Chapter 354 Radiation Card
Chapter 354 Radiation Card
"Not answering is just the first step."
Zhang Jianguo stubbed out his cigar in the ashtray again, then raised his second finger.
"Although it's prohibited, some people will definitely take on private jobs. Let the channels send a notice in the industry group that anyone who takes orders from Transsion will be fined 2000 yuan at once."
These installers are all part-time workers; they make a living this way.
2000 yuan is enough for them to work for several days, but if we need to make an example of a few, no one dares to take the job.
Everyone nodded; this method had to be used… After all, with a large group, some people would inevitably have their own ulterior motives, especially those hoping for a lucky break…
"Is there another way?"
Chen Guoliang moved to the side, and the detail was that his right hand moved even closer to the side.
"public opinion."
Even though Zhang Zhiqiang is usually very bold, he spoke much softer when he said this.
What are ordinary people most afraid of?
I'm afraid of radiation!
Cell phones emit radiation, WiFi emits radiation, microwave ovens emit radiation.
What about smart homes?
When Zhang Zhiqiang said this, he spread his hands out completely, and then slowly closed them together.
"Smart homes are all about WiFi, Bluetooth, and sensors."
Ordinary people don't understand technology; if you tell them there's radiation, they'll believe you.
Sun Minghui frowned.
"Isn't this... a bit too much?"
The others in the meeting room hesitated, after all, they only wanted to act as agents, not spread rumors.
Compared to Transsion's legal team, theirs is pitifully weak.
After all, Transsion's legal team is currently fighting in the United States on one hand, and traveling to various regions on the other, going to different courts and police stations repeatedly...
Too much practical experience!
Seeing that everyone was about to give up, Zhang Zhiqiang stared at Sun Minghui and said, "What are you going to do about it?"
The telepathic communication broke the rules, I'm just letting them know who made the rules!
We're not spreading rumors; smart home devices do emit radiation, that's a fact!
It's just that the radiation level is within the safety standard.
But we're not science bloggers; we're not responsible for telling them the safety standards. We just say there's radiation, and the public will make their own connections.
The joking and laughing in the conference room instantly disappeared, after all, this move was indeed ruthless, and it was skirting the line.
Once they're targeted, they're definitely going to suffer a lot.
"I think it's feasible."
Liu Guoliang made a statement first, after all, as a major distributor, he had seen it all.
"The public is most sensitive to the issue of radiation."
If there are elderly people, children, or pregnant women in the family, it's better to believe it's true than not to believe it's not.
Once people start discussing it at night, no matter how they explain it, it's useless.
Explanation is just a cover-up, and a cover-up is the truth.
Chen Guoliang hesitated, after all, one of his agents had encountered the same thing just last month, and he almost laughed himself to death when he heard about it.
A woman in her fifties came to their store and made a scene, claiming that the air conditioners they sold emitted radiation that caused her daughter-in-law's baby to be born with dark skin, and demanded compensation from them.
But that soy sauce color couldn't have been caused by radiation...
"One of our agents just encountered this last week; many people are indeed afraid of radiation."
But since we've started, we should do it properly.
I know a few experts in the home appliance industry, the kind who've been on TV. Having them say a few words would be much more effective than having people post online.
Zhang Zhiqiang looked around, and everyone nodded in agreement.
"No one objects?"
No one speaks.
"Then it's settled. We'll split up and push forward with both installation and public opinion simultaneously, doing our utmost."
"If we can secure the Transsion deal, and increase our customer service, installation, and debugging fees by 20%, plus the manufacturer's rebate, doubling each of our assets wouldn't be a problem."
…………
When the meeting ended at 3 p.m., the previously clear sky was suddenly turned into a downpour.
"This rain couldn't have come at the right time," Chen Guoliang muttered.
"Old Chen, you still believe in feng shui?" Sun Minghui said with a smile.
"Old Chen, don't laugh at me for being no better. Don't think I don't know you have a lot of stuff in your house."
"I just think this rain came on so strangely."
Zhang Zhiqiang remained silent. He also believed that human will could overcome nature, and with a large population, some rules could not be changed.
What he didn't know was that although he had prepared to record, everyone else had also prepared.
…………
The public opinion fermented faster than Zhang Zhiqiang had imagined.
On July 25th, ten days after Transsion's smart home product launch, a large number of discussions about radiation from smart homes suddenly appeared on Weibo.
Looking at these headlines, Zhang Zhiqiang sometimes wondered if a third party had intervened.
The largest blogger is the Weibo account of "Home Appliance Observer," which is verified as a home appliance industry analyst and has over 50 followers.
"With the increasing number of smart home devices, WiFi, Bluetooth, and other wireless signals, various wireless signals are intertwined in the home."
Studies have shown that long-term exposure to complex electromagnetic environments may have potential effects on the human body.
The elderly, pregnant women, and children are especially sensitive to these conditions.
We advise everyone to carefully consider their options when purchasing smart home products.
This blogger had considered the strength of Transsion's legal department before posting, but faced with the lure of money, he ultimately chose to succumb...
However, words like "potential impact" and "careful consideration" are no different from harmful in the eyes of the average reader.
Following this, several health bloggers and parenting bloggers began to share it.
Use his original image and add your own text, such as #Attention pregnant women at home: Smart home technology may affect fetal development#
#For your child's health, stay away from smart homes#
#Transsion Smart Home WiFi Coverage, Radiation Comparable to Base Stations#
The number of views on topics related to "between heaven and earth" has exceeded 100 million, and the topic has spread to various family groups.
Some young people tried desperately to explain to their elderly relatives that the radiation was harmless, but the elderly wouldn't listen and kept forwarding the information.
#SmartHomeRadiation# successfully topped the trending searches.
At the same time, dissenting voices began to appear on Transsion's official Weibo account.
Do you have radiation reports for your products?
"I have a three-month-old baby at home, so I'm afraid to pretend?"
Does installing a full smart home system mean living in a microwave oven?
Transsion's publicity department detected this as soon as the public opinion campaign began.
The key words are "Transsion smart home radiation" and "traditional home appliances are better".
He took a screenshot and sent it to Li Qing.
"Mr. Li, public opinion has taken off, and it's mostly negative. The source is several bloggers in the home appliance and health categories. Their content is highly similar, and their wording is also very alike."
Preliminary assessment suggests that someone is orchestrating this crisis!
Li Qing smiled. It took 10 days to start taking action; these people were a bit weaker than she had imagined.
"Check the backgrounds of those bloggers and prepare to have them 'chatted' with them."
