Chapter 17 Why not do the big ones?
Author: Xing···Chen
“Yeah…”
“…”
"The factory is fine, it's just a shortcoming...what? Do you want to come and have a look? Don't...it's fine, come later? We're waiting for you..."
Chen Jianjun actually didn't want Chen Zifan to come, just wanted him to get some money. As a result, Wu Xiaohong's eyes were like killing people. As a last resort, he had to change his words and determine the location.
After hanging up the phone, Wu Xiaohong had an attack:
"Come on, please tell me, this is the motor factory I built? Just this broken place, you spent nearly half of this broken machine?"
Chen Jianjun, who knew that he was in the wrong, was not easy to refute. As the saying goes, he often walked by the river, so there were no ones who didn’t wear shoes. Motorcycles and electric vehicles looked very similar, but their internal structures were completely different.
Chen Jianjun didn't know enough about batteries and motors. The most important thing is that there are too few serious motor factories in China now, and he can only find such broken factories if he wants to find them.
"Okay, wait for Xiaofan to come..."
"well…"
——
Stardust Technology.
After Chen Zifan assigned some work tasks to Zhao Wushang, he drove his domestic Dandan car from Zhongcheng District to Haibei District. After taking a few wrong paths, he finally found his parents.
“I miss the days when there is navigation…”
I am used to using map navigation in the smart phone era. Now I don’t know where I am afraid to open the place when I go out. After a little understanding of the situation, Chen Zifan understood what was going on.
"Oh~ Dad, you want to make an electric car, and then set up a motor factory... But then again, why don't you just enter the accessories and assemble the finished product?"
When Chen Jianjun mentioned this, he was very depressed: "I think I can't get in the accessories, and there is no one in Haicheng who specializes in selling motors."
If you don’t sell it to him, the cost of electric vehicles these days is not low, because the cost of batteries and motors is high, and the serious batteries and motors are controlled by some companies with high carbon emissions.
Most of the purpose is for welfare. Huaxia has not yet implemented the carbon credit standard, and few companies are interested in products such as electric vehicles and new energy vehicles, let alone mass production and launch.
The current results of a team that Chen Zifan is familiar with for researching power batteries are very limited. Their main focus is lithium iron phosphate batteries, which is also a product that changes BYD's fate.
The lithium batteries currently produced by Stardust Technology are closer to those of later ternary lithium batteries in terms of raw materials and energy density, and are different, such as the dependence on cobalt is relatively low, but it cannot be cobalt-free.
The reason is that the lv.10 counterfeit lithium battery level is too low, and it cannot meet the level of the later new ternary lithium battery, blade battery, and cobalt-free battery, and is still far from solid-state batteries.
Chen Zifan thought carefully and observed the surrounding environment at the same time. He found that there were many factories in this area. The motor factory that Chen Jianjun collected was just one of them. Then he spoke:
"I will solve the problem of motor and battery, but I need to understand this factory. If the price is appropriate, it is best to book a piece. I will help you register a company and you can do it.
I will get you some electric car design drawings in a few days, and you can do the rest, but Dad, we just run a factory, what's the point of assembling electric cars? Why not do the big ones?"
Chen Jianjun: "???"
Wait, he was a little unresponsive, he didn't have to worry about the motor and battery. He also took some electric car design drawings? How many are some? What is the big one? What is the big one? How big can it be?
"Ahem, Xiaofan, it's not that I don't believe you. We can just start a small factory and make some money. The others are a little unrestrained..." Before Chen Jianjun finished speaking, Chen Zifan interrupted him:
"Don't worry, you will be responsible for selling electric cars and other things at that time. It's very easy. You don't have to worry too much about the rest. I think we can do something else besides electric cars.
For example, an electric car? An electric car with a small and exquisite appearance, affordable price, suitable for urban household transportation? It is the same as the Dandan car I drove, but the positioning is different. Do you understand?"
Chen Zifan thought of a model that became popular all over the country in his mind: Wuling Hongguang MINIEV, which initially started at only 28,800 to 38,800 yuan, which is extremely lethal for people with relatively low budgets.
However, with the current Stardust Technology alone, it is very difficult to create a product that is comparable to or even surpasses Wuling MINI. Moreover, they do not have a power battery production line and no other accessories yet.
Chen Jianjun and Wu Xiaohong were stunned when they heard this. What? Electric cars? What is that?
“Can cars still be electric?”
"Are you sure this is not a toy? What if you run out of power halfway through? There is no place to charge!"
"Yes, yes, we'd better sell electric cars, and don't consider cars or something..."
Chen Zifan: “…”
As expected, it was still too urgent. The foundation had not been laid yet, and the risk of entering the automobile market was too high. Moreover, even if the foundation was laid in the future, it would not be suitable to leave it to his parents. He had to lead the team himself.
"It's okay, you guys go back and rest first, just wait for my news, let me tell you."
"Hey~Wait!"
Seeing that Chen Zifan was about to withdraw, Chen Jianjun called him again and said embarrassedly: "Well, can the company be called Xinghua?"
Chen Zifan: "???"
"It's the company you helped me set up. Can it be called Xinghua? Xing is Xingchen's Star, and Hua is Hua's Hua. I have this one requirement."
“…”
Maybe Chen Zifan has no objection to Xinghua or Xinghua. Whether it is Xinghua or Xinghua, how could he not agree?
