Actor: Thank you.

Zhang Yuan was exchanging ideas with a group of "experts" in the conference room.

He not only reported on his achievements overseas, but also asked the other party about some things.

Especially in terms of data usage.

The other party still did not say it explicitly.

The advantage of a background Trojan is that it continuously obtains data, similar to digging a well rather than bringing back a bucket of water.

But the team has more than just a bucket of water.

In addition to the wind tunnel, there is also a variety of aerodynamic research data.

Although the hybrid era in F1 began in 2014, it was met with a barrage of criticism at the time.

The addition of an electric motor and battery reduced the engine size to a 1.6-liter V6.

The most obvious difference is the sound.

No matter how powerful a V6 engine is, its sound can never compare to that of a V12 or V10 engine.

In the V10 era, even standing by the fence watching cars pass by, you could still feel the buzzing in your head if you covered your ears.

At maximum speed, the noise level can reach 140+ decibels.

The plane was only going 120 km/h when it took off.

The roar of the engines can ignite the passion of the audience, but once the noise subsides, the enthusiasm for watching the game diminishes considerably.

Not to mention the "whirring" sound of Formula E cars.

But this is only for racing cars. For the sake of visual appeal, civilian cars should be as quiet as possible, especially at night when people are resting. Who wants to hear the roar of their neighbor's V12 engine?

It will be a while before it's implemented in 14, but F1 introduced the KERS system in 09.

Translated into Chinese, it is a kinetic energy recovery system, which includes several components such as energy storage, release, and recovery of the flywheel.

It can provide a maximum power output of 60 kilowatts for the race car.

This system for recycling, converting, storing, and releasing electrical energy is high-tech even today.

Later, electric cars and hybrid cars appeared on the road, so it became commonplace.

Tesla, which later vigorously promoted the "one-pedal" mode and claimed to have an advanced kinetic energy recovery strategy, has an overall energy recovery efficiency of around 35%.

His vigorous promotion of the product is also related to its poor energy efficiency.

The KERS system in F1 can achieve a recovery efficiency of 70%.

The recycling technology used in civilian vehicles was first tested by Renault in F1 racing in 07, then applied to other races, and finally to daily life.

Converting racing cars for civilian use has always been one of the ways European car companies maintain their technological leadership.

Their technology and its practical application have been developed and practiced for decades, making them quite sophisticated.

Until China switched to electric car tracks...

Following up on the topic, Zhang Yuan brought up the issue of new energy vehicles.

Tesla has now been established, and the sports car used to showcase its technology has already been built.

In island nations, the Prius model sells quite well in Europe and America.

He then specifically mentioned F1's application and prospects for hybrid technology.

While talking, they looked at the tech guys.

Sure enough, he looked curious, but his expression was somewhat unnatural.

snort!
Who knows what information you guys might be peeking at?

By saying this, he was implying that he knew the truth.

I'm not just dealing with wind tunnel data.

There are many treasures to be found.

“We also need to pay attention to intellectual property rights, otherwise foreign companies will always sue us at the WTO.”

He meant that after a while, a certain state-owned enterprise's hybrid technology would suddenly "break through".

How will we explain that then?

The villagers shared with you the details of controlled nuclear fusion... Civilization VI.

You can't say it like that.

Remind the other party not to scam you, because they'll find out when they investigate further.

Furthermore, it can further enhance one's "status".

I have rendered meritorious service to the country!
"Okay, you did a good job."

"It's good that you have your own ideas about cutting-edge practical science," the veteran expert praised.

"Please, everyone, you're too kind. I'm just observing and speculating."

"He only knows a little bit and is just showing off in front of you all."

"But I think that if I have a child someday and the child has this kind of mind, I will definitely make him study science."

"It's much more responsible and has a greater sense of mission than making money through acting, and it makes a greater contribution to the country."

Several senior experts were quite pleased to hear this, saying, "You've got good judgment, buddy."

If Brother Qian were there, he would definitely say it.

"You mean, the scientist is your son..."

Fortunately, the old expert doesn't watch crosstalk or play on ethical jokes.

"Don't underestimate yourself. As an actor, it's also important to bring joy to the people."

"Qian himself was very knowledgeable about philosophy and art, and he believed that these humanities subjects needed to be combined with science, and there was no distinction between them," the expert replied.

"Yes, yes, you're absolutely right."

Zhang Yuan readily flattered him, adopting an attitude of "enlightenment" and that entering the entertainment industry was a "detour."

Give these guys a quick and easy meal.

That's great! With this kind of awareness, playing Mr. Qian will naturally be no problem.

Seeing that "De Gaulle" had already showered these experts with praise, Zhang Yuan was about to reveal his true intentions.

"After getting in touch with the crew of the film 'Qian Xuesen,' I realized the importance of communicating with technical talents."

"It can broaden one's horizons."

"So recently I met a group of friends, all of whom came from Kingsoft Networks."

