Chapter 220 - A Baller Smashed the Shenhua N7 in Anger, the Reason Was…



Chapter 220 A Baller Smashed the Shenhua N7 in Anger, the Reason Was…

After settling the matters regarding the Outstanding Employee Selection, Pei Qian returned to his rented apartment. He took out the express delivery package that had just arrived.

Pei Qian bought two phones this time around.

The first phone was Shenhua’s latest flagship phone model-Shenhua N7. It was priced at 4199 yuan and was mainly targeted at office workers. The other phone was the latest flagship phone model of an overseas company called MSC—the B90 model. It was priced around 4600 yuan.

Many industries in that universe were a little different from those in Pei Qian’s memory. In the current year, domestic phone companies should only be at their developing stages. They found it hard to fight against overseas phone companies. However, in that universe, Shenhua’s mobile phones were developing very quickly.

Although the overall strength of their flagship phone model could not be compared with Pineapple phones, the value of their phones could be reasonably priced at the 4000 range. What they achieved was three or four years ahead of the progress of the domestic phone companies in Pei Qian’s memory.

Of course, considering the development stages of cell phone and mobile games in that universe, Shenhua’s achievements did not give Pei Qian too much of a shock.

Anyways, those were just a side note.

The main thing was that the Shenhua N7 was about to become the second victim today.

He should leave the MSC cell phone for the next episode.

Similar to the previous episode, Pei Qian shot the video with his cell phone and ran through the procedures. He dipped it into the water, threw it from midair, smashed it apart, and rewound the clips. Anyways, he did whatever he could to give the phone a hard time.

After completing the standard procedures, he did some simple editing and rendering to the clips and uploaded the final video.

“Good. I’m done!”

Pei Qian stretched his body. Working was really tiring

To his surprise, the Shenhua N7 model had pretty good drop protection. Its rear cover was even sturdier than the Pineapple phones. Pei Qian had some difficulty trying to pry the rear cover of the phone open, and he spent quite some effort in doing so. However, as the saying went, blunt force led to miracles. There was not a single phone in the world that Pei Qian could not pry open.

After completing all of that, Pei Qian felt that the duration was shorter than he had expected. He still had some time to do other things.

“Umm… that’s great, why don’t we finish the MSC flagship cell phone model today as well?

“After that, we can stop working on cell phones temporarily. We can explore other digital products, such as headphones, cameras, and laptops. Those were all worth considering.”

Pei Qian yawned and opened a can of cola to wake himself up. He continued working on the third episode of Hardcore Reviews.

He most certainly could not upload two episodes at the same time. Pei Qian wanted to wait for the responses of this video that he had just uploaded. If the responses were good, he could upload the MSC episode either tomorrow or two days later.

After ‘Hardcore Reviews Episode 2: Shenhua N7’ had been uploaded onto Aili Island, viewers that had previously subscribed to this account quickly received a notification.

Even if the ‘Hardcore Reviews’ account did not have many fans, many viewers that saw the first episode had subscribed to this account. Therefore, when the second video was uploaded, there were quickly many voices in the comments section.

“Holy sh*t. Episode 2 was uploaded so quickly!”

“Previously, it was Pineapple 4, now Shenhua N7? The total number of views for these two videos had not even reached 5000, and yet the production cost of both videos reached 10,000?!”

“Pineapple 4 was almost 5000 yuan while Shenhua N7 was 4199. The cost was around 9000 in total! I can only say that we cannot understand the life of a baller!”

“Could these videos be reposted?”

“They are not reposted. You can’t find the ‘Hardcore Reviews’ account at any other platforms. Aili Island seems to be the first platform that these videos had been uploaded onto.”

“That’s a real baller!”

“There’s no need to say anything. Like. Tip. Share. I need to support this video no matter what simply because of its production cost!”

Many viewers shared the video.

Because of the user volume from the first video, there were more views for this episode.

Moreover, there was no news conference for new products during this period. Therefore, the electronics area in the platform was rather inactive. There was not much new content that was uploaded.

Since the video was uploaded at such timing, it naturally had more views.

Furthermore, the keywords of the video’s caption included words such as hardcore, reviews, and Shenhua N7. If people searched for similar words, this video would appear in the search results.

At night…

Shenzhen…

Hu Xiao had just finished a ‘battle’ with an enthusiastic netizen in the forum. He was still trying to calm himself down.

