Chapter 189: Picturesque
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
After 15 million memory chips were transported to a warehouse on Earth with the help of human replica robots, the memory chip shortage issue was temporarily solved. After it was transported to the foundry, there were no more problems for Xing Hai Technologies to fulfill their promise and account for the parents of sixth and ninth graders within two months.
Speaking of which, should they expose Samsin? They could directly proclaim that Samsin banned the sales of their memory chips, thus putting pressure on them within the Z nation and online forums and setting off a ‘boycott Samsin’ wave. Or they could direct the anger of the parents to Samsin and let them taste what was it like to shoot themselves in the foot. The same idea popped up in the brains of Chen Jin and the other executives of Xing Hai Technologies, as this was the best way to divert the attention from them.
But after some thought, Chen Jin scrapped the idea. “I have a way to solve the memory chip shortage issue and have already found a new source of supply. Unveiling the truth and exposing Samsin is something that we need to do sooner or later, but not now. If we were to promptly shift the blame to Samsin, the parents would still not forgive us and would only put the blame back on us. They would ask, why didn’t we find a stable source of supply? Why didn’t we consider the risk of supply shortage beforehand? Anyways we will still be in the wrong. Besides, Xing Hai Technologies has now become the needle in the eye of many western forces. If we were to fall into a passive and ugly state, they will rejoice, they will celebrate, and will definitely want us in greater trouble. If we were to denounce Samsin, then announce our problem solved, it will only alert our enemies and provoke greater suppression! Wait until we get over this crisis. Heheh, let us see if they can still laugh!” Chen Jin had a murderous look in his eyes.
The executives cheered.
“Amazing! So amazing!”
“We pretend that we are weak, let our enemies lower their guard, and then we strike back!”
“After we solve our problems and appease all those parents, we unsheath our sword in the face of the public! I believe that none of our people will put the blame on us, they will all be on our side!”
“When that happens, Samsin will probably have a rather interesting expression on their faces. Then, we could call for the locals to support local-made chips and get rid of Samsin once and for all!”
“I succumb to you Mr. Chen, plowing on them hard with you felt better than an orgasm!” This executive member looked at Chen Jin adoringly with his face flushed. But after he said those word, countless of people looked at him with rich expressions, trying to hold in their laughter.
“Shoo! I’m not interested in gay sh*t,” Chen Jin chided him while laughing.
“Hahahaha!”
Laughter burst out in the conference room.

On the 1st of February, 20X1, the cold current that streamed through two days ago made temperatures slump by three to four degrees.
Shang Hai was a city located along coastal areas, and therefore had higher air humidity. Adding on the cold current from the northern region, when one walked outside, the temperature perceived by their skin would feel even colder than temperatures of minus eleven or twelve degrees of northern regions. Many northerners that came to Shang Hai have said, “I’m frozen,””Even colder than my home in the northeast,””I’m huddling myself and I’m still shivering,””Sealed in my blanket all day every day can’t seem to break the seal.”
Even so, after the bombardment of ads that persisted for nearly a month and the official release of the movie trailer that had very refined pictures, many people, whether they were man or woman, old or young, they all wrapped themselves in thick clothing and rushed to the cinema against the chilling breeze to watch their most anticipated locally produced anime movie: “Wa-Wah Robot 2 — A New Family.” Today was the day “Wa-wah 2” premiered.
Song Xiao Ping was dragged by his girlfriend Peng Shan Shan as they trotted to a cinema. Peng Shan Shan’s face was filled with eagerness, and she turned her head to look at him from time to time and said, “Quickly, walk faster.”
“I saw the trailer, the first movie was about kidnapping, the second movie now is about ruffians, it’s all about the same pattern. Is it necessary to look forward to the movie that much?” Song Xiao Ping was rather speechless.
“Don’t you think that Wa-wah is really adorable? This year, they added the Bang Bang robot, which is also very cute, haha! I’m so looking forward to it!” Peng Shan Shan’s vision was suffused with stars, and she folded her hands. “I heard that the Bang Bang robot is Xing Hai Technologies hit product this year, whatever function Bang Bang has in the movie, Bang Bang has it in real life! This makes me look forward to it even more!”
Looking at his girlfriend, Song Xiao Ping was rendered speechless. Okay, you girls definitely can’t resist buying anything that’s cute. Can’t you see that this movie is just an ad? he thought. Spend two hours in the cinema just to watch an ad? Song Xiao Ping shrugged his shoulders. Okay, he would do this just to accompany his girlfriend and at the same time enjoy the nice pictures. Therefore, he paid 46 bucks for the movie ticket!

At Happiness Court, Chen Jin and his family went out well equipped. They galloped to Wanda shopping complex which was merely 200 meters from their area. Similarly, there was still an extra familiar figure along with their squad.
“Su Yun, how’s Xiao Lan? Is she out of danger? Are the treatments effective?” asked his mother He Li, who was walking beside Su Yun.
“Yes, everything is going smoothly. I went to visit Xiao Lan yesterday and she was already able to walk on foot. Just that her hair is all gone, what a waste.”
“Hair will still grow back. Everything will be fine as long as she regains her health.”
“Yeah.” Su Yun agreed to her while nodding her head.
Chen Jin was walking along the side, holding his phone and texting in the family group chat.
Chen Jin: Little Peng, how’s your finals this year, did you bring back the first place?
Su Zipeng: Nope, I scored 701, there’s one b*****d in my class that got 705! I just got the second in class and the fifteenth in school. I’m still too late with the Little Star learning machine. If I were to get it two months earlier, things would be different.
One could see that he was very frustrated. At that moment, Su Tiantian came in and said: Hey brother-in-law, take a picture of you with my sister! Like really guys, you guys have been together for so long and we only have a few pictures of you both together, I want to see you with my old sis.
Su Zipeng followed: Yeah bro, take a picture.
Mother Su, on the other hand, sent a voice message: “Little Chen, quick, take a picture with my Yun Yun, I want to have a look at Yun Yun.”
Chen Jin replied: Ok.
He walked to Su Yun’s side, held her shoulders all of a sudden and moved his head so close to her cheeks that they became almost stuck to each other. He opened his selfie camera, held his phone in front of the woman and said, “Hello pretty, give me a smile and let me complete my selfie mission.”
Su Yun was taken aback. After she had a whiff of the manly scent on him, she blushed as her heartbeat began to accelerate. Responding to the man’s selfie request, Su Yun slightly lowered her head and smiled shyly as two strains of her silky hair dangled around her forehead. Under low light conditions, she looked beauteous amidst the picture’s haziness.
Chen Jin sent the picture to the family group chat.
In just a short while, the family group responded enthusiastically.
Su Tiantian: (emoji) (emoji) (emoji) you guys are so gorgeous!
Su Zipeng: Eh sis, are you blushing? Your blushing face is picturesque.
Su Tiantian: A match made in heaven!
Mother Su’s voice message: “Yun Yun, quickly make this your profile picture, this picture is too good!”
Father Su’s voice message: “Yes Yun Yun, use this picture as your profile pic, it does really look awesome.”
Scrolling through these messages, Su Yun’s face became even redder. She was pinching her fingers as she helplessly looked at Chen Jin, not knowing what to do.
“Change it then, I think that it’s nice too.” Chen Jin nodded at her. He kept on looking at the photo on his phone. He was mesmerized. The woman in the photo was truly picturesque.
Su Yu lowered her head and gave out a light snort.
He Li and Chen Gang looked at each other as they both smiled out of content.
