As soon as marshmallows appeared on TV, people with a keen sense of smell immediately discovered the business opportunities in it. Even if some people didn't watch the talk show at the time, they learned about it through various channels afterwards.The first reaction of many people is to annex, acquire, or even buy shares at worst.However, all kinds of means have not been used. After learning about the background of this small business, the conspirators immediately stopped their efforts and began to make contact in a proper manner.

After Rong Yuan and his wife refused all requests to talk to them about the company's shares, countless orders came like snowflakes.The price of marshmallows is cheaper than anyone thinks. After fully considering all factors such as production materials, machines, sites, and wages of employees, the cost price of each marshmallow is 63 yuan, and the larger the output, the higher the cost will be. reduce accordingly.After discussing, the two set the price of each marshmallow at [-] yuan.

Compared with some companies selling clothes that cost a few dollars for hundreds of dollars, and cosmetics that cost more than a dozen dollars for thousands of dollars, the pricing value of marshmallows is really conscientious. Many people have heard of this price. They all thought they missed a zero.Then I checked again and again-is it a discount for the opening?How long is the discount?Is there a purchase limit?

In fact, for Rong Yuan, the reason why the price is so low couldn’t be simpler—he doesn’t want anyone to be discouraged from marshmallows because of the reason of “can’t afford it”, and then they can’t save themselves when encountering danger, causing some The merit points that he could have obtained disappeared.If the price is relatively low, even the poorest people can save some money to buy one or two spares for their families.

In order to prevent some stupid guys from only considering cotton candy as a new and interesting toy, he also specially designed various advertisements to be broadcast repeatedly on TV and major video sites, telling everyone that this thing should be used in a rude and direct way !

——Are you still worried that your child will be killed instantly by a drunk/speeding driver on the way to school?In the ad, a car at least fifty miles fast crashes into the white-faced actor. In an instant, this little fresh meat who is desperate for fame starts the marshmallow in time, turning into a white ball and being hit by the car. A few minutes later, he Crawled out of the sugar ball unscathed!

——As one of the passengers in the car, do you still worry about being squeezed into dumpling stuffing when a car accident happens?As long as there is marshmallow, under a certain pressure, it can expand outwards and prop up a space, and internally can provide all-round protection for the life wrapped inside, even a baby will not be squeezed to death by suffocation.

——Are you still worried that the plane will crash in bad weather or neglected maintenance?In the airplane that exploded into a ball of fire in the advertisement, passengers pressed the buttons on the ring (that is, the control switch of the cotton candy), and dozens of white balls fell from a height of thousands of meters like dumplings, and landed in the sea. Falling on the mountain, on the farmland, on the lightning rod... Then the passengers were rescued one by one safe and sound (of course, this advertisement is basically made of special effects).

——Are you still worried that there will be a sudden earthquake or mudslides will be buried?As long as the marshmallow is turned on, even if it is crushed by dozens of buildings, the soft and elastic structure of the marshmallow ball will provide a safe space (of course not very comfortable), and the edible candy can Sustain at least one month of life (it is best not to treat it as a daily food when it is a last resort, you must know that marshmallow has greatly sacrificed its nutrients in order to achieve its various magical functions), and can provide rescuers with sufficient food. Rescue time.

Rong Yuan asked someone to shoot more than 30 short commercials in a row, ranging from a few seconds to a maximum of a dozen seconds, but captured all the first-aid possibilities he could think of, almost hand in hand Teach others how to take care of their own lives.Under his influence, many netizens also enthusiastically discussed various uses of marshmallows on the Internet, and the clarity of their brains is amazing.

The advertisements filmed in a short period of time are actually not sophisticated, and the acting skills of the extras are also very exaggerated, but the effect is very remarkable.

