Chapter 40: The Goose

The next day.

Sending Lin Yiwei and Li Xiaorong on the shuttle bus back to school, Zhao Lei returned to the factory. The two beauties have their own studies and jobs, and they can't be delayed too much. Zhao Lei will live here for a while.

For him, it doesn't matter whether he goes to school or not, and the school also has special academic care for the students who win the creative competition, such as as meeting the basic graduation requirements, mainly to leave more time and be meticulous, and give them enough time for research and invention.

How long to live here, Zhao Lei himself is not sure, there are thousands of things on the road to entrepreneurship, and you need to start here.

From today onwards, this factory already belongs to itself, and it is only a few days to complete the transfer and handover procedures. He left these trivial matters to his parents to handle, and he quietly imagined the strategic steps.

Now the most difficult thing is not touch screen research and development, he has mature considerations in this regard, Lou Dehua and others, coupled with the constantly hired technical personnel, Zhao Lei's control ability at key nodes, touch screen development is only a matter of two or three years.

The most difficult thing is management, Zhao Lei understands technology and market development, but has no experience in large-scale enterprise management. Once the touch screen is successful, he will fully occupy the high ground of the mobile phone industry, expand from the mobile phone industry to other electronic products, and then a powerful business empire will really take off.

It is hard to imagine that an entrepreneur with no management experience can lead a large group to cut through the waves.

But now it is necessary for him to spend a year or two to further his studies, and there is really no time. What to do?

This question will linger in Zhao Lei's mind for a long time until he comes up with a solution.

Auctioning this factory, Zhao Lei almost made a profit, but many people don't understand the real value, but it is not that he auctioned the factory at least 200,000 yuan lower than the real value at the auction.

Its true value lies in the old employees of the factory. They are all skilled workers in the electronics industry, with technology and experience, and many of them even dug up from Jiangsu and Zhejiang at a high price when the factory was on fire in the seventies and eighties, but with the decline of the factory, they were buried.

Once Zhao Lei's industry starts, as long as these skilled workers are awakened, the vitality will be fully stimulated.

To do business and do business, it is by no means a leader, but the perfect integration of a leader and a strong team.

The development of touch screen is not as simple as imagined, although I understand the principle and the research path, which can provide the most convenient channel for the squad leader and them to take as few detours as possible. But at present, there is a shortage of social technology, and many people have never even heard of touch screens.

He originally wanted to find a few professional-level teachers in the school, but after communication, Zhao Lei dispelled the idea, their understanding of the principle of the touch screen was not much deeper than that of the class leader.

Everyone is a blank sheet of paper, and all the drawings should be drawn by themselves.

During the entire research process, Zhao Lei set it as two years, and the four major technical studies took half a year each. In other words, within two years, a prototype of the mobile phone touch screen will be produced. Then within two years, mass production will be realized, and the market will be completely occupied within five years

According to Lin Yiwei and Li Xiaorong's calculations, all the investment during the development period in the first year will be about 5 million yuan.

Zhao Lei has a total of more than 8 million and 100,000 yuan in cash, nearly 6 million yuan for thin monkey immigration, 700,000 yuan for auctioning off the factory, and then excluding expenses such as buying a house for his father, Zhao Lei currently has 1.3 million cash on hand.

It doesn't sound like much, but in 1995, a 100-meter square meter house, these money can be more than ten sets.

However, compared with the development cost of 5 million yuan, the gap is very large. However, there is no need to worry, the five million yuan is not a one-time investment, but gradually increased with the deepening of research and development.

1.3 million yuan, more than enough for initial basic research.

Okay, let's put aside the long-term matters for now, and let's think about the things in front of us first.

Photographing this factory, Zhao Lei plans to set up the company's R&D base here in the future, which is the place where he was born and raised, the roots are here, and the heart is here. No matter how far you go, no matter how rich you are, you are a child of this old and backward town.

For the existing business of the factory, Zhao Lei seems very difficult, these radio accessories that have remained unchanged for decades, seeing that the road to business is getting narrower and narrower, there are still a few people who use radios in these years, plus Liu Hua has been eating inside and outside the toss for many years, and the foundation has long been lost.

If we continue to run this business, I am afraid that it will be difficult to even feed the workers.

If the transformation and production of other products, Zhao Lei's energy can't keep up, he will go all out to win the touch screen technology in about two years, and try to produce a prototype to win orders; Second, other products are also large investment, profit bottom, investment of one million, annual output can have more than 200,000 is good, remove labor expenses, depreciation, various expenses, net profit, it is estimated that it is about 100,000 yuan.

Zhao Lei really doesn't want to make these little money.

I don't want to make these small money, so what will Zhao Lei do to support himself and R&D personnel during the two-year research and development period? Just with the 1.3 million yuan in cash around you?

Where is enough, the research and development fee will be more than 5 million yuan.

Lin Yiwei and Li Xiaorong have already helped Zhao Lei calculate, the development of the touch screen involves more than 100 patents, in addition to the core patents that cannot be transferred, the rest of the patented technologies are closely related to other industries such as audio and video, audio-visual, etc., and then apply for a patent, if it is sold, the patent transfer fee is less than three or four hundred thousand.

Selling one-tenth of the patent has no damage to the core technology of the touch screen, but it can be exchanged for four or five million yuan in income, which is still low.

So, how can he be eye-catching with the small amount of money in the traditional business of the factory?

