Time waits for no one

The arrangements and appointments of personnel have been made properly, and Shirakawa Kaede proceeds to the next agenda item of the meeting.

"Finally, I would like to share some good news with you. Our first product of Shirakawa Electric, the Obsidian record player, sold 200 units in the first month!"

"Wow~" As soon as he finished speaking, Hasegawa, Yasuda, and Yamaguchi started to applaud with faces full of joy.

Although Yoshida Mako, Inoue Ken and others also raised their hands in agreement, they felt a little confused in their hearts.

It’s just 200 record players. Isn’t it an extraordinary number?

This is really an incredible number, especially for Yasuda and the others, and for Shirakawa Electric.

We must know that the original Watanabe Electric Co., Ltd. sold about 150 units per month at its peak. After Watanabe Jr. took over, the sales almost fell below 100 units.

Now that Shirakawa Electric has just taken over, it has used a new design and a new brand, which is completely equivalent to introducing a new product with no mass base to the market.

To be able to achieve sales of 200 units in the first month is already extraordinary, higher than when Watanabe Electric was operating at its best. In the eyes of Hasegawa and others, this is simply a miracle.

Bai Chuanfeng pressed his hands down to signal everyone to be quiet.

When everyone stopped applauding, he continued to raise his voice, "The price of the Obsidian record player is still 83,000 yen, but the material cost is 20% lower than the previous Blackstone record player.

Here, Bai Chuan thanks you." After saying that, Bai Chuan Feng also bowed to everyone sincerely.

Although this is the result of a team effort, without his leadership, it’s hard to say what the final result would be.

Tsk~ Although Xiaolin-san is sometimes rude, he is still very considerate.

Bai Chuanfeng didn't know which country the patent for the Walkman was in. The people below also took it for granted that such an advanced idea must have come from his father in the United States.

"The U.S. side has been checking for almost a month, but there is no news yet." Asuka Kobayashi knew that Shirakawa Kaede attached great importance to this matter, and it was rare that she did not quarrel with him.

"Oh~!"

However, despite this, Bai Chuanfeng did not dare to take it lightly.

At that time, it would be difficult for Shirakawa Electric to obtain foreign authorization, or the cost would be too high for him to bear.

While Shirakawa Kaede was talking endlessly, Kobayashi Asuka sat beside him and wrote non-stop.

The development route formulated by Shirakawa Kaede for Shirakawa Electric is very simple: survival-development-core competitiveness.

Today's meeting is, firstly, to arrange Meiji's foreign aid and introduce each other to each other, so that Shirakawa Electric can operate more coordinated and effectively in the future.

Previously, these matters were handed over to Assistant Komatsu, but now that Kobayashi has become his personal assistant, he naturally took over this matter.

This time everyone's applause was not only more enthusiastic, but also accompanied by a few cheers. Even the brothers and sisters from Meiji were a little excited.

Bai Chuanfeng frowned and thought for a while, then he put down the pen in his hand. "Abandon the work in the United States and shift all resources to Europe, focusing on patented technologies related to British, German, and Gallic chickens."

The purchasing power of 1.4 million yen is still quite sufficient today. At this time, the per capita annual consumption of RB can only reach 1 million yen.

Asuka Kobayashi nodded to express her understanding, and then immediately got up and went to make arrangements.

Along with Bai Chuanfeng's thanks, everyone still applauded. However, unlike the cheers just now, everyone looked at Bai Chuanfeng with feeling.

The time was only three months, so Shirakawa Kaede couldn't help but be nervous. In addition to internal pressure, there was also pressure from the outside.

Many media are not very optimistic about the prospects of this new machine and think its sound quality is a major problem.

But after making money from the Obsidian record player, he also changed his view.

Secondly, it is also to inform everyone of the good news and to acknowledge the efforts of the previous month.

As for taking over the respective positions later, Asuka Kobayashi will be responsible for these.

She was also born in Meiji, and she was pretty and cute, so she soon became very happy with Yoshida and others.

"Is there any news from overseas?" In the president's office, Shirakawa Kaede raised her head again and asked Kobayashi Asuka.

