Chapter 828 Daily Life
"what are you busy with?"
At home, Wei Lan saw Wang Yan tinkering with something he couldn't understand, which seemed to be drawing software, and couldn't help asking curiously.
"Designing a house. This is not about communicating with the designers of the Ninth Bureau about the architectural design of our region recently. I simply taught myself some things in this area to facilitate better communication. Didn't I tell you where we live before? It’s all done, I just want to practice and design it myself.”
"It's only been half a month, right? You've already learned it?" Wei Lan was surprised, but then she felt accustomed to it, and then asked curiously, "Aren't there any renderings? Just like the developers?"
"Yes, isn't it? Let's see what happens."
Wang Yan did some operations, and the 3D rendering was displayed on the computer screen.
It was a three-and-a-half-story building with green tiles and white walls. The first floor was underground, and the second and third floors were staggered. There was a car room and a terrace. There were small yards in the front and back, a swing pavilion, and renderings. flowers and plants.
"It occupies an area of 300 square meters, and the apartment has an area of about 560 square meters. There are three rooms with independent bathrooms and dressing rooms. One upstairs is for the two of us, and the other two are for the children downstairs. The others are some functional rooms, study rooms, Kitchen, dining room, etc..."
Listening to Wang Yan's story, Wei Lan combined the location of the house she knew and thought about what kind of scene it was.
Their house is on the north bank of the Liugu River. According to the previously agreed plan, Longteng Group will spend a sum of money to repair the Liugu River and make appropriate changes to make it more beautiful. Their home is right by the Liugu River. Although it is not a high-rise building, there are no taller buildings in front of it. You can see the river and the sea. It is a beautiful scenery in spring, summer and autumn, but not in winter because the water will freeze in winter. , the flowers will wither.
"Don't tell me, it's really good." Wei Lan praised her growing belly, "I didn't expect that you would be able to look good after just studying for a few days. I just don't understand, it's just you How can I get into a college with this IQ?”
"Is it fate? I didn't like studying before. I haven't even read a few pages of the book. It's strange that I can get into a good university."
Wang Yan shook his head and smiled. He couldn't remember what dreams he had as a young man running under the sunset, but it was nothing more than living in a mansion, driving a luxury car, sleeping with a beautiful woman, and living in a drunken dream all day long. He has realized all of these before, and there will always be absurdities and evils that cannot be written about. His dreams have become reality. The child who ran barefoot on the loess land has become a big boss with hundreds of billions of debts.
He didn't say much and turned to ask about serious matters, "How is the negotiation with the Chinese medicine company going?"
"We have almost contacted you. I told you once before. It is called Changsheng Pharmaceutical. It is a listed company in Jilin Province with a market value of about 2.4 billion. The traditional Chinese medicine business accounts for 80%. It is also involved in the real estate business and has developed several real estate, as well as some low-end manufacturing factories.
I can't hold on any longer, and I have a debt of one billion. Better companies don't sell it, but this one is pretty good. It has a laboratory and cooperative pesticide farmers. Although its main business scope is still in the Northeast, it also has cooperative plantations in other regions. We will bear the debt and acquire their equity according to the market price. We are currently investigating and auditing it. If there are no problems, we will acquire it and delist it. "
Wei Lan said it very easily. Nowadays, all the money he handles is measured in hundreds of millions, and he is still operating with debts. He will still be in debts of hundreds of billions. He has already become numb.
"Okay, please pay more attention, try to resolve this matter within two months, and hurry up to cultivate our own drug farmers. It doesn't feel good to have your life in the hands of others."
Wang Yan replied with a smile and continued to devote himself to the design. He wanted to build three houses, one for themselves and one for their parents...
It is imperative to acquire traditional Chinese medicine planting companies, because their mainstay is Dali Pills, which are made from a large number of Chinese herbal medicines. Chinese herbal medicines in the upper reaches of the industrial chain are the lifeblood. The name "China Longteng Group" is awesome, and its products are even better, but that doesn't stop others from treating an industry like theirs that is expensive and has a huge demand for raw materials like a pig.
