Xiaomi Heavy Industry, its first entrepreneurial venture!

Chapter 471 Individual Rapid Support Vehicle! (Third Update!)

Su Lechuan stared at the sky speechlessly, regretting why he had made that call. If he hadn't made it, he wouldn't have received Lin Yi's instruction.

If I hadn't received this instruction, I would have been the first owner of those newly built go-karts.

Ah!
With a sigh, Su Lechuan resignedly replied, "Okay, boss!"

After hanging up the phone, he picked up the walkie-talkie and began calling out to the few people running around the field: "Bring all the cars back, the boss will be coming over later."

"Also, go and drive those go-karts out of the workshop."

As the order was given, the vehicles on the test track slowed down and gradually returned to Su Lechuan's side. Behind these vehicles, Lei Jun's go-kart also slowly came to a stop beside him.
Is your boss coming over?

"Yes!"

"Want to come drive a go-kart?"

"do not know!"

"Is there a larger venue?"

"there……"

During the brief exchange between the two, Lin Yi appeared outside the experimental field fence with two other people.

He stopped, pointed at Su Lechuan and the electric scooter beside Su Lechuan's feet, and turned around to say:
"Secretary Qin, this is the electric vehicle I told you about last time. What you saw last time was just the frame; this time, we've added an outer shell."

Let's go inside first!

"Go inside and take a look!"

As they spoke, the three entered the experimental field through a small door in the fence. Su Lechuan, who was in the experimental field, noticed them the moment they appeared.

At this moment, he ran over even faster, stood next to Lin Yi, and followed him cautiously.

Arriving at the electric vehicle, Qin Chao squatted down and carefully examined it. Noticing the dust on it, he turned back and swept his gentle gaze across the experimental field.

Seeing Lei Jun playing go-karts, he raised his hand and waved as a greeting.

His gaze shifted from the electric vehicle to Lin Yi: "Could you explain the application scenarios?"

Lin Yi stepped forward, straddled the pink electric bicycle, gently turned the throttle, and controlled the pink electric bicycle to circle around Qin Chao and the others:

"Secretary Qin, putting aside those flowery statistics, what do you think of the overall working environment in recent years?"

Qin Chao knew exactly what the statistics on the flowers were, so he didn't answer Lin Yi's question immediately. Instead, he thought through the overall work environment he knew and asked, "Which aspect specifically? Safety? Working hours? Or salary? Without a specific direction, I don't understand what you want to ask."

"Working hours!" With a screech, Lin Yi slammed on the brakes, bringing the electric scooter to a stop.
"Total working hours!"

With a specific direction in mind, Qin Chao recalled for a moment, closed his eyes, gently massaged his temples, and softly recounted what he knew:

"The tasks we need to handle are becoming increasingly detailed and efficient, so the overall working hours are increasing!"

"That's obvious, I'm not quite sure why you brought this up."

"After all, their work hours don't have much to do with electric bikes. The only connection is that they need to ride bikes to and from get off work."

"But for many people, an electric car is a tool, a bus is a tool, and a subway is a tool."

"An electric bike costs several thousand yuan. If it gets stolen, it's a huge loss. It's better to take the bus or subway."

"Indeed!" Lin Yi nodded, acknowledging Qin Chao's words. The next second, he raised his right index finger and gently shook it:
"Secretary Qin, since you know that the overall working hours have been extended, you should naturally understand that a person who is busy with work should not have time to cook, right?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Qin Chao replied without even thinking, "I can eat in the cafeteria..."

This seemingly obvious statement was cut short; he lowered his head, rubbing the back of his head repeatedly, and began to mutter to himself:

"Not all companies have cafeterias, so even among those companies that have cafeterias and people who can cook, there is still a group of people who choose to eat out."

Having sorted out his thoughts, he looked up again: "So, your electric scooter is related to these people?"

"Yes!" Lin Yi nodded without hesitation. Then he squatted down, picked up a small stone, drew a circle on the cement ground, and divided the circle into three parts.

Fill in the blanks with three words in these three parts.

[Cafeteria] [Cooking/Bringing Lunch] [Eating Out]

After writing down these three words, he circled the phrase "dining out":

Just as not all companies have cafeterias, not all places are suitable for dining out.

