Chapter 225: Chapter 130: Massive Blow
Yan Fei and Lu Pingping concluded their News Conference and relocated the headquarters of Dream Technology to the Jinshan Development Zone in Suzhou City, Lin Province. Initially, Lu Pingping had purchased a villa there as a new home for Yan Fei. However, with Yan Fei’s insistence, Lu Pingping bought another villa nearby as her own new home.
Meanwhile, in their wake in Shanghai, the content revealed in the News Conference sparked a massive storm. In this storm, some were unfortunate, falling from high altitudes with no chance of rising again; while others rejoiced, skies clearing with swift ascension to the peaks of power.
However, all of this was temporarily irrelevant to Yan Fei. In the Jinshan Development Zone, Yan Fei and Lu Pingping received a warm welcome from the Suzhou Municipal Government. To the Municipal Government, Dream Technology’s move was like an unexpected gift from heaven. The over-the-top flattery and promises given to Yan Fei and Lu Pingping during their welcome felt almost surreal to the pair. But having navigated through the twists and turns in Shanghai, they knew that others’ promises and assistance could not be relied upon, and that their own Strength was the only reliable thing. Without sufficient strength, all the flattery and promises would disappear, which urged them to quickly strengthen their Company.
The next day, the girl with acne named Su Tan’er finally came around and found the Jinshan Development Zone using the address revealed on Dream Technology’s official website. Lu Pingping received her and signed an agreement with her. While treating her facial acne, they also assisted her in resolving her debts to the loanshark, and in return, Su Tan’er signed a lifelong employment contract to work for Dream Technology.
After acquiring a new Food Processing Factory, upon hearing news about the upcoming release of new cosmetics from Yan Fei, Lu Pingping immediately purchased a cosmetics factory nearby. This cosmetics factory was a state-owned enterprise that had shined in the past but was gradually phased out by the market due to systemic reasons and its inability to keep up with modern times, pushing it to the brink of cessation.
Situated right next to the new Food Processing Factory, the cosmetics factory made for a conveniently located neighbor. Despite being on the verge of shutdown, the factory boasted a comprehensive product line and had all the necessary business operating procedures in place. Moreover, the factory spanned a significant area of a thousand acres. The most crucial aspect was that, although the equipment was old, it was well-maintained and could still be used. Besides, there were several skilled workers in the factory who could immediately start production as soon as the Raw Materials were in place.
Thus, even though Dream Technology paid a hefty price, outright purchasing the cosmetics factory brought immense convenience to the company. The staff reorganization was already completed, and production of qualified products could begin immediately after Yan Fei made certain adjustments to the production lines. For management purposes, Yan Fei also renamed the factory to Dream Cosmetics Ltd, establishing it as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dream Technology.
Having their own cosmetics production Factory, Yan Fei found a secluded room within to begin experimenting with the production of Medicine containing Skin Antibodies. Guided by the meticulous predictions of the Drone Technology Analysis system, the Skin Antibody was divided into over ten specific applications. These included Eliminating Skin Parasites, eye skin Antibody, facial skin Antibody, hand skin Antibody, foot skin Antibody, scar elimination, Facial Freckle Removal, Skin Whitening, and others, covering the entire spectrum of cosmetics market products.
After discussing with Lu Pingping, they decided to gradually release various Skin Antibody Application functions step by step. Unlike the Weight Loss Cookies that had no formidable competitors, the cosmetics market, though holding vast potential, was dominated by industry titans. These giants had been cultivating the Market for many years and had considerable Forces and market influence. If Dream Technology’s Skin Antibody products all launched at once, they would inevitably face suppression from these cosmetics juggernauts. Under their collective pressure, even if Skin Antibody products had superior effects, they might still fail to succeed, as cases of bad money driving out good were not uncommon in the market.
After analyzing the specific situation, Lu Pingping decided that the first cosmetic product to be launched on the market would be for Eliminating Skin Parasites.
The reason for picking this product as the first to enter the Market was primarily because it had few competitors and wouldn’t attract attention. Moreover, its market size wasn’t large, making it easy to be overlooked. Once this product had established a firm foothold and made a name for the company, they would introduce other products in succession. By following an approach of tackling the easiest targets first, they would gradually conquer the entire cosmetics market. By the time the cosmetics titans realized something was amiss, it would be too late; Dream Cosmetics would have already fully grown within that time frame.
Therefore, the first product Yan Fei prepared to produce was the one that added Antibody targeting skin Parasites to the Immune System. Within the Technology Deduction System, the production formula for this product resembled a Chinese Medicine prescription, consisting of 24 Raw Materials primarily plant-based, combined with a special method of processing. Of the Raw Materials, aside from two types of Chinese Medicine, the remaining 22 were common plants found in mountains. These two types of Chinese Medicine ingredients were abundantly available and Affordable, bringing the product’s cost down very low. Similar to the previous Slimming liquid concocted by Yan Fei, these ingredients occupied a very low proportion of the product’s pricing.
