“Look, this is our company.”
After entering the building, Father Lou pointed around and said.
At this time, everyone in the building was working hard and did not notice the arrival of the two.
Some people walked in a hurry, while others were thinking hard, writing something on paper from time to time.
Li Qinghe was so happy to see this busy scene. There were not only Chinese people here, but also many foreigners.
"By the way, uncle, how is the research on color picture tubes going?"
"I'll let the technical department tell you about this."
Father Lou is just a businessman. Although he has read a lot of books, they are all in liberal arts. It is really difficult for him to master these technologies.
This is what Li Qinghe is most concerned about. Foreign countries are already researching it, and it will be put on the market in 1973. He wants to develop it earlier than foreign countries so that he can produce color TVs in advance to seize the market. Although he cannot bring down the price of color TVs in a short period of time, at least it is much cheaper than imported ones, and domestic people will be able to buy TVs earlier.
The most important thing is to create foreign exchange. What the country lacks most now is foreign exchange. Every time we want to get some advanced equipment, we have to scrimp and puff. The key is that people are not willing to sell it, so we can only buy things that are already outdated from others.
How tragic it is.
"Boss Lou, you're here just in time. We've run into some technical difficulties and need some equipment. Here's the equipment sampling. Can you get it as soon as possible?"
At this time, an engineer walked over quickly with a form in his hand.
Father Lou frowned immediately, took the form and looked at it, his expression becoming uglier the more he looked at it.
"Uncle, what's wrong?" Li Qinghe asked puzzledly.
Father Lou handed over the list and said bitterly, "Look, it's all about the equipment. Alas, we can't produce these equipment in Gangcheng, so we can only import them. But the price is high, and the key is that they are not willing to sell them to us."
"Mr. Lou, this won't do. Without these equipment, all our initial investment will go to waste." The engineer also became anxious.
The research on color cathode ray tubes was not only the result of a lot of money and energy invested by Lou's father, but also the hard work of engineers. They went from being penniless at the beginning to having some results now, which consumed countless efforts. The only thing they lacked was advanced equipment to overcome the difficulties.
"It's okay, I'll find a way." Li Qinghe comforted her and began to look at the list carefully.
He would take note of these devices and find a way to get them.
Everything is difficult at the beginning. As long as you get through the initial process of feeling your way across the river, everything will go much more smoothly. Especially for something that no one has developed yet, it is even more difficult. If they tell others about it, many people will probably laugh at them.
"This is..." The engineer then noticed Li Qinghe. He originally thought that he was a junior of Lou's father who came to take a look.
Father Lou introduced: "This is Li Qinghe, the company's major shareholder, Qinghe, and this is the chief engineer of the color tube project, Zhao Santai, Engineer Zhao."
"Major shareholder?"
Zhao Santai was stunned. It was the first time he heard that the company had other shareholders.
"Yes." Father Lou nodded. "This company was funded by Qinghe at the beginning, and I just helped with the management."
Father Lou has no son, only a daughter, Lou Xiao'e. In the future, everything in the Lou family will be passed on to her. Now that Li Qinghe and Lou Xiao'e have a child, everything will be theirs after a hundred years.
"Uncle, please stop praising me." Li Qinghe smiled and shook his head, looking at Zhao Santai, "I will find a way to get these things for you as soon as possible. By the way, do you have time now? I want to see the research progress."
"Okay, okay, Mr. Li, come with me." Hearing Li Qinghe's words, he knew he was confident that he could get the equipment. Zhao Santai's eyes lit up and he quickly led the way.
In his opinion, since Li Qinghe was so young and could invest in a company, he must have very strong connections. These were not what he cared about. What he cared about was the possibility that Li Qinghe could get the equipment.
As long as the equipment arrives, the research progress can be greatly advanced. Moreover, he admires Li Qinghe's vision for being willing to invest money in technical research.
Afterwards, Zhao Santai took Li Qinghe and Lou's father to visit their laboratory and gave a detailed introduction to the progress and results. Li Qinghe listened attentively and also put forward some opinions of his own.
Although he was a boxer in his previous life, he had experienced an explosion of information. He did not understand the specific research steps, but he still knew some key points. After all, there were various papers and popular science videos and posts on the Internet.
Although I cannot help Zhao Santai and others complete their specific research, I can provide them with ideas and help them avoid many detours.
At first, Zhao Santai didn't care too much, but soon he found that what Li Qinghe said was very inspiring to him, and even some of the difficulties he encountered were solved, which also provided him with a lot of ideas for his subsequent research.
After the visit, Zhao Santai took Li Qinghe's hand and shook it vigorously, "Mr. Li, you really helped a lot. I hope to come here more often in the future. I admire your knowledge very much!"
Li Qinghe pulled his hand away with all his strength and laughed dryly, "That's not necessary. I've only dabbled in these things. It's too much of a compliment for me to say I can guide you."
That's right. He just talked about the difficulties encountered in the development of color tubes that he saw in his previous life, and mentioned how others solved them. He was just pointing fingers at other people's achievements. If he really did research on it, he would probably scratch his head.
“Don’t worry, just keep researching. I will do my best to protect you. The future of the company, my future, and your future all depend on you.
"Okay, I've learned almost everything now, so I'll go back first. I'll come back when I have time."
Zhao Santai felt a little regretful, but didn't say anything. He was just an employee. Could he really let the big boss come to do research and development?
After leaving the laboratory, Father Lou couldn't help but ask, "Qinghe, do you really have a solution?"
"I'm not 100% sure, I can only give it a try."
This matter must be done as soon as possible. He cannot let the engineers study it slowly, otherwise by the time they finish their research, color TVs will have been launched on the market abroad.
If you fall behind by one step, you will fall behind step by step. If you fall behind, you will be beaten and have to pay the money obediently.
As long as one high-end project takes the lead, it will take the lead step by step, and it will be able to collect funds and invest in subsequent advanced research and development, forming a virtuous circle.
"Uncle, I'll think of a solution. You don't have to wait for me for dinner tonight." Li Qinghe waved his hand and hailed a taxi.
"This kid is not simple. It seems that he has considerable influence in Hong Kong City."
Father Lou didn't believe that if Li Qinghe didn't have some connections, could he take over the equipment business?
Li Qinghe gave an address and then sat down with his eyes closed to rest.
It was not difficult for him to transport the equipment into the port city. He could hide it in space and no one could find it.
But it was very troublesome for him to go abroad. He didn't know how long it would take to swim there. It was a good opportunity for him to go to Liu Shanming, who was engaged in international trade, and maybe he could provide some help.
Soon, the car stopped in front of a building.
After entering, I handed over a business card and was taken to an office.
"Haha, Brother Li is here, come and sit down, come and sit down."
