After downloading the 25 billionth app earlier this month, Chunli Fu of Qingdao, China was brought to Beijing to receive her prize, MICGadget reports. As well as collecting her gift card at the Sanlitun store, she also visited Apple’s corporate offices and talked to the media at a special announcement.
As MICGadget explains:
Fu Chunli was not a big fan of Apple, and had only purchased her iPhone for about one month, still learning how to use the App Store. She didn’t know anything about the competition until she was contacted by Apple. When she received a call from staff at Apple (China), she thought it was a hoax. She was still confused when a friend told her that she received a prize from Apple, but did not believe her luck until she saw an email from Apple Inc. Many friends called her to congratulate her on her good fortune. The local media now call Fu Chunli the ‘Apple girl’ from China.
You could call it beginner’s luck, I suppose.
