After rebirth, I want to destroy my original family
Chapter 403: Free mobile phone for deposit fee
Yang Shuan and Guo Zihang showed playful smiles as they entered the house and walked to the kitchen door. They put the mutton and roast chicken they had brought with them into the refrigerator, then turned back and sat on the chairs.
At this time, Gu Ming finished his meal, put his chopsticks on the empty plate, and looked up at his two adopted sons, Gan'er: "Lao Guo, do you like washing dishes?"
Guo Zihang: "..."
"Where's Shu An, do you like washing dishes?"
The corner of Yang Shuan's mouth twitched: "Uncle, brush slowly, we are waiting for you."
Gu Ming couldn't help but frown: "I told you, coming to my uncle's house is just like returning to your own home. Why are you so polite every time?"
"Be polite, it's not a kiss after all, right Lao Guo?" Yang Shuan knocked Guo Zihang down with his elbow.
Guo Zihang nodded immediately: "Yes, yes, although my adoptive father does not treat me as an outsider, I still have to be a little self-aware."
Gu Ming had a dark face and was angry at the two of them for being indifferent. Then he went into the kitchen cursing and said to himself that young people nowadays are so lazy and they are not willing to help with any work at home.
After washing the dishes, the three of them put on their coats and left the house, and went for a walk around the market at the annual meeting.
This is an open space left over from the reconstruction phase of the old city. This year it was temporarily used as an annual meeting market. It is smaller than 1 Anshan, but there are many vendors selling goods, and hundreds of stalls are crowded together. Before I even got there, I could already hear the roar of people.
Gu Ming walked forward with his pocket in his pocket and muttered: "I have always been occupied by Zhou Xiaoyao. Otherwise, how would you have the chance to go shopping alone with such a good-looking man like me?"
"Ah, yes, yes."
"If you go home with me at night, if you accidentally tell her about your shopping experience with me, she will cry with envy. What's the point of going shopping with my mother? What a shame!"
Guo Zihang and Yang Shuan looked at each other and said to themselves that he really had a big problem with classmate Zhou accompanying his mother-in-law when shopping instead of him.
These two sentences were emphasized twice.
Gu Mingfeng came to the roasted seeds and nuts stall calmly, bought some melon seeds and some roasted chestnuts, and then spent ten yuan to make loops, which were filled with air and the boss's smile. Then he turned around and bought two more iron plates. squid.
Look, the time without the little rich woman sticking around is still very happy!
"Uncle, why are you not happy? There is no expression on your face."
"Nonsense, I don't know how happy I am right now."
Gu Ming was a little angry. He pinched open a roasted chestnut with a click, then reached out and pulled out a "sword"-like branch from the green bush, and flicked the snow on it straight.
Behind this open space is No. 4 Middle School. It is estimated that some high school student secretly sealed it here and planned to take it away when he returned to school.
Seeing this scene, Yang Shuan and Guo Zihang were extremely hungry.
"Uncle, let me play."
"Father, please pass the sword to me."
Gu Ming held the branch and shook it twice: "It's so damn useless, I'll play first!"
Yang Shu'an and Guo Zihang followed eagerly, waiting to take over the branches. From time to time, they heard arguments like "I am the eldest prince" and "Why are you the eldest prince?"
In fact, no matter how old a man is, he is always naive at heart.
Some seemingly mature people are just forced by the shackles of society. Putting these aside, they really become more naive as they get older.
From the beginning to the end of the collection, Gu Ming bought a lot of things, including a hairpin with a red ribbon, a metal hairpin with an auspicious metal hairpin for the Year of the Rabbit, and New Year's greeting cards and the like. Pendant on mobile phone.
"Uncle, bring me a candy man."
"Okay, what shape do you want? Can you write words, draw zodiac signs, or maybe a little bunny?"
A pattern flashed in Gu Ming's mind, a big bear [heart shape] and a little rich woman. Then he turned to look at Guo Zihang and Yang Shu'an: "There is a public toilet opposite, you go and pee."
Guo Zihang was stunned for a moment: "I broke it when I came here."
"Now you want to cheat again, go quickly, otherwise you won't get any red envelopes during the Chinese New Year!"
"..."
The two people looked at each other, then ran away.
Gu Ming turned to look at the candy seller: "Give me three. One will be written as a big bear, one will be written as a little rich woman, and the last one will draw a heart for me."
The uncle of the candy seller scooped up a spoonful of syrup and muttered something, thinking that big and small were okay, but the last four words were really useless candy.
The uncle's craftsmanship is quite good. He uses sugar to write connected characters very quickly and well. The heart drawn at the end is also very round.
Gu Ming took out the money and ate the heart. Not a single bit was left, and then walked back with the remaining two.
It was as if that heart had never existed in this world before. It was simply a genius.
At this time, Guo Zihang and Yang Shuan had come back. They looked at the two candy figures in Gu Ming's hands with incomprehensible expressions. They thought to themselves, what's so shameful about this, why do they have to get rid of them?
Gu Ming looked at their confused expressions and laughed, thinking that the shameless ones have been eaten by me long ago, and no one can watch them.
