I Am the President of the University
Chapter 787 A difficult buying trip
Latest website address: New York, USA.
Founders Hall, New York University, Manhattan.
David is a sophomore at New York University. At this moment, he is lying in bed playing with his mobile phone.
"Oh, Shet! Why do you still need to perform real-name authentication?" David couldn't help but cursed.
I saw a reminder window pop up on his mobile phone page.
"Please perform real-name authentication before proceeding."
After closing the window, click Add to Cart again, and this window will still pop up.
David sat up from the bed, glanced to the side, and saw the fat man still talking on the phone, and shouted rudely: "Damn it Boris, stop calling, there's something serious!"
The fat boy Boris, who was making love to his girlfriend, had no choice but to say goodbye: "My dear, please wait for me for a moment. I will grab a smart thermostatic garment for you later. See you tomorrow."
After hanging up the phone, Boris said to David with a look of resentment: "David, is there anything you have to say while Diana and I are on the phone?"
David shouted angrily: "Fake, you stupid pig, look what this is!"
"What?" Seeing David's angry look, Boris put on his slippers and walked over.
After seeing the content on the mobile phone page, Boris was surprised: "Walter, what is this?"
"When I was just about to add it to the shopping cart, this prompt popped up. It seemed that I needed real-name authentication before I could continue."
David said unhappily: "Shet, you just want to buy something and you need to authenticate with your real name. Isn't this an invasion of personal privacy?"
"What should we do?" Boris asked worriedly.
David asked Boris: "Do you have to buy it?"
Boris nodded, "Of course, I promised Diana that I would give her a set!"
"What else can I do, I have to authenticate with my real name..." David curled his lips, "Anyway, someone will probably sue the other party later, so let's buy it first."
Complaints are complaints, but you still have to buy them. Who knows that this smart thermostat is only available at Guanghua University?
After the two people successfully uploaded their social security numbers in the settings, they then performed face recognition and then completed the real-name authentication.
David didn't have to make multiple choices, so he chose a black set and a white set to add to the shopping cart.
The New York University where David studied is one of the top 50 prestigious universities in the world. It has two campuses, the Manhattan campus and the 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, the United Nations Headquarters, the Statue of Liberty, the Metropolitan Museum, Times Square, Central Park, Fifth Avenue, Rockefeller Center, Broadway Theater District, and Chinatown are all gathered here.
It is worth mentioning that New York University’s tuition is not low, costing nearly $50,000 a year. In addition, another major expense is accommodation fees.
Although New York University provides dormitories, the dormitory fees are not cheap.
Founders Hall, where David works, is located in Union Square, New York City. It mainly has double rooms. On the 26th floor of the dormitory building, it also has a large outdoor courtyard, community garden, two TV lounges, a computer study room, and computers. Research, the entire hall has been connected to wi-fi. Founders is a relatively expensive apartment-level dormitory at New York University, with a yearly accommodation fee of about US$17,000.
His family is not well off, and it is already difficult to pay for college expenses, so this time he plans to buy only two sets of smart thermostatic clothes.
By this time, the time on the phone was 11:45 pm.
The United States spans from West 5 to West 10, 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 to go, and David began to feel nervous inexplicably.
"Boris, do you think we can grab it later?"
The first batch of smart thermostatic clothes only has 500,000 sets in China, and the other 500,000 sets are in countries and regions other than China.
The base for this rush purchase is not low.
"Of course lucky Boris can grab it, but I don't know if my good brother David can." Boris danced coquettishly.
Boris really deserves a beating like this!
David clenched his fists and bared his teeth angrily: "Shet! If I really didn't grab it, Boris, you would be doomed!"
"Oh~ God bless, you definitely won't be able to grab it~" Boris shrugged, looking confident.
David: "..."
You shouldn't pay attention to this bitch.
Turn around and wait quietly for 12 o'clock in the evening.
11:58.
11:59.
At the moment when the time reached zero, David quickly clicked on the purchase - the face confirmed the payment.
Then……
【Payment successful! 】
When David saw this page, he was relieved and a smile appeared on his face.
Then, he heard the sound of a slaughtering pig coming from beside him.
"Xie Te! The rush to buy was not successful!"
"Damn fat man, you laughed at me just now, but the god of luck only came to me today!" David gloated and laughed.
"David, you got it??!"
"of course!"
After receiving David's confirmation, Boris quickly came over and begged: "Hey, David, my dear brother, can you give me one set? I promised to give it to Diana, please!"
"No, no, I don't feel good."
"Please, I can add $300 to the original price for you! For the sake of our friendship, okay?"
"this……"
Boris gritted his teeth and said: "Add $500!"
"Well, okay, you are my brother, so I reluctantly agreed to it." David said pretending to be embarrassed.
In fact, I was secretly happy.
Anyway, the production capacity should be released later, and it will be no problem to have one set temporarily for a month or two.
Compared to David's luck, Nakasu Kouta is very miserable.
Japan, Kanagawa Prefecture, in a Starbucks in downtown Yokohama.
After Nakasu Kouta looked at the notification on his phone, he went berserk.
"Baga! Why didn't you get it?"
"In order to grab this smart thermostat, I even took a day off!"
Kouta Nakasu cursed angrily in the store, and then lowered his voice only after being reminded by the clerk.
Japan is an amazing country. The gap between the rich and the poor is large, but the gap between the middle class and the middle class is not very large.
Nakasu Kouta entered a factory after graduating from high school. It was not because he didn't want to go to college, but because his grades were not good and he had to go to a private university. His family could not afford this condition, so he had to work in a factory.
This is also the current norm in Japanese society.
The class solidification brought about by declining birth rate and happy education has led to fewer and fewer Japanese young people entering universities, and many university enrollment plans are also decreasing year by year.
The number of Chinese international students in some universities even exceeds that of local students.
As a formal worker who has worked in the factory for two or three years, Nakasu Kouta's annual salary is about 4 million yen (200,000 yuan). A recent college graduate also earns about the same amount.
Nakasu Kouta, who has neither a wife nor a partner, has a relatively comfortable life. He can afford to spend it by himself. A set of smart thermostatic clothes only costs about one-third of his salary.
Just when he gritted his teeth and prepared to snap up, he didn't expect that his snap up failed? !
Although it's not easy to scold someone in a store, you can become a keyboard warrior online.
Without thinking much, Kouta Nakasu directly opened Twitter and started editing text.
"Kouta Nakasu: China's smart thermostatic clothes failed to snap up?! It's so ridiculous that a Japanese wants to grab clothes developed by the Chinese?! Are all our own scientists dead? Isn't there one in Tsukuba City? Do you think the National Institute of Materials brags about how awesome they are every day? If they just live with a high salary, then that’s fine with me!”
Nakasu Kouta's tweet quickly received likes and retweets from many Japanese netizens, who were basically the ones who failed to buy.
After all, the whole world has only grabbed 500,000 sets, and Japan can grab 50,000 sets, which is pretty good.
Japanese netizens followed this wave of resentment and directly began to angrily attack their own scientists.
This wave is not only in Japan, but also appears on the Internet in many countries at the same time.
My eyes returned to the Guanghua Mall directly-operated store on the campus of Guanghua University.
When Jing Sheng and his mother found Jing's father, his eyes were attracted by a young man behind his father.
After looking at the other person several times, he finally recognized him.
Jing Sheng shouted excitedly:
"Zhoucao, are you... Sun Zheng, this year's top scorer in the national college entrance examination?"
ps: Sorry, the subject had a fever at night, and I have been taking care of her. I was delayed in writing the book, and the plan to go to bed early failed...
