CHAPTER 215: SINGULUS

After waiting for three days, Lorraine still hasn't upgraded, from the 20-level base to the 19-level base, it costs 100 million kilowatt-hours of electricity, these electricity, in fact, are not expensive, 30 million yuan, but it is inconvenient to steal so much electricity.

Huang Xuan asked for too much, and he didn't feel that he used a brush for energy on weekdays, but when he wanted to use a huge amount of energy, he was overstretched.

It's like many working families, it's not impossible to buy beautiful clothes and eat at a hotel, and life is not bad on weekdays, but if you ask him to buy a house or a car, then he can't pick it out.

Huang Xuan is now, in fact, the working class among travelers, a level 18 traveler, and he is about to step out of the boundary of low-level travelers. He still has a base of his own, which is said to be more nourishing than many high-level travelers, but really compared to strength, the energy that people can apply for in the high-level base can be rebuilt with atomic structures to recreate Lorraine and Nick, 100 million kilowatt-hours of electricity, that is 50,000 energy circles, and in the R plane, I dare not say that I am rich.

For Lorraine, base security is a first-order requirement, and if the first-order requirement is violated in order to upgrade, the brain will not do such a mindless thing - although he has no brains in the first place. Although Huang Xuan had some regrets, he also wanted to comfort Lorraine: When the oil arrives in Hong Kong, we will drink it directly, who won't let us drink, who will be in a hurry, and he will die in a hurry, and he won't let him, we won't even make a fist, so we will drink the oil ourselves.

Lorraine actually doesn't matter, he is a smart brain, upgrading is the best, even if he doesn't rise, everything follows the order of the base, and getting it is an important factor to ensure the safety of the base, so if you can make money, you can postpone the upgrade, and he doesn't need Huang Xuan to comfort him. If this upgrade of the base level was the first sequence, he would have already emptied Brazil's electricity, and Huang Xuan's persuasion would be useless.

Huang Xuanyi comforted that it didn't matter, Lorraine didn't comfort the effect, Nick was jealous, and said I also want to upgrade, as long as I prepare the materials and rebuild a level 17 or 16 base, and then the upgrade will be successful.

People are also plane bases, there is a plane base of "sex", Huang Xuan didn't have a problem, listened to the string of numbers, and promised: "Then why don't you wait, wait until we have so much energy, and then you will notify me?" ”

Nick stupidly agreed. He didn't understand, "notify me", this is nonsense.

After solving the problem of energy, Modeste's phone also called, his voice was tired, if it was a video call, he could still see the two dark circles under his eyes as big as his eyes, and directly said, "Everything is ready." ”

Huang Xuan said that he had worked hard, so he said, "Send the materials to the last few warehouses." ”

Modiste is indeed hardworking, he can be regarded as a local snake in São Paulo, but he is also familiar with the transportation industry, and now he is allowed to buy things everywhere and play import and export trade - thanks to the many people he knows, many of them import and export traders, and he has plenty of money in hand, even so, this variety of projects has also packed him up.

However, to be recognized by the BOSS, Modiste is quite beautiful in his heart. Cabraith is now a wholly-owned subsidiary, while Hexin Industrial is the core group, and being an executive in the group and being the president in a subsidiary are completely different.

Huang Xuan's thoughts, he can also see some of it, the current Hexin Industry, the first vice president is Zhang Rong, which is considered a veteran, and Yu Tingli is also a veteran, but he is neither happy for the president, nor valued by Zhang Rong, it is equivalent to a wood carving and stone sculpture, but the rest is almost brought out by Zhang Rong.

It can be seen from the formation of the Chinese branch that although the boss is young, he is proficient in personnel, and the executives in the new company are almost all promoted newcomers, and even those who are transferred from the headquarters are also the original middle-level cadres.

This is Yangmou, Zhang Rong understands it, and he has to cooperate.

Because of this, Modiste desperately raised supplies, and he wanted to be the first executive designated by the boss to enter Hexin Industries. This is equivalent to the second generation of patriarchs.

