Leveling Up With My Pet

The convoy arrived with a regal procession at the entrance of Global New Energy Group's No. 1 factory. Bi Qingyun, peering through the window's pristine glass, couldn't suppress his sense of awe.

The sprawling expanse of the factory grounds sprawled out before him, leaving him momentarily speechless.

"By all accounts," he mused, his gaze sweeping across to the neighbouring No. 2 factory of Universal Semiconductor Group, "this is truly an enormous establishment."

As the convoy inched closer to the factory gates, the vigilant security guard there had already been alerted and promptly swung open the gates.

A line of petite cars, closely tailed by a procession of imposing trucks, rolled into the factory compound. Once inside, the entrance opened to an extensive reception area, and a magnificent office tower loomed on the horizon.

A few smaller vehicles made a beeline for the office building's entrance. Simultaneously, the dozen colossal trucks navigated along the broad, unswerving tarmac within the factory, heading toward the logistics precinct.

The logistics arena was vast, resembling an area slightly more extensive than a standard football field. It could comfortably house a dozen sizable trucks without any crowding issues. Apart from the expansive open space, an enormous warehouse was also on-site.

As Bi Qingyun and his entourage disembarked from their vehicles, they were warmly greeted by an eager host.

"President Bi," the host beamed enthusiastically, "our CEO is at the No. 1 factory's production site. Allow me to escort you there."

With that, they all ventured into the No. 1 factory building. Inside this hollow structure, sprawling across thousands of square meters, a diligent workforce was in full swing, multiple production lines humming to life, churning out batteries piece by piece.

"President Bi, welcome!" greeted Liu Yong as he extended a hand toward Bi Qingyun. However, Bi Qingyun's eyes remained riveted to the mesmerizing assembly lines.

"Mr. Liu," Bi Qingyun breathed, his voice a mixture of admiration and excitement, "this production scene is nothing short of spectacular. It's a joy to behold. Witnessing the mass production of so many batteries, it's impossible not to be moved."

Liu Yong's jubilant smile matched Bi Qingyun's enthusiasm. "Today, we've officially launched six mobile phone battery production lines and three car battery production lines," he proudly declared.

Finishing his statement, Liu Yong reached for a mobile phone battery and held it aloft. "See this? This is our mobile phone battery."

Bi Qingyun accepted the petite mobile phone battery, closely scrutinizing it. "I heard that today marks the commencement of mass production. I've brought along a fleet of a dozen large trucks, intending to load the first batch of batteries right away."

Liu Yong nodded affirmatively. "Absolutely, we can commence loading immediately."

As they strolled through the factory, followed by a sizable entourage, they inspected the production facilities before proceeding to the warehouse. Inside, diligent workers carefully packed the freshly manufactured mobile phone batteries into boxes, one by one.

The entire Jinpen County was ecstatic, more festive and glorious than any Chinese New Year celebration.

The inaugural graphene-aluminum battery, heralded with a fanfare, was now a reality in Jinpen County.

As evening descended, Jinpen County hosted a lavish fireworks display, painting half the sky crimson with its breathtaking pyrotechnics.

News of the first graphene-aluminum battery's production was swiftly disseminated, with media outlets eagerly covering the event.

"A Miracle Is Born!" exclaimed one headline. "Fuel vehicles, prepare to bid farewell!" another announced. "What will a mobile phone powered by a graphene-aluminum battery look like? We eagerly await!" chimed a third. "We are at the vanguard of innovation; let the Western world envy us!" proclaimed yet another. "An exhilarating moment: Remember the birth of the first graphene-aluminum battery!" rhapsodized the final headline.

The news saturated every corner, inundating the media landscape—on the internet, television, or WeChat Moments. The world was captivated by graphene-aluminum batteries.

Liu Yong returned to Huahai City that very day.

In the evening, seated on his living room sofa and tuning into the CCTV news, his delight knew no bounds upon witnessing the coverage of graphene-aluminium batteries. Even the official media were dedicating airtime to it.

"This is incredible! Universal Enterprise Group has truly shaken the industry to its core," he exclaimed, awe-struck.

"Until recently, it felt like a mere dream. Yet here we are, witnessing the birth of graphene-aluminum batteries," he continued, thoroughly impressed.

"It's a shame," he chuckled, "I just purchased a Mango phone. Are they going to force me to switch to a Golden Dragon phone?"

Amidst the flurry of thoughts, Liu Yong realized that a new era had dawned, and the future was charged with potential.

Three days later, Qingyun International Group announced that the Jinlong mobile phone, equipped with graphene-aluminum batteries, would be available for sale both online and in brick-and-mortar stores.

Online sales skyrocketed, and queues snaked outside physical stores nationwide. The fortunate early adopters who possessed the new King Long mobile phones were ecstatic.

"No doubt about it," one customer raved, "the battery life on this Jinlong mobile phone is astounding."

"Indeed," chimed in another. "The new phone I bought yesterday morning has seen hours of gaming and video streaming, yet its battery only depleted by 10%. At this rate, a full charge will easily last ten days."

"Unbelievable! I'm sold!"

As word of the remarkable battery life spread, King Long mobile phone owners were jubilant, touting their new devices to anyone who would listen.

Meanwhile, at Universal Building, the president of OOP Mobile emerged with a triumphant entourage in tow.

"Mr. Liu really delivered," one of his associates marvelled. "He secured an order for 50 million mobile phone batteries. I never anticipated this level of success."

"Our time has come," President Kong Demin declared, his voice ringing excitedly. "We're getting 50 million graphene-aluminum batteries, but we must work diligently to catch up. It'll take us three months to receive the goods."

Liu Yong's disclosure during negotiations had Kong Demin practically dancing with delight. The graphene-aluminum batteries would initially cater to the domestic market, leaving foreign mobile phone manufacturers in the lurch.

This revelation filled Kong Demin with unbridled joy. Foreign phone manufacturers, deprived of graphene-aluminum batteries, were bound to vanish from the domestic market.

As Kong Demin and his associates were about to enter their awaiting vehicles, their gaze fell upon an approaching convoy. A multitude of individuals disembarked from the cars and began to assemble nearby.

Kong Demin recognized many of them, particularly the top brass of Mango Mobile, most of whom hailed from abroad.

The sight left Kong Demin and his associates stunned. They had expected Trolop Nath, the president of Mango Mobile, to be absent in person. This wasn't just the general manager of the Yanguo District branch—it was the global president himself.

Mango Mobile was a renowned international brand, its sales and revenue ranking among the top three worldwide.

Their presence here could only mean one thing—they had come for the graphene-aluminum battery.
