Counterattack 1990

Chen Dong woke up and found himself reborn in 1990, a time when gold was everywhere. Carrying the regrets of his past life, he started by selling tea eggs...

Financial crises, oil crises, gra...

Chapter 958 What happened to the promise of being permanently free?

Zhou Huimin was still not satisfied. She pushed Chen Dong and continued, "I have already found a venue for my home theater, but the sound equipment and projection equipment are not ready yet."

Chen Dong immediately understood what she meant and deliberately asked, "So, does that mean I also need to provide you with audio equipment and projection equipment?"

Zhou Huimin revealed an understanding expression, "Longteng Electronics doesn't develop projector equipment, but I heard that the integrated circuit speaker you recently developed meets my requirements very well."

"Integrated circuit speakers don't represent the highest level of technology right now. Are you sure you want to use integrated circuit speakers as a sound player for your home theater?"

Vivian Chow nodded firmly.

“Home theaters are different from regular theaters. If it's a regular theater, upgrading the technology would inevitably require digital playback equipment. However, digital speakers are expensive to manufacture and maintain. Home theaters have a small space, so you only need one speaker system with surround sound capabilities.”

Chen Dong pursed his lips, "You really know how to save me money."

"As far as I know, your Longteng speakers are not integrated circuit speakers, but rather speakers that combine integrated circuits and digital technology, right?" Zhou Huimin questioned.

Chen Dong tacitly agreed.

Although their Dragon Audio speakers utilize integrated circuit technology, due to the high sound quality requirements of North American media companies, digital processing and signal decoding chips were also incorporated inside the speakers to reduce mechanical noise.

"The Longteng speaker hasn't been launched on a large scale in the Chinese market yet, but don't worry, I'll have the marketing department reserve some space for you. You can directly contact the marketing department when it's available."

Chen Dong has never been principled in front of Zhou Huimin.

"good."

Longteng's speaker production line was already working overtime to produce new products to meet the year-end promotions of the two major markets of Europe and America. However, at this time, they received an order to reserve 500 speakers specifically for the China region.

The engineering and technical departments in charge of the Dragon Speaker project couldn't help but roll their eyes.

The factory manager reported to his superiors that there wasn't enough manpower, but the higher-ups seemed to ignore it.

Even if the boss says they want to launch the product in the China region, they are fine with working overtime. However, the number of speakers specifically for the China region is not tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, but only 500, which is quite awkward.

They'll have to hire a manager to oversee this batch of new speakers exclusively for the China region. Isn't that just creating unnecessary trouble?

At the end of the year, the production line is already under strain.

"What does the big boss mean? Suddenly issuing such an order, adding 500 units to the China region, is that reasonable?"

"I also find it strange. There are so many people in the China region. Either we should set up a dedicated production line, or we should prioritize the European and American regions. Giving the China region only 500 units now, how much can we sell these speakers for?"

The workers erupted in discontent, and someone who knew the inside story said sarcastically, "Everyone, stop complaining. These 500 speakers aren't just for the general market in China."

Upon hearing this, everyone became interested. "What does it mean that it's not exclusively for the general market?"

The man, with a crooked eyebrow and a low voice, said, "I heard from my uncle that during the year-end meeting, the big boss's girlfriend showed up. She was so fierce that it seemed even the big boss couldn't handle her."

"What does the girlfriend have to do with this?" This sparked everyone's gossip.

The worker who knew the inside story whispered in the ears of several people, "These 500 speakers are what the big boss's girlfriend requested to be delivered to the China region."

"Otherwise, why would Longteng act so strangely? They specially supplied 500 speaker units, not to release them to the market, not to use them for advertising, and not to open any offline outlets in China. This means that these 500 speakers are used to win over his little girlfriend."

"I see."

Gossip arose one after another, and the topic gradually expanded from the speaker to other topics, from the big boss's girlfriend to the boss's mistress, and everyone from top to bottom was gossiped about.

Wang An happened to overhear these words.

Wang Anlai came to inspect the production line operation, but as soon as he entered the new production area, he saw the technicians whispering and gossiping about the big boss.

"Are you guys just bored out of your minds, or is your work too easy? Let me tell you, there's plenty of demanding work in the engineering department. If you think this production line is too easy, I'll send you there!"

"No! Mr. An, we know, we won't say anything more."

After a few jokes and banter, the matter was considered closed.

Soon after, the year-end promotion officially went live, and the Longteng speaker production line worked intensively to provide equipment to the front lines, while North American media companies heavily promoted their new product—the integrated circuit speaker.

Longteng Electronics always attracts market attention whenever it releases a new product, and this time is no exception.

This time, in particular, Longteng Electronics launched integrated circuit marketing, a technology that is almost impossible to find on the market anymore. It is unexpected that Longteng would be willing to develop such electronic products.

In today's world, both engineers and technology companies are focusing their development efforts on advanced and cutting-edge technologies.

Advanced equipment and technology have indeed given many people an extraordinary technological experience.

However, technology is updated and replaced very quickly. Some people who are unwilling to progress and have a deep affection for the times are very nostalgic for the electronic products from the time when technology was not mature.
