Samsung is cursed

by on14 September 2016


The Gods have spoken and the ground shakes

Samsung appears to have hacked off the gods – first its Note 7 batteries start exploding and now the ground is literally being pulled from under its feet.

An earthquake has forced Samsung to halt the production line for the precision mould it uses to create the small plastic casing for its smartphones in its manufacturing plant located in Gumi, South Korea.

Apparently the main assembly line for smartphone production is not broken and can continue to operate without interruption, though.

However, Samsung was left with no other choice than to temporarily pause the actions of three facilities that have equipment to print chip circuits in Giheung and Hwasung.

Samsung said it had been able to resume all operations after a safety inspection yesterday without incurring major losses. If you ever play Total War Rome, now is about the time that you sacrifice a white bull. After all when your closest rival has just released an inferior phone.
