I have a wizarding world
#203 - Sweatshop
Inside the conference room.
As soon as Lu Feng finished speaking, the room erupted in discussion.
Dong, dong, dong!
Lu Feng gently tapped the table.
Everyone refocused their attention on him.
"As for the production plan for the New Moon phone, we only need to consider the production capacity in China."
"Then, what about overseas?" The newly appointed General Manager of the Marketing Department asked anxiously.
Lu Feng smiled as he looked at him, "Fang Zong will take care of the overseas production capacity issues."
Upon hearing this, the General Manager of the Marketing Department immediately shut his mouth.
As the founder of Yuncheng Technology, Fang Cheng was a mysterious figure to ordinary employees, and even to newly appointed senior executives like Zhong Youwei, rarely making an appearance.
Hearing Lu Feng mention Fang Cheng, Zhong Youwei naturally didn't dare to ask any further questions.
The more secrets he uncovered about the company, the more mysterious Zhong Youwei found Yuncheng Technology.
Putting aside other things for the moment, he knew that the company's flagship product, the Smart Sprite, was not developed by the company's technical department.
In other words, apart from a limited number of senior employees, no one knew where the Smart Sprite came from.
And according to the company's rules and regulations, no one dared to inquire about the matter rashly.
Didn't he see that even a senior employee like Liu Bo was suppressed by Lu Feng's aura and couldn't say a word?
As the newly appointed General Manager of the Marketing Department, Zhong Youwei hoped to make great strides in the company and didn't want to be fired for violating the rules.
Seeing that Zhong Youwei had stopped talking, Lu Feng looked around at everyone and continued:
"Does anyone have any other questions?"
Everyone shook their heads.
"Okay, then let's end here for today," Lu Feng handed the New Moon phone to Liu Bo, the head of the technical department, "Your technical department will conduct a detailed test of it and provide the test report to all departments to prepare for the phone's promotion!"
"Okay, Director Lu!" Liu Bo hurriedly responded.
"Meeting adjourned!" With that, Lu Feng stood up and strode towards the conference room door.
...
"Forgetting overtime pay, why are we still not getting paid?"
"That's right! I only received 2000 this month, and they still owe me 1400 in wages. The factory needs to provide an explanation!"
"That's right!"
"Pay wages! Pay wages! Pay wages..."
Inside an electronics factory, a group of workers wearing blue uniforms gathered together, shouting loudly.
"What's all the noise? What's all the noise? Stop shouting!" A manager wearing a suit and tie, who appeared to be a factory leader, roared through a megaphone.
Sure enough, the loud sound of the megaphone suppressed the scene, and the workers' voices gradually quieted down.
"Section Chief, you need to give everyone a fair judgment. The factory has been in arrears with wages for several months, some are underpaid, and some are not paid at all. You need to provide an explanation!"
A middle-aged worker wearing a blue uniform with the words 'Foxconn' written on his chest shouted.
"That's right!"
"Yes..."
The scene erupted in discussion again!
Seeing this, the Section Chief in the suit changed his expression and roared, "Everyone be quiet and listen to me first."
Upon hearing this, the voices on the scene gradually quieted down again.
"Apple has canceled more than 80% of our factory's orders. You all know about this. You also know how many people we have in our factory. But please believe that the difficulties are only temporary. The company is so big, there will always be cash flow issues. Please rest assured that you will not be shortchanged a single cent of your wages!" The Section Chief in the suit spoke eloquently.
"You said the same thing last month, and you're saying it again now. Who are you trying to fool?"
A young man in a blue uniform shouted loudly.
"That's right, he said the same thing last month."
"That's right!"
The Section Chief in the suit looked at the chaos below again, his forehead slightly sweating, and he couldn't help but curse the young man who had just spoken in his heart.
"What's your name?" The Section Chief pointed at the young man.
"What do you want?" The young man's expression tightened, and he said nervously.
Being singled out, the young man was still a little nervous.
"Nothing, you are now suspected of gathering a crowd to cause trouble and have been fired!"
The Section Chief stared at the young man and said coldly.
Provoked by these words, the young man's stubborn temper flared up. He quickly took off his blue uniform and threw it hard on the ground, roaring:
"If I don't want to do it, then I won't! Give me back the wages you owe me!"
"Who are you calling 'old man'?" The Section Chief also got angry.
"You!" The young man hardened his heart and shouted.
Before the words could finish, the Section Chief kicked the young man, and the two wrestled together, and the scene suddenly became a mess.
...
Since Apple phones became incompatible with Yuncheng Technology's Smart Sprite, sales of Apple phones began to decline sharply. You know, more than 90% of Apple's phones are manufactured by Foxconn.
Now that Apple phone sales have plummeted globally, the first thing that has happened is a sharp drop in Foxconn's orders.
This has put Foxconn, which has as many as one million employees, in a difficult position!
Although Foxconn has its own mobile phone brand and also has OEM orders for other brands of mobile phones, Apple mobile phones are undoubtedly Foxconn's largest customer.
Losing this customer has dealt a huge blow to Foxconn.
Putting these aside for the moment, Foxconn is also a listed company, and the resulting stock price plunge due to the reduction in orders is really the last straw. A series of setbacks have made it difficult for Foxconn to breathe, and even led to malicious incidents of wage arrears.
These setbacks made Foxconn's Group President Guo Taiming distraught.
Foxconn is a company that Guo Taiming created with his own hands. After decades of ups and downs, in his eyes, Foxconn is like his own child. Despite the outside world's slander of this sweatshop, it is undeniable that it has solved huge employment problems, as can be seen from its more than one million employees.
But now, Guo Taiming's "child" is sick, and it's seriously ill, and has already suffered serious damage. How could Guo Taiming not be angry and anxious.
Guo Taiming had cursed Yuncheng Technology more than once in his heart. It was this company's malicious competition with Apple that led to a sharp decline in Apple phone sales worldwide.
Although Yuncheng Technology has temporarily reconciled with Apple through Joseph's mediation, the lost market cannot be regained with a reconciliation.
Now the mobile phone market is so competitive. If you don't make progress, others are constantly making progress. How easy is it to regain the lost market.
The most direct consequence of the sharp decline in Apple phone sales for Foxconn is a sharp drop in orders, a large number of factory shutdowns, worker layoffs, wage arrears, and a stock price plunge!
This series of consequences was merely caused by Fang Cheng's anger.
Taipei, Foxconn Group Headquarters.
Inside the conference room.
Guo Taiming sat at the head of the conference table, holding a cigarette in his hand, not speaking, everyone was silent.
The air in the conference room was so oppressive that it felt like one couldn't breathe.
"Everyone, talk about it, what should we do?"
Guo Taiming put out the cigarette, raised his head, and looked at everyone.
