I can become stronger by paying salaries. I have one billion employees!

Chapter 621 2399 Yuan? The Fourth Smart Device! Since you want to improve, I'll send you to Africa tomorrow!
"What's going on? The offices of Procter & Gamble, Unilever, and Auchan were also vandalized? And there were even guns?"

On the afternoon of May 7, a piece of new news shocked Annam.

Western journalists who were initially just watching the spectacle began to condemn it.

They never expected these monkeys to be so audacious, completely disregarding the consequences.

In a short time, several countries joined forces to issue inquiries and protests to Annan, and quickly organized a large-scale evacuation operation.

As a result, the supply chains of brands such as Walmart, Target, Adidas, and Nike have been temporarily disrupted, forcing them to suspend production.

At 10:53, Annamese military and police intensified their arrest efforts.

at the same time.

Inside a private room in Luzhou Prefecture, Tang Zhenzhe was drunk and his words were increasingly incoherent, often repeating the same sentence two or three times.

"There are so many beautiful girls in Annam, and a lot of them are of mixed race. They are fair-skinned and soft, like red bean paste."

Tang Zhenzhe, holding a wine glass, spoke eloquently.

"Brother Zhe, if I weren't afraid of dying, I'd be tempted to go too."

Zhu Xiaopeng chuckled, revealing a look of longing.

Upon hearing this, Tang Zhenzhe's expression froze, and he angrily cursed, "If you ask me, we didn't beat them enough back then. These monkeys never learn."

"Brother Sen, how badly did we suffer losses in Annam?"

Meng Xibo asked curiously.

"Several local employees were seriously injured, two courier outlets were vandalized, three food delivery stations were looted, and an Orange Mobile direct-sale store suffered heavy losses, with economic losses estimated at 6 million yuan."

Chen Yansen put down his wine glass and spoke truthfully.

"Local staff?"

Meng Xibo was slightly taken aback and subconsciously asked in return.

“Orange Phone has three directly operated stores in Anam. Most of its revenue comes from sales through distributors such as Mobile World, Viettel and Vinaphone. Since the incident yesterday afternoon, local employees have voluntarily stayed at the company to prevent it from being looted, vandalized, or set on fire.”

Tang Zhenzhe took a sip of his drink and explained with a complicated expression.

"Anan's colleagues are working so hard?" Zhu Xiaopeng originally wanted to say "monkeys," but when he thought about how these people had even been seriously injured while protecting the company's property, he changed his tone and used a different term.

"The world is not black and white. Good people and bad people exist everywhere, it's just that their proportions are different."

Chen Yansen smiled slightly and asked casually.

Actually, there was something else he didn't say. After all, Senlian Capital offered a generous salary and benefits package. Couldn't they support a few foreign employees?

After learning that his boss would give him a bonus of 10, Li Junhui worked even harder. He defended the directly operated store on the Thirty-Six Streets like a fortress, and he was really willing to use a knife if anyone dared to cause trouble.

“The overseas market has great potential, but the risks are also considerable. Fortunately, Brother Sen reacted quickly and chartered a plane to pick him up immediately, otherwise Brother Zhe would have suffered a lot.”

Zhu Xiaopeng and Tang Zhenzhe clinked glasses and joked with each other.

"Brother Sen, let me toast you! To be honest, I was scared, but I gained a lot during my six months in Annam. As the saying goes, the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold, and the sharpness of a sword comes from tempering. Life has great ups and downs before it can rise again!"

Tang Zhenzhe stood up, holding his wine glass, and said respectfully.

In his view, although Chen Yansen had sent him to Annam, he was not stupid and knew that the other party was training him.

"You've got a whole repertoire of clever phrases. Since Zhe wants to improve, I can't stop you. Tomorrow I'll send you to Abyssinia to expand the mobile phone business. Do a good job, I'm waiting to see you shine."

Chen Yansen jokingly remarked.

He pressed down with his left hand, gesturing for Tang Zhenzhe to sit down and chat, saying there was no need to be polite.

Abyssinia?
Isn't that Africa?

"Brother Sen, I was just saying that, you didn't take it seriously, did you?" Tang Zhenzhe asked with an embarrassed smile.

"You mean you're messing with the boss?"

Chen Yansen questioned him with a stern face.

"Yeah, Brother Sen, he's playing you!" Zhu Xiaopeng chimed in with a grin.

Tang Zhenzhe scratched his head and rolled his eyes at Zhu Xiaopeng.

"Okay, just kidding, you don't actually believe that, do you?"

Chen Yansen waved his hand and raised his wine glass.

Upon seeing this, the other three immediately raised their cups.

