In order to cooperate with the normal use of the LIP lens-type information processor, Shi Lei proposed the design of a bracelet-type wearable device, and proposed a number of modification plans for the first-generation super source designed by Dong Guoguo.
Dong Guoguo thought about the modification plan proposed by Shi Lei for a moment, and his eyes lit up. The originally bland first-generation super source equipment would become full of fashion and technology after undergoing the modification plan mentioned by Shi Lei.
feel.
In the era of 2007, anodized aviation aluminum-magnesium alloy almost did not appear in the field of electronic consumer products. This very textured material, if made into a super source casing, would indeed look very futuristic.
"Old Dong, how do you plan to design a bracelet-type wearable device?" Shi Lei did not explain directly, but asked Dong Guoguo.
Everyone has their own ideas. Although Shi Lei's vision transcends this era, who can guarantee that Dong Guoguo doesn't have outstanding design ideas?
Dong Guoguo also understood what Shi Lei meant. Shi Lei allowed him to express his ideas freely, and then integrated the best parts of their designs into a bracelet-type wearable device.
Just like the first generation super source equipment, Dong Guoguo proposed the original design and Shi Lei made modifications.
"Boss, I think the appearance design of a bracelet-type wearable device is not too difficult. The key is, how should we design the internal things? Not only should we integrate the mobile phone baseband SOC chip, but also integrate a large-capacity battery.
Pedometers, heart rate monitors, etc. Moreover, due to the shape limitations of the bracelet, after we have highly integrated various devices, it is not easy to replace the battery of the bracelet."
Shi Lei frowned. Dong Guoguo was right. Even with future bracelet-type and watch-type wearable devices, the biggest problem is battery life.
If it cannot be designed into a replaceable battery design, the super source of wearable device design and battery life will be a big problem.
"Old Dong, I'll leave this matter to you! For appearance design, you can refer to the long strip design. Don't exceed the thickness and width. As for the production materials, you can experiment a lot yourself and try to make various engineering versions.
, we will determine the specific issues at that time." Although Shi Lei knew the appearance of later products, the internal situation was not clear.
Therefore, the main person involved in the design of wearable devices was Dong Guoguo, and Shi Lei only made some suggestions.
"Okay!" Dong Guoguo responded with some helplessness. However, the general design idea was finally determined, and Dong Guoguo almost understood the basic situation.
"By the way. Lao Dong, what is the estimated production capacity of Super Source and LIP lens information processors?" Shi Lei asked a key question.
The LIP lens-type information processor is facing users not only players in the World of Warriors, but also users of all high-end electronic devices around the world. In the last period of my life, Apple’s global sales of each generation of iPhone series mobile phones were approximately 200 million.
Department left and right.
Since Apple's iPhone series of mobile phones are basically positioned at the top end of the mobile phone field, Shi Lei estimated the sales of LIP lens-type information processors by referring to its sales.
Even if the sales volume of LIP lens-type information processors is reduced by ten times based on the sales volume of iPhone series mobile phones and then divided by two, it is only one-twentieth of the iPhone series mobile phones, which is still a figure of 10 million.
If the production capacity cannot keep up with the estimated sales volume of 10 million units, there will definitely be a big problem. At that time, I am afraid that Shi Lei will only be able to sell LIP lens-type information processors in a panic buying mode.
However, no matter what kind of excellent product it is, if it cannot be snapped up for a long time, it will also cause complaints from users. Especially for high-end electronic products, users of this part of the product do not care about the so-called cost-effectiveness at all. For them, snapping up something is definitely a problem.
produce resentment.
"Boss, the Lin'an underground base is currently building automated machinery production lines. It is expected that all construction will be completed on August 1. If we use all thirty automated machinery production lines to manufacture LIP lens-type information processors, the monthly production capacity can reach approximately one
One and a half million copies!" Dong Guoguo answered Shi Lei.
Monthly production capacity of 1.5 million pairs?
Shi Lei expressed deep shock at such a production capacity, "Old Dong, why are there so many?"
Dong Guoguo explained, "Boss, in fact, the core technology of the LIP lens information processor is not the assembly process, but the data processing chip and operating system software manufactured by AMD. AMD has its own wafers
Factory, they can manufacture data processing chips very quickly. In addition, most of the parts we need are not produced by ourselves, but purchased from outside, which also reduces our manufacturing pressure."
"For example, for eyeglass frames, we only need to provide relevant mold parameters and design plans, and then we can entrust other manufacturers to produce them. There is no need to worry about quality control issues. We can choose multiple third-party manufacturers and let them compete with each other. In this way
By doing so, we can effectively ensure the quality of the product." Dong Guoguo explained.
