252: Chapter 251 Enterprise Management

Helping someone in need, or adding icing to the cake?

The Middle-aged man naturally knew which was better.

But the premise was that the investment had to be proportional to the returns.

There is a saying in the investment world: if the return reaches 10%, it is enough to pique an investor's interest; if the return reaches 30%, an investor can almost ignore certain risks; if the return reaches 100%, it is enough to make an investor take a gamble; and when the return reaches 300%, an investor will dare to trample on all the laws and morals in this world.

These things are not worth mentioning in the face of a 300% rate of return.

And now, the Middle-aged man saw a sufficient rate of return in Frontier Technology.

But the problem is that the opponent Frontier Technology is currently facing is a behemoth that even they have to look up to.

Although this behemoth had only revealed a sliver of its power, it was already enough to be terrifying.

The Middle-aged man wasn't afraid of losing his investment; what he feared was that his life's work might be ruined because of this.

This is not without precedent; the development of capital is inherently bloody.

After a while, the Middle-aged man said, "Wait a little longer, until the situation is a bit clearer."

The woman pursed her lips and smiled, saying nothing more.

This man was good at everything, except for being too hesitant.

But... that wasn't such a big problem, was it?

...

On the other side.

A young man with a crew cut was on the phone, explaining helplessly to the person on the other end, "I'm telling you, Boss, it's not that we aren't trying our best; it's just that Frontier Technology isn't playing by the rules. They suddenly released the zero egg on their own official platform. There's nothing I can do."

The voice on the other end of the phone was deafening.

"I don't want to hear that. I only want to see negative news about Frontier Technology. I'll give you one day. If there's still news about the zero egg release on the trending list after one day, don't even think about getting the rest of your payment!"

young man panicked, "Don't do that, Boss! I'll arrange for people to inflate the numbers right now. I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

"You'd better make me satisfied!"

The person on the other end snorted heavily and hung up.

"Boss, that big shot has a terrible temper."

A subordinate next to him said with a look of awe.

"That's why he's a big shot."

young man muttered, then stood up and clapped his hands.

"Brothers, the big shot is angry, so we need to step it up! Work hard and get Frontier Technology's news off the headlines."

"San'er, that female star from last time, what was her name? Right, Na Ying. Get the news about her cheating trending; we need to stir up some heat!"

"Look for any other potential trending topics, too. Heat them all up for me! Let's get as many as possible to blow up!"

"This is going to be a tough battle, brothers. We…"

Just as young man was impassioned, mobilizing his team, a loud crash came from the door.

young man was interrupted. He turned his head to look at the door, a curse ready on his lips: "F***…"

The next moment, he swallowed the second half of the sentence.

A group of heavily armed SWAT officers filed in.

While young man stood stunned, a SWAT officer approached him.

"Are you Zhao Shuai?"

young man nodded blankly.

"We suspect you of fabricating facts, slandering others, and disrupting social order. This is an arrest warrant. Please come with us."

young man nodded obediently, then muttered.

"Um… Officer."

young man looked around at the SWAT officers in the office and swallowed hard. "Did we… commit a capital offense?"

...

"…Currently, sales are going well. Since we mobilized the Chen Group's transport fleet, and most users are concentrated in developed coastal areas, delivery hasn't been difficult."

In the office, Liu Yemei was reporting to Wang Shuo. At this point, Liu Yemei glanced at Chen Xin, who was sitting to the side drinking a beverage. She adjusted her glasses and said, "We have released the subsequent order slots according to the plan—three batches in total, 20,000 units per batch. They have all been pre-ordered, and the funds have been fully collected."

"That's great."

Wang Shuo, sitting in the main seat, was very satisfied.

With all the funds in place, it meant Frontier Technology had brought in over 800 million yuan.

The speed of this capital recovery was terrifying; the popularity of the zero egg was evident.

There are still a lot of rich people in this world.

Wang Shuo sighed with some emotion.

"Issue a commendation for Lin Junfeng. He contributed significantly to getting the production line set up so quickly for this release."

It had to be said that Lin Junfeng's ability was outstanding. If he hadn't been constantly targeted by others, he would have developed smoothly, and it wouldn't have been Wang Shuo's turn to acquire Subspace Technology.

"Understood, I will notify him," Liu Yemei nodded. "Additionally, it's estimated that if we want to fulfill all pre-orders for the zero egg within the specified timeframe, we need at least fifteen production lines. Furthermore, our suppliers need to increase their supply."

"Hmm, that is a problem."

Wang Shuo nodded. With the funds recovered, the sword hanging over his head had finally disappeared, and he felt he now had the opportunity to really stretch his wings.

"What is currently in the shortest supply among our suppliers?"

"Molds," Liu Yemei replied. "We don't have enough molds to meet the mass production requirements for the zero egg. I've already discussed this with Zhenxing Machinery, and they've promised to continue supplying us with at least 2,000 sets of molds."

"Then there are the Chips. According to the agreement we signed with the Wanji Semiconductor Company on Taiwan Island, 60% of the first batch of ordered Chips have been delivered—specifically, the main control Chips. If we continue selling at this rate, we'll soon face a Chip shortage."

At this point, a trace of worry flashed across Liu Yemei's brow.

The zero egg didn't just use 7nm SOC Chips; its motherboard, designed by Wang Shuo himself, was extremely complex. While other Chips could be sourced domestically, the main control Chip could not be replaced and had to be imported.

Even if the Chip was designed by Wang Shuo, if no one could produce it, what was the use of mastering all the technology?

If there were no Chips, wouldn't this current bustling scene just be an Epiphyllum?

"Keep urging Wanji Company to deliver the subsequent Chips as soon as possible," Wang Shuo said calmly. "I will find a way to solve this problem soon."

"Understood."

Liu Yemei nodded.

This was the only thing that could be done for now. As for other options… if there were any, she would have pursued them long ago. Currently, apart from Wanji Semiconductor Company, no other semiconductor companies with the capacity to handle large-scale business were interested in cooperating.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be so worried.

She looked up at young man, who was smiling and focusing on his tablet, and sighed inwardly.

Hopefully, he could really find a way.

After a while, Wang Shuo, having seen enough of the idiotic netizens, looked up and saw that Liu Yemei was still standing there. He couldn't help but ask, "Sister Liu, is there anything else?"

"Yes," Liu Yemei nodded. "Mr. Wang, I hope all your plans can be communicated to me in advance in the future so that I can prepare. Take this zero egg release, for example—if you had notified me two days in advance, I could have designed a more optimized promotional plan to maximize the impact."

Wang Shuo asked in surprise, "Isn't the impact good enough as it is?"

"Uh…" Liu Yemei was momentarily stumped. A single announcement had brought 800 million in cash flow to the company; the results were indeed good.

"The results are very good, but Mr. Wang, this is non-replicable. Not every situation will turn out like this one," Liu Yemei felt a long-lost headache coming on. "We need a stable system, not decisions made on a whim."

"Is that so?"

Wang Shuo nodded thoughtfully. "Sister Liu, what you said makes a lot of sense. How about this: I'll upgrade Zero when I get back and create a management system for our company based on it. In the future, everyone will be equipped with a zero egg. Everything, including uploading and downloading documents, will need to be done through the zero egg. As for the specific methods, Sister Liu, you come up with a plan, and I'll design the program."
