In the distance,
The city lights twinkled like stars.
The uncle and nephew were discussing business.
Mother Tang and Father Tang listened from the side, unable to join the conversation due to its complexity, but it was still good for broadening their horizons. To accommodate them, Tang Qing spoke in layman’s terms.
Perhaps in the future, the parents would no longer want to manage the Jewelry Store.
Other business ventures often follow similar business strategies.
As they were talking,
Tang Qing suddenly made a suggestion.
"Uncle, Microcrystalline Technology will soon be entering the Asian market; your battery factory could expand a little," he said, although the ergence of filters had significantly reduced interest in photovoltaic energy around the world.
However,
The at that’s ant to be served,
Will still be there.
Especially since he had received a call from Zhan Xi, who ntioned that Huaxia would still persist in reducing the use of fossil fuels in the photovoltaic industry. Although filters could filter out harmful gases, they did not filter out carbon dioxide.
The greenhouse effect,
Still remained an unavoidable issue.
Tang Kai responded, "I’m already onto that. The new factory is being set up in the newly planned Xicheng Industrial Park within the capital. Microcrystalline Technology’s products are excellent. I’ve heard that Myanmar has recently been interested in investing in photovoltaic energy as well, and I’ll keep an eye out for you."
This was, of course, sothing Tang Qing knew.
"Thanks, Uncle. I suggest you also invest in a lithium-ion battery factory," he advised.
With a puzzled look,
Tang Kai sought an explanation.
"Currently, lead-acid batteries are mainly used for backup power for equipnt, electric cars, and automotive industries, but in terms of smaller energy applications, lithium batteries will have broad prospects in the future, and my company could really use them," Tang Qing explained.
Tang Kai furrowed his brows. "Lithium batteries? Is that feasible? I recall that lithium battery enterprises have always been controlled by the Myanmar Bank Group and have not appeared on the list of investnt projects."
"It’s doable. Their relevant policies will be released soon. It’s not necessary to start in the Myanmar Economic Zone; it can be done in Huaxia. Additionally, a subsidiary of the lead-acid battery factory can be built in Huaxia," Tang Qing said with certainty.
"Another lead-acid battery factory?" Tang Kai was confused.
Tang Qing nodded.
"Yes, you might have heard that last year, Lang Cai borrowed more than one hundred billion RMB from Huaxia, and Ling also borrowed over one hundred billion, all of which was retained within Huaxia. Now, more than a year has passed."
"Factories involved in heavy industry, automobiles, and other sectors will definitely need batteries, and as a long-term partner of the Myanmar Bank Group, you will certainly have an advantage in securing supply contracts," Tang Qing continued.
"Not only that, you can also get in touch with Huawei."
"You know, the majority of machine rooms have storage batteries for backup to ensure communication. 4G is a joint project between Zhihua Technology and Huawei, and you still have the opportunity to bid, especially since 4G has not yet been fully rolled out..."
It’s been so long since various projects started.
Though it would take at least another year or more to start producing cars,
Still,
The construction of the battery factory would also take ti.
Preparations for the tenders should be made in advance, and getting involved now would be just right, not too early nor too late. Huawei is also the sa; 4G is still in testing, but suppliers need to be determined early.
After listening,
Tang Kai had a sudden realization. He only then rembered that Myanmar Bank Group had invested a lot in Huaxia’s manufacturing industry and that production would start soon. "Right, but I’m worried the competition might be too fierce."
"Uncle, have confidence in yourself. With products of the sa quality, don’t be afraid to compete," Tang Qing encouraged, mindful that the Myanmar Bank Group’s invested industries possessed more sovereignty than average joint ventures.
With Ling in position,
The Myanmar Bank Group was essentially Myanmar’s central enterprise.
When they say who is the supplier,
No one needs to look at anyone else’s face, and besides, Tang Qing had never intended to focus on Huaxia as the main sales territory. From the start, Tang Qing had set his sights on the global market, aiming to compete with Toyota and General Motors for business.
As if reassured by a sedative, Tang Kai decided, "That’s true. What about lithium batteries, any other applications for them?"
"Plenty, mobile phones, electronic devices all need them. I think, no matter what, it won’t be a loss. If Huawei makes mobile phones, tablets, computers, it’s also a substantial business," Tang Qing said.
"Okay, then I’ll build another two factories in Huaxia," Tang Kai decided.
Dealing with the Myanmar Bank Group had always been easy for Tang Kai, who was also a Chamber of Comrce mber, so he had great hope. "By the way, Tangtang, how’s the research and developnt at Qingyuan Technology going?"
"The progress is very fast. I’ve set a target for them to go public by the middle of next year." Two months later, Apple’s first-generation phone will be released, and by June next year, it is scheduled to hit the market.
There’s still a long way to go before the launch of the Apple 4.
Therefore,
In the initial phase,
Tang Qing planned to try and push Apple down a bit, intrigued by the future company that had an enormous amount of liquid assets, with hundreds of billions of dollars just in banking reserves and eager to play with Steve Jobs.
"So soon? Does that an you have a prototype model already?" Tang Kai asked, surprised.
"Yes, we do."
"What does it look like?"
"Though it’s called a prototype, it’s actually close to the final product already. Hang on a second, I’ll go to my room to get it. I will be right back," said Tang Qing as he stood up. Of course, it wasn’t in his bag; he had to go back to the Command Room to get it.
"Okay."
Tang Qing returned to his room.
He quickly entered the Command Room, then teleported to the Research Area.
A scientist handed him a black mobile phone.
The developnt at Qingyuan Technology,
Guided by the Fighters, was nearing the final product in his hands; to avoid abruptness, Tang Qing even deliberately controlled the pace of research and developnt.
In his hand,
Was a true market-ready smartphone.
Back in his room,
Tang Qing ca out to the rooftop platform.
"Here you go, Uncle," Tang Qing passed it to him.
"It’s very stylish."
Tang Kai examined its appearance under the light and felt its weight, praising it.
"This is a smartphone?"
"Yes, this is one of our company’s upcoming flagship smartphones. It forgoes the small screen, opting for a larger one that’s easier on the eyes. It has dual high-definition caras on both the front and back..."
Even by the ti Apple reached the fifth generation,
They still used small screens.
For Tang Qing, who was accustod to large-screen phones, this was unacceptable, so from the outset, he discarded the small screen. Relying on the experience of a large screen, he would have enough to compete with Apple in the initial stages.
Later on,
As people beca accustod to large screens,
Even Apple’s fifth-generation phones would have to kneel; this was a nearly irreversible trend. It was easy to switch from small to large screens, but going from large back to small screens, especially to the ’small’ size of an Apple 4, was truly challenging.
To create a clear differentiation from Apple,
Tang Qing decisively planned that, for the ti being, all Qingyuan Technology phones would use notch screens. On the matter of buttons, there was also a considerable difference; instead of hard keys on the panel, virtual keys were used.
Apple had reduced their panel buttons to just one.
Tang Qing couldn’t allow himself to do any less than them,
Directly eliminated them all.
With these changes,
The distinction was clear, and it also made it easier to navigate around patents.
