Development of productivity started in 1981

Chapter 74 Xingyao Electronics
On Monday and Tuesday, the teacher mainly asked the students to review, so Wang Jiankun's seven disciples had more time to prepare for the upcoming exams.

According to Zhizi's diagnosis of the knowledge mastery level of each of them, Wang Jiankun temporarily distributed pre-exam review materials to them, hoping that they could all get good results in this final exam.

Wang Jiankun was preparing to go to Guangzhou during the review and examination period.

First of all, the second floor of the underground base has been excavated, and half of the first floor has been excavated. At present, the space in the underground base is very empty. In addition to the experimental reactor and energy storage equipment on the fourth floor, there are several cloud chambers and a set of D-type particle accelerators built on the third floor. All other equipment has been moved to the scrap recycling station.

Wang Jiankun plans to manufacture a 3-megawatt reactor next year. Before that, he still needs to dig a heat storage reservoir underground to direct the waste heat into the reservoir, and then dig a connecting pipe to the Le'an River, and regularly change the water to transfer the waste heat.

Because the experimental reactor had been generating electricity and emitting heat for more than a month, the energy storage equipment was always fully charged. Wang Jiankun installed as many lighting lamps as possible and strengthened the ventilation facilities. The experimental reactor had to be shut down for the next few days, otherwise the generated electricity could not be used, the reactor would become hotter and hotter, and there would be a risk of core melting.

Moreover, Wang Jiankun observed during the days when it snowed that the snow could not stop at the vents at all. It melted as soon as it fell, forming a sharp contrast with the surrounding areas covered with snow.

Fortunately, the vent is near the top of the mountain, and few people use the road behind the mountain, so the chance of being discovered is very small. However, if the waste heat is not discharged through other means, the abnormality will be discovered sooner or later.

After breaking through the first layer, Wang Jiankun prepared to dig deeper underground. While digging the reservoir, he also dug a circular pipe to prepare for the manufacture of a circular particle accelerator.

Because a three-megawatt reactor generates more than 2400 degrees of electricity per hour, and if there is no large electricity consumer using it, no matter how big the energy storage device is, it will be useless.

Circular particle accelerators are big power consumers. Maintaining their orbital magnetic field requires a lot of electricity, and keeping them low temperature also requires a lot of electricity. Accelerating particles and running various equipment also require a lot of electricity. Using them in conjunction with a reactor is the best choice.

So for now, we will use the experimental reactor first, and then build it after we have prepared all the preliminary work and obtained more accelerator information.

On the first and second nights of the exam, Wang Jiankun drove a speedboat to Sizhou Town and also went to Hukou Town with the boat to check on the mental state of the shipping team members.

I found that they were all working very hard and were able to teach the people who were training with them well.

Wang Jiankun paid the shipping team very high salaries, with a basic salary of 60 yuan, one day off a week, and corresponding commissions. All in all, the captain could get 1 yuan a month, the first mate could get 150 yuan, and the waiter could get 120 yuan, which was much better than working in the lighter factory.

Moreover, there is another subsidy for helping to train new employees this year. According to the training curriculum, after two months of training, you can get a subsidy of 60 yuan, which is equivalent to 30 yuan per month, so these people are currently working very hard.

The trainees are also very serious because if they complete the training and pass the assessment, they can officially start work and get such a high salary.

Moreover, most of these new recruits were from several nearby production teams. They had long envied the people in Wangjia Production Team for being able to receive wages every month, and the wages were higher than the monthly wages of the commune cadres. Now that they had such an opportunity, they certainly did not want to miss it, so they were particularly serious during the training.

Wang Jiankun felt relieved after reading it. Although the captains had to send the day's work briefings to Wang Jiankun via text machines every day, the text information would always be modified, and current wireless communications could not support video transmission well, so he still needed to visit the Hukou station occasionally to check.

Wang Jiankun has already upgraded the mobile communication system to support voice communication, but Wang Jiankun has no plans to use it domestically for the time being. Instead, he gave his uncle eight base stations and the corresponding control center equipment and asked him to try them out in his base first.

Because his area is mountainous, even though the territory is not large, he still installed 8 base stations to cover the entire base and several adjacent spheres of influence.

The power source is of course solar energy and a corresponding energy storage system, which can ensure that communications will not be interrupted 24 hours a day. It is also digitally encrypted, so it is very difficult for outsiders to crack it without the secret key.

It has been more than 20 days since the equipment was sent. My uncle said that it has been fully installed and it works very well after the trial. He asked Wang Jiankun where he got the technology and said it is better than Motorola mobile phones.

