Chapter 499: Mess with me, everything
"Not counting the power supply, the weight of the machine itself is 4.2 kilograms." Xia Sichen naturally knew all the numbers of this laptop, and immediately said when he heard it.
"4.2 kg? It's too heavy! This number startled Lin Zheng, and Lin Zheng said without thinking about it.
Of course, Xia Sichen knew that this number was indeed not outstanding, but he also had his own difficulties, and explained to Lin Zheng with a wry smile: "But...... Now the weight of notebooks on the market is almost the same, this is already the limit of what we can do, and our technical level is too much worse than IBM, Fujitsu and Toshiba, which have been immersed in laptops for more than ten years, this is already our limit. ”
Lin Zheng nodded, of course Lin Zheng knew that Xia Sichen was telling the truth, the laptops on the market today belong to the typical "wide body fat", the early laptops played more of a "mobile desktop" role, the weight requirements are not harsh, Lin Zheng also has the latest IBM notebook with an all-steel structure at home, although the 10.2-inch TFT color LCD screen looks very compact, but the weight is not compact at all...... Counting the supporting computer bag and power supply system, the weight of the whole system is as high as more than 8 kilograms, and the frail little girl walks staggeringly with this thing on her back, patting the notebook in front of her, Lin Zheng said: "I know, but I don't think this is the reason why we don't continue to work hard, we can't because other people's notebooks are this weight, our notebooks are also this weight." But everyone must understand that our Lianchuang Technology did not have any reputation and popularity before, and wanted to compete with notebook brands such as IBM, Toshiba, Fujitsu and even Zhaoyang. We have to have our own characteristics, I don't expect everyone to be able to come up with the world's lightest product in a short period of time, but this 4.2 kg product is the first generation, the second generation of laptops must be reduced to less than 3 kg, and must come up with qualified samples before the end of the year. ”
As for the first-generation samples, Lin Zheng still needs to go back and carefully analyze the cost to see if there is any value for mass production to the market.
"3 kg?!" Xia Sichen was taken aback by Lin Zheng's bold words! For this day and age. It is no less difficult to make a laptop less than 3 kilograms, which is no less difficult than going from an ordinary notebook to an ultrabook. A face suddenly wrinkled, "Mr. Lin, you may not understand ......"
"No, I understand." Lin Zheng interrupted Xia Sichen's words. "I know very well how many technical problems I need to overcome if I want to reduce from 4.2 kg to 3 kg, and I have also sat on technology, and I know how difficult it is, but the company spends high-tech to invite everyone to come, and what is important is everyone's ability to solve problems, and I also clearly tell you here." As long as everyone completes this task before the end of the year, the company will not skimp on huge rewards. ”
Since there are huge rewards for completing the mission. Then you can't complete the task...... Although Lin Zheng didn't say what the consequences were, no one is a fool, so it is naturally conceivable that although Xia Sichen felt that Lin Zheng's approach was not suitable enough, he couldn't help it, the company provided the best working conditions and generous rewards for his own people, and it was understandable to be strict with everyone, but how much motivation did this stimulate everyone?
"Boss, can you tell me what the reward is?" Before Xia Sichen could ask this question, someone immediately asked.
Yes, they know that it will be difficult to reduce their dead weight to less than 3 kg if they want to succeed, but if there are enough rewards...... Money can make ghosts grind, let alone people?
"What? Everyone's in a hurry? Lin Zheng glanced up and immediately smiled.
This is not easy to accept, although everyone is itchy about the "huge reward" in Mr. Lin's mouth, but the scientific researchers of this era still have some intellectuals in their hearts, and some are ashamed to talk about money.
These guys are ashamed to talk about money, Lin Zheng is not ashamed to talk about money, and said with a smile: "Everyone's current house is rented by the company for everyone to live in, if you can successfully complete the research and development task before the end of the year, 50% of the property rights of the house belong to everyone, what do you think of this reward?" ”
"What?" Although I thought that Mr. Lin would not be stingy with the reward, when this reward really appeared, it still made everyone dizzy.
Lianchuang Technology builds a special building for these technology and scientific researchers, even if it is a bachelor who has just arrived, he can have an apartment with a kitchen and bathroom to live in, such as these people who are engaged in laptop research, basically more than 2 bedroom houses, although the property rights of these houses still belong to the company, but there is no need to pay rent, as long as you work in the company for a day, this house can live for free for a day, it can be said that the right to use this house is theirs.
