When it comes to 3D printed rocket engines, aviation jet companies have very mature technology, and the project manager recommends applying to the company for a license for the production of micro rockets, as long as the thrust does not exceed a certain limit, it can be manufactured by itself, then it should not cost much, and the project manager has an understanding of the market.

Of course, it took a lot of effort for the project manager to convince the aviation jet company that he needed to build a rocket with ethanol and hydrogen peroxide, which was very incomprehensible.

The company has a rocket that uses additive manufacturing technology and only needs three parts, Juchen looked at the drawings and was very impressed.

In order to manufacture this rocket in batches, or in order to be fast, Juchen divided the 3 parts into 30 parts to manufacture them separately, and then welded them, this technology can also be put down, which can be manufactured with 30 machines at the same time, and the speed is increased by 30 times.

The project manager still didn't understand why he was doing this, and would he be able to use additive manufacturing to produce rocket engines in large quantities in the future?

Juchen really thinks so, if the quality is okay.

The use of hydrogen peroxide as an oxidant makes the R&D personnel very happy, because the possibility of explosion is very low, much stronger than liquid oxygen, and all the experiments can be completed under the conditions in the laboratory, which allows many sensors to be used to accelerate the development of products.

Even in the laboratory, the impact of strong sea breezes on rocket recovery can be simulated, do you say that the R&D personnel are happy or not?

Because it made the staff feel that they were working on a small SpaceX, they were all full of energy.

Amateur rockets are in full swing, IT outsourcing giant Accenture's offer for PCC has also increased to $15 billion, and a bunch of venture capitalists are ready to move, and their wealth is growing too fast.

Juchen was also excited, however, he immediately launched the project of the engineering crowdsourcing company, while he still controlled the PCC, and set up another platform, so that he would not have nothing but huge cash after selling the PCC in the future. Engineering Crowdsourcing Co., or ECC for short.

To the mini rocket project, you can recruit a large number of reliable and unreliable technicians, and then carry out the work mode of grabbing orders internally, regardless of whether you are reliable or not, as long as you can complete the list of grabbing, you are a member of a qualified company, and even unimportant sub-projects are open to everyone.

In fact, this semi-public flexible working model has long been started inside the tobacco factory, and the factory is basically continuous, but no employees complain about overtime, because the effect of flexible working mode on improving happiness is too strong.

Because of the improvement of efficiency, the average salary of workers in the cigarette factory has also been upgraded to more than 4,000, and the individual who grabs more orders can reach 7,000, which is the most ordinary general worker, not counting management and technical personnel.

The supply chain of filtered cigarettes is being established, and the contribution to revenue is not yet visible, but the prospects are promising. Because retailers are coming, and people in the industry know this very well, so Imperial Tobacco came to talk about investment. Both BAT and Imperial Tobacco found that Juchen had a strong ability to integrate scientific and technological talents, and after a while, the elites in the industry joined Filtered-Cig (FC).

BAT values FC at 500 million, while Imperial Tobacco values FC at 800 million. Originally, Juchen did not plan to bring in tobacco companies as investors, but found that only they were interested, and a medium-sized chemical plant was not enough to build the chemical technology barriers needed for FC in the future, according to his joint research with industry experts, I am afraid that the investment required is really 5 to 1 billion US dollars to bring top technologies or companies such as filtration preparations and adsorbents under his umbrella.

Juchen never expected to spend so much money, and it seems that he has recently had to raise funds, or simply sell PCC to Accenture, which is full of sincerity.

PCC can still delay a little longer, waiting for his next similar crowdsourcing industry spare tire ECC to develop to a certain extent. Do you really want to take money from tobacco companies?

The tobacco company's money is not easy to get, the company's overall valuation is only 800 million at most, and most of the shares must be sold to obtain enough acquisition funds, then it will be out of control and boring.

Although the workers of the cigarette factory have improved their lives, the dormitory is still an old house N years ago, and it does not look like what a promising factory should be, it is dilapidated, Juchen decided to ask an architect to design a worker's apartment, preferably with a separate house for each person, it doesn't matter if it is smaller.

Having an independent space is every worker's dream.

Previously, this treatment was only available to senior cadres, but it was designed to make it possible for workers to live in "dream dormitories".

The architect provided a core solution, inspired by the British architect's Cube Project, in which the core idea is a retractable space, using a wall that can be moved with a wheel, to flexibly store spaces that are not normally used, such as bathrooms and beds.

Even the space can be stored, not to mention those extra sofas, dining tables, coffee tables, bedside tables, almost all the furniture that can be folded, can be rested on the top and bottom, so that the small space of 3x6 meters can actually accommodate all the elements of a bachelor apartment: living room, kitchen, bedroom, toilet, bathroom.

With a height of 2 meters, like a container box, it can be stacked on top of each other, with a total of 9 floors, 50 units on each floor, and a 3-meter aisle on the wide side, just enough to form a 60 m x 60 m square.

The 9-story square has 450 mini bachelor apartments, directly purchasing the retailer's products, the cost is 80,000 units, excluding household appliances, the wholesale price is 50,000, approved for manufacturing, 50,000 pieces can include household appliances, but you need to set up a construction team by yourself, no problem in this regard, the cigarette factory has a lot of human resources, and you can simply learn it.

These 450 apartments can be rented to workers at a price of 1,000 yuan, because they contain a full-size double bed, so it is equivalent to the rent of only 500 per person, in the city near Cotton Tree City, this price is not expensive, not to mention that this small apartment is so well designed, the special treatment of wood fiber official can guarantee at least 50 years of use, the use of domestic technology, may be almost effective, 30 years is always there.

And after renting out for 4 years, the cost of the unit can be recovered.

The investment amount is 450x50,000 = 22.5 million, the first phase of the pilot, see how the effect is.

As for those workers who want to stay in the room, they can also, after removing the kitchen in a suite, put two bunk beds and live for four people, which is equivalent to a living cost of 250, as long as they are willing to endure hardships, it is not much to spend 250 for workers to stay.

After the plan was decided, the architect in charge of the project had not relaxed for a few days, and Ju Chen suddenly had a strange idea, because he was inspired by the movable wall, and felt that there was a lot of potential for creativity in this area.

Of course, the land in the factory area is cheap, but in the center of the metropolis, the space is expensive, and an apartment in Cotton Tree City has to pay thousands of rents, wasting a lot of money for office workers.

One is a B&B and the other is a coworking space. The former is exemplified by Airbnb, valued at $31 billion, and the latter by WeWork, valued at $20 billion.

The opportunity arises to build a wall, a wall that can be moved, and a large part of the living room can be emptied and replaced with custom office furniture and home furniture.

The biggest feature of custom-made furniture is that it can be stored to a minimum, and then switch between office and residence, before 9 o'clock in the morning, the homeowner switches the status from living to office, and goes to work alone. Tenants use the hours from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and switch back to occupancy before the end of the day.

It's amazing that a landlord can live with a tenant and still have a shared space.

There aren't many landlords who have rooms available 24 hours a day, but the homeowners who go to work during the day cover almost the vast majority of human beings, so theoretically the largest sharing economy company is not Airbnb or WeWork, but ...... This thing Juchen came up with, okay, let's start with a name, it's called AirWork.

At the heart of the project was the design of the furniture, and Juchen began to recruit experts in the field on the engineering crowdsourcing platform to secretly build AirWork.

This project is really very hidden, except for Juchen himself, no one knows why he wants such a strong storage attribute of furniture, such a big boss, and always think about saving space, it's really stingy, it's not good to have a bad background.
