250: Chapter 249 Release of Zero Egg

Failed the bid?

Wang Shuo frowned slightly.

"Tell me the details."

Failing a bid wasn't a big deal, but since this was something they had been certain to win, Wang Shuo had to know the reason.

"It's like this..."

Lin Junfeng described in detail the situation regarding his participation in the tender, focusing on the subsequent evaluation content and process. Finally, he concluded in a dull tone, "General Manager Wang, I have carefully reviewed the report they provided, and I can say with certainty that this inspection report is problematic."

Wang Shuo's brows furrowed even deeper. A tender held for military procurement had issues?

"What kind of joke is that?"

"What's the basis?"

"It's simple." Lin Junfeng stated firmly, "The tensile strength data they provided does not match our test from last night; there is a huge discrepancy."

"Did you apply for a retest?"

"We couldn't apply." Lin Junfeng's voice revealed a hint of helplessness, "According to the tender rules, if two testing agencies provide consistent data, the bid evaluation committee deems it valid and does not accept retest applications."

This was also what made Lin Junfeng the most angry. It would be one thing if the data was wrong; if only one testing agency had made a mistake, while hard to understand, it could still be classified as an error.

But with both agencies providing the same data, they were clearly just treating Lin Junfeng like a fool.

"I see." Wang Shuo nodded slightly, his tone calm, "If we weren't selected, then forget it."

After several months of training, Wang Shuo felt he had become a mature general manager. Especially after the Ning Hao incident, his understanding of things had expanded by leaps and bounds.

In this world, things are not just black and white; there are also grey areas.

To what extent these grey areas are grey depends largely on your status, the resources you possess, the circles you know, and other factors.

If it were before, hearing news that he was obviously being played for a monkey would have made him indignant and furious, but now, he felt he had gained some insight.

"Just leave it at that?"

Lin Junfeng asked in surprise, "General Manager Wang, this is a project we have prepared for a long time."

"Who said we were giving up on the project?" Wang Shuo said calmly, "Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene must still be produced, and we need to increase production lines and try our best to expand capacity."

"Alright, General Manager Wang, I will think of other ways."

Lin Junfeng couldn't help but smile bitterly. Compared to himself, Wang Shuo was the one controlling the overall situation. Since he said to let it go, he couldn't say anything more.

However, just leaving it at that, he always felt unwilling.

5000kg of tensile strength data. Although the molecular weight hadn't been measured yet, it must have already exceeded 5.5 million. Such a good product, yet it didn't receive the treatment it deserved due to some abnormal means; it was truly a pity.

Seeming to sense Lin Junfeng's disappointment, Wang Shuo comforted him, "Don't worry, as long as the product is good, we won't have to worry about selling it."

Lin Junfeng could only nod, while smiling bitterly in his heart. General Manager Wang was still too young and didn't quite understand the deceit in the marketplace. No matter how good the product was, people had to use it to know. If they didn't give you the chance to use it, what could you do?

"Besides, General Manager Lin, how is the production of zero egg going?"

Lin Junfeng momentarily cast aside his disappointment and replied, "According to your arrangements, General Manager Wang, we are still continuously increasing the zero egg production lines. As of yesterday, six zero egg production lines have been set up, and two more are currently under construction."

"The last batch of components was put into storage the night before last. Now we have sufficient raw materials and have started producing around the clock. It is estimated that if all six production lines are put into operation, the output of zero egg can reach 500 units per day. If we adopt 24-hour autonomous production, this output will double."

"As of today, the number of zero egg units we have in storage is..." Lin Junfeng checked the data on his phone slightly and continued, "One thousand units."

"Not bad."

Wang Shuo nodded with satisfaction and said, "I'll have Han Xiaoxin go over there later to upgrade the warehouse management system, so it will be more convenient to retrieve data."

More importantly, it would be more convenient for him to retrieve data, and he wouldn't need to specifically call others to ask.

"Thank you, General Manager Wang."

Lin Junfeng expressed his sincere gratitude. Products from Wang Shuo were definitely high-quality items, and the warehouse management system was no exception. If there were no surprises, this should be another intelligent upgrade.

"There is one more thing."

Wang Shuo gritted his teeth but continued, "Help me notify Song Xuezhi and the others; I need them to come to Hanzhong City in the near future."

"Song Xuezhi?"

Lin Junfeng certainly knew this name. She was one of the engineers he had hired on a whim, specifically responsible for the design and manufacturing of medical devices. Later, because the company was acquired and split up, these people had been waiting at home for notice.

"Everyone on the team?"

"Yes, everyone."

"I understand." Lin Junfeng nodded, "I will notify them right now and book tonight's flight."

"There is no need to be in such a hurry. Let them settle their family affairs and just come within three days."

Wang Shuo rubbed his gums, feeling a bit of a toothache. The sooner they arrived, the faster his money would be spent. It was better to take it slow and be more comfortable.

He only had 150 million left; it wasn't much, so he had to spend it sparingly.

After finishing the important matters, Wang Shuo comforted Lin Junfeng a few more times, then hung up the phone.

Throwing the phone on the coffee table, Wang Shuo pondered slightly.

The failure of the tender, to be honest, was not within his expectations. According to his calculations, the Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene produced by the newly adjusted production line should have a molecular weight of at least 7 million, which was already the peak under the current circumstances.

If he wanted to increase it further, it wouldn't be possible just by adjusting the production line; it would require manual intervention to adjust the molecular arrangement.

Even if Zhao Cheng's technique was a bit worse and he lacked full experience, the Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene he produced could at least maintain a molecular weight of around 6 million.

Even if such a product were placed abroad, it was debatable whether there were products of the same level. According to the current situation in the country, there shouldn't be anything with better performance than it.

Therefore, regarding Lin Junfeng's questioning of the data falsification, Wang Shuo agreed.

This guy was probably messed with again, or perhaps the people messing with him this time were the same batch of people as before.

If that was the case, what was their purpose...?

After racking his brain for a while, Wang Shuo realized that the information he currently knew was simply too little, completely insufficient to infer the other party's purpose.

"Forget it, such things should be left to professionals to worry about. Why should I worry about it?"

Feeling that he wasn't cut out for this, Wang Shuo decisively gave up on investigating.

Turning over to a comfortable position, Wang Shuo waved his hand, making a gesture.

The screen immediately displayed the official website of Frontier Technology.

Wang Shuo slid his hand through the air, and the webpage slowly scrolled with his gesture.

Suddenly, Wang Shuo stopped, pointed his finger at a certain place on the screen, curled his finger slightly, and made an expansion gesture.

The corresponding position on the screen began to zoom in.

"These people are really boring."

Having seen the content clearly, Wang Shuo let out a disdainful laugh, then fell silent for a moment.

"Zero."

"I am here, sir."

"Generate an announcement on the official website." Wang Shuo sat up, his eyes flickering: "We are starting... to sell zero egg!"

It was time... to put an end to this ridiculous farce.
