Rebirth 08: Equipment God

Chapter 286: It seems to have very high attack power.
After establishing its authority, Yueda Catering finally entered a period of rapid expansion, just as Zhai Da had predicted.

For example, regarding the industrial park he had his eye on, Wu Yue had previously bypassed Gao Cheng to inquire about it on his own, only to be turned down several times. Now, the management has proactively called to agree to Yueda's injection of capital, offering the most favorable terms and even wanting to hold a banquet to apologize.

An apology was unnecessary. Yueda signed a five-year contract to rent the old red-brick factory with a large hole and began renovations.

Together, Zhai Da and Xu Xuejun planned the design of the craft brewing equipment manufacturing plant.

Actually, craft brewing equipment manufacturing isn't that high-tech. Apart from producing a few parts ourselves, assembly is the main work. You just need to estimate what equipment you need and divide it according to the flow and area. In the initial stage, this old building is actually too big, but Zhai Da has some of his own ideas.

In the future, considering only the craft brewing equipment, only a dozen or so people will be needed here, using 40% of the area. Moreover, the original workshop-level equipment can still be used. Basically, it can be put into operation in two or three days, building as it is used.

By the way, Zhai Da also brought Lu Tao along, letting him inspect the large hole in person. Afterwards, he took him to the airport to go to Shanghai to see an exhibition and begin his investigation of the "inverted device".

For college students, this is an enviable opportunity, with all expenses covered and the benefits quite high, essentially a government-funded study abroad program.

In addition, the four branch bases in Harbin also began renovations simultaneously. Wu Yue, together with the company's key personnel, compiled a "Standardization Manual 1.0", which included standards for the branch bases, such as the requirement that material storage must be indoors, the minimum width of the shipping aisle, and the number of safety measures required for insulation and power supply.

The decoration and layout of the branch sites will be inspected and approved based on the manual, and will be continuously improved. In short, we will try our best to adapt to the needs of the business formats and increase efficiency.

It is expected that the various branch bases will gradually begin operation within a month.

But we need to solve an important problem first.

Lack of manpower.

Thursday, the back gate of Harbin Institute of Technology.

After acquiring all the row of shops, the company set up an office here, but it's usually empty with hardly anyone coming.

Today it has turned into a job fair.

Because Wu Yue was renovating the scoring base, Zhai Da specifically set aside the morning for an interview.

Today's main task is to recruit the person in charge of hiring.

In addition to the company's only two scholars, Accountant Wang and Zhai Da, they also called in outside help.

She claims to have inherited the art of physiognomy for 300 years, but because she was an only child, the art was not passed down to her. However, she still managed to become a self-taught graduate student in applied physics, thanks to her extraordinary talent.

The code inside “π”: fortune teller.

A senior in his final year of university, who had secured a place in a graduate program, had plenty of free time. Even his graduation thesis was no challenge for this top student, so he came to join in the fun.

"Next person!"

A woman in her early twenties walked in. She looked very young, like she had just graduated from university. She was interviewing for an HR position.

Accountant Wang was in charge of the opening, asking some basic questions, while Zhai Da, as the boss, was responsible for checking for omissions and making the final decision.

Ge Qiaoqiao was in charge of whispering.

This senior student, who was just over 1.5 meters tall, had to support half of her body to reach Zhai Da's ear:

"Eyes with sparse whites, thin eyebrows, a thin, pointed nose, and a thin upper lip with a thick lower lip are signs of selfishness, cold-heartedness, and a strong desire for self-destruction."

Zhai Da smacked his lips.
What an abstract chicken neck!

"Senior, how confident are you?"

Ge Qiaoqiao sneered and said confidently, "I'm still about 30% sure."

Thirty percent? Thirty percent, why are you proudly puffing out your little chest?
Ge Qiaoqiao: "Physiognomy is just an auxiliary method. What method can completely understand human nature? Even lie detectors can't do it. Anyway, it's much more accurate than astrology!"

According to Ge Qiaoqiao, physiognomy also has a scientific basis. A person's appearance is 7% determined by talent and 3% by the growth process.

The most typical examples are adenoid facies and pig-ear facies. For instance, people who are mean-spirited often squint their eyes, which affects their appearance. People who frequently frown will have marks on their foreheads. These are all caused by the facial muscles.

Exposure to wind and sun from a young age, and the harshness of life, will also be reflected in one's skin tone.

Habits, environment, lineage.
These things may not have been summarized in a very "scientific" way hundreds of years ago, but Ge Qiaoqiao, a high-achieving student who figured it out on her own, has managed to integrate them with modern ideas.

If it's right, then the fortune teller is amazing; if it's wrong, then it's just a 30% probability.

The system says that "physiognomy" is a science that has not yet been summarized and categorized, which makes some sense. Zhai Da remembers that more than ten years later there was "AI diagnosis," which analyzed the state through big data. The accuracy rate seemed to be poor, but the essence was very similar.

