"Did we lose?" The people from the four consortiums were a little confused. Their cables, which represented the most advanced technology of Fusang, actually lost to Hua Xia's cables?
The people from the four consortiums were confused. They felt that the Daqian must have cheated, but they couldn't find any evidence.
The cables were randomly selected from a large pile of cables in the construction site, and the detection equipment was from the Sumitomo Consortium. This was really too unscientific.
"Jia Jun, we were presumptuous today. We apologize to you!" Mitsui Xiuyi was still smart. He knew that the most important thing he had to do now was to repair his relationship with Boss Jia, so he immediately took the initiative to apologize.
"That's more like it!" Boss Jia sighed. "In fact, I also understand your thoughts. It's not wrong to want to make more money. What's more, what I earned was indeed Fusang's money, so it's reasonable for me to use your things!"
"And the cables from the Sumitomo Consortium are not bad. Although they are a little worse than our cables from Hua Xia, they are barely enough. Seeing that I'm using Fusang's funds, I can also purchase some of the cables from the Sumitomo Consortium appropriately!"
"Really!" The eyes of the Sumitomo Consortium's representative lit up. Although it didn't sound like much, with a total of 50 billion US dollars, it was still a few billion US dollars!
"Of course it's true, but it must be the quality of the cables you gave me today. There can't be any mistakes. I'll say it upfront. All the cables will be checked 10: 1. If there are any problems, the contract will be void!" Boss Jia said.
"Today's cables!" The expression of the Sumitomo Consortium's representative froze. Today's cables were taken from the laboratory, which meant that they could only be produced in small quantities. There was no mass production in a short time.
Of course, as long as the price was right, the Sumitomo Consortium could immediately start the mass production plan.
"Do you know the price?" The Sumitomo Consortium's representative couldn't help but ask.
"Of course, it's the same price as the cable I bought from Hua Xia!" Boss Jia smiled and said, "One meter of cable costs $20!"
"One meter and twenty dollars? This is impossible, this price is absolutely impossible! " When the people from the Sumitomo Consortium heard the price, they immediately jumped up and said, "This is a product that is being developed in the laboratory. If it is mass-produced, the price of one meter will be at least 100 USD. Otherwise, we won't even be able to earn back the cost!"
"Then there's no other way!" Boss Jia shrugged his shoulders and said, "That's the price of the cable purchased by Xiamu Network from Hua Xia. Moreover, the price includes tax."
"The quality of your cables is already lower than Hua Xia's. If the price is still higher than Hua Xia's, then there is absolutely no possibility of purchasing it!" Boss Jia said straightforwardly.
"Everyone!" Boss Jia looked at the other consortium representatives and said, "I'll say this. It's not that I don't want to use Fusang's cable. As long as the cable quality of your companies is not lower than Sumitomo's cable parameters, and the price is not higher than 20 USD per meter, then you can enter our Xiamu Network's purchase list."
"We will compete fairly and bid fairly. As long as the price-quality ratio meets the standards of Hua Xia's cable, then I will use your cable!" In the end, Boss Jia gave a generous speech. However, the faces of the people from the four consortiums turned ashen. They were extremely embarrassed.
A company like the Sumitomo Consortium that specialized in materials couldn't come up with a better price-quality ratio. How could the other consortiums have better things?
Moreover, 20 USD per meter was too cheap. If they were to supply at this price, they would have to pay for it!
No wonder the Daqian wanted to use all their cables. Even if it was them, after knowing the price of both parties, it was impossible for them not to choose the Daqian's cable!
In the end, the four consortiums that came aggressively left Xiamu with their tails between their legs. They didn't get anything, but they were full of bumps and shame.
"Did you notice? Xiamu's construction site is full of the same cables. This means that Hua Xia can already mass produce these cables, and our cables of the same standard are still in the laboratory. Who can guarantee that they can mass produce the same cables this year? "The representative of the Fuji Consortium couldn't help but sigh.
"We can't do it. Our Mitsui Consortium can't do it!"
"Sigh!"
"It's too embarrassing!"
The others were only left with exclamations. Not to mention this year, even in another one or two years, they might not be able to produce the mass-produced version of the cable!
"I can't believe that our Fusang's cable standards have actually lost to Hua Xia!" Mitsui Xiuyi said in disbelief.
"This is definitely not Hua Xia's ability. Maybe they bought the technology from the United States!" The representative of the Sumitomo Consortium gritted his teeth and said. They would never admit that Hua Xia's technology had surpassed theirs. Then, there was only one standard answer, and that was that the technology was from the United States.
Only when they were surpassed by the United States would they be convinced!
"Yes! Yes! "
"That's right!"
The others said one after another, and then no one was willing to talk about the cables anymore. This matter ended without any results.
Oh, it wasn't completely without any impact. For example, if the people of the four consortiums wanted to buy fiber optic cables in the future, they wouldn't produce them themselves. They would directly buy 20 USD per meter from the Daqian.
The reason was very simple, it was cheap!
If they produced the cables themselves, the cost would be more than double if the standards were not up to the standards of the Great Qian Empire. Capitalists were not stupid. Of course, they would buy the cheaper cables. Later on, the four consortiums directly shut down the cable production units to save money.
Fusang's cable company was also destroyed. In the end, it was completely destroyed by Hua Xia's cables. These things were ignored.
However, these Fusangpeople would never know that although the Daqian's fiber optic cables were indeed sold to Xiamu Network at 20 USD per meter, their actual production cost was only 1 USD per meter.
Yes, only 1 USD. This was because Xijiang Province was the largest rare earth production base in Hua Xia, and even the world. All kinds of precious rare earth resources were sold by the kilogram, which was much cheaper than the price in the international market.
These high-quality optical fibers were actually just adding some graphene components. There was nothing more. Therefore, in summary, the actual cost of Daqian's fiber optic cables was really pitifully low.
Xiamu's 80 billion USD broadband plan, 50 billion USD was used to buy cables, and only 120% of it, which was 2.5 billion USD, was the real cost. The remaining 47.5 billion USD was all Boss Jia's profit.
It was all pure profit!
It was a f * cking profit.
