Because the DeepBlue smart bracelet uses the best materials, its cost is very high. Despite having a profit margin of only one percent, the final selling price is still 360 yuan.
That evening, the newly opened official flagship stores on the two major shopping platforms generated over a million yuan in sales, shocking many people.
By the next day, sales had exceeded two million.
By the seventh day, it had generated over three million in sales, selling nearly ten thousand Deep Blue smart bracelets in a single day, which drew attention from many people.
The effectiveness of the profit card with a limit of tens of millions of yuan surprised Li Mu a little. If handled properly, it would be no problem to cultivate one or two brands in the future.
With such strong sales, the second batch of OEM orders has also begun to be launched.
First, it's still Shangpin's Feng series of apparel. This time, they placed an OEM order worth 300 million yuan and paid a deposit of 100 million yuan.
For DeepBlue smart bracelets, the order volume has also increased significantly compared to the last time. This time, Li Mu placed an order for the OEM production of 500,000 smart bracelets.
The two new companies launched two product lines, both of which sold very well and achieved success, giving everyone in both companies complete confidence.
Everyone is now highly motivated, and their recruitment efforts have become even more attractive to talent.
Recently, under Li Mu's leadership, both companies have expanded significantly, attracting many high-end talents in the industry with high salaries, and their future prospects are becoming increasingly bright.
Even venture capitalists have approached them. Li Mu naturally declined, but it represented the company's future prospects.
Chapter 486 Zombie World
Time flies, and several more days have passed. Seeing that the company is developing smoothly, Li Mu is relieved.
Soon, the system mission appeared again. This time, he was to go to a world where everyone had turned into zombies due to a virus leak.
Li Mu was taken aback. The previous world was a high-temperature apocalypse, but this world had turned into a zombie apocalypse. After consulting the system, he learned that, like the previous world, it was just an ordinary world without any extraordinary powers.
Li Mu tried searching for relevant information online, but it was mostly movies and novels. That makes sense; aside from movies and novels, what real-world experience could he learn from in this regard?
The system didn't give him much time. An hour later, Li Mu was ready, and with a flash of white light, he disappeared.
Li Mu silently opened his eyes, looked around, and found himself in a nicely decorated bedroom. After sorting through the information in his mind, he quickly figured out his current identity.
His name is still Li Mu, and he looks similar to the real world, but he is a bit older, thirty-three years old this year.
His experience in this world is a bit special. He was admitted to a military academy at the age of eighteen and graduated from the military academy at the age of twenty-two, where he became a platoon leader in a reconnaissance company.
At 25, he joined the special forces; at 28, he joined the peacekeeping force, spending most of his time stationed abroad and carrying out missions.
Until last year, at the age of thirty-two, Li Mu was injured during a mission. Although it was not serious, he still chose to retire.
Born an orphan with no relatives in his hometown, Li Mu came to Xia City with over a million yuan in demobilization pay.
Having grown accustomed to military life, I found it difficult to adjust to the city all at once. The few jobs I held over the past year were all in related industries.
For example, he was hired as an instructor by the special police team, and recently he was invited to be an instructor by a security company. With Li Mu's qualifications and experience, doing these things is naturally a piece of cake.
After processing the information in his mind, Li Mu turned on his computer and looked up some relevant news. He discovered that there were already signs of a zombie crisis; there were many related videos and messages online, although they were quickly deleted. This made Li Mu realize the seriousness of the situation.
Faced with an imminent crisis, he doesn't have several months to prepare; perhaps in just a few days, the zombie outbreak will be widespread.
I checked the system task: Survive in Xia City for five years.
Xia City, which is the city where Lin Rui is currently located. It is a second-tier city, with a population of over ten million including its districts and counties.
Although it is inland, the conditions in all aspects are good. It has mountains and rivers, beautiful scenery, and convenient transportation, making it a very livable place. This is also the reason why Li Mu chose to develop in Xiacheng.
