Jiuzhou Automobile Factory, newly built office building.
On the twenty-sixth floor, in the chairman's office, Xu Yifan stood in front of the office's huge floor-to-ceiling window.
In front of us is the entire huge Jiuzhou Automobile Industrial Park. As far as the eye can see, a huge space is filled with various functional areas of Jiuzhou Automobile.
Comprehensive automobile R&D center, materials laboratory, the original Jiuzhou Automobile Factory, Hengxin Battery Factory, Jiuyuan Electric Vehicle, outside the factory areas, employee rest areas, activity areas, etc., are still there in the distance. in newly built factories and laboratories.
In the newly renovated luxurious office on the top floor of the current factory building, Xu Yifan couldn't help but feel emotional.
"It has been maintaining such rapid development for a long time. From a small factory with a few dozen employees, the number of employees has now exceeded 50,000, and it is still expanding at a high speed. It will even develop faster in the future!"
"Jiuzhou Motors has gone from a situation where no consumers were willing to choose it to now where more and more consumers are vying to buy it. As more pure electric or hybrid models enter the market, Dongfang Electric Power Company and the supporting facilities for new energy trams Development will also be faster.”
"Next, while maintaining the rapid development of Jiuzhou Auto, we will also have money to do more things, develop new technologies, and enter new fields."
As his mind moved, the system panel appeared in front of him, reflecting the factory area behind the glass windows.

Even after the recent period of crazy spending on technology, as the products of Jiuzhou Automobile and its brands continue to sell well, the company's book funds are constantly rising.
"These funds, within a certain period of time, will be enough for Kyushu Motor to fully develop technology and maintain unprecedented rapid development, as long as Kyushu Motor's products do not experience a sharp decline in sales."
“Every time I see so many available funds, I feel a special sense of satisfaction. I have food in hand and don’t panic!”
"To a certain extent, I have fulfilled my previous dream. If I want to develop any technology, I can spend money on it, give lucky charms to the R&D personnel, find reliable foreign aid, etc., and quickly complete a technological breakthrough. "
“In the past, Kyushu Automobile could only develop the more important technologies due to lack of funds, such as battery technology, motor technology, electronic control technology, three-electric system, and later engine hybrid technology.
Breakthroughs are made one after another, and the technology completed through research and development is continuously used to generate revenue, maintain the development of new technologies, employee benefits, etc. "
“But from now on, Jiuzhou Auto will have money, and technology research and development will be fully blossomed. Of course, important technologies will be prioritized for research and development, but during the research and development process, we can spend money unscrupulously and come up with important technologies faster.
At the same time, except for the most important technologies, all other details will be perfected and the reproduced products will be a huge leap forward compared to the same type of products! "
"The number of employees exceeds 60,000, and there are a large number of high-star talents among them. Five-star talents are everywhere, and there are as many four-star talents as dogs!
Of course, six-star talents are still very rare. Seven-star talents have not been seen yet, and I don’t know what they will be like. World-renowned experts in a certain field? "
"In addition to those high-star talents, ordinary employees are also carefully selected and can be perfectly qualified for their jobs. There is no such thing as taking advantage of others or not being qualified for their jobs!"
Reasonable arrangements for employees have always been Xu Yifan's constant check of the system to see what work needs to be done, and either promote certain employees, fire certain employees, or even send some to jail for bad ones.
Like a piercing eye, he has meticulous control over the entire company, and also makes the old employees know an iron rule: do your job well, don't reach out, otherwise you will be caught!
After years of continuous combing, we will eliminate some employees who are not qualified for their jobs or have minor behaviors, so that the entire factory can run more smoothly and employees will feel more comfortable working and living there.
At the beginning, Xu Yifan felt that this system was not very fancy, and that it could not use technology from outside, nor could it directly create products. But now with continuous use, it feels that this system is getting better and better to use!
“As Jiuzhou Motors continues to develop and innovate in the automotive field, produces excellent products one after another, and is recognized by domestic and foreign consumers, employees’ satisfaction and recognition of Jiuzhou Technology are also getting higher and higher. This is A sense of belonging to a big factory?”
“Leading domestic companies in the automobile industry, with their high wages and remuneration, have been able to attract domestic talents in all related fields, making them the first choice for everyone to graduate or change jobs. Even those high-tech talents from the international level are constantly flocking to Jiuzhou Technology. "
"Now it is no longer as difficult as it was to attract top R&D personnel."
The system panel below funds and employees is for construction and product technology. Compared with the previous two data, the text in it is numerous and complex.
Xu Yifan still remembers the original factory system, and he could describe the technology of the entire factory in just a few words.
The system panel in front of him now requires thousands of words to describe, in order to describe the buildings owned by the factory, the technology that has been developed, the technology that is under development, etc.
The large number of buildings has reached hundreds, including various buildings in the Jiuzhou Science and Technology Park in Jiangzhou City today, as well as automobile production bases and newly built electric vehicle production bases purchased in the past two years across the country. etc.
At the same time, with the abundant funds, the laboratory has more money to purchase the world's top equipment and materials. With higher-level R&D personnel in charge of the work and continuous improvement of the test environment, the building level has been improved again.