Most notably, the sales of marshmallows soared, and people lined up for days and nights in front of the marshmallow outlets in every city just to grab a few marshmallows.Because of the tight sales volume, the produced marshmallows were bought by outside merchants almost as soon as they left the factory. Due to the shortage of supply, a limited sales strategy had to be implemented. Each customer could only buy a maximum of three at a time with their ID card.The Tang Country is vast and densely populated, once the huge purchase volume is displayed, it is like a bottomless pit that cannot be filled, and can swallow all the commodities.Today's domestic demand cannot be met, and many orders from abroad can only be postponed indefinitely.

Soon, a real case that proved the effect of marshmallow appeared in the news: a bus in a tourist mountain area ran out of control and rushed out of the winding road. Except for two passengers who used the marshmallow-elastic version in time, all the other 46 people died. .

A fire broke out on the 23rd floor of a high-rise residential building. The fire quickly engulfed the upper and lower floors. At this height, the fire ladder cannot reach, and it is difficult to put out the fire with water. However, a two-year-old boy who lived on the 23rd floor survived because of his The mother wrapped her child whole in marshmallow balls and threw it out of the window in a desperate attempt, only to die in the fire herself.

……

The frequent occurrence of such cases in a short period of time has made many people truly realize the great effect of marshmallows. The most intuitive thing is that the number of people waiting in line outside the point of sale has increased several times again. At first glance, there are still people who don’t know People thought that some superstar was going to hold a concert.

A middle-aged man with a haggard face in the team said to the camera during an interview with the reporter: "I don't know how I lived when I didn't have it before. Now, if the child doesn't have this a-1, I don't feel at ease. Let him out."

"Excuse me, how long have you been waiting here?" The reporter asked, and the camera scanned the messy quilts, insulation boxes and small mats on the ground.

"It's been three days and two nights." The man looked at the 'Long Snake' in front of him and said, "It may take more than a day."

"Then what are you going to do with the a-1 cotton candy you bought?" the reporter asked again.

"Of course it's for self-defense." The man said without hesitation, obviously already thinking about it, "One for my wife, one for my child, and one for my mother. My wife has also asked for leave, and I plan to queue up at the back starting this afternoon."

Like this man, in order to protect the health of his family, he put down his work, study and other affairs. There are many people queuing up to buy marshmallows. Some people see the business opportunities and resell the marshmallows they bought at a high price. Originally 100 yuan a piece The price has been fired to more than 8000 at night, even if it is priceless.Especially in the sales of marshmallows, there is basically no scalpers caused by staff colluding with others, because whenever someone shows a tendency to use power for personal gain, he is immediately exposed, dismissed, and held accountable. The force of imagination, sales regulation are also strictly unimaginable.

……

One month has passed, and "Rongyuan" and "Marshmallow" have been ranked No. 1 in terms of search terms popularity on the Internet. People's enthusiasm for them has not declined with the passage of time, but has become more and more intense.Open any magazine or newspaper, and you can find news related to cotton candy from it; no matter which news page is opened, the little thing with a very cute name must be at the top of the list.

After the initial excitement passed, Zhou Yuan became a little uneasy.She walked into Rong Yuan's lounge in the factory with a newspaper, and Jin Yang happened to be there too, he was seriously reviewing a bunch of documents, but the owner of the room was lying on the sofa as if sleeping.

Zhou Yuan didn't feel that Rong Yuan was being lazy, because she knew that Rong Yuan looked like this when he was thinking about problems.

Hearing the voice, Jin Yang looked up, saw Zhou Yuan's worried expression, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Look, what are you making up?" Zhou Yuan handed the newspaper to Jin Yang and said angrily.

Jin Yang took it and glanced at it, then smiled, and covered Rong Yuan's face with his hands.Rong Yuan picked it up and opened one eye to scan it. This can be regarded as a relatively regular official newspaper in City A. A photo of Rong Yuan took up most of the page, and more than 90.00% of the text is estimated to be from reporters. The details of the story were patched together in his brain, anyway, apart from the name, he basically described two people who were completely different from Rong Yuan.

