Two years later, the mobile phones Li Xiulan invested in were officially produced and brought to market. At that time, most phones on the market were still imports, and only a minority of people owned one.
As soon as the phones were launched, Datou’s supermarket chain added a dedicated mobile phone counter to sell them.
