Xiaomi Heavy Industry, its first entrepreneurial venture!

Chapter 125: Forget it! (Second update!)

Lin Yi couldn't imagine that after this batch of rice cookers was sent to Japan, it would be bought by elderly tourists and brought back to China.

Then, what would it be like if these elderly folks accidentally threw canned goods or pressurized items into the pot while using it, resulting in an explosion?

He dared not think.

Considering this possibility, he didn't want to stay in the finance office any longer; he needed to confirm this as soon as possible.

He knocked on the office door, and when Ji Shuangshuang turned around, he said softly:

"go to bed early."

After leaving those words, Lin Yi took the clothes back to his office, took out the document, pulled out his phone, organized what he wanted to say, and then found Tao Zhanpeng's number and dialed it.

He wasn't sure if the other end was waiting for him, but the call was answered just two or three seconds after it connected, and then Tao Zhanpeng's cheerful voice came through:

"Has Mr. Lin made up his mind?"

"I need to confirm a few things."

"please say."

"Is Murakami Corporation targeting the middle-aged and elderly people who will travel to Japan after the New Year? You must answer that clearly. If it is, then the design must take this group into full consideration."

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while before a voice came through.

It wasn't the sound of speaking, but a burst of laughter.

Amidst laughter, Tao Zhanpeng spared no praise, complimenting Lin Yi:

"President Lin is indeed President Lin. He was able to find out Murakami Corporation's target with just a few words."

"That's right, their target is indeed the group of people who will travel from China to Japan and South Korea after the New Year."

"Indeed, as you said, the proportion of middle-aged and elderly people is very large."

"If you were to design it, Mr. Lin, what elements do you think would be best to use on the product?"

Upon hearing the confirmation, Lin Yi's face twitched, and he couldn't help but roll his eyes.

have to.

That thing can't be sold.

We need to find a different approach.

However, it's not a big problem. The factory already has ready-made templates, so we can just make a few minor modifications.

Letting out a breath, Lin Yi mentally rehearsed the prepared topic once more before softly replying:
"Bamboo and pandas."

"Chinese people like bamboo, Japanese people like bamboo, and people in both countries like pandas."

"With these two elements added, it will definitely be a bestseller."

“However…” Lin Yi abruptly stopped speaking, then deliberately increased the volume of his breathing.

His breathing was rapid, as if he was thinking about something very important.

After a long silence, Tao Zhanpeng's voice came from the other end of the phone:
"But what?"

"You have to pay more!"

After those words, a soft chuckle came from the phone, followed by a sigh:
"I will pass this on to the people at Murakami Agriculture Co., Ltd. They should add a little money, but not much."

"But if you want to get more money, Mr. Lin, I suggest you start preparing a plan now. Even a flawed plan will be a plus."

Goodbye, goodnight!

After hanging up the phone and confirming his guess, Lin Yi felt a slight headache.

Oh no, I have to work overtime again.

First, we need to get through this period before the Lunar New Year, and then we can start recruiting, recruiting even more people.

Drop all that work and be the boss. If the boss is working like a dog every day, can he still be called a boss?
After struggling for a moment, Lin Yi decided to take a shower before going to sleep.

He slept very comfortably, as did the people at Xiaomi Heavy Industry, but none of the people from the 10 companies he collaborated with slept.

Everyone is working overtime.

Of course, our competitors are also working overtime.

At Gree's Yangtze River Delta headquarters, on the top floor corridor, Cai Feng finished his phone call and turned to walk into the conference room next to him.

The nearly 100-square-meter conference room was filled with management from all levels of the Yangtze River Delta headquarters, and at the very front of them sat a long-haired woman in a suit.

These people just sat there in the meeting room, no one spoke or did anything else.

Cai Feng quickly pushed through the crowd, walked to the long-haired woman, bent down, and whispered:

"Sister Dong, we've found out."

“A Xiaomi Heavy Industry has indeed emerged in Suzhou, and this Xiaomi Heavy Industry has about 10 factories under it.”

"These 10 or so factories involve many industries, including metal manufacturing, electrical appliance manufacturing, and communications manufacturing."

"Our technical staff, brought from headquarters, are disassembling home appliances purchased from Xiaomi Heavy Industry. If it's really as the report says, then Xiaomi Heavy Industry will become ours in the next few years..."

"Stop!" Sister Dong raised her hand, interrupting Cai Feng's next words.

