Top Student: Experience Infinite Occupations - Chapter 158
Chapter 158 Sanction Begins, Production Restricted
“Boss, the situation now is very serious. The company is in a very dangerous situation.” Huang Ting’s tone was unusually serious.
Currently, all OEM factories have refused to produce the brainwave receivers.
Further, 180,000 brainwave receivers have to be delivered to users soon.
Failure to deliver the goods on time could result in a threefold compensation.
Nowadays, brainwave receivers have become the main source of income for the Divine Dragon Software Company.
Once the brainwave receivers couldn’t be produced, the consequences for Divine Dragon Software would be catastrophic.
This was because other than the brainwave receivers, the Divine Dragon Software Company only had three other products left.
The first was the Divine Dragon System. However, the Divine Dragon System was used by individuals for free. Although it had huge potential for future development, it could not contribute income to Divine Dragon Software Company now.
The second was the Divine Dragon Data Restoration software. However, the total income of the Divine Dragon Data Restoration software was less than 100 million yuan. It was not much help to the crisis that the Divine Dragon Software Company was currently facing.
The third was the authorization fee for the Divine Dragon Mobile Phone System. However, the amount of authorization fee to be earned was tied to the installation quantity. The three mobile phone manufacturers that were currently working with Li Chengqian had already stopped the production of their mobile phones because of their involvement with Divine Dragon Software.
All the sources of income had been strategically sealed off by the other party!
“I received a call from Director Wu earlier.
They have stopped production of our brainwave receivers! Currently, only 20,000 brainwave receivers have been produced! We are still 180,000 units short of fulfilling the order.”
“If we can’t deliver the goods within the specified time, according to the sales contract, our company will pay three times the compensation! We need to compensate 5.4 billion yuan!” Huang Ting kept his voice low.
“President Huang, contact Baidu and Heyme first and ask the National Telecommunications Manufacturing Company to help find a new factory!”
Li Chengqian’s calm voice came from the phone. There were many OEM factories in the country. If Director Wu refused to work with him, he could still find other factories to help.
“President Li, I’ve already contacted them. No one would accept our orders. Even if we double the production cost, no one will help us produce it,” Huang Ting said with a bitter smile.
Materials could not be bought!
There were raw materials, and no factory to produce them.
The products couldn’t be sold!
Facing these three situations, it was very difficult for any company to survive. There was no need to be defeated, they would crumble on their own.
“They have stopped production work for any company that is collaborating with us, including Heyme! Director Wu of the OEM factory said that unless Heyme ends its collaboration with Divine Dragon Software, production of Heyme phones will stop indefinitely.” The oppression of the Divine Dragon Software Company was very intense and unprecedented.
The Divine Dragon Software Company had to be razed to the ground at all costs!
This fervent attitude frightened many people. The companies that had wanted to explore collaborations with Li Chengqian didn’t dare to do so after seeing how intense the backlash was!
“President Huang, I understand the situation. I will think of a way.” Li Chengqian’s voice was still calm. He was not discouraged by the difficulties he encountered.
After ending the call, Li Chengqian opened Weibo.
The number one trending topic on Weibo was the Divine Dragon Software Company! “Divine Dragon Software has stepped on the core interests of the competitors. There are only two ways out for the Company. It’s…” Li Chengqian clicked on the article with the highest readership and started reading.
The article was very well written. The reason for the attack on Divine Dragon Software was very clear.
Firstly, the operating system was a core interest overseas, and Divine Dragon Software Company had stepped on their core interest!
Control over the operating system would mean a control over the entire software industry. This was a market worth trillions of dollars a year. It has been the territory of the overseas powers and no one was allowed to touch it.
Whoever dared to touch their territory would be killed!
Secondly, brainwave coding technology was a disruptive innovation. Whoever mastered this technology would effectively have a control over the future of the software industry. After Divine Dragon Software started selling the brainwave receivers, software technology in the country would definitely grow at an exponential speed. Furthermore, the foreign countries were still using ancient keyboard input methods, so their efficiency was very low. It was very likely that the Divine Dragon Country would surpass them in software technology within an extremely short period of time.
