At the end of the year, the design office of Panshi Technology was opened to Changsha Science and Technology Park next to Wu Siying School. A total of five people, led by Sun Tongtong, all graduates of nearby universities, invited the dean and Qin Xiaoqing as advisors, but Wu Siying and Eric Zhao are still based in Dongguan, and they did not move to Changsha until the end of 2018.

Grandma Ye hired another helper, and after graduation, Xiao Ye found a job in Shenzhen Guannei with the help of Miao Yan, working as a financial specialist in a well-known foreign company. Because she has always refused to receive Panshi's salary, Chu Li bought a mini for her as her payment, Xiao Ye was very surprised, and in addition to gratitude, she still educated Director Chu for a long time, saying that it was difficult to do accounting and had to be deducted from the factory director's salary. In fact, the later finances were still helped by Xiao Ye, and there were never any problems. Her old Fit was scrapped, Xiao Ye went back to Dongguan every weekend to help the roast shop to buy, and stayed in the office of the rock project for two days, due to the employment relationship of the Shenzhen company, there was no contract between the company and the rock, Chu Li still insisted on paying Xiao Ye's salary according to the annual salary, and Xiao Ye had to "deduct from the factory director's salary" at Xiao Ye's request. Before Grandma Ye died, she resigned and returned to Dongguan to find another job as a financial manager in Nancheng, which was several years later.

Mr. Yu and Tang Mo had a large-scale cooperation with Panshi, and Panshi also began to produce in two shifts, and Chu Li began to live in the workshop again. However, the bed was placed in the empty room in the office building. At this time, Panshi began to take shape, and it was basically divided into three businesses.

The five workers brought by him to Liaobu Xu Wulin's ICT fixture order introduced by Chunlai were specially processed in the No. 2 warehouse, which was the large warehouse of Churong Machinery that year. Eric Zhao is responsible for optimizing the design, and Chunlai is responsible for error correction and repair. Two of the five workers are electronics engineers with bachelor's degrees, and the remaining three are also journeymen. Circuit board outsourcing, SMD outsourcing. Night shifts are arranged as needed.

TMK's manipulator order is also the most profitable business, Chu Li followed up by himself, Chen Cheng took five people to use the assembly line, according to the process of processing. Wu Siying and Chen Tongtong are responsible for design and optimization, Wen Qinzuo and an Italian engineer spend one-third of the year in Dongguan to help coordinate, test and check the quality, and Chunlai is responsible for the installation and commissioning of TMK. It is mainly assembled and tested in the main warehouse, and painted and packaged in the third warehouse. Night shifts are arranged as needed.

The most noisy, Mr. Yu and Tangmo Battery Factory's fixtures and fixtures, Li Wansheng's TMK assembly, test fixtures, arranged in the No. 1 warehouse farthest from the No. 2 and No. 3 warehouses for processing and testing. Packing in warehouse No. 3. Half of the material warehouse in the No. 1 warehouse is still retained, and this part has the largest number of personnel, with Li Shunchi and Qian Yingqing leading a total of 20 people respectively. Divided into day shifts and night shifts for rotational production.

Wu Ran is still responsible for the final verification and shipment of work orders, taking into account the factory facilities. Chu Li hired two people from the joint defense team where Dai Qiang stayed before to be full-time security guards.

Ye Han counted that in 2017, the turnover of Panshi Engineering was more than 40 million, and the gross profit was tens of thousands. Chunlai's salary and commission are 530,000 yuan, Wu Siying's salary is 250,000 yuan, and there are 43 employees left, with a salary of 5.3 million yuan and a net profit of 2.63 million yuan after tax.

At this time, Chu Li and Chunlai, Wu Siying, and Xiao Ye agreed that the future direction of Panshi is not ICT, not manipulators, not fixtures for battery factories, and not the business outsourced by Li Wansheng, but to provide automation process solutions for small and medium-sized enterprises. With these years of experience, we have skillfully used different technological processes, coupled with the optimization and integration of the design team, to tailor the most suitable automation solutions for all walks of life, reduce costs and improve quality. Chu Li used all his connections to open up a lot of industries, and another person played a huge role, that is, Qin Xiaoqing, she used the student's network in Changsha to win a lot of customers for the design center, although the scale is very small, but it is the effect that Chu Li hopes - with a variety of different industry processes, technology accumulation, technology backup, reserves, in the future will be mature to as long as there are customers to put forward needs, Rock Engineering can provide the fastest solution. Although there have been some downturns, and it seems to be almost unprofitable to the layman, everyone knows that it is a process of accumulation and everyone is very motivated.
