"We will find a way to address the signal tower issue. Once we return, we will invest heavily in building a watermelon-themed signal tower to ensure users have a good experience."
"What? You're going to build 16 cell towers? Did I hear that right? You're building cell towers just to sell cell phones?"
Upon hearing Gao Qilin's words, the other party appeared incredulous, as building a signal tower requires a great deal of manpower and financial resources, which is something a small company simply cannot afford.
"I'm sure, don't worry. I'm sure I have a way of saying this, so you don't need to worry too much. Just give me the phone quickly, so I can develop the market here sooner and make the watermelon phone popular in our area. Don't you think so?"
At this moment, Gao Qilin knew that if he was the only one speaking, it wouldn't have much effect. So after he finished speaking, he immediately turned his gaze to Gao Qilan, who was standing to the side, and asked him to speak along with him.
Gao Qilan immediately understood his meaning and quickly said:
"We had already investigated the situation before we came here. There are many people who want to buy the Watermelon Phone, and the profit margin of the Watermelon Phone is very high. We are confident that we can use the money from selling the phones to build a cell tower."
"Since you've already come up with a solution, there's nothing more I can say. However, there's one thing I need to remind you: this is your first time acting as an agent, so we can only give you two hundred phones. If you can sell them all within a month, we'll have more. But if you can't sell them all, we won't be able to cooperate anymore."
"It's just two hundred, what's the big deal? Don't worry, I can get it done for you within half a month."
Seeing how simple the other party made it sound, Gao Qilan agreed without hesitation and appeared very confident.
Gao Qilin quickly pulled him aside and said in a very serious tone:
"He said two hundred, that's no small amount. You should know what the average consumption level is in Handong Province. Do you think those people can afford to buy a watermelon and a mobile phone?"
"Don't worry, the fact that I agreed means I have my own methods, so you don't need to worry."
Faced with Gao Qilin's questioning, Gao Qilan appeared confident and composed.
Seeing this, Gao Qilin did not press the matter further, but instead followed his approach.
"Alright, since you agreed so readily, I'll give you a chance. I'll contact you in half a month. I'd like to see how well you can accomplish then. Okay, enough talk. Hurry up and go inside to sign the contract. After you sign the contract, you can take your phone."
After hearing what the other party said, the two quickly followed. However, they were extra careful when signing the contract, checking all the contents to make sure there were no mistakes before signing it.
"You don't need to be so careful. Our company is so big, we wouldn't do anything to harm you. Besides, you were the ones who approached me first. You should have some trust in me, so this behavior is a bit off, isn't it?"
Seeing their reaction, the other party expressed their dissatisfaction and voiced their true thoughts.
“We trust you and your company. My purpose in doing this is very simple: to ensure that the contents of the contract are correct. Only in this way can I sign it with peace of mind and not worry about being cheated later.”
Faced with the other party's questioning, Gao Qilin explained earnestly that he had signed many contracts before, and at first he didn't read the details. In this way, some people found an opportunity to obtain a huge sum of money from him. Since then, he has become extremely careful about contracts, for fear that such a thing will happen again.
“You’re right. Better safe than sorry. If you want to take a closer look, then look carefully over there. Call me when you’re done. I’ll rest for a bit.”
Seeing this, the other party didn't say anything more. Because the contract contained a lot of information, he didn't have the patience to wait any longer. After saying this, he closed his eyes and began to rest.
However, Gao Qilin didn't pay attention to those things and, seeing this, he focused his attention on the contract again.
Chapter 624 Only half a month
After checking the contract carefully, he confirmed that there were no problems before signing it. However, he checked it again after signing, just in case something went wrong.
"Since you two have already finished, then stop hesitating and get to work. I forgot to tell you, the countdown started the moment the contract was signed. If you can't meet the standards within half a month, you won't be able to sell the watermelon phones."
"Time has already started? That's a bit ridiculous. We live far from here, and it takes a long time to get there and back. You..."
“This is your private matter and has little to do with us. If you feel that this is unfair to you, you can choose to give up.”
The other party had already been monitoring such people, so they acted indifferently in the face of Gao Qilan's complaints, after all, they were the ones who took the initiative to seek cooperation.
"What he said just now was just an angry outburst, don't take it to heart, it's alright. Let's start now, it's only fifteen days, we'll definitely be able to sell all the watermelon phones in this time, you just wait and see."
After saying this, Gao Qilin took Gao Qilan and left. However, as they left, Gao Qilan was filled with resentment.
"The headquarters of Watermelon Mobile is really something else. They're treating people like dirt. Even a normal person would struggle to sell all their phones in such a short time. Isn't that blatant bullying?"
"You made that promise back then, and they were just doing what you said. Why are you complaining so much now? It's too late. There's no point in saying anything now. All we can do now is to do our best and try to sell all the phones after the contract is signed."
Faced with Gao Qilan's complaints, Gao Qilin began to comfort her. He knew in his heart that now that things had happened, nothing he said would make a difference.
After returning to Handong Province, the two focused all their attention on the construction of the signal tower.
Since building a signal tower is a large-scale project, it is necessary to report to higher authorities before construction can begin.
However, this cell tower can only be used by watermelon-shaped mobile phones, which made the people in charge of this matter very pessimistic, and thus the approval has been delayed.
"What's going on? It's been over two days since I reported the cell tower, and I haven't heard anything back. This is ridiculous!"
Faced with this situation, Gao Qilan couldn't help but complain. At this point, he had no idea which part of the process had gone wrong, leading to this situation.
“I think this is a very normal situation. Obviously, that person doesn’t want to give us the green light, which is why the approval has been delayed.”
"What can we do? We can't just keep waiting there, can we? If we keep waiting there, we'll lose our agency rights."
