If the Chinese New Year people do not go home, relatives and friends are not at ease, and the unit and school must also explain it. After eating Chinese New Year's Eve, Xia Zhigao and his eldest daughter Xia Ning took Chen Baodong's car back to Beilin's hometown.

The Zhang family has endured hardships, and the conditions five years ago were even worse than those of the Xia family.

There is no condescending, let alone looking down on anyone, there are many common languages, when Wu Xiulan sighed and talked about the charter is also a hard-working child, she has no father since she was a child, and she dropped out of school to sell "Yellow Osmanthus" at a young age, Tian Qiuju couldn't help but shed two lines of tears. After chatting about the charter, talking about Xia Yao, chatting about Zhang Hui, chatting about Zhang Hui and talking about Xia Ning, you say a word to me, the two are like a pair of old sisters who have been reunited for a long time, there are always so many endless words.

The ugly daughter-in-law is afraid to see her in-laws, and the handsome daughter-in-law is also afraid to see her in-laws. Xia Yao blushed when she saw Wu Xiulan, for fear that she would ask about her and the charter, and seeing that the two of them were chatting hotly, she simply took the door and came to the second floor.

Zhang Lin, who was talking to the eldest sister, hurriedly got up and said, "Xia Yao, why didn't you sleep so late yesterday?" ”

Seeing Zhang Hui looking at herself with a smile, Xia Yao blushed again, and replied hesitantly: "Shengpu, sleep...... Sleep...... Can't sleep. ”

"Sit, sit next to my sister, and talk to my sister for a while."

Thinking of the more than a month of getting along day and night, and remembering the words she had said, Xia Yao felt her face hot, and said timidly: "Big ...... Big...... Sister, you ...... You...... You've made me so miserable. ”

Zhang Hui snorted and said, "Sister, I'm afraid of ruining the ordinary love between the two of you, and besides, we don't get along very well." ”

Xia Yao peeked at her, pouted and muttered, "You are the special director of the foundation, and even Principal Lu has to be careful to serve." How dare I offend a little teacher? ”

"Sister, can't you make amends for your crimes?" Zhang Hui seemed to think of something. Hurriedly pulled out a thick envelope from the small bag. Stuffed it into her hand and said in an unquestionable tone: "Before you got married, they were all children, this is the New Year's money that your brother-in-law gave you, Linlin, Xiaozhu, Xiaojun, and Xiaolian all have a share, not for you alone." ”

"Mine is here," for fear that she wouldn't believe it, Zhang Lin took out the red envelope and shook it, and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law is the big boss." Don't give the New Year's money in vain. ”

Yesterday, she had already received a big red envelope from her future mother-in-law, and today there is still one, Xia Yao was very embarrassed, and her face was red with shame.

The relationship is confirmed, and then it is hypocritical to shirk it, not to mention that she went upstairs to express her gratitude, and she couldn't forget the business, so she simply accepted it generously and said sincerely: "Eldest sister, second sister, because of my mother's illness." Let you have a bad year in a row, although you don't thank you for your great kindness. If you don't say something, I don't have a taste in my heart......"

"What do you say about the family?" Zhang Hui interrupted: "Besides, for us, it's the same when we are not at home for the New Year, anyway, they are all busy outside, and they don't have time to sit with us and have a good meal." ”

"Where's little Jiahui?"

When he mentioned his son Zhang Hui, he was angry, and said indignantly: "Isn't 97 coming, her aunt immigrated to Canada, his grandparents have never been there, I have always wanted to go and see, and I want to celebrate the New Year with my grandson." I have no problem with taking the child abroad to open my eyes, but they just don't tell me, they complain to your brother-in-law, as if I am quite unreasonable, if it is not for the fear that your brother-in-law is caught in the middle and it is difficult to do, I have to bring the child. ”

"Went to Canada?"

"Well, I left on the twenty-eighth of the lunar month, and I called yesterday morning."

When it comes to the sensitive relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Xia Yao didn't want to set herself on fire, so she quickly diverted the topic: "Sister, is the company very busy?" ”

"It's very busy, this year the vacation has been canceled, and everyone is working overtime." Zhang Hui grabbed a handful of peanuts and snorted at Zhang Lin: "I don't care about their business, and I won't make trouble for them, what are you busy with, your second sister knows." ”

Xia Yao asked curiously, "What are they busy with?" ”

Zhang Lin smiled and said slowly: "The company's main business has entered a bottleneck period, there is not enough performance, no brand influence, and it is difficult to compete with opponents. Therefore, we must take the edge of the sword, start from other businesses, drive the development of the main business, and cultivate our own brand. ”

One by one, I don't know what she was talking about, Zhang Hui scolded with a smile: "Don't chew the words, is it okay to say something about people?" ”

Zhang Lin was anxious, and pretended to be angry and complained: "I don't learn how to say me, and I learn to learn from you and talk about me." Sister, how can there be someone like you? Still don't let people live? ”

"Okay, good, my sister is wrong, my sister is uneducated, I can't understand what you say, let's talk about it simply, and we can understand it."

"That's pretty much it."

Zhang Lin grimaced and patiently explained: "High-voltage products are our development direction, and this has never wavered or changed. But the more upstream we do, the higher the requirements of customers for the company, they want to see how much performance we have in safe operation, but we are a new company, it is impossible to have so much performance.

