Chapter 543 Liu Hanyu: Look at your child's photo

In the Ideal Technology warehouse, mass-produced smartphones have been packaged and neatly placed in the warehouse. Zhou Jing randomly picked one from each location and prepared to take it to BJ Company for evaluation.

"Mr. Zhou, this is a partial test report from yesterday's random inspection."

When Ideal Technology's managing director and production and product manager learned that the boss had arrived, he went to the warehouse with the report that had not yet been completed.

“We must establish the concept that quality control is our reputation, and make products with the strictest quality control.”

Zhou Jing took the test report and said.

"Okay, Mr. Zhou, don't worry. How do we deal with things that are not up to standard but do not affect normal use?"

Xu Jun nodded. Although the quality control is strict, some problems are hard to say. Some machines have slight defects, but they are unqualified according to the company's quality inspection requirements. For example, there are tiny bumps on the soldering or the color is wrong after soldering, there are tiny dust particles in the camera lens, etc. These are problematic products but have no effect on their use. It is a waste to scrap such machines. The company is now making mid- and low-end machines and cannot withstand such a hassle.

"Those with defects that do not affect performance and function are stored separately, and will be put on the market or exported after the hot selling period of new products has passed and the price has been broken, so as to ensure that the first batch in China is free of defects."

Zhou Jing thought about this problem. Defective products cannot be scrapped directly. Even iPhone would not dare to do so. Quality control requires the pursuit of perfection. In fact, mass-produced products can never be perfect. Only private customization at any cost can achieve perfection. Perfection is unrealistic for most people.

There are too many domestic brands that are too inward-looking. When a new model of a brand is launched, some people will use magnifying glasses or even microscopes to evaluate it. Coupled with the secret promotion of friendly competitors, minor defects that do not affect normal use will be infinitely magnified, thus affecting the brand.

The price is not so high abroad, especially in Africa and the Middle East. Except for many developing countries in ZG, it is good enough to have one at a reasonable price.

"Row."

Xu Jun thought so too.

The company's first goal is to make a profit. Products of different grades have different markets. As for products with problems that affect normal use, they cannot be scrapped directly but must be handed over to the production technology department for repair. If they cannot be repaired, they will be dismantled for parts and recycled or sold to the second-hand market. This is an unwritten rule in the industry.

Including iPhone, the company claims that it will not use any unqualified parts, but in fact, a large number of unqualified parts flow into the second-hand market and mobile phone repair market.

After returning to the office from the warehouse, Zhou Jing and his bestie Bai prepared to hold a management meeting. After the chief financial officer was determined, the Ideal Technology management system was initially established.

CEO and Chairman Zhou Jing.

Vice Chairman Bai Xiyao.

Fang Ming, Managing Director and Marketing Manager.

Managing Director and Production Manager Xu Jun.

Zhang Ming, Director and Head of Supply Chain.

Liang Jian, Director, Chief Financial Officer and Director of International Business.

Zhang Yonghua, Director of R&D Department.

and department managers.

The meeting started at 3:30, and at 3:20 all management staff went to the meeting room one after another. Zhou Jing and Bai Xiyao arrived at the meeting room on time at 3:30.

The conference room was not very luxurious, with two rows of tables and ten seats in each row. When Zhou Jing and Bai Xiyao walked into the conference room, everyone else stood up and applauded.

"good afternoon everyone."

Zhou Jing raised his hand and walked straight to his own exclusive seat. The left side of the seat was reserved for Bai's bestie, and the right side was for Fang Ming. From the seats, it was clear that Zhou Jing was the boss of the company, Bai Xiyao was the second in command, and Fang Ming was promoted from the R&D department to executive director, and Zhang Yonghua took over Fang Ming's position as director of the R&D department.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Zhou and Mr. Bai."

"This is the first plenary meeting since Ideal Technology's organizational structure was improved. First of all, I would like to welcome Xu Jun and Liang Jian to join our big family."

Zhou Jing looked at Xu Jun and Liang Jian who had joined Ideal Technology during this period and took the lead in applauding.

The others followed suit and clapped.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhou, and thank you everyone."

Xu Jun and Liang Jian stood up to express their gratitude.

"."

“Let me clarify our company’s development philosophy once again. Everything is for technological innovation and talent. We reject corporate bureaucracy. People who delve into technology are often not good at expressing themselves and socializing. As managers, we cannot just listen to nice things. We must take the initiative to understand the contributions and needs of technical personnel. We cannot let technical personnel contribute to the company but be buried. Technical personnel must always be on the first page of the company’s credit book.”

“Simplifying management means simplifying management processes and achieving more efficient management”

After the greetings, the meeting officially began. Zhou Jing got back to the point. The first topic was to set rules for those present: a technology company should act like a technology company.

Except for the managers of the administrative department and the financial department, everyone else present was a science and engineering technician. They were deeply touched by Zhou Jing's words. As people who have been researching technology for a long time, they knew the helplessness of the chaotic and deformed management. Dealing with trivial human relationships is more tiring than developing technology.

