Entertainment to the death, make a tokusatsu film that will crush the entire internet.

That evening, Wang Teng posted a long Weibo post.

"I'm not very good at writing, but I just want to tell you all about the 998 air conditioner."

I bought it and installed it today.

The installer brought shoe covers when he arrived, and confirmed the plan with me before installation, measuring all the dimensions with a ruler.

I personally inspected the copper pipes; they were genuine copper. The vacuum process lasted fifteen minutes without a single second being lost, and no extra fees were charged.

I slipped a hundred-dollar tip to him, but it was returned.

After the installation was finished, they took all the installation debris from my house.

When they left, they wiped the doormat clean for me.

This air conditioner cost me 998 yuan in the end, with no shipping or installation fees, and an eight-year warranty.

I wonder how those air conditioner brands that sell for three or four thousand yuan feel after seeing this post.

Anyway, I'm sitting in a room that's 26 degrees Celsius right now. I feel cool, but I also feel very sad.

If the Land of Light had installed air conditioning earlier, I probably wouldn't have suffered from the heat for so many years.

Five stars, not just for the air conditioner, but also for the two technicians.

The comment section of this Weibo post was flooded with thousands of messages within four hours.

Initially, only a few users asked about the details.

"Is the copper pipe really made of pure copper?"

"How's the cooling effect?"

"Is the sound loud?"

"Is the electricity bill high?"

Wang Teng replied to each one.

When someone asked about vacuuming, he repeated Lao Liu's exact words.

The simpler his reply, the more lively the comment section became.

Because most people, after hearing about this installation service and comparing it with their own experiences, find the difference so great that it's unacceptable.

"My air conditioner cost 5,000 yuan. The installer vacuumed it for four minutes and then called it a day. I asked him if it was supposed to take fifteen minutes, and he said that their company's standard is five minutes."

I called customer service to complain, and they said they would handle it, but then nothing happened.

Can I say that my 3,000 yuan air conditioner was not vacuumed during installation?

The technician simply connected the pipes and turned it on. I didn't understand at the time, but later I found out that this step had been skipped.

"I bought my air conditioner two years ago, and now it makes a buzzing sound as soon as I turn it on. I contacted the after-sales service and they said the compressor is broken and it will cost 1,500 yuan to replace it."

I suspect it's because the moisture wasn't completely removed during installation—but it's been so long, who can I complain to?

When an ordinary person discovers that the frustrations they've endured over the years regarding air conditioner installation and after-sales service can be offset by another company using the most basic standards.

A complex mix of feelings of grievance and relief welled up at the same time.

But this is only the beginning.

The next day, more buyers began sharing their installation experiences online.

A recent college graduate posted a photo of the Land of Light air conditioner hanging in his rented room.

"Renters are crying because their landlords won't install air conditioners, so I bought this myself for 998 yuan including installation."

I won't feel bad taking it with me when I move. The key is that it's energy-efficient (Level 1), consuming only a few kilowatt-hours a night, so I can afford the electricity bill myself.

A customer in Shanxi ordered two air conditioners and filmed the installation process on his phone, posting it as a short video on Xingguang Video.

In the video, the installation technician, wearing blue overalls, is installing the indoor unit.

He asked a question.

"Master, what do you do for a living?"

The video garnered over five million views that afternoon.

"Haha, you're even making jokes about this! You've really gone too far, content creator!"

"Hilarious! Didn't you see the look in Master's eyes? He must be dumbfounded."

"Speaking of which, this air conditioner doesn't have a model name yet. How about calling it the Dior model? It'll be perfect since it blows cold air."

"No wonder you recommended this video series to me; Stand users are ultimately drawn to each other!"

However, among all the user reviews, evaluations, and positive feedback...

One video comment left everyone who saw it speechless for a long time.

The user who posted the comment had a white gardenia as their profile picture.

The ID is "Sunflower Striving to Live".

The comment was very long, but it had no pictures, no emojis, and no exclamation marks.

But everyone who read this passage left long or short silences in the comments section.

"I am a child from the countryside. My parents left me a long time ago, and my grandfather raised me."

My grandfather farmed the land his whole life.

When I was a child, I was most afraid of summer because my grandfather had to work in the fields from morning till night and would come back covered in sweat.

The old fan in my house has been running for over ten years, and the air it blows out is hot.

Grandpa couldn't sleep all night, so he sat on the doorstep until it got cool in the middle of the night before going back inside.

Back then, I thought that when I grew up, I would definitely buy an air conditioner for my grandfather.

This year I graduated and received my first paycheck. It wasn't much, but it was enough to buy an air conditioner for my grandfather in the Land of Light.

The day the air conditioner was delivered, Grandpa stood at the door watching the deliveryman move the boxes and asked me: What is this?

I said it was an air conditioner.

Grandpa said again: It must be very expensive, right?

I said it wasn't expensive, only a few hundred yuan.

He didn't believe me, saying, "Don't lie to me, the one Old Li installed next door cost more than three thousand."

I'm telling you, it's really not expensive. You'll see once you go in and try it.

After it was installed, the room cooled down in about ten minutes after the air conditioner was turned on.

Grandpa sat on the bed, tilting his head back and looking at the air vent for a long time.

He turned to look at me and said, "It's cool, really cool."

Grandpa smiled and said he was very happy to see me grow up.

That night, Grandpa went to bed early, and I turned the fan to the lowest setting so he wouldn't catch a cold.

He lay on the bed with his eyes closed, a smile on his lips, and his breathing was steady.

I sat by his bedside for a while, watching him sleep soundly, and thought to myself, "Grandpa won't have to endure those sweltering nights anymore."

only……"

There is a noticeable pause in the text here.

"...However, Grandpa did not wake up the next day."

he's gone.

The community doctor said it was heart failure, and he passed away peacefully.

There was no struggle, no pain; it was as if she had fallen asleep, and the sweltering summer night passed by.

Grandpa worked hard all his life, but he never ate a decent meal, never wore a decent piece of clothing, and never enjoyed the cool breeze of air conditioning in the summer.

I can't say that he left peacefully because of this air conditioner; that would be too far-fetched.

But I believe that the night before he left was the best night I could ever give him in my life.

A cool room, a peaceful sleep, and his granddaughter sitting by his bedside.

I think he probably felt that I had grown up and could take care of myself, so he could finally leave in peace.

"Thank you, Land of Light, for not making air conditioning a luxury item."

Thank you for your 998 (working from 9 am to 9 pm, ...

This is the only chance I'll ever have to fulfill my filial duty, and you've helped me seize it.

The last sentence reads: "The air conditioner is very good; Grandpa said it's very cool."

Later, when I returned to my hometown and walked into the old house where he had lived his whole life, the air conditioner was still hanging on the wall.

I will remember how soundly he slept that night.

Thank you.
