Technological power starts with upgrading lenses

Chapter 18: Prepare for a rainy day (please follow up on Tuesday)

Sony camera users are very happy recently!

12mmF2.8 ultra-wide-angle lens,
35mmF1.4 humanities lens,

85mmF1.4 portrait lens,

100mmF2.8 macro lens,

800mmF4 super telephoto lens!
Daqin Optics has successively released manual fixed focus lenses covering almost all focal lengths at a rate of one model every three days!

As for the price, the most expensive super telephoto model is only 399 yuan!
You know, the original Soni FE 600mm F4 G Master super telephoto fixed focus lens is priced at a full 160000!

Yes, you read that right, not 1.6, but a full 16!
Of course, there is still a big gap in optical performance between the two lenses.

But this performance gap is not worth mentioning in the face of the even larger price difference.

In the face of this huge gospel, how can Sony camera users endure it?
Even professional photographers who have relatively high image quality requirements, when faced with these two choices, most of them choose Daqin Optics.

As a result, the lenses of Daqin Optics were sold out again as expected!
After adding a group of employees, Kangchi later recruited two more groups, totaling four groups of people, to ensure that the machine runs 24 hours a day and 30 days a month.

In addition, due to the surge in the number of orders and employees, corresponding human resources, finance, and customer service departments have also begun to be set up, with offices located in another warehouse next door.

At the same time, at Fang Qiming’s suggestion, Daqin Optics has successively opened official accounts on major platforms and updated the latest developments of the company’s products in real time.
This not only makes Daqin Optics more like a formal enterprise, but also increases user stickiness.

In just ten days, Daqin Optics’ official WeChat account has 20 followers, and every post it posts on its official WeChat account has exploded in comments and messages.

“To be moved is no longer the privilege of Canon users!”

“I can finally feel the joy of being envied by users of Jianneng Nikan next door.”

"Daqin Optics YYDS!"

"Haha, classmate Li made a divine prediction! With Daqin Optics, who would buy Soni original lenses?"

"Brother, the original ones are a bit too good to be true. Daqin Optics doesn't have autofocus, so no matter how cheap it is, it can't beat the original ones."

"I don't care, I'm poor! I've already hollowed out my body by buying the camera body. Tightening the focus ring more can save money and improve my skills. It's so satisfying."

"The movie lenses are all manual focus. What do you think about this?"

"It's over, it feels like the focus puller is getting more and more tangled."

"Cannon users are calling me specifically to ask when will the EF mount version be released?"

"Ni Kang D800, F mount, if you are a brother, come and stab me!"

"666 upstairs!"

"..."

When Sony users were finally feeling proud, users of cameras with other mounts could no longer sit still and came to the official website one after another to urge for updates.
-
"Since the start of production on November 11, we have received a total of 9 orders, and have actually produced 1.38 lenses. We currently have a backlog of 9600 orders. It usually takes about ten days to ship after users place an order, and according to this trend, The backlog is likely to grow."

In the Longteng Technology conference room, Fang Qiming was giving Kang Chi a monthly summary.

Although he is young, after more than half a month of training and wearing a suit, Fang Qiming already has a hint of leadership temperament.

"In terms of production capacity, the structures of recently released lens models are relatively complex, especially the 600mm super telephoto lens. There are five lenses alone and the size is twice that of the 50mm lens. This results in its manufacturing time being that of the 50mm lens. six times, which has relatively affected our shipments."

"Fortunately, it only accounts for 9% of total sales. We can barely maintain a production capacity of 20 per hour, but this is already the limit."

"Brother Kang, I propose to add another production line, and then release lens versions of Canon EF mount and Ni Kang F mount. Production capacity will definitely not be wasted."

Kang Chi nodded: "We'll discuss adding the production line later." After saying that, he turned to look at the other side of the conference room and said, "Sister Zheng, how is the company's current financial situation?"

Zheng Juan, who was named by Kang Chi, quickly stood up, opened the next page of the PPT, and reported the report:
"The company booked 198.08 million yuan this month, with production costs of 79.2, labor costs of 29.2, net profit of 89.68, and a profit margin of 45.27%."

"In addition, there are only two months left in this year. According to this trend, our annual profits should still belong to small and micro enterprises, and we only need to pay 5% corporate income tax."

"But next year, the revenue will definitely far exceed the scope of small and micro enterprises, and we will face a 25% tax rate by then. I am currently helping the company apply for the qualification of a high-tech enterprise."

"There are several items that we cannot yet meet, but Jiangsu Province has increased support for high-tech enterprises this year. Some conditions can be relaxed appropriately. The details will depend on the review of relevant departments. If you can apply, the tax rate can be reduced to 15 %."

After listening to Zheng Juan's report, Kang Chi nodded with satisfaction.

Sister Zheng was nine years older than him, and had given birth to two children in the past few years. The former employer couldn't accept the second child, so he used an excuse to force her to resign.

Although she hasn't worked for a few years, she is unambiguous in her work and has a lot of experience. Kang Chi is quite satisfied with her.

"High-tech enterprises can apply if they can. If it doesn't work, don't force it."

"In addition, although the sales volume this month is good, no one can guarantee what will happen in the future..."

Kang Chi suddenly stood up, glanced at the people present quietly, and asked in a deep voice: "You should all know whose cake we are touching now, right?"

Kang Chi's serious attitude made everyone feel nervous, and they began to carefully consider the meaning of his words.

Because Fang Qiming was familiar with the camera field, he was the first to understand what Kang Chi meant, so he asked Kang Chi nervously: "Brother Kang, do you mean Soni will attack us?"

Kang Chi nodded: "This kind of thing is bound to happen since we started mass-producing lenses."

Hearing that Daqin Optics might face challenges from Fortune [-] companies, everyone suddenly felt a lot of pressure.

In front of such a behemoth, Daqin Optics is like a mosquito that may be crushed to death at any time.

No one wants to have a good job suddenly gone...

Fang Qiming was silent for a moment and then asked Kang Chi: "Brother Kang, what should we do now?"

"Be prepared for a rainy day, make preparations in advance, and don't consider increasing the production line for the time being. In addition, I also have some tasks to give you..."

Kang Chi quickly explained the matter.

Most of the people who received the mission were confused and couldn't figure out what Kang Chi's purpose was.

But the boss didn’t take the initiative to say it, so we didn’t dare to ask.

Otherwise, you will look stupid!
Although they were full of doubts, everyone gradually regained their morale after seeing that the boss seemed confident and had everything under control.

"I hope everyone will continue to work hard in the future. You have also seen the results this month. As long as we can gain a firm foothold in the field of lens manufacturing, we can make a lot of money even if we only sell manual focus lenses. And when the company's performance picks up, everyone will Your salary will definitely be greatly improved!"

"Thank you, Mr. Kang, this is what we should do."

"Yes, Mr. Kang's salary for us is already very high."

"The most important thing is that I don't have to work overtime and I can go home when the time comes! I will work for such a good company even if the salary is less."

"Yeah, it's actually not hard at all."

Everyone started to flatter Kang Chi...

Of course, they all come from the heart.