The danger of market economic activities is that it can be a buyer's market, or it can be manipulated to become a seller's market. The Chinese herbal medicine market itself is not bad, or to put it another way, the industries related to the pharmaceutical industry are not bad either. The quality of the market environment has a certain impact on it, but it is not that huge. People will always get sick, always have to go to the hospital, and always have to take medicine. This is a relatively stable and profitable industry.
Of course, for technical industries such as medical devices, it may not be so good. After all, the price of brackets has increased from more than 100,000 yuan to a few hundred yuan. Small-scale companies cannot support it, but large companies are still popular because of their deeper accumulation and wider patent moat. As for the medical representatives at the bottom, life is not as easy as before, so what does it matter?
In fact, in the past period of time, the bulk purchase price of Longteng Health Care's Chinese herbal medicine has been slowly increasing, which has led to the cost of Dali Pills also increasing. After years of research, the cost of mass-produced Dali Pills has been reduced to less than 4,000 yuan, just over 3,000 yuan. However, recent statistics on production costs have exceeded 4,000. Needless to say, this is treating Wang as a leek.
Of course, Wang Yan didn't believe in any excuses. As long as he didn't hear about the large-scale production reduction of medicinal materials, there was no doubt that the increased prices were aimed at him. Seeing that he makes so much money, and the money scene is so beautiful, but he can't get involved, many people will be unhappy.
The company that acquired Chinese herbal medicines, although it is not possible to fully master so many herbs, can certainly solve some of the problems. At that time, whether it is signing a contract with the previous herbal farmers or taking out his own complete plan to train new herbal farmers, it will be easy. If he fully masters the Chinese herbal medicines used, then his cost can even be reduced to less than 3,500.
So even if there is no targeting, he will still choose to acquire a pharmaceutical company that mainly grows Chinese herbal medicines. This is a normal development route. Anyone with a normal mind will choose this. Controlling the upstream and downstream is the norm. If you can acquire, acquire. If you can't acquire, find a way to buy shares, and then study the holding. In short, you have to hold it in your hands.
To a certain extent, this is the same as the state-owned operation, which is often called the neck. What others have is theirs, and what you have is yours.
Mr. Wang is purely a big picture. He does not touch the downstream industry. All smart home products are OEMed by factories and produced according to the scheduled orders. If he wants to open a factory to produce and manufacture, he can just spend money to acquire the factory and install a production line. It is not difficult at all. It's just that he did it himself, not only did he do it, but he also took on OEM. With his excellent quality and advanced production technology, it is easy to squeeze out his peers.
In fact, he has killed many of his peers just by selling smart home products. Although he sells them at a high price, there are actually many brands that sell more expensively than him. In the past, everyone was about the same, but now the contrast is obvious. It is very difficult for peers with high prices to compete with him, regardless of whether they are at home or abroad.
On the contrary, Longteng's reputation abroad is even greater. Because this Chinese company dared to discriminate against them. There was a lot of noise before, and there were diplomatic greetings, but the result did not change. When international friends visited Longteng's official website, the price was three times that in China, and it was still hanging there, without any change.
The launch conference of Zhixiang 2nd Generation and smart home this time still attracted many international friends, otherwise there would not be a considerable number of foreign orders.
There are many people who are the ultimate fans of technology products, and they are very happy to enjoy the convenience of technology. In particular, there are quite a few people who like to DIY and fully enjoy the fun of using their brains and hands.
In today's world, when it comes to artificial intelligence technology, Longteng is the undisputed number one in the market, not including various laboratories. It is more advanced than the various products that are arguing about. This is not what Longteng said, but authoritative data released by an organization for special evaluation. It is tested by the performance of Zhixiang Generation 1 and Yiyi.
Speaking of Yiyi, after continuous iterations, this translation software is now quite powerful. Although there is no interaction, the convenience is not comparable to other old translation software.
