From Arms Dealer To King of War

  Chapter 233 Here Comes, Brother

He walked into the cage and picked up a lion cub whose spots hadn't faded, put it in his arms and asked Dorian to take a photo for him, and then happily took a video with Danbao, sending To his younger brother Qiao Liang who hadn't been in touch for several months.

  Evening in Central Africa happens to be noon in Huaguo.

   Not long after Qiao Jia's message was sent, Qiao Liang made a video call.

   After connecting, Qiaojia saw not only his younger brother, but also several curious men and women crowded around him.

  Seeing the little lion crawling all over the ground, and the adorable Danbao, a girl with a little fat baby face grabbed Qiao Liang's arm and let out a scream...

   "Ah, so cute, Qiao Liang, I'm going, I'm going, take me, you must take me, I'll buy the air ticket and book the hotel myself, you take me..."

   Seeing his younger brother grinning and nodding in response to the chubby girl's request amidst the booing of the people around him, Qiao Jia slammed his lips and said, "Who is this?"

  When Qiao Liang heard this, he quickly grabbed the enthusiastic chubby girl, and said with a dry smile, "Brother, this is my classmate, her name is Tong Tong, and her hometown is the capital of our province, hehe..."

  Joga saw the expression on his younger brother's face, and he knew that this kid was in love.

  Looking at Qiao Liang's clothes, Qiao Jia knew that his younger brother's frugality hadn't changed.

  In the early years, in order to take care of his parents in the hospital, Qiao Liang lived on almost every penny. His stinginess made Qiao Jia, an older brother, even look down on it.

Qiaojia has been sending money to him since he became rich, not much. The purpose of remitting 5,000 US dollars every month is to let him return to normal college life. girlfriend.

   Qiaojia never imagined that his younger brother's illness didn't seem to be cured, but he actually found a girlfriend.

   Although the girl named Tong Tong can only be described as average in appearance, she looks very extroverted and enthusiastic. She is a little chubby, but she looks good when she smiles.

Qiao Jia greeted Tong Tong with a smile, and said: "Come if you want, and I will buy you air tickets when you decide. I am in Central Africa now and I am planning to invest in a resort. There are many animals here, just suitable for enthusiastic girls. Come and show your love."

   As Qiao Jia glanced at the surrounding environment, he said to Qiao Liang, "Why aren't you at school? Today isn't a holiday either."

After hearing this, Qiao Liang scratched his flat head, and said with a smile: "Brother, didn't you ask me about solar drones? It just so happens that one of my seniors and his mentor are engaged in the development of this area, so I I begged my teacher to introduce me to their project team, I want to learn a bit, and I will also help you inquire about it."

While talking, Qiao Liang introduced several young people around him to Qiao Jia, and then specially dragged a man who looked to be in his thirties with glasses, and said, "Brother, this is my brother Yang Guanghui, he is Solar Energy The actual person in charge of the UAV project.

Brother Yang’s technology is very powerful. I learned a lot from him. He has always wanted to use solar drones for communication relay projects. It is said that this project has great prospects in many third world countries. If it develops well, it may be A low-profile version of the Starlink system. "

   Qiao Jia was stunned for a moment, and then sighed that these young people really dare to think!

  The developed world won't let your big solar-powered drone fly around, but third world countries don't have that problem.

   But this thing is unstable, and it can't run for a long time like a satellite. How many drones are needed to build an effective communication network and keep it running for a long time.

  With this money, why not find someone to build a base station?

  These young people dared to think and do it, but they obviously found the wrong target. They should be targeting the military and police departments.

   Based on the long-term endurance of solar-powered drones and the advantages of simple maintenance, as long as they are equipped with advanced visual systems, there is no problem in recommending them to the border patrols of any country.

Qiao Liang and the others are all excellent college students, so it is impossible for them not to understand this truth, so he said with a smile: "Third world countries can't maintain this kind of thing, and other communication companies can't wait to subsidize money to enter and grab the market. You can sell this to others." who?

   Why don't you contact the border guards, maybe you can get some sponsorship or something. As long as this thing can really fly, even if it can only fly for 10 hours, it is more affordable than those sophisticated drones. "

   Qiao Liang was taken aback by Qiao Jia's words, and then Yang Guanghui, who was beside him, adjusted his glasses and said a little depressed, "They already have..."

   Speaking of this, Yang Guanghui patted Qiao Liang on the shoulder, then looked at Qiao Jia on the phone, and said: "The main purpose of our project is not to design drones, but to design a modern city sharing system.

  For a large city with a population of 3 million, only three drones are needed to achieve signal tracking and coverage.

  This intelligent sharing system can integrate all idle items in the city, and then make them generate benefits...

  ...

  ..."

   Qiaojia was confused, because Yang Guanghui said many words that sounded powerful. He knew every word, but he couldn't understand them together.

