The black technology empire started with a debt of one billion

465 Chapter 480: Another way

December 2016, 3.

The renovation of Shenlan Industrial Park was finally completed this morning. Now the industrial park is divided into two areas. The first area is the office building area, and the second area is the factory area apartments, because the car factory will soon recruit workers to work on site. .

At that time, 2 people will enter the factory to work. If the office area is not isolated, the safety of the laboratory cannot be guaranteed.

Although the safety level of the laboratory is no worse than that of the Hexagon Building in the United States.

However, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, the two areas should be completely separated.

"Ding~dong"

After the elevator door opened, Jiang Junlin walked out of the elevator with a cheerful expression on his face.

"Lao Jiang is here." Cao Mang said as he stood up from his seat and walked towards the tea table.

"Mr. Cao." After greeting Jiang Junlin, he also walked towards the tea table.

After the two sat down, Cao Mang began to make tea.

"Mr. Cao, the factory is expected to recruit 18000 employees this time. The basic salary of grassroots employees is set at 3500 yuan, and performance bonuses are all calculated based on KPIs." Jiang Junlin Balabala began to introduce.

However, Cao Mang couldn't help but frown when he heard Jiang Junlin's introduction.

Because the treatment offered by Jiang Junlin was no different from Yang Bailao.

Accommodation is charged separately, and workers are charged separately for meals. Workers are paid for social security but not provident funds, and they still have to work 10 hours a day.

What is the difference between this working condition and Foxconn’s sweatshop?

"Old Jiang, our Deep Blue Technology is not a sweatshop. You are doing me injustice by doing this. If this matter goes online, the reputation of Deep Blue Technology will be completely ruined. You have been working at Deep Blue for several months. , you know very well how Deep Blue treats its employees." Cao Mang said with a sigh.

"Mr. Cao, the salaries of domestic car manufacturers are all customized in this way. If we further improve workers' benefits, the company will have to spend at least a lot more money every month." Jiang Junlin said.

Cao Mang also knew that Jiang Junlin did this for the benefit of the company, but Cao Mang didn't intend to let him do it.

"Old Jiang, the profits of Deep Blue's products have always been low. For the company, it's nothing more than making more money and less money. So what if it makes less money? Besides, other factories are doing this by profiteers. It doesn't mean that Deep Blue will ask for help. They learn.

Deep Blue has always been unconventional. If Deep Blue had learned from them since its establishment, how could Deep Blue have developed to this point.

The basic salary of grassroots workers is set at 5000 yuan, and performance bonuses are calculated separately. Five social insurances and one fund are indispensable. You should study the labor law carefully later. The provident fund regulations have already stated that companies should purchase housing provident funds for their employees.

This should and must have the same meaning, but some people have misinterpreted it. Should is not something you can buy or not buy.

There is no need to charge employees accommodation fees if they live in dormitories, and the canteen should be open to all employees free of charge.

The working hours of employees are set at 8 hours a day, and no grassroots employees are allowed to work overtime. Overtime for management is calculated at 1.5 times the basic salary. "Cao Mang said while washing the tea.

Jiang Junlin took a breath when he heard Cao Mang's words. If he really wanted to do as Cao Mang said, the factory would have to support at least 7000 to [-] million more yuan every month, and the factory would have to spend at least [-] to [-] million more yuan in a year.

This number is just the number he calculated in his mind, and the actual expenditure may be higher than this number.

If all 1.8 employees are calculated based on a basic salary of 5000 yuan, the basic salary alone will cost 9000 million yuan a month. If five insurances, one housing fund, food and accommodation are also included, the factory’s monthly expenditure will be at least 1.6 million yuan, which is about 20 million yuan a year. The factory's salary expenditure alone reached [-] billion.

But the boss has spoken and there is nothing he can do.

"Okay, Mr. Cao," Jiang Junlin said.

“In addition, buy commercial insurance for each employee that covers the whole family. If Deep Blue Insurance has this kind of insurance, then buy the insurance from Deep Blue Insurance. If Deep Blue Insurance does not have such insurance, go out and buy insurance.

I want everyone in China to know that Deep Blue Technology’s treatment is the best in the country. "Cao Mang poured out the washed tea and poured hot water back into it.

Jiang Junlin was taken aback when he heard Han Chen's words. He didn't expect that Han Chen would even buy insurance for his employees, and the treatment of grassroots civil servants was not as good as that of Deep Blue.

"I understand." Jiang Junlin replied.

"Have the equipment in the factory been tested? Are there any problems with the equipment?" Cao Mang asked after pouring him a cup of tea.

Although the car-making equipment had been in the factory for a month, Cao Mang did not go to the site for on-site inspection. He left everything to Jiang Junlin.

