One Planet for Everyone! Building Science and Technology Civilization at the Beginning

Zhou Lei drove back to Donghai City. The main thing he came back was to build a foothold for his small company.

It is impossible to be a leather bag company all the time, a large amount of money will come in immediately, and equipment such as servers needs to be purchased, all of which need a complete financial system, otherwise, it will be a big deal just to settle accounts and pay taxes...

After visiting the rental situation of office buildings in different places for several days, he rented an office that can hold ten people in the Caohejing Development Zone.

Some people want to ask, since the factories are all located in Zhejiang Province, why don't small companies also go there. Why not go back to your hometown in the countryside to start a company?

First of all, when starting a company, you need to consider talents. Not all the people you like will follow you to a country without any supporting facilities. Although if you have money, you can build your own schools and hospitals, but how many people will come to work in a luxury hospital or school in your country, I am afraid that they will be doctors or teachers who are well-calculated in this county. What's more, there is still no money to the level of burning bags.

Secondly, when you have money, you can buy employees from the capital or central cities to help you work in the countryside, but how much money do you need to pay to meet their psychological price? Have you ever wondered about the local salary level? The human heart is never enough.

Again, is there an airport in your country? Is there a high-speed rail? Is there a deep water jetty? Just a low-grade highway! Then let's go quickly. To achieve convenient transportation, it is not something that a super company can do. It is impossible to move thieves and penguins together.

So Zhou Lei just flashed this idea in his mind and dismissed the decision to go back to his hometown to open a company. Although the company is now a little bigger than the booger, it will definitely need a large number of talents in the future to meet the needs of continuous development. Of course, under the premise that hackers continue to come up with products that surpass the current level of technology.

Recruited front desk, webmaster, assistant (handyman) and cashier on several job sites. Because the position of accountant is very important, a hero with three gangs, Zhou Lei called his good friend.

If the accountant's tricks are not good, it will bring about the former accountant Wang.

"Mr. Gao, where are you busy now?" Zhou Lei called Gao Xiaohua, who used to call him Xiaohua all the time.

"Oh, Mr. Zhou is so polite." Gao Xiaohua is about the same age as Zhou Lei, but his hair is much less than Zhou Lei's. He looks thirty-seven and eighteen, and is already bald to the back of his head.

"Talk to you."

"Let's talk, are you in the city?"

"Yes, are you out to eat at noon?"

"Okay, tell me a place, and I'll come over."

"You're not going to work today?" Zhou Lei asked.

"When the time comes, I'll go out."

Zhou Lei booked a box at the Phoenix Restaurant on the 5th floor of the Twin Towers. It started at 1,500 yuan. He couldn't afford it before, but now there is absolutely no problem.

Then he sent the address to Gao Xiaohua, and after struggling for a long time, he decided to take the subway. Driving is not as fast as the subway, and the city center is a road parking lot.

The subway arrived at the bottom of the twin towers in fifty minutes. Zhou Lei went upstairs and waited ten minutes in the private room on the fifth floor before Gao Xiaohua came in.

"Sit down." Zhou Lei greeted.

"Have you made a fortune recently?" Gao Xiaohua asked after looking at the furnishings in the private room.

"I got a little money, I'm working on a product recently. How is your company doing now?"

Gao Xiaohua heard the meaning and asked, "Do you want to invite me?"

"Yes, I started a small company and would like to invite you to be the chief financial officer."

"Fuck, every small company says it's the chief financial officer, isn't it an accountant?" Gao Xiaohua laughed scornfully.

Zhou Lei poured Gao Xiaohua a cup of tea, "That's right, it's an accountant position. If you come or not, you will be treated favorably."

"I have to think about it." Although the benefits of the company I work for are not very good, after all, I have been doing it for a lot of years.

"Don't think about it, I'll show you something." Zhou Lei took out his mobile phone and clicked on a few videos inside to show Gao Xiaohua.

After Gao Xiaohua read it, he patted his phone on the table and said, "When do you go to work?"

Zhou Lei touched the screen of his mobile phone distressedly, and replied, "It would be best to come to work within half a month, and I will be busy at the end of the month."

Gao Xiaohua thought for a while, "I guess I can report on the 15th."

After everyone was full, they drank tea and chatted in the private room, and finally left the Phoenix Restaurant before dinner, finally not delaying their business.

After returning home without raising Xiaohua, he wrote a letter of resignation overnight, waited for a few days to take over the shift, and then prepared to come to work in Zhou Lei's small company.

On May 15th, today is the official opening time of Sanshi Technology. In fact, everyone has been busy for almost two weeks. There is nothing in the new office. All kinds of purchases and supplies have finally been opened.

