Chapter 146 The Opportunity for Manufacturing in Kinmen

Ding Xin could understand Huang Chunzhi's state of mind at that moment.

Previously, he had only lived in a small, secluded place called Gari Peak Cave.

It's normal to feel a bit apprehensive about partnering with such a large company like Tianxia Auto these days.

Moreover, Ding Xin was a hands-off manager.

Judging from the current situation, Hwang Chun-sik has done a very good job.

So far, nothing has happened at the manufacturing company that has particularly bothered Ding Xin.

Let’s go further.

Rather than blaming Hwang Chun-sik.

It would be better to blame the technicians and management.

They were present when the contract was signed, and they were the ones who set the date.

Don't they know whether the project can be completed on time?

Neither Ding Xin nor Huang Chunzhi knew anything about these things.

But now is not the time.

The manufacturing plant is just starting out, so stabilizing morale is the most important thing right now.

In addition, the manufacturing and processing industry is inherently prone to unexpected events.

As long as there's a way to handle it.

"By the way, how's that thing I asked you to do going?"

Ding Xin suddenly asked.

"Well, we're still tracking them, but so far, those factories seem to be doing quite well, making it difficult for us to make a move..."

Huang Chunzhi immediately realized what Ding Xin was referring to.

Just a while ago.

Ding Xin suddenly approached him and instructed him to pay close attention to the mobile phone parts processing plants under Kinmen Manufacturing.

It means they want to see if they can acquire a few companies.

Although Huang Chunzhi was somewhat confused, he resolutely carried out the order.

During this period, besides being busy with the machines, he focused all his attention on those small factories.

However, there has been no progress so far.

The main reason is that these people are nominally all under your Kinmen Manufacturing Group, and they usually behave very obediently.

If you resort to trickery and coercion, you'll alienate others.

If people's hearts are scattered, it will be difficult to lead the team.

Therefore, Hwang Chun-sik could only act according to circumstances.

Of course, Ding Xin understood this principle, so he only had Huang Chunzhi keep an eye on things.

We can't openly rob them; we can only look for loopholes to exploit.

As for why Ding Xin suddenly had the idea to set up several mobile phone accessory OEM factories.

This all started with an incident in early January.

Ding Xin happened to see a news report from the United States.

There was a company called Orange that held a press conference to introduce their latest smartphone.

The name is also strange; it's called Orange!

Upon closer inspection of the entire report, Ding Xin was immediately shocked.

Good guy.

Isn't this Orange Company just Apple in another timeline?

Apart from their names, the two companies are virtually identical in terms of both their products and development trajectories.

This orange phone also runs the newly invented iOS system.

It abandons the traditional physical keyboard and adopts multi-touch and touch screen technology.

The screen size has also been expanded to a revolutionary 3.5 inches.

It's basically a carbon copy of the first-generation Apple computer!

Moreover, the Symbian system is still prevalent at present.

The release of the new generation of Orange phones did not generate much of a response.

Limited by its fragile and easily broken display and limited battery life, this phone is not favored by the media at all.

But Ding Xin, drawing on his memories from his past life, knew that this phone was destined to trigger a technological revolution.

Ultimately, it comes down to its iOS system.

Ding Xin's focus was on the Android system, which it was benchmarking against.

To my recollection, the two systems were released in the same year.

However, one is at the beginning of the year, and the other is at the end of the year.

With the existence of iOS, the emergence of Android was inevitable; it was an unstoppable trend.

This is also an opportunity.

An opportunity that could propel his Kinmen manufacturing to new heights.

Since taking over Kinmen Manufacturing, Ding Xin has been wondering about the future of the manufacturing company.

Currently, the South Korean market for manufacturing is nearing saturation.

If you want to establish yourself.

Alternatively, we can only engage in supporting manufacturing for others.

Either you have to innovate and forge your own path to break through the encirclement!

The supporting manufacturing has already been connected with Tianxia Auto, and in the short term, making a living should not be a problem.

What about the innovative aspects?

Ding Xin was initially clueless, but now he saw hope.

Smartphones!

This thing that everyone in this other dimension carries around is still in the brick era.

Change is about to happen...

Following this line of thought, Ding Xin also had a clear goal for the future development of the manufacturing company.

Create your own brand of mobile phones!

However, this thing can't be rushed.

The Kinmen Group is still in its early stages and simply doesn't have the resources to independently develop its own mobile phone brand.

Ding Xin does have the skills, but unfortunately he lacks both money and technical expertise.

Going from 0 to 1 is too difficult; it could burn through your wallet.

Going from 1 to 2 is relatively much simpler.

Therefore, his focus should remain on the Tianxia Group going forward.

To be precise, it was placed in another behemoth company under their umbrella—Tianxia Electronics.

Besides its main business of home appliances, Tianxia Electronics also has its own mobile phone brand, meaning they possess a complete set of related technologies.

What Ding Xin needs to do is to invest in his own processing plant and try to take over a portion of their mobile phone OEM business.

It would be best to get guidance from their technical staff.

Even if it requires a larger investment, it's worth it.

Once the OEM factory is established, we can do OEM business while recruiting technical personnel.

We should try our best to learn from their experience and techniques to prepare for future independent research and development.

Once the Android system technology matures and is released as open source, that will be the time to wait.

Ding Xin can simply take it and let the technicians innovate and develop based on it, establishing their own brand...

Of course, you shouldn't put all your eggs in one basket.

Even if you have a very good relationship with Tianxia Group, they will never hand over their core technologies to you.

then what should we do?
