Meanwhile, at this moment, the Guangzhou Regulatory Bureau...

Lin Ziyan and Minister Shen of the Regulatory Department were having tea in their office.

The two had a very pleasant conversation, discussing the future development of the electrical appliance industry and chatting about everyday life.

Minister Shen and Lin Ziyan had never met, but they knew people in each other's lives.

“Every time I talk to my father, he praises you and another student in front of me. Now I’ve finally met you in person.” Minister Shen smiled, his eye wrinkles becoming more prominent.

Lin Ziyan smiled faintly, "Professor Shen is exaggerating too much, don't take it seriously."

Fangjie, completely bewildered, looked at the chubby girl next to her with a questioning gaze: "Do you know him?"

"He's Professor Shen's eldest son," the chubby girl whispered.

She had only seen the photos before, and this was the first time she had seen him in person.

Minister Shen said, “The person in charge of S Electric Appliances will be here in a while. I have seen the time when you applied for the technology patent. It is very close to theirs, just in different places. It will be a little difficult for you to sue for technology plagiarism.”

"But it's basically impossible for them to sue you, because strictly speaking, your technology is an upgraded version."

Lin Ziyan nodded. If she hadn't been prepared, Hairun Electric would definitely have been accused of plagiarizing technology.

When Minister Shen received the report, he only invited a few of them over privately and did not alert other brands.

This way, you neither offend the people at S Electric Appliances nor cause Hairun to be criticized.

Lin Ziyan was wary of S Appliances sending the invitation to Hairun.

Hairun defeated S Appliances overseas with refrigerators, and they must want to retaliate with the same product category.

S Electric Appliances probably didn't expect that Hairun would break through the technological barriers first and surpass them.

In the field of refrigerator refrigeration, S Appliances has always been a leader.

The people at S Group haven't realized what's happening yet; they think the relevant departments in Guangzhou will side with them.

But do the upper echelons of Guangzhou really have no objections to S Electric Appliances? It practically monopolizes the electrical appliance industry in Guangzhou.

The current leaders in Guangzhou are simply using S Appliances as a whetstone and don't want to switch for the time being.

Competition is the best driving force for the development of an industry.

"Does Hairun intend to continue focusing on overseas markets?" Minister Shen looked at Lin Ziyan with suspicion.

The domestic market is huge, and now various foreign appliance brands want to get a piece of the pie.

However, Hairun went against the grain, leaving many business owners in the same industry puzzled by their thinking.

"We will focus on overseas markets for the next few years," Lin Ziyan said casually.

It's no secret that Hairun is focusing on overseas markets.

Since it's not a secret, she doesn't need to hide it.

If Hairun were to shift its focus to the domestic market at this point, many smaller brands would not survive.

Hairun can produce products cheaper than S Electric and is willing to use domestic parts. With reduced costs, the retail price will also decrease accordingly.

“Minister Shen, it’s not suitable for Hairun to focus on the mid-to-high-end market in China right now.” Lin Ziyan was willing to explain further to him.

Minister Shen was puzzled. Even S Electric was willing to move its production here, so why wasn't it suitable?

Lin Ziyan said, "After seeing this data, you should be able to understand."

Hairun must accumulate wealth and persist in research and development as soon as possible before other electrical appliance groups react, in order to usher in its own development.

Otherwise, once capital focuses its attention on Hairun, it may be besieged before Hairun can even develop.

Currently, the technological blockade in the home appliance industry is not too severe.

If Hairun wants to bide its time and keep a low profile, it needs to let other electronics giants know that it has no intention of competing with them for the huge domestic market.

Having operated overseas for many years, they didn't believe Hairun could capture much of the market.

Most executives in the electronics industry probably thought that Hairun was able to take over the electronics market in H country because of its low prices, or even just because of luck.

"Are these data up-to-date?" Minister Shen looked at her in surprise.

The ratio of revenue to R&D expenditure.

Currently, all the appliance brands in Guangzhou combined probably don't have as many as Hairun alone.

What does this mean?

Minister Shen gripped the document tightly, finally understanding why her father always praised her.

The vision and plans for the next decade have been finalized.

"The data just came out at the beginning of this month, so it's the latest of course," Lin Ziyan said calmly.

Minister Shen, "..."

Knock, knock,

"Minister, Mr. Han from S Group has arrived." The assistant said, then stepped aside.

Han Renji walked into the office and saw the teacup on the table. A dark glint flashed in his eyes.

It seems that, as the assistant inquired, Hairun had indeed applied for the patent first.

"President Han, it's just in time for you to come..." Minister Shen said solemnly.

"This is the evidence presented by Hairun Electric Appliances. Take a look and see if there's anything wrong with it," Minister Shen continued.

Han Renji nodded, opened the document and read it quickly, his heart filled with shock but his expression remained unchanged.

Hairun's technology looks like an upgraded version of S Electric's...

With the evidence presented, it's virtually impossible for him to use this to tarnish the Hairun brand.

"Mr. Han, it's been a long time." Lin Ziyan let him look her over, her eyes smiling.

Han Renji felt a lump of resentment stuck in his throat, making it hard for him to breathe.

He simply nodded to Lin Ziyan, then put down the document, a smile playing on his lips.

"We apologize that Hairun did not disclose any related patents."

Lin Ziyan's smile faded slightly, and she gave Han Renji a meaningful look.

Han Renji felt uneasy under her gaze, and his smile froze.

"Since it's a misunderstanding, there's no need to say anything more. I hope we won't make a big deal out of this again in the future." Minister Shen nodded with a smile, thinking to himself, "The people from S Electric Appliances are really good at holding back."
