Chen Zifan opened the [Stardust Technology] in his consciousness and spent 35,000 copycat points to successfully upgrade to lv.10. Originally, he thought that this upgrade would be the same as before, but he received a prompt:
【Stardust Technology】
【……】
[Analysis of Shanzhai lv.10]
(Small success: lv.10 and above are the foundation of the electronic age. By analyzing fake lv.10 and below products, you can get the perfect technology in the product!)
[Creation generation: not unlocked]
[Basic drawing: unlocked]
(check the details)
【……】
Chen Zifan: "???"
No wonder the copycat lithium battery lv.5 and screen lv.5 technology obtained through [Analysis of Copycats] are simpler and more direct, and the level and quality of the products produced are much higher than competing products of the same level.
And it is very different from the existing patented technology on the market. It turns out that this is the so-called "perfect technology". In this way, it doesn't matter even if [Creation Generation] has not been unlocked yet.
But what is the [Basic Drawing] below?
Chen Zifan opened it with some curiosity (see details) and found that it was a basic construction drawing radiating outward from the current Stardust Technology headquarters and covering an area of 2,560 acres...
"Holy crap! You call this a basic drawing? 2,560 acres? Where could I steal such a large amount of land? This is more than 1.7 million square meters! TNND is bigger than the two Tesla Gigafactories in Shanghai!"
Chen Zifan immediately started to curse, not to mention that Stardust Technology currently only has the right to use less than 300 acres of land. Even if he wanted to build according to the drawings, the current situation did not allow it.
There are people using these places. After calming down, he continued to check the basic drawings in his consciousness, and soon he discovered something different.
"Isn't this... too perfect!?"
It is simply a perfect foundation! If you really complete the construction according to the basic drawings, no matter what projects you do on this basis in the future, you will get twice the result with half the effort, and you don’t have to worry about problems.
The things are good, but the cost is too high. Chen Zifan made a slight estimate and found that the construction cost of 2,560 acres would be at least 30 billion. This is only the construction cost, other things cost more.
"Let's see if there is anything above that can be used, and build it bit by bit. I'm not in a hurry yet..."
Chen Zifan put away the [Basic Drawings]. The most important thing now is to increase production capacity first, and then upgrade the copycat lithium battery and screen technology to maintain the existing product advantages.
Let’s talk about Stardust Network and Stardust Express. Regarding Stardust Network’s tasks, one is to build a complete Stardust official website, and the other is to develop Stardust Technology’s own system.
[Analyzing Copycats] After reaching lv.10, Chen Zifan can conduct various analyzes on the operating systems on the market. He has already prepared for this. He has collected ten operating systems alone, and the amount of data is huge.
These include Android, Kies, Palm OS, Symbian, BBOS, Windows Mobile... In addition, there are some open source data. As for Apple's system... Jobs himself has not figured it out yet.
Even if it is done, Apple's first-generation OS is still quite different, and some things are copied from Dopod. Of course, this kind of "borrowing" from each other is not uncommon.
Who has the last laugh is the key.
Chen Zifan worked on [Analyzing Copycats] for five hours straight, until five o'clock in the morning, and finally extracted the most basic code, based on Linux, and derived a new system.
“Dust OS…”
Dust represents "self" in Stardust, and is also the homophone of Chen, so Chen Zifan named the new system after [Analysis of Copycats] "Chen OS" and then stored it in a mechanical hard drive.
There were more than 300 million lines of code in ten systems, but in the end, only 3 million lines of source code were left after [Analysis of Copycat], and all those with different foundations, duplication, and low efficiency were discarded.
Finally, he got a simple and efficient new operating system like "Chen OS", which solved the most critical problem of new products. Chen Zifan finally breathed a sigh of relief and could prepare new products.
If they compete with Google's Android and Apple's IOS in the future, products equipped with "Dust OS" will have very high profit margins and low R&D costs, and Chen Zifan will not set low prices just because of low costs.
He will always pursue a "reasonable" pricing, and neither blindly low prices nor high prices are advisable.
"Dust OS" still needs to wait for all preparations for Stardust Network to be completed before it can gradually be invested in research and development. An operating system alone is not enough. It also needs a chip with powerful performance and stable power consumption.
There is no need to think about the functional machine chip on the "Hai". It is enough trouble to carry a Case system, so Chen Zifan either purchases a more powerful chip or sets up his own company to develop and design it.
