FY-01 Material Shows Its Might

"A new company, it won't be a shell company, will it? Can it meet our project needs?"

"That's a problem. A new, small company, their systems aren't complete. I'm afraid they won't even pass the audit, and it will be very difficult to bring them into the resource pool."

"I don't think those are problems. As long as they have the technology, whether it's the factory, the workers, the qualifications, or the production capacity, you can throw money at it."

"That's true, saving money is saving money. How about a few of us invest?"

"This technology is too impressive. A few of us with our small arms and legs can't handle it. Only a company of our size can get involved. I'll report this to the boss, so you don't need to worry about it."

Inside Hua Long Technology, a small discussion was underway in the project department. There were only three people present: Project Director Wu Feng, Zhongzheng client Project Manager Wang Wei, and Oupai client Project Manager Liu Liangwei.

There was only one topic of discussion: the optical material "FY-01" recommended by Zhou Feiyu.

In the morning, the three of them had witnessed the powerful performance of this material.

In the afternoon, they didn't discuss the material's performance and development issues, but instead began discussing practical applications and, more importantly, cooperation issues.

As employees, their first thought was to bring Zhou Feiyu's Fei Yang Technology into the Hua Long Technology Company's resource pool to facilitate project development.

But Wu Feng, as the Project Director and one of the core leaders of the company, had a more complex perspective. He also had to consider the company's development.

Simply purchasing Fei Yang Technology's materials was a low level of cooperation. Investing in Fei Yang Technology and jointly promoting the market to make big money was more important.

Ding dong!

Just then, Wang Wei's phone suddenly rang.

Wang Wei picked it up and saw that it was a voice message from Zhou Feiyu. He quickly clicked to convert it to text and realized that Zhou Feiyu had actually taken the high-speed train back.

"Well, he's already taken the high-speed train back to Nanjiang."

Wang Wei smiled wryly and showed the message to Wu Feng.

"Who went back to Nanjiang? Your classmate?"

Liu Liangwei immediately asked.

Wang Wei nodded and replied, "Yes, we can't talk now. If we want to talk, we'll have to send someone to find him."

Wu Feng frowned at first, but quickly relaxed, saying, "There's no rush. After the reliability test results from R&D come out, we'll figure something out."

Liu Liangwei asked, "Director Wu, regarding the Oupai client's dual-punch-hole screen project bid, should I use this material to calculate the cost and participate in the bidding?"

Wu Feng didn't hesitate and decisively said, "Use it first."

The R&D team had shown him the optical material "FY-01" in the morning, and its powerful performance had deeply shocked him. Leaving aside everything else, just the light utilization rate and thickness alone were even better than the foreign King Material, which was enough to give him strong confidence in this material.

The foreign King Material, named "King," was indeed a king. It had been around for at least thirty to forty years, but no country among the hundreds in the world had been able to replicate a material with comparable performance. Not to mention all the performance aspects, just the light utilization rate alone had not been replicated by any country, being at least 5 percentage points lower, let alone its strong and stable reliability.

This technology was undoubtedly unmatched.

And now, the light utilization rate of FY-01 actually surpassed the King Material, breaking the insurmountable barrier of 5 percentage points, and even exceeding the King Material by 1 percentage point. It was simply incredible!

It was like a peerless demon king who had been rampant for decades, and people had become accustomed to its power, even believing it to be insurmountable and only capable of being submitted to. As a result, a young man suddenly appeared and fought a great battle with the peerless demon king, his power steadily suppressing the peerless demon king. For people who were accustomed to the peerless demon king's powerful strength, the shock and the confidence it brought were unimaginable.

If it weren't for other tests that hadn't been completed, Wu Feng would have already been eager to strongly recommend it to the boss.

Why wouldn't they use it for the bidding?

Liu Liangwei agreed, "Okay, Mr. Wu."

"Be careful with confidentiality on this matter. I'll also inform the R&D department."

Finally, Wu Feng specifically reminded them.

"Understood."

Wang Wei and Liu Liangwei exchanged glances and responded in unison.

Both were intelligent and naturally understood Wu Feng's intentions.

After the meeting ended, Wu Feng left the conference room and went straight to the chairman's office. Wang Wei and Liu Liangwei only glanced at him and, with a tacit understanding, didn't discuss the topic.

As they walked, they chatted about other things. Liu Liangwei teased, "Wang Wei, you're going to get rich this time."

"That's not true, it's not my material."

Although Wang Wei said this and his expression didn't show anything, he was still calculating internally: Should I really give up such a good opportunity?

Liu Liangwei smiled and said, "If it were my classmate, I'd definitely shamelessly invest in him. You can't work for others your whole life. Starting your own business and being the boss, especially one with exclusive technology like this, that's the real deal."

Wang Wei shook his head, "If only it were that simple!"

The next day, Wang Wei continued to monitor the testing of the "FY-01" material and also paid attention to Liu Liangwei's bid for the Oupai client project.

Director Wu Feng and Liu Liangwei hadn't come in that morning, saying they had left directly from their residences for the Oupai client to save time.

Wang Wei sent a message to Zhou Feiyu, telling him the good news.

Dongwan City, Oupai client!

The bidding team, consisting of Wu Feng, Liu Liangwei, another R&D manager Xie Youming, and business director Huang Haixin, arrived early before the bid.

But as they walked into the large conference room, they immediately saw the Zhong Wei Technology team, who had also come to bid and were about to sit down. The team was led by Li Bo, Zhong Wei Technology's business director responsible for the Oupai client, project director Feng Zhongfa, and two other technical personnel.

Wu Feng knew Li Bo and Feng Zhongfa; they were colleagues and old rivals. The others basically knew each other too, as the industry wasn't that large.

The people from both companies greeted each other, smiled, and then fell silent.

Besides these two companies, several other bidding teams from Oupai DM factories also arrived one after another. They also exchanged a few simple pleasantries, and the atmosphere between them was quite good.

It wasn't until the team responsible for the Oupai client entered the large conference room that the atmosphere finally became tense.

"Welcome everyone to Oupai Company. You basically all know about today's bidding. I won't say much more. I'll ask our R&D personnel to first introduce this project. You can ask questions if you have any. Once everything is clear, then you can begin bidding."

The speaker was Xiang Jinbo, the head of procurement for the Oupai client, and he was straightforward.

Soon, a young R&D staff member walked onto the stage and began to introduce the details of the project being bid on today.

Before coming, everyone had actually already understood the details quite well, so after he finished his introduction, basically no one asked any questions.

Thus, the main course officially began, and each company started the formal bidding. The results were announced on the spot, fair and just.

"With this configuration and this price, we will definitely win the bid this time."

In the Zhong Wei Technology team, Project Director Feng Zhongfa whispered to Business Director Li Bo that he had calculated the cost and price several times and had also communicated with the head of procurement at Oupai.

Li Bo, however, glanced at Wu Feng and others from Hua Long Technology and said, "Don't be careless. I heard before that Hua Long Technology wasn't planning to bid, only sending a project manager, but now even Wu Feng has come."

Feng Zhongfa smiled and said, "It is a bit strange, but their business is even bigger than ours. They won't be able to calculate the cost down unless they do it at a loss."

Li Bo thought about it and felt that was true, and his expression immediately relaxed a lot.

If Hua Long Technology took the project at a loss, and they didn't get it, then it was no big deal.

Half an hour later, the bidding ended. The Oupai team reviewed all the documents and prices, and the head of procurement, Xiang Jinbo, announced the results on the spot.

"The winning bid is... Hua Long Technology!"

Xiang Jinbo's expression was slightly unnatural, but he still announced loudly.
