Chapter 059: Field Base Prototype 1
After thinking for a long time, Fujido Yuki looked at the staff around him and said, "What do you think of these two new products from Lishan Technology?"
The staff was prepared. After a little thought, they said, "These two products cannot be said to be failures. They can only be said to be useless."
“I even have some doubts that Chen She has become completely inflated by the success of “Embers Are Going Out” and let himself go, thinking that people will pay for any product he makes.”
“I really don’t see any chance of success for these two products.”
"If the Hi-Tech Group hadn't cut off their chip supply, there might still be some hope, but now..."
The aide did not continue speaking. It was obvious that he thought the subsequent results were already determined and did not need to be explained so clearly.
Fujido Yuki nodded slightly: "Normal people should think this way."
"From a conventional perspective, these two new products really have no appeal. Compared with the bracelets and game cabins we produce, they have no advantages in any aspect."
The aide asked tentatively, "So you mean we can just ignore it."
Fujido Yuki shook his head: "Of course not."
"In the next month, all our wristband products and game cabin products will be discounted and promoted. We will try to kill these two new products of Lishan Technology Group directly."
The aide was stunned for a moment, seemingly a little dazed.
Aren't these two new products considered to be no threat? Then why go to such great lengths to eliminate them?
What's more, Fujido Yuki had just made peace with Lishan Technology and agreed not to cause trouble, so why did he change his mind?
Fujido Yuki smiled slightly: "The so-called handshake and peace only means that we can no longer use gray means, but it has nothing to do with normal business competition."
"I just said that these two new products are indeed unattractive from a conventional perspective, but what if we look at them from an unconventional perspective?"
"I noticed that Chen She said at the press conference that this was not only a press conference, but also an art exhibition. You may think he was bragging, but I did see a strong sense of artistry in the sculpture, and the layout of the promotional materials in the entire venue was obviously carefully planned."
"Combined with my previous experiences with him, I can roughly draw a character profile for Chen She."
"From what we can see so far , Chen She's understanding of art seems to be pretty good, which is one of his few strengths. And he is also very proud of his artistic talent."
"But it is precisely because he puts all his energy into considering his artistic talent that he is not very good at company management, Mewtwo development, and strategic decision-making. As a leader, his performance is still a bit weak."
"A position more suitable for him should be art director."
“However, if we seriously consider the artistic value of these two products, and think about the driving effect of the Super Dream game “Embers Will Go Out” on the game cabin, I think it is very likely to become a niche product and turn around within a certain range.”
"So we can't afford to take the risk of raising a tiger that will cause trouble later. We must act decisively to kill it. Otherwise, if Lishan Technology can gain a foothold in the field of bracelets and Super Dream Game Cabin, it will be a major loss to our business in Liming City."
"I always feel that there is a master inside the Chen Group. Otherwise, with Chen She's weak leadership, how could it have developed to its current scale? It can't be just luck, right?"
"So we can't let it show any signs of turning over. We still have to take action when necessary."
The staff was speechless, thinking, you have said all the pros and cons.
Come on, you're the boss.
Although doing so is a bit unethical, there is no such thing as morality in business wars. Being kind to the enemy is being cruel to yourself.
Any careless neglect may lead to disaster. Fujido Yuki takes the threat of Risan Technology so seriously, which is a bit too cautious, but it also makes sense.
So the staff nodded and said, "Okay, I will notify the sales department of the bracelet and the Chaomeng game cabin to arrange a promotion. The promotion will start next month."
Fujido Yuki nodded.
The staff member added, "By the way, Changye Entertainment Group has sent another communication request, saying that they want to continue cooperating with us."
Fujido Yuki's face darkened instantly: "Rob Ryan still has the nerve to come to me again, do you really think I'm as easy to fool as a three-year-old child?"
"I was bewitched by him last time and almost made a big mistake. If I delay the development of Project Naraku just to kidnap a Mewtwo producer, and the head office holds me accountable, I will have no choice but to commit seppuku."
"Tell Changye Entertainment Group that if they want to deal with Lishan Technology, they can do it themselves. We don't have time to accompany you."
Obviously, although Fujido Yuki still remains vigilant about and eager to acquire Lishan Technology, he does not intend to cooperate with Changye Entertainment Group and plans to go it alone.
Changye Entertainment Group is really unreliable.
Fujido Yuki felt that as long as the Naraku Plan was successfully completed, he could immediately mobilize the resources of the branch company, and then it would be easy to swallow up Rishan Technology.
Fujido Yuki remembered something and asked, "By the way, have you found the chess master?"
The aide shook his head: "Not yet. Mr. Guanqi is rather cautious. It will take some time for us to find out, but it should be soon."
Fujido Yuki's face darkened and he said, "Find him right away. He's clearly in Liming City. We've been looking for him for so long and still haven't found him. Are you all a bunch of good-for-nothings?"
