Leveling Up With My Pet

Chapter 421 No One Trust !

?

High-ranking executives at the corporate headquarters found themselves summoned to an extraordinary meeting, its urgency shrouded in mystery. The moment the notifications chimed on their devices, their office routines took a back seat to this abrupt development. With an air of anticipation, they made their way to the designated conference room, carrying with them a swirl of speculation.

"It's become almost habitual, these last-minute meetings just as we start our day," one executive remarked, a hint of frustration in his voice. His words resonated with the others, as they nodded in agreement.

As they gathered, another executive couldn't help but muse aloud, "I wonder if something significant is afoot this time."

Speculation filled the room like an electric charge. The executives couldn't help but guess at the nature of the meeting, a mixture of curiosity and trepidation in their expressions.

"I have a feeling it's related to our mobile phone batteries," ventured a third executive, her eyes darting around the room as if seeking confirmation from her peers. "Maybe they're discussing a shift to domestic battery suppliers?"

This proposition sparked a brief but spirited exchange of ideas. As they settled into their seats in the conference room, it became evident that the prevailing theory was that the meeting revolved around the usage of domestic batteries.

Time ticked away as they waited for developments. Soon, the door swung open, and Bi Qingyun, the company's President, made his entrance, cradling an object in his hand. The attentive executives noticed right away that it was a battery, and it only served to bolster their initial suspicions that the meeting had everything to do with mobile phone batteries.

Bi Qingyun, a figure of authority and significance, took his seat at the head of the table, setting the battery carefully on the polished conference table, its presence casting a palpable aura of importance over the room.

In the ensuing silence, all eyes fixed on the President, waiting for him to unveil the purpose of this clandestine gathering.

"Ladies and gentlemen," Bi Qingyun began, his voice carrying the weight of leadership, "it's likely that many of you have already surmised that this meeting pertains to our mobile phone batteries."

The room buzzed with whispered affirmations. Executives leaned forward in their seats, eager to hear more.

One executive, known for his cautious approach, raised an important concern. "President, I believe we should approach this matter with caution. There might be adverse consequences we haven't considered."

Another executive chimed in, "I suggest we revisit negotiations with our foreign battery supplier. Perhaps we can secure a better deal that would mitigate any potential risks."

The room filled with the murmur of agreement and counterarguments, reflecting the gravity of the situation.

Bi Qingyun raised his hand, signaling for silence. The executives fell quiet, their collective attention now directed fully toward their leader.

"Allow me to clarify," Bi Qingyun continued, "our King Long mobile phones will exclusively use domestic batteries. There's no room for debate on this."

The declaration rippled through the room, leaving an unmistakable air of astonishment in its wake. Had the decision been made so abruptly? Weren't there concerns about potential backlash from consumers?

An executive, unable to suppress his skepticism, spoke up, "President, are you confident that consumers will readily embrace our phones with domestic batteries?"

Bi Qingyun responded with unwavering confidence, "Not only will they embrace them, they'll clamor for them. Our mobile phones, equipped with domestic batteries, will revolutionize the market."

He picked up the battery in his hand and waved it gently for emphasis, as if to underscore his unwavering belief in their strategy.

But doubt still lingered in the minds of many.

Undeterred, Bi Qingyun continued, "You must not underestimate this battery. It's a groundbreaking innovation developed by the Universal Enterprise Group—a graphene-aluminum battery."

This revelation ignited a collective spark of interest throughout the room. A graphene-aluminum battery could indeed be a game-changer. However, skepticism lingered, as the technology remained largely theoretical. Had Universal Enterprise Group truly overcome the technical hurdles?

Bi Qingyun pressed on, "This battery is not your run-of-the-mill lithium battery. It's a graphene-aluminum marvel."

The room hung in suspense, waiting for further elaboration.

Bi Qingyun obliged, "This remarkable battery boasts charging speeds a hundred times faster than conventional lithium batteries and a capacity over ten times greater within the same form factor."

As he described the battery's capabilities, the room descended into a hushed awe.

Bi Qingyun's assistant promptly distributed copies of the battery's test report to all attendees. As they absorbed the astonishing results, the room remained eerily quiet, punctuated only by the rustle of papers and the occasional gasp of realization.

Once the shock had subsided, the executives were unanimous in their decision. King Long mobile phones would fully transition to graphene-aluminum batteries.

Wen Hongbao, an avid technology enthusiast, stumbled upon an online article titled "The World's First Graphene-Aluminum Battery Emerges from Global Enterprise Group." Intrigued, he delved into the article and the comments section. To his disappointment, the prevailing sentiment was skepticism. Most readers dismissed it as another instance of clickbait.

Undeterred, Wen Hongbao shared the article on his social media, adding a comment expressing his fervent hope that the news was indeed authentic.

Meanwhile, online reports about graphene-aluminum batteries began to surface regularly but failed to gain significant traction. The vast majority remained skeptical of their authenticity.

Back at Universal Building, Huang Guang delivered concerning news to Liu Yong.

"Brother Yong, it appears that our claims aren't gaining traction. Even within our own $100 billion global enterprise group, skepticism runs rampant," Huang Guang lamented.

Liu Yong, the picture of determination, brushed off the concerns. "Let them doubt. We cannot afford to waver. Instead, we must accelerate our efforts to achieve industrial-scale production of graphene-aluminum batteries."

Huang Guang voiced his apprehensions regarding their mounting inventory of graphene-aluminum batteries, a resource with no immediate demand.

Liu Yong remained resolute, stating, "We are on the cusp of securing our first substantial order. Qingyun International has made the decision to use our batteries in their Golden Dragon mobile phones."

Huang Guang's face lit up with relief. Their dedication and hard work were finally paying off.

As they discussed the impending production, Liu Yong remained optimistic, asserting, "Superior products will always find their market. Once consumers experience the benefits of our batteries, they will flock to our mobile phones."

Meanwhile, at Albatron International, Bi Qingyun's concerns materialized as unfavorable public opinion began to mount. Online rumors insinuated that King Long mobile phones would exclusively feature domestic batteries.

Recognizing a hidden hand manipulating these rumors, Bi Qingyun knew they needed to tackle the growing online dissent head-on.