Thinking about having to survive in Xia City for five years, he frowned. Was he going to have to live a life of hiding for five years, just like in the last world?
However, a zombie apocalypse may break out soon, leaving no time to build a suitable survival base. To make the most of these five years, sometimes it's necessary to be proactive and create a suitable environment.
All of this requires the support of force, whether it is to deal with zombies or some people with ulterior motives.
Time was of the essence. Having figured all this out, I felt that even resigning would be a waste of time, so I took a long leave of absence. The most important thing right now was to acquire a batch of weapons.
Naturally, this can't be done domestically; you have to go abroad.
Li Mu left his bedroom and climbed to the rooftop. This was a mid-to-high-end residential area, with average prices around 20,000 yuan per square meter. Li Mu's demobilization pay plus the money from the sale of his family's old house was enough to make a down payment.
The apartment he bought was on the top floor, 180 square meters, and the developer also gave him a rooftop terrace of over 100 square meters for free. It was precisely because of the magnificent view from the rooftop terrace that Li Mu decided to buy the apartment.
Fortunately, the house itself was fully furnished, which gave him the means to buy furniture and appliances; otherwise, it would still be a bare shell!
The residential building has a total of 32 floors. Li Mu stood on the top floor and looked around. The view was good. Although it was not in the city center, the area was still quite prosperous.
Looking at the bustling crowds, I wonder what it will be like after the zombie outbreak.
Having spent so many years abroad, Li Mu already possessed a passport. Furthermore, his involvement in peacekeeping missions gave him an understanding of the black markets and underground arms dealers in various regions.
For him, as long as he has money, it's quite easy to acquire a batch of weapons from abroad.
Thinking about ways to make money, Li Mu chose the simplest method, the old one. That day, Li Mu didn't sleep a wink, found three common vulnerabilities in the Windows system, and while booking international flights online, he also posted these vulnerabilities on the dark web.
Before boarding the plane, Li Mu hired a solar photovoltaic company to install solar panels and energy storage equipment on the roof. He also hired a professional company to reinforce the doors and windows, and even replaced all the glass with double-glazed bulletproof glass.
Time was of the essence, so we had to be very careful with our spending. After finishing all that, we rushed to the airport.
As soon as the plane landed overseas, Li Mu didn't waste a moment. He immediately went to the local black market, contacted underground arms dealers, and submitted a list of items he needed to purchase.
By this time, the three common operating system vulnerabilities had been sold on the dark web, fetching a total of $8.5 million, which was more than enough.
As expected of a powerful underground arms dealer, the entire procurement list provided by Li Mu was quickly delivered.
To deal with zombies, weak firearms won't do; they need to be large-caliber. Li Mu prefers sniper rifles.
This time, he purchased three Barrett M82 heavy sniper rifles. This is a powerful long-range sniper rifle primarily used to destroy sensitive enemy equipment from a distance, such as parked aircraft, radar installations, trucks, and various other important assets. It is also sometimes used to destroy explosive munitions from a distance.
Due to its high power and penetrating strength, this rifle can also be used to strike enemy soldiers hiding behind cover or walls. Its powerful performance can easily penetrate bricks and concrete.
A 12.7mm bullet, when it hits a person, will leave a huge hole, and may even kill half of the body.
Such power is just right for dealing with zombies.
In addition to the three Barrett pistols, Li Mu also asked for two large-caliber Desert Eagle pistols.
The rest was all used to buy bullets, especially bullets for the Barrett heavy sniper rifle. In the end, it cost seven million US dollars, and Li Mu's ten cubic meters of system space was completely filled.
Searching the news from that day, I found that the situation was getting more and more serious, and had even gotten out of the control of the authorities. Many countries have begun to discuss restricting the movement of people.
This includes taking an airplane.
Li Mu was startled. His mission required him to stay in Xia City, not abroad. Now that the matter was settled, he didn't want to waste a moment.
However, the tense situation made plane tickets difficult to buy. Li Mu could only obtain a ticket through the black market at a high price. As long as he could return home, spending a little money was nothing. Besides, money might not even be considered money anymore in the future.