Modiste was making his own calculations, and Huang Xuan was busy stealing his own things.

Most of the designated warehouses were bought by Huang Xuan later, either on the edge of the port or far away from the highway entrances and exits, so that they were not easy for others to see when they were picked up.

10,000 tons of grain, in fact, is easy to conceal, 500,000 tons of grain, it is not impossible, but this is cattle, sheep, and a large area of strained livestock, if you want to steal it, not aliens, really can't do it - if any logistics company, in one night, can transport 200,000 animals away without using the team above the battalion, this is almost the No.1 logistics company.

So Huang Xuan simply made a very ambiguous call to Modiste and said, "I'm going to transport things away recently, so you don't care, everyone can be withdrawn." ”

Then he went to the warehouse center alone.

Modiste covered his mouth tightly, he is a company executive, he knows Huang Xuan's background, just look at Huang Xuan's grandfather, mother, uncle, and a large number of cousins and uncles, you can understand that the Huang family and the Chinese "government" are inseparable.

In fact, he has long had such a guess, what do normal people do when they buy 500,000 tons of grain if they have nothing to do? And so many livestock. Only the "government", out of data or reality considerations, will buy some scarce materials - he will not think that Huang Xuan is a spy or the like, no matter from the analysis of assets or family background, a 3 billion billionaire can only be a spy occasionally, just like Mobil will also collect some information for the US "government", Microsoft provides some secret information to the Pentagon, it is a very normal behavior of large multinational companies, and only in this way can it be done for a long time.

There are more companies with a "government" background, and Modister has no impression of China, just like China's feelings about Equatorial Guinea.

Doesn't it mean that only those who share secrets are cronies? Modiste felt that he could work for another twenty years, and being a cronie was also a good path to promotion.

Huang Xuan and Dian Wei played with cow all night in Brazil, and finally sent 200,000 pigs, cattle and sheep with empty stomachs into the plane passage, and at that moment, clean clothes and refreshing air made people feel happy.

Stepping into the plane channel, although the company's affairs have been explained clearly, Huang Xuan also answered a phone call, which is the phone number of Wei Bell, the CEO of SINGULUS company, which is related to the email the day before, but it has nothing to do with it.

As mentioned earlier, this single-sided and double-layer BD production line is ruthless by SINGULUS, and it can be studied in three or two months, but it can be put to other companies and given him this technology, and there are not many prototypes that can be made in three or two months. So, this priority is reversed.

Another more important place is that the single-sided double-layer BD is 50G, and the single-sided single-layer BD is 25G, but the price of the former is 3 times that of the latter, that is, it is not cost-effective.

The current BD is mainly for Hollywood, which involves businessmen, and the cost factor is very important, for people nowadays, using two single-sided and single-layer BD discs may be more happy than using a single-sided and double-layer BD disc.

This is the reason why the technology of single-sided and double-layer is not complicated, but SINGULUS is not in a hurry to study it.

If there is a real need, three or two months is not a big deal.

But now, doesn't Huang Xuan really want it?

Therefore, Weber's call was made by email, but it was not because of email. He is interested in the company of Hexin and Huang Xuan.

The so-called interlacing is like a mountain, in terms of optical storage, SINGULUS is the absolute boss, OERLIKON can rank in the top three, this is the so-called leading enterprise, the world without these two companies, or more precisely, the world without SINGULUS company, the ball of optical storage, it just does not turn.

Whether it's BD, HD or DVD, whatever, just find a copycat factory in China, you can press tablets, but you have to let him produce a production line, not to mention China, the whole world, there are only two or three companies. Therefore, now Sony is the grandson of the SINGULUS company, and the SINGULUS company is still the uncle of Toshiba, a Japanese manufacturer, shouting that there is me without him, and turning his head to singulus, that is, winking, as if he did not know about it.

