Chapter 183: Heavy Traffic

~9 min read 1,709 words

The role of multi-functional emergency radios in this hurricane in the United States has been vividly reflected.

When a group of overseas countries and regions listed emergency radios as a must-have material list for families, and even Japan, where earthquakes occur frequently, required emergency radios to be equipped in homes, schools, hotels, and other venues, the country also began to attach importance to this product. Emergency management departments in various provinces began to purchase Dolphin radios one after another.

But because of the price, the price of 1,200 yuan for a Dolphin radio is equivalent to two months' salary for most domestic families. Such a price is somewhat difficult to afford.

Therefore, most of the domestic purchases of Dolphin radios are emergency management departments, and individual purchases are very few.

But even if it is few, the orders purchased by a group of domestic provinces and cities combined have exceeded 100,000 units, coupled with the soaring orders overseas, the Dolphin radio is now in short supply. As long as it is produced, it is immediately taken away. Now this thing is hard currency in the United States.

"Help to load these Dolphin radios quickly. They must be flown away today. Everyone has a hard work fee of 50 US dollars!"

At the Hanxi Provincial Capital Airport, a man with golden hair and blue eyes, speaking with an awkward accent, said to a group of stevedores.

As he spoke, Santis picked up a phone again and dialed a number, "100,000 Dolphin radios, I will send them away by special plane today. Five days later, I will come over again, and I hope you can prepare another 200,000 Dolphin radios for me!"

Santis called the sales manager of Feiyan Technology. He is the boss of the company in the United States that supplies emergency radios to the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the affected Louisiana and other states.

The cost for Santis to purchase a Dolphin radio from Feiyan Technology is 150 US dollars, but the price he sold to the Federal Emergency Management Agency is 550 US dollars. Even so, he is a "conscience price". He didn't open his mouth because of his uncle who is a congressman on Capitol Hill.

That is, the 100,000 units transported from Hanxi back to the United States this time, Santis can net 400 US dollars per unit, and 100,000 units is 40 million US dollars!

Of course, this business can only be obtained by people like Santis who have relationships on Capitol Hill and Louisiana. If it were Feiyan Technology, no matter how low the price was, it would not be able to get the radio order from the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

This flight was a plane chartered by Santis to fly over. Although the price was not cheap, compared to the 40 million US dollars in revenue, it was nothing.

However, after returning to the United States, this 40 million is not swallowed by Santis alone. The bulk was taken away by his congressman uncle on Capitol Hill and several old gentlemen on Capitol Hill, and some big figures in Louisiana also had to take away a part, but the final amount in Santis's hands could still exceed 3 or 4 million US dollars!

The key is that this is only one order. It is visible to the naked eye that the Dolphin radio is sought after in the United States now. As long as he takes the machines back, he doesn't have to worry about selling them at all.

As for Santis, is the price of the Dolphin radio supplied to the Federal Emergency Management Agency a bit high? Santis is not panicked at all. His eating is considered good.

Like the several material supply companies that supply food, water, and tents to the states affected by the hurricane, the price is outrageous. Santis only raised the purchase price by three or four times, and those material companies raised the price by ten times.

Anyway, these are paid for by the federal treasury and state treasury, and then distributed to the people in Louisiana for free. When ordinary people discover the price of materials, it will be a few years later. At that time, Santis's company is estimated to have been deregistered, and he doesn't care about any influence at all.

Moreover, this matter may not be found out. Federal experts have estimated that the loss caused by this hurricane has exceeded 200 billion US dollars!

What is this concept? No matter how many bad accounts there are, they can be pushed to the hurricane. Anyway, when the time comes, there will be no proof of death, and no one can find out clearly.

Santis jumped on the plane, put his palm on his mouth and printed it, and threw it towards Hanxi in front of him. He loves this land, and loves it deeply. Coming here once is tens of millions of US dollars. Santis feels that if he comes a few more times this year, his net worth is estimated to rise by more than ten times!

The plane soared into the sky. After Santis left, several chartered overseas planes landed at the airport. A group of foreigners came down from the plane.