"There's always a way out. Don't worry, their actions won't affect us much. Don't forget that Elder Zhong's official position is higher than theirs. As long as he steps in, there's nothing he can't solve."
Faced with Gao Qilan's concerns, Gao Qilin placed all his hopes on Elder Zhong, wanting him to help him through this difficult time.
"So that's how it is. What are you still hesitating for? Hurry up and go. If you don't find a way to solve this problem soon, I'm afraid there really won't be enough time. Don't forget that building the watermelon signal tower will also take a long time."
Upon realizing this, Gao Qilin understood the problem. He dared not linger and rushed to the Zhong family as quickly as possible, explaining his current situation in hopes of getting some help from Old Master Zhong.
But when faced with the questions raised by Gao Qilin, Professor Zhong remained calm and offered advice:
"It's normal that they won't help you. Don't forget that you built a watermelon signal tower, which can only be used by watermelon phones. Naturally, they won't be happy about it. If you want to get things done, you should also let them enjoy some better benefits."
"Let them enjoy the benefits too? You mean... inflation."
After hearing what Zhong Lao said, Gao Qilin looked very confused.
"To put it bluntly, we want them to experience the convenience that cell towers bring them. I think the simplest way is to give them a watermelon-shaped mobile phone and let them figure it out themselves."
“I thought it was something serious, but it’s just this. That’s fine. I’ll contact them right away and give them some phones. It’s good that Professor Zhong is so open-minded. If it were me, I probably wouldn’t have thought of this even after thinking for a long time.”
Upon hearing what Elder Zhong said, Gao Qilin couldn't help but sigh. After he finished speaking, he quickly left, afraid of wasting even a little time.
After returning, he didn't say a word and immediately ran to the inventory to look for it.
"What are you looking for? Tell me, and we can look for it together."
"I'm looking for my watermelon phone."
Chapter 625 Finally Approved
"You're not thinking of selling phones right now, are you? You should see the situation now. The cell towers aren't even finished yet. Even if you manage to sell the phones, those people will definitely come looking for trouble again."
After hearing Gao Qilin say that, Gao Qilan thought he couldn't resist selling it, so she explained the current situation.
Despite this, Gao Qilin continued his actions, and she had no choice but to step forward to stop him.
Just then, Gao Qilin, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke up:
"I only took the phone to give to those people in charge of construction. As long as they get the benefits, they will definitely let Mowei continue to operate."
"Oh, I see. Why didn't you say so sooner? I misunderstood earlier. In that case, let's not waste any more time. Let's get this done quickly so we can start the sale sooner."
At this moment, Gao Qilan appeared very impatient. Just like Gao Qilin, she really wanted those phones to be sold.
Gao Qilin nodded, took two of the better-looking designs, and went to the home of the person in charge of this area again.
Upon seeing Gao Qilin arrive, the other party appeared very impatient and scolded him:
"I've told you so many times before, these kinds of things need to be notified. Once the notification comes, I'll naturally take care of it for you. Now, I'm notifying you..."
Before the other person could finish speaking, Gao Qilin placed the phone in front of him.
The moment the phone was placed on the table, his expression froze. He quickly took the watermelon-shaped phone from his hand and began to examine it from all angles.
After seeing the exquisite appearance of the watermelon phone, I exclaimed:
"Is this the legendary watermelon phone? It's really high-end."
"What you see (BGCI) are just some of the surface functions. This phone actually has deeper functions, but these deeper functions can only be seen through the internet, so..."
After saying this much, Gao Qilin stopped talking, wanting the other party to understand what he wanted to express.
"I understand. You just want me to agree to your construction of that watermelon-shaped cell tower, right? It's not that I'm not giving you the right, it's just that I can't make that decision myself. You've probably noticed that there's another person who works with me. What if I agree to your decision, but they disagree?"
At this moment, the other party looked very embarrassed. Although he said that, he put the watermelon phone into his pocket while speaking, which showed how much he liked the phone.
His action was quickly noticed by Gao Qilin. Fortunately, he had made preparations before coming, and as soon as he finished speaking, he took out another watermelon-shaped phone from his pocket.
"You don't need to tell me, I know all that on my end. That's why I carefully selected two people when I came this time. Since the other person couldn't come today, could you please help me pass them on?"
"You're the kind of guy who's going to achieve great things. You're always well-prepared. With your drive, this watermelon signal tower will definitely be built. Even though he's not here, I have the official seal. With just one word from me, the whole project will get underway."
At this point, the other party appeared very confident. After speaking, he immediately started searching in the drawer, and soon took out a pen and wrote the words "Construction Permitted." After finishing everything, he stamped it with the official seal.
"Wouldn't that solve the problem? Just show this to the local staff, and they'll allow you to build."
"Thank you for your trouble. Don't worry, this watermelon-shaped cell tower will definitely not let you down."
Gao Qilin never expected things to be so easy, but he still showed his gratitude and then ran out with the documents in his hand.
Once outside, immediately find the local person in charge and show them your identification.
"You're lucky, kid. It's only been a few days and it's already approved. I remember that if someone else applies, it would probably take more than ten days to get approved."
"Yes, I remember a boss who wanted to apply for the expansion of his farm. He applied for half a year, but he still couldn't get it approved."
Those present couldn't help but marvel at how quickly Gao Qilin had accomplished all of this.
Since they were unaware of the situation, they believed that Gao Qilin was simply lucky this time.
However, Gao Qilin didn't want to go into details about that kind of thing with them. Seeing that they attributed everything to luck, he went along with them and started talking.
"You're right, I've been really lucky today. It's all thanks to everyone. Since that's the case, let's not waste any more time and try to finish this as soon as possible. Don't worry, I'll only pay you more if we finish it sooner, not less."
Seeing that Gao Qilin only gave more and not less, those people looked very tempted and immediately began to be interested.