The function of translation software is of course translation, and other functions are useless. Yiyi can translate most of the languages in the world, as well as dialects, and it is not only accurate but also faithful and elegant. It can recognize images, voice, and can translate papers and various manuscripts throughout the text, with almost no errors.
In addition, it can also translate with the chat. As long as you set the language that needs to be translated to each other, just put the phone there, and the two parties in the conversation can naturally translate each other through the phone without any additional operation. If necessary, it can also be used to answer calls. As long as you agree to read the content of the call, you can translate the call in real time, and the content will be displayed on the phone. If you want to reply, you just need to speak your native language.
Another function is to obtain the permissions of the computer and mobile phone. When browsing the web, you can directly translate the text that needs to be translated, and the content will be displayed below the selected text.
As far as the translation function is concerned, Yiyi has almost done the best. Up to now, Yiyi has come from behind and has occupied a considerable part of the market, especially college students use it the most. After all, they need to consult literature, most of which are in English, or some people in some companies use it more.
This is mainly due to the previous wave of popularity of translating dialects. It became popular for a while. At that time, it was fun. Later, people in need found it useful and conveyed a good reputation.
But to be honest, Yiyi can't make much money. The development team is Zhang Xu and five or six people working. The only two ways to make money are advertising, app application opening screen advertising, and the advertising business of its own Zhixiang and smart home. From left hand to right hand, internal income supports staff and project expenses.
The other is free conversation. The function of making calls requires membership, which is not expensive, only 9.9 yuan a month. There are currently 600,000 paying users, and a considerable number of them are foreigners.
Relying on these two profitable businesses, the development and maintenance of Yiyi are supplied, the normal operation of the project is guaranteed, and the generous bonuses of the project team are guaranteed. This is the easiest position in Longteng. It earns a lot, and the work is free. There are 30 days a month. In addition to the normal weekends, there are five or six extra days off. It is very comfortable.
This is also because Wang Yan has no profit requirements for Yiyi, otherwise just thinking about how to make money would make them bald. Yes, everyone knows that this kind of software does not have much room for making money, but the leaders are demanding it. What else can they do except silently scold the leaders...
Of course, they didn't slack off either. Although the overall atmosphere of the company was relaxed, there was still a lot of work to be done. After all, it is a high-tech enterprise, and technology is king. Their level cannot remain stagnant, otherwise there will be no other big boss like Wang Yan. So I still keep learning and exchanging technology.
This is something Wang Yan is happy to see. Even when nothing happens, he will find some technical documents and send them to all departments so that they can understand them. Within the entire company, the atmosphere of technical learning and communication is still very strong.
Everyone is making progress and busy with ease...
Near the West Lake in Lin'an, a young man was wearing olive green half-sleeves, khaki nine-point casual sports pants, a pair of black sneakers, a small bag on his chest, and a silver metal toolbox, walking in the alley. On the stone road, we stopped in front of a two-story old-fashioned house.
The young man took out his mobile phone and carefully checked the road number with blue background and white letters on the wall. After confirming that it was correct, he walked in through the open door.
"Hello, is there anyone? Longteng Intelligent."
As soon as he finished speaking, a man and a woman came out from the corner. The young man looked at them and introduced: "We talked on the phone before. I am Zhang Jianyu, the intelligent solution consultant of Longteng Intelligence. Is this Mr. Liu?"
The man nodded, came over to shake hands and said, "Liu Yang."
Zhang Jianyu shook hands with him, looked at the space in the room and said, "The communication on the phone was not clear. Looking at your order, you have ordered two of our Longteng first-tier smart solutions?"
"Yes, we don't understand smart homes, but this house is a bit bigger. I think according to the layout of the two bedrooms and one living room in your promotional video, it should be enough for us to buy two sets, right?"
What a simple reason for consumption. Zhang Jianyu smiled and said: "It's not that calculated. You don't need so many. The plan includes smart speakers and home cloud platforms, which are many. You only need one smart speaker. You can Just buy a few more speakers for sound collection. You don’t need two for the home cloud platform, just buy the one with the highest configuration.”
