Rebirth: Let's Talk About 1984

According to reports, this story begins at an entirely unscientific moment: Zhou Ziye, a designer who rose from creating counterfeit mobile phones, suddenly time-traveled back to the year 1984.

Chapter 435 The new company isn't making money, it's burning through cash.

After merging the entertainment companies, Hong Kong finally got its own internet.

The first test environment was sending an email to the US branch office.

Desktop computers, laptops, tablets, and even mobile phones were tested in turn.

Wireless testing takes time and varies depending on the location—city center, beach, mountain, etc.—testing must be conducted wherever there is a signal tower.

If a signal transmission problem occurs, someone must be dispatched immediately to troubleshoot it.

Anyway, the engineers in Hong Kong are all extremely busy.

The basic tests went smoothly, but the next issue was with the device itself.

Whether it's a tablet or a mobile phone, the limited storage memory exposes its drawbacks in terms of information storage.

The system takes up a portion of the memory, the software takes up another portion, and the remaining amount is pitifully small.

In addition, Xing Baohua also plays with those new gadgets, like creating chord ringtones, which also take up space in the audio content.

All software generates junk files. Xing Baohua didn't provide management software like for computers, so how are customers supposed to know how to clean up the junk files?

So the reserved space is really not enough.

The mainstream method of information transmission is email, which is supported by email software and not by browsers. This means that if emails are not deleted after being received, they will accumulate more and more likes.

An email is usually very short, only a few bytes, and even the largest ones are no more than 2/3 KB.

But most people don't want to delete them! They just keep them accumulating, and the more likes they get, the more likes they get.

The memory was full, which caused a chain reaction, resulting in severe lag and the directional keys and the confirm key becoming unresponsive.

This is what we call the "fake death" phenomenon. This kind of thing usually doesn't happen with feature phones, but Xing Baohua forced things forward and produced this thing seven or eight years ahead of schedule. Not only was it multifunctional, but it was bound to crash.

Solution.

There's nothing we can do; this batch of goods can't be modified. We can only wait for the customer to contact after-sales service and tell them to use the "delete method" to solve the lag issue.

With wireless devices gaining internet access, various problems have arisen.

Some problems can be solved, while others cannot.

If that doesn't work, temporarily disabling the network, closing ports, and not connecting to the network should be sufficient.

So, the lesson learned is to increase RAM and replace storage memory with larger memory.

Use the best batteries.

My phone gets hot and the battery drains quickly after just twenty minutes of browsing the internet. These are problems that can't be solved without replacing the hardware.

Tens of thousands of cordless phones have been sold; it's impossible to go through the trouble of replacing them for everyone.

The cost of human and material resources is very high.

The only option is to wait for a new product to be released and then trade in the old one. Furthermore, instead of returning them directly to the factory, they are sold through grey market channels to South Asia, Europe, and the Americas as secondhand phones.

This method is more convenient than returning the product to the factory, and it can even generate some profit.

Once he had internet access, Xing Baohua began testing the pre-prepared food delivery ordering system.

Since this is a beta version and is primarily for desktop users, we need to identify all the differences.

In Hong Kong, food delivery services have existed for a long time, and orders are usually placed by phone.

Restaurants that offer delivery services typically use their own employees, rather than third-party delivery personnel.

Without the widespread adoption of electronic devices, Xing Baohua would not have used third-party food delivery companies.

We should try operating the service at our own delivery stores first.

First, register a food delivery and logistics company in Hong Kong.

Huahong's wholly-owned subsidiary.

Several people were transferred from Huahong headquarters, Huahong Bank, Hainan Investment, and the software park. Xing Baohua personally took on the role of general manager to run the business.

Many outsiders see Xing Baohua personally taking charge, which shows how much he values ​​this company!

Unfortunately, Huahong is wholly owned. As soon as it reveals even a small quota, no matter how much money is invested, everyone has to follow suit without hesitation!

The secretary was also transferred over. As long as it's a coordination task between departments, everyone else belongs to different companies and may not be of one mind.

The secretary had been with Xing Baohua for many years and had a certain amount of prestige. Many people were confused and thought she was his bedmate or something.

New companies and new members need a period of adjustment.

Then recruitment began. First, several marketing managers and staff were hired; a considerable number of people would be needed for marketing duties.

It will require about twenty or thirty employees.

Once the newspaper ad was placed, wow, so many people came to apply!

Especially since there are no educational requirements, as long as you can talk well, you're good to go. Even with only twenty or thirty seats, thousands of people came on the first day.

Both Haina and Huahong have offered excellent employee benefits in recent years, which has been frequently reported in the media. Many Hong Kong people know about them, and quite a few hope to work there.

Huahong Takeaway Logistics, although I don't know what they do, as long as they recruit people, they have to be fast. They're faster than anyone else.

The marketing staff's affairs were left to the secretary. Xing Baohua, along with the technical staff and personnel from the bank, were tinkering with the payment software.

When placing an order online, a payment method is required, and the only one Xing Baohua could offer was Huahong Bank.

It's fortunate that we planned ahead, otherwise we would have had to beg and plead with the bank to cooperate.

Xing Baohua originally wanted to separate the payment function and merge it into Haina, but then he realized that doing so would be like taking it all for himself.

The key payment function is too lucrative, and Xing Baohua fears it might cause a lot of unnecessary trouble in the future.

If it were still under Huahong's control, with the backing of those powerful shareholder families, no one would dare to say anything.

Then stay at Huahong and earn less.

Xing Baohua is building a brand new company. Meanwhile, his rice company back in his hometown has also begun producing goods based on orders.
