The unparalleled talent of the country started from Harbin Institute of Technology

March 1996, Boeing headquarters in Seattle, USA.

Here, Boeing has the world's largest aircraft assembly plant, and many airline purchasing teams come here to make purchases.

At this moment, in the top-floor executive conference room of the headquarters office building, a group of executives looked solemnly at the multimedia screen in front of them.

"According to market research, in the last two days of last month, Emirates Airlines signed a contract with Pioneer Technologies for 15 XF1995 aircraft."

An executive stood in front of the screen and loudly explained the situation to everyone.

Pioneer Technology Manufacturing Plant is a domestic civil aircraft manufacturing enterprise from a major country in the Far East.

This company successfully test-flew a large aircraft model, XF1995, last year.

This aircraft is directly comparable to Boeing's Boeing 747.

However, the XF1995 aircraft completely surpasses the Boeing 747 in terms of noise reduction and fuel efficiency, and is actually cheaper.

For example, a standard 747 passenger plane costs 30 million US dollars.

However, the standard version of the XF1995 aircraft was priced at only 28 million US dollars.

While it may seem like the difference of only two million dollars is a saving, it doesn't appear to offer much advantage in such a large procurement order.

However, the XF1995 large passenger aircraft has advantages in terms of fuel efficiency and noise reduction.

Moreover, Pioneer Technology Manufacturing Plant has a scientist like Wang Duoyu behind it.

It is said that Wang Duoyu is the chief designer and head of the Longxiao stealth fighter jet.

Nowadays, who in the world doesn't know that a certain major power in the Far East is equipped with such a unique aircraft?

The advantage of the Longxiao stealth fighter is very obvious: its speed is extremely high.

Its Mach 5 speed makes all other fighter jets in the world pale in comparison.

No fighter jet could escape it.

Since Wang Duoyu participated in the research and development of the XF1995 large passenger aircraft, it is obvious what the advantages of this aircraft are.

Moreover, this large aircraft also comes with a five-year warranty.

Who wouldn't like it?
However, such a warranty is certainly not free, but it is definitely much more affordable than those from Boeing, Airbus, and other companies.

This is where Pioneer Technology's advantage in labor costs becomes apparent.

Companies like Boeing are indeed no match for them.

"We've essentially raised a tiger to our own detriment. We never expected that Pioneer Technology Manufacturing Plant could complete the research and development and manufacturing of the large aircraft in such a short period of time."

The president's face was somber, and his tone didn't reveal any anger, but everyone knew he was extremely angry.

However, this collaboration was clearly beneficial to everyone at the time.

To some extent, Boeing's ability to sell so many aircraft over the past decade has been largely due to the noise reduction technology provided by Pioneer Technologies.

Nowadays, Pioneer Technology Manufacturing Plant is clearly hiding something; they have even more advanced manufacturing technologies.

And this technology was only patented last year, which is really speechless.

They don't seem worried about the technology being stolen.

"Let's discuss how we should respond. Should we lower the price, or investigate whether they are copying our Boeing aircraft or using our patented technology, etc."

In the newspapers, Pioneer Technology Manufacturing Plant claimed that their products were 100% domestically produced and entirely independently innovated.

To determine whether this is true or not, an investigation is needed; we cannot rely solely on the statement from Pioneer Technology Manufacturing Plant.

Pioneer Technology has now sold fifty aircraft in their country and signed an order for fifteen more with Emirates Airlines.

This single wave generated $1.82 billion in revenue for Pioneer Technology Manufacturing Plant.

That's a huge sum of money.

The speed at which a certain major power in the Far East has risen is astonishing.

But everyone was at a loss; they had to take each other seriously.

At the same time, it is also necessary to curb the other party's further development and restrict it in many aspects.

Inside the meeting room, the executives shared their thoughts.

They simply investigate from the perspectives of patent technology and restrictions on the import and export of raw materials, determined to stifle the other party.

100% domestically produced?

Completely independent innovation?

Hehe, whether it's true or not, won't it all be clear after the investigation is complete?
While Boeing was busy with its investigation, Airbus, far away in Europe, was also panicking because of the emergence of the Pioneer Technology manufacturing plant.

When domestic airlines of a major Far Eastern country, such as Northern Airlines, signed aircraft purchase contracts with Pioneer Technology, Airbus was unimpressed.

But now, Emirates Airlines has also signed a purchase contract for fifteen large aircraft.

Although it may seem like it's the richest country in the world with a piece of cloth over its head, Emirates Airlines certainly doesn't lack discernment.

Their airline owns a number of Boeing 747 aircraft, as well as Airbus A340 aircraft.

Emirates Airlines was well aware of this, but they still purchased fifteen aircraft from Pioneer Technologies.

This is enough to show that the XF1995 must have a huge advantage; otherwise, they wouldn't have given up on purchasing the A340 or Boeing 747.

"check!"

Airbus also stated that it would investigate the specific circumstances.

Today, only two giants remain in the global civil aircraft manufacturing industry: Airbus and Boeing.