After giving a rough explanation, he opened the tool box and said, "I'll take a look at it first and plan what you need. If there's any extra, I'll return it to you right now. Have you hired a designer to decorate your house?"
"found."
"Is the design finished?"
"not yet."
"Then tomorrow, a decoration consultant will come from our company. He will communicate with the designer you are looking for on this issue. He will also come to communicate with the master when doing water and electricity work. He can come over if necessary later."
Liu Yang was surprised: "How do you provide such comprehensive services?"
"It's only allowed in Lin'an and within 100 kilometers of Lin'an, and each person adds 500. If it exceeds 100 kilometers, the money will be calculated according to the distance. Mainly because we have few people in charge of this area, and many problems can be solved online. Yes, it’s rare to see someone as wealthy as you.”
"Really? I see that your number of pre-orders is over three thousand. Is that number false?"
"Really, but more than 600 of them were ordered by foreign users. If you want us to go over and guide the installation, it would be very expensive. Most of the rest are normal building layouts, nothing more than two rooms, The difference between the three-bedroom apartments is only a few dozen, which is similar to yours. It is considered a big house like a villa. "
Seeing Zhang Jianyu's honest answers and his easy-to-talk manner, the young couple couldn't help but start to gossip. After all, Long Teng didn't have much contact with outsiders, especially unrelated consumers like them.
"Hey, isn't Longteng a state-owned enterprise? I heard that your boss has a very tough relationship. Is this true?"
Zhang Jianyu thought about the company's development history and shook his head: "It must be fake. When our big boss started his business, the company was rented in the suburbs, and later moved to the city center. But he must be very capable. I heard that the boss of Qiangshen Pills researched it himself. He knows Chinese medicine. He asked our colleagues to go to the hospital to see a doctor, but he was actually diagnosed with the disease.
And the technology is very high. For example, in our smart home project team, all the smart modules are written by the big boss himself. You may not understand that it is very high, as high as Mount Everest.
As for how it became a state-owned enterprise, how can we working people know? But I think it’s also because of the health pills, which are so profitable and important. The state may have given them for protection, or it may have been given by our boss himself, using the tiger’s skin as a banner. Otherwise, such a good thing will not be available until now. I still don’t know what will happen in the end. "
"That's true." The woman nodded in approval, then asked, "I read online that your company's benefits are super good. Is that true?"
"It's true. Look at my clothes and shoes. They are all issued by the company, including clothes for all seasons. Snacks in the company are also standard, and food, drink, housing and transportation are subsidized, and the subsidy standards are not low. . The work is also relaxed. I came to your house today just because I woke up. Uh... I'm sorry, this is the time I made a special appointment.
The main reason is that we have more holidays so that we can rest after completing the tasks. I work in the intelligent project team developing sweeping robots, and I was originally on vacation. However, there are a lot of people needed to use them right now. Before they could be hired, I was asked to come over and fill up the staff. But don’t worry, I’m absolutely professional. The house my family bought a while ago is being renovated. Our manager applied to the boss and let us get the company’s products at a discount. I went home and decorated them a while ago. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be allowed to make up the numbers. "
Zhang Jianyu explained and quickly changed the subject, "Our company has good welfare, but there are actually a lot of things to do. I don't know if you know it, but our company has a party branch, and the branch secretaries are all transferred from central ministries and commissions. Although there is no administrative level, the actual significance is definitely not bad.
So there are many party activities in our company, such as respecting the elderly and helping the young, visiting veterans, condoling advanced comrades, learning spirits, and studying at the memorial halls and ruins of martyrs. I even heard recently that it seems that they are organizing a re-walk of the Long March. Our big boss is an iron fist, and he has to go when he says he will go, and he has to be the first to lead the team. I don't know if this is really the case. To be honest We are all looking forward to it. With more learning, our awareness has also improved. And according to the style of our company, it must be paid and subsidized.
