Chapter 900: Talking about the unmanned factory with the lights off
At the Spring Festival Gala, Lin Qi and Mr. Jiang worked next to each other, and the two talked quite cordially, and they were also captured by the camera many times.
Although, it was downplayed on the news, and Lin Qi's name and the identity of the boss of the new entrepreneurship department did not appear. However, many viewers who pay attention to the CCTV Spring Festival Gala and CCTV programs still noticed the middle-aged man next to Mr. Jiang.
Many ordinary people who originally didn't pay much attention to politics, industry and economic events gradually understood the influence of the new entrepreneurship department through the lens of the Spring Festival Gala and the continuous interpretation and popularization of science by many people around them.
"Lin Qi is awesome!"
"Who said that China can't produce world-class entrepreneurs, isn't Boss Lin the world's top?"
"How much money does Lin Qi have?"
"A lot, some estimates, more than $50 billion is underestimated. ”
"Richer than PetroChina!"
"The national tobacco company may not have as much money as him. ”
"The state doesn't care about such capitalists?"
"People make profits from scientific and technological innovation, and most of the profits are from overseas markets, making money from foreigners' pockets, providing jobs and taxes for Chinese, and cultivating China's high-tech industry." As long as he is not sick in his brain and does not make unforgivable mistakes, the country will definitely always strive to protect him and regard him as a banner of reform and opening up!"
In fact, the subsidiaries of the new entrepreneurship department only employ more than 2 million employees in China, radiating more than 10 million people, and the upstream and downstream supply chain enterprises related to the new entrepreneurship department are far better than the current domestic enterprises.
The size of the staff is no less than that of the new entrepreneurship department, mainly giants such as PetroChina and State Grid, but ...... These companies are all large state-owned enterprises, although they are ubiquitous, but they are relatively low-key, so ordinary people will not be so painful as to compare with PetroChina who is richer.
Lin Qi's new entrepreneurship department is comparable to the oil system, but it is a private enterprise, and of course, the reputation is also very high. Lin Qi's new entrepreneurship department can develop to such a point, on the one hand, Lin Qi is more honest, willing to cooperate with the country, and the industrial focus is on China. On the other hand, the country also needs to use Lin Qi as a business card to attract domestic and foreign capital and increase investment in the Chinese market.
Although, according to traditional Marxist theory, the glorified term of entrepreneur should be said to be capitalist. The capitalists, in the past, seemed nothing more than the exploitation of surplus value, as if they were parasites of society, bubbling with filthy blood in every pore. But in reality, to solve the shortage of domestic productivity, capital and entrepreneurs are still needed. The majority of capitalists, mere mediocre exploiters, are useless in promoting economic development and scientific and technological progress.
But there are always some outliers, and the path taken is not pure exploitation of labor.
For example, Lin Qi has reached this level, it is difficult to measure it by pure exploitation, and it is more dependent on the dividends of science and technology, not just the dividends of the market and cheap labor.
"Mr. Jiang, now the country's economic and scientific and technological accumulation is insufficient, and a large number of low value-added jobs are needed for ordinary people. But in fact, I don't think it's ordinary workers or officials who are driving the country's progress, but more because of technological progress. After the reform and opening up of civilized countries, many industrial layouts are actually very similar to a series of industrial policies in Japan after the war, and the development trajectory is also extremely similar. So, now we need to cross the river by touching Japan, and Japan has made some mistakes that we must avoid in the future. In the past, the boom cycle of Japan's economic development was the continuous growth of foreign exchange and the continuous increase in leverage in the real estate market, which stimulated the flood of liquidity in the Japanese market. Now, Japan's economic downturn is unstoppable, mainly because of the deleveraging of the real estate sector. The real estate market, if it becomes a pillar industrial zone, is equivalent to taking an aphrodisiac, which will accelerate the economy and improve finances in the short term, but overdraft the country's future in the long run. Even in the United States, at least eight or nine out of ten financial crises are caused by debt leverage in the real estate industry. Therefore, if our country wants sustainable economic growth, then we must avoid the rapid rise in housing prices and land prices, and also try to avoid the leverage model of using land pledge to obtain bank loans, because land is almost unlimited, and if there is no restriction on taking land pledge loans, it is equivalent to unlimited overdraft credit! Japan's economy, in my opinion, most industries will go downhill, and we will not see much development in the future, and international competitiveness will continue to decline, but the automobile industry is an exception. Lin Qi said with a smile.
"The automobile industry is exceptional, why?" Mr. Jiang was actually born as an engineer engaged in automobiles. It can even be said that for a long time, many high-level officials in China have a background of engineers and scientists. For example, Mr. Wen later was an expert in geology.
"Japan's automotive industry is highly automated and unmanned, and even if Japan's economy is in recession, investment in the automotive industry has not decreased, but has increased. From the point of view of production efficiency, in 1960, Japan's automobile industry was very backward, not to mention the assembly line, it was completely handicraft, and the average annual production per capita was 1.2 cars. This level is roughly similar to the efficiency of the car production line before China's reform and opening up. Lin Qi said.