Wang Jiankun told him not to worry about the source of the technology. This equipment was for him to try out, and he was asked to help test it. Any related problems should be sent to him in a timely manner via shortwave radio so that Wang Jiankun could make improvements.

Thanks to the availability of an instant communication system, my uncle has commanded the people in the base to repel a premeditated joint attack. The three forces in the south close to the government army have colluded together to launch a New Year's Day offensive.

With the instant messaging system, my uncle and the military commander of the base discovered the number of the invading enemies, their equipment and their advance routes in a timely manner, so they quickly defeated the invading enemies and took advantage of the situation to attack the enemy's territory, destroying one of their forces and seizing their territory.

Seeing that the situation was not right, the other two forces immediately sent people to negotiate, and finally paid compensation and gave up the waterways bordering the government forces. My uncle's base will be able to transport supplies by water in the future, and except for passing through the waterways controlled by the government forces, other forces will no longer be able to stop it.

In November, Wang Jiankun sent his uncle the construction drawings of three hydropower stations, and in early December he provided him with a lot of construction tools and equipment, such as four 11KW turbines and six 3KW turbines. Wang Jiankun planned to send some parts of the corresponding transformers to Hong Kong, assemble them in Hong Kong, and then have his uncle transport them back for installation.

Other wires, switches, lights, etc. can be purchased in Southeast Asia. Southeast Asia is currently receiving industrial production capacity transferred from the United States and Japan, so some basic electromechanical equipment can still be purchased at a not very expensive price.

The hydropower station is currently excavating earth, and it will take at least half a year to complete its construction. This is because Wang Jiankun's construction plan makes full use of the terrain and minimizes the amount of earthwork and pouring.

As for building a larger hydropower station, we do not have the capacity to do so at present. The total generating capacity of 2.4 megawatts under construction is sufficient for the initial development needs. Once the five small industries in the base are initially completed, further construction will be carried out. By then, the manpower and material resources that can be mobilized will be several times or even dozens of times the current amount.

Wang Jiankun's plan for his uncle's base in northern Myanmar was to spend the first three years building it with peace of mind, developing productivity and military strength, slowly eroding the territory and population of surrounding forces during this period, and then launching a large-scale offensive to fully occupy the Myitkyina part of northern Myanmar, and then observe the reactions of surrounding major powers.

According to Wang Jiankun's calculations, that was the time when the United States launched its final offensive against the Soviet Union, and it certainly would not have the time to intervene in the affairs of the heart of South Asia.

At that time, we will communicate well with the country and then develop southward along the river depending on the situation. After opening the estuary, we will have greater room for development.

In the Indian Ocean, Wang Jiankun will ask his uncle to seek opportunities to occupy or purchase and lease some islands, so that he can build a navy and even use them as bases for launching rockets in the future.

----

The last day of the exam was Friday, January 1982, 1. After the exam that afternoon, Wang Jiankun rode his motorcycle to Raozhou and took the train to Guangzhou at around 8 o'clock that evening.

This time, Cheng Xing helped me buy a soft sleeper. Since I was traveling alone, I didn't have the luxury of booking a private compartment.

The journey was relatively safe. The soft sleeper compartments were under the special attention of train police, so thieves generally wouldn't come. While I was eating in the dining car and listening to passengers chatting, I heard about a theft that had occurred in the hard seat compartment in front.

A theft gang stole more than 3 yuan from three people who were about to take them to Guangzhou to purchase goods. When they were stealing from the last person, they were discovered. The thief actually stabbed that person, but fortunately he didn't stab the vital part and the bandage was bandaged with the help of the train attendant.

The gang members also calculated the time well and committed the crime when the train was slowing down when entering the station. The thief who was discovered jumped out of the train and fled, and the gang also went to other compartments and finally ran away.

Wang Jiankun did not bring any valuable luggage this time, so he slept peacefully on the train at night, and during the day he used his superpowers to observe the situation on the train and along the line.

There was a section of road where there were a lot of thieves. Wang Jiankun couldn't stand it anymore, so he used his superpowers to do something when the thieves were trying to escape, and let the passengers and train police catch about ten thieves, thus eliminating the backbone of the gang on that road.

When the thieves were caught, they were very puzzled as to why the car windows and doors could not be opened when they tried to open them, while the train attendants and passengers could open them just by pulling them. As a result, almost their entire gang was caught in one fell swoop, with only a few people who were keeping watch and searching for fat sheep not being caught on the spot.

The journey was much safer after that. The thieves kept in touch with each other and knew that this train was a bit weird, so they dared not move again.

After arriving in Guangzhou, his uncle came to pick him up, and Wang Jiankun got off the car carrying a small bag and pulling a black trolley case.