They thought this was the established pattern, but unexpectedly, Pioneer Technology Manufacturing Plant emerged out of nowhere and suddenly took away so many orders.

This put both Boeing and Airbus on high alert.

This even led some within Boeing to consider using underhanded methods to embroil Pioneer Technologies in a scandal.

For example, they could use terrorists to create the illusion of a plane crash, fabricating the claim that the aircraft manufactured by Pioneer Technology was merely a facade.

If they then launch a smear campaign in the media, Pioneer Technology Manufacturing Plant will no longer be a threat.

This is a very good method, but it could also easily provoke a strong backlash from Pioneer Technology Manufacturing Plant.

In short, it must be used well; otherwise, it is not a good strategy, but rather a case of killing a thousand enemies while losing eight hundred of your own.

Hidab, Somali Peninsula.

Inside the underground laboratory, Wang Duoyu looked at the report in front of him, a slight smile playing on his lips.

After half a month of testing, it finally met his initial requirements.

With this, the Little Sun Project can finally be officially launched.

"Sigh, it's time to spend money again."

Wang Duoyu isn't afraid of spending money, but he's afraid of spending money only to have the project fail.

Two more days passed in the blink of an eye, and he returned to the ground.

Executives including Yabo Fein, Li Efra, Zheng Baoyin, Yu Kexue, Wang Lichuan, Wang Jianchao, Xue Lisheng, O'Brien, and Allen Costa were all present.

Today's meeting is for senior executives; it will most likely be changed to once a quarter or every six months in the future.

These meetings are usually held in the Somali peninsula, but it hasn't become a regular practice yet.

The first topic is related to what happened in Russia recently.

The KGB is now acting like it's gone mad, targeting all shady deals that happen within Russia; any deal could potentially be discovered by them.

Although this made the KGB, police, and soldiers extremely busy, it also led to a period of great harmony throughout Russia, with crime dropping to a minimum, which was a good thing.

However, many normal business activities have also been affected, causing widespread public discontent.

"We don't need to personally push this through behind the scenes. Anyway, we haven't suffered any losses; at most, it'll just cause a little trouble later."

Yabo Fein said with schadenfreude:
"I don't believe they can keep going like this; they'll probably have to give up after a while."

This makes sense.

After all, Russia is so vast and sparsely populated that completing a transaction within its borders would be incredibly easy.

With such a small population and even fewer members like the KGB, it would be virtually impossible to completely control all of their territory.

Wang Duoyu suddenly said:

"Don't always take chances; we still need to take it seriously."

"Every transaction requires thorough preparation. There can be absolutely no room for wishful thinking. Otherwise, if you suffer a setback, you'll have to pay with your life to recover."

"What is particularly alarming is that the Federal Reserve has now extended its reach to so many countries and regions, clearly indicating that they are also quite annoyed by the super-rich dollar."

"If they manage to find even the slightest fault with us, they'll definitely magnify it infinitely."

"From South America to Russia, gentlemen, this year's super dollar sales campaign may not be so easy. You should think more about how to reduce costs and increase efficiency."

He had already said back in January that the costs were too high.

Especially in the arms trade, the compensation expenditures are very high.

Simply because so many people died. Cultivating talent is not easy.

The Want Want Group must not be too indifferent to life; it must put people first and show more humanistic care.

That's the end of the matter; everyone has reached a consensus.

The business of the Super Dollar Factory has always been a matter of great interest to everyone.

This is also the point that everyone is discussing the most.

Next up was the Huachen mobile phone launch event.
Dai Ronghua excitedly reported:
"Professor, colleagues, our latest generation of Huachen mobile phones has begun mass production."

"Preparations for the press conference are complete, and we will announce it to the world on March 21st."

Yes, March 21st is the date of Huachen Mobile's launch event.

This day is the third day of the second month of the lunar calendar, which is an auspicious day.

The day before that was the Spring Equinox.

Starting the new year's mobile phone sales work with the arrival of spring is fantastic.

Of course, at this point in time, many people may not have much money in their pockets, so the sales work for Huachen mobile phones may not be so easy.

However, it doesn't matter if you don't have savings, you still have loans.

As long as a loan is available, there's absolutely no problem.

After Dai Ronghua finished his report, Zheng Baoyin held the latest version of his mobile phone, fiddling with it as he said:
"I must say, this phone is really fantastic. I just played with it for a while, and the gameplay was incredibly smooth."

Other senior executives also showered him with praise.

This latest version of the Huachen phone is equivalent to the fourth generation iPhone in the original timeline.

The front and rear fuselages are made of aluminosilicate glass, and both glass surfaces have an anti-grease coating.

The phone casing is made of a high-precision stainless steel strip forged from a custom alloy.

Overall, it's a very perfect and exquisite phone.

The rear camera is 5 megapixels, the front camera is 3 megapixels, and the display is 3.5 inches with a resolution of 960*640 pixels.

The phone also has a built-in three-axis gyroscope, which can work with the orientation sensor to provide six-axis motion sensing.