These people are of different ages and skin colors, and their languages are different, including English, Spanish, German, etc., but their purposes are the same. They are all rushing to Pingyang. Like Santis, they are here to transport Dolphin radios!

Outside the Dongling High-Tech Electronic Industrial Park in Pingyang, the trucks queuing to pick up the goods lined up in a long dragon, extending for several kilometers. These trucks are not only pulling Feiyan A10 and Feiyan Dolphin radios, but also Shenzhou phones, as well as electronic pet machine products OEM for Bandai, Japan. Together, these appeared in the scene of countless large trucks queuing to move goods in front of the Dongling High-Tech Electronic Industrial Park.

The production department is working overtime day and night, and the Feiyan technical department has also waited for the first batch of bonuses.

"The staff of the technical department will be promoted by 15% to 21% starting today, and a bonus of 30,000 will be issued. In addition, R&D personnel with important contributions will receive an additional reward, and year-end bonuses and dividends will be issued this year!"

Fu Cheng, the head of the Feiyan Technology Technical Department, said to the group of people in the technical department. When engineer Jiang Shoucheng heard this, his face couldn't help but show joy. He had joined Feiyan Technology for less than a year, but the salary he received was equivalent to the sum of his salary in the past few years, so how could he not be motivated.

Whether it is Jiang Shoucheng or other Feiyan engineers, they are now full of energy and want to develop another project. After all, who wants to dislike getting more bonuses?!

Looking at Jiang Shoucheng and others, Li Dongling nodded and then said, "The mini radio project still needs to continue to be developed and upgraded. In the future, several radio products will be launched every year. This is one of the most important industries for Feiyan Technology in the future!"

"But besides that..."

"Car radios and car audio equipment also need to be developed as soon as possible. Feiyan must develop a new generation of car radios and DVD car audio equipment as soon as possible!"

"DVD car audio equipment?!"

Hearing Li Dongling's words, Fu Cheng was stunned. Yao Luoying, who was originally looking at the Feiyan sales report for the new week, couldn't help but look up at Li Dongling.

But foreign car giants are different. Over the years, technology has matured continuously, and car radios and car audio equipment have developed for several years. It is not so easy for Feiyan to replace them.

But Yao Luoying looked at Li Dongling. She felt that Li Dongling dared to let Feiyan Technology enter this line, and there must be a backup plan. From the mini radio project, it is enough to see how Li Dongling's vision is!

"What Feiyan Technology wants to do is to develop a new generation of car DVD audio equipment. It can not only play music, but also provide navigation for cars in the future!"

Car CDs certainly have a lot of advantages. Even 20 years later, if you compare sound quality, not many can compare to it. But no matter how good it is, there is one bad point, that is, it is too expensive, and it is too delicate, and it is easy to have problems. CD discs are also outrageously expensive.

Previously, Yao Zhengru and a group of Pingyang municipal government personnel heard Li Dongling let Feiyan Technology enter the car radio and car audio equipment field, and they were all hesitant.

"Car audio equipment has now entered the CD era. It has replaced cassette tapes and tape players, but the expensive price of CD players and discs also makes it impossible to be completely popularized!"

This is partly because Li Dongling does not allow Feiyan Technology to expand the radio production line, but also because in terms of technology, foreign countries have developed for several years.

Li Dongling said to Fu Cheng and others, whether it is car CD or car DVD, sooner or later it will be replaced, which is an indisputable fact. But, that is 10 or 20 years later!

The domestic automobile industry is indeed lagging behind foreign automobile giants, especially automobile interiors and accessories, which are still in the era of being able to run. A group of domestic automobile brands, whether it is air conditioning, audio, adjustable seats, power windows, etc., have not appeared at all. Some cars even want to save shock absorbers. If you take a long-distance car, people will be scattered.

Modifying a better car CD audio equipment costs tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands. Except for music enthusiasts, not many people will toss like this.

In contrast, car DVD may not be so outstanding, but it is sturdy and durable, DVD discs are also cheap, and it can provide navigation. This determines that car DVD equipment is easier to popularize than car CD.
