Chapter Forty-Nine: The Flesh Factory Becomes History
"These guys are crazy, aren't they? All three million helmets were sold out overnight? This is the third batch of virtual reality access headsets on the shelves, right? ”
"Where is this? Now the price in the second-hand market is still maintained at 10 times the price! ”
Two employees who run online sales are smacking at the sales bump, and this is the first time they've seen a similar situation on tech that sells out tickets for a popular celebrity concert as soon as they hit the shelves.
Of course, there is no water army in this, real sales data!
"Second life!"
The younger employee lamented: "Virtual reality deserves this kind of publicity, and after I tried it once, I don't want to use the monotonous Internet again." ”
"And whether it's the learning, entertainment or game modules, it's addictive, especially ......"
The older employees shook their heads and smiled: "If you continue to blow it, we won't pay for advertising." ”
"And aren't you going to go to the factory with the doctor to accept the next batch of products? Is there enough time? ”
The young employees hurriedly began to pack up their things, and after a while, they left in a hurry, and a special car took them to the suburban high-tech park.
The small and flexible unmanned logistics vehicle is moving quickly through the wide factory building according to the remote control of the intelligent program, carrying boxes of goods and raw materials. Drones are whistling and shuttling in the air, completely replacing flesh and blood workers, adjusting all aspects of the production line.
The whole factory is like a steel monster, those logistics vehicles and drones are like blood cells flowing in the blood vessels, and the production workshops are like the organs of monsters.
From one production line to another, and then from one workshop to another, every gear is running at high speed, and every production link is so efficient, from raw materials to finished products, it has achieved a real sense of smooth production.
What's even more terrifying is that the young employees observed all the way that there was not a single worker in this park except for the patrol guards on the perimeter, and this is a truly fully automated factory.
Unless there is a systematic fault in the factory that cannot be ruled out, there is no need to enter the workers at all, and most of the maintenance of equipment such as drones, logistics vehicles and workshop production is completed by AI-controlled machines, and a small part is remotely accessed and repaired by engineers through virtual reality technology.
"What? Is it the first time to come to a fully intelligent automated factory? ”
The professor next to the young employee looked at him dumbfounded, and suddenly asked, "This is the entire assembly line of the virtual reality helmet here, guess how much production is in a day?" ”
vertex
In the eyes of young employees, the helmet that can be applied to virtual reality must be much more advanced than mobile phones in terms of materials and internal structure, and even if the assembly line is integrated, I am afraid the output will not be too high!
The young employee said with some uncertainty: "Ten thousand? Thirty thousand? ”
The professor shook his head and smiled: "Don't underestimate the fully intelligent and automated factory! Guess again. ”
"Fifty thousand!?"
The professor no longer sells guanzi: "Multiply it by ten!" If raw materials are sufficient, the plant can produce 500,000 virtual reality headsets and 100,000 virtual pods a day. ”
Young employees feel blown away, have they reached such a level of human productivity?
Helmets and virtual pods are probably the top tech products now, and this automated factory can maintain such a production speed!
If all the factories in the country are replaced by this model, I am afraid that the total production speed of all the factories in the world may not be comparable to the production speed of factories in one province of China.
Young employees can be absorbed into the zero base as the first batch of foreign talents to cultivate, of course, they have their own unique talents, at this moment he is keenly aware that there has been a generation gap between domestic and foreign productivity!
"The first three batches of virtual reality headsets are only produced by the headquarters factory, and with the completion of automated factories in various places, there will be no more sell-outs on the official website in the future."
The professor patted the young staff on the shoulder and encouraged: "Learn more, look more, intelligent automated factories will be the future of human beings, they will liberate us from tedious labor, and human beings will no longer get pneumoconiosis and .........heat stroke due to factory labor."
The young employee still couldn't hide his shock and replied: "I've only heard the concept before, but it's the first time I've seen it...... It's still shocking! I thought this was a scene that would only appear in science fiction works, but I thought it wouldn't be seen in reality until the interstellar age! ”
"Where is this?"
The professor looked at the orderly scene of various machinery outside through the car window, and said with emotion: "Real intelligent manufacturing......... Maybe the machines in one factory can compare with the production speed of one of our provinces, and human beings still have a long way to go! ”
Such an automated factory is not only shocking to young employees, but also to all organizations that are secretly following it.
As the young employees feel, this is already a super factory that beats the production level of a modern factory!
Although those organizations can't feel it intuitively, they can roughly estimate the speed of production from the materials and output products of the factory.
The more you know, the more scared you become.
For China, such factories will inevitably set off a round of industrial upgrading, and how many enterprises will be eliminated because they can't keep up with this change for various reasons?
For foreign countries,...... Many companies that operate mainly in Chengdu have felt as if their death is near, and they have not been spared after virtual reality technology has washed Silicon Valley to pieces, and with such production speeds, and with the near-free energy supply brought by nuclear fusion, Huaguo's goods will rule the entire Blue Star.
But what can it be?
The Chinese-dominated order has taken shape, and the United States even has to open its own market in order to stay in the federation.
For ordinary people, from today onwards, the factory will no longer be called a flesh and blood factory, and the factory that once disgusted Lu Yu may become a sweet spot in the new era.
In the future, China will no longer even need ordinary workers, because untrained humans will no longer be able to adapt to the production efficiency inside.
It only takes a team of more than a dozen engineers to run a huge factory, and they will become the new workers in the intelligent era, without having to work in a harsh production environment or take on heavy front-line work. (Note 1)
The flesh and blood factories that once consumed the will of mankind will be swept into the garbage heap at an accelerated pace, and the industrial system of the future will begin to sprout from here!
Note 1: New workers have indeed begun to sprout...... But it seems that they are all in state-owned enterprises.
