Volume 6 Chapter 110 - Itâs Not As Serious As You Think
Although Sandico’s trembling voice was small, because of how quiet it was in the room, everyone had heard this and couldn’t help revealing different expressions at the same time.
Xu Yi’s expression was calm and he brought over the water he still hadn’t drank yet.
“Calm down, explain it slowly.”
Sandico took the cup of water and drank it all before giving two coughs. Only then did he gasp for breath and hand the piece of paper in his hand to Xu Yi.
“Sir chairman, this came from the Sack Kingdom side.”
“Sack Kingdom?” Xu Yi looked at Sandico with a bit of surprise. After thinking for a bit, he gave a nod and opened the piece of paper in his hand.
There were only two lines on the paper and it looked very simple, but after Xu Yi read it, he couldn’t help revealing a surprised look.
“The Sack Kingdom magic research facility announced that they have developed the Magic Cannon and will be starting to ma.s.s produce Magic Cannons soon.”
It was just a few short words, but there was a rich meaning in them.
First, the Sack Kingdom developing the Magic Cannon was definitely a shocking piece of news.
The military magic machines had always been held by the Frestech Chamber of Commerce alone. Although the Lampuri Kingdom and the Rudson Kingdom had a portion of it from the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, therefore they had some grasp of the military magic machines, they only had only the most preliminary military magic machines. It wasn’t a problem to increase the strength of their armies, but their magic machines were far from being able to match the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s.
Among the high level military magic machines grasped by the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, the Magic Cannon was one of the more important ones. Moreover, in Xu Yi’s plan for developing military magic machines, the Magic Cannons were an important part.
Now that the Sack Kingdom had actually developed it, it meant that they would break the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s monopoly on the military magic machines.
This was without a doubt a large blow to the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, but it was also inspiring news for the other countries.
Because the Sack Kingdom had developed the Magic Cannon, which meant that the other countries had hope of developing it and they wouldn’t be restricted by the Frestech Chamber of Commerce.
Moreover, expanding on this news…...Since they could develop the Magic Cannon without the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, did that mean they could also develop the other military magic machines by themselves?
Thinking about it, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s military magic machines didn’t fall from s.p.a.ce and they had developed it.
Since the Frestech Chamber of Commerce could develop it, didn’t that mean that others could develop them as well?
For the people that wanted to enter the military magic machine industry, this was the greatest boost to their confidence.
It was also a boost of confidence for those that wanted to develop household magic machines.
It could be imagined what kind of powerful impact the Sack Kingdom announcing this news would have.
The Frestech Chamber of Commerce would without a doubt also be affected.
After Xu Yi was surprised, he thought about it and then revealed a relaxed smile. He casually gave the piece of paper to Ozil before having him pa.s.s it to the others in the room after he finished reading it.
After reading this paper, everyone in the room fell into silence, but they all had serious looks on their faces.
As middle cla.s.s managers of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, naturally they were clear on the serious effect this would have on the Frestech Chamber of Commerce.
The Frestech Chamber of Commerce was developing this quickly. The reason why they had this special status was because of their magic machines, especially their monopoly on military magic machines. It forced many people into cooperating with the Frestech Chamber of Commerce.
But now that the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s monopoly had suffered a large blow and they wouldn’t have the same powerful monopoly as before, there were many people that would start treating the Frestech Chamber of Commerce differently.
The impact of this couldn’t be described with just a few words.
“Sir chairman……” Ozil said before after opening his mouth, he found that he didn’t know what to say.
The other people in the conference room looked at Xu Yi with the same serious expression, but no one could react in this short period of time, so they all looked at Xu Yi, waiting for him to speak.
Xu Yi looked over at everyone and said with a smile, “What? Why are you looking at me? Is there something on my face?”
Everyone blankly looked at each other before Sandico asked in a voice where he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, “Sir chairman, this…..What time is it now and you’re still in the mood to joke?”
“Yes, sir chairman.” Ozil couldn’t help saying, “This matter…..You need to quickly think of a way to deal with it.”
Xu Yi gave a relaxed shrug, “What deal with it? Why do you all have serious expressions for? Is this matter very serious?”
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
One could easily tell how important this matter was, so how could sir chairman not see it?
But how could sir chairman react like this? Could it be that he really felt it wasn’t serious?