They wouldn’t be able to accept this! The article analyzed the reasons and pointed out a solution for Divine Dragon Software.
The first was to open up financing and integrate overseas. As long as Divine Dragon Software became an open company that accepted overseas funding, all the current problems would be solved.
The second was that Li Chengqian should sell the company to the country. With the country’s support, at least the Divine Dragon Software Company wouldn’t go bankrupt. After that, Li Chengqian read some more articles. Everyone thought that Divine Dragon Software Company would suffer a huge blow in this wave of restrictions, or even go bankrupt. “Damn it!”
“When they saw that we had advanced technology, they suppressed us like crazy.”
“The Divine Dragon will never give in!”
“Can someone tell me how to donate to the Divine Dragon Software Company?”
“F*ck it.”
“Please remember one thing. Today, it’s the Divine Dragon Software Company. Tomorrow, it can really be you or any company!”
“Although I’m very angry, based on the current situation, the best way forward for the Divine Dragon Software Company is to cooperate with the country!”
“Divine Dragon Software, don’t hesitate. Only the country can protect you!”
“Someone has an agenda against Divine Dragon Software. As long as the Divine Dragon Software Company can’t deliver the brainwave receivers on time, they will launch a huge claim against it.”
“I heard that the OEM factories have stopped producing the Divine Dragon Software Company’s brainwave receivers. They have also stopped production for all the companies that with the Divine Dragon are collaborating Software Company.”
The discussion on the internet was very intense. Those who saw the news knew that the Divine Dragon Software Company was in a precarious position.
If the brainwave receivers couldn’t be delivered in time, the funds accumulated by the Divine Dragon Software Company would be exhausted.
After Li Chengqian looked at it for a while, his expression was calm as he closed the webpage.
“Do you really think that you can seal my path like this?”
also “Director Wu’s factory refuses to produce brainwave receivers! The other factories refuse to help with the production. Then… I’ll produce it myself!”
“It’s impossible for you to restrain me! It’s even more impossible for you to control me!”
“The torrent of technology is invincible! Whoever stands in front of it will be crushed by it!”
The last method was for Li Chengqian to use his skills. He could use the Manufacturing Principles skill to analyze the brainwave receiver and then use the Expedited Processing skill to replicate it.
However, this wasn’t a long-term solution. It couldn’t be used routinely and could only be used in emergencies.
The second method was to build his own automated factory and fully automate the production of brainwave receivers.
As long as he established his own project, he would no longer be held ransom by the factories.
The crisis that happened today would never happen again.
“Coincidentally, I’ll take this opportunity to build the production factory of Divine Dragon Software!” Li Chengqian had a plan in mind.
“Bai Ze, develop the automated factory version of the Intelligent CAD software. Make this task your top priority!” Li Chengqian’s voice was cold like the arctic wind. The automated factory version of the Intelligent CAD is to intelligently design automated production lines according to production requirements. After the design of the automated factory version of the Intelligent CAD was completed, he only needed to buy the corresponding equipment according to the list given by the software and install it according to the requirements of the design. Then, he could start the automated manufacturing. As long as the automated factory version of Intelligent CAD software was developed, the rest would be much easier. “Master, the software development tasks have been adjusted. The automated factory version of the Intelligent CAD software has been adjusted to the first priority in the tasks list.” Bai Ze’s voice came from the computer. “Calculating the time taken to develop the automated factory version of the Intelligent CAD software.”
“It will take 36 hours to develop the automated factory version of Intelligent CAD software.” Bai Ze estimated a considerable period of time was needed.
“Too slow!” Li Chengqian was a little dissatisfied with this speed. If it was any other time, Li Chengqian wouldn’t be bothered about the issue of time. After all, this speed compared to normal development speed was already the speed of light. Using normal software development methods, it took only three years to develop an automated factory version of the Intelligent CAD software.
But now, time was of the essence to Li Chengqian.
Every additional day was a huge risk for the Divine Dragon Software Company. Moreover, in order to build the production capacity of the Divine Dragon Software Company, other than designing software, Li Chengqian still had a lot of things to do.
He also needed to purchase or build factories, purchase and install production equipment, develop related control systems, and so on. These tasks will take time to complete.