"I believe everyone has read the second quarter financial report. The company's development speed has far exceeded my expectations, allowing the company to launch many development plans ahead of schedule. We have established many R&D teams one after another. Last month, we invested in a chip design company. My goal is not only to become a first-class company in China, but also to become a world-class company."

"The company's next task is to launch smartphones. Ideal 1 has entered mass production, and the test of Bestseller 1 has also gone smoothly. It is expected to be put into mass production by the end of the month. While the smartphones are being launched, we must speed up the improvement of after-sales service, strengthen market management, and develop overseas markets."

"The R&D department determines the future of the company. As long as there is money in my personal account, I will not let the R&D department lack money. The product department and the marketing department are the front row of the company, and the R&D department is the backing. The company's management is centered on the R&D department. The R&D department is the backbone of the company. Only when the R&D department develops good products can other staff members stand up straight and speak loudly at the product launch conference. Only then can the users of our products hold their heads high in front of users of other brands."

Zhou Jing was the only one speaking at the beginning of the meeting. After Zhou Jing finished speaking, others reported on their work and expressed their opinions.

During this meeting, Zhou Jing said almost as much as he did in the previous few months at Ideal Technology Co., Ltd. He clarified the company's management system and development model and ended the meeting. The specific work was handed over to them. Zhou Jing didn't have time to manage so many details, and it would not be in vain to spend so much money to support so many people.

Through this meeting, the senior executives of Ideal Technology who usually did not know Zhou Jing and were several years or even ten years older than Zhou Jing had more respect for him. It was the first time they witnessed Zhou Jing's maturity and management ability. Before, they only knew that Zhou Jing was very good at technology, but they did not expect that Zhou Jing was so experienced in dealing with people.

"You speak better than I sing."

Back in the office, Bai Xiyao said sincerely that Ideal Technology's management was originally a bit messy and it was unable to establish the focus and core of management. After this meeting, all aspects of Ideal Technology became clear. The company's senior executives and senior engineers seemed like a monarch and his subjects in front of Zhou Jing.

“You don’t sing well.”

Zhou Jing smiled and said.

"You are such a liar. You are the most beautiful cloud in the sky. Wouldn't it be good for me to keep you here and sing with all my heart?"

Bai Xiyao kicked Zhou Jing and sang softly.

"it is good."

Zhou Jing didn't want to listen to her bestie Bai's tuneless singing, so he said against his will.

"That's better. Let's have a barbecue tonight. Do you want to bring Liu Hanyu?"

Bai Xiyao looked at the time and it was almost time to get off work.

"Take it with you!"

Zhou Jing didn't care and took Liu Hanyu with him to make things more lively.

Bai Xiyao sent a message to Liu Hanyu.

After get off work, Bai Xiyao and Liu Hanyu went back to the dormitory to change clothes, while Zhou Jing went to the car to call Gu Jia first.

"What are you going to eat tonight?"

Gu Jia had just got off work and hadn't returned home yet.

Zhou Jing: "Barbecue." Gu Jia: "I want to eat barbecue too. I haven't had it for a long time."

Zhou Jing: "Let's eat together when I come back."

Gu Jia: "Okay, don't drink and drive, drink some fruit beer."

"I'll listen to you. Just drive carefully and we'll talk when we get back."

Teacher Gu was driving. Zhou Jing didn't say much and waited in the car for more than ten minutes. He saw Bai's girlfriend and Liu Hanyu in the rearview mirror.

After get off work, Bai Guimi changed her clothes. She wore a yellow T-shirt on the upper body and dark gray overalls on the lower body. Compared with Liu Hanyu who was wearing a skirt, Bai Guimi was more individual.

Bai's girlfriend's temperament is not suitable for wearing skirts, and Liu Hanyu has a relatively perky hip and doesn't like to wear hot pants or skirts that are too short. Both of them dress conservatively, but they both look good, and taking these two girls out on the street is something that many people envy.

"Both beauties, please get in the car."

Zhou Jing rolled down the window and said with a smile.

"Could you be more gentlemanly and come down to open the door for us?"

Bai Xiyao said from a distance.

"I'm not a gentleman." Zhou Jing looked at Liu Hanyu and said, "Isn't it hot with such a long skirt?"

"Is this still long?"

Liu Hanyu looked down at her knee-length skirt and said.

"Not even the thighs are showing."

Zhou Jing likes Liu Hanyu's figure very much. She is not slim but her butt is round and sexy.

"I want to see thighs everywhere on the street."

Bai Xiyao said something and got in the car.

"That's right, I'm not in good shape."

Liu Hanyu glanced at Zhou Jing, lifted her skirt, and sat in the back seat with Bai Xiyao.

"You have such a great figure and you are still not satisfied."

Zhou Jing looked at the car behind and started it.

"No way."

Speaking of figure, Liu Hanyu couldn't help but blush when she recalled that Zhou Jing often teased her about her fertility two years ago. Although she didn't go to that step with Zhou Jing, she was kissed many times by Zhou Jing, and he touched her in places that could and shouldn't be touched, especially her buttocks.

