"Chairman Lu is right. With so many companies joining forces and us having the home advantage, we might very well win this battle!"

Chen Yongyun was the first to stand up and respond. If it weren't for his status and etiquette, he would have even wanted to shout "Chairman Lu is awesome!"

To directly challenge Apple, and even to dethrone it, is something no one has dared to say in the past decade or so.

"Chairman Lu, what do you suggest we do?"

Xu Xiangjun was more composed. It is true that declaring war on Apple requires great courage, but courage alone is not enough; one must also have the corresponding strength.

Upon hearing this, Lu Feng coughed lightly, but did not immediately reveal that he had obtained support from above.

This is his trump card, but before using it, he needs to confirm how much support these people can give him.

"Chairman Xu, that's a good question. My so-called plan is actually very simple: to have a head-on battle with Apple!"

"Doesn't it like to lower prices? Then we'll lower ours too. I want to see who has the last laugh!"

Lu Feng stood up, his gaze sharp, and said, word by word.

This speech contained no flowery language or inspiring tone, but everyone present could hear the unwavering determination behind Lu Feng's words.

"A price war?"

Liu Hongchang muttered something to himself, his expression somewhat gloomy.

Their prices are already lower than Apple's, so if they were to go head-to-head with Apple, they would be the ones who fail.

Even if this is China, even if there are many allies, it won't work.

“Chairman Lu, I admit that price wars are the best way to demonstrate our fighting spirit, and we can use them. But we can’t put all our hopes on price wars; we must have other methods!”

Chen Yongyun suddenly spoke, looking at Lu Feng with a hint of expectation:

"Does Chairman Lu have any further plans?"

However, Lu Feng shook his head directly at his expectations.

"No, this is the only plan I've come up with right now. Are you all willing to help me carry it out?"

His gaze fell upon the crowd:

"Of course, this matter is ultimately due to Tenglong, and I will certainly not let you suffer these losses, as long as you are willing to fight against Apple with me."

"I promise that for the next year, Tenglong's chips will be sold to you at cost price!"

"Gentlemen, I have shown you my sincerity. Now, think carefully about your choice."

After saying this, Lu Feng sat back down in his seat and didn't say another word.

Liu Hongchang and others were caught in a brief dilemma.

There's a very real phenomenon in the business world: lowering prices is acceptable, but raising prices can cause customer dissatisfaction.

They can afford to lower prices slightly now because of Apple, but what if Apple disappears? What kind of excuse will they have to raise prices back up?

"Chairman Lu, this matter involves the interests of the entire group, and I need to apply to the board of directors!"

"But don't worry, Weihua Group will definitely stand by your side!"

Xu Xiangjun was the first to stand up. After making a promise to Lu Feng, who was sitting in the main seat, he left the conference room to make a phone call.

"Chairman Lu, I also need to discuss this with the board of directors!"

Excuse me for now.

Liu Hongchang and the others also left, and soon only the president of Heimi and Lei Zheng of Dami remained in the conference room.

"Chairman Lu, why don't you tell them about the plan from above? If you do, they definitely won't hesitate."

Zhang Lifei, the president of Heimi, asked with some confusion.

The business world is very realistic. If you want to get others to invest or do something together, you have to put up your own bargaining chips first.

Let others see what benefits they can gain from this, so that they will be more likely to agree to your alliance.

Otherwise, if people can't see any benefit, why would they take the risk with you?

In Zhang Lifei's view, since Lu Feng wanted to win over these groups to fight against Apple, he should have revealed the matter of the national subsidy so that Liu Hongchang and others could see Lu Feng's power.

That way, those people will do their best to help.

Instead of hiding it like this now.

However, no sooner had he finished asking than Lei Zheng reprimanded him:

"Old Zhang, shut up. How could you or I possibly understand Chairman Lu's profound plans?"

"The reason why Chairman Lu did not reveal the intervention from above was to test how much support these people would give him."

"If we reveal the fact that the higher-ups have intervened, Liu Hongchang and others will definitely increase their support. In that case, we won't be able to see through people's intentions."

Lei Zheng slowly began to speak, explaining the reasons behind it.

"I see........"

"Chairman Lu is far-sighted; I was too narrow-minded."

A blush crept across Zhang Lifei's face as he said somewhat awkwardly.

"It's alright. I thought about this for a long time before I came up with it. It's normal that you can't figure it out right away."

Lu Feng waved his hand, offering a way out.

"Crack!"

Just then, the conference room door was pushed open, and Xu Xiangjun and the others came in after finishing their phone calls.

"Well, everyone, is there any good news?"

Lu Feng looked at them and asked with a smile.

"Chairman Lu, I just spoke with Chairman Ren. Weihua Group is willing to give up 50% of its net profit."

Xu Xiangjun was still the first to answer.

Just now, he contacted Ren Zhongguo, the founder of Weihua Group. After listening to these words, Ren Zhongguo only said, "If Chairman Lu is willing to fight, then Weihua will fight to the end."

"Hi~!"

Lei Zheng, who was sitting to the side, gasped.

Fifty percent—that's the same figure set by the rice group. This move by Weihua can only be described as crazy.

"Good, Chairman Xu, I knew I hadn't misjudged you. Rest assured, I've seen everything the Weihua Group has done today. Once we get through this difficult time, I will personally come to thank you!"

Lu Feng nodded in satisfaction, his voice rising a few decibels.

"Please excuse us, Chairman Lu. Compared to everything you have done, what Weihua Group has done is nothing. If anyone should be thanking you, it should be us thanking you."

"You have demonstrated the backbone of the Chinese business community."

Xu Xiangjun stood up and responded solemnly.

With Xu Xiangjun taking the lead, Liu Hongchang and the others were not to be outdone, and they all announced the amounts they had agreed to.

OOPP is willing to give up 50% of its profits!

"The same applies to VVII!"

"........."

The crowd spoke up one after another, and the numbers they gave satisfied Lu Feng.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I see your sincerity and your patriotism."

"With such determination, Apple alone is no match for us!"

As he spoke, he glanced at Lei Zheng, who immediately understood and pulled out a document.

"Everyone, I have a big surprise for you!"

Lu Feng held up the folder in his hand.