"At this point, an unavoidable need arose."

"Someone wants to eat!"

"And the person who wants to eat is at a distance from the business."

"So, could we make a deal with this, having someone get food from a vendor and then deliver it to the person who wants to eat?"

"This is the most basic requirement!"

"After satisfying our basic needs, we can raise the bar a little higher to satisfy our appetites to some extent."

“Suppose…” Lin Yi picked up a stone and drew a vertical line on the left side of the circle and a vertical line on the right side of the circle.

Finally, a horizontal line was drawn between the two vertical lines:
"Let's say the Dongcheng District is on the left and the Xicheng District is on the right."

"There are many good restaurants in Dongcheng District, but I live in Xicheng District. I'm busy with work, or maybe I'm just lazy, so I don't want to go to Dongcheng District, but I want to eat food from Dongcheng District!"

"How to do?"

"I'll hire someone to run an errand. I'll pay them a little money, and they'll bring the things from the East District to me!"

"Has another demand emerged?"

Hearing this, Qin Chao nodded thoughtfully.

He picked up the pebble that Lin Yi had put aside and placed it on the horizontal line: "Your idea is to sell these electric bikes to this middleman who runs errands?"

"Is it right?"

"If that's the case, it can indeed be sold, but the problem is we don't have that many errand runners..."

He only got halfway through his sentence when Qin Chao suddenly looked up at Lin Yi, his eyes filled with a hint of doubt, and asked:

"You want to compile these similar requests into a single list, then release it all at once, so that everyone can run the errands?"

As soon as he finished asking the question, Qin Chao's eyes lit up. He clapped his hands and laughed as he finished speaking:
"We have a unified errand service, and the items we deliver are meals. Meals have a time limit and must be delivered at the right time. Even documents need to be delivered at the right time."

"They can't run on foot, not by bicycle, bus, or even subway!"

"They need a means of transportation that can quickly move through the streets and alleys."

That is, electric bicycles and motorcycles!

"If you ban motorcycles, all that will be left are electric bicycles!"

"If it's part-time delivery, the delivery person isn't primarily concerned with the delivery income. They won't care about the speed of the electric bicycle, as long as the delivery can be completed within a certain timeframe."

"But if they're to run errands full-time, they'll need to be even faster to complete more orders!"

"Your batteries, your electric vehicles, everything about you can help them complete orders faster and better!"

"Then you won't have to worry about sales!" "If you could unify the nationwide delivery services, your electric bikes would have even less to worry about selling!"

"Moreover, this part of the errand work can provide employment for many people."

"You little rascal..." Qin Chao rubbed his head with his hands, thinking for a long time but couldn't come up with a suitable word. In the end, he could only reluctantly utter "deeply thoughtful".

Despite receiving such praise, Lin Yi's face did not show happiness, but rather a faint sadness.

It was as if he had something incredibly important on his mind.

The change in his expression naturally did not escape Qin Chao's notice. He put his hands behind his back, circled Lin Yi once, and asked with a frown:
"Is something wrong?"

"You didn't actually hold in a huge thing, did you?!"

"No!" Lin Yi shook his head in denial, but the worried expression on his face did not disappear; instead, it became even more serious.

"Speak your mind, we're all friends here!"

Having received this, Lin Yi knew when to stop. He leaned back on the tricycle, frowned, and said:

"To accomplish what we just mentioned, we need an internet platform."

"And this internet platform relies on the construction of communication facilities."

"But our city's communication infrastructure is still unable to meet these requirements."

"If we want to expand, we need to apply the same requirements to other cities."

"This is a bit difficult!"

"Ha! You really did hold back a big one!" Qin Chao let out a cold laugh, his gaze passing over Lin Yi and landing on the tricycle next to him.

To be more precise, it was on the sacks inside the cargo box of the tricycle.

20 sacks, each weighing 50 kilograms.

A ton.

But on the cargo box of this tricycle, a line of words was painted in bright white paint: Maximum load capacity: 500 kg.

He didn't want to comment on this kind of reverse misrepresentation, and simply shifted his attention away.

