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

In the next few days, Zhou Lei rarely went to the company, and mostly dealt with business affairs by email or phone call. In the rest of the time, I would accompany Yang Xiaoyao to wander around, shopping everywhere.

Yang Xiaoyao also vented her anger, anyway, you big fool have plenty of money, so just pick the expensive ones and buy them.

Zhou Lei no longer has any concept of money, money is now a number. The credit card with a limit of tens of thousands of yuan that he had opened a long time ago was maxed out, so he just swiped the current card directly, and he probably didn't know how much money was in it.

When the 11th day of the lunar calendar came, it was time for Yang Xiaoyao to start worrying. Almost the living room at home is full of packaging bags. It is impossible to move all the hand-chopping shopping these days. I can only pick some out and deal with the rest when I come next time.

Zhou Lei had a serious talk with Xiaoyao, and he hoped that Xiaoyao could resign as a teacher as soon as possible. But she was rejected by Xiaoyao. She still has half a year to take this group of graduating students to the college entrance examination. She can't affect these students' studies because of her own reasons. She wants to make plans after the college entrance examination. The same Also give everyone a little time to think, after all, this is related to the future.

Yang Xiaoyao doesn't want to rely on Zhou Lei and be a rice bug all the time, that kind of life is not what she wants.

But for Zhou Lei, it is not easy to find a woman who suits his heart and cares about him, and he doesn't want to let go easily. All this has nothing to do with money, enough money occupies only a small place in married life. In love, money is even less important. Of course, in the eyes of those who worship money, only money is the only one.

Yang Xiaoyao didn't come home with a full load, she just squeezed out of the corner of her suitcase and took away a little bit of shopping spoils. Zhou Lei stuffed the rest in the closet of the guest room, and the two of them didn't even unpack it.

Xiaoyao rejected Zhou Lei's request to send her back, and she only sent him to the high-speed railway station.

"Take care of yourself!" Zhou Lei whispered to Yang Xiaoyao.

"Understood, you too." Yang Xiaoyao put on high heels and was no shorter than Zhou Lei, so she didn't need to stand on tiptoe, and kissed Zhou Lei's face.

Zhou Lei foolishly touched her face, which still had a trace of warmth and fragrance, and stood at the ticket gate, watching her carefully get off the elevator pushing the overweight suitcase. I really want to buy a train ticket right away and follow along.

At this time, I remembered the phone, and my father called. He and Wang Cong have already arrived at Lanpu's factory, and he lives in Wang Cong's place.

"Son, I have already come to RAMPF, and I am going to visit the factory and your robot in the afternoon."

"I'll come over this afternoon, too."

"Is Xiaoyao still there? Don't you need to accompany her?"

"She just went back, and I took her on the train."

"Okay then, you should come over this afternoon. I'll see you at the factory." The old man is impatient and doesn't want to waste any time.

Zhou Lei checked the time, and it was almost noon, so he took the car and drove directly to Rampu's factory.

I want to accompany the old man to visit the factory building and construction site. He was born as an old robot and knows everything about the factory building.

Then I have to ask Wang Cong to sort out the factory's affairs, recruit people when they need to be recruited, and can't support a few managers and then do nothing. The number of security drones here is going crazy. After all, the market is limited, and no market for high-tech products is a dead end. This amount is only a day or two for the factory. The rest of the time is idle as hell.

The car drove into the factory, and the security guards at the gate saw the boss's car coming, and they stood at attention and saluted from afar, not knowing which sycophant did it. Zhou Lei didn't ask them to do this at all, it wasn't necessary, and they weren't in the army. As long as they do a good job of patrolling and anti-theft, they will not be replaced by automatic patrol drones and artificial intelligence.

Parked the car downstairs of the small office building and went up the stairs next to it. There are some factory department managers and a cashier in the office building. They have not been assigned accountants for the time being. In fact, the factories do not have independent accounting authority, and they are all under the name of Sanshi Technology for the time being. But in the future, Zhou Lei will gradually separate the factory, which may become a huge cluster of manufacturing factories.

The old man was sitting in Wang Cong's office looking at the documents, while Wang Cong was approving some documents, and clumsily pressed his big fingers on the computer with one finger Zen.

As soon as Zhou Lei came in, he yelled, "Dad, have you had lunch yet?"

The old man took off his presbyopic glasses and said, "Not yet, I'll go right away."

"Let's go together, I didn't eat either."

Wang Cong raised his head and said, "Mr. Zhou, wait in the small restaurant next door."

"Brother Cong, you should call me by my name. Call me Mr. Zhou, and you will get goosebumps."

"Okay, I'll still call you by your name, and follow the rules when there are many people." Wang Cong is also a smart person who is thick but subtle.

