Chapter 660: Is the big boss trying to grab a piece of territory in Africa? Fast private car, thousand-degree counterattack!
"Aren't you used to it yet?"
Chen Zhi on the side laughed and joked.
The roads in the suburbs of Hamra State are full of potholes, much like the village roads in China in the 1990s.
It's okay during the dry season, at most the road is a little dusty, but when the rainy season comes, the road completely turns into a muddy road and is impossible to walk on.
As for road construction?
Who repairs it?
Who will pay?
The Abyssinian Central Office can only control the central and northern regions, while the other areas are the sphere of influence of the Omoro and Tireg tribes respectively.
Even if the highway is built, the effort will be in vain in the end because it is not under the control of the central department, so there is no need to invest in construction at all.
"Brother Chen, I've actually gotten used to it a long time ago. It's mainly because I ate too much this morning, and the road was so bumpy. Damn it, the tea egg in my stomach is almost up in my throat!"
Qin Chengguo gritted his teeth and made up a story.
He didn't want to appear timid in front of his supervisor.
In view of his outstanding performance last time, the company not only rewarded him with a bonus of 100,000 yuan, but also provided him with a promotion opportunity.
You only need to go back to the South African headquarters for half a month of training, and you can be promoted to team leader after you come back, and your salary will increase from 26,000 yuan per month to 32,000 yuan.
After hearing this, Chen Zhi just smiled and said nothing.
In his eyes, Qin Chengguo's psychological quality is already very strong.
The company has recruited many veterans before. Although they have received professional training, some of them did not even dare to fire their guns when they encountered emergencies. In the end, they could only transfer to security guards with a monthly salary of just over 10,000 yuan.
Unlike Qin Chengguo, who appeared honest on the surface but actually shot someone in the head.
To be honest, it is normal to have psychological burdens!
If Qin Chengguo didn't react at all, Chen Zhi would start to suspect that he was a serial killer who had escaped from China.
This is also the reason why he deliberately took this path, just to help Qin Chengguo shorten the adaptation period.
"Brother Chen, why do you think the big boss is hiring so many people? Is he trying to grab a piece of territory in Abyssinia?"
Qin Chengguo lowered his voice and asked curiously.
In the past ten days or so, a new batch of security personnel has arrived at Orange Meat Industry.
Qin Chengguo only found out when chatting with someone privately that the company had hired hundreds of more people, and the total number of employees now exceeded 2,000.
Judging from his own salary level alone, not counting the costs of purchasing weapons and equipment and daily training, Fengxuan's monthly expenditure on staff salaries must be around 80 to 90 million yuan. In a year, the expenditure is nearly 1 billion yuan.
"Have you seen too many movies? You're still fighting over territory! The company is partnering with the Omoro people to develop several gold and copper mines in the second half of the year. How can we protect these industries without guns and manpower?"
Don't worry, don't dwell on these nonsense all the time. Once the gold mine opens, are you still worried that the boss will lose money? "
Chen Zhi joked with a smile.
In Africa, those who dare to do business here are either extremely brave or strong enough.
The former only has courage, and if he starts a small business, he can also make a good living.
But if you are too greedy and dare to touch businesses like energy and minerals, you will be in big trouble and may even lose your life.
The latter is different. Some people have guns and connections, so even mining and metallurgy can be easily done.
"But the company seems to have bought armed helicopters and main battle tanks." Qin Chengguo said quietly.
"Well, what's the big deal? Which multinational company that can gain a foothold in Africa doesn't have these?"
Chen Zhi gave Qin Chengguo a blank look.
The implication is that people are often surprised by things they don't see often.
Even Mexican drug lords can buy tanks and attack helicopters, let alone Senlian Capital.
You know, when it comes to making money quickly, how can those white flour sellers in North America compare to Senlian Capital?
Qin Chengguo nodded and chose to skip this topic.
He was not stupid. He had noticed it when he was training in South Africa. Although the sources of Fengxuan Security Company's weapons were mixed, including those from the Lighthouse Country, the Arctic Country, and some European countries, half of them were individual equipment independently developed by China.
perhaps
Qin Chengguo shrank his neck and didn't dare to think about it any further.
That night, the leaders of the Omoro and Tireg tribes finally shook hands and made peace after each suffered hundreds of casualties.
After all, they all knew that if the two sides continued to fight like this, the only ones who would gain the upper hand and reap the benefits would be the people of Hamra.
…
…
At dawn the next day, the sky was slightly bright.
Chen Yansen sat in the study on the third floor. As usual, he first checked the business progress and financial statements of each subsidiary, and then dealt with the emails waiting to be replied one by one.
All the work was done in less than ten minutes.
At this time, through the glass window, you can see the sky in the distance, but it is just beginning to turn a little pale.
Chen Yansen continued to read the reports from various groups in the Optical R&D Center, carefully examining the key nodes in technological advancement and the current obstacles.
With the Zhulong G1051 CNC machine tool, the processing efficiency of some precision parts can be greatly improved.
Now that the problem of manufacturing tools has been solved, all that remains is breakthroughs in theory and technology.
Therefore, Lin Nan and others are busy building a simplified version of the air-floating vibration isolation optical platform.
The purpose is to use this platform to record the key performance indicators of this reflective optical system, such as modulation transfer function, wavefront error, distortion, stray light and effective focal length, so as to verify whether the system is suitable for supporting chip production below 14nm process.
