Chapter 214 Throwing Money, Throwing Money, Still Throwing Money!

"Can the design of X1 be realized?"

Zhang Shuo looked at Gu Mingzhang, Song Yun, and Xue Tao with burning eyes.

No matter how amazing his design plan is, if the technical parameters and design intent in the plan cannot be realized and turned into a real high-quality finished product, it will be nothing but a spectacle.

With such a high-standard design, the difficulty of R&D and manufacturing can be imagined.

"To be honest, it's hard!"

As the technical director of Maili Technology, Song Yun is undoubtedly the one who has the most say, "But I am willing to accept this challenge. Once successful, Maili Technology will surely shine in the world, and its debut will be the pinnacle!"

In the bone.

Song Yun has the character of a technical man who refuses to admit defeat.

"It must be successful!"

Zhang Shuo admired Song Yun's character very much, "Tell me, what kind of support do you need from the group?"

"Of course, the more support the better, but in the final analysis there is only one word - money!"

Song Yun was really blunt.

"First of all, in terms of craftsmanship, to achieve the appearance of aluminum alloy material + glass screen, precision molds and the cooperation of corresponding glass manufacturers are required, and even technical research is required.

"In order to speed up this process, the best solution is to directly participate in Maili Technology to help relevant supporting enterprises complete technological breakthroughs."

"no problem!"

Zhang Shuo still believes in the level of domestic supporting industries, "This is what the Guancheng Industrial Zone is for. If it's really not good, you can also conduct nationwide inspections, and even cooperate with overseas manufacturers.

"And the group has registered and established the Particle Fund, which is used to make strategic investments in the upstream and downstream industrial chains of mobile phones. The initial capital is [-] million, and it will increase to one billion or even more in the future."

"In addition to the process, the biggest remaining problem is related technical research, including chip design, components, circuit boards, cameras, batteries, players, operating systems, software and hardware integration, image processing, and imaging systems. All need to set up a dedicated R&D team. If you want to achieve a breakthrough within a year, it is conservatively estimated that the number of R&D personnel should not be less than 3000 people." Song Yun is also a lion.

no way.

The design of X1 is really amazing, and the technical parameters are set so high.

However, Maili Technology is a newly established start-up company. If it wants to achieve breakthroughs in various fields within a year, it can only rely on crowd tactics.

Some technological breakthroughs even require the formation of two or three independent development teams at the same time.

to experiment with different technical paths.

The X1 design plan given by Zhang Shuo is very general and does not involve specific technical details.

He doesn't understand this either.

"3000 people..."

Zhang Shuo is not very surprised. In his impression, the R&D personnel of OV mobile phone exceeded 2018 in 2019. By [-], the number of R&D personnel will exceed [-].

Every year, tens of billions of dollars are invested in research and development alone.

This is still a domestic manufacturer, not to mention big manufacturers such as Apple and Samsung. The annual R&D expenditure is tens of billions, or even hundreds of billions.

"How many R&D personnel can we poach from Nokia?" Zhang Shuo didn't rush to answer Song Yun's question, but turned to look at Gu Mingzhang.

"Four more 500 people should be no problem." Gu Mingzhang gave a number.

That means.

The bulk of R&D personnel has to be solved domestically.

Then you can only poach people.

Huawei, Meizu, OV, and even some well-known electronics factories, including some research institutions and enterprises related to mobile phone research, will all be included in the scope of the Germination Group's poaching.

"Let Wu Sheyuan handle the rest, and they must be completed without compromise." Zhang Shuo instructed Jiang Yue.

"Ok."

Jiang Yue couldn't help but sweat for Wu Sheyuan, this is a super project.

"Simply poaching people is definitely not enough."

Song Yun continued to raise the request, "It would be best to be able to develop school-enterprise cooperation with major domestic university clusters, and jointly set up various laboratories and even research centers.

"If conditions permit, it is best to go to Japan, Korea, Beautiful Country and other countries to set up overseas laboratories to speed up the research and development of wheat grain technology to the greatest extent."

"can!"

Zhang Shuo didn't hesitate, "The group maintains good cooperation with major universities in China. It's up to you to decide which universities to cooperate with and how to cooperate. President Jiang will cooperate with the group."

at this time.

It reflects the benefits of investing in the field of education before the germination.

"By the way, cooperation with major universities can also be included in the consideration of the Hundred Talents Plan." Zhang Shuo added.

"understand!"

Jiang Yue is too clear about what Maili Technology means to Germination Group.

Once successful.

That is undoubtedly equivalent to recreating a new sprout.

"Then, what about R&D expenses?"

Song Yun continued to be "unyielding and unrelenting", completely ignorant of what satisfaction is.

Gu Mingzhang was a little ashamed.

"You don't have to worry about funding."

Zhang Shuo likes Song Yun's directness, "Next week at the earliest, the group will allocate [-] million funds as the start-up capital of Maili Technology. The subsequent allocation will not be less than [-] million per month."

Thus.

