On the outskirts of Magic City, there is a modern automobile factory.
Li Yuan inspected the area carefully, spending more than four hours. Finally, he asked Li Lanlan beside him with a smile: "Lan Lan, what is the designed production capacity here?"
"200,000 vehicles are operating at full capacity."
"Not enough, at least 500,000 units. Including SUV models. This should be one of the most important production bases."
Li Lanlan secretly rolled her eyes. I still want 5 million units, but is there such a big demand in the market? The current total number of global orders is just over 20,000 units, which is not as good as Toyota's annual hybrid sales volume.
Li Lanlan didn't know, but Li Yuan was actually quite satisfied. If two more smaller production bases were built in China, the annual output would be able to reach 1 million vehicles, basically meeting domestic demand. Overseas production bases would need to continue
layout. But this matter cannot be rushed. The IPO financing only raised a few hundred million US dollars.
"Brother, why aren't you worried? The stock price of our car factory has fallen sharply?"
"There's nothing to be anxious about. Our family doesn't need to make a living through stock trading."
"That's not right. How can you disclose the patent? Do you know how much effort we put into it? You just flushed it into the toilet."
"Haha. That's a good metaphor!" Li Yuanhun smiled nonchalantly, "I didn't go to college in vain, and it sounds like I'm very well-educated. Hahaha!"
"Don't be kidding, I'm anxious to death. Seeing how money is flowing out every day, I'm starting to worry and can't sleep."
It’s no wonder that Li Lanlan is worried. For example, a car manufacturer’s huge turnover is really up to several million per second. Once the situation cannot be opened, it will face a huge deficit.
Li Yuan smiled and explained: "You don't have to worry at all. The current difficulties are temporary."
"temporary?"
"The key now is the configuration of charging piles. We still need to solve the charging problem of electric vehicles. But we cannot rely on us to build such a network. All manufacturers must work together. That's why I will disclose the patent to let more people
people are entering this industry.”
"But more people? Aren't they asking for trouble and looking for competitors?"
"We have never thought about eating alone, and it is impossible for us to eat alone. Don't think so much, let's solve the problem of production first!"
"Isn't that right? If there is no order, what production volume is required?"
"Without production, the cost of purchasing parts cannot be reduced, and the price is high, so there will be no orders."
"No, I have confused you. Isn't this a matter of the chicken first and then the egg? What on earth do you think? I don't understand."
"So, you are just a working girl, and I am an entrepreneur with first-class vision and forward thinking. Without further ado, let's go home first! Mom must be waiting impatiently, right?"
"Hey, here you go again. You can't explain clearly. Mom can't care about you right now. She and Uncle Jiang are celebrating."
"No matter how much we celebrate, why don't we go home for dinner? Let's go! Uncle Jiang's whole family should be coming over today, so let's get together..."
"..."
Regarding Qinglong Automobile's business strategy, Li Yuan still adopts the method of all-round cost reduction, introducing various domestic manufacturers, and jointly involving electric vehicles to the extreme.
As for the future competition of Qinglong Automobile? It mainly depends on its own technology. If you have the most advanced technology, there will be no big problem. Besides, even if the competition fails and the meat rots in the pot, Li Yuan will not care. He doesn't care anymore.
So there are one or two industries.
…
When I arrived at my home in Shanghai, it was indeed full of joy, the children were playing lively, and the women were equally happy and busy in the kitchen.
This time I came to Magic City mainly because of the listing of Tree of Life on the Shanghai Stock Exchange. As the CEO of Tree of Life, Shen Jiang's face was glowing today. When he saw Li Yuan, he happily greeted: "Yuanzi, you have fulfilled your mission!"
The closing price of Tree of Life on the first day reached 43 yuan!”
"So high?" Li Yuan was also a little surprised. No matter how high-tech it is, Tree of Life is still an agricultural stock, right?
"It's still because you are a major shareholder. The securities companies said that many investors believe in you and think that you will not commit fraud. Hahaha!"
"..."
Li Yuan was speechless. If you really want to say it, it is impossible not to play word games in the IPO declaration materials, right? But how miserable are the domestic investors? If the word games are good, almost all of them are false reports? Who can withstand this?
It’s too late for the leeks to grow, right?