Just then, an urgent news report suddenly appeared on television.

The footage shows that martial law has been tightened on the streets of Annan, with armed police and soldiers patrolling and helicopters circling at low altitudes.

The anchor announced in a hurried tone: "Repatriation ships from multiple countries have arrived at Haiphong Port. The Annan Central Command has announced a curfew effective immediately, and all foreign-invested enterprises must accept military protection."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yansen couldn't help but snort coldly.

To put it bluntly, there is no fundamental difference between human society and the animal world. The underlying logic is still the survival of the fittest, and whoever has the bigger fist has the loudest voice!

The four of them drank and chatted until 11:30 p.m. before finally getting into their cars and leaving.

As soon as Chen Yansen got into the car, Master Ye, who smelled of milk, immediately snuggled into his arms.

"Next time you go overseas, remember to bring more bodyguards. I saw that four people have died and dozens more have been seriously injured in Vietnam."

Ye Qiuping gave him instructions with a concerned expression.

"Oh, by the way, has the Grey Wolf cosplay outfit I asked you to buy last time arrived?"

Chen Yansen nodded dismissively.

With his physical strength and mental power, anyone who tries to cause him trouble is practically courting death.

However, he is not strong enough yet. Once his physique and mental strength are improved to a certain level and he activates a few new talents, he might not even need to eat beef anymore.

"No," Ye Qiuping replied in a low voice.

There was a "pop" sound!
Chen Yansen slapped Master Ye on the buttocks and warned him with displeasure, "Speak properly. You're not young anymore."

How old?

Ye Qiuping felt a tightness in her chest; Chen Yansen's words were particularly hurtful.

So what if I'm thirty?
I didn't eat your chicken or use your rice, so why are you worrying about this?

"I'm a doctor tonight, you dare to hit a doctor? When I give you the injection later, I won't hold back."

Master Ye leaned close to Chen Yansen's ear and spoke in a very low voice.

"An injection?" Chen Yansen's lips curled up slightly, showing interest. Huang Boxiang, sitting in the driver's seat, gripped the steering wheel, seemingly invisible the entire time. After dropping the two off at Bihu Yunxi, he immediately drove away.

Chen Yansen and Ye Qiuping walked into the living room together.

A short while later, Master Ye came out wearing a light pink doctor's uniform, with a stethoscope hanging on his chest and white fishnet stockings wrapped around his calves, with two bows tied at the tight part.

It's neither fish nor fowl, and it looks utterly improper!
"Dr. Ye, please give me an injection quickly."

As Chen Yansen spoke, he unbuckled his belt.

……

……

The Global Internet & Mobile Conference was held in Yanjing on the morning of the second day.

Taking this opportunity, Orange Technology released two apps: Orange Mobile Security Manager and Orange Game Center, and also launched the Orange Watch smartwatch with NFC functionality.

This is Orange Technology's fourth smart wearable device, following the Orange B1, B2, and B3 smart bands.

The front features a 1.8-inch AMOLED touchscreen, running the Aurora Watch OS 1.0 system. It supports Bluetooth and WiFi connectivity, and can seamlessly sync with the Orange phone, allowing users to answer calls, send messages, and view notifications.

It can monitor heart rate and blood oxygen levels in real time and issue warnings when heart rate is abnormal or arrhythmia occurs.

It has practical little functions such as flashlight, theater mode, timer, and remote photo taking.

The first batch of compatible apps includes Toutiao, Orange Pay, Douyin, Gaode Map, WeChat, QQ Music, and Sohu News.

As for whether anyone would use such a small screen to browse Douyin, Chen Yansen had no doubt at all.

Take Haier's Casarte Yunzhen Smart Refrigerator as an example. Because it has a 13-inch touch screen embedded in the front, it is very popular among users. Many people use it to watch short videos or movies to pass the time while cooking.

It features 1GB of RAM and 8GB of storage, and includes a simplified version of the Moss voice assistant.

Issue price: 2399 yuan!
It will officially go on sale on May 18th!
It's worth noting that the Orange Watch smartwatch uses the Aurora Watch OS 1.0 system.

Meanwhile, its NFC function not only allows for small-amount purchases at Orange Supermarket, but also enables users to pay for public transportation such as buses and subways in Beijing, Sichuan, Shanghai, Luzhou, and Tianjin by swiping their watches.

The futuristic use cases prompted many young people who wanted to show off to immediately add the pre-sale link to their favorites and set alarms to buy it.

Cook, on the other side of the ocean, was stunned when he heard the news.

He hadn't expected that Chen Yansen would be even faster than him in terms of learning from and innovating.

