Chapter 553: Ominous Clouds Gather
Chapter 553: Ominous Clouds Gather
At first, Qin Yun could engrave three Level 1 Wealth Gathering Arrays at once, and after about ten hours, he would be fully recovered and engrave three more.In other words, in one day, he could engrave six Wealth Gathering Arrays himself!
Now more than ten days have passed, and just as the system said, his spiritual power has significantly strengthened! He can now engrave four Wealth Gathering Arrays at once!
"Now I can engrave four Level 1 Wealth Gathering Arrays at once, and I can do it every nine hours! Calculating it this way, I can engrave an average of ten Level 1 Wealth Gathering Arrays a day," Qin Yun thought to himself.
Ten Level 1 Wealth Gathering Arrays are equivalent to two Level 2 Wealth Gathering Arrays!
Two a day, that’s sixty in a month!
That’s more than the system opens each month with the Wealth Gathering Arrays.
These opened Wealth Gathering Arrays include Level 1, Level 2, Level 3, and Level 4, but they are roughly equivalent to about thirty Level 2 Wealth Gathering Arrays when averaged out.
Almost twice as much as what Qin Yun engraves himself!
That is to say, Celestial Fortune can not only expand to one province per month, but can directly occupy the market of two or even three provinces in a month!
"As time goes by, the speed at which I can engrave Level 1 Wealth Gathering Arrays will continue to increase. Calculating it this way, it might not even take half a year for me to completely dominate the domestic market, and also the United States market!" Qin Yun thought to himself.
Over in the United States, Celestial Fortune’s second clothing brand, klucky, is also expanding simultaneously.
"Knock knock knock."
As he was thinking, Qin Xiaotao knocked on the door and entered the office.
"President Qin, something has happened..." Qin Xiaotao’s face was full of seriousness at this moment.
He handed some documents to Qin Yun.
Qin Yun took the documents, glanced at them, and after reading them, his face instantly became gloomy.
"Seven people have joined together to sue Celestial Fortune, saying our shampoo is an inferior brand? They used the shampoo and ended up hospitalized?"
Qin Yun’s face was gloomy. After a period of calm, something happened again at Celestial Fortune.
"What’s the situation with those seven people?" Qin Yun asked.
Qin Xiaotao said, "It’s still under investigation, the specifics are unclear, but those seven people are making a scene in the hospital, demanding a huge compensation from Celestial Fortune!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Yun frowned, thinking, Is this a deliberate framing? A scam? Or some other reason?
He waited, and within less than ten minutes, Qin Xiaotao had more news.
"What’s the outcome?" Qin Yun asked directly.
Looking at the information, Qin Xiaotao quickly said, "President Qin, the situation is roughly clarified. The scalps of those seven people were indeed harmed."
Qin Yun asked in a deep voice, "Did they use our Celestial Fortune Shampoo?"
Qin Xiaotao shook his head but nodded again, saying, "The shampoo had our Celestial Fortune branding, packaging, and everything identical. However, according to the investigation, we didn’t have any cooperation with the supermarket where they bought the Celestial Fortune Shampoo."
Upon hearing this, Qin Yun suddenly understood and said in a deep voice, "So the small supermarket is selling counterfeit products?"
As he was speaking, suddenly someone else came in to report from outside.
"President Qin, our Celestial Fortune Shampoo is now trending on social media," the person hurriedly said.
Qin Yun checked his phone and indeed saw that Celestial Fortune Shampoo was trending.
A video appeared before his eyes, showing the seven hospitalized people being interviewed by reporters, and the entire footage was uploaded online.
Their scalps were spotty, causing anyone who saw it to feel their own scalp tingle.
At this time, abusive comments flooded the internet.
"How can Celestial Fortune Shampoo have such big issues, with such terrible damage to the scalp? Good thing I didn’t buy it!"
"What a garbage company! They dare sell such shampoo?"
"What is the Commerce Bureau doing? They should quickly shut down their factory."
The comment section was full of offensive remarks.
However, amidst these malicious comments, there were also some defending Celestial Fortune.
"Are you stupid? This is obviously someone framing Celestial Fortune."
"Exactly, I’ve been using Celestial Fortune Shampoo for months, and there’s not a single side effect, my hair has only grown more. Not only me, my parents, relatives, and friends all use it, and none of them experienced what’s in that video."
"Right now, Celestial Fortune Shampoo’s live demonstration is still ongoing, and the results are obvious. Are those people blind?"
"Who’s behind this smear campaign?"
"Do you really need to ask? It’s the competitors! With Celestial Fortune Shampoo working so well, once it truly expands, how much market could other shampoos possibly have? If I were those competitors, I’d be panicking too."
These people have used Celestial Fortune Shampoo, so they know its specific effects and trust it greatly.
However, everything needs time to expand into the market.
So far, only around one million people have used Celestial Fortune Shampoo, which actually isn’t a very large proportion.
Therefore, the positive comments are significantly outnumbered by the defamatory ones.
Scrolling through several videos, three out of four were defamatory videos about Celestial Fortune Shampoo!
"It seems the other side came prepared!" Qin Yun said in a deep voice.
Previously, there were no signs, and now suddenly there’s an outburst. This is clearly a well-planned action.
Under this exposure, even the live demonstrations of the Celestial Fortune Shampoo were being accused of fraud.
"Brother Xiaotao, immediately go and arrange for the disclosed information to be made public," Qin Yun instructed.
"Got it." Qin Xiaotao promptly went to make the arrangements.
But it didn’t take long before something else erupted online.
"Celestial Fortune Toothpaste contains harmful substances!"
"Celestial Fortune Clothing stores bully customers; the clothes being sold tear at the slightest pull."
...
One video after another appeared.
Someone had used Celestial Fortune Toothpaste and their gums were very swollen.
And in another video, at a Celestial Fortune Clothing store, someone tried to return clothes, and the fabric tore like tofu with just a slight pull, but the smug clerk just drove them out.
These customers who came to return goods and were driven out were full of anger, exposing everything in the video, even saying they would bear the responsibility and sue Celestial Fortune.
All of a sudden, the online buzz about Celestial Fortune surged again.
"Whoa, why so much about Celestial Fortune?"
"What company is Celestial Fortune? How come I don’t know about it?"
"Damn! I looked it up, Celestial Fortune is a company founded by a university student in Jinling, it now has hundreds of clothing stores, designs shampoo, toothpaste, and other products, and employs nearly ten thousand people!"
"Which university student is so badass?"
"Badass? Counterfeit products are rampant! That shampoo gave me goosebumps, and as for the clothing store, the arrogant attitude of the staff there makes me want to hit them!"
Not only in short videos, but even some news feeds and other media are exposing this Celestial Fortune matter!
Those who exposed it voluntarily went online, hoping to get help from the public.
These people even revealed their home addresses and so on, clearly not faking it, and really being oppressed by Celestial Fortune.
