Chapter 60: A Legend
Shirakawa Electric's first formal meeting, in addition to unanimously passing the decision to upgrade the Blackstone record player.
In addition, Shirakawa Kaede also plans to reorganize the technology department into the R&D department, led by Masaaki Yasuda, asking people to give people and money to money.
In the past, the role of the technical department in the Blackstone record player was more like an after-sales maintenance department, and the only thing that could be used was probably to have two brushes in the mechanical design.
As for the electronics, which is completely dependent on overall procurement, Yasuda can only cope with the partial adjustment of the circuit. As for the deeper circuit solution, Shirakawa Electric does not have this ability at all.
In the future, if Shirakawa Kaede plans to build Shirakawa Electric into an enterprise with its own core competitiveness, then R&D capabilities are the top priority. What is the difference between no R&D capabilities and copycat workshops and OEM factories.
In addition, the framework of finance, personnel, and procurement should also be set up as soon as possible, and this part of Komatsu's assistants is urgently recruiting. Although the company is small, it must be there, so as not to be in a hurry in the future.
The first step here is to change the supplier and resume the production of the original Blackstone record player.
Although I don't plan to use this brand again in the future, Shirakawa Kaede still needs it to keep the factory running.
And Shirakawa Kaede also discovered an embarrassing thing, that is, he had no money again.
35 million yen, 28 million to buy Watanabe Denki, and 7 million yen. In addition, he picked up garbage for more than a year before, and there were millions of them.
There are still about 15 million yen in the account, which looks like a lot. But don't forget, at the end of the year, he still has to pay 9 million yen in personal income tax.
The remaining millions are used to maintain the daily operation of Shirakawa Electric, material procurement, employee salaries, etc., and this part of the money must not be touched.
In 1979, the average annual salary of RB workers was about 2 million yen, or nearly 200,000 yen per month.
Shirakawa currently has nearly 30 employees, and the salary alone is a fixed expense of about 6 million yuan per month.
Therefore, he must ensure that in the next few months, Shirakawa Electric will start to make a profit, otherwise the cost of each month will drag him to death.
In this way, alas, there is no money again.
It's still going to be money.,With such distress, Shirakawa Kaede returned to the dormitory in Suginami District.。
It's just July, and the summer vacation is about to begin. Kiryu Eleven of Sao Bao has already started his annual summer vacation trip early with his girlfriend.
He came here today to find Daiji Yamashita, such a good fully automatic worker can't waste resources.
"Click" pushed the door of the dormitory, and Daiji Yamashita, who was wearing only pants, was sitting shirtless on the sofa, fiddling with something with his head down.
"Eh" was taken aback, Yamashita Daiji subconsciously covered his chest with his hands, and looked at the door in horror.
"Don't cover it, probably A cover" Shirakawa Kaede threw his backpack onto the sofa. Pick up the cans on the table casually, snap, look up, tons and tons ~
Hearing this, Yamashita Daiji's first reaction was to look down. Then he reacted, "Baga~, you guy is really excessive." ”
Shirakawa Kaede glanced at his white fat body, "Keep up the hard work and achieve Size C as soon as possible."
"Hey, don't go too far," Yamashita Daiji was angry.
Smack, Shirakawa Kaede took out a document and stuffed it directly into his arms. "Change the drawing, move the motor to the edge of the turntable, and change it to a belt drive. There is only one point required, earthquake resistance and reduced vibration interference. ”
Yamashita Daiji unfolded the drawings in a daze, and above it was a structural drawing of a record player, with dense dimensions marked around it.
"A turntable?" Yamashita Daiji looked at the drawings and began to mumble various technical terms.
I watched it for five minutes, and when he looked up and saw the scene on the sofa, he suddenly choked with anger.
Bai Chuan Kaede, who was still teasing him just now, had already fallen crooked on the sofa and was about to fall asleep.
Yamashita Daiji put down the drawings, picked up the cold soda on the table and quietly approached him. He carefully lifted Kaede Shirakawa's shirt, and then pressed the can close to his belly with lightning speed.
"Hiss~ha~" A clever Shirakawa Kaede jumped up directly, and Daiji Yamashita on the side laughed.
"Bastard" this guy's childish behavior, angry Shirakawa Kaede wants to throw him naked downstairs.
In the past few days, because of Shirakawa Electric, his busy feet do not touch the ground, and he can't help but doze off as soon as he sits down.
"Say, is there a problem?" Shirakawa Kaede, who rubbed his face, hadn't forgotten his business.
"Ahem..."Yamashita Daiji coughed reservedly, "Naturally, there is no problem, but..."He gestured to Shirakawa Kaede with a knowing look.
Yo, the fully automatic workers know to make a request.
Shirakawa Kaede rolled his eyes, "With your figure, you still want to be a drag racing party." ”
Yamashita has a wide range of hobbies, including records, manga, stamps, and more recently, he has become obsessed with Yamaha motorcycles. I want to like a sum of money to buy one, and then modify it myself.
"I don't have to ride, I just want to try my own ideas." Daiji Yamashita said it rightly.
"Okay, old rules, a noble Prince Shotoku."
"Deal"
Although Daiji Yamashita didn't know what Shirakawa Kaede was tossing, he knew that Shirakawa Kaede had his own way, so he didn't be polite to him at all.
In fact, Shirakawa Kaede doesn't have to be Daiji Yamashita, and this work can be done in one night. The reason why he came to Yamashita was to train him more.
The current Shirakawa Electric is basically the old man of Watanabe Electric, although there is no problem in execution. But he still wants to develop his team, especially the core positions.
He is used to thinking about a bad situation first, just in case.
After packing up the drawings, Yamashita Daiji was ready to go back to his room for retreat, which was not a good place to work.
When he casually picked up a small blue machine, a bright light flashed in Shirakawa Kaede's mind.
"Wait!"
"Eh" Yamashita Daiji was stunned in place.
Shirakawa Kaede stepped forward quickly and took the figure in his memory.
The blue body, the silver sides, and the iconic orange buttons. Compact and stylish, Sony's first-generation Walkman, TPS-L2!
"This is Sony's new music player launched today, and they call it the Walkman. I thought it was interesting and I bought one. Although Yamashita Daiji didn't understand why Shirakawa Kaede was so nervous about this product, he still explained.
"How much?" Shirakawa Kaede turned the fuselage and stroked it obsessively.
"33,000 yen" has been mixed with Shirakawa Kaede for a year, and Daiji Yamashita is also considered to have a small deposit, and he is a proper rich and handsome among students.
Hearing this price, Shirakawa Kaede sighed lightly. He raised his wrist and glanced at the time, July 1, 1979.
Today a great product came out that changed people's habits of listening to music. In the past, I could only listen to vinyl at home, but now I can go out of the house and go outside.
This is undoubtedly a revolutionary product, and Sony Dafa lives up to its name.
"Get dressed and come with me." Kaede Shirakawa put away his Walkman, put on his backpack, and prepared to go out.
"Eh" Yamashita Daiji was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly looked for clothes, "Where are you going?" Shirakawa-kun. ”
"Let's see if we can catch this revolutionary train from Sony," Shirakawa Kaede's voice came from far outside the door.