Sprout Group alone will allocate 42 billion to Maili Technology in one year, which does not include the previous tens of billions spent on purchasing patent licenses.

Compared with Maili Technology, Xiaomi is definitely cost-effective.

no way.

Who is Zhang Shuo who has a big heart and aimed at the high-end mobile phone market from the very beginning?A huge investment in the early stage is necessary. He is not afraid of spending money, but he is afraid that the money will not be spent.

Or money spent, but no results.

If it wasn't for Gu Mingzhang's team to join, he would not have the confidence to start the X1 project.

"Three hundred million, barely enough."

Song Yun's words were really annoying. Jiang Yue was so depressed that she couldn't help but rolled her eyes, "What do you mean barely enough? That's 30 million, not [-] million."

The investment of 42 billion a year is enough for Mengya Real Estate to build several skyscrapers.

"I'm talking about conservative investment. If there is a need, or the research and development funds are tight, don't be polite to me, just come to the group to find me." Zhang Shuo dotes on Song Yun very much.

"Okay!"

Song Yun is completely convinced now, where can he find such a good boss?
At this point in the meeting, the big framework has been finalized. The high efficiency is naturally due to the X1 design plan proposed by Zhang Shuo, which basically answered all the previous questions.

But Zhang Shuo was still checking for Song Yun's deficiencies, and turned to look at Jiang Yue: "In the next few months, the number of employees of Maili Technology will expand rapidly, and the 33rd floor alone is definitely not enough. Find a way to rent a few more floors in the surrounding buildings Bar."

"This is easy to solve."

With a smile on Jiang Yue's face, "I just wanted to report to you. In the past month, several long-term tenants of the Germination Building have proposed to cancel the lease in advance. If everything goes well, it can completely satisfy the needs of Maili Technology. Subsequent office needs."

There are still six full floors in the Germination Building, which are occupied by tenants.

If they can all be vacated in advance, it will be enough. Although Maili Technology said that it will recruit 3000 people for R&D personnel alone, they are not all crowded together.

A large part of R&D personnel are scattered in laboratories and R&D centers in various places.

"Why did they cancel the lease early? Is it because they are dissatisfied with our property services?" Zhang Shuo asked with concern.

"That's not it."

Jiang Yue looked strange, "According to my private knowledge, it is estimated that our benefits are inferior to ours. I am worried that if I stay here, the employees will come to us."

"Is that so..."

Zhang Shuo was also very surprised.

This is called blessing.

If he hadn't been kind to the employees before and improved the benefits, how could there be such a surprise today?
It would be a great thing to be able to vacate these rented houses in advance and gather all the subsidiaries of Germination Group to work in the same building.

But also see.

Next year at the latest, the designation of Germinal Building will not be enough.

"How is the progress of the Houhai headquarters building project?" Zhang Shuo asked with concern.

"The current progress is very fast. The construction experience and technology accumulation of the Zhongjian Third Bureau in the field of super high-rise buildings are first-class in China, and they have extremely rich super high-rise construction experience."

After being promoted to senior vice president, Jiang Yue was still in charge of Germination Real Estate, and did not completely abandon this business, which was also a kind of supervision of Zhu Zhenghong.

"That's good!"

If it can be completed on schedule, the headquarters building of Houhai Sprout is expected to be delivered by the end of next year.

Already Binhai speed!
Of course, Zhang Shuo also understood Jiang Yue's subtext - if you want the Houhai Sprout Headquarters Building to be delivered smoothly, you can't delay the progress of the project, otherwise it will definitely affect the construction progress.

This ability to collect debts is much better than Song Yun's.

It's a headache!

Fortunately, after paying the down payment for the patent license, and then appropriating the funds promised to the Particle Fund and Maili Technology, the entrepreneurial experience should be upgraded to level 9.

It can solve the urgent need.

At the end of the meeting, before leaving, Zhang Shuo patted Gu Mingzhang's arm affectionately, and said with a smile: "Mai Li Technology, I have officially entrusted it to you."

Although during the meeting just now, it was Song Yun who made the request the whole time.

Actually.

Gu Mingzhang is the soul of Maili Technology. Without his organizational leadership and coordination of the entire team, no matter how much support the group gives, it will only be a mess.

Can't do it.

Otherwise, the ancients said: "A thousand troops are easy to get, but a general is hard to find."

no doubt.

Gu Mingzhang is the coach selected by Zhang Shuo, or the system, for Maili Technology.

"Don't worry!"

Gu Mingzhang is not the kind of flatterer either, he just nodded emphatically.

I feel a great responsibility.

Not to mention the previous tens of billions of expenditures, he can't live up to the amazing design of the X1.

It is bound to go all out.

It can even be said that Gu Mingzhang hopes that the X1 project will be a great success more than Zhang Shuo, because in a sense, the X1 project carries all his hopes for the rise of domestic mobile phones.

When Zhang Shuo was promised to join Germination earlier, he only saw a faint ray of dawn.

just now.

That dream and the future seem to be within reach.

There is no reason not to work hard.
