Chapter 312: Generosity
Under the leadership of Hu Lei, the bee employees climbed a water tower more than 20 meters high in the center of the commanding height of the bee farm, and everyone was able to stand on a seven-story height overlooking the world illuminated by the afterglow of the sunset.
In late autumn, the main color of the distant earth still turns brown and yellow, and the grass rolls that have not had time to be pulled away are dotted among them, although it looks interesting but it is inevitable to be a little tired after watching for a long time, fortunately, the colors of the field under everyone's feet are very colorful, as long as there is no fear of heights, you can see more colors: the cold-resistant evergreen plants planted on both sides of the road in front of the house and behind the house spread a dark green carpet on the ground, more than a dozen gray and white two-story buildings are scattered around the water tower, their walls are also painted with colorful graffiti, and the roofs have also been remodeled, all of which are paved with glass panels facing north, giving the slightly old farm a high-tech scale armor.
Of course, these dark glass panels are not meant to block sunlight, they are actually large arrays of solar panels, which work with battery systems and inverters to provide the main lighting and power for the field. This photovoltaic power generation system cost Boss Ma a lot of money, and if it weren't for the rampant domestic manufacturers like Suntech, the price would have dropped significantly, and the cost might have doubled. However, even so, there is a spare diesel engine in the field in case of continuous rainy weather that causes power shortages.
With their backs to the fields illuminated by the setting sun, the newcomers wore cowboy hats on their heads, grabbed Remington, who had no bullets to close the safety with both hands, and shouted and beckoned to the selfie robot next to them, leaving a commemorative photo of themselves and the southern hemisphere sunset.
Compared with the selfie stick that uses a Bluetooth microphone or shutter button to take photos remotely, the cost of using a small drone to take a selfie is much higher, but after all, bees produce drones, and employees naturally have a variety of drones within the company. Bee employees have thus become die-hard fans of bees' various smart devices, and they can't do without them all the time, they have long been accustomed to communicating with these smart and sensible robots, instructing them to do this and that, even if most of the people who leave the bees for various reasons still retain a good impression of bees, and are still loyal users of bee products.
However, the selfie drones equipped with voice recognition modules and intelligent AI modules around several people were not brought by them privately, but provided by the farm. Bee farms have been transformed from production farms to "farm stays", and naturally there is a need for a large number of selfie robots that have been developed specifically for tourist attractions to help them replace selfie sticks.
Of course, this so-called "farmhouse" is actually a joke of the employees, because it is nearly 200 kilometers away from the city and nearly 100 kilometers away from the nearest town, and the bee farm needs to be self-sufficient in many aspects, and the photovoltaic power generation system on the roof and the water tower system at the foot are typical examples.
Seeing the new colleagues in various rough and non-standard cosplay poses for the drone, Hu Lei had a smile on his face, and his heart was full of cordiality and nostalgia.
The "Farm Dispatch Exchange" task has gained some fame within the group, known as the "Otaku Test" and the "Cook Test", and Hu Lei is also very curious about what kind of "homestay" and "cooking value" these people will get when the time comes.
In addition to the dozens of people in the bee farm, the nearest settlement within a few tens of kilometers is other farms and Wesley Town, but because of the increase in costs and the decrease in profits, the scale of employees in those farms has been greatly reduced, there are only about a dozen people, and affected by this, the Wesley Town, which specializes in serving more than a dozen farms around it, is also inevitably declining, and the young people who can't find jobs have gone to the city, leaving behind some elderly foreigners who generally don't leave their children to their parents, and there are not many children in the town.
Because the population is too small, resulting in a lack of manpower in many life service projects, people living here can only work as plumbers, carpenters, gardeners, laundry workers and cooks, people who can live in such an environment are still very good, either they don't need social life at all, and they can live very well as the "house god" who can live well as long as they have the Internet or TV, or they are "cooking saints" level demons with strong hands-on ability, who can fill leaks in the room, bend down to dig the toilet, cut down trees, plant flowers, hunt, If you can get electricity, of course, you must have a high level of housework skills such as cooking, tailoring, laundry, and wiping tables.