"Almost. Mr. Jiang nodded. In fact, the level of car production in China was even worse in the 80s than in Japan in the 60s. After all, the degree of industrialization in Japan and the number of engineers and technicians in the automobile industry in the 60s far exceeded that of Japan. After all, Japan was able to produce a large amount of military equipment in modern history, and after World War II, Japan's military industry was originally emasculated by the United States. During World War II, Japan was able to assemble mass production of military products, but after World War II, Japan's military industry regressed to the manual era, and aircraft, tanks and other products basically relied on old equipment to produce parts.
However, Japan's automobile industry is a civilian product. Therefore, a large number of engineers and technicians can be invested to improve the production process. Therefore, its production efficiency has always been a linear development.
"By the 80s, Japan's annual car production capacity exceeded 11 million, surpassing the United States to become the largest automobile producer. At the same time, the productivity of Japan's automotive industry continues to improve. In 85 years, the production efficiency of Japanese automobiles in Japan increased to 16.1 cars per capita per year, which is the total number of tens of millions of employees in the automobile industry in Japan, divided by production. If you only count automobile assembly plants, some of the more advanced production lines in Japan can assemble and produce more than 100,000 cars a year with 300 people, and it is not too difficult to assemble 300 cars per person per year. Lin Qi said, "This is a terrible number, some old European car companies, such as the United Kingdom, Italy car production companies, the efficiency is very low, per capita a year production of more than 10 vehicles." Japan's per capita efficiency is more than 20 times that of some of Europe's older developed countries. Even Germany, which has the highest industrial efficiency in Europe, is still less efficient than the Japanese in terms of automobiles. To a certain extent, the production model of Japan's automobile industry can be said to be the current and future direction of global manufacturing efforts and further development, and that direction is that the degree of automation is getting higher and higher, the less manual labor is used, and the repetitive labor is no longer replaced by people, but by machines. All links of the entire production line will be replaced by people, and all will be replaced with machines driven by computer programs, which will form an unmanned production plant. Of course, Japan's unmanned production plant is only preliminary, which only solves the production problems within the factory, in fact, there are still many problems that cannot be solved, such as raw material procurement, logistics, marketing, design, etc. In fact, raw material procurement, market, and logistics can be solved through the Internet. ”
"Let's talk about technology, in the future, you have to be less involved in political issues, don't stand in line, which is not good for your business and your personal long-term future. Mr. Jiang suddenly said, "Your importance is more of a business card of China." You are not a state-owned enterprise, you are a capitalist, and in the international arena, you can better bring benefits to China. Unmanned factory, you can mention it, I'll go back and let the experts demonstrate!"
Lin Qi nodded, and then talked about the future unmanned factory model of turning off the lights.
Turn off the lights to produce unmanned chemical plants, which has gradually become a very popular new trend in the manufacturing industry in later generations. The factory that can turn off the lights for production means that the machine has been able to produce reliably without the need for people to be on duty.
In later generations, this concept was not long proposed, not only in the international attention, but also in China's manufacturing industry, also quickly sought after the lights off factory, and people with lofty ideals are investing a lot of resources in the lights off factory.
The greater advantage of turning off the lights in the factory is not only to turn off the lights, but more importantly, there is no one in the production process. Even, it is gradually combined with the Internet and 5G, the Internet of Things and other technologies.
The gradual formation is not just as simple as the use of a large number of industrial robots in the factory. Crucially, the data is networked, and managers can keep up to date with the latest developments in the factory from thousands of miles away. In addition, many of the procurement links and even the sales links can be unmanned.
This is terrible, the production of raw materials unmanned procurement, after signing, sent to the warehouse and workshop, unmanned assembly line production is completed. After that, it is put on the shelves and sold on the Internet.
Of course, if an unmanned chemical plant wants to operate smoothly, it still needs to invest a lot of technology.
In fact, even if the future generations can realize unmanned chemical factories, they are all manufacturing giants, such as Gree, Haier, Foxconn, etc., the scale is very large, and the R&D resources are relatively sufficient, so they will be able to lay out unmanned factories. Even the top giants, 20 years later, unmanned factories have not yet been fully popularized, and they are only expanding in a small area while experimenting.
The goal and direction are correct, and in order to achieve this goal, it is necessary to overcome the technical problems encountered in each link bit by bit in the process. Even if it has been invested for ten or twenty years, it has not yet reached the level of turning off the lights in the factory, but there must be a lot of innovation and invention in the process, which will greatly improve the efficiency of industrial production.
Compared with traditional factories, unmanned factories are a new industrial revolution, and it is not an exaggeration! As long as the unmanned lights off ICBC can really be popularized, and China has mastered the core technology, then it is not a dream to want per capita GDP to reach the standards of developed countries!
