Chapter 311: Detonation (Part II)
Chu Yun was not the only Cybertron Cloud Drive user to receive a portable hard drive gifted by Cybertron Technology. In fact, at this very moment within the Yangtze River Delta, at least dozens of other users who, like him, had activated a permanent Cybertron Cloud Drive membership with a skeptical attitude, were experiencing the same shock.
Inside an office in an office building in Nandu's Wuxuan District that hung a giant "Computer Home" sign, editor Liu Yun, who had also received a hard drive gifted by Cybertron Technology Company, was currently looking down at several portable hard drives of varying sizes spread out before him, the astonishment on his face already overflowing.
Website platforms like "Computer Home" all have certain allocated funds for editors to purchase paid software service experiences, or even electronic equipment and the like.
The permanent Cybertron Cloud Drive membership that Liu Yun activated was paid for with funds applied for from the website; having worked at "Computer Home" for so many years, he still had that much authority.
Regarding "Cybertron Cloud Drive," this new cloud drive that had only just been released not long ago, Liu Yun had a deep impression of it.
About twenty days ago, when it first landed on the "Computer Home" platform, he was the one who personally conducted the review. Afterward, out of professional integrity, Liu Yun also tracked its usage for a period of time and gave it a high rating.
The clean operating interface, the three different modes that subdivided different user groups, and that incredible transmission and download speed all left a deep impression on Liu Yun.
It was also because of this that when he learned yesterday that Cybertron Cloud Drive had launched its membership function, although he was not optimistic about the prospects of this cloud drive that did not yet have many users or much fame, he was even very suspicious of the authenticity of Cybertron Technology Company's public promotion of gifting portable hard drives for activating memberships.
However, considering that it belonged to the same company as the development team for the "Pure Version XP" operating system, he still applied for funding from the office and not only activated the permanent Cybertron Cloud Drive membership but even activated all the cloud drive storage expansions one by one.
What Liu Yun did not expect was that although he had activated the service a day late after the membership function went online, Cybertron Technology Company had actually taken less than twenty-four hours to deliver all the portable hard drives promised for purchasing the membership service into his hands.
"Delivered in a day, this courier is quite efficient. Right, I remember Cybertron Technology Company seems to be in Nandu, it really can be delivered within a day..."
Liu Yun still had some status in the office, and he did not know much about portable hard drives, so after bringing the hard drives gifted by Cybertron Technology into the office, he distributed them to several young people, asking them to help check if there was anything fishy.
What is meant by fishy?
To put it bluntly, it meant fraud!
"Liu, are the test results out yet?"
"Liu Ge, the ones checked are all here for you. I downloaded professional hard drive testing software; the storage is fine, it's not a fake modified by software..."
"Damn, what is the background of this Cybertron Technology Company? Activating a permanent membership only costs 199, and they gift a 1T portable hard drive. Spending 299 to expand capacity by 2T also gifts a 2T cloud drive; 599 to add 5T actually comes with a 5T hard drive; 1099 yuan to expand 10T, and it still comes with a 10T hard drive... won't they lose their shirts over this..."
"Indeed, although it's an unknown brand, there are no quality issues with the hard drives gifted by Cybertron Technology Company... or rather, this read/write speed really gave us a fright. We just tested it, and its average read/write speed reached 2G per second..."
"... Right, files and videos smaller than 2G in size can all finish transmitting in seconds!"
Inside the office, with everyone putting in a word, Liu Yun, amidst the exclamations and discussions of his colleagues who felt as incredulous as he did, finally confirmed that these gifted portable hard drives he received from Cybertron Technology Company not only had no quality or fraud issues, but their size was far smaller than portable hard drives of equivalent storage on the market, and the read/write speed was terrifying enough to leave one tongue-tied.
Beyond the shock, Liu Yun, who had been listless for months without encountering a decent piece of software, suddenly couldn't help but become excited.
"There's a problem... this startup company called Cybertron Technology definitely has a problem..."
After thinking for a moment, Liu Yun opened the computer in front of him to create a new Word document, and after summarizing the test results from his colleagues, he used a printer to print it out.
After finishing these, he thanked the few colleagues who had helped him for half the day, then took the several portable hard drives and walked toward the supervisor's office.
Two or three days after the membership function went online, as dozens of users in the Yangtze River Delta region who had activated permanent Cybertron Cloud Drive memberships successively received the portable hard drives sent by Cybertron Technology Company.
On the internet, a storm quickly blew up.
The search giant—Baidu's Tieba—Cybertron Cloud Drive Bar was the first to be detonated.
"Damn, damn, damn, damn, damn, no hate, no hype, Cybertron Technology is truly explosive. I activated a permanent membership, and damn, they really sent me a 1T hard drive!"
"Wanting to buy a portable hard drive for 199 yuan, is the OP an official shill? Can you dare to be any faker?"
"Exactly, the cheapest 1T hard drive online is over three hundred. Do you really think everyone is an idiot?"
"Haha, although I feel Cybertron Cloud Drive is more comfortable to use than One Hundred Cloud Drive, this official promotion is a bit too fake, right? Charging for membership and expanding capacity to gift portable hard drives, this is the rhythm of scamming money and running away. Everyone had better hurry up and transfer the things stored in the cloud drive..."
"Screw you, you agitator..."
"A bunch of idiots, don't you believe the OP? Come on, I'll post pictures right now, open your big dog eyes and see clearly..."
"Damn? So small? Is it really a 1T hard drive?"
"... Everyone disperse, stop questioning. This time I have to give Cybertron Technology a like. Like the OP, I also activated a permanent membership. The officially gifted portable hard drive has arrived, the test is complete and there are no issues, that read/write speed is simply invincible..."
"OP, don't lower yourself to the level of fools... Let me show you something more exciting. I'm a cloud drive addict and I don't lack that bit of money. Recently, Cybertron Cloud Drive has been more comfortable to use than the super membership of One Hundred Cloud Drive. This time after the official launched the expansion function, I expanded to 18T in one go, tsk tsk... spent less than two thousand yuan, and the official gifted four portable hard drives, including a 10T hard drive..."
In the internet era, what users value most is sharing and spreading.
Following the arrival of one surprise after another, the Cybertron Cloud Drive users, full of incredulity, began to promote Cybertron Cloud Drive and Cybertron Technology Company on Tieba, Weibo, Moments, and all the social media they were accustomed to using, with their own resources, carrying a sense of secret joy and complacency.
After Sun Cheng returned to the real world, the first storm was finally set off. 8)