"All the equipment has been tested, and no problems have been found so far. As long as the R&D department finalizes the final shape, the factory can start mass production. According to estimates, it only takes 98 seconds to produce a car. The factory can produce 7500 cars in one day when it is fully operational. Cars or so.

However, this is just an estimate. The initial workers are not skilled enough and the production efficiency may be lower.

Once the workers become familiar with it, there will be no problem with the production capacity of 7500 vehicles a day. Jiang Junlin said after taking a sip from the teacup.

"Very good." Cao Mang nodded.

Of course, 98 seconds to produce an electric car is not considered fast. Cao Mang remembers that Tesla only takes 48 seconds. The reason why Deep Blue takes 50 seconds longer is because Deep Blue’s frame is not completely integrated. There are many The place also requires a robotic arm for welding.

"Have you contacted all suppliers?" Cao Mang asked again.

"The suppliers have been contacted and can supply goods at any time." Jiang Junlin replied.

Then Cao Mang chatted with the other party for half an hour before letting the other party leave.

Not long after Jiang Junlin left, Wang Xiaoyuan brought a man in his 30s to Cao Mang's office.

The man has a square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes. He is 1.8 meters tall and very strong.

The man's name is Xu Honglie, who is the person in charge of the new project. Before joining Deep Blue, he was the vice president of Car Rental in China. Wang Xiaoyuan offered him 1.5 times his current salary. In addition, Deep Blue Group is the largest technology company in China. After receiving Wang Xiaoyuan's offer He hesitated for three days before agreeing to join the job.

"Mr. Cao, this is Xu Honglie." Wang Xiaoyuan introduced.

"Hello, Xu Honglie." Cao Mang shook hands with the other party.

"Hello, Mr. Cao." Xu Honglie shook hands with Cao Mang.

Then the three of them sat down at the tea table.

"I believe Xiaoyuan has already told you about Shenlan Car Rental. I need you to establish taxi companies in major cities across the country within three months. I wonder if three months is enough?" Cao Mang asked. They said after pouring tea.

"Mr. Cao, three months is enough time, but I have a question. Deep Blue Technology has always been engaged in the high-tech industry. Why did it suddenly think of entering the car rental industry?" Xu Honglie asked very curiously. "I believe you should know about Deep Blue Technology's car manufacturing. Deep Blue Technology can be said to be a newbie in the automotive industry. If you want Deep Blue's cars to stand out, you have to spend a lot of money on advertising and marketing. In addition to marketing, you also have to make customers practical. Experience the goodness of dark blue cars.

So I plan to find another way to make the first batch of dark blue electric cars become taxis.

Imagine if the streets were full of dark blue electric cars, and users could take a taxi and take a ride on a dark blue electric car. Isn't this much better than spending money on advertising?

Moreover, it only takes three to five years for these investments to pay back. After the payback, these electric vehicles will earn pure profits.

So, isn't this a very good investment? "Cao Mang said after pouring tea for Xu Honglie.

Xu Honglie thought to himself that the new boss's idea was really strange. This would indeed give Deep Blue Motors a good publicity, but the amount invested was something that most companies could not afford. Without a cash of 700 to [-] billion, it would not be possible at all. Arrived.

It is estimated that few people except his new boss, the richest man in China, would be willing to do this.

"Mr. Cao, how many electric vehicles do you plan to use as taxis across the country?" Xu Honglie asked after silence.

"I plan to invest 30 Deep Blue cars. You can decide how many to put in each city. In addition, you also need to find a place to replace the batteries. The first batch of Deep Blue electric cars can have batteries replaced.

Replacing a battery takes about 90 seconds to complete. I will send the specific information to your email later. "Cao Mang said after picking up the tea cup and taking a sip.

Xu Honglie wondered if he heard it wrong. The new energy electric vehicle can even change the battery, and it only takes 90 seconds to change the battery.

"Mr. Cao, what's going on with this battery replacement?" Xu Honglie asked curiously.

"Have you ever played with a toy four-wheel drive when you were a child? Changing the battery is just like replacing a toy four-wheel drive, except that it is replaced on the car chassis. The design department has developed automatic replacement tram equipment. The battery replacement station equipment is like an automatic car wash. The equipment is about the same size.

A battery swap station only requires [-] to [-] square meters.

After the electric vehicle runs out of power, they do not need to go home to recharge. They only need to go to the battery swap station to replace the battery. " Cao Mang said.

