From cannon fodder to sweeping across thousands of stars.

Chapter 414 The value of one day is
Soon, Atlas Group's large-scale asset transactions in the Rubion galaxy began, and batches of elites from the financial business department arrived at their "battlefield" under the close protection of security personnel.

It can be said that those local companies that came to participate in the acquisition were intimidated by the aura of these Atlas negotiators from the very beginning.

The other party's "ready to fight" attitude made them a little confused about who was acquiring whom this time?

This directly led to the fact that in all acquisition negotiations in the first week, except for a few of the largest local companies that sent personnel of high quality and were not completely suppressed, all other local companies participating in the negotiations were all brought into the rhythm of the Atlas side.

Various transaction results that exceeded the group's internal valuation price by 10%, 18% or even 20% were transmitted back to the headquarters and played on the big screen of the Financial Business Department's "Operation Command Center" and in the department chat group.

Such "results" naturally stimulated others. After all, these trading results not only meant that the final bonus would be higher and higher, but also meant that many groups had already obtained extra points.

While the rest of the team in the Financial Business Department was actively preparing, the local enterprises in the Rubion galaxy on the other side were in a completely different atmosphere of 'dark clouds looming over the city'.

The companies that completed the harvest first did not have the excitement of getting the assets in hand at all. Instead, their negotiators all looked like they were played hard. After returning to the company to complete their reports, they immediately went to bars and other places in twos and threes to vent and relax.

Since the local galaxy's circle was so large, negotiators from other companies soon found them and asked them for first-hand intelligence while helping to pay the bill.

Without exception, the negotiators all said the same thing:

"It's pretty scary, man."

Then, under the exaggeration of these people, the negotiators sent by Atlas seemed to be some kind of terrifying existence, and there was a tendency that they would be "counter-acquired" if they were not careful.
This directly caused the remaining negotiators to feel like they were facing a powerful enemy, and also made the difficulty encountered by the Atlas negotiation team increase sharply.

There is no need to elaborate on the subsequent negotiations and acquisition. In the absence of interference from the Rubion Galaxy Autonomous Government, the acquisition process relied purely on the skills and confidence of the negotiators on both sides.

The final result was that the Atlas Group sold all its assets in the Rubion galaxy at a price 18.4% higher than the group's internal valuation, and recovered a large amount of cash.

While the Financial Business Department held a celebration banquet and announced who would be the winner of the title of "King of the Financial Business Department", major local companies in the Rubion galaxy also began to move into the assets they had just acquired.

But there was not much happiness on the faces of these corporate executives, because after spending a huge amount of money to complete the acquisition, they found that it was not easy to continue to maintain the operation of these companies.

"What about the administrative staff? Why are there no administrative positions in the company? How do they communicate with each other? How did they communicate before?"

"Why are these skilled workers paid so much? And their working hours are so short? Is this reasonable? How can we ensure productivity?"

"Change it! Change it all!"

The bosses couldn't stand it anymore and started to make rectifications.

"Re-hire supervisors and administrative staff at all levels, adjust the employee salary structure, and improve the labor efficiency ratio. You should learn more from the advanced experience of the large companies in the core galaxy and learn how they make money."

A boss who had just visited a "big factory" in the core galaxy of the Federation said:

"I think the management experience of these large companies is worth learning. Do you know what the value of one day is?"
-
"A day is worth 24 hours, 1440 minutes, and every minute counts to ensure our new equipment is delivered to the hands of our brave federal soldiers sooner."

When Nadel walked into the final assembly workshop of the new HCP of Boqi Heavy Industry, a huge and eye-catching slogan was projected in the most conspicuous position of the workshop.

Next to the slogan, there was a huge countdown, and every tick of the second made Nadel's heart beat.

It was only six hours since the last time he got off work, and his tense nerves had just relaxed for a short time. Under the effect of the refreshing drink, he had to tense up again. His position was to supervise the production quality of the workshop. In addition to paying attention to the operation of the assembly line he was responsible for, he also had to conduct sampling inspections on the last products off the line.

The new HCP 'Blade Mantis' recently launched by Boqi Heavy Industries to compete with the Atlas 'Sacred Shield' series has won a large order from the Federal Army and will be directly supplied to the front line after production is completed.

Although Boqi Heavy Industry has many final assembly workshops, under the huge pressure of orders, each final assembly workshop has entered a crazy operating rhythm.

They even came up with a ridiculous "workshop continuous operation time challenge", where all members of the workshop that can maintain production for a long time without any problems will receive extra bonuses.

As a production quality supervisor, Nadel believes that such a challenge is completely incomprehensible because it directly violates most of the basic principles of safe production.

But as a person of low status with little influence, he had no choice but to accept it silently, unless he wanted to lose the job that his whole family depended on for survival in the wartime economy.

As usual, Nadel first inspected the assembly line he was responsible for, and then came to the location where a batch of HCPs that had just come off the line were docked to start random inspections.

He skillfully used the boarding ladder to get to the cockpit of the aircraft, then opened the inspection cover under the fuselage's armpit and connected to his terminal. He then checked and tested each subsystem and independent unit according to the 'checklist'.

The previous tests were all normal, and the terminal passed the inspections one by one. Just when Nadel thought that this random inspection could be completed smoothly, the red light on the terminal made his heart stop for half a second.

"No way, it's already the last few items."

Nadel cursed and then sighed helplessly. The problems detected by the terminal would be recorded. If he did not deal with them, it would be a dereliction of duty.

"The titanium plating layer is hydrogen embrittled, the main sensor cable is damaged, and the thickness error of the electromagnetic shielding cover coating is large. This is because that idiot did not follow the operating specifications when grinding."

While checking the prompts on the terminal, Nadel jumped to the ground cursing. These problems were not big problems and could basically be solved by replacing spare parts or reproducing some components.

But the problem is that these "small problems" often do not only appear on one machine, but all the machines coming off the entire assembly line may have the same problem.

Nadel had an almost gloomy face as he conducted a large-scale random inspection of the same batch of aircraft. The problem coverage rate was as high as 65%, and the red light on the terminal made his face turn red.

"All of these need to be replaced, and I don't know if there are enough spare parts."

Feeling extremely unlucky, Nader walked towards the warehouse where the relevant spare parts were stored, preparing to urgently wake up a group of workers to correct the quality of this batch of "Dao Mantis".

But the empty spare parts storage area shattered his last hope.

The high-pressure production rhythm during this period has caused various problems with the products coming off the assembly line. With the "joint efforts" of the production quality supervisors on each assembly line, the spare parts in the warehouse have been exhausted.

At this time, the correct approach should be to report it immediately and wait for the next batch of spare parts to arrive before restoring quality.

But Nader looked at the huge holographic projection slogan above the workshop, and thought about the consequences if the workshop was forced to reset its "continuous production time" to zero because of him, and the devilish workshop director came after him.
He couldn't help but look towards another warehouse next door.

Waste storage warehouse.
