I just want to deliver express, but you insist on recruiting me?

Chapter 136 I Reserve My Opinion

Shen Xin wrote the lawsuit into her little notebook and decided to report it to President Wei as soon as she returned.

That's okay.

Feiniu used to be pretty good, but now it has fallen by the wayside.

This is not just a matter of lawsuit, it concerns Shunfeng's reputation.

Stay with me until the end.

But at the same time, Shen Xin also knew that this matter was not that simple.

As the saying goes, it takes two to tango.

Probably this is the reason.

Even if Feiniu has not infringed on any rights, it is as pure as a white lotus.

But at least Feiniu has touched upon ARD's interests in some aspects, which led to their attack.

Only by thoroughly understanding the reason can we help Feiniu.

So she looked at Wei Xiu curiously: "Boss Wei, do you have any disputes with this ARD? Something like a market dispute?"

Wei Xiu raised his head and searched carefully: "I don't think so. These are low-end drones we sell."

"Then I don't understand, what's the logic behind them suing you?"

As Wei Xiu was thinking, his brows suddenly knitted together, and he subconsciously slammed the table lightly: "Ha! Got it!"

"Boss Shen is wise. If you think about it carefully, it is indeed a market problem."

Shen Xin humbly asked for advice: "How do you say it?"

"Because we are planning to expand our market presence and enter the Middle East and Eastern Europe."

"I guess our early explorations in these two areas stimulated them."

“They might be worried that I’ll steal their cake!”

Wei Xiu analyzed it like a smart guy.

Shen Xin was standing by and suddenly realized what was going on.

Chen Chen shook his head in his heart.

wrong……

How wrong.

There is absolutely no logic in ARD suing other companies.

If anything, it's just not eating beef.

But since Wei Xiu has the wrong idea, let him develop in that way.

It also saves me from having to make up lies to cover it up.

When Shen Xin heard Wei Xiu talk about expanding the market, his thoughts returned to the report in his hand.

The proportion of Feiniu’s domestic business has been declining month by month.

The shrinking markets have all been replaced by foreign countries, and the Southeast Asia region currently has the strongest growth momentum.

This is understandable.

Even if Feiniu's products are inferior, they are still a dimensionality reduction attack when they are used in the surrounding monkey countries.

If we can keep up this momentum, we might be able to figure out a way out.

therefore.

Shen Xin analyzed with a mature business perspective.

Feiniu’s best strategy at present is to gain a foothold in Southeast Asia and consolidate the market, further eat into the market share of European and American drones, and thus become the regional leader.

but!
Wei Xiu's action was to move towards two other completely unfamiliar areas.

It can't be called a stupid move.

But it is by no means smart.

If it was his subordinates who proposed such a strategy, Shen Xin would have started scolding them long ago.

But the relationship between Feiniu and Shunfeng is very delicate.

Shen Xin is only a shareholder representative, not a professional manager, so he can only make suggestions in a tactful manner.

“Is it a bit difficult to enter the Middle East and Eastern Europe?”

"Yes! Difficult!"

Wei Xiu admitted it generously, then turned to look at Mr. Chen.

"So I think I need Mr. Chen's help."

Chen Chen stood up, took two steps, and sat down next to Wei Xiu.

The expression is a bit intriguing.

He winked at Wei Xiu from time to time.

Then ask questions.

"How exactly can I help?"

Wei Xiu could also understand the deep meaning in Mr. Chen's eyes.

What he meant was not to say everything.

So he worded it this way: "If we enter these two places, I think we must make product adjustments to suit the local markets."

"Although the technology of our current products is not very good, they have a lot of materials."

"If you don't have enough technology, you can make up for it with hardware."

“The cost is relatively high.”

Chen Chen roughly understood: "You mean to reduce costs?"

"Yes, I think these two places are mainly for toy drones and low-cost agricultural machines."

"Oh...makes sense..."

Chen Chen folded his arms and nodded slowly.

The batch of planes that Feiniu sold to the Koreans before, although their technology was not very good, were also large machines.

The main function is used for surveying and mapping.

The sticks were bought for reconnaissance purposes.

Purchasing drones in peaceful areas can only be used for this purpose.

But if it's the Middle East and Eastern Europe...

There is no need for any investigation.

When selling drones in a powder keg area, cheapness and durability are the key.

have to say.

Wei Xiu is indeed a good product manager.

Chen Chen could also understand what kind of help Wei Xiu wanted from him.

It is nothing more than technical support for cost reduction.

So Chen Chen blurted out: "If you want to reduce costs, start with the materials."

"Our cheapest machines don't even use engineering plastics. They use ordinary plastics. The materials have been reduced to the lowest grade."

Chen Chen waved his hand: "Not low enough, open it up a bit."

"Using plastic is a waste, and you have to make a separate mold."

"I mean, just use corrugated paper."

Wei Xiu was still thinking after listening, and Shen Xin could no longer sit still.

Judging from Chen Chen's attitude, he should be concentrating on talking about technical matters.

But the words that came out of his mouth...

It seemed that they were not serious. She didn't understand.

"Corrugated paper? The paper box used for express delivery?"

"Yes, this is Mr. Shen's professional field. There are many kinds of corrugated paper."

Shen Xin nodded: "Yes, there are many kinds, three-layer, five-layer, seven-layer, and high-hardness cardboard for engineering, but using paper to make airplanes is a bit outrageous, isn't it?"