The complicated system panel gives you the feeling of being in a divine costume after playing a game at an advanced stage. Every time you see it, you can't help but smile.
"In terms of construction, it can be considered a major factory in the domestic automobile field with all kinds of buildings."
Behind the building, there is a long text description about products and technology.
Of course, there is no need to say much about the products. It is mainly about automobiles, adding motor power systems, battery packs, etc. purchased by other car companies.
Then there are technologies that have been developed or are being developed.
Generally speaking, the technology reserves and research and development of Jiuzhou Automobile today are still mainly related to new energy electric vehicles.
However, with today's technological breakthroughs one after another, Kyushu Automobile has gradually become the world's top automobile company in terms of car manufacturing technology. Investment in technology research and development in this area can be slightly slowed down.
Nowadays, in addition to the slightly sci-fi autonomous driving, the focus of research and development now has another focus of research and development, and that is technology related to smartphones!
In the next few years, the mobile phone business will definitely be the center of the topic in the technology field.
With the strong rise of iPhone, it has redefined the functions of mobile phones and changed people's living habits.
It can make money, and it is also high-tech. How can it be without Jiuzhou Technology!
After carefully checking the research and development progress of various technologies, Xu Yifan clicked on several technologies that were stuck in research and development bottlenecks.
[Whether to spend 12 million yuan to accelerate the research and development of (smartphone operating system) technology]
【whether】
【yes! 】Xu Yifan confirmed without hesitation!
[Whether to spend 18 million yuan to accelerate the research and development of (chip manufacturing) technology]
【yes! 】
【yes! 】
【yes! 】
In terms of operating systems, with a cost of more than 10 million, Xu Yifan needs to click on it almost every two or three days, and the technology research and development progress that can be promoted is about one percent.
In the past, such funds were enough to make a major breakthrough in a certain technology. For example, the initial lithium iron phosphate battery only required a few million to achieve rapid progress in research and development.
However, now that Jiuzhou Auto has money, just throw it at them!
His eyes stayed on the funds and several technologies that required a tyrant for a second, and he recorded the required funds and envy with his photographic memory.
Next, Xu Yifan only needs to approve a document and let the incentive fund review and inspection team distribute the funds, and then he can give the R&D personnel of these R&D teams a collective hegemony in a short period of time.
Compared with normal R&D, the R&D speed of spending money is dozens of times faster!
"At this rate of research and development, Jiuzhou Technology's mobile phone business will be completed in just a few months. Perhaps we can release Jiuzhou Technology's mobile phones at the same time as the iPhone 4S is released."
"While purchasing most of the parts, we will also start self-development plans for cameras, communication chips and other parts."
"On the other hand, screen technology is a very important technology for mobile phones. Because we were planning to enter the mobile phone field after the completion of the automotive business, Jiuzhou Technology has been researching and developing it, and now there are some small results."
"In addition, in terms of battery, fast charging technology, etc., it is all put together. It feels much more reliable than Xiaomi and the like!"
"As for the operating system of mobile phones, I originally thought that if I were to do mobile phone business, I would use an operating system based on Android. After modifications and optimizations, it would be able to surpass the systems of domestic mobile phone manufacturers in recent years and become the leader in domestic mobile phone operating systems. .”
“But now that I have money, it’s so cool to use my own system!”
“Moreover, today’s mobile phone systems are far from as complete as those developed later, and Kyushu’s operating system also has the opportunity to become a top mobile phone operating system.
Or if the system catches up with the iPhone in a short period of time, it is not impossible for the system to use krypton gold to increase the dominance of the developers! "
"It's just two years later than iPhone or Android that we entered the field of mobile phone smart operating systems, but we are cheating and spending one or two billion in funds, even if there is only one four-year-old R&D developer of these operating systems. Star R&D personnel can also develop results comparable to those of top experts."
"Moreover, the operating system of mobile phones is now more focused on the software ecosystem. The programmers in the software laboratory, plus some excellent software provided by me, will allow everyone to use the mobile phone ten years in advance. Software and games!”
"There is no need to come up with any black technology or nano-chip products from the beginning. It just needs to be a little bit better than domestic mobile phones and the iPhone."
"And with the research and development speed of Jiuzhou Technology, there is no shortage of funds now and we can advance the research and development progress as quickly as possible. There will be no problem in reaching the performance of mobile phones in the next ten years in one or two years."
"Let Jiuzhou Technology make more money through its automobile and mobile phone businesses, and then invest the money in the research and development of new technologies."
"Perhaps after the mobile phone, with this large amount of funds, we can really start to develop technological products that are not available in the other world."
"If the automotive business continues to advance steadily, in a year or two, there is a great chance that it will become the leader in the international automotive field. By then, the system will be upgraded again. I don't know what new functions will be included in this upgrade. Woolen cloth?"
As Jiuzhou Auto has entered into rapid development, its reputation and product quality have been recognized by consumers, and sales have continued to rise.
But those international car companies will not just watch Kyushu Automobile continue to develop!
