Chapter 28 If you can't solve the X-fiber, just get rid of the X-fiber holder!
North America.
DuPont Group Headquarters.
In the Smart Conference Room, President Doyle has not arrived yet, and the atmosphere on the scene is relatively relaxed.
"In fact, the Japanese are much worse than us. The emergence of x2-type warm fibers has been hit hard by the Japanese chemical fiber groups, such as Asahi Kasei, Mitsubishi Chemical, and Toray. They are all big players in the field of warm fibers."
"That's true, it's still unpleasant. We, who are cooperating with 3m, had the ability to challenge the Japan Chemical Fiber Group, but was disturbed by the Chinese. Well, all the plans are over."
"Damn, those damn Chinese people have completely changed the pattern of clothing and chemical fiber fields overnight. We are facing losses of up to hundreds of millions of dollars. As for Japan, they will at least lose ten times of ours! All of this is all blamed on those Chinese people!"
The group's senior executives and think tanks were talking, pointing their fingers at the opposite side of the Pacific Ocean. They gloat about Japan's losses, gritted their teeth at the sudden rise of China, and their words were extremely hated and vicious.
"Mr. President!"
At this time, Doyle finally arrived late, and his face looked ugly because he was held accountable by several major shareholders of the company.
"This special meeting is to study and respond to new challenges from China. If you have any opinions, you can raise them now." Doyle said directly.
Everyone looked at each other, and then some people proposed to strengthen R&D, and some people suggested reducing prices and costs. Although the product performance cannot beat Kunlun Company's x series, it can be used to fight at low prices.
After all, Kunlun Company is extremely small in scale and has very limited funds. If the pressure is applied through price, Chinese people will be forced to fall into financial difficulties. At that time, Gaoyuan may be forced to sell its patent rights.
Hearing this, the company's senior executives showed a look of greed in their eyes. The performance of the x-type fiber is unprecedented.
If any company obtains this patent, it will undoubtedly be equivalent to obtaining strategic nuclear weapons that swept the world, which will bring devastating blows to its competitors and completely change the pattern of the entire industry.
"It is because Kunlun Company is still very weak now that this plan can be successful." A senior DuPont Group staff member said: "If Kunlun Company makes enough profits through x-fiber next year or the year after, then we will want to force it out through capital, and it will be not that easy."
At this time, another company executive said: "Please don't forget that the dilemma of Kunlun Company is not just a problem of capital, they are also facing production dilemma."
"From the current market feedback, x-series fibers have a broad prospect, but Kunlun Company itself does not have the production capacity. Chaoda Chemical Fiber Company, which manufactures fiber products for them, is a private enterprise and has a far-reaching strength."
"There is no doubt that even if Chaoda Company tries its best, it will not be able to solve such a large market demand. If you look for a second OEM, first of all, the OEM must have idle production capacity, and secondly, special technical transformation is required, which is not achieved overnight."
"Anyway, according to my judgment, although x2 fiber is good, it will face serious shortage of production capacity before next year."
"In other words, the current Kunlun Company has the dual pressure of capital and production capacity, which is the best time for us to take the opportunity to defeat them!"
After hearing this, everyone nodded and realized the hidden worries behind Kunlun Company's glory. After all, compared with those giant companies, Gaoyuan undoubtedly lacks foundation. Even the start-up funds of the x-fiber project rely on bank loans.
President Doyle was about to say something to make a final decision for today's meeting.
At this moment, a female secretary with a blonde hair walked up to him and whispered a few words in the president's ear.
Doyle was slightly stunned at first, then smiled strangely and said, "It's so impatient. The latest news is that a few hours ago, the Japanese colleagues had already taken action."
"Mitsubishi Chemical, Toyo String, Tori, Asahi Kasei, Fuji String, Unikiko..." Doyle read out a long list of the names of large Japanese chemical fiber companies, and then shrugged his shoulders and said: "They have also adjusted the price of warm fiber products to 1,000 US dollars per ton, and are preparing to use low-price dumping to squeeze out the yet-to-market x2 fibers."
Suddenly, the conference room exclaimed, the price of one thousand dollars per ton is absolutely crazy, and it is close to or even lower than the production costs of each company.
Before this, the general price of warm fibers in each company was around 5,000 US dollars, and this time the price cut reached an astonishing 80%, which was a huge investment.
"Sure enough, not only did we see the weaknesses of Kunlun Company, but also the cunning Japanese."
"The only question now is, what should we do?"
President Doyle frowned and thought for a moment, then stretched his eyebrows and said, "No matter what, let's kill the troublemakers in this industry first. Even in the end, Kunlun's patented technology did not fall into our hands, it would be better than looking at the faces of a group of Chinese people."
Everyone nodded and agreed to the president's judgment.
As different ideologies and different civilizations, it is difficult for the East and the West to coexist.
Since the x-series fiber cannot be solved, then solve the holder of the x-series fiber!
"Notify the sales department and immediately formulate a new price list to be consistent with our Japanese counterparts!" President Doyle said in a deep voice.
...
Early in the morning, news came from the largest materials forum in China that from Europe and the United States to Japan and South Korea, major global warm fiber suppliers suddenly cut prices and promotions significantly, with unprecedented efforts.
"Can you believe it? Tori, Asahi Kasei, 3m, these giants have increased the factory price of warm fiber by 80%! The wholesale prices of most products on the market are close to 1,000 US dollars!"
"It's so crazy! This is an unprecedented promotional intensity in my 20 years of experience!"
"I'm going to his. Is this a promotion? It's obviously a low-price dump, so I have to run Kunlun Company to death in one breath!"
"I have to say that these first-class manufacturers are too ruthless. Although their product performance is not as good as the X series, its price is low and the supply is guaranteed."
"It is obviously aimed at Kunlun Company's weakness. As a newly emerging small factory, Kunlun has a worrying production capacity. Although their x2 type warm fibers are powerful, they are out of stock on the market after all."
"Downstream manufacturers can't wait that long. Major clothing factories are eager to launch new autumn and winter models. Since the x2-type warm fiber has not been launched in batches, major Japanese manufacturers have taken the initiative to lower the supply price. If I were a downstream manufacturer, I would definitely choose to cooperate with Japan this winter. When next year, Kunlun Company will straighten out the production and increase its output, it will not be too late to switch to x-series fibers."
"The upstairs is the right answer. I am from the downstream manufacturer. Just now, Toray Group called us personally to inform us of the price reduction promotion. Our boss has decided to use Japanese goods first this winter, and the orders have been placed now."
"Actually, we don't want to use Kunlun Company's goods, but unfortunately they are too small to even supply problems and cannot be compared with global manufacturers."
"The key is the price. The prices of Japanese and European and American goods are so low, which is equivalent to a 20% discount. Who can withstand such a big temptation?"
It was less than ten o'clock in the morning, and the forum was already full of noise.
But no matter how quarrels are, people in the industry unanimously believe that the danger is imminent.
Chapter completed!