"What's so angry about this?" Rong Yuan said in confusion, "He didn't speak ill of me."

In fact, instead of negative descriptions in the report, Rong Yuan was described so perfectly that he hardly seemed like a real person.

"Don't you think... don't you think... that's not quite right?" Zhou Yuan thought for a while, and then struggled to find the most appropriate description from the vocabulary in his mind: "To kill you! Yes, isn't it just kill you?" ?"

Jin Yang's smile restrained a bit.

"Praise...you can't bear it, it's called praise, and you can bear it, you're famous. I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of?" Rong Yuan said indifferently.

"But..." Zhou Yuan still felt uneasy.

"Zhou Yuan," Jin Yang paused, and said, "The higher-ups communicated with us in advance about this matter."

In fact, before the talk show was broadcast, people from the Academy of Sciences once came to test whether the actual effect of marshmallow was really as good as they said.If there was any exaggeration and deviation in it, the current publicity would not show such a flourishing situation that frightens Zhou Yuan.

"Above? Communicate?"—how could I not know?

Zhou Yuan recounted it blankly, and suddenly felt that since the last time he retreated from the battle, he seemed to be pulled down by those two people, creating a clear sense of distance.

Jin Yangdao: "It was my grandfather who called and said that the higher-ups wanted to set a model. And it's not bad for us, and there will be every kind of convenience that can be given. You see, the land you applied for before has been approved. Construction will start in a week. If it goes well, several more production lines will be added in two months."

"Oh, so that's how it is." Zhou Yuan felt relieved.She carefully looked at Rong Yuan who closed her eyes again, sat sideways on a round stool beside her, and began to help Jin Yang sort out the files.

Zhou Yuan had unconditional trust in Jin Yang. When she let go of her worries, she didn't see the imperceptible worry in Jin Yang's eyes.

The official propaganda of Sugar Country was just the beginning, and it was very rational and restrained at that time.Afterwards, partly because of the help of people with good intentions, partly because the people below overly understood the meaning of the above, and partly because the general public followed suit and sought after, the situation gradually got out of control and became a raging fire.Now Rong Yuan is like standing on the cusp of a storm, he can only move forward but not retreat, otherwise the greater the force pushing him up, the greater the force of counterattack when he retreats.

Rong Yuan doesn't seem very worried about this, he has always been so confident that he is almost arrogant.After the cotton candy was successfully produced, he basically let pea watch the production process and the machinery without any problems, and basically let go of everything else. Now he is focusing his attention on the next "invention".Because the speed of his brain's thinking and calculations far exceeds the speed of handwriting or computer calculations, he is now used to doing a lot of calculations and analysis in his mind, and only writes down one or two strokes on paper whenever he gets something, and then keep thinking.

……

Between two rows of small residential buildings painted in colorful colors, like a fairy tale world, there is not a flat street, but a small river with blue waves.The exquisite wooden boat drifts in the river. The woman with shoulder-length hair is leaning in the boat. She neither paddles nor picks up the camera set aside to take pictures. Instead, she half-closes her eyes and enjoys the afternoon drowsily. warm sunlight.She didn't even wear sunscreen, and her tanned skin gave off a different kind of wild charm.

"Hi~lu, good afternoon." A small boat passed by leisurely, and the man on board greeted her loudly, with deep and charming blue eyes like the Mediterranean Sea, as if full of affection.

"Good afternoon, Pete." Lu Yao said lazily.

When the two boats passed each other, Pete threw a stack of newspapers over and said, "Lu, today's newspaper has news about your country! SUPER-BOY!"

"Ok?"

Lu Yao opened the newspaper.A half-length photo of Rong Yuan was printed on the middle page, only half the size of a palm, and it didn't take up much space, but she saw him at the first sight.

Familiar faces, strange teenagers.

"Rong Yuan...Rong...Could it be..."

Lu Yao froze, the newspaper slipped out of her hand and fell straight into the river.