He waved his hand again, signaling Cai Feng to leave the meeting room first.

Seeing this, Cai Feng didn't say much, just nodded slightly and turned to leave.

After the conference room door closed again, Sister Dong, sitting at the head of the table, tapped the table with her hand and said with an extremely arrogant expression:

"You bunch of useless trash..."

"A batch of products produced by chance by an unknown small company."

"You guys were scared half to death."

"I now seriously doubt whether you are worthy of the salary I pay you."

"We recruited you to expand our business and help it develop better."

"You guys are doing just fine, watching people embezzle and become corrupt, watching people do it."

“If the Economic Crime Investigation Team here hadn’t contacted me, and if someone hadn’t sent a tip to my email, I wouldn’t have believed this happened to us.”

"You have wasted the company's investment in you, and you have caused the company huge losses."

"So here, I only have one request for you."

“You shall return all the wages you have received over the years to the company, and at the same time, compensate the company for its losses at five times the amount of these wages.”

"If you don't agree, I'll send you all to jail."

Having said these undeniable words, Sister Dong stood up abruptly, slammed her hand on the table, and glared fiercely at everyone present:
"I'm only giving you 24 hours to consider."

After stating the time of the ultimatum, Sister Dong kicked the chair away and stormed out of the meeting room.

At the door, Cai Feng stood by the door, his waist slightly bent, appearing very respectful. Half a step behind him was a middle-aged man in work clothes, holding a document in his hand. Like Cai Feng, the middle-aged man was also bent over, his face full of respect.

Sister Dong stopped in front of him, crossed her arms, and said with a murderous look on her face:

"You take your people and personally investigate all the employees in the Yangtze River Delta region."

“Even if there’s only an earthworm, you have to pull it out of the soil and scrub it hard.”

After hearing Sister Dong's words, Cai Feng looked slightly embarrassed, then quickly turned around, took the document from the middle-aged man's hands, and presented it forward slightly with both hands:
"Sister Dong, I think you need to take a look at this first."

Snapped!
Cai Feng's hand, holding the documents, was slapped away. Sister Dong tilted her head slightly, her eyes wide as saucers.
Didn't you hear what I said?

“A small company, even with technology, will still have to languish in the manufacturing industry.”

"Our most important task now is to purge, to get rid of all these internal cancers." "Understood?"

"If you don't understand, then let someone else understand!"

"To repel external aggression, one must first secure internal stability; this is an age-old truth!"

The louder he shouted, the lower Cai Feng's head drooped.

After finishing her tirade, Sister Dong turned around gracefully and walked away, her high heels clicking on the floor.

The middle-aged man behind Cai Feng quickly squatted down, trying to pick up the documents on the ground. Just as his right hand reached out, Cai Feng stepped on the documents.

"Manager Zhao, don't pick it up."

“I’ll be out running around these next couple of days, so you can follow the normal technical review and verification process, generate the corresponding report, and then submit it to Sister Dong.”

The low voice made Manager Zhao's expression freeze. He quickly calculated the time required for the process and exclaimed, "But there won't be enough time!"

"The entire process, even at the fastest, will take at least three months. With the Lunar New Year holiday, the whole process will take at least four months."

"The daylily is already too cold after 4 months."

"You have to understand that there must be competitors behind this incident."

He spoke with great urgency, and as soon as he finished speaking, he reached out to grab the document.

However, Cai Feng did not loosen his grip; instead, he increased the force.

As Manager Zhao looked up in confusion again, Cai Feng lowered his head, their eyes met, and Cai Feng, with a mocking expression, asked:

"You don't want to be called a good-for-nothing, do you?"

Manager Zhao remained silent, only withdrawing his hand.

…………

It was already midnight, but Gao Jin showed no signs of sleepiness; on the contrary, he seemed unusually excited.

In the afternoon, an employee who had been lying in wait at the Suzhou Sports Center brought back the sales figures for Xiaomi Heavy Industry's products for the day.

That evening, he incorporated the sales figures into the plan, completed the plan, and finally sent it to headquarters.

The head office has the authority to decide on marketing strategies in China.

For the sake of profits, the head office will definitely approve this marketing strategy.

When the Gree brand completely disappears from the Yangtze River Delta region, it will be the biggest contributor to Panasonic's success in the region.

Then, he could use this to expand nationwide, and then, together with Shinji Oda, he could pry open the doors of the head office's top executives, take their places, become the CEO second only to one person, dump his wife, marry a beautiful and wealthy woman, and officially reach the pinnacle of his life.

