152 Special Assignments
Returning to HKUST, there is undoubtedly another thing that Li Mo wants to pay attention to.
It is the AACC joint R&D laboratory, which began construction here a few years ago.
Now, on the one hand, relying on the window bunker to block the enemy, on the other hand, like stationery and chemical supplies, Li Mo is no longer satisfied with the constraints of the catering industry, he knows that the best defense is to attack, and if you want to break through layer by layer, you must innovate layer by layer.
Using innovation to defeat the opponent in front of him is always Li Mo's magic weapon.
After drinking and getting drunk with his roommates, the next morning, when the other roommates were still asleep, Li Mo got out of bed alone to clean up and walked outside the dormitory building.
After so much time in the plane, a few glasses of alcohol was nothing to him.
After nearly a year of construction, at this time, located in the northwest corner of the University of Science and Technology, a new experimental building with a bit of science fiction temperament has been capped and completed, and the gorgeous glass curtain wall and the unconventional design appearance make people notice this extraordinary building from a long distance.
From the front, the gray-black building looks like an aircraft carrier sailing in the sea, and the helicopter platform on the top floor of the building blocks the sun's rays, casting a huge shadow on the ground.
The entrance, like the security checkpoint, has a specially planned entrance, and there are even bulletproof security rooms on both sides to ensure that the entire building is isolated from the outside world at any time.
In order to ensure that the confidentiality is not leaked to the greatest extent, Li Mo and Ida had a strict discussion on the design plan at the beginning of the construction, and he is an architectural major, so Li Mo also has some of his own ideas in this regard.
Not only have the shells been built, but most of the personnel have moved in to carry out research and development, and some researchers wearing the uniforms of the AACC Special R&D Department can occasionally be seen entering and exiting the area.
Since it is a joint laboratory, it is natural that researchers from Li Mo Alliance companies such as Wumart, Ida, and Chaokong are also gathered in this building.
I got the news from the administration department and heard that my boss Li Mo himself had arrived here in person, and immediately, Qiao Han, the manager in charge of the affairs of the R&D department and the first technical member to join the ugly fish, hurriedly rushed out of the building
"Boss, I didn't expect you to be able to inspect here."
After looking around, after seeing Li Mo who was standing in the shadows and looking up at the experimental building, Qiao Han hurriedly stepped forward and said respectfully.
"It's been a long time since I've contacted you, but the work is going well here, right?"
In the end, he was the first group of members to join, and he made a lot of contributions to himself in the development of new products, and Li Mo's tone towards this old employee was obviously much more polite.
"Very good, thanks to the support of the headquarters, our research work has been moving forward steadily, relying on new products, the market share of stationery has been further expanded, the products basically cover all kinds, and at the same time, with the Phantom team, the development of chemical products has also made significant progress."
Between the words, Qiao Han said proudly, "I always thought that only in the United States would there be such good R&D conditions, but I didn't expect that there would be such a good R&D environment in my own country." ”
If Li Mo is the core pillar of the entire group, then the R&D team led by Qiao Han and others is the peripheral framework and constructor, relying on the basic technology brought by Li Mo, constantly building new fortresses on the original basis, and finally creating a larger and larger group.
Although Li Mo's focus has not been on ugly fish and phantom recently, relying on a group of talents and managers such as Qiao Han and using Li Mo's sharpened blade, he has continued to overcome obstacles and climb the peak.
"Talk as you go."
Seeing that the other party couldn't wait to report the results to him, Li Mo pointed to the entrance of the experimental building next to him, "Just go in and have a visit." ”
"Wait a minute, this one still needs a special identification to enter, I'll help you get one."
Seeing that Li Mo planned to enter the newly completed experimental building, Qiao Han immediately ran back to the building, and rushed back with two plastic cards a few minutes later, "This is specially made for you, and it is planned to be handed over to you when you come." ”
Li Mo took the card and took a look, in addition to his photo, there seemed to be a small chip hidden in it.
"Because it is a joint laboratory, it is easier to enter the gate outside, and you can pass with this card, but the secrecy inside is stricter, and some departments and data rooms require special authorization and fingerprint identification to enter, and these security measures will gradually improve with technical needs."
While introducing, Qiao Han brought Li Mo into the building.
The first thing that comes to mind is a rotunda with an AACC glass art logo in the center, flanked by two spiral staircases and two elevators.
Here, different companies and different R&D projects have their own exclusive areas, which are either blocked by alloy materials or blocked by tempered glass, and from time to time you can see some people in white or gray research coats holding various data materials in their hands.
If he hadn't seen the architectural drawings in advance and had a general understanding of the internal structure, Li Mo would definitely be stunned by the layout of this place in an instant like other people who entered here for the first time.
It's a scene you can only see in science fiction movies.
In fact, relying on the advantages of the background, when Ida built this place, it was also based on the structure of many national laboratories.
"This is our special materials R&D center, working with the Wumart team... There is also our skincare test center, which develops new collections based on the original products of the Phantom... This is the meeting room, and here..."
Along the way, Qiao Han helped Li Mo introduce the internal layout, and at the same time took Li Mo to the door of a capsule-like office, pushed the door open, and a spacious and bright room appeared in front of him.