"Yuanzi, I suddenly have a feeling that my merits have been fulfilled. Did the teachers in the school suddenly become rich? Aren't they supposed to be very poor? In the past, every meal at home had to be eaten with a pinch of salt. How did it become like this?
a ha ha ha!"
Shen Jiang's daughter rolled her eyes: "Is there no meat to eat at your farmers' conference? When I was a child, I heard that some people deliberately killed those pigs and sheep in order to eat meat?"
"That's not true. Just take a few more anatomy classes. Ahem." Shen Jiang felt that this topic could not be continued, otherwise it would become darker and darker. "Let's not talk about this. Anyway, the conditions are now better. Back then, it was
Even if you don’t have money, you can still guarantee a bite to eat.”
Mom Zhang Zhen was also delighted: "Lao Shen, you also have to thank the Tree of Life for its listing. Otherwise you would have retired long ago."
"Well, there's no point in sitting around at home. It's just that strange feeling, why are we suddenly rich?"
Li Yuan smiled and said: "Uncle Jiang, this is what it should be. You who are engaged in scientific research should have money. We are not in the age of tightening our belts."
"That's right! I can work for the country for many more years. I will build Tree of Life into the most important agricultural company in the world. Hahaha..."
Not to mention that Shen Jiang was going crazy with excitement. Xiaoxuan's father smiled and chatted with Li Yuan: "Yuanzi, I heard that your drone has received very good reviews from the outside world."
"It's not bad! Are your troops using it too?"
"It's not equipped yet. But I heard it has been tested."
"Forget about this kind of monkey version of civilian equipment. You should do more research on the military field."
"That's right. Do you have any newly developed drone projects?"
"Yes! There seems to be a fixed-wing drone project. Logistics drone, right? For air mail."
"Logistics drone? What are the technical parameters?"
"The flight distance is 5,000 kilometers, the continuous flight time is 35 hours, and the load capacity is 1.5 tons!"
"Ah?" Xiaoxuan's father was shocked. This kind of technical data: "Yuanzi, you have been flying for 35 hours without landing?"
"Of course not landing. It's a drone!"
"Then how much does it cost to manufacture?"
"The cost of the request I made to them should be within 2 million!"
"Ah? 2 million soft girl coins?"
"It must be Soft Girl Coin! Do you use U.S. dollars in China? Once you arrive at your destination, you will drop it directly by parachute. The cost of air transportation across the country will be an order of magnitude lower..."
"Wait a minute." Xiao Xuan's father felt a little dizzy, "You want to airdrop? Just 2 million? Do you think this is not an unmanned bomber?"
"Haha, I have never been in the arms business."
"I understand. You are a civilian. I understand. But I will definitely report it to the army. You need to keep it confidential."
"Damn it! I finally broke up with your army, what do you want to do? Are you even interested in a model like mine?"
"Haha. Yuanzi, you are no longer sensitive. Haven't you noticed? Your technological innovations have caught up with the army's scientific research projects?"
"Haha. I can't control that much. It's all the technicians down there who are messing around. Hahaha."
Li Yuan pretended to be nonchalant, but he was actually deliberately leading the direction of technology. Since the current unmanned technology is not yet popular, many people still hold on to that traditional concept.
But in just a few years, we will be able to see how many revolutionary innovations there are in unmanned technology, especially in the field of drones.
This includes the military field. Its biggest feature is that it is cheap and easy to use.
As Li Yuan said before - as long as it is cheap enough, it is high technology!
…
When the table was filled with dishes, the family happily began to eat and drink.
To be honest, it’s really nice to have this Tree of Life restaurant, and the food can definitely be guaranteed, including those very precious things from all over the world.
In fact, in terms of development prospects, Tree of Life is definitely not bad.
With the improvement of domestic consumption levels, the big foodie empire has finally exposed its "greedy" side. As long as it is good, it can be eaten all over the world.
In the development of these years, Tree of Life has formed several major departments of business, including the import and export of agricultural products and seafood.
Go shopping for those "unwanted" things all over the world to meet the increasingly strong domestic demand. Such second-tier dealers alone are enough to ensure rapid development in recent years. Not to mention, backed by the Agricultural University, there are many agricultural
Cutting-edge scientific research project.