"You all know Kingsoft, right? It's the company that makes antivirus software."

Some nodded, while others didn't respond.

"This group of technical talents is now developing their own mobile terminal operating system, and they have succeeded."

"We are currently developing terminal adaptations for this system."

Abbreviation: Making mobile phones.

Zhang Yuan's rambling was all for Jun'er's sake.

He was exhausted; he'd never had this much trouble picking up girls.

With that kind of effort, I could have had three older women give birth to eight children for me.

On his way back from the island nation, Zhang Yuan communicated with the other party again and agreed to two more jobs.

It's even more troublesome than Sharp.

The first issue is the manufacturing problem with Foxconn.

The other one is even more troublesome.

First, to manufacture communication equipment in China, a mobile phone production license issued by the Ministry of Information Industry is required.

This qualification is extremely stringent; apart from state-owned enterprises, almost no one can obtain it.

Fortunately, that piece of junk was cancelled.

It was cancelled at the end of 07, and starting in 08, counterfeit phones exploded.

This is a common phenomenon in China: "Too much control leads to stagnation, too little control leads to chaos."

Even after this qualification is cancelled, private companies can still produce mobile phones, but they will still need three certificates.

SRRC certification, or Radio Transmission Equipment Type Approval Certificate, requires a separate application for each mobile phone.

This is easy to do.

3C certification is something you can get as long as the product is from a legitimate manufacturer.

The most troublesome part is the last one, CTA certification, also known as the network access license.

Whether or not a product has CTA certification is basically the standard for distinguishing between genuine and parallel import products.

These are just the three major certificates, and they're enough to keep Jun'er busy.

Zhang Yuan thought and thought, but he was completely clueless about the information department. Who could he turn to?

He wanted to refuse, but after the other person finished talking about the documents, they started talking about other things.

Mobile phones, especially those from earlier years, were sold not only in specialty stores and shopping malls, but also through another very popular channel.

Carrier!
With the rise of online shopping, the operator sales model still exists, but its popularity has been declining year by year.

The three major telecom operators, namely China Mobile, China Telecom, and China Unicom, will also sell contract phones together with brands.

Low or zero down payment, plus a monthly data plan costing a few hundred yuan, along with the phone.

Back then, let alone data traffic, even monthly SMS subscriptions were expensive.

Therefore, many people are willing to buy contract phones.

Besides contract phones, there are also customized phones, where the carrier pre-installs software and advertisements that cannot be deleted except by glitching the phone.

It will also include some special features, such as VoLTE HD calling.

Customized phones are generally slightly cheaper than regular phones because they are purchased in large quantities by mobile phone brands from carriers, resulting in lower purchase prices.

These products of the times have faded away rapidly with the acceleration of the internet and the widespread adoption of WeChat.

If we can partner with telecom operators, the product can quickly expand into the market, especially in third-tier cities.

Residents in rural areas and small towns don't know much about big brands and don't have much money. They are easily persuaded to choose compatible models after being recommended by sales staff at the operator's stores.

Unlike in big cities where everyone buys Apple or Samsung phones, partnering with carriers is also a way to completely differentiate themselves from counterfeit phones.

Then another question arises: you're just a small, run-down company, which of the three major telecom operators would bother with you?

Even the worst companies have to compete with brands like ZTE, TCL, and Haier. What kind of junk is this cheap brand?

Therefore, Jun'er encountered many difficulties in the early stages of his business, repeatedly met with setbacks, and suffered a lot of cold shoulders.

But it also cultivated his good mindset. People won't become mature and experienced if they don't suffer some hardships and face some cold looks.

When the topic of telecom operators came up, Zhang Yuan put his mind to it.

Then I thought of the IT department, and considering I had just finished a trip to Europe and America…

He realized that direct contact was not an option, but indirect contact seemed possible.

However, it is extremely costly!

This expenditure is not of wealth, but of human relationships.

present.

"They want to reach out to people in the telecom operators and the IT department."

"This will allow us to adjust the company's systems and strategies more scientifically."

"Startups are not easy; they are like newborns, constantly encountering obstacles while learning."

"If there is a pre-drawn path to follow, there will be fewer stumbles."

Zhang Yuan spoke to these people with utmost sincerity.

Why are people from the Aerospace Science and Technology Institute and the Chinese Academy of Sciences coming here?

The production team of the TV series "Qian Xuesen" needed consultants, and half of Qian Xuesen's disciples were top talents in rocket-related fields.

So what is the purpose of rockets?

In addition to warhead propulsion, it also has the function of space transportation.

One of them is communications satellites.

In addition to military satellites, there are also civilian satellites.

Many satellites bear the logos of the three major telecom operators.

Many high-end mobile phones in later generations had satellite communication versions, including carrier-customized models that used the carrier's satellite transmission to allow users to use emergency communications even in remote mountains or at sea.

Both the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASC) and the Chinese Academy of Sciences have long-term and direct cooperation with the Ministry of Information and telecommunications operators.

