Chapter 39 Shark Baby Smashes Phone, Giant Begs Lee Ki to Keep Quiet

The sales assistant judged that they were probably new customers who had never used Xiangguo before.

He's probably a nouveau riche who's made some money and wants to buy a better phone.

They might even make a lot of noise, but they'll never actually buy it.

He'd seen plenty of people like that.

Li Ji gently swiped his finger to unlock the screen, revealing a series of apps.

"What's so difficult about this?"

Dailulu was completely baffled.

A screen is for displaying information. But how can we achieve a good display effect when we swipe and operate on it, leaving so many fingerprints?

Earthlings are just too primitive, meow.

"What a stupid design, meow."

Upon hearing this, the sales assistant slightly gritted her teeth.

He believed that the female customer in front of him must be uncomfortable using the iOS system to say that.

Android users, what do you know?
You can't understand the convenience and power of the iOS system.

It's pathetic to call a design stupid just because you can't get used to it!
Delulu asked with genuine concern, "Daddy, how come you know how to use something like this?"

The sales assistant's brow twitched: What did I just hear?
Am I part of your game too?

Is it worth rewarding him like this just because he knows how to use the iOS system?

Li Ji said casually, "Is it that difficult? You'll figure it out in no time."

Delulu disagreed.
The original systems of Earth equipment are vastly different from the systems they use daily.

The interface, buttons, and operation methods are all completely different.

She simply couldn't adapt; she was completely bewildered and even found it hard to understand.

However, since Li Ji can even repair mimicry balls, he must have a lot of contact with electronic devices in his daily life.

He must have been familiar with these antique items before, which is why he uses them so skillfully.

As expected of Lee Ki, he's truly surprising us more and more.

Teaming up with Li Ji was a blessing in disguise.

Otherwise, I would still be with Nini saving the fire-breathing KK.

Thinking of this, Dailulu felt a little excited and couldn't help but nuzzle Li Ji with her head.

"Hey, what are you doing now!"

Li Ji tried his best to push Dai Lulu's head away with his hands.

"I acknowledge you, meow. You're my qualified subordinate now, meow."

Li Ji remembered another piece of common sense about raising cats: when a cat rubs its head against you, it is marking its territory and indicating that you belong to it.

"Neuropathy."

The sales assistants couldn't stand it anymore.

You two are so lovey-dovey! If you're going to have a second child, don't do it in my shop!
He had to explain the phone briefly to remind the couple in front of him to behave themselves.

"Gentlemen, let me introduce this phone to you again."

"Our phone is of very high quality, with top-notch drop and water resistance."

Shark leaned on the display stand with both hands and saw the cell phones on the shelf.

The teeth of the Land Shark are extremely hard. In the Interstellar Alliance, Land Sharks that cannot repay their debts will have their teeth removed and sent to be made into quality inspectors, specifically for testing the quality of communicators.

Since the salesperson said the communicator was of very good quality, Sharkbao thought it was necessary to test it.

Shark Baby picked up the phone and put it in her mouth.

The sales assistant continued to explain to the Kilu couple.

The camera used in this product is—

He suddenly saw a child next to him stuffing a prototype into his mouth.

His eyes, nostrils, and mouth instantly enlarged in unison, and he mobilized all his muscles, quickly bypassing the couple like an obstacle course runner, and pounced on Shark Baby.

"Little friend, that's a prototype, you can't eat it! You'll have to pay for it if it breaks!"

"Click——"

The phone snapped in two.

Shark Baby, with the remaining half of the phone in its mouth, looked at the other person innocently, as if it had just bitten off a Snickers bar.

The sales assistant had a vacant stare, her mouth was agape, and her knees were bent from weakness, as if she might collapse at any moment.

He made a sound as faint as a mosquito's buzz.

"It's broken!"

At the same time, a beating heart also shattered.

"Pooh!"

Shark spat half of the phone onto the ground.

"The quality is terrible."

Li Ji stared in disbelief at the scene before him.

"Shark, what are you doing?"

"Let's check the quality. Test done, it's terrible. Class monitor, don't buy this." Dailulu readily agreed, "Okay, meow."

"What a load of rubbish!"

