Volume 7 Chapter 32 - Three Matters
It was June in the blink of an eye.
The heat from the first month of summer spread across the continent. All the markets of the various countries were filled with demand for the various summer household magic machines.
In the past years, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s household magic machine department would receive large orders from various countries. They would be prepared two months in advance to welcome the peak sales during the summer period.
This year was no exception.
In just June, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce household magic machine department that was separated into the “Frestech Household Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce” received many orders for Magic Fans, Magic Refrigerators, Magic Freezers……and all kinds of household magic machines. The total surpassed a hundred thousand and the orders reached an amount of over two million gold coins.
Adding in the large number of orders they received last month which had a price of over three million gold coins, it was estimated that the Frestech Household Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce would set a new high this year, breaking through sales of ten million gold coins.
Compared to last summer where their total over four months of summer was seven million and three hundred thousand, this Frestech Household Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce’s sales had greatly increased this year.
However, there were three things that happened after June came which made all the people in the Frestech Household Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce unable to feel any happiness.
The first thing was that there was an accident that happened with the Frestech Magic Fan in the eastern province of the Candra Empire.
In the shipment that went to the Candra Empire’s eastern province last month, there were a bunch of them that had their covers fall off because of loose screws.
The most serious thing was that it wasn’t just the cover that came loose. There were even some fan blades that came loose, so when the high speed fan blades came off, many people were injured.
When this matter happened, it was covered by the «Candra Times» and most of the major newspapers in the Candra Empire, instantly shocking the entire continent.
Before this, although there had been issues with the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s magic machines before, they were normal issues and had happened rarely.
Compared to the household magic machines of other companies, the Frestech Brand magic machine had always been the representative of high performance and high quality.
But this time, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s Magic Fan had caused such a large accident, which was the first time in history.
When this matter was reported, most people didn’t believe it right away.
Because the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s magic machines had always had a stable position in the minds of people, so people didn’t believe that such a thing could happen.
But with the details of the «Candra Times» and the other major newspapers, these people had to believe it.
Moreover, the Frestech Household Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce had announced that this incident had happened. They didn’t deny it and stated it had happened.
But while the Frestech Household Magic Machine Company did admit to this happening, they also stated that all the Frestech Brand household magic machines were strictly inspected to ensure that such a thing wouldn’t happen, so the large amount of failed products was from something else. The Frestech Household Magic Chamber of Commerce was going to investigate with the Candra Empire government to confirm this reason.
Moreover, the Frestech Household Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce had stated that no matter what the reason was, the Frestech Household Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce would take responsibility for this incident. They would be paying compensation to all families that had been involved in an accident from buying their products.
When this statement was sent, it caused countless people to praise them.
Before this, there wasn’t a single company like the Frestech Household Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce, taking such serious responsibility for products that they had already sold.
Since they had already bought them, the problems that happened were their own problems. This was the attitude that almost all the companies on the continent had.
This time the Frestech Household Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce’s method had opened a new precedent on the Sines Continent.
Because of this statement, the people who started to mistrust the Frestech Brand household magic machines from this accident began to trust the Frestech Brand household magic machines even more.
The second matter wasn’t just related to their products, but rather the technology in the products.
Before each summer, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s household magic machine department would release some news about household magic machines. They would talk about how there would be certain breakthroughs with the Frestech Brand household magic machines or new uses for them.
For example, during May of this year, the newly formed Frestech Household Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce had made an announcement in many major newspapers and large scale Magic Illusion Projectors in cities. The Frestech Chamber of Commerce had made a breakthrough with the Magic Air Conditioner, adding in a brand new “timed use function” to it.
This function would allow the user to set the time the Magic Air Conditioner was one. When the time came, it would automatically shut off and stop operating.
This function was without a doubt very popular because the Magic Air Conditioners consumed a lot of magic power. Moreover, it didn’t help decrease the temperature even if it was on the entire time. So if there was a time setting function, they wouldn’t need to get up every night to turn it off.
After the Frestech Household Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce announced this, all the newspapers had praised this. They stated that the Frestech Chamber of Commerce was worthy of being the lead company in the magic machine industry, always developing new technology that drove the development of the magic machine industry.
The chairman Xu Yi had always stressed that technology was the most important thing in the magic machine industry. The Frestech Chamber of Commerce under his lead had kept demonstrating this, so the Frestech Chamber of Commerce had great prospects for future development.
Everyone had thought that this summer would be the same and the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s products would monopolize the household magic machine market. They would continue dominating all the other brands with their performance, quality, and technology.
However, once June came, the situation had changed.
On the third day of June, there was a household magic machine company in the Lampuri Kingdom that specialized in producing Magic Freezers that announced that they had made a breakthrough with the freezer technology. They could increase the freezing efficiency of the Magic Freezer by up to 20% and they could decrease the temperature even further, allowing the food items stored inside to be frozen even more widely which would increase the freezing effect.
This was something that had surprised everyone.
Because before this, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce had released the household magic machine technology to everyone, so most of the companies on the continent focused on producing household magic machines.
But these companies only used the technology the Frestech Chamber of Commerce provided, so they could only follow the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s footsteps, doing everything they could to copy the Frestech Brand.
Even if there were innovations, they were only innovations to the basic structure.
There hadn’t been a single innovation when it came to the technology.
Now there was a company from the Lampuri Kingdom that had increased the freezing efficiency and lowered the temperature, which meant that they had a deep grasp of the core technology of the Magic Freezer, so they could make a product that surpassed the Frestech Brand Magic Freezer when it came to performance.
In the fifteen years the Frestech Chamber of Commerce had been established, this was the first time another magic machine company had surpassed the Frestech Chamber of Commerce in technology, so naturally it attracted the attention of countless people.
Chairman Xu had always stated that he hoped that other companies would start investing in developing magic machine related technology, jointly developing magic machine technology. Now that there was a company that had made advancements in technology, how would he react?
However, Xu Yi didn’t react to this at all. The Frestech Household Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce had made a special statement to congratulate this company.
But while congratulating them, the Frestech Household Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce had also stated that they hoped that this company would be careful using this technology because it would require a large amount of testing to use any technology. Otherwise, it was likely there would be problems.
The Frestech Household Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce had stated that if this company had any problems with the technology, they could contact the Frestech Household Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce at any time. The Frestech Household Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce would be willing to provide technical support and develop this technology together.
After this, in just three days, on the sixth of June, a company from the Rudson Kingdom also announced a breakthrough. They stated that they had made a breakthrough with the Magic Water Heater.
Their Magic Water Heater had a newly developed cyclic thermodynamic system that would maintain the heat of the water that entered the tub. The tub wouldn’t get too cold after leaving it for a while and there was no need to heat it up again.
This was without a doubt a very convenient system because it solved the biggest problem for people who liked to stay in their baths.
This technology was something that the Frestech Brand Magic Water Heater didn’t have.
Then after another day, a company from the Lampuri Kingdom announced that after a long period of development, they had made a breakthrough with the Magic Stove.
Their newly developed Magic Stove would let you adjust the power of the flames and it could have two different heat sources at the same time. This means that you can use the Magic Stove to cook two dishes at the same time.
There was no doubt that would save a lot of time and greatly increase the effectiveness of cooking.
This technology was also something the Frestech Brand Magic Stove didn’t have.
In less than a week, there were three companies that announced new technology that the Frestech Brand household magic machines didn’t have. People even thought that the technological superiority that the Frestech Chamber of Commerce always had over other magic machine companies, did they no longer have it anymore?
However, compared to this, the third matter attracted everyone’s attention the most.
