550 Quick Purchasing
It was, without a doubt, a slap to the reporter’s face.

Wu Mo was telling him, “If you think it’s too expensive, you can try buying it elsewhere, provided that you can find it in the first place!”

Everyone knew that rare items were naturally worth a lot.

The price was reasonable for such a miraculous potion.

The reporter’s question had indeed been a little ignorant.

!!
Furthermore, Wu Mo made it clear that he had not set the price on his own. It resulted from discussions between many parties. He only provided his own suggestions and references.

The reporter smiled awkwardly and sat back down in silence.

He did not feel qualified to ask any more questions.

Then, the other reporters continued to ask questions about Life First.

For example, would the first five hundred bottles have the same effect as the ones in the trials?

In response to this question, an expert patted his chest without hesitation and guaranteed that Life First would have the same effect as the trial drug that China had developed. There would be no difference.

With that, the press conference ended successfully.

Soon after, people around the world fixed their eyes on Life First’s official website.

Once the official website was updated, the purchase portal quickly appeared.

Everyone tried their best to buy it, and Wu Mo also paid attention to the progress online.

In just fifty seconds, all five hundred bottles of Life First were sold!

“Heavens… Isn’t that crazy?”

The experts and researchers did not know whether to laugh or cry.

They had expected the potions to sell out quickly once they were made available, but they never thought it would be so fast. It literally happened in the blink of an eye!

“Five hundred bottles were sold in less than a minute. Each bottle was sold for forty-eight million, so how much money does that come to?”

One of the researchers calculated the numbers, and the astronomical figure that he got in the end made him sigh.

“The first batch alone sold for more than two billion, and this batch only accounts for less than one-tenth of our inventory,” another researcher muttered.

However, when he thought of the potion’s miraculous effects, billions of dollars were not worth mentioning.

Strictly speaking, it was priceless!

Wu Mo previously had no plans to sell it to the public. Now that it was open for sale, it was considered a blessing to the world.

“Director Wu, we can’t wait to know when the second batch of Life First will be released!”

Phone calls came in from all over the world.

Some had failed to get their hands on the potion during their first attempt because their hands had not been quick enough. They were filled with regret, and now they were looking forward to the arrival of the next batch.

They swore that next time, they would be the first to get the potion!

Wu Mo replied, “We will not be selling Life First on a regular basis. I can’t even confirm the exact date, so please pay attention to the official website at all times.”

Everyone was speechless when they heard this. What a pity. “Director Wu, can you stop playing with us? We’re about to cry! If we were to compete, who would be fast enough to snatch the potion first? You don’t know when you’ll release the second batch of products? Doesn’t that mean we have to sit in front of the screen day and night without blinking?”

Immediately after, some smarter individuals began to look for connections. They tried to get inside information from Wu Mo’s close friends to learn the specific date of the next release.

However, it was obvious that everyone would keep it a top secret. Even Wu Mo himself never revealed the information, so the rest naturally had no way of knowing.

As a result, the top tycoons around the world were in an uproar, and a strange phenomenon began to spread: They hired people to keep an eye on Life First’s official website 24/7 and pay attention to the developments on the website at all times.

Therefore, this gave birth to a new industry of quick purchasing!

Purchasing agents were nothing new, but once the element of speed was involved, the buying process became much more challenging.

Quick purchasing not only depended on the speed of the Internet, but also the agility of the buyer’s fingers.

Only the combination of the two could ensure optimal speed.

An updated link to Life First’s official website suddenly appeared one morning.

In an instant, countless quick purchasing masters went into action and clicked to buy Life First at top speed.

Some were happy, others were sad, and many could not figure out why they had chosen to go online at this time.

Many quick purchasing agents had even dozed off because of fatigue, only to instantly wake up when the link was posted. They immediately placed their orders.

This time, it took a little longer for Life First to sell out—one minute and eighteen seconds. Be that as it may, it was still shocking enough.

There were a total of six hundred bottles this time, a hundred more than previously.

However, the six hundred bottles of potions were still swept clean. Many people still failed to buy them, and they fell into despair.

“Heavens, I didn’t manage to buy it again! What should I do?”

These individuals felt endlessly wronged.

They thought that they could buy Life First by hiring a fast purchasing agent, but they discovered that their competitors had also hired purchasing agents who were even faster.

Was that not extremely tragic?

Those who successfully bought Life First were also dumbfounded.

Sixty million per bottle?

Yes, they ended up spending twelve million more than they had expected.

Although it was not considered a huge amount of money to them, it was still money that they had earned through hard work!

Besides, the new price gave people an ominous feeling. Perhaps the price of Life First would continue to rise.

“Director Wu, we followed your instructions and put out six hundred bottles in one go. They were sold out in one minute and eighteen seconds. Each bottle was sold for sixty million yuan,” the staff in charge of sales excitedly reported to Wu Mo.

Wu Mo nodded calmly. “This is exactly what I want. The new price is within my estimation as well. Life First will be released in batches, and we will increase the price of each batch based on the previous batch.”

This news caused panic among the world’s rich.

They could vaguely sense that as Life First became more scarce, it would become more expensive in the future.

In the end, they might have to spend hundreds of millions just to buy one bottle!

This was all hard-earned money, and they could not bear to spend it so casually.

Therefore, hiring a quick purchasing agent was a wise move.

All the major companies started advertising top-notch quick purchasing agents. Although they were expensive, they possessed extreme hand speed and Internet speed.

However, a certain media outlet secretly spread the news that the research team led by Wu Mo would launch Life Second next month.

As soon as they made this claim, people from the entire world voiced their opinions!
“That can’t be, right? Life Second is said to be an upgraded version of Life First. It can extend one’s lifespan by sixty years and allow one to grow thirty years in reverse!”

“Yeah, I don’t believe it either. No country would easily reveal a godly medicine like Life Second, right?”

“Sigh, how great would it be if it were true? Life Second could increase one’s lifespan by sixty years.”

Such comments were common, and no one was willing to believe that Life Second would be sold.

In fact, Wu Mo had never revealed this news. The malicious media was just trying to attract attention and traffic by making groundless accusations.

Ever since this information was made known, many people began to ask Wu Mo if he actually intended to sell Life Second.

Even the old chief called to express his concern.

After the call connected, the chief remained silent for a moment before he seriously said, “Wu Mo, although our country has already popularized Life Second, you have to understand that it’s still an extremely rare potion. If we promote it on a global scale, we’ll lose all our advantages.”