"Uncle, look over there."
"what?"
Gu Ming heard the sound and looked over, and found a clerk coming out of the mobile business hall opposite and pasting a poster on the door.
It says there is a year-end welfare program, pre-deposit 3 phone charges, and you will get a 3-star smartphone as a gift. The six words "1-star smartphone" are also highlighted in red and bold.
"You can get a mobile phone as a gift if you deposit 3? Is that fake?"
"real."
"Then you're going to die?" Guo Zihang looked confused.
Gu Ming looked at Guo Zihang: "This is one of the marketing methods. Giving away mobile phones is to cultivate the market and gain market share. When the audience increases, you can make back any initial losses later."
Functional phones were replaced by smart phones very quickly, almost completely starting around 2012.
Gu Ming still remembers that he had not graduated from college at that time, but people around him were already using Coolpad, Meizu, HTC, and Xiaomi, which was born for fever, also used hunger marketing to instantly open up the market.
At that time, there were quite a few using Samsung and Apple, but those mobile phones from Motorola, Dovi, and Bird in the past have disappeared since then.
There was also the first-generation mobile phone king Nokia, which refused to repent and used the Symbian system it developed. As a result, its market share shrank wildly. Even if it launched a Windows version after being acquired, it did not make any waves in the end.
Smartphones are inevitable for the development of the times, but what really accelerates the change of the times is the routine of giving away mobile phones by charging phone bills.
At that time, in order to expand its domestic market share and acquire more user groups, 3 Star specially launched contract phones and cooperated with telecom operators to provide recharge gifts.
You get a mobile phone when you deposit your phone bill, and you get a mobile phone when you buy broadband. Except for the contract period, everything is like picking it up for free.
But this routine is really powerful, because the threshold for free prostitution has always been the lowest. This routine not only provides operators with a large number of contract users, but also builds brand awareness for mobile phone manufacturers.
The most important thing is that many of the kings of the feature phone era have just gotten a taste of it at this time, and the technology has not yet been revolutionized. As a result, because of the acceleration of the cost of recharging phone bills to buy mobile phones, they have been thrown far behind. They have already tried to catch up. Can't catch up.
Yes, it is this kind of marketing method that directly defeated 8% of competitors in the mobile phone market.
Later, ZTE and Huawei also joined the market of giving away mobile phones by charging phone bills, and became well-known mobile phone manufacturers from being unknown.
This thing seems to be a loss, and a lot of money has been burned, but those who are doing long-term development are all about the subsequent benefits.
Giving away low-end models to cultivate users, then increasing prices little by little, and launching high-end models. The return rate of this thing is almost tens of thousands. This is almost the same way as burning money through group purchases.
Gu Ming took the two of them into the business hall, charged 3 yuan in phone bills, and changed their phones.
It is white, with an Tianyi 3G logo on the back and a 3-star logo on the front. The plastic back cover can still be opened, and an original battery is included in the box.
There are not many pre-installed software after the mobile phone is turned on, and the simple operation interface even looks a bit ugly, but compared to a functional phone that can only answer calls and send text messages and access WAP, this is already a dimensionality reduction.
“The app needs to be developed quickly, otherwise how can it be bundled and pre-installed?”
Gu Ming opened the music player, and a preview song "Thousands of Miles Away" was pre-stored in it.
"This phone feels better than the one I bought." Yang Shuan stared at it for a long time, feeling a little regretful.
He had just replaced an HTC a year ago, spending two thousand yuan, but it was not as smooth as Gu Ming's free one.
"So, winning or losing is sometimes determined from the beginning. The market has not yet opened up and you have to be high-end. As a result, what people give you for free is more durable than what you spend money to buy. How can you win?"
"..."
It was already evening after returning from the market. When the three of them entered the house, they saw Yuan Youqin cooking in the kitchen, while Zhou Xiaoyao was sitting on the sofa watching Mango TV's new year's drama "I accidentally fell in love with you."
After Meteor Shower made Ah Hai popular, this is a romantic idol drama tailor-made for him by Hunan TV, which is very exciting for the little rich woman to watch.
"I took Guo Zihang and Yang Shuan out shopping today."
Gu Ming sat next to Zhou Xiaoyao and emphasized: "We have been shopping for a day."
Feng Nanshu was dumbfounded for a while: "I also want to hang out with you for a day."
"Who asked you to go shopping with my mother so early in the morning? What a loss, right? But I brought you a gift."
Gu Ming took out the two candy figures with Big Bear and Little Rich Woman written on them. The little rich woman's eyes instantly lit up. She took the candy and looked at it for a long time, then handed the one with the little rich woman to Gu Ming.
"I eat you, you eat me."
Guo Zihang and Yang Shu'an looked away when they heard the sound, wondering why you elders were talking so naughtyly, children couldn't listen at all.
Gu Ming couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, reached out and handed the Nokia in his pocket to her: "Hey, I'll give you my spare phone to play with."
Zhou Xiaoyao: "?"
"I got a new one, this is my spare."