If the club is rich, will their benefits be less? The answer is yes.

However, there was no news for more than half a month, which made Bai Chuanfeng doubt this idea.

The emergence of the Obsidian record player was for survival, and the research and development of the Walkman was for future development and growth.

Looking at the lively scene below, Baichuan Feng was also very happy. "The fact that Baichuan Electric was able to achieve profitability in the first month is the result of everyone's joint efforts.

It should be said that there were still people who doubted the prospects of the Walkman before, such as Kazuo Yamaguchi who values ​​sound quality.

After all, President-san is President-san, and not everyone can become President-san.

The profit margin relative to the selling price has also increased from the initial 1% to 8.4%!

Many stubborn RB people still believe that vinyl is irreplaceable.

At the end of the meeting, everyone dispersed. Meiji's senior brother and sister, Shirakawa Kaede, expressed his gratitude to them one by one.

The design verification must be completed within three months, the first batch of prototypes must be obtained within the year, and it must be launched on a large scale by early next year at the latest!”

At that time, not to mention whether other competitors appeared, Sony's Walkman alone was selling well overseas and gaining popularity.

So 1.4 million is already very impressive, and this is still the first month. From now on, we just need to operate step by step and steadily, and the profits will only get higher and higher.

Not only did we successfully complete the 5% improvement target set at the beginning of the month, we even exceeded the target!"

Sony's Walkman has just been released, and the market has not yet opened up. Even the initial situation cannot be called a good one.

After all, as a Meiji student, I will definitely not have to worry about work in the future.

The entire meeting lasted two hours, and overall it was relatively smooth, with no major differences among everyone.

If you pick any one of those large group companies, the working environment will be much better than that of Shirakawa Electric.

Third, naturally it is the formulation of strategic goals for the next stage. Only when there is direction can there be motivation.

Time waits for no one, Bai Chuanfeng sighed.

It's not that he is optimistic about the Walkman now, but that he believes in Bai Chuanfeng's vision.

"In short, the next stage of the club's Walkman project still requires your full efforts.

After deducting materials, labor, operating costs and taxes, the profit of our single record player reached 7,000 yen, which is more than 8 times higher than the 830 yen of the Blackstone record player!

Whenever Bai Chuanfeng subconsciously stretches his hand to the side, a cup of iced coffee will always be pushed into his hand without fail.

The other party will definitely spend a lot of money on marketing, advertising, and celebrities.

Before Walkman becomes a trend, now is the best time for Shirakawa Electric to make efforts.

And Shirakawa Kaede is of course the focus of the strategy... Bah, of course the focus is on Yamazaki Hui.

Based on his understanding of Sony's deep pockets, if sales are not good in the first month.

200 units cost 7,000 yen, and the net profit is 1.4 million yen! Shirakawa Electric achieved profitability in the first month!

"Si Guoyi!"

When I told them about the sales volume of 200 units, they didn't feel anything. But the net profit of 1.4 million yen was much more intuitive.

The so-called per capita annual consumption includes all aspects of your food, clothing, housing, transportation, education, and medical care. The total of these has just reached 1 million yen.

Although the company is not big, Yoshida and the others did not underestimate Shirakawa Kaede.

If the United States does not have it, then it will only have Britain, Germany or Gaul, which have the most developed industries.

"Understood!" Everyone at Shirakawa Electric agreed in unison. They knew that Shirakawa Electric's next flagship product had put all the efforts of the president into it.

Coupled with the novel shape and pioneering innovation, it will definitely be loved by young people.

Privately, Bai Chuanfeng was still very polite to them. After some communication, he took his senior brothers and sisters to visit Baichuan Electric.

If Shirakawa Electric keeps going step by step, whether it can survive the wave after the bubble burst is a question.

The only consolation is that Shirakawa Electric has done a lot of work before this, and now we just have to wait for Yamazaki Hui to be in place.

In the office of the R&D department, Shirakawa Kaede rubbed her hands and walked towards Yamazaki Hui with bright eyes.

Thank you all for your support!
Chapter completed!