However, Huang Xuan came up with a single-sided and double-layer technology, and Webel became interested, he was born in the technology stream, just like most technology stream manufacturers, such a CEO can sensitively find even the slightest change in technology, although it is lagging behind in marketing. However, for them, marketing is inherently secondary, and who has ever seen IBM roar and play around the world? But IBM also never sleeps.

Looking at this email, Webel was worried and excited, excited as a technician, this is the world's leading technology, although many people have studied it, but it is precisely because there are more people who have studied it, it is not easy to be able to advance a little bit in advance.

WORRY, IS THE CEO'S WORRY, THIS IS AGAIN, SINGULUS COMPANY DOES NOT TAKE SINGLE-SIDED AND DOUBLE-LAYER TECHNOLOGY TO HEART, IT'S NOT THAT THEY REALLY DON'T TAKE IT TO HEART, CAN DIRECTLY STUDY IT, WHO DOESN'T WANT TO STUDY IT, LOCK IT IN THE SAFE AND REST ASSURED, AFTER ALL, IT IS STILL NOT ENOUGH, THERE MUST ALWAYS BE A PRIORITY, THEY SLOW DOWN THIS TECHNOLOGY, THAT IS, THEY BELIEVE THAT OELLIKON CAN'T STUDY IT, OERLIKON CAN'T STUDY IT, IT'S JUST THAT THERE IS NO FASTER COMPANY IN THE WORLD THAN SINGULUS, BUT NOW, THERE IS ONE.

SINGULUS believes that as long as there are 3 months and millions of dollars of investment, the single-sided and double-layer technology will come naturally, but this is what SINGULUS said - the leading enterprise of optical storage cannot be a little-known, just dead rich company, or China.

So, the more this way, the more worried Webel is, China is a big country, DVD consumption is the world's first, although most of them are pirated, China also has a super low-cost industrial system, copycat factories are also factories, is a perverted embodiment of the low-cost industrial system, that is the incomparable terrible spirit, when Sony is still thinking about how to reduce the cost of DVD to $1, Chinese have long been watching pirated Korean dramas for 5 yuan a plate, that is still the terminal price - even if that DVD can't watch it for half a year, it will squeak, Even if a DVD like that can be seen with the naked eye, it can be placed on any player except Sony's DVD.

Such a low-cost industrial system, and then such a technology, is already a terrible thing, and when Webel saw the information of Hexin Industrial, his worry became fear, 14 billion US dollars, or 14 billion US dollars of hot money to be used, as long as you read this word, any manager, will unconsciously tremble. Come to think of it, IBM is no exception.

In this way, Webel called Huang Xuan, instead of dragging it out for a week and a half as usual. He thinks that instead of hiding it, it is better to cooperate happily, SINGULUS is the boss of optical storage, but not the boss of the world, and it seems that Hexin Industry also hopes to cooperate, mechanical production is a relatively closed system, and it is also a system with huge investment, such a system has its own inertia.

Huang Xuan did think so, so as soon as Lorraine said that there was a phone call from the CEO of SINGULUS, he also connected to Webel with the electricity bill of $10 per minute in the plane channel.

"Mr. Huang, I have heard of it for a long time." This was Weber's first sentence, and he only read Mr. Huang to him, not Mr. Xuan, who was a man who had done his homework.

Huang Xuan was very happy that he didn't need to introduce himself, and said with a smile: "Mr. Weber, I have also heard a lot about you, such as the world-famous principle of relative impulse. ”

And what kind of person, what kind of words should be said, just like someone is a vassal of elegance, you should talk about elegance, some literati admire power, you should talk to him about current affairs and politics, some technicians become managers, but he still considers himself a technician, he should talk about the past, because the 50-year-old president, there will be nothing new to bake.

This does not need education, Huang Xuan's family environment has long been taught by words and deeds.