"What other parts are going to be handed over to third-party manufacturers?" Shi Lei asked. He didn't trust third-party manufacturers. After all, third-party manufacturers are equivalent to 'outsiders' and they lack the sense of responsibility in manufacturing products.
"Glasses frame, movable nose pads, flat lenses, chewing gum-type thin battery, charging base, data cable, bone conduction headphones, micro projector, display prism, micro high-definition camera, built-in data processing chip." Dong Guoguo read.
A long list of component names.
After listening to this, Shi Lei rolled his eyes and said, "Old Dong, why don't you just say, LIP lens information processor, what can we make ourselves?"
"Instruction manual and packaging box?" Dong Guoguo said in a joking tone, "The printing department under the Rongcheng Military Region has a special agent contact me. They can help print the packaging box and instructions. In view of the fact that we and the Rongcheng Military Region
I have not rejected the Rongcheng Military Region’s cooperation proposal. However, boss, please rest assured that the printing department of the Rongcheng Military Region has issued a guarantee and will never pass it off as inferior quality. I have also seen the samples they printed, and there should be nothing wrong with them.
question."
Shi Lei didn't mind handing over the printing business to the Rongcheng Military Region. Who wouldn't it be given to anyway? Why not just treat it as a favor and hand it over to the Rongcheng Military Region. As long as the printing department of the Rongcheng Military Region could guarantee the quality, then everything would be fine.
Although the profit from printing instructions and outer packaging is not much, it is estimated that the printing volume of 10 million sets can also guarantee a considerable total profit.
"Well! Old Dong, as long as the quality passes the standard, there will be no problem!" Shi Lei said with certainty. "But, Old Dong, the production capacity you mentioned is only the production capacity of the LIP lens information processor, right? What about Chaoyuan?"
"Ahem, boss, Chaoyuan's production capacity is greater! After all, we don't need to manufacture all the parts of Chaoyuan ourselves. We are still only responsible for assembly." Dong Guoguo was a little embarrassed.
According to Dong Guoguo's idea, the first-generation super source, whether it is a metal casing, a built-in power supply, or a mobile phone baseband SOC chip, etc., is all purchased from other third-party manufacturers. It will not produce it itself, but will only be responsible for it.
Assemble.
This approach can effectively reduce the overall cost. If you don't have to produce all parts yourself, how many production lines will you need to design?
Although assembly is the last link in the industrial chain, it does not mean that there is no technology in assembly. On the contrary, the technology of the assembly process is very important. If it is done well, it is called exquisite craftsmanship, but if it is not done well, it will cause problems one after another.
Shi Lei was very relieved to hand over the LIP lens information processor and super source to the automated mechanical production line in Lin'an underground base for assembly. Relying on manual assembly may cause a lot of assembly problems due to unskilled workers, similar to the assembly production of Foxconn in later generations.
Regarding PS4, nearly half of the products in one batch cannot be turned on directly.
With that batch of PS4, Foxconn ruined Sony!
Shi Lei built his own assembly production line at the Lin'an underground base and used fully automated mechanical control to reduce assembly errors as much as possible.
"Old Dong, what is the monthly production capacity of Chaoyuan's single production line?" Shi Lei needed detailed data in order to calculate the specific production time.
"Because Chaoyuan's assembly process is simpler, the monthly production capacity of each automated machinery production line is about 100,000 units." Dong Guoguo explained.
Shi Lei silently calculated that the monthly production capacity of a single production line of LIP lens information processor is 50,000 units, and that of Chaoyuan's single production line is 100,000 units. There are a total of 27 automated machinery production lines under construction in Lin'an underground base.
, plus the original three, there are a total of thirty automated machinery production lines.
In other words, LIP lens-type information processor and Chaoyuan are used to produce raw tea, and one million sets can be produced every month.
The monthly production capacity is one million sets and the estimated total output is 10 million sets. The total production time is ten months. This is a relatively ideal production cycle. However, there are only thirty automated machinery production lines in the Lin'an underground base.
!
Thirty automated machinery production lines cannot all be used to produce LIP lens information processors and super sources, right? There are also second-generation free body sensing operating platforms and VR virtual game helmets that need to be produced. In addition, there are scattered
AIP artificial intelligence prosthetics need to be produced.
Although the automated mechanical production line can be used universally, the corresponding robotic arm needs to be adjusted to change the type of product produced. Adjusting the robotic arm is not an easy task. For each production line, adjusting the robotic arm requires at least three hours of continuous work by skilled workers.
about.
Even if the production lines can be adjusted, the production tasks of multiple products cannot be completed by thirty production lines. Therefore, Shi Lei made up his mind to continue adding automated machinery production lines.
