Tech Dominator Starts with Raising Kids-Chapter 179: Testing the Waters

For a moment, everyone’s eyes in the meeting room were on Mo Jingchun, who was frowning and deep in thought.

Everyone understood that a war without smoke was about to begin with Mo Jingchun’s next words.

Especially Qin Yuzhu and her team members, whose attention was now highly focused, preparing to haggle intensely.

Before coming, we thought the number of participants from Candy Technology wouldn’t exceed ten.

Who knew, it was actually more than three times that number.

At that moment, Mo Jingchun suddenly spoke, heightening the tense atmosphere in the meeting room to the maximum.

"Well, everyone, let’s take a break and go to the bathroom."

"Qin, you don’t know, we’ve been in a meeting for over two hours before you came."

"Xu Pengfei, right?"

Everyone widened their eyes, thinking we were about to start dining, only to be told to go to the bathroom first?

For a moment, Qin Yuzhu was almost fuming because of Mo Jingchun’s antics.

Qin Yuzhu clenched her fist, wanting to punch Mo Jingchun, but had no outlet for her energy.

Isn’t it infuriating!

Qin Yuzhu took a deep breath, her lips curled slightly, with a half-smile:

"No problem."

With consent obtained, Mo Jingchun stood up, winking at the still-stunned people.

Fortunately, everyone was sharp enough to stand up and prepare to "go to the bathroom" upon seeing Boss Mo wink.

"Cough, cough~"

"Cough, cough~"

The clumsy acting was almost too bad; even Mo Jingchun himself felt it was unnatural, let alone Qin Yuzhu and others.

But it didn’t matter anymore.

Turning the corner, Mo Jingchun led the team into meeting room R22.

On the other side, the nine people sitting in meeting room R16 exchanged glances.

"Captain Qin, could it be they really went to the bathroom?"

Qin Yuzhu took a sip of water and said slowly, "Do they look like they’re going to the bathroom?"

"Who goes to the bathroom all together, with both men and women?"

"I haven’t heard that the toilets in Candy Technology Mansion are unisex."

"There’s nothing to worry about, it’s customary to give time for discussions during pricing negotiations, no?"

"No worry! Let them discuss."

In R22 meeting room, Mo Jingchun cleared his throat, "Cough, cough~"

"Well, President Xu, why don’t you brief everyone about the smart myopia glasses the company developed, and then we’ll discuss a suitable price."

Hearing this, Xu Pengfei, who hadn’t even had a chance to sit down, nodded and began:

"Alright, let me briefly explain the smart myopia glasses."

"In simple terms, the company’s smart myopia glasses differ from the smart glasses everyone imagined; they automatically adjust lens strength according to the wearer’s degree of myopia, thereby correcting vision."

"And just now in R17 meeting room, the new material Z_001 they mentioned is specifically for the lenses of these smart myopia glasses."

"Our smart myopia glasses also don’t require charging, just need to install a button cell battery."

"If these glasses enter the market at a civilian price, it could cause a lot of unnecessary problems, so these smart myopia glasses are normally priced over ten thousand."

"Of course, besides selling smart myopia glasses and building our brand, we’ll also sell lenses and control components externally, with those prices naturally being much cheaper."

"Cough, cough, everyone heard what President Xu said, right?"

"Due to time constraints, everyone hurry up to discuss the price."

After Mo Jingchun finished speaking, everyone in the meeting room leaned in to discuss and share their thoughts with colleagues.

"A pair of glasses could sell for ten thousand, and considering bulk lens and component sales externally should be cheaper, a price of 100,000 per kilogram for Z_001 isn’t unreasonable, is it?"

"That won’t do, they’ll definitely counteroffer, doubling the price would be better, giving us room to negotiate down."

——————

A few minutes later, everyone’s suggestions were finally consolidated.

The quote for Z_001 was 199,999 yuan per kilogram, with a low price of 69,999 yuan per kilogram.

And we must ensure the selling price to other companies remains above this price.

Otherwise, emm.

No need for anyone to remark, Mo Jingchun could guess that by then, Qin Yuzhu would come knocking with "thanks."

Not just that, she definitely would come with "thanks."

Looking at Mo Jingchun and others who had returned, Qin Yuzhu had a barely discernible smile on her lips.

"Back from the bathroom?"

"Yes, we’re back."

Qin Yuzhu raised an eyebrow and chuckled:

"Now, shall we move on with the pricing?"

"Sure." Mo Jingchun nodded.

Mo Jingchun wrote down 199,999 yuan per kilogram on paper and pushed it forward.

The person sitting on the outermost side passed the paper to Qin Yuzhu.

Qin Yuzhu picked up the paper with the quote, smiled and said:

"Boss Mo, this isn’t like you, weren’t you going to be straightforward?"

"With this price, I can’t go back and report, you know."

Pretending to be heartbroken, Mo Jingchun closed his eyes and gave another price on paper.

169,999 yuan per kilogram.

Qin Yuzhu looked at it and shook her head.

Seeing this, Mo Jingchun quoted another price.

Back and forth, after several quotes, Mo Jingchun ended up writing 99,999 yuan per kilogram.

Seeing the boss being so candid, Xu Pengfei and others had their mouths twitching, and eventually, they became numb to it.

Boss, couldn’t we have reduced the price bit by bit?

Looking at the latest quote, Qin Yuzhu looked at it for a long time without speaking, because it was still slightly off her expected price.

Qin Yuzhu looked up at Mo Jingchun, her brows furrowed, speaking heavily.

"Boss Mo, this is still a bit off my bottom price, how about lowering it a bit more?"

Hearing this, Mo Jingchun stopped writing and directly said:

"Qin, let’s be straightforward, our bottom price is 79,999 yuan per kilogram."

"You also know, research needs funding, and I can’t live off old projects without researching new ones, right?"

The people who had been worried for the boss felt relieved once they heard the boss hadn’t immediately revealed the bottom price.

Across the table, Qin Yuzhu was silent, and the others looked at her without making a sound.

After a while, Qin Yuzhu suddenly smiled and said, "Deal."

"But Boss Mo, you haven’t forgotten what you said over the phone last time, have you?"

"Ah? What?" Mo Jingchun was puzzled for a moment.

Qin Yuzhu said with a sly smile, "Of course, the discount, isn’t a ten percent off a bit too much?"

Mo Jingchun tapped the table and calmly retorted: "Qin, discounts can only be used once, are you sure you want to use it on the new material Z_001 rather than the leukemia special medicine?"

For a moment, the meeting room returned to silence.
