Working Seriously, Is It Really That Amazing!

"I agree with Du Yu on this."

Wu Feng, as the project leader, agreed with Du Yu's opinion.

From a global perspective, if a material is only applied in a single field, it's quite narrow. It neither fully utilizes the material's potential nor leverages its own proactive capabilities.

There are too many fields that require optical materials. As a leader in the mobile phone ODM industry, Hua Long Technology has not only focused on the mobile phone industry over the years but has also actively expanded into other display industries, such as smart wearable displays, automotive displays, laptop displays, color TV displays, electricity meter and water meter displays, and so on.

Du Yu's idea was consistent with his own.

In areas outside of mobile phone displays, the application of the FY-01 material could be fully expanded.

Therefore, it is also very necessary to achieve reliability of 500 hours or even 1000 hours.

It's important to know that as fast-moving electronic products, mobile phones are updated every two years, or even every six months to a year. Consumers' requirements for mobile phone displays are actually not very high.

If it breaks after using it for a while, they just assume they accidentally broke it somewhere and either buy a new one or make do with the current one.

Conversely, those inconspicuous products that you might think have low requirements and are low-end actually have higher reliability requirements.

Take electricity meters and water meters, for example. These are standards promoted by the State Grid and State Water Affairs. They are used in inconspicuous corners but are in very core and crucial positions, often required to function for ten or eight years without issues. If a slight problem occurs after ten or eight years, they will still come to you with the product to claim compensation. Unless it's an extraordinary company, they simply cannot afford to play this game.

Materials engineer Zhai Zhigang listened to his leaders. With the two of them speaking one after the other, he quickly responded, "Okay, I will continue to arrange the experiments. The laboratory will issue a formal report then."

Wang Wei said with a relaxed smile, "Zhai Gong, please have the laboratory issue a 100-hour report to me first. I need to send it to Zhong Zheng Company for them to see and put their minds at ease. You don't know, lately, I've been telling them that we want to use the FY-01 material for their Dual Punch-Hole Screen, and they've been hounding me about it. I'm almost driven crazy."

Zhai Zhigang nodded again, "Okay."

Du Yu chuckled, "Haha, if it were me, I'd be hounding you too."

"Wang Wei has been quite busy lately."

A teasing smile also appeared on Wu Feng's face, but he still offered comfort, "Zhong Zheng Company still recognizes the reports from our Hua Long Technology laboratory. With this report, I believe they won't bother you anymore. However, you still need to prepare the necessary documents, and also remind your classmate, including environmental and certification documents. I estimate Zhong Zheng Company will definitely ask you to provide these."

Wang Wei nodded and replied, "Okay, I've been prepared for a long time. My classmate is an old hand in the materials industry and knows about these things. Before coming to Peng City, he also sent a sample of the material to a certification company for environmental certification."

He understood what Wu Feng said and was prepared, so he answered without hesitation.

Laboratory certification is crucial. Many companies don't even have a laboratory, and even if they do, most of the experiments they conduct are not recognized by customers due to issues like substandard equipment and environment, or unqualified company systems and personnel.

There are even instances of leaders interfering or using connections to tamper with experimental results, leading to experiments being done but having no practical significance.

As the undisputed domestic leader in the mobile phone industry and the undisputed leader in the global communications industry, Zhong Zheng Company always follows national and international standards when it comes to laboratories. Their supplier audits also include this item; only experimental results from laboratories certified by them are recognized, otherwise, they don't count.

Standards, standards. The vast majority of domestic enterprises use standards when it's beneficial and change them when it's not, not taking them seriously. This leads to the vast majority of high-quality products being exported and low-quality products being used domestically.

Only a limited number of companies strictly adhere to standards, both domestic and international, which is why they produce high-quality products, gain market recognition, and quickly rise to become leaders. For example, Zhong Zheng Company's mobile phone division.

These things have reasons; they are not powerful without cause, nor is it just about having many patents or investing a lot of capital. It's about doing practical things, doing real things, and doing things according to standards.

If you look at Zhong Zheng Company's mobile phones, is the technology really a big step ahead of others? Not necessarily.

Doing things seriously is easy to say, but it can be said to be harder than climbing to heaven. Anyone who does things seriously and doesn't take shortcuts will basically succeed.

As for environmental certifications and the like, there's even less to say. They must comply with domestic and international standards. These are not unreasonable or deliberately difficult; they are genuinely related to every consumer.

At this point, the powerful performance of FY-01 completely conquered them. Wu Feng's confidence in bidding for the Oupai project and using the FY-01 material on a larger scale subsequently increased to one hundred percent.

"It's time to talk to the boss about investing in this material. I guess only Hua Long Technology has this idea, right?"

Wu Feng was contemplating matters beyond the project, but he didn't forget to ask Wang Wei about the 6.6-inch Dual Punch-Hole Screen project currently underway at Zhong Zheng Company: "What's the progress now?"

Wang Wei had a clear idea. After organizing his thoughts, he said, "For the sample part, most of the materials have arrived, only the chips, glass, and motherboard are missing. We expect all materials to be here by tomorrow. For the small-batch trial production, I'm still communicating with Zhong Zheng Company. We expect to have results and a material preparation plan by Thursday, and a rough trial production schedule by Friday."

Wu Feng did a quick calculation and frowned, saying, "That's a tight schedule. It's almost the end of March now. Didn't they say they were rushing to launch for JD 618? Will they make it in time?"

Mobile phones are typically updated twice a year. Although Zhong Zheng Company is short on chips, they have maintained this rhythm.

New product launches in the first half of the year are basically concentrated around June 18th, coinciding with JD 618.

However, the fastest development cycle for a mobile phone is at least half a year. A project starting in March should, according to the plan, be launched for the Double 11 shopping festival in the second half of the year.

Given this, Wu Feng naturally had doubts about the progress.

Wang Wei smiled helplessly, "They said they can make it. This is their regular project, just a simplified version. Many materials are from before."

Wu Feng was relieved, but also a bit speechless, "Alright, there's nothing we can do. It's because Zhong Zheng is short on chips."

After confirming the experimental results, Wu Feng left first.

After leaving the Research and Development Department, he went to the Chairman's office.

The Chairman of Hua Long Technology is named Hua Long. He is the founding boss and still manages the entire Hua Long Technology, including personally managing the Research and Development Center.

The Project Department is subordinate to the Research and Development Center and is on the same level as the Research and Development Department.

Although Wu Feng's rank is Project Director, which is slightly lower than senior leaders like other Vice Presidents and Executive Directors, he is indeed the boss's trusted confidant.

"Boss, the FY-01 material I reported to you before has undergone 100 hours of experiments. Currently, its performance is completely equivalent to, or even surpasses, King Material. I suggest we can start contacting the other party now. I believe there is still great potential in the optical materials market..."

Upon entering the office, Wu Feng immediately reported.

"Is it really that impressive?"

Hua Long smiled and, while asking, motioned for him to sit down, "Sit down and talk."

Wu Feng nodded and looked at him seriously, "It's really that impressive!"
