Chapter 232: Chapter 232: The Expected Pressure
In recent days, in any city with a Candy Technology smart glasses store, not a single eyewear shop owner has had a pleasant expression.
Frowning, looking troubled, has been the most genuine expression of eyewear shop owners these past few days.
Those suppliers of lenses and fras may not have felt anything amiss yet, possibly due to a lag in the impact.
But for eyewear shops that directly face custors, they’ve already personally felt the fearso impact of Candy Technology smart glasses.
——————
"Chairman, here is the latest data on the sales of Candy Technology smart glasses that I was asked to monitor closely."
In a not-so-large office, the walls were adorned with various calligraphy and paintings.
Judging by the handwriting, they weren’t from any famous master, but each stroke gave off a comfortable feeling.
In front of a solid redwood desk, the person who had just briefed the report saw the chairman still calmly practicing calligraphy, and remained silent.
She stood quietly to the side, waiting peacefully.
From the path walked by predecessors who were expelled, she understood that keeping quiet was best at such tis.
Too many words lead to mistakes!
After Chen Zhimin finished writing the last character, he put down the brush, looked at his writing, shook his head, and sighed.
Before Wang ca in, the handwriting was as good as ever.
But when Wang entered, the handwriting seed as if it was scribbled by soone else.
"Alas, the heart is not tranquil."
The employee holding the docunt dared not make a sound after hearing the chairman’s sigh.
Quickly lowered her head, avoiding looking at the calligraphy on the desk.
"Hand it over."
Wang quickly stepped forward and handed the docunt to the chairman.
A minute later, Chen Zhimin tossed the docunt onto the desk.
"Ha!" A fleeting joy appeared on his face, followed by a cold anger.
Quickly returning to calm, no emotions were evident.
"I see, you can go now, notify the board mbers for a eting."
"Yes."
As Wang exited the office, Chen Zhimin then took out a cigarette and lit it.
"Although anticipated, I didn’t expect it to hit so hard."
With a bitter laugh, facing such dinsional reduction attacks really is a headache.
In every field, there are associations, and the eyewear industry is no exception.
A day later, a large conference room in a skyscraper in Shanghai was packed.
At this mont, those sitting in this conference room and holding a eting were all suppliers in the eyewear field.
We could say that anyone with strength in the eyewear field sat here.
Gathering this quickly could only an those present fully realized the severity of the issue.
"Everyone, let’s discuss, what should be done about this matter?"
"Hmph! Afraid of what, we have so many people. We could pressure Candy Technology to share its smart glasses patent."
"Don’t forget, if our business becos hard to conduct, and profits plunge drastically, what it ans for our individual cities, leaders understand better."
Everyone spoke their minds and grievances, making Chen Zhimin’s headache worse.
Unable to listen any longer, Chen Zhimin knocked on the eting table and spoke helplessly:
"Have you all looked at the materials placed beside you?"
"If not, please open to page 15. After viewing it, you won’t boast so confidently here."
Suddenly, the eting room fell silent, and many people flipped to page 15 of their materials.
Soon, everyone looked ashen; Candy Technology’s smart glasses production factory was actually a supplier to the military.
Thinking back to what Xu Pengfei said at the smart glasses launch of Candy Technology, things beca clearer.
The smart glasses had beco special equipnt for the military.
"What should we do then? We can’t just watch Candy Technology gobble up our market share," soone finally voiced out in the long quiet eting room.
"Everyone, Samsung sells phones but is also a supplier for other phone brands. Do you see what I an?" Chen Zhimin appeared unperturbed, with no hint of panic.
"Old Chen, what do you an?"
"Exactly, Candy Technology sells smart glasses at such high prices, which ans they only aim for the high-end market."
"So we should directly seek cooperation?"
"No!" Chen Zhimin shook his head and said:
"We must apply so pressure to Candy Technology, or what leverage do we have?"
"Candy Technology can sell to anyone; why should they specifically sell to us?"
"We need leverage."
Two days later, it was Friday.
After collaboration and coordination between Xia Xiaomin and Su Wenyan, the production capacity of the smart glasses factory was finally raised.
In the short term, there shouldn’t be concerns about supply not eting demand.
Once a month passes, sales numbers will dip and stabilize eventually.
In the office, Mo Jingchun was examining various types of industrial software, contemplating where to start.
Since the task was to be done, it should be done well.
Research one by one; once one category is done and honed, move on to the next category.
Mo Jingchun had already directed Xia Xiaomin to intentionally let slip their next goal: developing industrial software, the kind that developers dread the most.
The effect was notable; at least whenever Mo Jingchun inspected occasionally, he often saw a few high-level calculus books on employees’ desks.
Developing industrial software requires more than just coding skills.
So people struggle to understand formulas, let alone translate them into code.
Sotis, even the relevant physics knowledge is necessary.
This is why for the first ti, Mo Jingchun instructed the HR departnt to recruit Ph.D. graduates in mathematics, and even to employ university professors.
Specific tasks need professional talents.
Just as Mo Jingchun was engrossed in reviewing the various categorized industrial software materials by Zero, soone interrupted.
And this person was actually secretary Xia Xiaomin.
"What’s up?"
When Mo Jingchun looked up, he not only saw Xia Xiaomin but also Xu Pengfei standing beside her.
Seeing Xu Pengfei’s serious expression, Mo Jingchun raised an eyebrow.
"Old Xu, what’s wrong?"
Every ti Xu Pengfei wore such an expression, generally, sothing was up.
"Boss, the county leaders contacted
just now."
"They said..."
After hearing Xu Pengfei’s report, the corners of Mo Jingchun’s mouth slightly curled up; there wasn’t a trace of concern.
Everything was expected, wasn’t it?
When the Candy Think Tank eting was held, today’s scenario had already been foreseen.
Mo Jingchun chuckled and said, "Old Xu, don’t be so serious, I thought it was sothing big."
"Contact the county leaders; tell them to hold a cooperation negotiation eting for the Z_001 lens next Monday."
"Our Candy Technology welcos any interested company."
