Shadow and Light: The Bride Who Clicks Her Way to Love-Chapter 302 - 315: These Sales Figures Are Terrifying

The host pressed the remote, and the exquisite chart on the big screen faded, replaced by an even more exquisite chart.

The background was a blend of three photographic pictures, as mysteriously brilliant as night stars, centered on a Blade camera, accompanied by a dazzling string of figures.

"Oh my..." Many people in the audience opened their mouths wide, staring at the big screen speechlessly.

"These, these figures... surely they must be wrong?" Someone asked in disbelief.

In the photography center, Yun Xi, who had just been smugly enjoying a drink, dropped her wine glass to the ground with a clink, spilling red liquid everywhere without noticing: "This, how is this possible? How can the sales for the special edition be so high?! It’s significantly higher than the regular edition! These figures must be wrong!"

Her sharp voice drew many people to turn around; Anna, in shock, said, "The sales of this special edition are incredibly high."

Yes, the string of figures on the big screen could only be described as incredible, nearly twice the regular edition. The regular edition was already the best-selling camera model among Blade’s many cameras in the past year or two. What’s the concept of Blade’s sales champion? It means that there hasn’t been a better-selling camera in the entire domestic market in the past year or two!

And the record the regular edition had just set was broken by the special edition in less than five minutes!

And broken in a particularly exaggerated way!

No wonder many people couldn’t help but suspect there was a problem with the figures; the sales of the special edition indeed seem unrealistically high.

"These figures must be wrong." Zhuang Heng slowly said.

She was quite calm inside; if Su Xingyu’s special edition figures just exceeded hers slightly, she might have panicked, but exceeding by such a large margin is simply unscientific. There must be a problem with the statistics!

Yun Xi strongly agreed with her statement, shouting: "Exactly! Su Xingyu is shameless! Relying on being Mr. Lu’s girlfriend to manipulate the figures! Our Blade Group has always adhered to the principle of fairness and justice for years, even Mr. Lu himself doesn’t have any privileges, isn’t she breaking the rules?" She felt it was her moment to shine, stood up, and shouted to the host on stage, "I protest! These figures are too fake, obviously not real. I suspect there’s some manipulation!"

The venue was filled with buzzing discussions. Many had already suspected something was wrong with the figures, but hadn’t considered manipulation until Yun Xi brought it up, and realized there could indeed be such a possibility.

At the main table, Lu Shifeng turned his head, his sharp eyes coldly glanced at Yun Xi.

Yun Xi did not expect him to look over; she couldn’t help but shiver, her earlier boldness suddenly cooled, and she panicked.

After glancing, Lu Shifeng turned back.

The atmosphere at the main table was somewhat peculiar; due to Lu Shifeng’s influence, none of the high-level executives dared to show any unusual expressions, but inwardly, they couldn’t help but wonder if such high figures really had no issues.

At the head of the main table, Mr. Lu looked over to Su Xingyu with his eyes full of restrained brilliance: "Xingyu, what do you think?"

Su Xingyu didn’t expect Mr. Lu to ask her, but she simply smiled calmly and replied, "I am confident that the special edition’s figures can surpass the regular edition."

She wasn’t sure if such exaggerated figures were wrong. Truthfully, she was also startled.

But even if the figures were wrong, she believed once the true data was restored, it would certainly surpass Zhuang Heng. The quality of the special edition speaks for itself.

She turned her head, looking at the host on stage along with many other Blade employees below, awaiting the host’s explanation.

The host chuckled, picked up the microphone, and spoke toward the photography center’s table: "How could the figures be wrong? I guarantee these are the most accurate figures up to six o’clock tonight."

"I don’t believe it," this time, it was Zhuang Heng speaking, her voice low enough for only those at the photography center’s table to hear, "The camera market share is huge and fixed; it’s not like bubblegum that can be bought with pocket money. The sales space is limited. Su Xingyu’s figures must have issues."

"I believe in Xingyu’s character," this time it was Fang Luohua speaking, stubbornly defending her little apprentice despite having no evidence, "She would not cheat."

"Hmph, whether or not she cheats is unknown, but she’s been displeased with Miss Zhuang for a long time, willing to do anything to climb into Mr. Lu’s bed; what wouldn’t she do to rise?" Yun Xi sneered.

"Yun Xi, don’t be so harsh." Anna, stood beside, couldn’t bear to listen. They were all in the same department; even if they didn’t get along, some words were too hurtful!

"Why not, she can do it, but won’t let others talk about it?" Yun Xi, gaining momentum, was eager to prove she was right, "That vixen has long hoodwinked Mr. Lu! Otherwise, why would Mr. Lu ignore the noble Miss Zhuang and bring that vixen to sit at the main table?"

"Enough, Yun Xi," this time, Zhuang Heng was displeased, her tone somewhat unfriendly, "I am the chief; naturally, I should sit at the chief’s seat. Shifeng brought her over to ease the situation so she wouldn’t be embarrassed, and not fight for a position she shouldn’t have!" Zhuang Heng also cared about appearances; even though it was obvious Lu Shifeng favored Su Xingyu more, she couldn’t let people openly say Lu Shifeng wouldn’t choose her.

Yun Xi reluctantly fell silent, having made a significant blunder in trying to support Zhuang Heng but ended up overstepping boundaries and finding no benefits.

On the stage, the host began: "Everyone must be surprised by how high the figures of the special edition are. I was also astonished when I first got them, verifying them several times. But truly, the figures are not wrong. Below is a comparison graph of the sales curves of the regular and special edition cameras—"

As the host spoke, he brought out a third chart, displayed on the big screen: "From this chart, we can clearly see the regular edition’s sales soared drastically since it was launched, but plummeted when the special edition was released. Since the special edition’s launch, many people originally planning to buy the regular edition opted for the special edition, directly taking away a lot of market share from the regular edition."

Indeed, from the chart, after the special edition’s release, the regular edition’s sales took a nosedive, sharply declining, leaving little doubt about where the lost sales went.

"Wow, the special edition is truly impressive..." someone in the audience praised.

"It’s directly snatching the regular edition’s market."

"Clashing blades; a head-to-head battle."

Amidst the discussions, there were still dissenting voices, those desperate colleagues about to lose their bets: "These figures are still very irregular. Even with many consumers being Xia Ling and Ouyang Yi’s fans, oh, perhaps even Su Xingyu’s fans, but the sheer number of fans can’t possibly occupy 90% of the regular edition’s market share, right?"

Indeed, on that chart, the special edition occupied nearly 90% of the share, frighteningly!