The company is too small, only the logo of "Three Stone Technology" is posted on the glass door outside the office. After entering the door, there is a high platform. The front desk is a little girl who has just graduated from vocational high school. Maybe she is just an adult, with a childish look on her face.

There is no partition, and there are eight open desks coming in. Zhou Lei sat in the innermost position, next to his newly recruited male assistant Chen Hui.

Why not a beauty Xiaomi? Crazy, no one who runs a serious company will come back with a vase, unless it is a rich second generation to play. If your mind is on this, it is guaranteed that you will fail in three years.

Gao Xiaohua and out

Na sat together, and the webmaster was sitting at the door near the front desk.

The position against the wall in the office is a row of filing cabinets and lockers. Because cash transactions are becoming less and less, so I bought a small safe.

Although the sparrow is small and complete, Zhou Lei's first task for the webmaster was to ask him to call the agents of several servers to inquire about the price.

Although there are several domestic servers doing well, Inspur and Huawei. But Zhou Lei doesn't like Huawei's management culture very much, and Huawei's server products are not his main business.

Zhou Lei also asked his former colleagues who worked at Inspur, and found that Inspur's minicomputers were ok, but the PC servers were still far behind.

He can only buy two fully equipped 42U cabinets, IBM 2U PC servers, and one cabinet for APP hard disk storage. A total of 40 servers share storage space through Inifiband switches. This nearly 12 million investment, if you add the rental of the telecommunications room, there will be several million more every year.

There is really no money to go directly to the IBM Power series, and the expensive ones want to die.

The subsequent expansion plan is to buy some GPU computing modules from Lao Huang, plug them into the server, and immediately turn the computing performance a few somersaults.

At that time, the SuSE system will be installed to build a cluster environment, which should temporarily meet the needs of hackers.

The money can be received within three months, because the recent increase in orders has exceeded 15,000. This is only the effect of the exhibition. If the media evaluation comes out in a few days, there will definitely be a wave of large orders.

So after the factory has sent the money, you can start preparing to spend it.

Although Gao Xiaohua had some doubts about this expense, Zhou Lei told him that this was the equipment purchased for the company's R\u0026D personnel and could be included in the company's cost, so he had no doubts.

After several days of business negotiation, the three integrators became a dog. For the order of 10 million yuan, they have pressed the quotation to the limit, and they hardly made any money. What they are looking for is a long-term maintenance contract, and a maintenance contract is a long-term list. As long as it is taken down, the company can survive in this highly competitive IT integration circle, and only by surviving can it continue to pursue a better life.

In the end, Zhou Lei selected a company with the most technical staff. Although the quoted price is not the lowest, it seems that the technical force is the strongest, and their employee turnover rate is extremely low, which also represents the working atmosphere of this company. Very nice.

The effective time of the contract was postponed to the end of June, when the first payment will come in, which is just the first payment for the order. It can be slowed down later. According to the arrangement of the factory, by the end of 20th, there will be more than 100 workers and an outsourced assembly plant to help with production. By then, the output will exceed 65,000 pieces per month.

But Zhou Lei felt that Zhang Jie would be crazy by then, and the monthly output could not meet the market demand at all. There are almost 13 million visually impaired people of all kinds, and this is only in China. If you count the number in the world, you need to multiply by 4. What's more, there are more used as toys.

But let a small industrialist eat such a big list in one fell swoop, he has scared himself. So Zhou Lei let him go. The only thing he can do well is to coax the big hackers, update the microcode and add new functions.

A technology anchor, Brother Tofu, has millions of fans. With his sharp unboxing comments, he has attracted many loyal fans. Too many manufacturers love and hate him. If he is praised, the sales will double immediately. If he is despised, no one may care.

Today is May 17th, just after 6 pm on Tuesday, the anchor brother Tofu started another wave of unboxing activities.

Brother Tofu is wearing a tight-fitting small suit, which stretched out all the flesh on his stomach. He is this greasy style, with a somewhat prairie-colored top hat, sitting in front of the camera and bragging with the water friends.

"Dear friends, I have a good thing to unpack today. Guess what, deduct 1 for the phone, 2 for the audio, and 3 for the others."

After a few seconds, the whole screen is full of 1s, and only a few are 3s.

"Hey, it looks like they all guessed wrong. Only a few old irons guessed 3. There are no new mobile phones released recently. If you ask me to open it, I can't open it."

In the barrage area, there was a sneer. Brother Tofu has too little face to get the latest mobile phone with its own chip from a major manufacturer. It is said that the color is very good.

Brother Tofu smirked a few times: "Then some of the mobile phones are that the anchor will open the box, but the color is changed, and it is not a krypton game. It's nothing to mess with. If you miss it tonight, I won't send the unboxing video. to the Internet."

When the water friends heard it, they dared to attack people, and there was another commotion in the barrage area.