"Now the news about Naraku's plan has spread to a small area because of his space-time broadcast. Although we suppressed the information immediately and did not cause much impact, this is not a long-term solution. If it attracts the attention of some large consortium that is hostile to us, this matter will be troublesome."
"The Naraku Plan cannot fail. If the other big conglomerates take advantage of it, everyone in the branch will have to commit seppuku together."
The staff member felt the pressure and nodded quickly, "Yes, I will go and urge them right away. By the way, I will contact the DCPD and ask them to cooperate with us in the arrest. We will try to find the location of Mr. Guanqi within the next few days."
Fujido Yuki nodded and said, "Remember, be quick and make him die naturally. Don't leave any evidence behind."
After giving his instructions, Fujido Yuki rubbed his temples.
The high-intensity mental activity made him feel a little tired.
All of these aides are useless, and he has to personally evaluate every problem he encounters, which really makes him exhausted.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Mr. Fujido, there is news from the base that the Naraku Project has made significant progress. However, the next process requires a large amount of computing power and space-time particles, which are not enough at the base, so I came to ask you what to do?"
Fujido Yuki stood up suddenly: "Immediately transfer all the space-time particles in other warehouses to the base of the Naraku Project, and strengthen the security nearby."
"No matter what the cost, we must complete the Naraku Plan."
The staff member reminded: "Mr. Fujido, if we suddenly invest a lot of computing power, it may have a certain impact on the hash space. If there is a drastic fluctuation at that time, I am afraid it will be difficult to conceal it."
Fujido Yuki was prepared: "This is easy. You can go to the media to hype it up and say that the mining boom is coming again. Mining may cause a shortage of chips and strain the entire network's capacity."
The aide hesitated: "I'm afraid this reason will be difficult to cover up."
Fujido Yuki said coldly: "There is no need to cover up the past, just confuse the vision and cover the smooth completion of the Naraku plan."
…
…
Saturday, May 3rd.
Chen She was still carving and thinking about problems in the experience store.
Zhang Sirui, who was sitting next to him, would raise his bracelet to look at the data every once in a while, then sigh silently and put his hand down again.
Apparently, he was looking at the sales figures for the Shackle Bracelets and the Coffin-Catching Game Pod.
Since the launch event last Tuesday, the two new products have entered the sales stage, but the situation is not optimistic.
It cannot be said that the sales volume was dismal, it can only be said that no one bought it at all.
Although the atmosphere on the day of the press conference was very hot and it also sparked heated discussions online after the press conference, with many people discussing it, everyone generally had a mentality of playing with memes.
On the surface, it seems that many people are recommending this product, but in fact, no one will really buy it.
Those who are a little knowledgeable about the business regard this product as a hoax and discuss it heatedly, but they would never be so stupid as to buy such a product.
As for those who don’t know much about the business, although they don’t understand so many configurations, they at least know the brand and the chip, so they still won’t buy it.
In short, up to now, the batch of bracelets and Mewtwo game cabins produced are all piled up in the warehouse, no one is interested in them, and not a single one has been sold.
Zhang Sirui must have seen it and was worried.
Other employees in the company and even some customers in the experience store were worried about Chen She.
For example, Ji Yongkang was very worried, wondering if the poor sales were caused by the fact that his promotional materials were too shady. Chen She comforted him by telling him that the atmosphere at the press conference was very good, but people just hadn't discovered the excellence of these two products yet.
Not only did Chen She not seem to be in any hurry, he was urging the production line to speed up the production of more products.
Chen She also took some time out at the headquarters to hand-make a batch of chips and communication modules to ensure supply so that the foundry continued production.
In addition, Mewtwo has entered the shooting and editing stage, and may start pre-promotion next week.
After Li Yunhan joined, the efficiency was significantly improved. It must be said that the resistance army generally had the characteristics of workaholics. Li Yunhan often worked for 20 hours without rest and maintained a highly concentrated working state, which made Chen She feel sad.
He wanted to order him to go to bed immediately, because Chen She felt that every extra hour Li Yunhan worked would turn into a risk on his pendulum.
Zhao Zhen had sent people to pull the base vehicle to the wilderness for construction. Now, several barracks for living should have been built at the original location, a collection field for collecting space-time particles, and a high-energy electric field for providing energy. A batch of supplies was transported from the headquarters, and a group of resistance soldiers were assigned to be stationed there.
This base in the wilderness has been initially constructed.
However, Chen She has not been there yet. He plans to find a suitable opportunity to go there in a couple of days.
After carving another sculpture, Chen She stood up and said to Zhang Sirui, "Brother San, don't be depressed. Come with me for a walk."
Zhang Sirui was not in the mood to go shopping, but he still stood up and stayed beside Chen She. After all, he was responsible for protecting Chen She's safety.
The two left the experience store and wandered around the nearby blocks.
Chen She found that the environment in the nearby blocks had improved visibly.
This area was originally in chaos because of the fight between the Shark Gang and the Jungle Gang. The business of shops on both sides of the street was seriously affected, and there were few customers. Many shops were smashed and closed down.
