Daily Intelligence: Forced to Save the Beautiful President at the Beginning

The screen simultaneously played footage of the Sensor production line and the transport of Photon Chips. Zhang Fan continued: ”Regarding inventory, our current core component stock is enough to last 20 days. But with the addition of our independently produced Sensors, the soon-to-arrive Photon Chips, and the replacement chips supplied by Huawei HiSilicon, we will not only avoid stopping production but also return to full capacity within a month. The pessimism of the Western media is merely their wishful thinking.”

His gaze became firm: ”I promise you all that the company will never lay off employees because of the supply chain blockade, nor will we let any employee lose their job. On the contrary, our independent supply chain needs more talent. Next, we will expand our recruitment scale to provide everyone with more development opportunities. This supply chain blockade is not a crisis for us, but a turning point—it will allow us to completely break free from our dependence on the West and become even stronger.”

After the meeting, the employees’ morale clearly stabilized. The workers at the production base returned to their posts, their anxiety replaced by determination. An old worker said with emotion: ”Since President Zhang has said so, what do we have to worry about? Following the company is definitely the right choice!”

Meanwhile, Zhang Fan was holding a secret video conference with Zhou Yurou, Liu Ruyan, Song Zhiwei, and Gu Jingshen to discuss the final closing of the Rhine Photonics acquisition in Germany. ”Tianming Group is indeed up to no good,” Song Zhiwei’s screen displayed a set of data. ”Through an offshore company, they offered the former shareholders of Rhine Photonics a 50% price increase, attempting to intercept our acquisition. Additionally, they contacted German local regulatory agencies, reporting us for a ’hostile takeover of a core technology enterprise,’ trying to delay the closing time.”

”They are a step too late,” Gu Jingshen added. ”Our overseas intelligence team detected their plan in advance and had the former shareholders sign an ’irrevocable acquisition agreement.’ Furthermore, through the German legal team arranged by President Song, we submitted all compliance documents to the regulatory agencies, proving that this acquisition fully complies with German law. Tianming’s report has been dismissed, and the closing will be completed tomorrow.”

Zhang Fan nodded: ”Very good. Once the closing is finished, immediately transfer Rhine Photonics’ core technical team to China. At the same time, establish a research and development center in Jiangcheng to accelerate the development of the next generation of Photon Chips. Also, have Gu Jingshen arrange personnel to protect the safety of the technical team and prevent Tianming from using extreme measures like assassination or kidnapping.”

”Understood!” Zhou Yurou, Liu Ruyan, and the others responded in unison.

Just then, the system suddenly popped up an alert: [New movement from Tianming Group detected! They have contacted the organizers of the International Technology Summit, attempting to set up a ’Technical Questioning Session’ at the summit, inviting several ’industry experts’ to publicly question the technical authenticity of the Photon Chip; meanwhile, they have bribed a technical manager at Singularity’s overseas branch to steal core data of the Photon Chip during the summit.]

”A summit?” A cold smile curled at the corner of Zhang Fan’s mouth. ”They certainly chose the right timing. It’s just as well; we can use this summit to let the whole world see what true independent core technology looks like.”

He looked at Gu Jingshen: ”Old Gu, contact the authorities to see if we can arrest that bribed technical manager and find evidence of his contact with Tianming. Don’t make it public for now; keep it as a ’surprise’ for the summit. Also, have the technical team prepare a ’Photon Chip Technology White Paper,’ publicly disclosing some non-core technical parameters in detail to respond to the doubts with strength.”

”I’ll contact the authorities immediately.” Gu Jingshen acted at once.