But now Lin Zheng said that as long as he can complete the task, he will transfer 50% of their property rights, which means that it is at least a reward of 350,000 yuan, how can this not make everyone excited? But what excites everyone the most is not this, but another layer of meaning hidden in this information: since 50% of the property rights can be transferred after the completion of this mission, does it mean that there is a chance to obtain the other 50% of the property rights in the future, in other words, as long as you work hard, it is possible to directly get a house reward?
A group of technophiles who just felt that Lin was always deliberately embarrassing people threw that little thought just now into the Pacific Ocean: Compared with being able to get a house, what is a little bit of hardship and tiredness? Some people have even made up their minds immediately, and those colleagues who went back to the software department went back to school, and directly moved the cover roll to the real room, and then ate and drank Lazar in the real room.
Xia Sichen was also stunned, he didn't expect Mr. Lin to be so generous, and he actually took out such a large sum of money as a reward at one time, and just wanted to say something more, but looking at the excited eyes of his colleagues, who were a little red, after thinking about it, he still absolutely closed his mouth: he didn't have to say anything.
Xia Sichen didn't plan to say anything more, but Lin Zheng didn't plan to just let these guys go, and said with a smile: "In order to make everyone's future travel more convenient, the company will equip your project team with a Jinbei bread and a Fukang. Well, in addition to this, I will have a small kitchen on your side that will be responsible for cooking for you, and if necessary, making supper. ”
The small kitchen is what Xia Sichen has long wanted to equip, although the food in the big canteen is delicious, but the nature of everyone's work determines that everyone's meal time is not very fixed, if there is a small kitchen that belongs to his own group alone, it will be much more convenient, but it is equipped with two cars exclusive to the project team? Counting the original two minivans, the entire notebook project team has a whopping 4 vehicles, which is really ......
"Mr. Lin ......"
Mr. Lin did this part in logistics, Xia Sichen didn't know what to say, how many people were there in the entire project team? I was trembling and just wanted to say something, but I was interrupted by Lin Zheng, Lin Zheng said with a smile: "Okay, everyone knows that I am a black-hearted capitalist, and my favorite thing to do is to use a whip to urge everyone to work, and I also like to learn to learn to crow in the middle of the night......"
"Hahaha......"
Before Lin Zheng finished speaking, everyone burst into laughter, and some of the more courageous guys even dared to joke with Lin Zheng: "Mr. Lin, we wish that the more Zhou pickpockets like you, the better." ”
Although the country has realized the importance of scientific research and engineering and technical personnel, but the treatment of scientific research and engineering and technical personnel in this era is not very high, although the treatment given by Lianchuang Technology is still a little worse than that of foreign enterprises, but compared with the vast majority of domestic enterprises, it is really too generous, for this point, everyone is very content, the most important point, Lin is always a generous boss, follow a generous boss, and worry about no money in the future?
"It turns out that everyone really likes me to drive everyone to work with a whip," Lin Zheng smiled and nodded, "Okay, let's work hard in the future, as long as everyone works hard, cars, villas, and even wives and children ...... Oh, kid, no, you need to figure this out for yourselves...... The company can help you solve it, as long as you are happy that week, the long-term work of the peeling family will become. ”
"Hahaha......" everyone laughed crookedly.
Car? With the generosity of the boss, it is estimated that it will not be a problem in a year or two, but the villa? Everyone just thinks that the boss said it for fun, no one takes it seriously, this is a villa, even in the countryside where the land does not need money, circle a piece of land to build a small villa by yourself, and even build a house with decoration, at least 150,000 or 60,000 yuan, those villas in the city, which one is not sold for more than five or six hundred thousand? I don't want to think about the villa, and in the future, the company can reward myself with a big house with four bedrooms and two living rooms, and I will be content in this life.
No one thought that in just three years, these veterans actually moved into the villa complex built by the company for them collectively, and it was not until this moment that everyone realized that what the boss said was true, except that he did not give an additional child to make himself happy to be a father, car, villa, wife, ...... The company has all provided a complete package, of course, these are all later words.
Everyone is laughing, and Lin Zheng is also laughing, but while laughing, Lin Zheng has already begun to ponder: Should this laptop be introduced to Texas Instruments?
At the beginning, Texas Instruments gave his answer to himself in the matter of laptop OEM, Lin Zheng still remembers it vividly. (To be continued......)
