After nearly two hours of cajoling, I believe I just persuaded a digital products merchant to accept BCH!

Mr. Fu has been selling digital products in Xihu District, Hangzhou, China for ten years. He has the best reputation in the industry for honesty and good service.

How did I know him? Well, last August I wanted to buy a Macbook and my colleague recommended me to buy at Mr. Fu's. The price for the MacBook (Retina, 12-inch, Early 2016) was over 11,000CNY on Taobao and JD.com. But Mr. Fu only sold me for 8,800 CNY. My first reaction was like anyone—"holy shit! I must have bought some knock-off second-hand computer. "

But you look at Fu's face, you know that he is that kind of guys who sucks at lying or doing anything bad. He is trustworthy. And the Mac is perfect. It's been 10 months now and nothing ever goes wrong with it. Apple rocks!

Later, I left the Hangzhou-based 8BTC and moved to Shenzhen. This June, I came back to Hangzhou and served as the emcee for the 1st BCH Geek contest. I booked a hotel close to the highway and it was just too noisy. That's when it hit me that I never owned any noice-cancelling headphones. Therefore, I clicked Taobao and planned to buy one. When I was about to pay for the order, I realized that maybe I should check with Mr. Fu first. He is in Hangzhou, he sells digital product. I might save myself some money.

I went to Mr. Fu's the next day and BINGO! He has the headphones I wanted. And the price is 1,000 CNY lower than that of Taobao. When I was about to pay Mr.Fu money, I thought maybe I could pay with BCH this time. At first it was just some random thought. But I asked myself, why not? If BCH is supposed to be cash, then use it! And that's how the two-hour long lecture on BCH began.

I started telling him how everybody could be the central bank of himself, how we are inviolable in virtue of our natural ownership rights in our personal assets, how we could pass over our coins to our grandchildren, how one BCH could be worth one Lambo(kinda exaggerating, but it's a good brainwashing technique...haha)

I don't know it's because Mr.Fu finally sees the future in BCH, or he could not stand me nagging....but hey, he said yes! And I helped him download a bitcoin.com wallet. BTW, the wallet is blocked in mainland China. So I used a HK ID to log in the iPhone and successfully downloaded the wallet.

First, we choose the Chinese language, then it comes to the most important part---- back up the wallet!!! Mr. Fu plans to screenshot his seed phrases, but I insist that he must write them down on paper, twice! He may doesn't understand this right now, but it will do him no harms.

The headphones were 2,900 CNY, about 0.396BCH on June 7. The latest version of the wallet supports the newest bch address, you could click legacy to choose the address type.

I don't know how Mr. Fu feels when received his first BCH. I am very excited to actually use EOS in real life. And I finally have my own headphones!