Of course, these are all trade secrets, and no one can get any details of this grand cause except for the core ones like Lin Yiwei and others who know about it.

Zhao Lei originally wanted to first strip off all the previous business of the factory, leaving only the shell of the factory, purchase some necessary research equipment, recruit a few high-tech technical personnel, purely use it for the research and development base, and reserve the production site for more than two years.

But when he walked into the factory, two things happened that made his mind change quickly.

The 127 factory employees, excluding Liu Hua's cronies, most of them were neatly lined up in two rows at the factory gate. Nominally, they no longer belong to this factory, but this is where they live.

At the main gate of the factory, there is a high hanging "Kick the demon woman angrily, welcome A Lei to come", the literature and science are a little rough, but it is the most straightforward voice of all workers.

Father and mother, who were pushed by the workers, walked in front of Zhao Lei.

"Lei'er, my mother is so happy." There were obvious tears in the mother's eyes, "The brothers and sisters in the factory, I must wait for you here and talk to you a few words from the heart." ”

The father's big voice was still loud: "Boy, you have seen it, the front row are all uncles and aunts who have taken you to play with you since childhood, and the back are all brothers and sisters you know, they are all looking forward to working under you in the future, you can't forget them!" ”

Zhao Lei's eyes suddenly blurred, can this heavy trust be pushed away?

"Aunts and uncles, brothers and sisters!" Zhao Lei shouted, "I, Zhao Lei, will never forget you, give me a year or two, I promise to run the factory prosperously, and when the time comes, everyone will still come here to work!" ”

"Good!" Applause erupted, and the overwhelming cheers could be heard clearly for miles.

This was the first thing he encountered when he entered the factory, and the second thing was a little ironic.

Accompanied by Lao Han and other backbones in the factory, Zhao Lei walked towards the factory, a place that he has been accustomed to playing since he was a child, and he is very familiar with every inch of land. It's just that now the workers have been emptied, and the factory is silent.

Walking to the parts assembly of the car parts, Zhao Lei suddenly stopped, and several backbones also said "Huh", expressing surprise.

In the workshop, there was the sound of someone sobbing softly.

This factory, which was shut down half a month before the start of the auction, who will stay inside?

Zhao Lei walked quickly to the workshop, stopped abruptly at the door, touched the back of his head, and had some unbelievable expressions.

There was a thin young man, lying on the empty product stacking table, crying so sadly.

The accompanying old Han smiled: "Ahem, it turned out to be the stupid goose, I thought it was who." ”

"Goose?" Zhao Lei asked strangely.

The backbone hurriedly introduced: "I forgot his real name, he entered the factory last year, and said that he entered the factory, but in fact, your father took pity on him and took him in, from a neighboring county." ”

"Is there something wrong with his brain?" Zhao Lei pointed to his head, because the name of the goose is easy to associate with the goose.

Lao Han was noncommittal: "It looks normal and abnormal, I graduated from high school, I was not admitted to university, I guess my spirit was stimulated, and I ran away from home." Your dad met him on the street last year, and this kid was dying of hunger. Everyone took pity on him, so they took him into the factory and supported himself. ”

The person accompanying him added: "This young man, I guess it's stupid to read, the normal process is done in a few minutes, he has to spend more than twice as long, and he can't teach, I don't know what is going on in his head." So after the factory was shut down, he looked for several jobs outside in a row, and they were all fired after a few days. Maybe it's because I don't have a livelihood, so I'm sitting here crying. ”

Zhao Lei strode in and patted him on the shoulder: "Hey, brother, what's the use of just crying?" ”

Lao Han hurriedly introduced: "Dumb goose, this is our factory, cough cough, in fact, I can't say our word, this is the new boss in the factory, surnamed Zhao, Boss Zhao." ”

Zhao Lei pulled over a dirty chair and sat down: "Brother, you graduated from high school last year, you should be the same age as me, how many months is it?" ”

"The eighth month of the lunar calendar." The dumb goose replied timidly, and it was evident that he was very unsociable.

"That's younger than me, call me Brother Lei, don't be a boss, my brother is uncomfortable." Zhao Lei said with a smile, "I haven't found a job for half a month, is there no money?" ”

It's okay not to say this, but as soon as the words fell, the stupid goose cried "wow", tears and snot danced together, and there was really a kind of earth-shattering crying ghosts and gods.

Lao Han stepped forward and whispered: "I heard the people in the factory say that the young man died of his father when he was a child, and now the old lady is sick in bed, and the living expenses are all sent by him from his part-time job, and the salary is less than 500 yuan, and he sometimes sends more than 400 yuan to his mother for treatment, and he eats steamed buns and pickles." Now that he doesn't have a job, I guess he's going to starve to death. In the past, the factory donated money to him, but everyone did not have enough money, so they only expressed their hearts. ”

Zhao Lei's heart softened, remembering that he also came from the end of the road, in the first half of his freshman year, his parents fell into the strictest economic crisis, didn't he also eat steamed buns and live on pickles?

took out the wallet and stuffed all the more than 1,000 yuan in it into the hands of the stupid goose: "Brother, take it to the emergency first!" I decided that the factory would be back in a week! ”

After speaking, with a few backbones, he strode towards the door.

The lives of more than 100 workers are all in this factory, and they are carrying it themselves, and they must also carry it steadily.

He didn't know that with his kindness to the stupid goose, he retained not only a worker, but a genius of the world.
