Chapter 42 [The only user](1/2)

There are three contact information below the email: an email address, an MSN account, and a phone number. I checked it and found that the phone number is very strange because at the beginning of the international area code in front, I couldn’t find which country it represents on the yellow page of the phone!

Is it an encrypted number?

It is obvious that the email contact is too slow and the long-distance international call is too troublesome. Because my phone at home does not have long-distance international call, I immediately logged in to the MSN and contacted the MSN account on the email.

The contact was very smooth this time, without any waiting, and the other party responded immediately!

"Hello, Mr. Chen Yang, I am the customer service staff of our company. Because you are a user from China, the company entrusts me to provide services to you. You can choose to communicate with me in English or Chinese."

The other party posted this sentence twice, once in Chinese and once in English.

"Chinese." My choice is undoubtedly clear.

"OK! I'm happy to answer any questions you have."

I thought about it and asked the first question: "Will this ring work for me when I don't wear it?"

Then I listed some of my recent experiences and briefly said them.

Then, I waited almost patiently for five minutes before I waited for the other party’s reply - I suddenly regretted that the phone at home did not have the international long-distance function enabled.

"Please forgive me, my Chinese input is a bit slow... Our company's answer is as follows: In theory, when you don't wear a ring, the ring will not bring you good luck. That is to say, when you remove the ring, you will not be able to get the luck enhancement function of the ring. However, given that you are using our trial products, without the measuring device, it may cause side effects of the ring. That is to say, your use of the ring improves luck that does not conform to the rules, affects your luck balance, and causes some... other aspects of inconvenience. We call it "side effects". In this case, this situation is not within the controllable range of the ring, so even if you have removed the ring, you will still suffer some bad results due to the previous misuse."

I sighed helplessly and wrote: "I have experienced all the things you said...especially the side effects, which have left a deep enough impression on me!"

"I'm sorry for causing you some trouble." The other party replied: "You can remove the ring so that the ring will no longer affect your life."

Extracted?

It's simple to say...

I sneered in my heart!

When a person really experiences the magic of this ring in his own right... who will endure this temptation?

Think about the good luck the ring brings me! Those amazing experiences!

I think no one will be willing to give up, right? Anyone, if they have experienced these things in me... then, as long as this person is not a lunatic, his only thought now is: how can he find a way to "correctly" use this ring without causing side effects!

If this effect can be achieved...

God, how wonderful life will be?!

I feel more and more that this ring is like a drug! When you are attracted by it, it is really hard to give up!

"I'm not going to give up on your product, I just want to find a way to use it correctly!" I sent it over.

I didn't say anything in my heart: It's a pity that your cheapest formal products cost several million! (and not RMB)! Even if I sell my own internal organs, I can't afford your products!

"Then, you can only choose to buy the company's official products." His return was indeed as I expected.

I thought about it and tentatively said, "I would like to ask, does your company provide replacement of parts that are easy to consume? I just give an example: For example, I bought a computer, but after using it for a while, the keyboard broke, and I need to change it... The computer company can't ask me to spend money to buy a computer again, right?"

The other party responded quickly: "You mean you want to... buy a measuring device separately?"

I sat in front of the computer and laughed silently, typing on the keyboard: "Is that OK?"

"Sorry, but I have to say: No."

Depend on……

I was silent for a while and sat in front of the computer in a daze.

Do I really have to find a way to buy a formal product? It's a few million dollars!

How did I get it? Go to rob a bank? Go to sell drugs? Go to smuggle?

Suddenly, I thought of a very interesting idea.

If, under normal circumstances, a person can get millions of dollars, he is already a very rich person, right? If he is already a very rich person, then this person should have achieved success and all he deserves... Then, under normal circumstances, he does not need such a ring that changes his luck at all.

What can this ring bring to people?

Isn't it money, power, beauty...

A person who can spend millions to buy a ring is already a successful and famous figure. Then he must have already possessed money, power and other things like beauties...

I don’t know what my mind is, but I sent this idea over by mistake!

Now, it was the other party’s turn to fall into silence!

For five minutes, the other party did not send another word.

Just when I almost thought he had left me alone and left me offline, the other party suddenly sent a message.

"Thank you for your advice."

The characters are very ordinary, but for some reason, I seemed to feel that the other person was in a very depressed mood.

Another minute later, a new message was sent: "Mr. Chen Yang, I don't know if it is right now. Can I contact you by phone? Is your phone number: 8625XXXXX" (Haha, 86 is the Chinese area code, and 25 is the area code of the city where the dance is located. Is the number behind it hidden?)

To be honest, I was a little flattered and hurriedly knocked on it: "YES" over.

A minute later, my phone rang, I picked it up and locked the door.

"Hello?"

"HELLO, Mr. Chen Yang." The voice on the phone was very clear, and the pronunciation in Chinese was very standard, but the tone was a bit stiff: "I am Raymond. We just talked on the Internet."

I didn't say anything, just said "yes".

The other party suddenly lowered his voice, as if sighing: "I was deeply touched by what you said just now... I think this is probably one of the biggest reasons for the failure of this project."

I still said "um" and didn't say anything else.