Customers without performance do not give us orders, and there is no possibility of performance without orders, which falls into a vicious circle. There are only three 110KV main transformers for power transformers, and none of the electric furnace transformers, isolation transformers, and rectifier transformers have been opened, let alone 220KV and above.

The same goes for high-voltage cables and generator sets, we have enough technical reserves and enough start-up capital, but we don't dare to start easily, because we have to think about who to sell to before we last have a new project. It's not that there is no way at all, Vietnam has a few main transformer procurement plans, but the substation has a preparation and construction cycle, and their efficiency is very slow, counting on those few units to be energized and run for at least one or two years. ”

When her sweetheart's career encountered setbacks, Xia Yao was more nervous than anyone else: "Then what should I do?" Is it just a year or two to wait? ”

"Of course you can't wait," Zhang Lin shook his head, and said with a smug smile: "So my brother-in-law and San'er decided to go off the rails, first on the color TV and display project, borrowed seven or eight hundred million, started construction in a few days, put it into production at the end of the year, and will be able to launch our own color TV and computer monitor next year." ”

Xia Yao was confused, and blurted out: "What does this have to do with high-pressure products?" ”

"Cultivating a brand,It's equivalent to advertising,To be precise, color TV is just an incidental product,The process of building a factory and the future NB computer is the main product。 We have the core technology, can quickly open the market, when the time comes to bundle sales, if you want the best display you have to buy NB computer, as long as NB computer in the market to gain a firm foothold, then who will question NB electric's technical strength?

Wait for the NB computer to occupy a certain market share, and then like the NB electrician, OEM glass shells and shadow covers for peers. The funds are quickly withdrawn, and other people's money is used to advertise themselves, why not? ”

Zhang Hui also heard about these things for the first time, and nodded as if she didn't understand.

Xia Yao didn't understand at all, she only knew that in addition to the CT project, Lu Dao's sweetheart also had to engage in color TVs and computers, and after thinking about it, she asked, "Second sister, what happened to the process of building the factory?" ”

It seems that to popularize some basic knowledge for her, Zhang Lin sorted out her thoughts and said step by step: "High-voltage products not only refer to real equipment, but also invisible and intangible automatic control systems. We don't have the opportunity to test the field, so we can only use the projects we have invested in as a test field.

This is exactly what the Berlin waste incineration plant does, but the performance is too small and not representative to prove our know-how and strength in the field of automation and control. Therefore, NB Electronics, which is about to break ground, will become the second test field of the Systems Engineering Laboratory, the Technology Application Laboratory, the Engineering Colleges of several universities in Hong Kong, the Institute of Optoelectronics of Hong Kong University, the Institute of Electrical Automation of Andong Institute of Technology, the NB Laboratory in Berlin and the Taiwan R&D Center. ”

"What to test?"

"Try the flexible manufacturing technology and build an automated factory, which is the smart factory in the science fiction movie."

Zhang Hui asked incredulously, "Can you do it?" ”

The "Klinsmann's Friends Association" is a huge talent pool, and the Hong Kong NB Laboratory has not been a dry meal in recent years, not to mention the full support of several universities in Hong Kong, Xiangjiang University and the Institute of Electrical Automation of Anton Institute of Technology.

Zhang Lin was full of confidence, and said with a fluttering eyebrow: "In 82 years, the Japanese Fanuc company built an automated motor processing workshop composed of 50 industrial robots and a three-dimensional warehouse, nearly 60 flexible manufacturing units, as well as two automatic guided trolleys to transfer blanks and workpieces, and even an unmanned motor assembly workshop. They could have done it 8 years ago, what can't we do for it?

What's more, we have machinery and equipment manufactured by NB industry, PLC, inverter, Ethernet and fieldbus in the system engineering laboratory, automation control software of Ansoft, servo motor and servo system of NB motor, human-machine interface and display instrument of NB instrumentation, single-chip microcomputer and other chips of Taiwan R&D center, low-voltage electrical appliances and high-voltage inverter ...... of NB Electric.

Smart factory, as soon as you hear it, you know that it is high-tech.

Xia Yao was stunned, and after a long pause, she muttered to herself, "How much does this cost to invest?" ”

Zhang Lin smiled casually: "The total budget is 400 million US dollars, and now the loan is only the upfront funds, as for the follow-up funds...... San'er must have a way. It seems like a lot, but compared with a sample project that can prove the strength of NB electrical industrial control, this investment is still worth it, and the factory can still be profitable after it is completed and put into operation. ”

This account Zhang Hui can calculate clearly, shook his head and said with a wry smile: "This sample project is really not cheap, how many color TVs and monitors do you have to sell to earn back the capital?" ”

Zhang Lin shook his head with a smug face: "I said that color TVs and displays are just incidental products, and as soon as the smart factory is completed, our industrial control products will be able to open the market." Not only can we sell PLCs, inverters and servo motors, but we can also provide automation solutions. More importantly, as soon as the factory was put into operation, we became another color TV production line provider after the United States, Japan, Germany and South Korea.

Sister, how much money does it make selling a color TV, and how much money can you make by selling a production line? This is a business of hundreds of millions of dollars, what the hell is San'er, one ring after another, interlocking, can you think of it? (To be continued......)