Thinking about the future, he was wide awake.

Just then, the phone on the desk rang. Gao Jin lunged forward, grabbed the phone, and quickly answered it.

On the other end of the phone was a hoarse voice, clearly altered to the point that it was impossible to recognize who it was.

When the call connected, the other party only said one sentence:

"Ms. Dong has isolated all the management teams of Gree Electric Appliances in the Yangtze River Delta region."

"Under quarantine investigation."

Upon receiving this news, Gao Jin burst into laughter, his laughter growing increasingly unrestrained and wild.

The person on the other end hung up the phone amidst his laughter.

After hanging up the phone, Gao Jin walked to the wine cabinet next to him, took out a bottle of red wine, and without taking a glass, directly pulled out the cork and went to the window to drink it.

Don't sleep, just stay awake until morning, then go to the company and give orders.

Completely drive Gree out of the Yangtze River Delta region.

It took him four hours to finish the bottle of wine.

After washing up with hot water, changing into his best clothes, and grabbing his briefcase, he drove his Audi to the company.

He arrived at the company on time at 8:30 a.m.

As soon as he entered the room, he instructed the receptionist, "Call all departments and have them come to the conference room to prepare to launch the plan."

Upon hearing the instruction, the receptionist froze for a moment, then peeked out and said cautiously:
"Mr. Gao, several leaders from the Japanese headquarters and the higher-ups are waiting for you in conference room number 1. They specifically instructed that as soon as they see you, they should immediately notify you to come over."

Gao Jin, beaming with confidence, failed to notice the awkwardness on the receptionist's face. After hearing these words, he assumed that the head office and the Japanese company had reviewed his plan and had come specifically to see how he would implement it.

He continued confidently into the elevator, sat down through the stainless steel doors, and slightly adjusted his tie and hairstyle.

The elevator doors opened, and he strode out, heading towards Conference Room 1.

Pushing open the door, he indeed saw several people in the conference room, including Shinji Oda.

He smiled and greeted Shinji Oda, then turned and walked toward Wu Pei, the CEO of the head office.

"Mr. Wu!"

Wu Pei smiled and nodded to Gao Jin, then pointed to the side: "Ms. Matsushita Nobuko."

As Wu Pei introduced herself, Gao Jin noticed that there was a woman in her twenties sitting next to Wu Pei.

The woman was wearing a black suit, and beneath her short skirt were a pair of long, slender legs encased in black stockings.

They are overlapping.

Her long, black hair made her face appear exceptionally small and delicate.

Her bright red lips stirred a flutter in Gao Jin's heart, who was over 40 years old.

White, rich and beautiful girl.

As he looked over, Matsushita Nobuko also looked at him. Then, she parted her lips slightly and said something that would not make Gao Jin happy, but rather something that would fill him with despair:

"Mr. Gao Jin, on behalf of the board of directors of Panasonic Corporation of Japan, I hereby formally announce your appointment."

"Given that you have repeatedly bypassed your superiors, ignored the existence of the China Regional Headquarters, and disregarded Panasonic's development policy, attempting to revise Panasonic's development strategy in China, the Board of Directors has determined that you are not an honest or upright person."

"He is someone who will cause losses to Panasonic."

"Therefore, the board of directors has decided to dismiss you."

"The corresponding compensation will be calculated with you by relevant personnel. From now on, please return all information and materials related to Panasonic Electric in your possession."

"You may leave only after the return is complete."

While the woman was speaking, Shinji Oda was frantically waving his hands and trying to speak silently beside her.

Gao Jin stared wide-eyed, and after a moment of struggling to make out what Oda Shinji was saying:
"I didn't do it!"

Having read what Shinji Oda wanted to say, Gao Jin took a deep breath and quickly explained:

"Ms. Nobuko Matsushita, the reason I came up with this plan is because of the emergence of Xiaomi Heavy Industries."

"Their advanced technology foreshadows their future dominance of the entire Chinese home appliance market."

“Competing with them is a waste of our time and energy.”

"Instead of opposing, it's better to join. Mr. Oda understands these things, and he has personally verified them. If you don't believe me, Ms. Matsushita Nobuko can ask him."

His earnest words made Nobuko Matsushita turn her head slightly and cast an inquiring glance at Shinji Oda.

Noticing the gaze, Shinji Oda straightened his back ramrod straight:

"Fake!"