Back in China, thanks to Li Mu's extra money to expedite the construction, the solar panels and batteries had already been installed; the doors and windows had been reinforced; and all the glass had been replaced with double-glazed bulletproof glass.
The locks throughout the entire house were replaced, greatly improving the house's security. These days, you not only have to guard against zombies, but also against people.
After finishing all that, Li Mu turned his attention back to the internet, where the situation was becoming increasingly dire.
He found many relevant videos and articles published by some self-media, although they were quickly blocked and deleted, the related news continued to spread.
On some forums and in discussion areas for related news, countless people are discussing this matter. Although many are worried, they still cannot believe that there are zombies.
Li Mu watched the news for a while, then, realizing time was tight, went outside to continue preparing. There were many people outside, and a small-scale buying frenzy had already begun. This was typical of the Chinese people—they liked to plan ahead and stockpile supplies no matter what happened.
Instead of rushing to the supermarket to buy things, he went to the wholesale market, hired several large trucks for transporting goods, and hired more than a dozen migrant workers.
They purchased one hundred cases of mineral water, one hundred cases of various beverages, one hundred cases of beer, and one hundred cases of pure milk.
We also purchased a batch of canned meat, canned fruit, and canned vegetables, as well as a considerable amount of sunflower seeds, cashews, and various nuts.
I also bought a lot of packaged cooked beef, roast chicken, pork knuckle, chicken legs, braised eggs, and braised pork with preserved vegetables; in addition, I bought a large quantity of various snacks. I also went to the pharmacy to buy a batch of medicines.
With several large trucks loaded with goods, Li Mu went to the waterworks and asked them to deliver two hundred bottles of bottled water directly to him.
A group of five or six cars then hurriedly returned to the residential area.
Fortunately, it wasn't the weekend; it was during working hours, so there weren't many people in the neighborhood. It took more than two hours for a dozen migrant workers to carry all the items to the rooftop via the elevator.
After finishing everything and settling the wages, Li Mu breathed a sigh of relief. He had rushed around and finally completed the preparations.
This world is different from the high-temperature apocalypse; there will be no shortage of resources in the future, which is why he didn't hoard so much stuff.
When the zombie apocalypse breaks out in the future, it's uncertain how many humans will survive. Li Mu has been reading a lot of news online in the past few days, including many supposedly insider information and leaks.
It is said that only a small percentage of people infected with the zombie virus develop immunity and escape unscathed. Most people, once infected, will inevitably turn into zombies.
Li Mu didn't know if the things online were just alarmist talk, but with this kind of thing, it's better to believe it's true than not.
If that's the case, the small number of people who develop immunity will inevitably be besieged after most people turn into zombies, and it's unknown how many will be able to escape.
With the country's food and supplies reserves, the surviving humans will not have to worry about food and supplies at all; they will have more than enough to eat.
Many zombie novels and movies love to depict this plot: a sudden outbreak of zombies turns almost everyone into zombies, with only a small number of people surviving.
However, these people still had to worry about supplies, scrambling for food and supplies everywhere. Some couldn't even find a bite to eat and starved to death.
Li Mu just couldn't understand it. With the zombie outbreak and such severe human casualties, barely one in a hundred surviving, how could there not be enough food?
In many movies and novels, a zombie outbreak occurs on one side, and then food runs out on the other. Intense conflicts erupt over food, which is truly baffling.
There is plenty of grain all over the country, especially in rural areas. If you want to look, you can easily find hundreds of thousands of kilograms of grain in any village. Why would there be a grain shortage?
Even if there is a food shortage, it would only happen a few years after the zombie outbreak, when some food has been stored for a long time and has become infested with insects or moldy.
The solution is quite simple: after a large reduction in population, there will be machinery and tools everywhere, so you can catch fish, hunt, or simply scatter some seeds on the ground.
With such abundant resources per capita, you won't go hungry no matter what you do.
