The other end.
Province City.
Developnt Zone.
Qihe Town.
Dongtan.
After Qin Yugang finished a eting in town, he stopped by here; this is the largest warehouse of Hummingbird Business Storage in the Province City. According to the plan, Qihe Town will soon be divided into the district and beco a street.
Looking at the orderly construction site.
Qin Yugang recalled the conversation with Tang Qing during Chinese New Year.
"Tangtang, just that warehouse in the Developnt Zone, to ensure shipping speed, you need to hire at least six thousand people." At that ti, Qin Yugang had mixed feelings about this number.
On one hand.
He hoped to create more jobs.
On the other hand.
This goes against the business goal of ’cost-saving’.
"Six thousand people? No need for so many."
"Then how many?"
"A little over a thousand will suffice. Six thousand people, that’s for one province. Uncle, if following your calculation, wouldn’t my nationwide warehouses and logistics need about fifty to sixty thousand people? I’m not sure I can afford that."
"How could that be enough?"
"It’s completely enough; I will use large-scale automation equipnt. For the provincial warehouse, a little over a thousand people is sufficient. I’m planning to control the number of official employees of dostic Hummingbird Business Storage between 150,000 and 200,000."
"Whether it’s for long-haul transportation or the last mile, most of the business will be outsourced to major logistics and courier companies. We ourselves will not hire too many courier personnel."
"I’ve already commissioned soone to develop the automation solution; I’ve been involved and following up myself. By the ti we purchase the land and build the factory building, this equipnt should be almost ready to develop."
"How much will the equipnt cost?"
"Estimating around ten billion RMB."
"..."
A little over a thousand people.
Can run this gigantic factory in front of him; Qin Yugang could only marvel at how technology changes the world. Although it created far fewer jobs, but with such a scale, it could be comparable to ten Jingdong warehouses combined.
Relying solely on people.
Would indeed be troubleso.
...
February 20th.
United States.
Seattle.
A famous technological city, ho to Amazon’s headquarters and Boeing’s assembly center, a main manufacturing center in the western, northern part of the United States.
Of course.
It’s also where Microcrystalline Technology’s headquarters is located.
City center.
Manlehui Exhibition Center.
Early in the morning.
Various major dia in the United States gathered here.
With invitation letters, other experts and peers with various purposes also ca, wanting to witness firsthand the second product launch event hosted by that magical Chinese person.
What was the first one?
Of course, it was Epoch.
Today,
that launch event is truly defined as the start of smartphones, while Steve Jobs’... well... let’s call it a smartphone, can only be described as a ’curious’ artifact.
No choice.
The ti between the two launch events was too short.
Too short for Tang Qing to be copying Steve Jobs’ Apple; he was already ahead of Jobs, and naturally, Jobs’ Apple was defined as a ’premature malford child’.
Epoch.
Was the product that started the smartphone era.
"Zhou, is there a surprise today?"
"Yes."
"I’m looking forward to it."
"..."
"Mr. Zhou, are you free after the launch event? Let’s sit down sowhere."
"I’m afraid not today, maybe next ti."
"..."
Zhou You, as the host, exchanged pleasantries with so industry leaders. Seeing these Westerners trying to get close, Zhou You felt proud, especially when he saw the boss of his previous company, his mood was even more pleasant.
The ceiling.
A common issue with Arican companies.
It’s hard for Chinese to stand out.
Now.
The company has its own core technology, no need to look at these people’s faces. Seeing their envious expressions one by one, Zhou You felt satisfied internally but did not show it; just being happy inside is enough.
"Hello, Mr. Zhou."
At this mont.
A female Chinese journalist ca up and smiled at Zhou You.
"Hello," Zhou You responded.
"I’m a journalist from Xinhua News Agency, Shen Bing. After the launch, could you give us an opportunity for an exclusive interview? I know you’re busy, but it won’t take long, just half an hour."
"Do you have an appointnt?" Zhou You asked.
"We did, but your company hasn’t responded yet," Shen Bing nodded and said.
"Well... alright."
Dostic journalist.
Zhou You was, of course, happy to oblige.
"Thank you."
"You’re welco."
When the ti arrived.
Amidst a piece of music.
Zhou You walked onto the stage.
With so words of gratitude.
He handed the stage over to Tang Qing; as seen in previous videos, Tang Qing’s body gradually ford from light points. Since the number of attendees wasn’t very large, Tang Qing used a 1:2 ratio.
"So big."
"If it’s not big enough, it’s unclear."
"Air projection has really been conquered."
"How on earth did they do it?"
"I really want to buy one right away."
"..."
After the buzz.
Tang Qing spoke.
"Thank you all for coming to the product launch event of Microcrystalline Technology, and those watching the live broadcast. In half an hour, you will be glad for your luck to beco the first batch of witnesses."
These words.
Piqued everyone’s curiosity.
Looks like there is sothing new.
"Previously, I’ve used parts of holographic image functionality in so public places, like what you’re seeing now, zooming in and out. And also, actually I’m speaking Chinese."
Upon hearing this.
"Ho."
A German person exclaid, "It’s really Chinese; I noticed the speech speed sotis fast, sotis slow, turns out it’s the difference in the number of syllables, directional audio translation, I’ve witnessed it."
"Impressive."
"No need to worry about language barriers in company etings anymore."
"..."
The scene instantly beca lively, and so did the people watching the live broadcast. Since the live broadcast is global, major language countries’ real-ti translations were achieved based on their national IPV4 segnts.
After a mont.
Tang Qing continued.
"This is not actually the technology of Microcrystalline Technology; Microcrystalline Technology only covers the optics part. The acoustics part is provided by QingYang Audio, and the simultaneous translation is evolved from Xiao Xiao’s intelligent translation."
"This is an era where cooperation is mainstream; no single company can fully master all technologies. Cooperation plus innovation has led to the integrated products we see now."
After speaking.
A device image appeared on the screen behind Tang Qing.
Everyone looked.
It was like those devices they hadn’t seen before hanging around, then it flashed twice, showing a bar-shaped and a round device, and finally, the three devices were lined up in a row.
"These are Microcrystalline Technology’s three new products, Cara Projection Type, Bar Projection Type, and Fixed-point Projection Type. Each has a different application scenario, and they can also be used in combination."
"Their na is—Ti."
Ti.
The na is quite ordinary.
If there’s any aning, it doesn’t fully match the functionality of holographic images, but Tang Qing didn’t think too much about it, as he suddenly rembered a phrase when naming it.
--- Don’t waste good tis.
Therefore.
This na was chosen, and he even thought of the advertisent slogan.
Ti.
Does not disappoint.