As the creator of Shaohu Reviews, Hu Xiao had been living a rather lavish life due to the earnings from his videos. Viewers nowadays could be easily fooled, and it was easy earning the money of his fans. Many overseas companies were also very generous with the money they offered him.

As a professional hater of Shenhua, Hu Xiao took the responsibility of criticizing Shenhua. However, Shenhua’s cell phones were becoming increasingly popular. That made him very angry.

He had just had a ‘battle’ with an enthusiastic netizen in the forum and had ended the conversation by demeaning each other’s relatives.

Hu Xiao opened the page leading to the electronics area of Aili Island. He originally wanted to just scroll through the videos and check if there were any new videos.

“Huh? ‘Hardcore Reviews Episode 2: Shenhua N7? I have never heard of this review organization. Is this new?”

Brimming with curiosity, Hu Xiao clicked on the video.

The video was not very long and was only about ten minutes. Although most of the content was recorded in a single shot, he could tell that there was some evidence of simple editing in some parts of the video.

However, the content caused Hu Xiao to almost laugh out loud.

How the f*ck was that a review? That’s just aggressive testing!

He dipped it into the water, threw it onto the ground, and chopped it with a kitchen knife…

The dismantling part at the end was even more hilarious. He used a flat head screwdriver and pried the rear cover of the phone along its gaps. The way he dismantled the components of the phone proved the ‘blunt force leads to miracles’ theory. He did not care if the cables at the back were connected and was also unconcerned if there were any dispensing. He simply gouged the components out of the cell phone.

One could clearly see the veins on his hands. That showed how much force he was using.

When there was nothing more to dismantle, the phone was utterly ruined. It was similar to the scene of a car accident.

The most absurd part was that the video creator said that he would revive the phone, and yet the only thing that he did was to rewind the clips of him dismantling the phone aggressively.

“Good job! It feels nice watching someone smashing a Shenhua cell phone. I need to share this video! I want to smash it too. It’s a pity I do not have the money for it.”

After arguing with the netizen who supported Shenhua phones, Hu Xiao was still a little enraged. Seeing a video that smashed and cracked a Shenhua cell phone made his mood turn for the better.

No need to say anything. Share!

Hu Xiao mainly used Weibo for his Shaohu Reviews. However, his account at Aili Island had three to four hundred thousand subscribers.

Although he did not have many subscribers, they were all very active. Moreover, Hu Xiao also had the contacts of professional fake reviewer teams. Therefore, he had a strong influence on the internet.

After sharing the video, he added a caption: ‘A Baller Smashed the Shenhua N7 in Anger. The Reason was…’

After writing those words, Hu Xiao almost laughed at what he wrote.

Those who did not know what happened might think that the baller smashed the Shenhua N7 phone because he was unhappy and angry about its quality.

It was a little unethical of him to do so, and yet Hu Xiao did not go overboard. His actions could only be considered ordinary title sensationalism. It was not enough to spur public hate and cause him to be scolded by all netizens.

If there were people who really came to him looking for trouble, he could resolve it by teasing them: If you treated that seriously, that meant that you have a glass heart and you wanted to raise ordinary issues at the level of big issues about nation, society, morals or politics.

That was the highest realm of creating disgust for others. Hu Xiao was extremely familiar with that.

After sharing the video, Hu Xiao had a question.

What kind of team was behind Hardcore Reviews? Reviewers like Hu Xiao would normally make videos to earn money and get a free phone.

However, it was evident that Hardcore Reviews did not have any sponsored partnerships.

If Shenhua really wanted this review organization to promote their cell phones, they would definitely have some requests regarding the actual content of the video. How could they allow the video creator to demean their cell phone?

Moreover, everyone within the industry knew that Shenhua did not like to look for review organizations. Hu Xiao did not receive sponsored partnerships with Shenhua. Therefore, his love for Shenhua products gradually turned into hate, and he became a professional Shenhua hater.

Then… could it be that the Hardcore Reviews spent its own money to seek attention?

Before the testing, the display was on. The video creator had also toggled the functions of the phone after soaking it in water. It was obvious that he was using a real phone instead of a duplicate.

Ruin a real cell phone in each episode of the show?

Hu Xiao did not really understand the life of the ballers…

Hu Xiao did not take the matter to heart. Contented, he hummed a song and went to take a bath.