His gaze lingered on the green motorcycle for a moment, then he shook his head in disdain before finally settling on the green vehicle that looked like a jeep.

He circled the strange-looking car once, then returned to Lin Yi's side:

"This is?"

After a brief moment of doubt, Qin Chao circled the car twice more. During the circle, he kept patting the car up and down with his hands, and even kicked the tires a couple of times.

Lin Yi didn't say a word while he was inspecting the car. Only when he returned did Lin Yi suddenly speak:
"Rapid Support Vehicle for Individual Soldiers!"

"WTF?"

"Rapid Support Vehicle for Individual Soldiers!"

The repeated words made Qin Chao, who had clearly heard them, jump up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

The agile movements made Lin Yi wonder if he might have strained his old back.

But Old Qin was still strong and vigorous. He jumped like that and not only did he not hurt his back, but he also landed very steadily.

After landing, he steadied himself, pointed at the strange-looking car, and calmly asked, "What do you think this is?"

"This is military equipment..."

Halfway through his question, Qin Chao quickly shut his mouth, his scrutinizing gaze sweeping over the surroundings. Noticing that only he and Xiao He seemed worried, while everyone else appeared quite casual, he swallowed the rest of his sentence and replaced it with another:
"Anyway, you're a research institute under the Navy, so just handle it yourselves!"

After saying that, he turned around and kicked the green car wheel again. After kicking it, he asked Lin Yi with a hint of resentment:

"Could you tell me what this thing is used for?"

"Aren't you afraid of leaks?"

"Anyway, I can't, so you'd better take it easy!"

"Whatever!" Lin Yi shrugged and kicked the wheel.
"This thing is designed for use in transporting personnel and ammunition on the battlefield, allowing combat personnel and ammunition to enter the battlefield quickly, and allowing the wounded to leave the battlefield quickly."

"Once it's debugged, we'll find a place to experiment."

"Wait a few years, maybe we'll see it at the military parade."

What did you see at the military parade?

Imagining the scene in his mind, Qin Chao suddenly realized that it would be really great if he could actually be part of the military parade.

Then he can go and provoke Jiang Daqiao again.

If Jiang Daqiao is transferred, he will go and anger the next Party Secretary of Nanjing.

Thinking of their angry reaction, Qin Chao felt genuinely happy and refocused his attention on the vehicles in front of him.

His right hand unconsciously reached out and gently stroked the steel, as he calmly said:

"Take some time to put together a report on what we just talked about, and then give it to Xiao He."

"I'm holding this report now. I'll attend a meeting in the city first, and after that, I'll go to the province."

"We will proactively adjust our strategic layout, and the province will definitely provide policies and support. You will definitely benefit from that."

After giving his instructions, Qin Chao called Xiao He over and pointed to the electric bikes next to him: "Take a few photos of me and these electric bikes, and a few more photos of this test site."

"Go back and write your report properly!"

Xiao He nodded, took out a camera from his briefcase, took a few pictures of Qin Chao first, and then took a few more pictures of the test site and workshop.

As soon as he put the camera back, Qin Chao walked past him and said, "Let's go, to the next place!"

The two arrived quickly and left even faster. Lin Yi followed behind them, seeing them off to the door and into the car before returning to the experimental field.

As soon as he stepped inside, Lei Jun appeared at Lin Yi's feet along with the go-kart:
"You have another project?"

"Yes!"

The very definite answer made Lei Jun a little jealous. He pulled the brakes on the go-kart and tilted his head, saying, "How about you give me some pointers?"

"Give me pointers my ass! Get your phone out here right now, I really need it for my new project! I really need it!" Lin Yi shouted hoarsely.

Upon hearing the roar, Lei Jun, who was in the go-kart, pressed the handbrake again with his left hand, released it, and the go-kart shot off like the wind.

Lin Yi wanted to curse, but when he turned around, he saw three go-karts next to him. He happily climbed into one of them, released the handbrake, and was about to step on the gas and speed off.

The cell phone rang.

Liu Yongqiang's phone call.

The call connected, and all I said was a simple message: "People from Apple are here. They've already landed and are on their way!"