Any deviation needs to be analyzed to see if it is an adjustment error, a manufacturing error, or a design problem.
After reviewing Lin Nan's proposal, Chen Yansen made some minor adjustments and then commented: "Add a multi-band filter test set to simultaneously verify parameter stability under extreme temperature differences."
The sky outside the window gradually turned white until it was bright.
At 8:40, Lao Huang appeared outside the courtyard gate on time.
Chen Yansen got into the car, leaned back in the chair and browsed the hot news of the day.
Huang Boxiang drove the car towards the Xingyuan Technology Branch.
at the same time.
After receiving the notice, Meng Yuanzhi immediately asked Tao Jingwen to select an 86,000-square-meter industrial park in Luyang District.
Immediately afterwards, the clearance of existing factories in the park was completed as quickly as possible, and then the transformation of the park was initiated.
There is a sign hanging at the gate that reads "Senlian CNC Equipment Co., Ltd."
…
…
On July 28, Kuaidi Taxi launched the "Kuaidi Private Car" service.
Different from the previous model where drivers brought their own cars to join the franchise, Kuaidi Special Car adopted a self-operated cooperation model.
The company provides the car, license plate and business license, and the driver only needs to go online to accept orders.
In addition, Kuaidi Taxi Company will also purchase social security and insurance for drivers, and pay basic salaries and bonuses.
In short, all the drivers of Kuaidi Special Car are formal employees of Senlian Capital, which is equivalent to the "special delivery" of Kuaipao riders, while the original online car-hailing drivers have become "crowdsourced".
Chen Yansen's idea is very simple. Kuaidi Dache occupies 90% of the online car-hailing market in the country, with daily orders exceeding 26 million. The drivers' income is as high as 500 million, nearly 200 billion a year.
However, among the millions of online ride-hailing drivers across the country, only more than 600 have signed labor contracts with Kuaidi Dache, and the humanitarian contributions they make each year are only a few thousand strands.
This made Chen Yansen very dissatisfied!
Therefore, he asked Cheng Weixing to launch "Kuaidi Private Car". The first step was to convert drivers into full-time employees to provide him with a steady stream of humanitarian support.
Second, also for the purpose of brand upgrading, different pricing standards are set according to vehicle models, prices, comfort and service quality, thereby increasing profitability.
After receiving the news, Li Yanhong couldn't help but sneer, but he still decided to follow up and planned to launch the "Didi Private Car" service.
However, Didi Chuxing adopts a car-bringing franchise model.
Although Didi Chuxing has been lukewarm under Xiang Hailong's leadership, Li Yanhong has no plans to replace him for the time being.
Because after experiencing the lessons of Cheng Wei and Wang Zhongpu, he vaguely felt that perhaps it was not that the level of these two people was too poor, but that the abilities of Cheng Weixing and Pei Yi were too strong.
Take Cheng Wei for example. After being kicked out of the management of Didi Chuxing, he has done very well in the field of shared bicycles.
Although its market share is not as high as OFO bikes, its valuation has reached 6 billion yuan. No matter how you look at it, you can't say that it is incompetent, right?
Let’s look at Wang Zhongpu again. He has made Qiandu Waimai worse and worse.
In Li Yanhong's opinion, this person lacked execution and creativity, but after joining Kuaipao Canteen, it took him only half a year to open more than 1,400 self-operated stores in South China and Southwest China.
What is even more astonishing is that the average daily sales of these more than 1,400 newly opened stores reached 13,000 yuan.
In the chain restaurant industry, it is considered a leader.
"Is it my fault?"
Li Yanhong sometimes falls into self-doubt.
Every time he thought of this, his heart felt as if it were being pressed down by a water-soaked sponge, heavy and stuffy.
No one is willing to admit that their strategic vision is poor!
Especially someone as confident as Li Yanhong.
If I can't do it myself, Baidu can go public and become the number one in the search engine industry. Well, now it is the number two.
Li Yanhong sighed. Qiandu Search still had a 30% market share, but Lingxi Search, 360 Search and Sogou Search were still closing in.
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in!" Li Yanhong immediately suppressed all the negative emotions in his heart and responded.
With a "squeak" sound!
Qiandu Vice President Liang Zhixiang pushed the door open and walked in, a bright smile on his face. As he walked in, he said, "Boss, the artificial intelligence lab has conducted a final test on Xiaodu's large language model, and its level is comparable to Moss."
Hearing this, Li Yanhong felt a little relieved. This was the best news he had heard in recent months.
"Send me the link to the test environment." Li Yanhong said to Liang Zhixiang.
"Boss, it has been sent." Liang Zhixiang replied.
Li Yanhong quickly opened the dialog box, clicked to enter the test environment, and began to test the performance of Xiaodu's large language model.
But the smile on his face quickly disappeared, and a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes. This was a bit far from Moss's level.
It can be used, and it has certain intelligent information distribution and processing capabilities, but it is definitely not easy to use!
"Let's go online first, and then continue to optimize." After a while, Li Yanhong waved his hand resignedly.
It’s better to have it than not!
If Qiandu Search does not fight back, its market share will fall below 30%, which is unacceptable to Li Yanhong.
"Okay, boss." Liang Zhixiang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after hearing this.
Doesn’t he know the true level of Xiaodu’s language model?
But he had no choice. The boss was pressing him, so he had to come up with a version first to deal with it.
Two days later, on July 30, Qiandu opened the internal testing channel for Xiaodu's large language model.
