Chapter 811 Shopping
Liu Hai looked at the construction site that was being demolished. This would be the first super shopping mall in the country, containing everything for food, drink, and entertainment.

From cinemas to children's playgrounds, from restaurants to hypermarkets, the model adopted is also the unmanned vending model.

The streets of Kyoto are bustling with people, and the colors of the clothes people wear in summer are also diverse.

Young pairs of men and women held hands and talked and laughed without any hesitation.

This is because the atmosphere has gradually become more open in recent years. If it had been a few years ago, I would have been criticized, but now I'm used to it.

There were also some busy people hurrying past one passerby after another, as if they were in a hurry.

Liu Hai gets off work early, but there are already a lot of people on the road. If it is the evening rush hour after get off work, there will be even more people.

"What are we going to eat tonight?" Liu Hai held Xingxing in his arms, and the little girl looked around with her eyes rolling around.

"I want to eat ice cream." The little girl whispered in Liu Hai's ear.

When you see her bangs like this, you know that little girl has eaten enough ice cream today.

Children should not eat too much of this kind of cold food, so every family has small portions of ice cream specially prepared for children.

"I ate a few today."

"Two!"

"You are still a good boy."

“I just want to eat!”

"How about we buy some fruit?"

"I just want to eat ice cream. It's too hot."

Liu Hai saw that the little girl acted like an adult and touched her forehead, indicating that she was very hot.

"How about I take you toy shopping?"

"Okay, okay!" The little girl forgot about the ice cream when talking about toys.

Liu Hai felt very satisfied as he walked on the busy street holding his granddaughter in his arms.

I have contributed to this prosperity in my new life, not to mention that I have a happy family now.

In fact, behind the prosperity lies the strength of a country. Just look at how people in countries with insufficient national strength live.

If a country is not strong enough, it will always face unrest and oppression from others.

In fact, looking around the world in 2020, there are still many countries that have been living in turmoil for decades. It is a luxury for people there to have a stable job and a stable income, even if it is just to feed the family.

They watched their loved ones and children starve to death, but they had no time to be sad or cry, because they still had to work hard to make a living, otherwise they would be the next ones to starve to death.

It is difficult for people who have not seen these places abroad with their own eyes to understand how difficult it is to live in a powerful country, have a stable job and be able to feed your family.

Maybe we think that going to get off work and coming home every day is very mediocre and boring, but this is something that many people in many countries can hardly afford.

There are even places where some people work hard all day and only get so little pay that they can buy some sweet potatoes for their families, and those sweet potatoes are not enough to fill their stomachs.

Mediocrity is what most people live their entire lives.

In his previous life, Liu Hai had been to many places and seen many things. All he can do is to contribute his own things to make the country stronger and let the people on the street work hard for their better lives.

Looking at his granddaughter in his arms and his eyes looking at the toy store in the distance, Liu Hai felt very satisfied.

"Grandpa!" As they were about to reach the toy store, the little girl excitedly patted Liu Hai's shoulders with her warm little hands.

"It's still the same old rules!" Liu Hai said with a smile.

"Grandpa, please choose two. I haven't even eaten the ice cream yet." The little girl acted coquettishly in Liu Hai's arms, because every time Liu Hai was brought out, she was only allowed to choose one.

"How many ice creams did you eat today?"

"I ate two ice creams today, but you didn't treat me to ice cream?"

"Then I'll buy you a toy."

"But you didn't treat me to ice cream!" the little girl said and kissed Liu Hai on the face.

"Is this possible now?"

"You can choose two."

"Grandpa is so great." The little girl kissed Liu Hai's cheek perfunctorily again.

This is a toy store that sells Transformers and a variety of other toys.

The little girl likes furry toys. Seeing the furry Minions with their big eyes and smirking mouths gives her a strong sense of joy.

I chose a furry Minion, and then a Kung Fu Panda Po plush toy. There are quite a few Kung Fu Panda toy girls, but the ones I chose were all in different shapes.

Then the two of them went to a restaurant to eat. There are many high-end restaurants in Kyoto now.