"Uncle, I'm here." Wang Jiankun saw his uncle first after leaving the station.

"Jiankun, what did you eat when you went back? You grew so fast. Give me the suitcase and I'll take it." "Uncle, just lead the way. The suitcase is not heavy. I was delayed before because of the poor food. In the past six months, I have been eating meat and oily food frequently, so I have grown a lot faster."

"Then your sister has grown taller, right? She looked fine the last time I saw her, but she's much shorter than the kids in the city."

"She has grown a bit taller and gained a lot of weight. Now that conditions are better, she has become a bit picky about food and won't eat anything that doesn't taste good."

The uncle and nephew chatted all the way, then they hailed a taxi at the door and went to the guesthouse where they had visited last time to put their luggage.

In the evening, his uncle treated him to a big dinner and they went shopping at the night market by the river before returning to the guesthouse.

My uncle is still living in the company's dormitory, so I didn't take him to see the residence. I heard from my uncle that the company is already building a house and should be able to allocate him a house of about 60 square meters next year. If he gets married, maybe he can get an 80-square-meter house.

In the room of the guesthouse, his uncle told him roughly about Cheng Yong's lighter foreign trade business.

Just as his uncle said, Chen Yong exported lighters at a low price, and then his overseas partners helped him buy some in-demand items in China with the difference. When importing, the customs declaration price was also at a low price, and then he sold it through domestic distribution channels to make a profit. This made more money than exporting at a normal price and then settling the account.

His current export volume is not large. In December, he exported about 12 yuan worth of lighters, and then imported more than 80 foreign goods. According to the domestic sales of these goods, he earned at least double the profit.

However, the country cannot control this situation, and because currency exchange does cause merchants to suffer losses, it has not completely blocked this road. However, if it becomes bigger, it will not work. They will definitely investigate whether the export and import prices are reasonable, and then a piece of document can block his way.

Wang Jiankun didn't have any good solution for the time being. It was up to Cheng Yong to decide how far he could go. Now that the sales of lighters in the north were slowly increasing, they no longer relied on him alone, so he would still provide the necessary support. As for his non-compliance, it depended on whether he could correct it in time.

After talking about his story, he talked about the electronic watch factory. Currently, the electronic watch factory has two low-end product lines in production. The chips are manufactured using 20-micron precision lithography machines and etching machines. The production capacity of each line is 1.2 chips per day.

The factory price was 10 yuan each, with a gross profit of 80%. Because the material and design were much better than those bought at roadside stalls at the time, they looked very high-end and durable, so many people came to wholesale.

At present, all the products produced every day can be sold, and the inventory is only about 3 turnovers. Moreover, before the Chinese New Year, many traders came from the north and started to buy in large quantities, so the inventory will soon bottom out.

My uncle was very happy to talk about this. The first mass-produced product sold well and the factory was running smoothly. All his efforts were not in vain.

Of course, Wang Jiankun did not let my uncle help in vain. He left him 5% of the shares, so my uncle was very concerned about this factory. If Wang Jiankun had not persuaded him to stay in the import and export company, which was better than managing a business, my uncle would have wanted to resign.

According to the 5% dry shares, if dividends are distributed, according to the current two-line calculation, he can get tens of thousands of yuan a year, which is more than ten times his current salary.

Wang Jiankun asked his uncle to quickly arrange the marriage so that he could let his future aunt hold the shares on his behalf and the dividends could be spent openly.

According to my uncle, my future aunt's surname is Ye. She is 8 years younger than him and is 30 years old this year. She is the daughter of a brother of an overseas Chinese in China. She had not found a suitable partner before because of her family background. After the economy was opened up, everyone wanted to get in touch with her because of her family's overseas connections, but she didn't want to settle because of her age, so she delayed it for a few more years.

Two months ago, her uncle introduced her to her uncle. After the two met, they felt a good relationship and started dating. On New Year's Day, the uncle even went to meet the girl's parents. If nothing goes wrong, he will definitely be able to attend his uncle's wedding this year.

It was because of Wang Jiankun's analysis and for the sake of his family's future that my uncle decided to stay in the import and export company. After all, this is a public position, which will make things much more convenient. In addition, import and export trade will surely increase significantly in the future, so staying in this company will bring better prospects.

His uncle told him about the situation of his future aunt's family, and Wang Jiankun also had a preliminary impression. The Ye family lived in Xiangshan and used to make a living by farming. After his uncle came back, he invested in a cannery in the local area, and her family stopped farming. His future aunt went to the factory as an accountant. She had a high school education and could have gone to college, but she didn't for some reasons. A few years ago, after her uncle came back, she went to a technical secondary school to study accounting.