Of course, Webel was very happy, but he had something on his mind today, and in order to facilitate communication, he had an interpreter by his side, so it was not convenient to speak. So after saying a few words, he said bluntly: "I have read Mr. Huang's email, the exquisite design, the perfect production process, everything has been taken into account, and it is quite in line with the German industrial system, if it were not for the address you left, I would have thought it was the masterpiece of a German company." ”

In this way, of course, it is not pride, but a kind of praise in disguise, the industrial system of each country is different, when it is really produced, the industrial process should not be the same, for example, the **** produced in China mostly uses wooden butts, because the technology of engineering plastics is not up to par, of course, when designing, the same accessories, the origin is in Germany, German factories can naturally consider buying, maybe cheap and convenient, but if it is in China, you may have to imitate yourself, specific problems, There will be many encounters in production, and any one of them may cause costs to rise, or even block the continuation of production.

HUANG XUAN'S TECHNOLOGY COMES FROM SINGULUS'S TECHNOLOGY 3 YEARS LATER, WHICH IS ALREADY QUITE MATURE, OF COURSE, MANY OF THE PATENTS IN IT BELONG TO SINGULUS, WHICH IS ALSO THE REASON WHY WEIBEL WILL CALL URGENTLY, WHICH SHOWS THAT HUANG XUAN IS NOT READY TO START AGAIN.

After a few polite words, Huang Xuan could easily hear Wei Bell's urgency - people were not prepared to hide it at all, so Huang Xuan said generously: "Mr. Wei Bell, in fact, this document is going to be sent to SINGULUS Company." ”

What he said was quite technical, ready to be sent, but it was not sent yet, that is, waiting for the other party to submit the conditions, in the end, it was not a gift, but it sounded much better. Lorraine's translation is extremely accurate, such a translation, if it is an individual, dare to ask for 2,000 yuan per hour, and dare to say: cheap.

Webel heard clearly, turned around in his head, and asked, "What does Mr. Huang mean?" ”

"I WANT TO ORDER A BATCH OF PRODUCTION LINES AT SINGULUS, AND I AM GOING TO PRODUCE BD DISCS RECENTLY, BUT NOW IT SEEMS THAT YOUR COMPANY'S PRODUCTION CAPACITY IS STILL A LITTLE INSUFFICIENT. So, my idea was to monopolize the production line for the next three years. ”

OF COURSE, THE PRODUCTION CAPACITY WILL BE INSUFFICIENT, NOW IS STILL THE TIME WHEN BD HAS JUST BEGUN TO DEVELOP, SOME TIME THIS YEAR, SINGULUS ONLY CAME OUT OF THE FIRST PROTOTYPE, ACCORDING TO THE SIMILARITY OF THE PLANE, IN THE NEXT YEAR, THEIR ANNUAL PRODUCTION LINE SALES, IS ONLY ABOUT 17 UNITS, UNTIL 4 YEARS LATER, THE PRODUCTION CAPACITY WILL RISE TO 27 UNITS.

At the same time, of course, SINGULUS was also producing HD production lines for Toshiba. Wonderful world.

Webel was a little surprised, he knew that Huang Xuan's request was not small, but he didn't expect it to be so weird, with SINGULUS's current production capacity, if he got an exclusive contract, there would be no problem with producing 20 units a year, that would be 80 million US dollars, maybe there would be more, plus technical support, it could be described as a big order, but with so many production lines, it seems to be overcapacity for Hexin.

Of course, Mr. CEO couldn't ask this directly, so he had to knock on the side and say: "Mr. Huang, you know, we have a cooperation agreement with Sony, and the prototype is also produced in cooperation with Sony, so it is impossible to issue an exclusive contract." ”

"Sony wants, of course you can give it to them, but it must be in addition to meeting my requirements, if I know well, Sony should only need three production lines, right?"

This is already classified information, Wei Bell didn't say anything at once, Huang Xuan laughed twice, the German who laughed was confused, and said: "Mr. Wei Bell, my subordinate, Mr. Wang Hao, the production director of Hexin Industrial China Branch, will go to your company to inspect, and I hope you can receive it, and he will represent me for the specific contract." ”

Without having to make a decision immediately, Webel laughed, as for the previous gift, it was as if neither of them had heard of it.