Perhaps in the future, as technology continues to advance, it will truly be possible to judge personality and character based on facial features.

Zhai Da neither confirmed nor denied it, but wrote Ge Qiaoqiao's comments on the resume as part of his reference.

Anyway, it's not announced in person; the best candidates are selected after all the interviews are completed.

It's actually a bit of a shame that this female college student has such nice legs.

Well, it's not that he has any bold ideas, but rather that in HR, large companies test skills, while small companies test interpersonal skills. Having a good appearance makes the job easier!

Interviewees came in and went one by one. Most of the applicants for the HR position were women, including a married woman in her thirties. Ge Qiaoqiao gave her a high evaluation, noting that her resume and experience were quite substantial, and that she had a high chance of being selected.

After a busy morning, we received a total of sixteen interviewees. Of these, three will likely be selected to become C-level employees at "Yueda Catering," and then we will begin recruiting more members for other positions.

After leaving the rarely used office, Ge Qiaoqiao stretched, revealing a flat stomach under her hoodie, and let out a groan like an old man.

It gives off a feeling of "I may be small, but I'm awesome".

It is still readable even if the order is shuffled.

Changing even one character is fine.

Ge Qiaoqiao said, "The interview was quite boring. I thought it would be very interesting. By the way, President, one of the questions on your list of scholarship reward questions is about lidar. If you publish in a D-level journal, you get 10,000 yuan."

Zhai Da gave an affirmative answer: "Of course, no deception, but I remember that part was about 'LiDAR and rapid road obstacle recognition,' so pay attention to the specific sub-fields."

Ge Qiaoqiao thought to herself: Can you really make money this way?
Category D journals are basically the lowest tier for paper publication, or the second lowest tier, second only to low-quality journals and paid publications.
Admittedly, for ordinary people, it is at least only after completing a graduate program that they have the opportunity to come into contact with it.

But for members of "π", it's not actually that difficult, or rather, the probability is quite high.

Everyone vaguely sensed that each member could find a few things on the list that matched their own field.

For example, the one being discussed here belongs to the field of applied physics → optoelectronics technology → lidar.

"Actually, this isn't my area of ​​expertise, but I'd still be willing to earn 10,000 yuan for a paper."

Completely outperforms all scholarships
Zhai Da thought to himself, "This is my purpose: to lead you to where you need to be."

He doesn't need to set up a complicated evaluation system to review the progress of "π" members; he can rely on the existing system.

He doesn't have that much time, and he couldn't possibly know that much.

Papers are a very good indicator, and different levels of journals and peers will help him review them.

What a genius idea.

Zhai Da laughed and said, "Then I look forward to your masterpiece, senior. Remember, 10,000 yuan is just the starting point for D-level, and the maximum is 100,000 yuan."

Ge Qiaoqiao said, "I'm very curious to see who will be the first to receive the top scholarship."

"Oh, then it's most likely Miss 'Wooden Man'."

"Lu Wei? What achievements has she made?"

"She has already solved a mathematical conjecture and is currently in the paper preparation stage. You know, any named mathematical conjecture is a big deal; the mathematics community might only see it a few times a year, and mathematics journals are generally quite exclusive."

Ge Qiaoqiao's mouth dropped open, and after a long while she murmured, "Are all the members of 'π' really geniuses? It's making me a little insecure."

Zhai Da patted his senior's shoulder, but it didn't feel quite right; he should have patted her head instead. "Trust me, you too."

Although Zhai Da often emphasizes this point in "π", some people do not yet have much of a real understanding of it.

However, as everyone gradually achieves success, this perception will be reinforced, thereby fostering a greater sense of belonging and cohesion.

Ge Qiaoqiao pouted: "Want to eat together? How about some fries at the Misty Tavern?"

Zhai Da waved his hand: "No, I'm not a senior in my final year of undergraduate studies, I have a lot of things to do, bye!"

After saying goodbye to Ge Qiaoqiao, Zhai Da returned to Harbin Institute of Technology through the back gate and picked up Xiao Mutou, who had just finished class, at Zhengxin Building.

Lu Wei stood quietly at the door, holding a book in one hand, her long hair styled in a bun that seemed to glow in the sunlight.

As the weather warms up, thick down jackets are no longer needed. Casual hoodies look both warm and stylish. The lovely person's face is full of focus, and no matter how many people pass by, they never raise their eyes once.

When a pair of feet came into view, Lu Wei looked up and threw herself into Zhai Da's arms.

"Hey~ no! A hug is fine, but we're doing this in public."

"Practice makes perfect."

This girl has become very aggressive after she got the official manual.

The key point is that he also had a blank expression, which made him seem very aggressive.

The two didn't drive, or rather, their Panamera had been in rather unusual condition lately, and walked together to the main building of Harbin Institute of Technology.

They knocked on the principal's office door.