Xu Honglie took a breath of air when he heard Cao Mang's introduction. It only takes 90 seconds to replace a battery. This is more convenient than refueling a fuel vehicle. Moreover, the cost per kilometer of electric vehicles is cheaper than that of fuel vehicles. Taxis like this will definitely be launched on the market. Will be popular with taxi drivers.

Originally, he was worried that it would be difficult to rent out Shenlan's electric cars due to charging problems, but the company has now completely solved this problem. It can be said that he is not worried at all about renting a car.

The reason why Cao Mang adopted the method of battery replacement is to solve the problem of charging piles.

You must know that new energy vehicles have just developed, and charging piles are still being laid out. If the problem of charging electric vehicles is not solved, it will still be very difficult to use electric vehicles as taxis. After all, taxi drivers cannot spend seven or eight dollars. hours to charge.

These seven or eight hours are enough for them to make a lot of money. Without this time loss, they can make more, and they are more willing to rent Deep Blue electric cars.

As for how to replace the power station and how to layout it, that is Xu Honglie's problem. Otherwise, why would the company spend so much money to hire him to operate it?

"The company's battery swapping technology is so awesome. It will be just around the corner for electric taxis to replace fuel vehicles." Xu Honglie exclaimed.

"When the company's cars are mass-produced and you come to the company, you will probably be even more surprised by the car-building process. Today the director of the car factory came to report to me. They evaluated the car-building process. The company's manufacturing process It only takes 98 seconds for the car factory to build a car." Cao Mang said with a smile.

"How is this possible?" Xu Honglie said in surprise.

What an international joke.

It only takes 98 seconds to build a car?

This speed of building a car has far exceeded his knowledge. You must know that he studied automotive mechanical engineering. In his knowledge, the fastest time to build a car is 30 minutes. How could it be possible to build it in 98 seconds? a car.

"You'll know when the time comes." Cao Mang said with a slight smile without saying anything more.

Compared with Tesla's 40 seconds to produce a car, Deep Blue's production speed is much slower.

Cao Mang's words can be said to have completely refreshed Xu Honglie's three views. It is not unreasonable for Deep Blue to rise in such a short period of time. The innovative ability of Deep Blue Technology is probably beyond everyone's understanding.

At first, Xu Honglie didn't quite believe Cao Mang's words.

But then I thought that a boss as big as Cao Mang couldn't lie to him, which meant that these techniques were achievable.

Besides, the products produced by Deep Blue Technology have always been known for their leading technology. It is not a problem for Deep Blue Technology to be able to produce this kind of technology.

"Yes." Xu Honglie picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then nodded.

"If I sell an electric car to a taxi company at a cost of 30 yuan, how many years is it estimated that the taxi company will get back the cost?" Cao Mang asked after refilling tea for him.

"It depends on what kind of operation method we use. If we rent the car to the driver, based on the price of our car, we can collect 6000 yuan in rent per month, so we can recover 72000 yuan in one year."

After deducting expenses, you can still have a balance of about 60000 yuan a year. It takes at least 5 years for a car to pay back its capital.

If it is operated by hiring drivers, it only takes 3 to 4 years to pay back the cost if it works well.

The specific operation method to be used will not be known until the new car is in place and an estimate is made.

If we use the driver recruitment model, we have to build a platform ourselves or cooperate with Didi Taxi, otherwise we will not be able to obtain more customers.

Deep Blue Technology already has its own customer base, and I personally prefer to build my own platform. "Xu Honglie replied.

In fact, Xu Honglie is also a very ambitious person. The reason why he proposed to build his own platform was because he wanted to create a taxi-hailing platform. China Car Rental once worked as a taxi-hailing platform, but their taxi-hailing platform was overthrown by Didi in the end.

Over the years, major platforms have cultivated customer usage habits. It is a very good opportunity for Deep Blue Technology to intervene in the taxi-hailing platform at this time.

Since Deepblue Technology got involved in Internet products, it has already had a large number of customer groups. It only needs to transfer these customer groups to the taxi-hailing platform.

The success rate of Deep Blue Technology’s entrepreneurial ventures is definitely higher than those of previous taxi-hailing platforms.

Moreover, Deep Blue Technology has a very rich family background, even if Didi fights with Deep Blue Technology.

Once this plan succeeds, he believes that the company will not treat him badly.

To be honest, Cao Mang doesn't really want to be a taxi-hailing platform, because Cao Mang has never been exposed to this thing before, but he knows that Didi has been losing money for several years, and he doesn't know if he will lose money when he joins. , I have no idea about the taxi-hailing platform Cao Mang.

"Xu Honglie, Didi has been operating a taxi-hailing platform for several years and has been losing money for a few years. Can you guarantee that Deeplan will not lose money like Didi did when operating the platform?" Cao Mang asked seriously.