When it was time to eat, there were not only the father and son, but also my junior sister and her three children were waiting here.

"Uncle." The little girl saw the third brother and shouted from afar.

"Star."

The little girl also arranged a seat for the two dolls, put them on the seat, and asked them to eat with her.

"It seems like you get off work early recently?" The junior sister handed the menu to Liu Hai.

"Just click on it. I rarely do any specific work now. I just give orders."

"I don't have to watch it every day, and it doesn't matter if I make mistakes." Liu Hai nodded.

"When are we going to visit our private island?" The junior sister was very excited when she saw the photos taken by Dabao and Amin.

"It's too hot to go now. You'll get tanned in a few days. Let's go in the second half of the year. And we have to report this to our superiors." Liu Hai knew that even if he wanted to go, he couldn't do so and he had to report this to his superiors.

"Yeah, that's settled." The junior sister thought about it and it made sense. It would be too hot to go now.

Xingxing gave the Minions toy to her uncle to play with, but he promised to return it to her when she got home.

After dinner, Liu Hai sent Xingxing home.

"Goodbye, Grandpa!" Xingxing held the two dolls and said goodbye to Liu Hai at the door.

"Goodbye!" Liu Hai waved.

"Are you going to invest in the fund this year?" the junior sister asked when she got home.

"We need investment. On the one hand, national infrastructure requires funds, and on the other hand, there are many children who need help." Liu Hai nodded.

There are people with family difficulties in every era, and even in developed countries there are many people with difficulties.

Liu Hai only invests money in the Girls Care Fund, and all the returns from these fund investments are used for public welfare. In other words, the income from investing in highways will not be returned to Liu Hai, and this is a public welfare fund.

Of course, it is impossible to invest all the funds into highways. Part of the funds can be invested as profits, and part can be directly used for charity.

"Then I'll donate some more." The junior sister also set up a major disease relief fund, mainly targeting some major diseases, especially congenital heart disease.

"Then I'll invest some more money in you. I'm not short of money anyway." Liu Hai certainly knew what a serious illness meant to a family.

That means a family will be dragged down, and sometimes even lose both their money and their lives.

"Also, I'll donate a batch of wheelchairs." Liu Hai thought of another thing. Although wheelchairs are not expensive, many people don't have the spare money to buy them.

"Uh-huh!"

“How long will it take to get to Hainan this year?”

"We'll leave when the kids have summer vacation."

At Fenghuo Technology Company, Liu Hai came up with another game plan, which was a war chess game, also called a turn-based game. As early as 1973, a student from the University of Portsmouth invented a turn-based game, followed by Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Fire Emblem, and so on.

Of course, from Liu Hai’s perspective, the most original turn-based system is just like that.

"This is relatively simple." Ni Nan took a look and spoke.

"Yeah." Liu Hai nodded. The third-generation Loongson chip has passed the acceptance of the superior department and has been officially launched on the market. As an embedded chip, Loongson chip can be used in many fields. With the improvement of performance, it will provide more requirements for equipment.

Embedded chips are used in many modern smart devices.

Fenghuo Technology Laboratory has already produced smart washing machines, smart rice cookers, and smart refrigerators. Of course, the prices are very expensive now, because even a small circuit board is very expensive.

However, there are still people willing to pay for it. Liu Hai can understand this behavior. In the previous life, someone went abroad to buy a toilet seat. Although it was a smart toilet seat, some people liked it.

"List the application laboratory separately, and everyone can put forward any ideas. If they are adopted, they will receive a considerable bonus." Liu Hai decided to split the laboratory.

The application laboratory is to transform the achievements of Fenghuo Technology Company into various applications.

"Okay, boss." Ni Nan never asked why.

"Even if it is separated, you will still be in charge, so that communication can be better. Find someone responsible to manage it, so that you will have one less thing to do." Liu Hai did this mainly to reduce Ni Nan's workload. It is a real complete separation, but it is impossible because the application laboratory develops applications based on the results of Fenghuo Technology Company. If it is completely separated and independent, communication will be more difficult.

Liu Hai knew how difficult it was to completely resolve a problem when they were in two different departments, and sometimes they even passed the buck back and forth.

