Chapter 1002 Divestment of R&D Centers
Since Hu Mingchen did not set conditions, the discussion was still very lively, although some ideas may be too fanciful and the technology cannot be achieved in a short period of time, but Hu Mingchen still encouraged them.
Almost all of humanity's major inventions have been acquired from the impossible and incomprehensible.
The reason why our original technology is relatively less than that of the West is that on the one hand, our technical reserves are not enough, and the time has been separated from modern science and technology for dozens or hundreds of years. Secondly, our thinking is not open enough, and people with open brains will be suppressed or discriminated against.
Of course, with the introduction of modern education, with the expansion of our opening up to the outside world, and with the popularization of the Internet, these unfavorable conditions are changing.
Hu Mingchen will encourage those ideas that are marketable at present and can be realized in the foreseeable future.
Of course, everyone puts forward an idea that the company can support in terms of resources and invest in human and material resources, so that their ideas can jump out of their minds and eventually turn into actual products.
Hu Mingchen sat there, acting as a good listener, occasionally interjecting to express his opinion. Anyway, if he thinks it's feasible, he will make a statement on behalf of the company on the spot.
Therefore, after the abnormal discussion, Hu Mingchen has committed to invest more than one billion yuan in research and development.
Every engineer and technician wishes that the part of their ideas can be supported, and among them, the happiest is He Xin.
The company originally invested a lot of money in their R&D department every month, and Hu Mingchen now promised to add more than one billion, and He Xin, as the head of the R&D department, is of course very pleased and happy.
He Xin is not necessarily a person who likes to seize power, and he will not want to enrich himself from such a huge R&D investment. It's just that he still pursues a sense of accomplishment and pride.
A large amount of investment in R&D means that a large number of new technologies will emerge in the R&D center of Pengbo Electronics Group in the future, and this is He Xin's greatest achievement and political achievement.
After the discussion, Hu Mingchen left He Xin alone.
"Mr. He, I have done my best to support you, I hope you will do a good job in the overall planning and coordination of the project, you are the head of the R&D department, your burden is very heavy. ”
"Mr. Hu, I know, even if you don't tell me, I'm Alexander and walking on thin ice. I am very grateful for your support, I never thought I would be so trusted to lead such a large team doing cutting-edge research. He Xin was flattered and said.
"No suspicion of employing people, no need to suspect people, every step of our company's growth is inseparable from your participation and investment. And that's just the beginning, and in a few years' time, you'll probably be leading one of the largest R&D teams in the world. Now we don't have enough office space, and I plan to spin off the R&D department and set up a separate R&D center elsewhere, what do you think?"
"The R&D department was spun off to set up a R&D center, are we going to leave Pengbo Electronics Group?" He Xin asked with a glare.
"No, it's just that the department is separate, not independent, and the R&D center is still affiliated to Pengbo Electronics Group. Because the place we are in now is a messy industrial area, the production base can still be here, but the R&D center is also here, which will make people feel ...... We are of low grade. The personnel department told me two days ago that some high-end talents will choose the office environment, but we here, of course, do not have such an environment, and some people hear that they are working in such an industrial area, and they simply can't shirk it. Don't you feel that way?" explained Hu Mingchen.
"Of course I have a feeling, we are here in the factory area, out of the door, all of them are working girls from various factories, the whole surrounding environment is indeed messy, for some of them, life here is indeed monotonous, there is no café, there is no good shopping mall, there is no quiet accommodation and living environment...... The turnover of personnel in our department may have something to do with this. If you want to take the R&D center out of this industrial park, I support it, but I don't know where you plan to move to? And I've heard that our company is going to build its own science park......"
Hu Mingchen shook his head: "The science park will not be built for a while and a half, even if we ensure sufficient investment in suicide, such a large area, not two years, I'm afraid it is unrealistic." But we can't wait until two years from now, do you know Lychee Lake?"
"I went to Lychee Lake once on a weekend, and it was a nice place, the lake was clear, the trees were around, and the air was good. It's just that no construction is allowed there, and there is only one TF computer company by the lake, and this company was located there more than ten years ago. Do you want to move the R&D center to Lychee Lake? I'm afraid this won't work, and you're not allowed to build a house at all. ”
"The environment of that place is indeed good, it is close to the urban area, and the convenience of transportation is not bad, although in order to protect the environment of Lychee Lake, Pengcheng has classified it as a protected area, and it is not allowed to do development and construction, but didn't you just say that there is a TF computer company there. Hu Mingchen said.
