Chapter 787: Difficult shopping trip
United States, New York.
NYU Manhattan, foundershall.
David is a sophomore at New York University. At the moment, he is lying on the bed and playing with his mobile phone.
"Oh, Shet! Why do you still need real-name authentication?" David couldn't help cursing.
I saw a reminder window pop up on his mobile phone page.
"Please perform real-name authentication before proceeding."
After the window is crossed out, and then click to add to the shopping cart, this window still pops up.
David sat up directly from the bed, glanced to the side, saw the dead fat man still talking on the phone, and shouted rudely: "Damn Boris, stop calling, there is something important!"
The little fat Boris, who was talking to his girlfriend Qingqing, had no choice but to say goodbye: "Honey, please wait for me a moment, I will grab a smart thermostat for you later, see you tomorrow."
After hanging up the phone, Boris said to David with a look of resentment: "David, what do you have to say when Diana and I are on the phone?"
David spit out angrily: "Fake, you stupid pig, look at what this is!"
"What?" Seeing David's angry look, Boris put on his slippers and walked over.
After seeing the content of the mobile phone page, Boris was surprised: "Walter, what is this?"
"When I was just about to add to the shopping cart, this prompt popped up, as if I had to verify my real name before continuing."
David said unhappily: "Sheet, just buy something and need real-name authentication. Is this an invasion of personal privacy?"
"Then what?" Boris asked worriedly.
David asked Boris: "Do you have to buy it?"
Boris nodded, "Of course, I promised Diana to give her a set!"
"What else can I do, I have to authenticate with my real name..." David pouted, "Anyway, someone will sue the other party later, so let's buy it first."
Tucao returns to Tucao, but you still have to buy it, who made this smart thermostat only available in Guanghua University.
After the two successfully uploaded the social security number in the settings, and then performed face recognition, the real-name authentication was completed.
Without multiple choices, David chose a set of black and a set of white to add to cart.
New York University, where David studied, is one of the top 50 universities in the world. There are two campuses, Manhattan campus and Brooklyn campus, of which Manhattan is the main campus.
New York is a world famous city, and Manhattan is the essence of New York.
Wall Street, United Nations Headquarters, Statue of Liberty, Metropolitan Museum, Times Square, Central Park, Fifth Avenue, Rockefeller Center, Broadway Theater District, Chinatown are all gathered here.
It is worth mentioning that the tuition fee of New York University is not low, it costs nearly 50,000 US dollars a year, in addition to this, there is another major expenditure is the accommodation fee.
Although New York University provides dormitories, the dormitory fees are not cheap.
David's foundershall, located in Union Square, New York City, mainly consists of double rooms. On the 26th floor of the dormitory building, there is also a large outdoor courtyard, community garden, two TV lounges, a computer study room, and computer research. , the entire hall has been connected to wi-fi, founders is a relatively expensive apartment-level dormitory at New York University, and the annual accommodation fee is as high as about 17,000 US dollars.
His family is not very good, and it is very difficult to pay for college expenses, so this time he plans to buy only two sets of smart thermostats.
By this time, the time on the phone was 11:45 pm.
The United States spans from the West 5th to the West 10th, with a total of six time zones. Each time zone corresponds to a standard time.
New York belongs to Eastern Time, and Eastern Time = bj time - 12 hours (daylight saving time)
After calculating the time, there were still ten minutes left, and David began to get nervous inexplicably.
"Boris, do you think we can grab it later?"
The first batch of smart thermostats only has 500,000 sets in China, and the other 500,000 sets are from countries and regions other than China.
The base of this rush is not low.
"Of course the lucky Boris can grab it, but my good brother David doesn't know if he can." Boris danced awkwardly.
Boris looks really bad!
David clenched his fists and said angrily: "Sheet! If I really don't grab it, Boris, you're finished!"
"Oh~ God bless, then you definitely won't be able to grab it~" Boris shrugged, looking confident.
David: "…"
Don't ignore this bastard.
Turned around and quietly waited for the arrival of 12 o'clock in the evening.
11:58.
11:59.
At the moment when the time returned to zero, David immediately clicked to buy quickly - the face confirmed the payment.
Then…
【Successful payment! 】
Seeing this page, David breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on his face.
Then, he heard a pig-like cry coming from beside him.
"Shet! There was no snap-up!"
"Damn fat man, let you laugh at me just now, the **** of luck only came to me today!" David gloated and laughed.
"David, did you grab it??!"
"of course!"
After getting confirmation from David, Boris hurriedly came over and begged hard: "Hey, David, my dear brother, can you give me one set? I promised to give it to Diana, please!"
"No, no, I don't think so."
"Please, I can add $300 to the original price! For our friendship's sake, okay?"
"this…"
Boris gritted his teeth: "Add $500!"
"Well, well, who made you my brother, I reluctantly agreed to you." David pretended to be embarrassed and said.
In fact, I was secretly delighted.
Anyway, the production capacity should be released later, and there is no problem with one set for a month or two.
Compared with David's luck, Nakasu Takata is very sad.
In a Starbucks in downtown Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan.
After Nakasu Takata looked at the prompt on the phone, the whole person went berserk.
"Baga! Why didn't you grab it!"
"In order to grab this smart thermostat, I even took a day off!"
Nakasu Takata yelled angrily in the store, and only lowered his voice after being reminded by the clerk.
Japan is a very magical country, the gap between the rich and the poor is large but not very large with the middle class.
Zhongzhou Xiaotai entered the factory after graduating from high school. It was not because he did not want to go to university, but because his grades were poor, he had to go to a private university, and his family could not afford this condition, so he had to work in the factory.
This is also the current norm in Japanese society.
The low birthrate and the class solidification brought about by happy education have led to fewer and fewer Japanese young people entering universities, and many university enrollment plans are also decreasing year by year.
Some universities even have more Chinese students than local students.
As a regular worker who has worked in the factory for two or three years, Nakasu Takata earns an annual salary of about 4 million yen (200,000 yuan), which is almost the same as a fresh graduate.
Zhongzhou Xiaotai, who has no wife and no partner, has a good life, and it is enough to spend his own money. A set of intelligent thermostatic clothing is about one-third of the salary.
Just as he gritted his teeth and prepared to snap up, he didn't expect the snap to fail? !
Although it is not easy to criticize in the store, you can go online to be a keyboard warrior.
Without thinking much, Nakasu Takata directly opened Twitter and started editing the text.
"Nakasu Takata: China's smart thermostat failed to snap up?! It's ridiculous, a Japanese wants to **** clothes developed by the Chinese?! Are all our scientists dead? Isn't there one in Tsukuba City? Does the National Institute of Materials boast how powerful it is every day? What about them? If they are just hanging around with high salaries, then I can come! [Picture]"
Nakasu Kota's Twitter was quickly liked and retweeted by many Japanese netizens, who were basically those who failed to snap up.
After all, the whole world has only grabbed 500,000 sets, and it is not bad that the whole of Japan can grab 50,000 sets.
Following this wave of grievances, Japanese netizens directly began to anger scientists in their own country.
This wave is not only in Japan, but also appeared on the Internet in many countries at the same time.
The sight returned to the Guanghua Mall direct-sale store on the campus of Guanghua University. UU reading www. uukanshu. com
When Jing Sheng and his mother found Father Jing, his eyes were drawn to a young man behind his father.
After looking at the other party several times, he finally recognized it.
Jing Sheng shouted excitedly:
"Grass the grass, are you... this year's national college entrance examination champion Sun Zheng?"
ps: Sorry, the subject has a fever at night, and has been taking care of her. Writing a book has been delayed again, and the plan to go to bed early has failed...