Chen Chen said seriously: "In fact, paper is the most suitable material for making airplanes."

“It’s highly malleable, easy to cut, and most importantly, light and aerodynamic.”

“It’s the perfect choice for cheap drone material.”

Shen Xin nodded: "I understand the reason, but it is not durable."

Hear this.

Chen Chen turned around and looked at Wei Xiu.

The two of them have a great understanding of each other.

durable?

This thing is only used once, who cares whether it lasts?

Shen Xin still had a million questions in her mind: "I'm not an expert in technology or materials, so I won't say much."

"What matters is."

"Your market positioning... is a bit biased."

"Let's take the Middle East for example. Most children don't have enough food to eat, so who has time to play with toys?"

Wei Xiu felt that Director Shen was being a little cute.

She really couldn't hear anything at all.

In this case, Wei Xiu could only explain with a smile: "So we have to reduce costs and sell cheaper drones."

"Uh... I'll reserve my opinion."

Chen Chen asked Cao Zihua to sit closer and analyzed the feasibility of building a drone with cardboard one by one.

Cao Zihua is not that cute.

In no time, I understood the boss's meaning and instantly understood everything.

A toy machine, right?
simple.

too easy.

If you only fly it once, and don't recycle or maintain it.

The cost of this thing can be reduced to a bargain price.

Just have hands.

He drew a sketch casually.

The triangular wings are similar in style to the paper airplanes we folded when we were children.

After all, this is an aerodynamic layout derived from flight tests involving at least hundreds of millions of people, so there is absolutely no problem with it.

The tail of the aircraft is equipped with a simple propeller engine, which only provides power during cruising.

The aircraft's takeoff power is provided by an external rocket booster, similar to the Sky Monkey.

Wei Xiu was shocked when he looked at Cao Zihua's picture.

They say there are many hidden talents in the Morning Shield headquarters, and it is true.

Director Cao's casual drawing is more exquisite and scientific than the results of several months' work by the R&D directors under his command.

So he immediately took advantage of the situation.

"There's definitely no problem with the toy machine, so what do Mr. Chen and Mr. Cao think about the agricultural machine?"

Chen Chen and Cao Zihua understood immediately.

But Shen Xin on the side had a confused look on her face, still immersed in the logic of the toy machine just now.

So Chen Chen chose his words carefully: "Well...for agricultural machinery, the product positioning is a little different."

"Indeed, one of them is mainly used to attack and cannot come back, and the other is mainly used to investigate and attack at the same time." Cao Zihua also touched his chin and thought.

Shen Xin grasped the key point: "Investigation and strike at the same time?"

Wei Xiu nodded: "Yes, the all-in-one machine for insect detection and pesticide spraying is the mainstream in agricultural machinery now."

"The machine's built-in sensors can be used to determine the location of pests, and then pesticides can be placed at targeted locations."

"Most of these machines are launched vertically, so they are basically rotary-wing drones."

Chen Chen followed up the conversation and analyzed: "If we want to inspect and hit the integrated pesticide machine, there are many parts involved, especially the sensors."

Cao Zihua immediately got into the state: "The optimal solution is definitely phased array radar, but the cost is too high."

"Well, considering the farming level of our fellow villagers in the Middle East, I think infrared will be enough." Chen Chen added.

"The boss is wise. Infrared is cheap and can basically deal with most pests and diseases."

Chen Chen continued, "As for the load, of course the heavier the better. The pesticides in the Middle East may not be pure, so you need to bring a large amount of pesticides."

After exchanging opinions, the two felt that the problem was not serious.

But he couldn't come up with a plan for Wei Xiu immediately.

So Chen Chen said, "Pesticide machine, wait for me to come back and I will give you a detailed plan."

"Technically there are no major problems, they are all very simple."

"But the key to reducing costs for this product is not in technology, but in the production line."

"If you want to do it, you must increase production capacity."

Wei Xiu is a smart man and he understands everything immediately.

But Shen Xin was completely confused.

Feiniu’s goal is to expand the market, not to seize the market.

Shouldn't the safest approach be to produce in small batches first and give it a try?

How come the production capacity was increased right away?

She looked at Chen Chen in confusion: "You're betting big right from the start, aren't you afraid of losing money?"

Chen Chen said calmly: "Director Shen may not know the logic of the manufacturing industry."

"For any industrial product, the higher the output, the lower the cost."

"If the output is infinite, the production cost will approach zero infinitely."

Shen Xin hesitated: "I understand the truth..."

It is true that high output means low cost.

But we have to take the market into consideration.

If it is domestic, there is no problem in increasing production, as we can always find a market to pay for the production capacity.

But we are talking about a place where no one lives.

"I won't talk about Eastern Europe for now. It's true that the land there is fertile and the agricultural demand is not bad."

"But the Middle East..."

"It's hard to grow a dogtail grass in that place. Are you sure you can sell so many pesticide machines?"

Cao Zihua and Wei Xiu nodded in unison.

Domestic drone production is perhaps the highest.

But the consumption of drones by fellow Middle Easterners is definitely among the highest.

Chen Chen assured Shen Xin: "You don't understand the desire of our fellow countrymen in the Middle East for insecticides and sterilization. We can definitely sell them."

"Okay...but I still reserve my opinion."