"Are you planning to merge TF Computer Company?" He Xin glared at Hu Mingchen.
"Do you think that place is suitable?" Hu Mingchen did not answer He Xin's question, but asked in reverse.
"Yes, of course, the environment there is much better than we are here now, although there are no living facilities around, but the environment is really good, and it is not too far from the city center, and it is convenient to come and go with the company. Although the three buildings of TF are not high, they are enough for the office of the R&D center alone. He Xin nodded again and again.
"Okay, since you think it's suitable, then I'll think of a way. At that time, you can set up a separate canteen, you can also add some fitness facilities, and at the same time, I think, you can set up a transportation fleet, whether the employees are going to the city or to the factory, they can be transported by car. ”
"If that's the case, it would be great, and when the news gets out, all of us in the R&D department should be jubilant. He Xin was very happy that Hu Mingchen could think so thoughtfully.
To set up a R&D center is an idea that Hu Mingchen has only recently come up with. The personnel department did report to Hu Mingchen that when they recruited, some high-end talents were reluctant to work in the messy industrial zone, in other words, people felt that the R&D center of Pengbo Electronics Group was not high-end, and there might not be much future in the future.
In the future, the R&D department of Pengbo Electronics Group is the top priority among all departments of the company. If they want to attract the top talents in the country and even the world, then the company's image is very important, and the office environment and humanized management are very important.
Therefore, Hu Mingchen plans to make an transition before the establishment of the science park, and even set up a technology center in other places in the future.
Of course, Hu Mingchen's mention of Lychee Lake is not without purpose. He read in a financial magazine two days ago that TF Computer Company has been losing money for two consecutive years because of poor management, and life is very simple, and they do not even rule out moving out of Pengcheng and looking for other cities with lower costs.
Since they had the heart to leave Pengcheng, Hu Mingchen took a fancy to their land and buildings. The city will not approve the new construction, but they have no plans to demolish the original construction.
The next day, accompanied by Chen Xuesheng and He Xin, Hu Mingchen went to TF Computer Company for a visit.
Before coming, Chen Xuesheng had already contacted Zheng Yunlong, chairman of TF Computer Company.
Because of the ups and downs of Pengbo Electronics Group in recent years, Chen Xuesheng is also a pivotal figure in the business community of Pengcheng.
Zheng Yunlong is an old-school businessman, he studied in Europe and the United States in his early years, obtained two doctorates, returned to China first worked in the national scientific research institutions, and later went to the sea to found TF computer company.
A few years ago, TF Computer Company was okay, and the laptops it produced used to be in third place in sales. However, in the past two years, in the competition in the computer market in the red sea, TF Computer Company has lost and retreated one after another, and even suffered losses for two consecutive years.
If a few years ago, Zheng Yunlong might not have looked down on Chen Xuesheng, but now, one is a thriving business star, and the other is an old nobleman who is declining, which is a little different. Chen Xuesheng contacted Zheng Yunlong and said that he wanted to visit TF Computer Company, and Zheng Yunlong was warmly welcomed.
Zheng Yunlongfu was also puzzled at first, after all, the two companies had no business contacts before, so what was the purpose of this visit? Zheng Yunlong didn't believe that Chen Xuesheng was idle and had nothing to do, so he made a special trip to visit the mountains and rivers. It's just that Chen Xuesheng didn't say it, and Zheng Yunlong didn't want to ask, anyway, the boat was naturally straight to the bridge, and besides, in the shopping mall, there were many friends and many roads.
Hu Mingchen and their car stopped in front of the administrative office building of TF Computer Company, Zheng Yunlong came out of it with Yigan and others, and the administrative manager of their company was the first to guard the door, and took the initiative to open the car door for Chen Xuesheng.
After a period of greetings, Zheng Yunlong invited Hu Mingchen and his party to the office to drink tea and chat, but Chen Xuesheng proposed to visit TF Computer Company.
Regarding Chen Xuesheng's request, Zheng Yunlong did not refuse, but personally sat and explained, and took Hu Mingchen and them around.
In Zheng Yunlong's explanation, Hu Mingchen learned that more than ten years ago, TF Computer Company was one of the high-tech enterprises introduced by Pengcheng, and because of this, this land was specially approved for them to build.