"I'll give the boss a few candidates later." Ni Nan nodded.

Liu Hai looked at the second document, which was about the progress of the first international e-sports competition.

"Haha!" Liu Hai laughed when he saw that the number of people who had signed up for Bald Eagle had reached 2500.

"In fact, there are many Panda computers in Bald Eagle, but there is still a legal loophole in Bald Eagle for assembling computers with spare parts. We are afraid that Bald Eagle will suddenly introduce a law to prohibit the influx of Panda computer spare parts." Ni Nan said.

"It's very possible. We shouldn't put our hopes on the market there." Liu Hai nodded.

"According to the news, Nokia has developed a mobile phone that is about the same size as ours." Ni Nan added

"The market is so big, let them come in, but you have a suggestion, let's lower the shipping price a bit more." Liu Hai certainly knew that the mobile phone industry is now a highly profitable industry.

At the beginning, mobile phones may not have much profit, but with the stabilization and expansion of the related industrial chain, costs in all aspects have gradually decreased, and now the profit of mobile phones is already very high.

“Don’t you want dealers to lower prices?”

"There's no need to ask for this. We need to let Nokia make money, and then other companies will come in, and then we'll lower the price." Liu Hai certainly knew that analog phones would only last for a few years.

As long as Nokia can make money, other companies will follow.

When the time comes, the price of Panda mobile phones will drop again, and companies like these that have rushed in will happily start production, while others will go bankrupt crying.

"understand!"

"We also need to keep a close eye on the development of MP1." The MP1 that Liu Hai mentioned is the technology used in the first generation of VCDs.

This technology has many disadvantages, and some blocks will appear during playback.

Historically, VCDs did not become popular in developed countries, but instead became popular in underdeveloped countries for this reason.

Of course, Blu-ray DVDs are still very common in developed countries, because to be honest, they are smoother, clearer and more effective than online videos.

When Liu Hai traveled through time, Blu-ray DVDs were also mainstream abroad.

"Yeah!" Ni Nan took out a small notebook and wrote it down.

"Motorola plans to sell the mobile phones it produces." Ni Nan added.

"Many underdeveloped countries have set their sights on this batch of electronic products. The cost of dismantling these electronic products in Bald Eagle is very high, but in many underdeveloped countries, the electronic components inside are a rare treasure."

"Let's forget it. The secondary disassembly of these things will cause a lot of pollution." Liu Hai certainly knew that the secondary disassembly of these electronic products would use a lot of chemical raw materials.

In his previous life, Liu Hai knew that there were many places specializing in this kind of business, but it is completely unnecessary in this life.

"There are underdeveloped countries that are engaged in this industry, but they lack the technology. After all, we will have a lot of electronic products to recycle in the future," said Ni Nan.

Ni Nan knew that electronic products were updated very quickly, and in just a short period of time, the Loongson chip had developed to the third generation.

“Will this bring a bad reputation in the future? Some countries treat you like a big shot when you ask for help, but when you don’t, they point fingers behind your back or even curse you to your face?” Liu Hai knew that this industry was huge, but this industry relied on low labor costs and pollution.

Don't let your reputation be ruined by people pointing fingers at you online and accusing you of poisoning others.

"This is actually the intention of the higher authorities. Some surrounding countries are very eager to develop." Ni Nan said again.

"Let's not worry about this and let the higher authorities decide for themselves." Liu Hai thought about it and didn't know which country specifically wanted to do this recycling business.

"But our products must not use these parts that have been disassembled for the second time."

"If we find anyone using re-disassembled parts, we will cancel their authorization."

"Of course we have no control over OEM products." Liu Hai thought of this.

"Yeah!" Ni Nan thought that most electronic components could be reused, just like the components inside those unsellable Motorola mobile phones are all brand new.

But if the boss says no, then no, Ni Nan won’t ask the boss why anyway.

"Boss, is the lab still short of people?"

When Liu Hai heard this, he suddenly realized that it was graduation season again.

"Then go to Oriental University and select another group of people."

"thank you boss!"

"It should be me thanking you!"