Wang Jiankun chatted with his uncle until very late that night. His uncle obviously did not treat him as a child and told him many things.

Early the next morning, my uncle came to the guesthouse on a motorcycle and took Wang Jiankun to the electronic watch factory located in Nansha District at the mouth of the Pearl River.

This electronic watch factory was a joint venture with the district, which invested in factory buildings and land, which was equivalent to a 26% stake. Wang Jiankun asked his uncle to help set up a shell company in Hong Kong, which together with his uncle's company held 64% of the shares.

The shares of Wang Jiankun, his elder uncle and his younger uncle are distributed 45%, 24% and 5% respectively. Currently, the 5% is still held by Wang Jiankun's company and will be divided once the policy becomes clear.

The representative sent by my uncle was called Chen Xingdong. He was waiting at the gate of Xingyao Electronics Factory. Wang Jiankun saw him from a distance. He was wearing a gray suit, maroon leather shoes, a middle-parted hairstyle, and plain glasses. He looked very bookish.

In fact, Wang Jiankun knew his background very well. His uncle had already told him that Chen Xingdong's hometown was Foshan, and he was also an educated youth. However, he only graduated from high school. After arriving in the south of Yunnan, he couldn't stay there, so he ran away after his uncle and his friends followed the path they had paved. Later, he had no other choice but to join the team formed by his uncle and his friends.

Because he could speak Cantonese and had a delicate and gentle appearance, like an educated person, he was sent to Hong Kong to do external liaison work, collect intelligence, and purchase things.

Because he spoke Cantonese well, no one excluded him in Hong Kong, so he quickly gained a foothold. He also used the organization's funds to set up a language school to provide Cantonese lessons to those who fled to Hong Kong, and to recruit members for the organization at the same time.

This time he was sent to the mainland as a representative of Hong Kong capital. After some hard study, he did his job quite well and could talk about some things about foreign companies in detail.

Fortunately, Wang Jiankun did not ask him to come to cheat the mainland, otherwise he might have been cheated.

When Chen Xingdong saw the person his uncle had told him to treat well, he hurried forward to shake hands with him. Wang Jiankun told him to act a little arrogant and pretend to be genuine, and to treat him as a hired technician in public.

He thought quickly and turned his target of currying favor with his uncle, deliberately ignoring Wang Jiankun. After entertaining him, Wang Jiankun picked up the work clothes and ID card prepared for him and stepped into the 10-micron precision chip production line.

After blowing away the dust in the preparation room, Wang Jiankun entered the chip production workshop. After using his superpowers to investigate, he asked Zhizi to quickly analyze and find out the reason why the yield rate did not meet the standard.

First, the dust removal net of the dust removal equipment was not installed properly, resulting in the cleanliness level in the workshop not meeting the standard. Then, the alignment system of the lithography machine was damaged, probably because it was damaged during transportation or installation, resulting in occasional misalignment during production, causing a large number of chips to fail to meet the design requirements, and these workers could not analyze the reason.

Wang Jiankun first reinstalled the dust removal net, and then used his super powers to repair the damaged parts. After letting the dust removal equipment work for 4 hours, he asked the workers to start trial production in the afternoon. The yield rate was greatly improved to 85%.

However, Wang Jiankun was not satisfied. He spent an afternoon re-training the workers and asked them to work strictly according to the requirements, because any carelessness would cause the yield rate to drop by several points.

It was not until the next afternoon that the yield rate of this most advanced production line in the country was finally raised to 96%.

In fact, there is still room for improvement, but for these technicians and operators who have at most graduated from technical secondary schools, the energy, time and money required to improve further are not proportional, so maintaining a 96% yield rate is enough.

The chips produced by this line will be used in the most high-end electronic watches. Although they only utilize 40% of their performance when used in electronic watches, Wang Jiankun does not want to design another low-end chip, so this is the best option at present.

Wang Jiankun also plans to use this chip in game consoles. By then, Xingyao Electronics will have another product, chip production can be expanded again, and more talents can be trained.

Here in Nansha District, Wang Jiankun hopes to cultivate a strong electronic industry chain, give full play to the human resource advantage, and seize the upstream of the electronic industry at the moment when the United States is moving from the real to the virtual, rather than allowing Japanese and Korean companies to come to the country and take advantage of the power of others to make excess profits with low-end electronic products.

Moreover, this place is not far from the special economic zone across the Pearl River. When the infrastructure of the special economic zone reaches a certain level, we can invest there and enjoy the preferential policies of the special economic zone, and drive the development of both sides of the Pearl River.