In addition, our company is very strict in assessing party members. It is definitely not like universities or other companies that deal with things. Our company has the authority to expel employees from the party and the authority to recommend the expulsion of applicants from the party. That is not a joke. Follow the file. "
The man and woman obviously didn't care about the professionalism. The company is so awesome. Even if it is unprofessional, it must find a way to solve the problem. Anyway, except for the high price of things, there is no negative news about Longteng.
Especially Longteng is very high-profile. It implements two pricing standards for strengthening pills at home and abroad, with obvious differences. Other products are also more or less floating. Anyway, the same things are more expensive abroad than at home. Even Yiyi members are sold at five dollars abroad. This is really high-end. The attitude of big companies looking down on everything is very clear. Buy it if you want, use it if you want.
There are still quite a few people who like Longteng's conduct. Of course, most of them can't support it.
Zhang Jianyu loves to share, and there is nothing wrong with what he shares. After all, he is proud to work in Longteng. This company is hard to find even with a lantern. It is quite difficult for ordinary people to get in now. It used to be jokingly called the Internet Nursing Home. Now, the people who laughed at it before were so happy, and now they are crying so sadly.
This satisfied the curiosity of Liu Yang, a wealthy couple, about Longteng. They will have something to talk about when they chat with their friends later...
Wang Yan certainly didn't know that his employees were praising the company outside. He continued his struggle in the real world, dealing with various problems of his subordinates, occasionally sorting out company affairs, making structural adjustments, and constantly communicating with Suizhong.
His actions are efficient, Longteng's actions are efficient, the country's actions are efficient, and the local government's actions are efficient. The collision of the two groups of people brought about a big difference in Suizhong.
Longteng's land has been occupied, including the towns mentioned above, totaling more than 1,200 square kilometers of land, and 500 square kilometers of open space have been reserved in the surrounding areas to facilitate Longteng's future expansion. This is more than half of Suizhong's land. Of course, this much land is not only Suizhong County, but also a large part belongs to Xingcheng.
The reason why so much land area is needed is that it has tripled compared to the 500 or 600 square kilometers mentioned in the earliest land reclamation. The main reason is the problem of building form.
Land reclamation is more precious than the buildings above, so naturally most buildings are high-rise. But now it is on land. Wang Yan set the tone before, and the employee housing is 200 square meters per person. Compared with the buildings that only occupy a few hundred square meters, it can accommodate dozens of families, so of course a larger land area is needed.
Moreover, the office building this time, or other facilities such as shopping malls, hotels, and hospitals, will not be very high buildings. Because Wang Yan decided to adopt the previous ancient building style, the area required is naturally larger.
The land is circled, and the list of people to be relocated is also determined. Wang Yan had explained before that Longteng would pay for the construction of houses, whether it was a building or a new countryside.
This was not a multiple choice question. The governments of Suizhong and Xingcheng, which inexplicably welcomed Longteng to settle down, decisively chose the houses built in the new countryside. How could a building be better than a small villa?
As for the location of the resettlement houses, it was a problem that needed no further explanation. It must be close to the area of Longteng. After all, Longteng will be the absolute center in the future. Not to mention the county town, even the center of Huludao City is not as good as Longteng District. The plans have come out, including shopping malls, hospitals, hotels, fire protection, public security, government, airport, subway, etc. In particular, Wang Yan once said that he would study smart cities in Longteng District, and the construction of the general district this time would be initially deployed.
The governments of the two places have made up their minds that the county town will develop towards Longteng in the future. The closer it is, the greater the benefits. Apart from anything else, Longteng is rich and powerful. It should be okay to build a subway to facilitate the people's travel, right? This is such a good thing.
On the other hand, Longteng District is located in a large rural area, more than ten kilometers away from Suizhong County and fifty kilometers away from Xingcheng. The large area in the middle is all villages and farmland. Compared with Longteng District, which may be the most developed and technologically advanced in the country, the gap is too obvious and the gap is too big, which is not good.
