Chapter 178
"What do you think of this Mr. Lin?"
Bai Bai Jie asked.
"He seems very good; he doesn't appear to have any airs, though that Assistant Li is a bit..."
Tang Tang Chuyu said.
"Hehe, is it that she seems a bit hostile?" Bai Bai Jie asked with a smile.
"Yes, exactly!"
"That's quite normal; after all, the former president's secretary was precisely that Assistant Li.
It's just that recently the company expanded, so she was promoted, while you and I have taken over the work of attending to Mr. Lin that she used to handle...."
Bai Bai Jie said.
"But even so, she shouldn't be hostile toward me; isn't a promotion a good thing?!"
Tang Tang Chuyu didn't understand.
"A promotion is certainly good, but some people surely have other ideas!"
Bai Bai Jie said with a smile.
"Other ideas?" Tang Tang Chuyu still didn't understand.
However, at that moment someone shouted:
"Secretary Bai, Vice President Wang from the Production Department is asking if the documents you just received have been copied yet?!"
"I'll get back to work first; we can continue this conversation when I return!"
Bai Bai Jie stood up and left the secretarial office.
Coincidentally, Li Li Xueying happened to walk over at that very moment.
She glanced at Bai Bai Jie, the wariness in her eyes far exceeding what she had shown toward Tang Tang Chuyu just earlier.
This was the woman she considered to be no simple character.
Radiating an aura of maturity, although in terms of figure and looks,
Li Li Xueying was confident she could surpass the other, yet that seductive charm possessed by her counterpart was something she truly could not match.
Perhaps in a few years, Li Li Xueying could become like her.
But for now, she was still somewhat inexperienced.
"Assistant Li!" Bai Bai Jie called out to Li Li Xueying, whose rank was higher than her own.
"Secretary Bai, busy at work?"
Li Li Xueying asked.
"Yes, I've copied a set of documents that need to be delivered to the Finance Department!"
Bai Bai Jie said.
"Mm, then you'd better go, otherwise Old Zhao from the Finance Department will lose his temper!"
Li Li Xueying said in the tone of someone experienced.
"Mm, Manager Zhao is indeed a bit strict, but he treats people well enough; I don't think he'll lose his temper with me!"
Bai Bai Jie replied calmly.
Both women were smiling,
yet anyone could sense that the atmosphere between them was slightly off.
"Very well, then I won't disturb Secretary Bai's work any longer!"
Having said this, Li Li Xueying departed.
Bai Bai Jie watched her retreating figure and smiled faintly.
In fact, the fact that the entire Secretarial Department had recruited two beautiful female secretaries was known throughout the whole company.
As the boss, Lin Yi naturally would not be unaware of it.
Although initially he had very much wanted to question the HR manager,
the manager had replied that it was Mr. Yang's decision.
After reviewing the resumes of the two new secretaries,
Lin Yi found himself with nothing more to say;
surely he couldn't dismiss them simply because they were beautiful, could he?
Wouldn't that make him insane?
For Lin Yi, as long as it didn't affect the company's operations, anything was acceptable.
Additionally, it could instill a sense of crisis in Li Li Xueying.
That was also quite good.
Furthermore, as Fengyi Technology moved into its new factory premises,
hiring a large number of new employees and installing over a dozen production lines, the company's production capacity exhibited explosive growth.
From the original monthly output of 500,000 mobile phone batteries,
it had now reached a monthly output of 6 million units, while for 18650 batteries, monthly production hit 8 million cells.
In terms of profit, March was expected to surpass one billion.
This was still under conditions where new employees were unfamiliar with procedures and training was inadequate.
According to CEO Yang Chen's calculations, this figure could increase by another 50% in April.
Creating a single-month net profit of 1.5 billion and an annual net profit of 18 billion, nearly 3 billion US dollars.
Yet in 2015, Alibaba's entire annual profit was only 3.9 billion US dollars.
What kind of concept was this?
If Alibaba's 2015 valuation of $180 billion is used as a benchmark,
Fengyi Technology, should it go public, would be worth at least $150 billion.
Of course, this is merely a rough estimate.
Going public requires considering factors such as the company's prospects and profit stability.
Besides, Lin Yi had never intended to take the company public.
(PS: For this new book, I beg for flowers, tips, and review votes; your support is the author's motivation!)
However, to be honest, Fengyi Technology's profits still exceeded Lin Yi's expectations.
Of course, part of these excess profits came from the military hardware he sold,
which was then converted into company profits by purchasing raw materials.
But even so,
Fengyi Technology's profit level surpassed that of the vast majority of battery manufacturing companies.
However, in 2015, the total scale of Long Country's battery industry was 234 billion Hua coins.
Fengyi Technology held approximately a 9% market share.
This was a rare and valuable achievement for a company established only a few months ago.
Especially since Fengyi Technology controlled a share of the highly profitable high-end lithium battery market.
This inevitably made other battery manufacturers across the country extremely envious.
Of course, Fengyi Technology's ability to achieve such results was inseparable from mobile phone manufacturers like Huawei, Lei Lei Xiaomi, and OPPO.
It also relied on the support of various small appliance factories and battery assembly plants nationwide.
Otherwise, Fengyi Technology could not have attained such accomplishments.
Additionally, regarding the Super Power battery series,
the company was applying for Well-Known Trademark status and qualification as a National Exempt-Inspection Product.
On this day, since attending the Pengcheng Outstanding Figures Exchange Meeting last time,
Wang Lei, the elusive number one young master of Pengcheng whom one sees the head but not the tail, actually came directly to Fengyi Technology.
Since the other party had never contacted him, Lin Yi had almost forgotten about this person.
It was not until Secretary Wang visited a few days ago that he remembered Young Master Wang from that day.
Yet unexpectedly, this individual arrived at Fengyi Technology's new headquarters bringing some people with him.
Wang Lei glanced at Lin Yi's president's office and said with a smile:
"Not bad; it's no worse than my old man's office!"
