Super Island Tycoon

Chapter 136: Chapter 136: Samsung Wants to Stir Things Up!

Laputa City.

Bai Gong Riverfront, Large Flying Disc.

From the floor-to-ceiling windows on the top floor of the Large Flying Disc, one can see all the way across the Bai Gong River to the Future Technology Industrial Park.

In the dense primitive forest, clearings have been opened one after another, with numerous manufacturing plants and research buildings quietly standing among them.

As early as the inception of developing Laputa City, Jiang Cheng had earmarked this area to be built into a Future Technology Industrial Park, specifically to host startup companies with high-tech content.

And now, it has taken on quite a scale!

Numerous research institutions and high-tech enterprises have taken root here, and after more than a year of thriving, have borne fruitful results.

The new generation of flexible smartphone factories has also been officially put into production recently, bringing a tremendous burst of technological vitality and business opportunities here!

In a spacious meeting room, top executives from Jade Island, along with the CEOs of the four major mobile phone giants of Hua Country, were having a critical mobilization meeting.

The trial version of the flexible smartphone has been successfully validated, and it’s time to move into full production.

”According to the production plan, the first batch of flexible smartphones will officially enter the global market in two months!”

Yu Chengdong, the CEO of Hua Wei, reported to those present with full excitement on his face.

As a flagship figure in Hua Country’s mobile phone sector, Yu Chengdong has keen insight and decisiveness. Early on, he identified Future Technology as belonging under Jade Island’s flag, so he readily accepted Jiang Cheng’s cooperation invitation without hesitation.

And it was precisely because of this that he was the first to obtain the first release rights for flexible smartphones.

The first batch of flexible smartphones in the world will be under Hua Wei’s brand!

Following this, Yu Chengdong gave some reports on the specific production plan and product launch preparations.

It seems that he is extremely dedicated to Hua Wei’s brand, to an almost extreme extent.

After this, the other three mobile phone tycoons also gave their respective production plan reports.

Although all four major mobile phone companies have applied flexible technology, their design styles and philosophies still have significant differences.

For instance, Hua Wei pays more attention to commercial features and has an advantage in single-device performance with a grand and steady appearance, which has always been the style of Hua Wei phones.

As for the other phones, they focus more on fashion, youthfulness, more human-computer interaction experience, and other application scenarios.

In short, various companies have come up with ingenious ideas to meet the diverse needs of the broad user base, customizing multiple different styles of models.

This diversified design style and philosophy will be more conducive to worldwide promotion, thereby quickly capturing the world market!

As the meeting progressed, Jiang Cheng, seated at the main position, nodded slightly, expressing great satisfaction with the plans and arrangements of each mobile phone manufacturer.

However, he hesitated for a moment and suddenly asked, ”How are you considering pricing the flexible smartphones?”

”According to the usual cost-profit calculation, the new generation of flexible smartphones should be about two-thirds more expensive than ordinary smartphones,” Mi’s CEO Lei Jun replied.

The production lines built this time rented land from Laputa City and purchased a lot of components, which forced their company to invest a lot of money, so the current price is quite reasonable.

”This price is too high, reduce it to one-third!” Jiang Cheng hesitated for a moment before speaking.

To quickly capture the world market, the pricing of flexible smartphones must not be too high, otherwise, it will affect his plan.

”What? One-third, but how can our company profit? Keep in mind, we still owe a lot of land lease fees to Jade Island?” Upon hearing Jiang Cheng’s words, Lei Jun couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

How could the pricing be set like this!

They invested huge funds upfront to open up multiple production lines, almost draining their resources, yet Jiang Cheng lowers the price just like that, leaving Lei Jun speechless.

”There are plenty of ways to make a profit, but since we are already at the forefront of this era, we must seize this precious opportunity to quickly capture the market and cultivate users’ habits. Once we have a grip on the users, there will be ample opportunities to make money in the future,” Jiang Cheng smiled slightly and explained patiently.

As the pioneer of flexible phones, Jiang Cheng knew deeply that the most important thing at this stage is not making money but cultivating users into loyal fans. Only this way, when facing other competitors in the future, he won’t be easily defeated.

The saying goes ”capturing the throne is easier than keeping it,” and that’s a truth!

Following Jiang Cheng’s consistent ambition, since he is leading the era of flexible phones, he must make full use of this opportunity to establish a solid domain. Jiang Cheng is unwilling to give brands like Apple and Samsung any chance to recover.

Ultimately, under Jiang Cheng’s persuasion, the four mobile phone tycoons finally agreed with his view.

After the meeting ended, everyone returned to their respective factories to make final arrangements for the upcoming production sprint.

As for Jiang Cheng, he plans to head back to his villa to have a good rest.

However, just at this time, Monica, who had not been seen for a while, strode into the meeting room with an anxious look, saying to Jiang Cheng, ”Island Master, there is something you must pay attention to!”

Seeing Monica walking in hurriedly, Jiang Cheng was slightly stunned, seemingly not expecting her.

Previously, due to being busy with the flexible phone matters, Jiang Cheng had handed over miscellaneous tasks to her for handling. After such a long period of collaboration, he now fully trusts her.

And Monica, with her strong work ability, has never let Jiang Cheng down. No matter how big the problem, she handles it well, almost never needing Jiang Cheng to personally make decisions.

However, it seems now they might have encountered a truly challenging issue!

”What’s wrong, Monica?” Jiang Cheng slightly frowned and asked.

”Here’s the thing, Island Master. According to the reports from the intelligence department, in the past month, dozens of batches of South Korea’s spies have stealthily infiltrated Jade Island for espionage activities, seemingly plotting something in secret. Moreover, in some nearby sea areas of Jade Island, we have also discovered a large number of South Korean fishing vessels, leading us to suspect that South Korea is collecting our military intelligence,” Monica reported the sorted-out situation to Jiang Cheng in an orderly manner.

”Spies? Haha, is Samsung trying to stir things up?” Hearing Monica’s report, Jiang Cheng’s lips slightly curved into a meaningful smile.