So in line with Longteng's architectural style, a piece of nearby land is covered with small villas, and Longteng, which is rich and powerful, is willing to invest in the construction of shopping malls, hospitals and other supporting facilities. This place is the Jiangnan of the North. It is easy to imagine that there will be a lot of money to be made from tourism in the future.
No matter how they do it, the central idea of the two governments is to hold on to Longteng's thighs and pass on the benefits of Longteng's employees to the local people. That is their greatest political achievement.
And this process is not far away. At present, many vacant lands have begun construction. Several coastal fishing companies have been acquired and closed by Longteng, and landscaping work has been carried out. The resettlement houses for the relocated people have been marked out, and designers have discussed with them from house to house what kind of houses they want in the future.
Although it is a new countryside, Wang Yan will not fool the people. He does not deny that unity is a kind of beauty, but there is no doubt that there is no soul of architecture. He instructed that it should not be standardized, but that the architecture should be allowed to flourish, and the beauty of architectural art should be shown as much as possible while considering the harmonious beauty. Let's put it this way, in the past two years, most construction companies in the country have to make a living with Longteng.
That is not one or two companies, but it involves more than 120,000 people and more than 30,000 households. The housing and cash compensation budgets for relocation have reached more than 100 billion yuan in total, and Suizhong will have to make money for decades.
Of course, this is because Wang Yan took on so much responsibility. If the local government had funded the land and given it to Longteng for free, it would definitely not have reached this amount.
But Wang Yan didn't care. Anyway, if the country dared to lend money, he dared to spend it. In fact, the initial budget for the construction of the total area was only more than 500 billion yuan, and after the planning, it was heading for 1 trillion yuan.
The country was very happy, very happy. Because there are health-enhancing pills there, even if it is 1 trillion yuan, it can be paid back as long as it develops for four or five years. Even if Wang Yan's management is a mess and the Longteng District is a mess, the 1 trillion yuan is not wasted. This is the money earned from the production and operation of the enterprise, and it will be spent.
Moreover, Wang Yan showed a strong sense of responsibility. Compared with those rich people who have all kinds of yachts, airplanes, and transfer assets, it is really a world of difference. Compared with ordinary people, Wang Yan and his wife's consumption is definitely luxurious, but compared with rich people, it can even be called shabby. The two of them receive hundreds of thousands of wages from the company every month, and spending tens of thousands of yuan a month is about the same. Wei Lan spent more, buying all kinds of things, while Wang Yan didn't spend much. Apart from refueling, buying groceries, and transferring money to his parents' cards, he spent almost nothing.
Wang Yan really didn't spend anything. In the real world, he cooked his own meals, didn't smoke, and rarely drank, so he spent less. Wei Lan would buy things for him, for both parents, and for the unborn child.
In the past few months, Wei Lan was still very extravagant. She bought a lot of bags and watches. It was understandable that a poor man suddenly became rich. Later, the busier he was at work and the more money he had, he got rid of his low-level hobbies and began to follow Wang Yan to the stars and the sea...
After the autumn harvest, Suizhong will become a large construction site. Because it freezes in November, there is not much time for construction after the autumn harvest, so there are fewer people this year. There are construction companies that have subcontracted work and come to find people who have been relocated to work. There are probably tens of thousands of people, digging pits and transporting construction materials.
By the beginning of next spring, that will be the real speed of infrastructure construction, with an estimated construction period of eight years. But it should be faster. Residential buildings are easy to build. The only difficult ones are office parks, but they are not very tall skyscrapers. There is indeed a certain degree of construction difficulty, but it is not as great as imagined. Wang Yan still has previous construction experience...
It was in such a busy time that a month passed unknowingly, and the news from his father always came on time.
"Liu Laosan from "Romance of the Three Kingdoms": I want to eat!"
What a familiar task, Wang Yan raised his eyebrows slightly. How long has it been since he was an emperor?
He didn't remember, or didn't calculate seriously, anyway, it must have been a hundred years.
Although he had read the book, Wang Yan still found the classic TV series and watched it again, revisiting the story.
"Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is mainly about... Please give a hundred...