Also, when did his parents have any requirements to use this tone?
"No problem. One month, the factory, the company, I will handle it for you in one month. It's just right for you to rest this month. If you have no money, I'll have to go with me."
"Okay, you're busy first!"
"Okay!"
Chen Zifan drove his Dandan car back to Stardust Technology again, why didn't he send his parents? Chen Jianjun drove a travel version of Santana, which was much better than his Dandan car. As for why he didn't drive...
One is that I am too lazy to change the car, and the other is that I am too tall and driving Santana head will affect my vision.
He didn't have the idea of changing to a new car. He usually drove less unless he built his own car one day. Most of the senior executives of Stardust Technology drive Passats, which seems to have always been a magic car~
The most painful thing at this time should be Zhao Wushang. He had just solved some of the work, but Chen Zifan arranged a new job. The most important thing is that this is what Mr. Chen wants to do, and he cannot refuse.
"Dr. Chen, let me share a few people. I can't stand it anymore. I have too much work..."
Chen Zifan looked at Zhao Wushen with a bitter face and asked in confusion: "Aren't you CEO? Why don't you promote a few of them by yourself?"
Zhao Wushang: "???"
MD! I have been doing it myself for a long time, and I forgot that I am also a leader! There are not many Stardust Technology people, but it is still okay to promote a few to help him. The most important thing is that he didn't realize it before!
Chen Zifan was also a little confused. He always thought that every time he handed over to Zhao Wushang, Zhao Wushang would send some of the work to employees. Who would have thought that the work of the CEO of Star Chen was done by himself?
At the same time, he also realized that Stardust Technology needed to expand its recruitment. The specific number and position of recruitment were required to determine it, and then prepare the Stardust Network/Express plan.
Several tasks were carried out simultaneously. After three busy days, Chen Zifan finally handed over the Stardust Network/Express plan to Zhao Wushang. At the same time, he also found that Zhao Wushang had two more followers around him.
Both are female assistants, with ages estimated to be 28 to 32, and they are well maintained, with exquisite makeup, full body with mature charm, and a hint of competence in their words and deeds...
"Okay, Old Zhao!!!"
Chen Zifan was a little confused, and even his eyes changed when he looked at Zhao Wushen. The latter also noticed his eyes and quickly explained: "Dr. Chen, you misunderstood. They are my assistants."
"...I know! What did I misunderstand? OK, this is the plan for Stardust Network, Stardust Express. It is basically no problem to do it according to this structure. Stardust Express will be handed over to you.
We will notify the Human Resources Department again that we need to expand our enrollment, 50 people in Stardust Express, 100 people in Stardust Network, 300 people in Stardust Headquarters and Factory, and the headquarters and Stardust Network must be as required by me!”
"I see!"
It means Stardust Express. The conditions for recruiting employees in the factory can be introduced by existing employees, or no more than half of them. As for Stardust Network, the employees recruited by the headquarters must be strict.
Zhao Wushang is still very decent and should not do anything out of order. Moreover, the female assistant may not have poor work ability. He also has a sense of responsibility in the personnel department and knows what should not be done.
The recruitment requirements for Stardust Network are the strictest, and Chen Zifan will personally check them. At the same time, the salary and benefits are also the highest, and you need to pass a very difficult written test and a very strict interview.
Various confidentiality agreements are also required to sign, but as long as the agreement is not violated, it will have no impact on the employees themselves. In addition to regular recruitment, Chen Zifan also tried something different.
He also sent invitation letters to the main engineers of the technical departments of nine companies, including Bodang, Meizu, Huawei, Lenovo, Newman, etc., through the Human Resources Department, and directly prying out their corners.
Not only did they offer higher salaries, they also expressed their willingness to help them pay liquidated damages... Some people disdained this, some people pretended not to see it, some were moved, but they were worried that Stardust Technology had no future...
Only Boss Huang of Meizu was so angry that he cursed directly: "You Star Dust Technology! You poached people and poached me! It's too much! Besides, you are so far away from Haicheng, what are the engineers who dig our Zhucheng?"
It’s nothing to just poach people. The key is that an engineer from the technical department has already proposed to resign with him! He is still the two main engineers under him, who can tolerate this! He wishes to kill directly to Haicheng at this time!
If Chen Zifan knew that he had offended Boss Huang at this time, he would have to complain. He just heard that Meizu engineers were good at abilities and were easy to dig, so he sent an invitation letter to try...
Who would have thought that it would be so easy to succeed?
Apart from Meizu, the best thing to do is waveguide engineers. There is no way, waveguides are very aggressive in advertising, but the R&D investment is only one-fifth, and some engineers have long been reluctant to stay.
There is little money and heavy task...
Stardust Technology's salary is high, and Lenovo and Huawei engineers look down on it, but the engineers of Waveguide said they need it very much, so they immediately contacted Stardust Technology's Personnel Department and were preparing to change jobs.
In contrast, Boss Xu of Waveguide has become much calmer. The main engineer of the technology department resigned, and the senior management of Waveguide did not respond much, because technology research and development has never been paid attention to them.
After symbolically retaining it, three main waveguide engineers and two main Meizu engineers set out on the way to Haicheng, and the Stardust Technology Personnel Department also reported the news to Chen Zifan.
