Chapter 1006
At the end of the drama’s first season, the heroine finally got together with the male protagonist who was
abor contractor. Together, they persuaded the vigers and sessfully developed the vige,
building a resort that promoted tourism in the area. Because of that, everyone in the vige became rich
and lived in happiness, causing their vige to be known far and wide as a wealthy one.
At the beginning of the second season, the vige was envied by another vige. The resort was
defamed by hical reporters, causing its business to ck for a period of time.
Feeling extremely anxious, the heroine contacted Miles—her ex-boyfriend who worked as a reporter in
the city—to have him write an objective news report for them. Miles had be the newspaper’s editor-
in-chief after a few years, so the news report he wrote would certainly be read by many.
Showing up again, Miles came to the vige to uncover the actual situation. After learning of the truth, he
promised to write a news report for the heroine and inform the public of the actual situation.
Unexpectedly, the male protagonist stumbled upon their meeting and misunderstood them. Thinking that
they still had feelings for each other, he chased after Miles with a hoe in his hand, scaring Miles into
running along the river bank.
All the vigers came out and watched as the male protagonist chased after Miles by the river.
Frightened, Miles took out his cell phone and hurled it at the male protagonist, causing the male
protagonist’s head to bleed. Angered, the male protagonist smashed Miles’ cell phone using his hoe
before throwing Miles and his mobile device into the river.
The heroine was so frightened that she jumped into the river after Miles to save him. Shocked, the male
protagonist jumped into the river to save them both.
In the end, Miles was out of danger after being saved from drowning; he was quickly sent to the hospital.
With the heroine’s exnation, the male protagonist learned about what had actually happened, so he
bowed and apologized to Miles. Furthermore, he went down to the river himself and searched for ages to
retrieve Miles’ cell phone and camera that had fallen into the river.
Unfortunately, the camera broke after being submerged in the water for too long, and all important, work-
rted photos saved in it were all gone. Overwhelmed with regret, the male protagonist pped himself
across the face.
However, he was surprised when Miles’ cell phone managed to turn on, and some of the work-rted
photos Miles had taken were backed up on it.
In the end, Miles forgave the male protagonist since he was moved by thetter’s sincerity. Returning to
the city with the photos he had taken, he wrote a favorable news report for them and had it published on
the newspaper’s front page, attracting the society’s attention and clearing the vige of the false
usations. With that, the resort was able to resume its business.
The day the resort reopened for business, the male protagonist invited Miles over. Miles couldn’t help
taking pictures with his cell phone, expressing his wonder at the vige’s changes over the past few
years.
As the camera zoomed in, the logo of the cell phone in Miles’ hand was disyed perfectly. It was none
other than the logo of Dragon Eye.
Everyone in the family was speechless when they finished the advertisement.
The corners of Cooper’s mouth twitched. This advertisement… had no traces of amercial at all!
The plot was very embarrassing, but after the episodes were broadcasted, Dragon Eye cell phones
instantly increased in poprity throughout the vast countryside.
At the moment, Cethos was still internationally recognized as a developing and underdeveloped country.
Its rural poption was three times that of its urban poption, so the market in the vast countryside, the
suburbs, and the pastoral areas were huge.
In fact, Cethos’ GDP per capita was very high, and its citizens’ purchasing power was almost as strong
as a developed country’s. They put on a weak front internationally, knowing that one mustn’t reveal their
wealth. Furthermore, Cethos’ Inte censorship prevented foreigners from understanding what Cethos
was actually like through the Inte. Most of the citizens from other countries still thought that
Cethosians were so poor that they couldn’t even afford to eat tea eggs.
Therefore, many luxury brands weren’t very optimistic about entering the Cethosian market. Dragon Eye
had previously been afraid of entering the Cethos too; this was not only because of Cooper’s
apprehensions, but also because the brand was worried that Cethosians couldn’t afford luxury goods.
Consequently, they wouldn’t be able to maintain a steady stream of sales.
After touring the area, a surprised Alice realized that this country was theplete opposite of what
others assumed it to be. In fact, international news coverage of this country wasn’t urate at all; this
country was so well-developed that one could scan QR codes to donate money while visiting a remote
temple deep in the mountains. Smartphones were verymon; Serpent mobile phones were
commonly used even in areas that looked impoverished.
In the end, she decided to sell Dragon Eye cell phones in Cethos.
Sophia didn’t disappoint her either; after a week of presales, a total of 3,000,000 cell phones were sold in
advance. Dragon Eye cell phones’ sales volume couldn’t match Serpent mobile phones, but they put
themselves firmly in second ce.
