Reborn 80s

Chapter 401 The Screws of Society
After breakfast, Chen Huaiqing went directly to continue the meeting. As for Liu Xinran's computer shop...

He is not going to say that we should watch it now, the timing is not yet ripe.Since Liu Xinran wants to start a business, let her try it first to see the results.

If it is this piece of material, then it is natural that more resources should be invested in support, so just invest.

If not...

It should be possible, after all, Liu Xinran was admitted to the only top university in China by himself.

Chen Huaiqing didn't mean to let go completely, he still gave Liu Xinran some pointers.

For Liu Xinran to be a computer brand, he has to develop his own computer motherboard.

Anyway, you have to have your own core technology.

It is also a skill to combine the parts on the market.

After being combined, it is a great skill to be able to fully exert the performance of these parts.

Liu Xinran also agreed with this.

When she was collecting information on computer vendors in the United States, she noticed several companies. In the computer field, IBM must be the well-deserved king.

IBM is indeed very powerful.

But it's not something she can think about now, it's better to be more down-to-earth.

In addition to IBM, three computer companies such as Apple, Hewlett-Packard, and Compaq are also extremely powerful.

Not to mention, Apple has launched several very innovative computer products.

At this time, HP was mainly in the printer business.

On the contrary, Liu Xinran is very interested in Compaq, because this company produces compatible machines.

A compatible machine, to put it bluntly, is an assembly machine.

Compaq started out producing IBM compatible computers.

Most of the components of IBM's computers are not produced by IBM itself, but purchased from outside.

If IBM can purchase, then naturally Compaq can too.

From its establishment in 1982, by 1984, its revenue reached US$1.112 million, in 1985 it reached US$3.29 million, in 1986 it reached US$5.039 million, and its sales of personal computers reached 50 units.

In 1987, the millionth personal computer was sold.

In the last year, launched Compaq notebook, also launched a server.

Liu Xinran really wanted to replicate the achievements of Compaq Computer in Huaguo.

After all, when Compaq was first established, the three founders only invested $1000 each!

That adds up to $3000!

However, it seems that there is no small difficulty in Huaguo to copy the route of Compaq Computer.

First of all, Huaguo does not have a complete computer industry chain.

Now Liu Xinran and the others are getting many parts imported from abroad.

The price of a computer assembled with imported components naturally becomes quite expensive.

Liu Xinran imported parts from Xiangjiang through the relationship invested by Meta.

This is undoubtedly not a long-term solution.

From the perspective of cost reduction, it is necessary to use domestic components as much as possible.

But now there is no such thing in China!

The first thing Liu Xinran thought of was self-research.

After staying by Chen Huaiqing's side for so many years, Liu Xinran is still very familiar with the Mota Group, and knows how much the Mota Group attaches importance to technology research and development.

In Mota Group, technology is the first, sales is the second, and management is the third.

What is mentioned here is the position of man.

Other companies do it the other way around, with management first, sales second, and technology third.

Liu Xinran didn't go there today, just thinking about how to grow his computer company at home.

In the past, it seemed to be a very simple thing, just start a business!
But now that I think about it carefully, it seems that it is not that simple.

Chen Huaiqing is also offering advice and suggestions at this time, and the leader came to the Shuchuan delegation to express his appreciation for the construction of the Chengdu-Chongqing Economic Zone proposed by Shuchuan.

This is the first in China to propose the development of a cross-urban economic zone.

Shu Chuan proposed that after the completion of the construction of the Chengdu-Chongqing Expressway, a second expressway between Chengdu and Chongqing will be built in the next ten years.

The other is the railway.

It is necessary to strengthen the logistics transportation between Chengdu and Chongqing.

The construction of urban rail transit in Yuzhou was also brought up.

There were still some disputes about the construction of the light rail in Yuzhou after it was reported.

Yuzhou's economy is developing so well now, why doesn't it build a subway.

Yuzhou also has its own considerations for this, that is, the cost of building a subway in Yuzhou is too high.

Moreover, as a mountain city, the cost of building a subway is higher than that of a plain, and the technical difficulty is also greater.

Instead, it is more appropriate to build a light rail.

The transportation capacity of light rail is three times less than that of subway.

But it doesn't matter, fit is the most important thing.

Rongcheng is also planning to build a subway, but with the current level of economic development in Rongcheng, it is obviously impossible to build it.

So a pre-planning.

Chen Huaiqing has said on many occasions that cities should carry out advanced planning, such as Yuzhou and Rongcheng, and the transportation should be planned according to the scale of the urban population of 2000 million.

Everyone was a little scared by Chen Huaiqing's 2000 million urban population.

With so many people living in a city, how big is that city!

Now the most populous city in the world does not have so many people.

Could it be that Chen Huaiqing is playing yellow accents indiscriminately?

Shuchuan will focus on two tasks in the next ten years: improving the transportation network and improving education.

For transportation construction, the provincial finance and social funds are the main ones.

As for education, Shu Chuan is confident in it.

After all, someone may have said that 100 billion U.S. dollars will be invested in education in Shuchuan.

Naturally, the 100 billion US dollars does not mean that all of them will be taken out at once, but will be invested in batches.

First build the United University and Rongcheng University of Applied Technology.

Needless to say, United University has high hopes!
I hope that a world-class prestigious school can really be established.

Why not directly engage in Huaqing and Beijing University?
The two universities are too important in Huaguo at this time, and it is not suitable for any big moves.

Instead, it is the newly-built Union University, because everything is brand new, so it is easy to paint.

The leaders are looking forward to the performance of Union University in the future.

What makes everyone more interested is the technical education system that Shuchuan will build.

The country is aware of the development of vocational and technical education, and the establishment of vocational and technical high schools across the country is a good example.

Shuchuan is a province with a large labor force. It is also quite beneficial for Shuchuan to cultivate workers' professional skills and increase their income level.

Technical education in Yuzhou is pretty good.

Those who are currently studying in vocational high schools do not mean that only students with poor grades go to study.

Many of them have good academic performance, but limited by their family conditions, they cannot go to high school and enter university. If they go to vocational high school, they can start working earlier.

Of course, the vocational high school in Shuchuan is not called a vocational high school, but a technical high school, with the goal of cultivating technical talents.

There are also quite a lot of subjects, such as manufacturing, maintenance, and manual.

In school, you can take various vocational certificates.

In Shuchuan, the occupational certificate system is to be implemented. If you have a certificate, you can get a formal job. If you don't have a certificate, you can only work as a temporary worker.

What an industrial society needs is to operate like a production line, turning everyone into a screw of society.

The more sophisticated a society operates, the more efficient it will be.