The old man smiled and said nothing, which is very important. If Wang Cong doesn't wink, and still use the previous address when there are many people, it will have some impact on Zhou Lei's authority. People are also afraid that Wang Cong will use his status as Zhou Lei's friend to mess around.

Wang Cong locked the office and took the two oldest uncles downstairs to eat in a small restaurant outside the factory.

He ordered six dishes according to the old man's favorite taste, one soup, and then served a large bowl of rice.

Zhou Lei looked around and saw that there were no people around, and then said: "Brother Cong, you will have a heavy task next. The first product we will launch after the new year is a drone that focuses on taking pictures. There must be enough The source of goods, you have to beat the friends and merchants to the ground in one breath, no

It can give them a chance to stand up, so my plan is to prepare 500,000 units first. "

"Zhou Lei, I don't know much about the UAV market, but the backlog of funds for the 500,000 stock is not a small amount."

"I roughly estimated that the cost of each unit is about 1,000 yuan, and it is still the case that we have installed the best parts and the best customized lithium battery. Even if it is 2,000 yuan, it will require a cost backlog of about 100 million yuan. In addition, I plan to use 50 million for advertising. Plus 1,000 prototypes will be sent out for testing.”

The old man almost drank the tea up his nose, and his son's breath was definitely much stronger than his own back then.

"As long as the company has financial support, I have absolutely no problem here."

"It will probably be divided into several pieces. I have asked Zhang Jie to cut the plastic mold. He can try the mold in about 20 days. It should be the end of March when it is finalized. But the lithium battery still needs to send people to negotiate. Customized motors, our previous cooperative manufacturers are not bad, but the scale is too small. I plan to put part of the production capacity on them, and the other part will free up a few mechanical arms and buy some winding machines for motors, and put them here Do."

"That shouldn't be a problem." Wang Cong paused, and after the boss left with the good food, he continued: "Parts like this kind of high-tech content and repetitive labor, after our factory building is built, You can do it yourself, and the cost can be reduced by at least half. Forget about plastic parts, and buying an injection molding machine is too big, and it is enough to place three or four mechanical arms.”

"The circuit boards will also be found by manufacturers. The pollution is too great. There are basically no qualified foundries in Donghai City. I plan to send them back to my hometown."

"Then your logistics cost will be relatively high, and these parts need to be pulled up from below."

"It's not bad. Compared with the price of the product, it's a drop in the bucket." Zhou Lei decided to set the price at 4999, using high-end functions to grab the mid-to-high-end market.

The palm-shaped gadget is left to the friends to play with. In the absence of breakthroughs in lithium batteries, this battery life is just a toy.

Zhou Lei stopped for a few minutes, he was a little hungry, and after finishing a bowl of rice, he slowly continued the topic just now.

"So Brother Cong, you need to recruit some packaging workers back as soon as possible. Now there are too few robotic arms, so they can't be used for packaging. The workers must arrive at least in April."

"What about the outer packaging and foam of this product?"

"This is still for me to send a small letter. He opened a printing company in the development zone in the nearby district, and he also makes these lists."

"That's basically nothing. It seems that I, the factory manager, is just a fool. You helped me arrange things."

"I don't care about these things in the future. You will help me manage these outsourcing units in the future. Just do whatever you want. You can't ignore quality because of face problems."

Wang Cong nodded and said, "I know this. Without quality, no matter how good the technology is, it won't work."

The old man didn’t eat fast because of his bad teeth, and after he finished the soup in the bowl, he said, “Your brother Cong is right, I’d rather slow down the production and ensure that every product is a high-quality product after leaving the factory.” .”

Dad, I said this first, why did I only praise Brother Cong alone?

Zhou Lei muttered in his heart, "Dad, what do you think?"

"My opinion? Nothing else, I just want to know when I can see your robot."

"Let's go," Zhou Lei found that the old man was still impatient.

The three of them entered the factory gate and went directly to the two factories.

One of them is for machining, and today there are already workers working in it, and several CNC machines are processing some precision parts. The others are conventional machine tools, and a few workers are doing maintenance for the time being.

The old man went over to look at the processed parts, picked up the vernier caliper next to it to measure it, and nodded in satisfaction.

"The skills of these workers are not bad," the old man said.

"We paid a lot of money to bring them back, which is 20% higher than the market price." Zhou Lei thinks that skilled workers also get what they pay for. Hard to find, there are plenty of people with two legs who are critical in their views.

Huayuan grew up too fast. In forty years, the economy has changed from the bottom to the world's number one economic power. In fact, several generations have used their own cheap labor to push it up. Now the demographic dividend is getting smaller and smaller. The skilled workers who used to enter the factory at the age of 20 are now 60 years old.

Too many business owners will start thinking at this time and fire these old guys who are paid high wages and can't work overtime. This is simply a cancer.