"You're lucky! If it weren't for the early launch of our company's kitchen cooking robot, we would have been able to eat fried steak and toast every day. From the latest model up and down the water tower, Hu Lei led everyone to the direction of the restaurant, and at the same time popularized some precautions for living here, such as don't run around if you have nothing to do, actively cooperate with the police, and solve your own needs if you have needs, etc., scaring a few rookies who are still in an excited state.
The layout of the farm canteen is not much different from the company's canteen, the same robot embedded in the transparent glass wall divides the canteen into two parts, through the glass you can see that behind them is the working area for employees to clean and process food, and in front of the robot except for an empty queuing area, there are several rows of sparsely placed plastic steel booths. Although the latest cooking robot can make up to hundreds of dishes from various countries, because the ingredients required for different dishes are different, in order to facilitate the preparation of ingredients, many robots have also prepared a variety of mainstream dishes at home and abroad, staple food, snacks and desserts.
"Why aren't there so many people?" everyone gathered together again after eating separately, and when they saw the empty cafeteria, someone opened their mouths to ask. Although this canteen is very small compared to the company canteen, the canteen with forty or fifty seats is still very empty with only six people.
Hu Lei replied without raising his head: "Even counting you, there are less than fifty people here in total, and if all of them are together, they can almost be filled." However, half of them are Australian local employees of the firepower laboratory, and these people are all otaku, and many of them are dormitory studios with no turning around! At their strong request, the canteen has added a food delivery service, and they have already delivered food to them. In fact, it is also a bad time, if you are still on the water tower at that time, or come to the cafeteria early, you can see a long line of drones flying fast food boxes to various studios to deliver food. I forgot about it just now, otherwise I would have made you wait a few more minutes on the water tower. ”
While talking, Hu Lei's chopsticks were still waving fast, and with a peck, a pull, and a send, the square meat grains wrapped in brown and red sauce on the plate were sent into his mouth.
For Brother Lei's good Cantonese appetite, the newcomers who can only eat fully cooked steak and even kung pao chicken can only open their mouths to express envy.
"You guys are really tyrannical, kangaroo meat is high fiber and low fat, all wild, hormone-free and pesticide residues, it is the top healthy ingredient, much better than shark fin, whale meat and lobster abalone!"
"Why?"
"Why," glancing at the plates in front of everyone, Hu Lei first pointed to the slogan "Take the meal according to the amount, waste is shameful" written on the wall in Chinese and English, and then asked: "Aren't you afraid that after listening to the truth I said, you will be fined on the first day if you lose your appetite and can't eat?"
Bee's canteen management style is somewhat like a cafeteria, where everyone eats by themselves as much as they want, but waste is strictly prohibited. In order to ensure that the free company benefits are not wasted, the system will scan the contour lines of each person's body when picking up the food, and provide simple nutritional advice, as for whether you like to listen to it or not, it is a personal choice, whether you like the skinny lightweight or proud to have an ultra-thick shock absorbing layer, this is the freedom of the person. Once found to be wasteful, his next meal will be donated to a charitable organization in the form of a small donation, of course, in the name of the penalized employee himself, and there will be a corresponding receipt and thank you message to reply to the employee.
With such "cheating" methods, the bee group is also a private enterprise with the highest participation rate of employee charity activities, although it cannot be compared with the state-owned enterprises and institutions that often organize collective donations, but it is also a remarkable record, and this loving rule has also been brought overseas by bees, and several of its overseas branches also implement the same rules, but the charitable organizations that are the object of donations have changed to those that are more famous in the local area according to the situation.
"Punishment is fine, just let me see how the thank you letter of thanks from the charity organization here in Australia is written!" said one guy boldly, and he led the other four people to coax together.
"Hehe, it's actually not a big deal," Hu Lei, who had a "truth party" face just now, couldn't get off the stage, and quickly explained.
