Building a Business Empire with my Technological System

Chapter 87 The Public Release



Chapter 87  The Public Release

August 15th, 2024.

Michael was in the event hall of SM North Edsa where an array of solar panels with different sizes for consumer use are prominently displayed along with their price tags. And in the event, thousands of people attended, lining up on the outside, wanting to get a piece of the action and see the innovative solar panels up close. The buzz and excitement in the air were palpable as Michael walked through the hall, observing the crowd's reactions and answering questions from potential buyers and curious onlookers.

As he made his way to the main display area, he couldn't help but feel a sense of pride. The solar panels were finally getting the recognition they deserved, and they were getting sold.

At the center of the event hall, a stage was set up for presentations and speeches. Michael, as the guest of honor and key speaker, was scheduled to talk about the importance of renewable energy and how his company's solar panels could play a crucial role in making the Philippines more energy-independent.

As the time for his speech approached, Michael reviewed his notes one last time. "Now, let's hear it to the CEO of the SolaraTech Corporation, Michael Reyes," the emcee announced, prompting a round of applause from the audience. Michael stepped onto the stage and approached the podium. "Good afternoon, everyone," Michael began. "Thank you for joining us today at this pivotal event. We stand at a crossroads in terms of how we generate and consume energy. The choices we make today will shape our environment, economy, and society for generations to come. For the last one hundred years, we get our energy from fossil fuels, which have been detrimental to our planet. But now, we have the technology and the opportunity to change that."

He paused for a moment, allowing his words to sink in, then continued, "Our solar panels represent more than just a product; they signify a shift towards sustainable living and energy independence. By harnessing the power of the sun, which is both abundant and free, we can reduce our carbon footprint and decrease our reliance on non-renewable energy sources. For every purchase of my solar panel, you are contributing to the effort of reducing the nation's carbon emissions and moving towards a more sustainable future. These panels are not just an investment in your home or business; they're an investment in the planet."

Michael went on to explain the technical specifications of the solar panels, emphasizing their durability, efficiency, and ease of installation. "We've worked hard to ensure that our products meet the highest standards and are accessible to as many people as possible. We believe that renewable energy should not be a luxury, but a standard for everyone."

He then addressed some common concerns and questions about solar energy, such as the initial cost, maintenance, and effectiveness during rainy or cloudy days. "Our team is dedicated to providing support and guidance every step of the way, from installation to maintenance. With advancements in technology, our panels are designed to maximize energy production, even under less-than-ideal weather conditions. The time to switch to renewable energy is not tomorrow; it's today. We have the opportunity to lead by example and make a significant impact on how energy is consumed and generated in the Philippines."

Concluding his speech, Michael was met with a round of applause that filled the event hall. "Now, if you have questions, please feel free to ask," Michael opened the floor for the audience, signaling the start of the Q&A session.

A hand shot up from the crowd, and a man stood up. "You mentioned the panels are efficient even on cloudy days. Can you elaborate on how effective they are in less sunny conditions?"

Michael nodded, appreciating the question. "Great question. Our solar panels are equipped with high-efficiency photovoltaic cells that can capture a broader spectrum of sunlight, including in low-light conditions. This means that even on cloudy days, the panels will generate electricity, though at a lower rate compared to bright, sunny days. We've tested them extensively in various weather conditions to ensure reliability."

Another attendee, a woman in the middle of the hall, raised her hand. "What about the maintenance of these panels? How often do they need to be checked or cleaned?"

"Our panels are designed with durability in mind," Michael responded. "They require minimal maintenance, mainly periodic cleaning to keep the surface clear of dust and debris, which could potentially block sunlight. We recommend a professional check-up every few years to ensure everything is functioning optimally, but generally, they're very low-maintenance."

A young man near the front asked, "How long is the warranty for your solar panels, and what does it cover?"

Michael smiled, "We offer a 25-year performance warranty, which guarantees that the panels will perform at no less than 80% of their original efficiency by the end of the 25th year. This warranty covers any defects in materials or workmanship that may arise."

As more questions came, Michael answered each with confidence and detail, ranging from technical inquiries about installation processes to financial questions regarding cost savings and return on investment. After the Q&A session concluded, Michael went backstage where Antoneitte and Bridget waited, raising a glass of champagne in celebration. "That was an excellent presentation, Michael. You've certainly captured the audience's attention," Bridget complimented. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Antoinette nodded in agreement. "Looks like we are going to empty all the solar panels today with the amount of interest we've seen."

"Yeah…we have brought five thousand solar panels for display and potential immediate sale, and judging by the interest, we might just sell out," Michael added, a hint of surprise and satisfaction in his voice. "This is beyond what we anticipated. Well, all the more reason to build more physical stores nationwide."

Antoneitte chimed in, "Absolutely, and this event has proven there's a significant demand for renewable energy solutions here. Expanding our retail presence will make it even easier for consumers to access our products and support the shift toward sustainable energy. I have spoken to some of my friends in real estate, wanting me to get your business into their commercial spaces. It's a golden opportunity for us to increase visibility and reach a wider audience."

"That's good news, Antoneitte. Partnering with real estate developers could indeed fast-track our expansion and make our solar panels more accessible. Let's explore those opportunities further and work out the logistics once we return to the office."

"Well, whatever you two do, you do you," Bridget interjected. "I'm going to enjoy myself here, care to join me, Michael?" 

"No problem."