Self-developed chips are definitely needed, but not now, because after several experiments, he found that the chip design diagram analyzed by lv.10's [Analysis of Copycats] was too basic and a bit insufficient.
Research and development can be carried out based on these improved chip design drawings, but it requires recruiting new talents, investing a lot of money, and subsequent tape-out testing and other aspects, which makes the process very cumbersome.
Therefore, Chen Zifan plans to first purchase a batch of chips that can support "Chen OS", and at the same time invest a certain amount of money to set up a project team specializing in chip R&D and design in the core area of the Stardust factory.
Not only for Stardust Technology, but also for his ideals, the land he loves...
8:00 am.
Chen Zifan was still in high spirits after working all night. When Zhao Wushang arrived at the company, he issued a series of instructions regarding Stardust Network, Stardust Express, Stardust Factory, and peripheral construction.
He has full authority to take over the Stardust Network, and he plans to hand over Stardust Express to Zhao Wushang. Regarding Stardust Express... its purpose is to serve Stardust products, and then to handle some personal transportation needs ~
Fast, accurate, and good service are Chen Zifan's requirements. At the same time, the unit price is also high. This is to give up part of the profit margin. Like the positioning of Stardust products, it is also to give up part of the low-price market.
The advantage of this is to maintain the brand image and prevent the market competition from being too fierce and consuming a lot of energy. Chen Zifan doesn't want to focus on this, he has other things to do.
The specific plan for Stardust Express has not yet been released, but the preliminary preparation work is similar to that of Stardust Network. In the future, it will only need to take Stardust headquarters as the core and gradually expand outward to build Stardust branches.
It can also solve some social employment problems. In this way, even if Stardust Technology suffers a major blow, Haicheng officials will not watch them go bankrupt, but will try their best to help them.
Mutual benefit, why not?
After a day of fermentation yesterday, the reputation of "Hai" has skyrocketed on the Internet. You can even see people wearing "Hai" Bluetooth headsets listening to music and watching videos on the streets of Haicheng.
Zhao Wushang also reported new news to Chen Zifan: "Dr. Chen, we have received cooperation invitations from many mobile phone dealers. They hope that we can give a price lower than the retail price..."
Yesterday I was reselling by myself, but today I am a mobile phone dealer. Chen Zifan is not a pedantic person. After thinking about it for a while, he said: "Okay, but the content of the cooperation must be changed."
The specific content is probably: Stardust Technology wholesales "sea" to these mobile phone dealers at a lower price and adds new shipping channels, but there are certain requirements, and the sales volume within the cycle must meet the standards.
Otherwise, Stardust Technology will reduce supply or even stop supplying products in the future, in order to screen out some mobile phone dealers with poor shipping capabilities.
After all, products still have to speak for themselves. In the past, Chen Jianjun would sell products to some mobile phone dealers at very low profit prices, but they were unwilling to take them. Now, they will take the initiative to deliver them to their doorsteps.
It's all for making money, understandable, but even if "Hai" is sold to dealers at a relatively low price, the profit per unit can reach more than 1,000.
With the first batch of "Hai" users, coupled with the online and offline promotions of the Stardust Marketing Department, and the "spontaneous publicity" of the first batch of users, the sales of "Hai" have shown a rapid rise.
At the same time, the location of the second Stardust directly-operated store has also been selected. It is in the commercial street of Shangye District, Haicheng. This is a prime location in Haicheng. The cost is much higher than that of the Stardust Direct-operated store in Zhongcheng District.
.
But the benefits it can bring are also higher, and matters related to the Stardust authorized store are still discussed by Wang Jinli and his small team. In addition to Huaya Building, there are other commercial plazas that are no less than Huaya.
Chen Zifan's original plan to build a super-large Stardust direct-operated store near Stardust Technology has been suspended. He plans to lay the foundation of that area according to the basic drawings before proceeding with construction.

On Stardust's official website, the "Hai" press conference video was uploaded on time at 10 a.m. Zhou Youdong, who was going to Beijing with 10 units of "Hai" in his arms, did not forget to download the video to his big brothers before departure.
"Okay! Let's go..."
——
Haibei District.
Chen Jianjun bought a dilapidated motor factory. It was more like a small workshop than a "factory". The entire motor factory only had three processing machines and could only produce a dozen motors a day.
He found a machine and started it, only to hear a "bang bang bang bang" sound coming from it. The couple fell into silence. After the silence, he took out his mobile phone and made a call:
"Hello? Xiaofan, let me tell you, didn't I build a motor processing factory a few days ago..."
