Lu Feng waved his hand and said, "No need, let's start the meeting!"
"You...you didn't get enough rest?" Liu Cheng, being an experienced man, said, "It's not that urgent. Just stay home and spend a few more days with your wife. Did you not sleep all night?"
Lu Feng looked at him and said, "When did you become so gossipy? Let's start the meeting!"
"Okay, please go to your office and rest for a bit. The meeting room will be ready soon."
Lu Feng drank several cups of strong tea, glanced at the company's internal personnel list, and soon the financial statements were delivered. Of the 15 million, 6 million had already been spent on equipment, and monthly expenses were kept at around 500,000, so everything was considered stable.
At 10 o'clock, Lu Feng entered the conference room, and everyone stood up and applauded to welcome him. Lu Feng walked to his seat, sat down, and gestured with his hand, saying, "Let's start the meeting. Introduce the personnel, financial situation, cooperative partners, and research and development achievements one by one."
"Currently, we have 475 employees, with a core R&D team of 389 people, including 75 top-notch engineers. The company currently has 9.7 million yuan in funds, has built its own laboratory, and is cooperating with many research institutions, mainly state-owned enterprise research labs."
"This money is definitely enough for this year, and by the end of the year, we will be able to come up with our own patented technology, a higher screen refresh rate, a better signal resolution motherboard, and technology that can catch up with top domestic manufacturers. We have also followed up on many technologies such as color, light and shadow fluctuation, screen flicker, and voltage protection."
"There is a significant gap between us and foreign companies because the technological barriers are too high. I had a meeting with them a few days ago. We cannot surpass them in terms of technology for traditional televisions. Recently, we noticed that the Japan Electronics Technology Conference was held, and Sharp launched LCD technology."
LCD?
Lu Feng raised an eyebrow. That's just an LCD TV.
"You already have LCDs?"
"LCD technology has been around for a long time. Sharp developed it in the early 1970s, but the technology was not very mature. Recently, there has been a major breakthrough, which is very technological. I have read the reports that future TVs will be very thin. As long as the materials and technology keep up, everything will be fine."
"I think we should focus on traditional TVs, but the specific technology research and development should shift to LCD, quickly accumulate patented technologies, and achieve market monopoly."
Lu Feng nodded in agreement, finding it feasible. The current Weipuda still uses technology from a few years ago, which, to put it bluntly, means low configuration and high price. It mainly relies on marketing, targeting specific groups of people.
It's somewhat similar to OPPO and vivo in later generations!
"Then contact the technical team there. We can send some people to investigate and learn. Form a group, make a few trips, and first, stick the words 'high-end technology' on our foreheads so that we can promote it domestically. Also, we need to pay attention to talent cultivation and cooperate with some universities in China to prevent talent from flowing abroad and then spending a lot of money to recruit them," Lu Feng instructed.
"Now the country is advocating independent employment. I've seen some documents saying that the practice of assigning jobs has been gradually abolished in various places. We assign jobs to them, sign employment contracts, and internal management must be good. There should be healthy competition. We shouldn't be too nice and try to maintain a harmonious atmosphere."
“There needs to be competition within the R&D team. A dozen days ago, I held a meeting with the factory to delegate authority and funding. I know many people have this problem with this kind of slacking off. Everyone wants to be happy, but what happens in the end? The company suffers.”
“Research and development is all about being ahead of the curve. A technological breakthrough needs to be shared among multiple teams. Whoever succeeds first becomes the leader, and the one who fails can leave,” Lu Feng said, looking around.
The room fell silent. Even Liu Cheng felt an unprecedented pressure. Since joining Jiafeng, the pressure was a hundred times greater than in an ordinary state-owned enterprise. Under this model, the most brutal competition would definitely emerge.
"Let me introduce the product!"
"Hello Mr. Lu, I am Zhao, the R&D manager for product number 047-32. Next, I will introduce our latest product: a 29-inch large-screen color TV..."
The technology patents all come from Panda. They certainly won't give you the latest technology. Currently, most color TVs on the market use third-generation technology, while Jiafeng Electronics only has second-generation or second-and-a-half-generation technology!
This is what amazes the industry; only Lu Feng has managed to sell old technology more successfully than new technology.