But now the gang problem has been completely eradicated by Zhou Lei and his team, and this area has become a paradise for many small vendors. Setting up stalls here will not be charged protection fees, nor do you have to worry about safety issues. The business environment is good, and you can also take advantage of the flow of people in experience stores and bars.
Therefore, both roadside stalls and surrounding shops have become prosperous, and the rents of some shops have also risen sharply.
Chen She asked Zhou Lei to maintain the surrounding environment. Although the dirty and messy appearance of the neighborhood was not completely changed, at least the public security problem had been thoroughly improved and was significantly different from the surrounding neighborhoods.
These experience stores are like huge protective umbrellas, covering the entire nearby area.
Zhang Sirui asked: "Mr. Chen, we have produced so many bracelets and Super Dream Game Pods. If we really can't sell them, what are you going to do?"
Chen She smiled and said, "That's just right for us to digest it internally. I was just thinking of replacing new bracelets and new game cabins for all employees."
Zhang Sirui nodded helplessly: "Okay."
In his opinion, this was obviously not a good solution. All the products that were produced with great effort were consumed internally. The first batch was fine, but what if all employees had already switched to these products?
It is impossible for the entire manufacturing department to become a service for itself in the future. Without sufficient profits, it will ultimately be like a sourceless stream and there will be no way to enter a virtuous circle.
But Zhang Sirui didn't understand these issues and could only listen to Chen She.
At this time, Chen She was strolling around, paying attention to the situation in the nearby streets, especially the beggars on the roadside.
No one was too surprised by Chen She's behavior.
After all, most people in the nearby neighborhood know Boss Chen, and they also know that Boss Chen has a habit of saying hello to beggars.
Since Xia Lirong, some beggars and homeless people from other neighborhoods also came to try their luck. As a result, some of them were noticed by Boss Chen and got a job in the factory.
People nearby have become accustomed to seeing Boss Chen patrolling his territory.
Many people also took the initiative to say hello.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Chen."
"Boss Chen, when will the new Mewtwo be online? I can't wait."
"Boss Chen, we have just released a new product in our store. Would you like to try it?"
Chen She smiled and responded one by one. He was not worried that these people would harm him. After all, after getting to know them, he would establish a certain degree of space-time connection with them. As long as there was no dark orange color, it meant that these people were not a threat to him.
It’s true that, under Chen She’s unintentional management, this street has actually created a bit of humanity in this cruel society.
As Chen She was walking, he suddenly saw a passerby with a light blue light emitting from his body.
He was alert for a moment, thinking that this was Mr. Guanqi, but he soon realized that it was not right, because he was not wearing beggar's clothes, and he did not seem to be waiting for anyone, but was looking around, as if he was looking for something.
Chen She couldn't help but frown and thought, could this be person number 6?
But the light blue light emanating from his body clearly showed that he was from the Knights of Time and Space.
In other words, the previous speculation was correct. No. 6 is definitely not Aunt Li, but a person with synesthesia, and is very likely a member of the Time and Space Knights.
Will it be Grantham?
Chen She was not sure, but he vaguely felt that Grantham and No. 6 did not match each other.
This member of the Spacetime Knights did not react to Chen She. It was obvious that not every member of the Spacetime Knights had the ability to see the connection between time and space like Grantham.
So far, as a peripheral member of the Knights of Time and Space, only Grantham and his followers knew about this matter. The person sent to rescue Mr. Guanqi this time was an ordinary member, who obviously did not know the relationship between Chen She and the Knights of Time and Space.
Chen She turned around again calmly.
Just when he thought he would get nothing again, he suddenly discovered a light blue light coming from a garbage dump on the corner of the street.
Chen She cheered up and walked over with Zhang Sirui.
This location is a distance away from the experience store, so Chen She did not notice it at first. At this time, he looked at the homeless man and found that although he was wearing ragged clothes and lying next to the garbage, his eyes were bright and energetic. He seemed to have a sense of pride.
He looks to be in his 30s, but he has a weathered air and exudes a philosophical air.
Chen She was almost instantly certain that he must be Mr. Guanqi.
At the same time, I couldn't help but sigh that it is indeed difficult to conceal the changes that thoughts bring to people. Although he was dressed as a beggar, his temperament is completely different from that of a beggar.
Fortunately, Chen She found him first. If the Fujido Group had found him first, the consequences would have been disastrous.
Chen She pretended to be nonchalant as he approached him. He was not sure if there were any spies from the Fujitang Group or other large conglomerates nearby. He just bent down and said as if he were treating any other beggar: "Come with me, I can give you a job."
Mr. Guanqi looked at him and said in a low electronic voice: "Thank you, but it's not necessary."
Chen She was stunned for a moment, because Mr. Guanqi was not speaking with his own voice, but with a special device installed in his throat. He seemed to be a mute.
Chen She suddenly realized.