After listening to his words, the group looked at each other and then asked seriously.

"What is your relationship with these friends you mentioned?"

“We plan to cooperate, and I will provide financial support for them to run their business.”

"Understood," the other party replied succinctly.

He first offered 3600 million in reimbursement in order to raise the other party's perception threshold.

With something as outrageous as 3600 million, this small request seems less exciting now.

To put it bluntly, I'm here today to "report on my work."

There are both punishments and rewards, but it is not clear where the rewards will be given.

Now he brought it up himself.

Once you mention it, it's like consuming the rewards from this mission; even if it's not completely exhausted, it's used up most of them.

They originally wanted to give him some benefits as compensation through other channels.

That's why the other person asked about the so-called friendship.

Since you want to make money together, then I understand.

"In that case, you and your friend should first submit a detailed company report to the relevant department."

"Everything will proceed according to procedure."

"Let's see if we can help you with anything," the other person said casually.

He didn't explicitly say what to do, which showed his experience.

Some things can't be brought to the forefront. If they are, people will investigate and find out the truth.

"Thank you very much." Zhang Yuan stood up and bowed in thanks.

"You should also work hard and study more."

"Perform more works that everyone loves to watch, and promote national culture."

After offering a few words of advice, the other party said that this was the end of the day.

He immediately got up and left ahead of time.

He didn't ask about the rest; since they said they would help, they naturally had a way.

The problem Jun'er and Xiaomi are facing now is not a lack of connections, but rather that they can't find any connections at all.

Knowing which way the gates of each government office open, and having someone inside to meet you, makes things much easier.

Before leaving China Film Group, Zhang Yuan said goodbye to Lao Han again before taking a car home.

All the way home, I was still uneasy.

"I'm reluctant to let the child catch the wolf."

"Do things without paying a price."

"Keeping favors is pointless; let's do something more practical!"

The next day, he went to Zhongguancun again and arrived at the office building where Xiaomi was located.

He went straight to Jun'er's office, and as soon as he entered, he slumped into a guest chair.

"Mr. Lei, I've burned out."

"There really isn't a single drop left."

After saying that, he clutched his chest and struck a pose resembling Ge You lounging around.

"what's wrong?"

"They came in a hurry, and collapsed as soon as they arrived."

Jun'er spoke to him much more intimately than before she went to the island nation. She stood up from behind the computer and came to his side.

Zhang Yuan just lay there, not getting up.

"I've arranged a dinner with the vice president of Foxconn five days from now."

"Take a look and see who would be suitable to bring."

"Oh!" Jun'er was overjoyed to hear this.

This is great!

Being able to communicate with the vice president ensures that the company's product production will be secured.

Just like with Sharp, Zhang Yuan was in charge of making the connection, and the rest was up to them to discuss.

I can't afford to worry about the specifics; it's too much work for me.

“Um… Xiao Guan.” Jun’er called out to the company’s 14th employee, who was also the first female employee.

She was in charge of administration, and she even picked out all the furniture for the company.

This girl had interned at Kingsoft during her junior year of college. When Li Wanqiang started the company, he remembered her and called her over.

Despite being an administrative staff member, shortly after the company's founding, when discussing employee stock ownership, she gritted her teeth and invested a total of 10 yuan—her savings and the "dowry money" left to her by her parents—into the company.

The ultimate result is one choice, a lifetime of freedom.

After Xiaomi went public, she probably earned over 100 million yuan.

"Bring over one of those recliners you bought," Jun'er called out as he opened the door.

Seeing Zhang Yuan like this, he was worried that he wasn't comfortable lying down...

"Do you have any drinks?" Zhang Yuan asked, looking up as if he were an empress dowager.

"Cola, milk, and yogurt, what do you want to eat?" Jun'er replied immediately.

Zhang Yuan suddenly remembered a rumor that Jun'er used to steal yogurt from his subordinates' refrigerators when he was in the company...

Once someone becomes famous, all sorts of strange rumors and scandals will appear.

"Give me a Coke, I love something fizzy."

"I'll get it for you."

Jun'er ran out herself and got him a bottle, which was ice-cold.

"Hiccup... there's more." Zhang Yuan rolled over and moved to the recliner that Miss Guan had brought.

This guy, number 14, looked at the scene and thought, "Did my boss entertain a paralyzed person or something?"

That's too relaxed and unrestrained. You might as well just lie down on the ground.

But as expected of a big star, he looks quite handsome even when he's lounging around.

Zhang Yuan glanced at number 14.

"You go out first," Jun'er ordered, closing the door.

“I asked around on the operator’s side, including the IT department.”

"The company applies according to the rules and procedures, and they will provide convenience."

"what!"

Hearing this, Jun'er was startled.

This was something I never expected.

"Little Guan!"

Number 14, who had only taken a few steps, was called back again.

"Mr. Lei, what's the matter?"

"Prepare the rice cooker and cook millet porridge!" (End of Chapter)
