Chapter 37 Emergency Report
Chapter 37 Emergency Report
Li Bingqian realized that the environmental protection field was about to undergo tremendous changes, and the industry would also be reshuffled.
If Henghui Group can reach a cooperation agreement with it, it can still occupy a place in the new industry ecosystem in the future, or even reach a higher level.
Conversely, it is very likely that it will decline from then on.
Because their existing businesses are simply not competitive with DeepBlue Technology's solution, customer churn is inevitable.
Li Bingqian did not stay there for long; he needed to return to headquarters to report.
At the same time, Su Qingyue was also preparing to return to Shenhong.
"President Su, I really want to thank you for connecting us today. Otherwise, Henghui would have missed this unprecedented, historic opportunity. Most importantly, I want to thank you for saving my career," Li Bingqian said to Su Qingyue.
He was genuinely grateful to the other party.
He remembered that DeepBlue had sent someone to visit him last month, but he had mistaken them for swindlers.
It's conceivable that if DeepBlue had partnered with another company, even though the headquarters knew that DeepBlue Technology had proactively approached them, he refused to meet them.
Missing out on such a great opportunity will inevitably lead to a furious outburst and the expulsion of the company.
Su Qingyue: "You're too kind. It was just a small favor, and besides, I'm also a shareholder of DeepBlue."
Li Bingqian said with a smile, "I have to admire President Su's investment acumen. She has bet on a super unicorn. I think it won't be long before President Su becomes the richest woman in Xin'an City, and President Lin is likely to become the richest person in the country."
Clearly, Li Bingqian believes that DeepBlue Technology, with its innovative "plastic-eating bacteria" technology, can not only become a unicorn, but its future valuation is also likely to grow into a giant enterprise worth hundreds of billions.
He truly admired Su Qingyue's foresight. He had heard about Skyworth Technology last year, and Shen Hong quickly withdrew from the situation.
To Li Bingqian's surprise, the founder of DeepBlue Technology was the same person as the founder of Skyworth Technology.
What surprised him even more was that Su Qingyue had invested in DeepBlue Technology.
Clearly, Li Bingqian had also heard about Lin Chuan's departure from Skyworth Technology, which must have made investors furious.
Most investors would have broken up with Lin Chuan after this happened. He didn't expect that Su Qingyue would invest in Lin Chuan's second venture under these circumstances.
His vision and courage were admirable, especially considering she was a woman.
Li Bingqian didn't forget his business. After a brief chat with Su Qingyue, he got into his car and hurriedly left, as he needed to report the situation to headquarters as soon as possible.
Su Qingyue then got into her car and left.
In the back seat of the car, Su Qingyue took out her phone and texted Lin Chuan: [Great, spending your sister's money to support such a beautiful secretary.]
Lin Chuan quickly replied: [This is all for my senior sister's happiness. I'm developing new gameplay, and someone has to rehearse it, right?]
Su Qingyue: [???]
Su Qingyue: [Eye roll/Eye roll/Eye roll/]
Su Qingyue: [Shouldn't I thank you, sister?]
Lin Chuan: [If you want to thank me, I don't mind.]
Su Qingyue: [Go...]
Su Qingyue: [Come to my sister's house after get off work. She wants to thank you in person and also check on your rehearsal progress.]
Lin Chuan: [Yes, sir.]
……
On the other hand, Li Bingqian dialed a number as soon as he got back.
The phone rang twice and was answered.
"Mr. Zhou, it's me."
"Old Li, what's up? I'm in a meeting."
"Mr. Zhou, you need to come out and answer this call. Something big has happened in Xin'an."
There was a two-second silence on the other end of the phone, followed by the sound of a chair being moved.
"explain."
Li Bingqian spent fifteen minutes recounting everything he had seen at DeepBlue Technology that day.
There was silence on the other end of the phone.
"Mr. Zhou? Are you listening?"
"I'm listening."
The voice that came through had changed; it was no longer impatient, but instead filled with shock and solemnity.
"Old Li, is what you're saying true?"
Li Bingqian said with absolute certainty: "It's absolutely true. Would I joke about something like this?"
"Okay. Lao Li, listen up, I'm going to see the chairman right now. Don't go anywhere today, don't turn off your phone, wait for my call."
"clear."
The phone hangs up.
Li Bingqian leaned back in his chair and let out a long breath.
Anyway, he had already reported the situation immediately. Either he would get a promotion and a raise for his outstanding contribution, or if something went wrong at headquarters, it wouldn't be his fault.
Next, we just need to wait for the headquarters' instructions.
……
Shanghai, Henghui Group headquarters.
Upon receiving the report from Xincheng, Zhou Chengyue immediately went to the chairman's office.
"Chairman, Xin'an's business department has reported a major event."
Chairman Jiang Yize raised his head. He founded Henghui Group around 2000, and it has now become one of the top three environmental protection companies in the country.
"What's the rush?"
"There's a startup tech company in Xin'an. Li Bingqian went to visit the company today. They've cultivated an engineered microbial community that can rapidly degrade various common plastics at room temperature and pressure. The products are only water and carbon dioxide. The degradation cycle is as fast as a week and as long as a month, and the cost is only 30 yuan per ton."
Zhou Chengyue then recounted to the chairman the situation that Li Bingqian had previously reported to him.
"What did you say?"
Like Zhou Chengyue, Chairman Jiang Yize was also shocked when he first heard about it.
"Is this true?"
"Li Bingqian said he personally witnessed the experimental process, reviewed the test data, and talked with the project leader for a long time, which is probably true. He wouldn't joke like that."
Jiang Yize remained silent for a long time.
"If that's the case, do you know what that means?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Chengyue slowly said:
"If this technology is real, the traditional recycling industry, including our core business, will be completely disrupted within three to five years. Sorting, washing, melting, granulation... all the things we've been doing for over a decade will lose their value."
"Secondly, whoever masters this technology controls the pricing power in the global environmental protection industry. With a processing cost of thirty yuan, even if the price is quoted at one hundred yuan, there is still a three-fold profit, while the cost of competitors is still several times higher. Moreover, DeepBlue's solution is a perfectly harmless 'zero' degradation, which is simply uncompetitive."
"If we don't acquire this technology and someone else does, Henghui's position in the environmental protection industry will not only be jeopardized, but it may very well decline."
"You missed something," Jiang Yize said to Zhou Chengyue. "If we acquire this technology, Henghui can transform from a 'waste disposal company' into an 'environmental service provider,' and the market potential will be worth far more than hundreds of billions."
Zhou Chengyue nodded: "Chairman, we need to act as soon as possible."
Jiang Yize immediately ordered, "Let's have a meeting in half an hour."