"Dad, these shrimps are delicious."
"I want to eat this piece of meat."
"Hey, what is this? Are sea cucumbers also found in foreign countries?"
"Did you see that? This piece of fish meat comes from deep-sea fish. The oil on it..."
"..."
Amidst the laughter, the whole family enjoyed the meal.
Finally, when the meal was almost done, Li Yuan held a cup of tea: "Mom, your craftsmanship is getting worse and worse now? Are you still the same old heavy oil and salt? Trying to put chili peppers in it? Don't you know how to make it lighter?"
"Do you like it or not?" Zhang Zhen glared, "I know how to cook. Do you have the ability to cook for yourself?"
"See? You don't even have any modesty now?"
While laughing loudly, Shen Jiang nodded: "Yuanzi, don't tell me, this is what we were good at back then. If your mother can put in enough ingredients, that's already considered a good skill."
Li Yuan was right when he thought about it. In the farmhouse that he opened in his previous life, his mother still put in enough flavor. It was still popular with many people. At least it proved that the ingredients were genuine.
"Yuanzi." Gu Yuqin asked with a smile, "Magic City is not fun at all, there are not even any attractions. Where should we go to play these days?"
"There are too many nearby. Suzhou and Hangzhou are also available? But our country's tourism services are just like that!"
"That's right! Customers are being ripped off everywhere. Sometimes you can't find satisfactory service."
"The key point is that we have too many people. There are tourists everywhere, and they are not afraid of no business. They don't need to improve the service quality at all to make a lot of money."
"Hey, then should we set up a professional service company? The kind that has service points in every scenic spot."
"This kind of thing is outdated now. We need to go to the Internet and build a sharing platform."
"I don't understand this? What does the Internet have to do with services?"
"Of course it does matter. The key is to get financing. With money, what can't be done?"
"That's true. Are you interested in starting one together?"
"Let Yuanyuan do the errands! He is familiar with this kind of crooked things. And he can also invest..."
"..."
In just a few words, a group of people chattered and started starting a business. Li Yuan was stunned when he heard this.
Just at this time, someone called:
"Mr. Li, we have been notified that you need to attend a hearing."
"Huh? They are so lenient? Why are you looking for me? What is it about?"
Li Yuan frowned slightly. As soon as he heard the word "hearing", it was obvious that it must be those members of Yingjiang who had eaten too much.
"That's about our technical issues. They expressed doubts that we couldn't study these at all. So we were suspected of stealing their technical secrets."
"oh!"
It was the same thing again, Li Yuan looked calm: "Let's arrange for the president of the American branch to go! I won't participate. Let him discuss it carefully with the company's lawyer."
Hearings like this are generally voluntary, but if you don't go, it may leave a very bad impression.
But does Li Yuan care about this impression? No matter how he behaves, even if he kneels down and licks those congressmen, he will still find fault with them in the end. In this case, why waste time?
Moreover, in such a hearing, the person also has the "right to remain silent."
In many European and American film and television dramas, you should be aware of this "Law of Silence", right?
But people who are not familiar with it may not know it. After announcing "remain silent", you must not continue to speak, otherwise you will give up this right.
In other words, the person questioning you will do everything possible to provoke your emotions, just to provoke you into talking, and then take the opportunity to get a confession that is unfavorable to you.
Don’t think it’s easy, and don’t think those congressmen won’t be abusive. Sometimes you really can’t help it!
So here, Li Yuan simply arranged for the American CEO to deal with those troublesome politicians.
What makes Li Yuan strange is that Ying Jiang's reaction seems to be very fast? Have they finally felt that they have encountered challenges in the high-tech field? So are they starting to use off-board moves now?
Thinking of this, Li Yuan became more cautious. From now on, he should stay in the country honestly!
Don't be like the person in the Chrysanthemum Factory in the original history line, who was kept for several years? Then there's no point in that?
Anyway, the layout of various industries is ready, and what follows is nothing more than step-by-step. It’s better not to take risks! Continue to be a happy homebody!
"Hey, Yuanyuan, what are you thinking about? Are you so entranced?"
"Oh, Mom, it's nothing. I'm just too tired recently. Let's rest at home for some time!"