Wang Duoyu also played around with this phone, and to be honest, it was really quite good.

In the original timeline, this phone was a flagship device and a top seller.

I believe the same will be true in this timeline.

Today's meeting lasted for nearly two hours before it finally ended.

After the meeting, Wang Duoyu set off to leave the Somali peninsula.

He's been here for almost half a month, and it's really time for him to go back.

If it had been any later, I'm afraid we would have been suspected.

Two days later, he returned to Ice City from Ali's camp.

Three days after he returned, he played a friendly football match with his children.

It was a friendly match that his eldest son, Wang Junhong, and his students participated in together.

Nowadays, his student group is growing larger and larger. If it weren't for Yang Nianzhen and the others helping to teach him, he really wouldn't be able to take care of so many students.

After the friendly match, Wang Yifei expressed her desire to watch a football match.

The local city football tournament in Harbin has already started, beginning in March.

This year's football tournament may be different from previous years because there will be more teams participating in the league.

The whole country will participate at that time.

Yes, the city football league is not compared with the so-called football association league; there is absolutely no overlap between the two.

One is the so-called professional league, and the other is an amateur competition, which is related to culture and tourism.

The two sides are definitely different.

However, in terms of the excitement, precision, and appeal to the audience, the city football league is undoubtedly the best.

The athletes in the city football league are of a higher level, and the prize money is very generous, so any athlete with the ability will be willing to participate in the city football league.

Wang Duoyu didn't go to watch the game; it was Liu Xiaoli who took the children to watch it.

As time went by, it was already March 21st. On this day, a new mobile phone launch event was held in the lobby of the Huachen Mobile headquarters office building in Harbin.

Dai Ronghua stood on the podium, with a huge screen behind him, introducing this very beautiful and epoch-making mobile phone to everyone.

"Our phone uses a newly developed solid-state lattice battery, which has achieved the ultimate in battery stability and safety."

"Friends, did you know? We invested a full two billion US dollars to develop this battery."

"Solid-state lattice batteries boast an ultra-long standby time of over 500 hours, a video playback time of up to 20 hours, and an audio playback time of up to 80 hours."

hum!
The entire press conference room erupted in thunderous applause; everyone was incredibly excited.

Because everyone understands very well what kind of technological innovation such a battery will bring.

As Dai Ronghua just mentioned, this phone is a full-screen phone that can be controlled directly with your fingers, without the need for any buttons.

It is a true smartphone in every sense of the word.

Full-screen smartphones are indeed very impressive, but at the same time, the power consumption of such a phone is undoubtedly terrifying.

As we all know, there are now a large number of MP3/MP4 products on the market.

Ordinary no-name brands, as well as big brands like Huaxin, have flooded the market with MP3 products.

Battery has always been a major weakness.

Especially laptops; many business people and ordinary tourists alike hope to have a computer that can be used for extended periods of time.

Unfortunately, to date, most computer products are the same, with a usage time of only five or six hours.

There is no battery that can play videos for more than ten hours.

Huachen Mobile's solid-state lattice battery is so advanced that it allows mobile phones to play videos for up to twenty hours.

This is too scary!

It must be said that this timing was indeed a pleasant surprise for many people.

They truly deserve to be called a company that specializes in developing cutting-edge technologies; they're really impressive.

Besides the impressive battery, Dai Ronghua also introduced the display screen, phone capacity, camera, sensors, and other features.

Almost every introduction was met with thunderous applause.

Everyone was very happy.

On the day the press conference ended, Wang Duoyu returned from the lab and heard that his daughter wanted to get a new phone.

"What do you want a phone for?"

"Dad, this phone is so nice, if you won't buy it for me, I'll buy it myself."

Wang Yifei has her own little savings.

It's actually a family bank; every year, all the children's red envelopes are deposited there.

The so-called depositing in the bank is actually Wang Duoyu and Liu Xiaoli, as parents, taking the initiative to manage their money.

To prevent them from wasting money.

If you ask them to hand over the red envelopes directly, the children will definitely be unwilling.

But if you trick them into depositing their money in a fixed-term deposit and use extremely high interest rates to bind them to your account, that's a different story.

Simply put, Wang Duoyu and his associates were after the children's principal, while the children were after the interest earned by their parents.

If tens of thousands of yuan are deposited into the bank every year and locked up in a fixed deposit, then the children won't have as much pocket money.

However, there will still be a reserve fund and pocket money.

What is a reserve fund?
As the name suggests, this is a fund that can be applied for when you urgently need money.

Wang Duoyu set aside 1,000 yuan for the children.

This is a considerable sum of money, and each of their children can withdraw this thousand yuan as a reserve fund at any time.

Pocket money is the amount of money they can withdraw every week or every two weeks.

All these funds are kept in a ledger, and Wang Yifei and the others also have their own personal ledgers.

They keep a detailed record of every penny they spend, cultivating this habit from a young age.

The point is to let them know where their money goes.

What money should be spent, and what money shouldn't be spent? (End of Chapter)
