With infinite aspirations for the future of the factory, Zhou Ziwen began the preparation journey for the R&D center in full swing.

He knew very well that this was a key step for the factory to reach new heights, and every link could not be sloppy.

Funding is the foundation for the construction of a R&D center.

Zhou Ziwen found Chen Qiaoyi as soon as possible. The two sat in the factory office with all kinds of financial statements and materials in front of them.

They examined every possible expenditure one by one, from equipment procurement, staff salaries, to site renovation and scientific research funding, no matter how big or small.

Chen Qiaoyi has provided many unique insights based on the knowledge she learned in agricultural economic management and the actual operation of the factory.

Regarding the purchasing budget for large-scale experimental equipment, Chen Qiaoyi suggested not to blindly pursue expensive imported equipment, but to select domestic products with high cost performance and in line with the factory's R&D needs. This can not only meet R&D needs, but also save a lot of money.

After hours of discussion and calculation, a detailed and reasonable budget plan was born.

This plan not only ensures an adequate supply of funds, but also accurately plans the flow of each fund, providing solid financial support for the smooth construction of the R&D center.

At the same time, Shen Zhaodi also devoted herself to communicating with universities and research institutions.

She is busy every day with emails and meetings, and actively contacts the career guidance centers of major universities and relevant leaders of scientific research institutions.

She introduced in detail the development prospects of the factory, the planning of the R&D center and the generous treatment for talents to attract the other party's attention.

During her communication with a well-known university, Shen Zhaodi learned about a doctoral student in materials science who had achieved outstanding results in the research and development of new materials.

She immediately collected detailed information about the doctoral student, including his research direction, published papers, and scientific research projects he participated in, and compiled this information into a detailed report and sent it to Zhou Ziwen.

In her exchanges with scientific research institutions, Shen Zhaodi also worked hard to explore the possibility of cooperation and strive to introduce advanced external scientific research resources to the factory.

Zhou Ziwen had an extremely strong desire for outstanding talents, so he decided to go to several key universities in person to participate in campus job fairs.

The job fair was crowded with people, and Zhou Ziwen was moving between booths, looking for talents that met the factory's needs.

He enthusiastically introduced the factory to the graduates and painted a grand blueprint for the R&D center.

During an interview with a mechanical engineering graduate, Zhou Ziwen learned in detail about his research projects and practical experience in school and found that he had unique insights in the field of automation control.

Zhou Ziwen introduced to him the factory's upcoming R&D projects, as well as the broad development space and good working environment provided for scientific researchers.

The graduate was impressed by Zhou Ziwen's sincerity and the prospects of the factory, and expressed his willingness to join the R&D team on the spot.

After several days of hard work, Zhou Ziwen successfully invited several young scientific researchers with potential in fields such as mechanical engineering, materials science and electronic technology, injecting fresh blood into the R&D center.

In addition to the busy preparations, Zhou Ziwen also took time to spend with his family.

It was a sunny weekend, the sky was as blue as a gem, and a few white clouds were floating leisurely.

Zhou Ziwen brought Xiao Yueyue and Xiao Xuanxuan to the grassy area outside the city to fly kites.

The children held the colorful kites in their hands, their faces flushed with excitement.

Xiao Yueyue was holding a butterfly-shaped kite, while Xiao Xuanxuan was holding a majestic airplane kite.

Zhou Ziwen patiently taught the children how to let out the line and how to run against the wind.

Blown by the breeze, the kite slowly rose into the sky, flying higher and higher.

Xiao Yueyue and Xiao Xuanxuan clapped their hands happily and cheered loudly: "Wow, our kite is flying!"

Looking at the children's innocent smiles, Zhou Ziwen's heart was filled with happiness and satisfaction.

While flying a kite, little Yueyue curiously asked, "Dad, why can kites fly so high?"

Zhou Ziwen smiled and explained, "Because of the help of the wind, just like when we encounter difficulties in life, with the help of family and friends, we can overcome difficulties and go further."

The children nodded, not quite understanding, with curiosity glittering in their eyes.

As the preparatory work progresses, the construction of the R&D center is gradually getting on track.

New scientific researchers arrived at their posts one after another, and under the leadership of Zhou Ziwen, they quickly plunged into the intense work.

The large amount of potential talent information collected by Shen Zhaodi provides strong support for subsequent talent reserves.

Chen Qiaoyi's carefully planned budget ensured that every penny was spent wisely and that all procurement and construction work proceeded smoothly.

In terms of the renovation of the R&D center's site, Zhou Ziwen invited professional designers to design it according to the special needs of scientific research work.

The layout of the laboratory is rationally planned, and the ventilation system and power supply have been optimized and upgraded.

Advanced experimental equipment has also arrived one after another, and scientific researchers are busy installing and debugging the equipment.

In order to help new members better integrate into the team, Zhou Ziwen organized a team-building activity.

Everyone sat together and shared their scientific research experiences and expectations for the future.

In a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, the distance between team members quickly shortened, laying a good foundation for future cooperation.

During this process, the factory's daily production was not affected in the slightest.

Zhou Chaoyang led the sales team to continue expanding the market, and orders continued to pour in.

Tang Yaoyao strictly controls the quality inspection department to ensure that every product meets high quality standards.

Chen Shiying was busy contacting university professors to seek professional guidance for the R&D center's scientific research.

As time goes by, the R&D center gradually shows strong vitality.

Scientific researchers have conducted in-depth research in their respective fields, and some preliminary research results have begun to emerge.

In terms of material research and development, the scientific research team has successfully developed a new type of alloy material, which has the characteristics of high strength and lightweight. It is expected to be used in new products in the factory and greatly improve product performance.

In the field of mechanical design, the team proposed a new design concept that can effectively improve the operating efficiency and stability of mechanical equipment.

Zhou Ziwen looked at the thriving development of the R&D center, his heart filled with pride and emotion.

He knows very well that all this is inseparable from the support and dedication of his family and friends.

In the days to come, he will continue to lead the team to work hard and innovate continuously, so that the factory can stand out in the fierce market competition and create even more brilliant results.

He believes that as long as everyone works together, the R&D center will become a powerful engine for the factory's development, propelling it to greater heights and creating more value for his family and society. (End of this chapter)