"Mr. Chen Yang, in fact, I am not a customer service staff member of the company. I am one of the team members involved in the research and development of this product..."

"Oh?" I was really surprised: "What do you mean is this ring you were involved in the research and development?"

"Yes." The tone was calm.

I said sincerely: "I must say, I admire your invention very much! It's so amazing!"

"Oh!" Raymond's tone became much more active and his speech speed increased a lot: "Oh, in fact, we have encountered many difficulties... In general, the reason why the ring itself can change the luck of the human body is because we accidentally discovered an unknown metal substance. This substance is very rare on the earth. We only found a small part in one place. We even suspected that this substance was not produced on the earth, but a meteorite or something from outer space... In short, after our research, we found that this metal substance can produce an effect similar to radiation, which affects the brain radio waves of the human body... Finally, we unravel the true nature of this substance, such as luck, step by step..."

This guy talked endlessly about R&D, but unfortunately I didn't have much interest in these things, so I interrupted him: "Oh, that's really amazing... At the same time, I was also surprised that a formal R&D member would contact me in person."

"Because I'm very curious." Raymond's voice seemed sincere on the phone: "Maybe you may not believe what I said...but in fact, you are the first user to contact the company since the official launch of our project! You are the first and the only one so far. So... I'm very curious because you are the only user to contact us, so I contacted you personally and wanted to hear you talk about our products."

To be honest, I understand his approach very well. It seems that many online authors immediately want to get reviews from readers after writing novels, whether it is good or bad.

"But I'm very strange." I asked, "Why are I the only user who contacted you? What about the other users? None of you tracked the customer for investigation?"

Raymond was silent on the other end of the phone for a while, and then his voice became even deeper, as if he was a little hoarse, and as if he was a little hard to speak:

"This... I shouldn't have said this originally, but... it doesn't matter now... To be honest, so far, in this world, there are only two people who use our products, including you. In other words, we only sold two rings in total." He said this, his mood seemed a little depressed: "I spent billions of funds, but only two people used our results... This is simply our greatest shame!"

"Two...two?" I was stunned.

"Yes, there are only two! And you are using only trial products. The other user, although he used high-end formal products, seemed to believe in the works of this ring at all. It was just... It was a bit ashamed to say that when our sales staff came to see him, the generous rich man actually did not believe in our research and development results, but he was a generous and enthusiastic man who was willing to sponsor various scientific research careers, so he invested in a piece of our highest-end product. But in fact, he just paid for us to sponsor us purely. As for the ring he bought, it seemed that he had never used it. I guess it would be forever collected in one of his jewelry boxes."

"So..." I smiled bitterly.

Before I could say it, Raymond had already said it himself: "So, in fact, you are the only customer who 'used' our products." He began to smile bitterly: "Fortunately, your words just now suddenly woke me up. I finally understood why our products cannot be sold... Because our products are priced too high, but people who can afford this kind of product do not need it at all..."

To be honest, I want to laugh.

This Raymond is probably the kind of scientific research nerd.

I admit that the possibility I guess may... really have some possibility...

But I dare to bet with my head, most people, no, should be the vast majority of people reject this product, the only reason is that they don’t believe it at all!

This is obvious!

If it were you, suddenly one day someone came to the door and knocked on it and told you that they had a magical ring for you. As long as you wear this ring, you will be lucky and have great fortune...

Do you believe it or not?

It’s a ghost! Most people may even call the police!

"So...what is my request? Can you consider it..." I carefully raised this topic again.

"Oh..." Raymond's voice on the other end of the phone was a little embarrassed, and he spoke carefully: "I think I must explain it further... In fact, I contacted you today mainly to satisfy my spiritual curiosity. As for your requirements... to be honest, don't say that you just need to buy a measuring instrument... Even if you really have enough money to ask for a complete set of formal products... I'm afraid I can only say 'no' to you!"

"Why!" Seeing that hope was about to be shattered, I immediately became anxious!

"No," Raymond smiled bitterly: "You should have heard what I said just now... I said it's okay now. Actually, what I mean is that our project has been completely stopped. We have consumed too much money but have not benefited from it. So the institute stopped our project and we have decided to devote our energy and financial resources to the new invention research project! Because the project has stopped, we have not continued to produce this product. In other words, there are only two products in the world, one in your hands and the other in the rich man's home."

"..." I was speechless.

"I'm sorry for bringing you such bad news." Raymond's voice looked guilty: "But in order to thank you for satisfying my curiosity, I can give you a kind advice, which may be helpful to you."

"oh?"

"Well! That's it... the rich gentleman who owns another ring is a very generous gentleman, a collector of art works, and is happy to exchange collections with art lovers all over the world. Your only hope is to find a way to get that ring from him...or, a measuring device!"

"Is there no other way?"

"No." Raymond sighed.

I thought for a while: "Then... his ring is much more advanced than my trial product, right? What about the effect of using it? Isn't it more powerful?"

"That's of course!" Raymond's voice was very serious: "The trial items you wear are mixed with a very, very small amount of that special metal, but in the most expensive high-end products, there are much more metal substances added! At the same time, it will also promote the human brain to absorb more elements of luck!"
