Super Invincible Battleship
Chapter 747

Chapter 747: Chapter 316 Dream Assistant_3 Chapter 747: Chapter 316 Dream Assistant_3 Automated production workshops, paired with “Dream” smart controls, and plenty of raw materials supply, brought the production capacity of the super high-energy batteries to 5 million units per day, which added up to 1.825 billion units a year. However, Yan Fei wouldn't release all the capacities at once, because if he did, the market would most definitely be flooded with super high-energy batteries, inevitably leading to a devaluation. Therefore, when introducing the production capacity to the public, Yan Fei would only announce a tenth of the actual capacity, with the intention of employing hunger marketing tactics to create the illusion that super high-energy batteries were scarce commodities, thus securing an absolutely advantageous position for himself.

As expected, after listening to Yan Fei's introduction to the production capacity of the super high-energy batteries, all the executives present started to grow anxious. They had confirmed that if their smartphones could utilize the super high-energy batteries, their smartphones would immediately be elevated to premium status. With an improved grade, not only could they raise the sales price, but they could also enhance the product image. But what would be the cost to secure a larger supply of Dream Technology's super high-energy batteries?

Considering the production capacity Yan Fei just mentioned, producing 200,000 batteries a day accounted for a monthly total of just 6 million units, and an annual total of 72 million units. Even if the production were to double after two months, yielding only 12 million units a month, it would still total only 144 million units a year. Judging by the expressions on many of his peers' faces, they were definitely coveting the super high-energy batteries. If he didn't stockpile enough super high-energy batteries, he might very well face a shortage…

Yan Fei noted the expressions of the executives around him and offered no further reaction, but continued, “To obtain the usage rights for our super high-energy batteries, and access to our batteries themselves, you must meet several conditions we have set.”

Everyone perked up; the main event of the day had finally arrived, determining whether they would be able to secure the super high-energy batteries. Some executives were confident, while others had no assurance, uncertain if they could meet Yan Fei's conditions.

Yan Fei spoke, “The first condition is that there will be no objections to the price we set for our batteries, and payment is required before delivery.”

An executive surnamed Li immediately responded, “Mr. Yan Fei, our company has no objections to the price of your high-energy batteries and is willing to pay in advance before receiving the goods.”

The other executives also caught on and chimed in, “Our company also has no issue with the price of the batteries and is willing to pay in advance.”

Yan Fei nodded and said, “Good to hear there are no objections. Now onto the second condition, which is that the super high-energy batteries you receive from us can only be for your own use and must not be resold for profit.”

This condition from Yan Fei was to prevent the super high-energy batteries from being disseminated by these manufacturers, which could allow enterprises opposing Dream Technology to gain access to the technology, hence failing Yan Fei's efforts to block them. For instance, foreign manufacturers would be unable to get their hands on the super high-energy batteries in the short term, and those who had initially distanced themselves from Yan Fei would not be able to get them from Dream Island.

It's worth noting that even if Yan Fei set a high price for the super high-energy batteries, there would inevitably be more demand than supply once they were officially on the market. If someone were to resell the batteries, their profits could be higher than those earned from manufacturing smartphones. Yan Fei needed to close off this potentiality now, or he could face significant problems in the future.

The more pragmatic smart manufacturers' executives were savvy and understood Yan Fei's concerns; they had no objections to this rule. Knowing that the initial production quantity of super high-energy batteries wouldn't be substantial, they may not get much themselves, and they needed these revolutionary batteries to propel their companies ahead; how could they possibly consider reselling them?

However, not all the manufacturing executives present were committed to honest industry; they were making smartphones primarily for a quick profit. Therefore, upon discovering the super high-energy batteries from Dream Island, they immediately thought of the possibility of reselling, allowing them to play the middleman and potentially make more money than from manufacturing smartphones.

Yan Fei had anticipated all this and skillfully dashed the hopes of those executives who were constantly looking for a fast way to get rich with just one condition.

Faced with Yan Fei's second condition, the majority of the manufacturing executives expressed their support, but this time a few of them remained silent, not uttering a word.

Yan Fei paid attention to those few silent executives and proceeded, “The third condition is that you must install our Dream Technology's 'Dream Assistant' software on the smartphones you produce.”