"This is the office reserved for you, and it's the best room in the whole building."
Although he had long expected that there would be his own office space here, Li Mo was still taken aback when he saw this office comparable to his own office in the AACC headquarters building.
"Very well thought out."
In this regard, Li Mo nodded and praised.
What I thought of before is here, and what I didn't expect has been shown, and it seems that I spent 100 million yuan with Ida to build this experimental building.
"Is there a camera here?"
Then, Li Mo walked into his office and asked.
"There are hallways and labs and my office, but this is the only office without cameras."
Qiao Han replied in the affirmative.
In fact, there is no need for him to say it, Li Mo himself has already collected the internal structure of the room.
Relying on the newly replaced watch, including the camera and other monitoring tools, Li Mo has also planned into the "danger warning", once there is really a recording monitoring equipment around, he will also be quickly discovered.
So far, there hasn't been anything in this office that has caused the watch to scan like the outside.
"Actually, there is another task to be handed over to you this time, and I can't think of any other team other than that."
Walking into this office with a technological texture, Li Mo motioned for Qiao Han to close the door and spoke.
"Happy to take on new assignments."
In this regard, Qiao Han himself had already expected it, and said with a serious expression.
He has also heard a lot of rumors about the company recently, and his boss should not have the leisure to visit here at this time.
"We're doing anime stuff, you should know, right?"
Hearing this, Qiao Han nodded, "Yes, I myself am also watching the latest "Fog Man", in all fairness, it is no worse than American comics or comics. ”
"Originally, it was a strategy to match the sales of our products, but now it seems to have been learned by other competitors, so it is no longer as strong as before, so I want to make some additions to increase the attractiveness."
As he spoke, Li Mo then took out a USB flash drive from his pocket as if by magic, "Can the computer here be used?" ”
"Of course."
Seeing that Li Mo seemed to have some new products to browse, Qiao Han stepped forward and helped Li Mo open the computer host on the table, "It's just that I haven't used it all along, if it doesn't work, I'll go and get my notebook again." ”
Fortunately, soon the computer entered the system and was running normally.
Then Li Mo used the computer to open the USB flash drive and show Qiao Han the things on it.
"These are..."
Seeing a column of colorful dolls with different molecular formulas and the names of various chemical materials side by side, Qiao Han was curious, not knowing what Li Mo wanted to express.
"We have commissioned Wumart to help us create a batch of doll models and plush toys, and these things have proved to be quite attractive, at least our existing products have basically sold out..."
Looking at the content above, Li Mojie said, "So, I plan to continue to start from this aspect and increase the attractiveness of our theme restaurant, but... Compared to our food and beverage products, such an ordinary toy seems to be a little unproductive, so I plan to make some changes. ”
Staring at the contents of these doll drawings, Qiao Han thought thoughtfully, "Do you plan to create new products from the material aspect, just like washed eraser products?" ”
The toys shown on the screen are all set in the world of "Dark", "Panda Planet" and the serialized "Fog Man", and most of them are characters or supporting characters from the anime, but these toys seem to show some different surnames in various aspects.
For example, one of the expressions belongs to the surname, and without relying on energy sources such as batteries, it can be "pinched" according to "stroking" ... and so on to make different expression reactions, and the essence is to use special material surnames, combine expressions and material changes, and match the identities of each doll's image in the anime, making various gestures of cute or angry, as if the characters in the anime are alive in reality.
In addition, these dolls can also show different skin tones according to the change of temperature, on the one hand, they can act as a simple thermometer, and on the other hand, they can increase the interactive surname, which can better attract the attention of children.
… And many more technologies like that
What's more, these dolls are all integrated with the atmosphere of the Yaoxiang Manju theme restaurant, which can not only increase the fun surname to attract more customers, but also the sales results alone can also be used as an additional income for the restaurant.
"So to speak." Li Modao, "It's just that in the process of our other R&D teams, we have encountered some troubles, so we have to leave it to you to solve." ”
As in the past, Li Mo did not take out the finished product directly, but continued to keep the core technology in his own hands, and then handed over some problems that could be solved with a little brains to his subordinates, and finally released them.
"If these toys can make it... Then I'm afraid we're going to do another miracle, right? ”
Looking at these drawings, Qiao Han was already immersed in them, "Moreover, these technologies can be applied to other aspects, such as clothing... With these technologies, thermal clothing and cold-proof clothing can be eliminated directly..."
"That's your R&D task, I just want the finished product."
Li Mo, who was said by the other party, naturally expected that these technologies were also the latest ones he had obtained from the plane mall after he added some funds, but they were simply combined with the existing brand packages.
As for whether it is feasible, Li Mo himself is not convinced, and wants to find his own R&D department to experiment first.
If this development proves to be feasible, it will undoubtedly have another edge in terms of theme restaurants and new technologies.
"I'm going to get my computer and start the research and development of new products right away."
After a quick browsing, Qiao Han said excitedly, in his opinion, these new products are enough to create a new toy company like Phantom and Ugly Fish! When combined with a themed restaurant, the attraction is anything but ordinary! (To be continued.) )