  Qiaojia doesn’t know much about Internet technology, but his business has been going smoothly recently, so he instinctively realized that this Yang Guanghui was borrowing the school’s funding for drones to build his so-called intelligent sharing system.

   This has little to do with Choja, since he's only interested in solar-powered drones.

  As Qiaojia's territory grows larger, his demand for communication and reconnaissance will become higher and higher, otherwise the combat efficiency of his special operations team will definitely decrease.

  The most important thing is to always send toucans out to scout, which has begun to make 'Cobra' a little tired.

  Looking at the young people on the other side of the phone nodding frequently, some were noncommittal, but my younger brother was very calm.

   At this time, Qiao Jia knew that Qiao Liang had his own ideas in his heart.

  He knows his younger brother too well. The experience of the two brothers has caused them to mature earlier than ordinary people. Because they care about money, they have their own views on money.

   Qiao Ge is keen on making money, and at the same time he is not stingy about spending it, while Qiao Liang is keen on saving money, just thinking about how to spend it wisely.

   In terms of being clear-headed, stingy with money, and practical in character, Qiao Liang is far above Qiao Jia.

  Yang Guanghui's set of things couldn't impress Qiao Liang at all. In fact, all the things aimed at attracting investment and money could not impress Qiao Liang.

  This kid’s idea is to mix in this project team, find out the technology of solar drones, and try to learn more things and help Qiaojia.

   And now Yang Guanghui is so enthusiastic because he saw that Qiaojia seems to be quite rich, and wanted to see if he could get some investment.

   This is a typical example of borrowing chickens and laying eggs, using the school's resources to cover a project's skin to do your own project.

  As long as he finds interested investors, Yang Guanghui can pull his own smart sharing platform out of the school's drone project and work independently.

   Waiting until Yang Guanghui finished talking about his thoughts, Qiaojia said with a smile: "It's a very advanced idea, I don't understand it very well, but I think it's very powerful."

  Speaking, Qiaojia stood up and walked out of the lion cage, turned the camera of the mobile phone around, and said with a smile: "Have you seen the situation here?

  I bought an animal rescue center, and the rescue center will continue to operate in the future. I really need drones and a supporting communication system here. After all, this national park is really too big.

   Are you short of funds for this drone project?

  If you want, you can come to me to have a look. After a field visit, as long as it is confirmed that it is useful to me, I can fund you to complete the research on solar-powered drones.

Afika does not use shareware, but you are all computer students. The UAV control system and detection system need a set of professional software and hardware. If you are interested, you should work on it, I am sure I won't let you work in vain. "

   Qiaojia's words were cryptic, but the meaning was clearly expressed.

   That is, he is not interested in Yang Guanghui's approach, but he is very interested in solar-powered drones and control systems, and can subsidize them to improve software and hardware.

   This is about business. I will fund your research and then purchase your results. Although I didn’t say how much it will cost, it is already very attractive to a group of college students.

  Because the big brother didn’t say he would take the project away, he only wanted the results.

The commercialization prospects of this thing are not very good, because solar-powered drones have limitations, and they must not be able to compete with the giants with the background of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in terms of technology and channels, but even if there are one or two civilian orders a year, It is also enough for these young people to eat and drink.

   And Qiaojia thought very simple, he just wanted to see if his younger brother was interested. If he was interested and could pull up a team by himself, then Qiaojia would definitely not hesitate to invest money in it.

  DJI was able to start from a small workshop and become a leader in drones. Qiao Liang did not catch up with the good times, but he can support the company as long as he has a customer like his brother.

  As long as the product is proven to be qualified, Qiao Liang can’t sell it by himself, so why can’t Qiao Jia sell it?

  Search and rescue, coast patrol, border patrol, weather detection, environmental monitoring...

   This thing has a wide range of uses!

And its core competitiveness is not simply in the solar drone itself, but the set of control software, which is where you need to spend your time, because there are many uncertainties in the sky, and there is no solar drone that can truly Achieve 'no landing'.

   There are many problems that need to be solved, and the main part lies in the software.

  DJI makes drones foolish, which is the most important reason for their success.

  Solar drones cannot do this for the time being, because they need to carry a large number of solar panels, so their aerodynamic structure and power are limited.

  This requires parallel development of software and hardware, so that it can automatically adjust itself when it encounters problems. Otherwise, this kind of 'disposable drone' that may crash at any time is difficult to attract customers.

   Qiao Jia was giving Qiao Liang exam questions in a disguised form, wanting to enrich his college life, but he didn't expect this kid to be much smarter than he thought...

   "Brother, then I will go to your place to have a look in a few days, and I will contact you when I finish the visa."

   After Qiao Liang finished speaking, he hung up the video, and when Qiao Jia was puzzled, Qiao Liang sent him a photo, and asked Qiao Jia to pat his head, feeling that the brains of young people are really good...
