older brothers and sisters who had taken family resources but failed to achieve anything. So after hanging up the phone, Yi Baoyu directly told the female guard who was also her part-time driver, "Wait a bit before going back to the compound; let's go to the Guangzhou Restaurant first."

The "compound" was either the provincial military district compound or the provincial leadership committee's family compound, but it was already quite commonplace for Yi Baoyu.

Aunt Liu, in the passenger seat, asked, "Why are we going to Guangzhou Restaurant?"

"At the celebration banquet for the retrospective, Chen asked me to make an appearance."

"That's what Gege said naturally."

According to Yi Baoyu's logic, it was indeed Chen who was "begging" her.

Aunt Liu nodded, and said carefully, "Minister Yi is also very concerned about the situation here..."

This demonstrates a good sense of tact in speaking, changing Yi Boxiang's "inquiry" to "concern".

"He said that since you were the presenter at the phone launch event, it means that the Yi family has officially joined forces with Su Hui."

Aunt Liu said with a smile, "However, Minister Yi appreciates President Chen very much. He also thinks that Xiaoyu, your entry point this time is very good. It has opened up channels for the family in the Internet industry. If there are any gossips, he will help to deal with them."

"Well……"

After pondering for a while, Yi Baoyu said seriously, "During this period, I have indeed learned about the industrial distribution of the Tracing System. Apart from [Reply], it is also an industry leader in other aspects. It is indeed worth our family protecting it."

Aunt Liu opened her mouth.

She originally wanted to correct him, but Minister Yi always meant "cooperation," not "protection from the wind and rain."

But when I looked in the rearview mirror, I saw Yi Baoyu with her long legs crossed, casually scrolling through her Youmi phone, looking all high and mighty.

Aunt Liu sighed softly; some ideas clearly cannot be changed in just a few words.

Fortunately.

Even though the old man is still alive, the Yi family still wields top-tier influence.

……

Upon arriving at the Guangzhou Restaurant, Chen Zhe personally came down to greet her and said, "Miss Yi, I suspect your identity will eventually be discovered. Do you mind?"

Yi Baoyu glanced at him curiously.

It's as if they're saying, "This land belongs to our families, so why should I be afraid of being recognized?"

Chen smiled and nodded, deliberately lagging behind a step, waiting for Gege to go upstairs first.

The reporters have already started eating; this kind of situation also happens during social gatherings.

When leaders feast with their subordinates, it's called "sharing joy with the people."
The leader finally arrived late, having a couple of drinks with everyone, which was called "showing his appreciation."

In short, rules are rigid, but the situation is flexible, and everything is decided by the leaders.

When these people saw Chen Zhe and the host "Ms. Yi," some of the reporters, who were already quite drunk, loudly demanded to clink glasses with Chen Zhe.

Some "bold and unruly people" even dared to make Princess Yi "drink three cups of wine as punishment for being late."

Chen Zhe was somewhat alarmed. He asked Zhang Guangfeng to bring the microphone from the banquet hall, cleared his throat, and said:
"Thank you to all our media friends for coming today. It is a great honor for Youmi to receive your attention. Please continue to support us in the future."

"Furthermore, I would like to express my special gratitude to Ms. Yi, whose ancestors shed their blood for the founding of New China. She was not required to attend today's event, but out of concern for the nation's science and technology industry, Ms. Yi not only attended but also served as a speaker. This deeply impresses all of us at Suhui and will surely inspire us to forge ahead on the path of independent innovation..."

As the conversation continued, the banquet hall gradually quieted down.

Reporters are people who travel all over the country and have so many inside stories. After hearing Chen's words and combining the "surname" with "shedding blood", Miss Yi's identity is obvious.

Her ancestor was the Duke of the Founding State, the Pillar of State, the Grand Master of the Palace, and eventually even the Chancellor of the Secretariat.

Damn it...

Some people quietly put down their wine glasses, while others unconsciously straightened their backs. The reporter who had just teased Yi Baoyu desperately tried to shrink into the crowd, afraid of being noticed.

Princess squinted her eyes, enjoying the awe-inspiring gazes of everyone.

This silent submission seemed to be an innate embellishment to her.

After Chen finished speaking, his phone suddenly rang.

He walked to the side and answered the call, only to find it was from Wang Guohua, the head of the China Mobile Group.

"Brother, why didn't you say you knew someone from the Yi family sooner..."

Wang Guohua began in a reproachful tone: "Well... 10,000 customized contract phones, I don't think they can be given away for free, after all, you guys have it tough..."

Chen was slightly taken aback.

Has the princess's network of connections started to take effect?