The world's first smartwatch was the HP-01, launched by Hewlett-Packard in 1977. However, the truly modern smartwatch was the e-ink screen model released by Pebble last year, which could not only install third-party applications but also even run Flappy Bird.

Following this, Sansei immediately paid tribute and developed the Galaxy Gear.

Apple was already a step behind Shanxing, but now it can't even catch up with Orange Technology?
Cook stared at the Apple Watch design drafts on his computer and fell into deep thought.

After an unknown amount of time, he pressed the internal phone and convened a meeting of the R&D center's management.

"We need to shorten the development cycle of the Apple Watch and ensure that its functions are fully comparable to the Orange Watch, especially the NFC and health monitoring modules."

Cook began to speak.

Should we imitate Orange Watch?

Jeff Williams, the head of Apple Watch's product line, frowned slightly before responding, "Aurora Future's Watch OS 1.0 system has already achieved seamless synchronization with the phone, while our Watch OS is still debugging compatibility and requires a sufficient development cycle to ensure the product's performance and quality."

The implication is that rushing to launch would only lead to more harm than good.

Cook smiled faintly, glanced sideways at Jeff Williams, and tapped the table, saying, "By the time we've fixed the compatibility issues, Orange Technology's second smartwatch should already be on the market! Do you think users will wait for us?"

He strode up behind Jeff Williams, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "We don't have time to waste anymore, you understand?"

Jeff Williams turned around stiffly, looked at the determination in Cook's eyes, and finally relented: "I will do my best, but if the compatibility issues still remain after a week, we need to communicate with the marketing department in advance and prepare contingency plans."

"The technical consultant will be stationed in the R&D department tomorrow morning. Report any technical bottlenecks immediately. Meeting adjourned. Everyone, go back to your posts."

Cook withdrew his hand and made a firm decision.

Capturing users' minds is crucial!
The Galaxy Gear from the Mountain Star wasn't exactly a successful product, but the Orange Watch might be a different story.

Once the Orange Watch establishes itself as an industry benchmark in the minds of users, the Apple Watch will completely lose its market competitiveness.

The executives got up and left, leaving Cook alone in the conference room soon.

What bothers him most is that the Apple Watch's battery has to be custom-made by DeepBlue Technology, otherwise its battery life will be much worse than that of the Orange Watch.

Nobody likes a smartwatch that needs to be charged every day, especially when there are better alternatives.

Furthermore, after testing and analysis, DeepBlue Technology definitely possesses the second-generation DeepBlue battery, with an energy density 1.3 to 1.4 times that of the first generation.

But DeepBlue Technology and Chen Yansen simply do not acknowledge it.

In other words, if DeepBlue Technology doesn't hold a new product launch event, the global consumer electronics industry will have to continue using first-generation products.

The second-generation product is clearly an exclusive advantage of Senlian Capital.

This feeling of being choked is extremely unpleasant!
However, even after spending more than half a year reverse engineering, the battery research labs and related companies in the United States still couldn't figure out the ratio of electrolyte to MOF membrane material in the Deep Blue battery.

waste!

Cook cursed inwardly.

at the same time.

After acquiring the "Tuolifang" daycare center in Shanghai, Senlian Capital renamed it "Orange Daycare Center" and established Orange Education Group.

Next, they plan to venture into the private kindergarten sector.

Primarily targeted at the children of internal employees, the cost is only 60% of the market price.

For employees whose spouses both work at Senlian Capital, this is undoubtedly a generous benefit.

Liang Yue, along with her daughter Yang Yuting, became one of the first users of Tuolifang.

Employee discount prices: Full-day care is 1200 yuan per month, including three meals a day; Half-day care is 720 yuan per month, including two meals a day; Hourly care is 12 yuan per hour, excluding meals.

Of course, this price only applies to the Shanghai area; the fees in Nanjing, Luzhou and other places will be 5% to 10% lower.

After paying the fees and completing the registration, Liang Yue led her daughter Yang Yuting into the Orange Nursery in Zhangjiang Town.

The caregiver greeted her with a smile and handed her a customized children's bracelet: "This is Yuting's location bracelet. You can download the 'Orange Parenting' APP on your phone to see your child's activity trajectory in real time, and also receive photos of meals and activity videos."

Liang Yue was pleasantly surprised, feeling that the company had been extremely thoughtful.

the other side.

On the evening of May 8, the turmoil in Annam finally subsided. It had lasted for three days, during which more than 100 companies from Korea, Japan, Europe and the United States were vandalized and looted.

Under Chen Yansen's instructions, Mimo continuously pushed information about the chaos in Annan to users around the world, causing a global uproar.
