"Wu Kai, are there any events recently?"
"Yes, are you going tonight?"
"I …"
Chen Yu almost spat out his water.
"What's the big deal? It's just a foot bath. Boss Chen, it's my treat."
"F * ck off, I'm asking if there are any events in the industry."
"Oh, you should have said so earlier."
Wu Kai did not blush and said, "There's an electronics industry conference next week, are you going?"
"Of course, I'm going."
In the past, Chen Yu did not participate in these conferences.
Moreover, when Huanyu Technologies focused on the Internet business, they did not participate in any events.
The reason was that Chen Yu did not like to socialize every day.
On the other hand, in the Internet business, he did not need to socialize.
He just needed to make his product well. That was enough. He did not need to worry about anything else.
However, in the field of electronic products, it was different.
After all, electronic products were not the Internet. It was a manufacturing industry and an industry.
It involved production, marketing, suppliers, logistics … and a series of other businesses.
In the Internet business, one could bury their head in the company and not care about anything else. They could make the product the best and then destroy their competitors.
However, in the industry, even if they destroyed their competitors, they still had to cooperate with them.
Huanyu Technologies could not handle the materials, components, production, logistics, and marketing all by themselves.
After reaching a deal with HTC in Beibei, Chen Yu was also thinking about how to expand his OEM business.
The Electronics Enterprise Conference this time was a good opportunity.
Chen Yu did not think too much and chose to participate.
It was different from the previous few times he participated.
In the past, Chen Yu also participated in several official conferences.
For example, the Mobile Developers Conference, the Internet Conference, and the Shencheng Electronics Enterprise Conference …
However, at that time, Huanyu Technologies was not particularly well-known and was not particularly powerful.
Therefore, even if Chen Yu participated, he did not have much influence.
However, this time was different.
When Chen Yu brought Wu Kai and his assistant Bamboo to the venue, all the big shots who were already there looked at Chen Yu.
"This is Chen Yu."
"Chen Yu from Huanyu Technologies?"
"Yes."
"Tsk tsk, Huanyu Technologies has been developing very quickly recently. It's almost overtaking us old bones."
"You're being modest. However, Huanyu Technologies has been really impressive recently. Not only did they perform well on the Internet, but they also performed well on mobile phones and MP3 players. Especially the Pear III they launched recently. It's said that it's already popular overseas. "
"Wow, it's that Pear 3 that looks like an electronic watch?"
"Yes."
"But why don't I think this thing is good? It's not very practical either."
"Our thinking is outdated. Young people's thinking is different from ours. Although the Pear 3 is not very practical, it's very trendy. Young people, regardless of whether they have money or not, want to buy one to play with. From time to time, they would pick it up to check the time. I've seen many young people do this. Look … there's a guy in front wearing a Pear 3. "
"Isn't he too vain?"
"Which young person isn't vain? Besides, it's not a matter of whether young people are vain or not. Us old bones are also vain sometimes. It's just that we show it in different ways."
Many pairs of eyes looked at Chen Yu.
Naturally, Chen Yu also noticed the gazes from various places.
Among them, there were some familiar faces, and there were also some unfamiliar faces. Chen Yu nodded at them kindly.
Then, he found his seat and prepared to sit down.
"Boss Chen, I thought you wouldn't come to this meeting."
Just as he sat down, Bubugao's Vice President Jin Zhijiang walked up to Chen Yu.
"Oh, it's Mr. Jin."
Jin Zhijiang was an old acquaintance. Chen Yu smiled and said, "I've been a little bored recently, so I came to this event. After all, I'm in this industry. If I don't come, others will say that I'm a newbie. We've been in this industry for two years, so we're not newbies anymore."
Of course, this was a joke.
Chen Yu was going to pull in business at this meeting.
Since Jin Zhijiang from Bubugao was here, Chen Yu was going to have a good chat with Jin Zhijiang about the future OEM business.
However, before Chen Yu could speak, Jin Zhijiang brought it up first.
"Boss Chen, I heard that you've reached an agreement with HTC?"
"That's true."
"That … Can you help us produce some OEM products?"
"Mr. Jin, you have your own factory in Bubugao, right?"
Chen Yu asked curiously.
Bubugao had a strong industrial chain.
They had their own R&D team, their own production factory, and maintained good relationships with major distributors.
It was because of this.
In his previous life, Bubugao developed rapidly in the mobile phone industry and created a series of brands.
Little Genius, Bubugao, Oppo, Vivo … It was because of the abundant supply that the front end was able to develop rapidly.
"Boss Chen, you know that we've always been in the MP3 business. A while ago, we were influenced by your company's Pear III and we were preparing to follow suit. However, you know the market. If we're one step behind, it'll be difficult for us to find an advantage. Pear III is too innovative. We have to build a new production line. Time is a little tight. "
"Oh …"
With this, Chen Yu understood.
Time was life.
Time was money.
When it came to business, this was not false at all.
The sooner he developed a product, the faster he could occupy the market.
The sooner he developed a product, the less money he would have to spend.
"Of course, no problem."
How could Chen Yu reject such a business that had automatically delivered itself to his door?
"Thank you so much, Boss Chen."
Jin Zhijiang quickly expressed his gratitude.
In his heart, he was impressed again.
Chen Yu's vision was much greater than theirs.
When the two companies separated, Chen Yu was not angry. Instead, he let bygones be bygones and continued to work with them.
Even if they imitated Pear MP3, Chen Yu was generous and did not pursue the matter.
If it were him, he would not be able to do that.
"Boss Chen, long time no see."
After Jin Zhijiang left, Xu Lihua, the founder of Waveguide, came over to greet Chen Yu.
"Mr. Xu, long time no see."
Chen Yu stood up and shook hands with Xu Lihua.
Although Waveguide was Huanyu Technologies' competitor, the manufacturing industry was like this.
There was cooperation in competition, and competition in cooperation.
Huanyu had a few patents in its mobile phone and paid some patent fees to Waveguide.
"Boss Chen, I know your magnanimity. I won't beat around the bush and get straight to the point. Your company's Pear III is a very innovative product. We are also very interested in MP3 players. Recently, I heard that Boss Chen's electronic foundry has expanded. Can you help us produce MP3 players? "
Many companies in the industry followed up on Pear III. Everyone had a tacit understanding.
Although they had competed with Huanyu Technologies before, they had a general understanding of Chen Yu's character.
Although Chen Yu's business methods were ruthless, he used legal business methods.
In terms of breadth of mind, Chen Yu was more generous than many people.
This also made many people in the industry admire him secretly.
This time, Xu Lihua did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point.
Of course, Xu Lihua's reason for wanting Chen Yu to produce Waveguide was different from Bubugao's.
Xu Lihua originally advocated for their own research and production.
However, after state-owned companies invested in Waveguide, Xu Lihua no longer had the final say in Waveguide.
Although it was feasible to develop and produce it themselves, it would cost a lot of money. Especially the investment in the production line. If the MP3 players could sell well, it would be fine. However, if the sales were not good, it would be a huge loss. Previously, when they competed with Huanyu Technologies for low-end mobile phones, they had suffered a loss when their production line was destroyed. This was also because they had sold their mobile phones to Huanyu Technologies at a ridiculously low price.
Once bitten by a snake, ten years shy of ropes.
Xu Lihua had the courage to rebuild the production line, but the state-owned holding company did not.
In the end, they could only look for Huanyu Technologies to produce.