"Since it's not a big deal, then Brother Lei, you have to rest assured and say it boldly, just let us broaden our horizons and increase our knowledge!"
"Okay!" Hu Lei glanced at the crowd with a painful expression of "nozuonodie, whyutry?", and then continued: "Actually, it's just a sentence, 'food chain enrichment effect', have you all heard of it?"
"When DDT was banned, the reason given was that DDT was chemically stable and difficult to degrade into other harmless substances in nature. At that time, people could not bear it as soon as they heard that there was such a thing, and as soon as the people protested, the political axes of various countries acted quickly and immediately banned it. ”
"It seems that now DDT has been lifted again, helping African countries to use it to kill mosquitoes and fight malaria," someone added.
"Hmm!" Putting the last chopsticks of food into his mouth, chewing and swallowing it in three or two times, Hu Lei put down the chopsticks, took out a napkin to wipe the corners of his mouth, and took another napkin in his hand, and then continued: "Okay, since you all know about the food chain enrichment effect, how can you still be in the mood and have the courage to eat lobster and eat grilled squid?"
"What does it matter?" the slow person was still subconsciously asking, the more active person had already understood, and immediately sprayed, although he forcibly suppressed it at the last moment, but the unlucky guy sitting opposite him was still splashed with a few food scraps on his face and on the plate in front of him, and this meal was inedible.
As soon as Hu Lei, who had been prepared, finished speaking, he gently pulled the napkin with both hands to protect his face, and he was not affected by the pond fish at all, although the other people who were far away were not directly affected, but looking at the seafood carapace on the plate, he lost his appetite for a while.
"By the way, when you wait to donate the meal money, remember to donate it to the dog association! By the way, write the introducer Hu Lei!" Dropping this sentence, Hu Lei smeared oil on the soles of his feet and ran away.
The five newcomers looked at each other, and finally the person who knew Hu Lei gritted his teeth and said: "It seems that the war between Brother Lei and the gang of the Cat Association is not over, she is using a knife to kill people and fund the Cat Association with our generosity to fight back against the Cat Association!"
Originally, Hu Lei opened an electronics company specializing in the production of keyboards, mice, headsets, cameras, and other peripherals in the East Hall, and their products did not have much of their own technology except that the shell was their own private model, which was more exquisite and unique, and the main core chips could only be purchased and imported. Although their product quality control is strict and the quality control is excellent, there is not much difference between the performance indicators of other competing products using the same core chip, but because of the higher cost of private models, the price is not advantageous, and the market sales have never been opened.
At this time, relying on a keen eye, Hu Lei set his sights on well-known game anchors, and developed them into a similar "OEM dealer" by helping them open Taobao stores, providing a full set of inventory delivery after-sales service and giving up a lot of benefits.
However, the good days did not last long, and soon other Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Dongguan electronics colleagues also joined in, copying the set of means he first created, and snatched a lot of business with the advantage of the invincible price war. At this time, it happened that Shenzhen Bee Computer Company sent someone to discuss the acquisition, and Hu Lei, who was suffering from no core technology, agreed to the acquisition and joined Bee Computer.
His team, along with the other teams acquired by Bee, was divided into several product divisions according to products and interests, with the camera, watch and headset teams being assigned to the rest of the group, and keyboards and mice remaining in the computer company. Hu Lei finally chose to go to the mouse department, and then their department soon received the task of developing and producing a special mouse for shooting games.
However, before Hu Lei became famous for the title of "Father of Vibrating Feedback Mouse", the video of hunting wild cats when he first arrived in Australia summoned him to the strong condemnation of the domestic meow party, and Hu Lei somehow got on with them, and then uploaded a video of the barbecue wild cat, which completely formed a "mortal enemy" with the meow party. But fortunately, he didn't eat dog meat, so he joined the Wang Party camp of the dog association, relying on the strength of the organization to fight against strong enemies.
Today, he has done this kind of thing many times to trick newcomers at the table to get donations to the association, which is one of the reasons why there is no one in the canteen. For mobile phone users, please visit http://m.piaotian.net