The surrounding customers were drawn to the scene, and many took out their phones to take pictures.

After all, the probability of a child biting and breaking a phone is not very high in a lifetime.

Li Ji watched the sales assistant's retreating figure.

Although hunched over, he stubbornly persevered and did not fall, like a warrior fighting with all his might to support his weak body.

The sales assistant hurriedly picked up the broken pieces of the phone and stuffed them into her pocket.

He turned around slowly.

Their eyes met, they grasped each other's hands, and spoke in unison.

"sorry!"

Li Ji was stunned. It seemed like he was reciting my lines.

The sales assistant had lost her previous arrogant demeanor; her face was full of worry, and her cheeks were flushed with nervousness.

"Sir, we are so sorry. We are willing to compensate you. Please don't be angry, and please don't spread this around."

Li Ji was a little confused.

Are you using all my words?
Didn't SharkBeat bite the prototype to pieces?
He noticed that other staff members around him began to stop the filming.

He glanced again at the saleswoman's face, which was flushed red like a pig's liver from anxiety.

Li Ji suddenly understood.

He knew that Shark's teeth could crush Xiangguo's phone, but others didn't.

No one on Earth would believe that a 10-year-old could bite a cell phone in half.

Everyone's first reaction was that the Xiangguo phone had a major quality problem, as it could be chewed up by a 10-year-old child.

As one of the world's top-ranked technology giants in terms of stock price, such a major quality incident is bound to have a tremendous impact on the technology sector.

No wonder the staff were so nervous.

The other party is now desperate to keep this matter from leaking out, and most importantly, they want to silence the parent involved by offering compensation.

I'm afraid they'll have to be taken into a small, dark room to sign a confidentiality agreement soon.

"Can we discuss the compensation issue in detail in the office?"

The sales associate was so panicked his heart was about to jump out of his chest. He had never encountered anything like this before; it was a serious brand crisis.

He didn't know how to handle it, but taking the person in charge into custody was definitely the right thing to do. He would leave the rest to the store manager and headquarters.

Li Ji and his colleagues followed the sales assistant to the office on the second floor.

A commotion broke out in the store, with several customers arguing with the staff, apparently because the staff wanted to delete the videos on their phones.

They went into an office, and the other person closed the door.

Li Ji and the other two sat at the table waiting.

Shark Baby counted on her fingers, completely bewildered, with no idea what was about to happen.

"What are you trying to do?"

Dailu crossed her arms and said casually, "It's a PR issue, meow. There was a quality problem with the product, and they're afraid that leaks would damage their reputation, meow."

"You're very perceptive." It was rare for Li Ji to see Dailulu so human-like.

"Our company does this all the time, meow. If something goes wrong, we just pay hush money, meow."

"Your family is really skilled in this business."

A moment later, a middle-aged man in a sharp suit walked in, his name tag reading: Manager.

He did indeed hand over a confidentiality agreement.

"The compensation is negotiable. All you need to do is sign this confidentiality agreement and promise not to leak what happened today."

Li Ji held the pen, looking at the contract in front of him, feeling hesitant.

He recalled that Xiangguo's seventh-generation products had experienced large-scale audio chip quality problems, which directly led to a sharp drop in the company's stock price.

Although this was an isolated incident, it has no substantial connection with product quality.

But when a video of a child biting a phone and breaking it is posted online, no matter how many quality inspection reports are presented, the public won't believe it, right?

It was inevitable that the incident would be leaked, and Xiangguo Company will certainly do its best to delete it and conduct public relations.

Deleting posts is easy; just bribe the platform.

The most difficult people to deal with are the parties involved.

But as long as the parties involved do not compromise, there will be a constant stream of busybodies joining the condemnation.

The media, social media, and business partners keep hyping this up by relying on the parties involved.

After all, a tall tree catches the wind, and there are too many people who want Xiangguo Company to fall.

Li Ji never expected that he was just accompanying Dai Lulu to buy a mobile phone.

Now it has become a three-on-one battle against the world's three largest tech giants by market capitalization.

"Sign or not sign?"

"It's such a difficult choice."

Thinking of this, Li Ji's lips unconsciously curled up into a smile.
