Reborn to dominate technology

He turned his head to look at Master Ren, only to see him nodding repeatedly, seemingly convinced.

President Ren, my big boss, this might be a scam.

"Extraordinary people do extraordinary things, it's very reasonable. The experts at the Huaxing No. 1 Laboratory are people I admire. I'm not surprised they can achieve such miraculous technological leaps," Master Ren said with gratification.

Xu Wenwei was speechless at this moment. It's normal indeed, normal my ass! I absolutely don't believe it. Lu Haifeng must be fooling his big boss.

President Ren is in danger! Xu Wenwei secretly winked at Master Ren, using his eyes to tell him to quickly stall the negotiations. Lu Haifeng is definitely deceiving people.

"What's wrong, Xiao Xu? If you're tired, go outside and rest for a while," Master Ren said, then turned back to chat with Lu Haifeng.

Xu Wenwei "…"

Lu Haifeng and Master Ren didn't have time to pay attention to this small fry. Lu Haifeng changed the subject and said, "Although Huaxing Laboratory has mastered 14nm lithography machine technology, barely putting us in the world's leading ranks, all the chip manufacturing companies in the global market are in the hands of these tech giants."

"But facing layers upon layers of technological barriers, whether it's Huaxing Laboratory or Huawei, there are still many difficulties in truly achieving production."

Master Ren also nodded and said, "Let's work together. I'll be frank with you, Huawei has also mastered 30nm lithography machine technology and has more than 5,000 technical patents."

"Now we've entered a period of research and development fatigue. The company needs more fresh blood to join, but no one will join."

"Most importantly, very few people in Daxia Country want to make their own domestic chips. Basically, only the two of us are making mobile phone processor chips in the country. In the eyes of many, making chips domestically is simply a pipe dream."

"Launching such a project will even be unanimously opposed by the industry, who believe that investing in this will be a waste of money."

"Fools are not worth planning with."

Lu Haifeng sneered, "If I just wanted to make money, why would I go to so much trouble? Wouldn't it be easy to directly obtain authorization from those tech giants? Investing so much in research and development, if it fails, it might drag the company into an abyss."

"This is just a short-term risk, but when making investments, you need to have a long-term perspective. If one day the technology provider imposes a technology blockade, or the basic component suppliers stop supplying goods, then what's the point of playing?"

"So, when running a business, don't just think about making money all day long. That won't last long. Your Honor is about to go public, right? Just like I said just now, if you want to achieve a technological leap, there must be market competition. Let's both go in together, and let the market choose what's good or bad."

Master Ren nodded after listening, agreeing in his heart.

Lu Haifeng said, "So we need to cooperate frequently and complement each other's advantages."

Master Ren applauded and said, "Good, what Xiao Lu said is exactly what I want."

Lu Haifeng cannot accept lithography machines, semiconductors, and chip technology being held hostage by foreign tech giants, and wants to do everything possible to break through the foreign blockade. Master Ren also cannot accept it. Now, in the entire Daxia Country, probably only the two of them can reach a consensus on this issue.

After the two set this tone, they talked about many other things, covering all aspects. Everyone is involved in technology and has a global strategic forward-looking vision.

As the conversation deepened, Master Ren increasingly felt that Lu Haifeng and Huaxing Laboratory were worthy of Huawei's most serious attitude, and he was happy to accept his suggestions.

A strategic partner, not from Huawei, but so understanding of the Huawei ecosystem, sharing their worries and concerns. If they didn't attach great importance to him, it would simply be self-destruction.

This chat lasted for two whole hours. It was the first time the two sides had met, and this conversation was like travelers in the desert, encountering a confidant. You have food and I have water, and the conversation couldn't stop.

After eating at mealtime, the two chatted until three o'clock in the afternoon. Lu Haifeng took Zhang Yu to send Master Ren and Xu Wenwei to the airport.

After Master Ren returned, he called Zhao Liangyun, the head of Honor, and explained some things.

…

In the Honor brand conference room, Zhao Liangyun, after two days of careful consideration, felt that postponing the launch was the best solution. However, just as he was about to announce it, a cell phone vibration suddenly rang.

Zhao Liangyun wanted to hang up the phone, but when he saw the name on the phone's display screen, he quickly answered the phone in front of everyone in the company.

"President Ren."

Zhao Liangyun picked up the phone and, under the gaze of the company's employees, began to discuss in a low voice with the person on the other end of the phone. None of the company's employees dared to speak loudly, after all, they guessed who was calling after hearing Zhao Liangyun's address to the person on the other end of the phone.

More than ten minutes later, Zhao Liangyun slowly put down the phone, his eyes staring extremely seriously at the employees sitting in the conference room. In the ten minutes of conversation, President Ren on the other end of the phone had clearly given instructions that even if the phone lost money, the reputation of the Honor brand had to be established.

Zhao Liangyun instructed: "Directly put 200,000 two-hundred-yuan coupons on the official website."

"In addition, add a sentence to the new product's sales page: the first 100,000 customers who purchase a mobile phone will receive a 200-yuan mobile phone card."

Zhao Liangyun's actions made everyone in the conference room feel particularly shocked.

The price positioning of Honor mobile phones can be said to be very cheap, and now this series of measures and gifts can be said to have reduced the company's mobile phone profits to the lowest level.

According to this calculation, the company's profit for each Honor mobile phone sold is only a few dozen yuan.

Looking at the stunned expressions of the company's employees, Zhao Liangyun had already made up his mind to burn his boats and complete the task assigned by President Ren.