The more Liu Hanyu thought about it, the more she felt like crying. She had missed such a good opportunity.

"The child is about to run away, but you are still so unstable and philandering. Does Gu Jia know?"

There was no one else in the car, Bai Xiyao said mercilessly.

Zhou Jing said: "Haven't you ever heard that a man remains young until his death?"

"Let me see the photos of your children."

Although she felt bad, Liu Hanyu still wanted to see the child of her former "rumored boyfriend" and current boss.

Zhou Jing opened the photo album on his phone and handed it to the back.

"So cute, he's five months old now, can he call mom and dad?"

Although the child's mother in the photo snatched the man from Liu Hanyu, Liu Hanyu was still touched by the cute child.

"She is yelling unconsciously now. We often teach her to yell. She probably doesn't understand what mommy and daddy mean."

Zhou Jing felt more and more that Liu Hanyu had a good temper and could look after his and Gu Jia's child so calmly.

Bai Xiyao asked, "What does Zhou Jing plan to let his child do when he grows up? Inherit the family business?"

"It's too early to consider this now. Let's see what she wants to do."

Zhou Jing still hopes that his son will inherit the company. It’s not that he is reluctant to give it to his daughter, but because the business world is too complicated and he doesn’t want his daughter to be too tired. His daughter will definitely not lack money to spend and can just enjoy life.

Liu Hanyu wanted to continue looking at the photos, but was afraid that there might be privacy in Zhou Jing's album, so she stopped looking without Bai Xiyao around. She felt embarrassed in front of Bai Xiyao and exited the album. The screen of Zhou Jing's phone showed a photo of a family of three. Looking at Gu Jia in the photo, Liu Hanyu felt even worse.

Sighing inwardly, Liu Hanyu returned the phone to Zhou Jing.

Seeing Liu Hanyu's mood swings, Bai Xiyao also sighed in her heart. She and Zhou Jing have known each other for almost ten years. They played games and billiards together in high school, and started a business together in their senior year. In the end, she had to help Gu Jia remind Zhou Jing from time to time not to mess around. Love is really a matter of fate.

Zhou Jing found a barbecue restaurant with good business and found a parking space.

"So hot."

Since she couldn’t drink beer, Bai Xiyao ordered a few bottles of fruit beer.

The three of them all drank fruit beer. Ice-cold fruit beer with barbecue was barely acceptable. Zhou Jing would not break the principle of not drinking and driving, no matter whether Gu Jia was around or not.

"I will start making arrangements for the press conference next week. The venue is tentatively confirmed to be at the Big Wild Goose Pagoda."

Bai Xiyao poured fruit beer for the three of them and asked them to drink one first.

"Let's arrange it!"

Zhou Jing is already working on the PPT.

Bai Xiyao asked, "How is the progress of the wireless Bluetooth headset developed jointly with Jingyin?"

"There are no technical problems. We are optimizing the battery energy storage density and will release it together with Ideal 2 next fall."

The results of Jingyin Technology and the battery company Yuanchi Technology, which Zhou Jing invested in a few months ago, are very obvious. The smartphone battery developed by Yuanchi Technology is expected to meet the requirements of the low-end Imagine series next year. After three or four iterations of the Imagine series, it can be used in mid-to-high-end models. As long as the battery has a breakthrough in technology, research and development will go smoothly.

The unexpected popularity of Ideal Traditional Mobile Phone gave Zhou Jing a lot of room for maneuver.

The super orders for traditional mobile phones have driven the development of the domestic industrial chain. If this trend continues, the domestic industrial chain will be able to provide some basic accessories for Ideal Mobile's low-end series of mobile phones next year. In addition, Ideal Technology will make huge profits and can invest in some technology companies to develop smart phone accessories.

In addition to Jingyin Audio and Video and Yuanchi Battery, Zhou Jing has also invested in BOE in the name of Ideal Technology and jointly developed screens, invested in Xinwei to develop smartphone RF antennas, and reached investment and joint R&D relationships with many technology companies such as Yangtze Memory Technologies, Microcapacitor, and Acoustic Optical Technology.

Domestic technology companies are eager to cooperate with companies like Ideal Technology. The biggest difficulty in building an industrial chain is not technology, but the carrier. If no company is willing to adapt and purchase the developed accessories, the technology cannot be iterated, which will lead to a vicious circle and the gap with foreign technology will become increasingly larger.

After eating barbecue, Zhou Jing sent Bai’s best friend and Liu Hanyu to the company, and then went to his parents-in-law’s house.

Less than a day after returning home, Gu's mother started missing her granddaughter and asked Zhou Jing to set his phone screen to a photo of Zhou Zhou.

After staying for one night, Zhou Jing returned to Yu City the next day, Saturday. The company was getting busier and busier, and Zhou Jing could only find time to go back to Yu City to visit Yang Wenwen and her daughter once a month.
