In accordance with his usual virtues, Wan Feng assigned the tasks, and after the general direction was determined, he leisurely left it alone.
To be precise, he just let this matter go. Since you have to hire people, you should use them with confidence and boldness. You can't put chains on people's hands and feet. How can you do your business if you do that?
In fact, this is an irresponsible excuse. He is just secretly enjoying the peace and quiet.
He didn’t care about this one, but he still had to re-establish the general direction for the next one.
Who made him have so many careers?
While Wan Feng was in Shenzhen, Yang Li and her classmates came back again, this time bringing with them advice from their mentor, a professor at Bohai University of Technology.
The professor suggested that Yang Li and these classmates could conduct battery research at the Nanwan Factory. If the Nanwan Factory has the strength, it could collaborate with the Department of Chemistry of Bohai University to conduct battery research at the same time.
Wan Feng was very interested in this suggestion.
In today's turbulent times, if you want to be invincible in the market, you must have your own intellectual property rights and your own products.
Those ideas that it is better to buy than to build and better to rent than to buy will definitely not work in Wanfeng.
If you want to have your own intellectual property and your own products, it is impossible without conducting scientific research.
It does feel like he is not up to the task of research and development solely relying on the technical capabilities of his own factory; he has spread his wings a bit too wide.
Among the entrepreneurs in his previous life, the ones Wan Feng admired the most were Ren Zhengfei, CEO of Warwick, and Wang Chuangfu of BYD. For no other reason than that they invested steadily in their own technological research and development instead of making money in the financial stock market.
When talking about BYT, the first thing people think of is its cars. In fact, BYT’s greatest strength lies in its materials field.
BYD's materials business generates far more profit than the cars and batteries that made it famous.
In later generations, BYT supplied BYT with shell antennas and many materials for almost all mobile phone manufacturers in the world. BYT's annual expenditure on scientific research accounted for 6% of its profits.
This is unmatched among private enterprises in China.
Wan Feng is also going to take this path, and he also wants to set aside about 5% of his company's profits for scientific research.
Since it is impossible to complete scientific research by one's own strength, borrowing others' help is a good option.
There are also many science and engineering universities in the north. They have no shortage of human resources but not much scientific research funding.
Wan Feng provides funding for their research and both parties share the research results. This should be a happy outcome for everyone.
So, with Yang Li's introduction, Wan Feng and Bohai University of Technology established a bridge.
After negotiations, Wan Feng agreed to invest 300,000 yuan in the first year for their research on batteries.
Bohai University of Technology and Yang Li's research team are conducting research on iron lithium-ion batteries and ternary lithium batteries separately.
It doesn’t matter if you have never done this and have no experience. Just study it slowly. Wan Feng feels that there is plenty of time anyway, and the money needed for the time being is not much.
Scientific research is not something that needs to be rushed. As long as you keep your feet on the ground and take one step at a time, you will eventually get results.
After establishing a partnership with the Department of Chemistry, Wan Feng also established connections with the Department of Materials at Bohai University of Technology and funded their research on materials.
Wan Feng's purpose in researching materials is to accumulate experience, and there are no specific requirements at present.
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. By accumulating little by little, one may one day usher in an explosion in material research.
This is an experimental approach. For the time being, he will cooperate with these two departments. If there are research results in the first year, he will increase funding year by year and expand cooperation with other departments.
It took Wan Feng about a week to go to Bohai and back.
In the past week or so, except for the twenty substrates used in Xu Bin's own game hall, the remaining seventy substrates have all been turned into game consoles, and sixty of them have been sold. Only the ten newly made ones have not yet been sold.
He began to think about purchasing goods.
"I can't accompany you to buy goods this time. You'll have to go on your own because I'm going to Longjiang. See if An Bolijun and the others are going."
Xu Junanbo and his team's business has started to pick up this week. Some electronic companies in the north have started selling chips and components to them. Their daily sales have also increased to a certain extent, and their income has further increased, but it is still not comparable to Xu Bin's current situation.
"If you don't dare to walk, you can take Zhang Shiqian's car back and forth. Once you get there, just call Teng Yuanyuan or Ye Qianwen and it will be easy."
"good!"
After coming out of Xu Bin’s entertainment hall, Wan Feng wandered to the garment factory.
Luan Daxie got a white kitten from somewhere and was playing with it on his desk with his head resting on his arm.
"Wu Dalang plays with night owls, and people play with birds of their own accord."
"Xiaobai! Here comes the bad guy, go and tickle him."
The little white cat ran from the table to Wan Feng aggressively, rubbed its head on Wan Feng's hand, and meowed in a baby voice.
Luan Feng was furious: "Xiao Bai! I told you to tickle him, not to flatter him. You useless thing, I'll throw you away if you don't obey me."
The little kitten didn't listen to her tricks at all, and actually ran to the back of Wan Feng's left hand and lay down.
Wan Feng laughed proudly.
"Let's have dinner tonight?" Wan Feng asked while gently stroking the kitten with his right hand.
"Ah! Are you leaving?"
"I'm going to leave tomorrow. This has delayed me for a month."
"When will you come back?"
"About the end of July."
"Can I go to Longjiang with you?"
Wan Feng was puzzled: "What are you going to do?"
"I've never been out of Bohai Sea in my life. You're always wandering around, but I've never been anywhere."
"You can't leave, right? What will happen to the factory if you leave?"
"Leave it to Zhang Xuan and Jiang Min! If you can hand over the factory to others and walk away, why can't I?"
Oh my god! It's okay to give it to Jiang Min, but if I give it to Zhang Xuan, he will be furious if you follow me out for a stroll.
However, Luan Feng's requirements were not high. It was indeed difficult for her to stay in this place all her life.
She is a person who likes to be in a lively environment. She must feel very depressed after guarding the factory for so many years without ever being anywhere.
I should take her out for a walk, but what should I do if I take her out?
"I won't take you this time. How about I take you for a stroll in Shenzhen when we get back in July?"
Luan Feng jumped up with a roar and cheered, which scared the little white cat lying on the back of Wan Feng's hand.
The white cat looked back and realized that it was its owner who was going crazy. It closed its eyes and snored again as if it was nothing strange.