How could that be possible!
“Sir chairman……”
Xu Yi raised his hand to cut off Sandico.
“This matter is not in the range of what we’re discussing today, don’t waste time.” He turned to Ozil after saying this, “As for establishing the new product distribution center, you should prepare yourselves. I want an initial plan within a month from you all and submit the plan for the new product distribution center to me. Within the year, I want the new product distribution center to start operations and for it to be used next year, do you understand?”
Ozil and Sandico looked at each other before giving nods.
“Yes, sir chairman.”
“Then, we’ll leave it like this.” Xu Yi gave a nod before patting Sandico’s shoulder, “Sandico, after the new product distribution center is built, Frestech City will be affected, so you as the City Lord should be prepared. I’ll give you a suggestion, contact the New Moon Chamber of Commerce more, I feel that the New Moon Chamber of Commerce’s plan will help Frestech City’s development.”
“New Moon Chamber of Commerce?” Sandico looked at Xu Yi with a bit of hesitation.
“Don’t hesitate. Although Still is my wife, the New Moon Chamber of Commerce is the New Moon Chamber of Commerce and Still is Still. I’m giving you this suggestion because the New Moon Chamber of Commerce’s new plan is very promising. It can let Frestech City obtain a new method of development.”
“Un, I understand.” Sandico gave a nod, “I’ll go to the New Moon Chamber of Commerce.”
“Alright, let’s end today’s meeting here. As for what I just told you, you should take the time to study it.”
After saying this, Xu Yi gave a wave of his hand and left the conference room.
After talking a few steps out, Xu Yi’s Magic Communicator rang.
Xu Yi wasn’t surprised at all and instantly picked up.
“Hey, is this Kennard?”
Kennard’s voice from the Magic Communicator was a bit surprised.
“Sir chairman, how did you know it was me?”
“Nonsense, I already received the news, so how could you as the CEO not receive it? If you didn’t come looking for me after receiving this news, there’s no need for you to be the CEO.”
“Ha……” Kennard gave an exhausted laugh, “Sir chairman, the Sack Kingdom’s matter…..what…..do you think?”
“What do I think?” Xu Yi gave a laugh, “Would you believe it if I said that I was very happy?”
There was a bit of silence from the Magic Communicator before Kennard’s helpless sigh came out.
“Sir chairman, I’ve always known about your ideal which is to spread the magic machine industry across the continent, so everyone can enjoy the benefits of magic machines, but…...that doesn’t include the military magic machines. Moreover, you should know how important this is for our company. If we lose the advantage in terms of military magic machines, our company will be seriously affected. It might even hurt us in the household magic machine department that is important to you.”
“It isn’t as serious as you think. Actually, the Sack Kingdom helped us with a big favour because they can stimulate more people to invest in the magic machine industry, so I’m very happy.” Xu Yi said.
“But, sir chairman……”
“Kennard, based on the angle of our company, I don’t think that this is a bad thing.” Xu Yi patiently continued to explain to Kennard, “For many people, they only know good and bad.”
“For example, in terms of household magic machines, before there were any other companies, although our company’s magic machines were very popular, there were many people who knew how outstanding our company’s magic machines were. When there were other magic machine companies that appeared and there were more brands, when people compared the, they realized that the Frestech Brand was much better than the other brands and this increased the sales of our company.”
“That is correct, but the household magic machines are different from military magic machines……” Kennard’s voice was still a bit worried.
Xu Yi gave a laugh, “Kennard, I know about your worries, but relax, this isn’t that different.”
“Sir chairman, you…..”
“Just believe me. Give me two days to handle this and I’ll give you an explanation.”
“This…...Sir chairman, I don’t need an explanation, but…..I’m just a bit worried. Since you are prepared, then I can be a.s.sured.”
“Alright.”
After hanging up on Kennard, Xu Yi paused for a bit before opening the Magic Communicator again to press a few b.u.t.tons.
“h.e.l.lo, is this sir chairman?” After a while, Evita’s voice came from the Magic Communicator.
“It’s me. Evita, I’ll be coming to the main base in a bit, bring Teresa to your office, I want to see her.”
There was silence from the other side before Evita took a deep breath.
“Sir chairman, could it be……”
“Yes, it’s time.”
“Alright……”