Besides Dragon Eye cell phones’ quality and reputation, Sophia’s hard work also yed a role in this.
Alice had chosen her as the agent mainly because she was so utterly shameless, using every
opportunity to advertise the cell phones.
Cooper had been observing the presalestely. He found that Sophia’s advertisements were
everywhere, which was simply exhausting.
Inserting advertisements into TV dramas and films was fine, and it was necessary to promote the cell
phones via LED screens on various buildings andrge screens in different malls. However, Sophia also
advertised Dragon Eye cell phones through TVmercials, web portals, video-streaming applications,
pre-show ads, and posters at bus stops… She even had the advertisement for Dragon Eye cell phones
spray-painted onto the walls in the vast countryside!
After watching enough episodes of ‘I Am the Vige Chief 2’ for the day, Sophia cracked and ate melon
seeds in the Edwards Residence while speaking to Cooper. “I’ve looked at the result of this presale, Dad.
The sales volume in the countryside is about the same as the sales volume in urban areas—this shows
that my approach is right. Let’s look at the eastern coastal areas in particr; the sales volume there is
the highest, nearly exceeding that of the urban areas. Other countries always go through the process of
urbanization before going through the process of deurbanization; the rich are first centered in urban
areas before they leave the cities to gather in the suburbs. Cethos seems quite different from other
countries, though. The purchasing power of citizens in the countryside can’t be underestimated, for there
are still many hidden wealthy people. The prices of our cell phones and Serpent mobile phones are quite
reasonable; other people spend thousands on Serpent for the sake of their pride, but they spend
thousands on our cell phones for the phones’ quality. Therefore, I ced emphasis on the cell phones’
quality while advertising them. We can’t use the same selling points as Serpent mobile phones since we
can’t win against them for the time being.”
Listening to Sophia’s words, Cooper stroked the cat as he nodded repeatedly.
He didn’t expect Sophia to know quite well that the main buyers of Serpent cell phones were the petit
bourgeoisie in the city. Since they couldn’t afford Dragon Eye’s high-end cell phones, they could only buy
Serpent cell phones, which were the best low-end mobile devices. Evidently, Serpent did quite a good
job in marketing its cell phones.
Sophia was now trying to avoid the main buyers of Serpent cell phones while looking for other
breakthroughs.
Sophia then continued, “Dad, Uncle Linus—why don’t you two think of some advertising slogans for me?
The advertising slogans used in the countryside and the suburbs have to be changed from time to time. I
came up with several ideas as well. How does ‘Dragon Eye—you’d only need one for life’ sound? Does it
sound good to you?”
Cooper was at a loss for words.
“With quality as good as Dragon Eye cell phones, you’re looking at your next family heirloom!”
“Dragon Eye cell phones are second to none; just wait till you hear praises from everyone.”
Throughout the entire time, Cooper was rendered speechless.
Sophia said, “Dad? Uncle Linus? Say something! I’m thinking of organizing a sales promotion in the
countryside. Those who buy the 16GB version of Dragon Eye cell phones will get free toilet paper,
whereas those who buy the 64GB version of Dragon Eye cell phones will get a bucket of peanut oil for
free. Since it’s the busy farming season, those who buy the 128GB version of Dragon Eye cell phones
will get a packet of chemical fertilizers for free…”
Cooper was still speechless.
After saying so much without getting a reply from Cooper, Sophia became angry. “Hmph!”
Cooper also felt helpless. He didn’t know how to respond to Sophia’s words, for what she said was
obviously well beyond the scope of his knowledge!
Linus also frowned as he didn’t know what to say in response to Sophia’s words.
However, Sophia turned her head away and started speaking to Michael.
Michael had been filming his scenes in another part of the country recently. Still, he managed to find time
toe home and take a look around every once in a while. Having juste back on this day, he
immediately responded to Sophia and answered, “You’re right. The urban residents’ purchasing power is
strong, but our cell phones haven’t be well-known in the country; we can’t win against renowned
cell phone brands like Serpent if wepete with them in terms of sales volume in urban areas. We can
market our cell phones in rural areas surrounding the cities. Let’s secure sales in rural areas toy the
foundation first before gradually entering the cities. I think that it’s okay to give those who buy Dragon
Eye cell phones a block of cured meat or a link of sausages. If this is not enough, we can even distribute
a packet of can seeds to whoever enters the shop!”

Both Cooper and Linus were speechless.
