Chapter 2111: Chapter 1933: Benefits "Alas!" Steve Jobs had a wry smile on his face. Imitation. The outside world would never know that he had been forced to this point. Apple had always been a pioneer, yet it had made him have the idea of imitation. It was really frustrating. It’s so difficult. Internal. External. Himself. No one is satisfied with the current Apple. Qingyuan Technology, with Epoch, has made a strong entry into the computer field. PCs, notebooks, tablets, each product has sold exceedingly well. It’s so infuriating. Founded for three years. No technology. No factory. Relying solely on technology integration to achieve such accomplishments made Steve Jobs feel a strong sense of crisis. The speed of change in the future world far exceeds the limits of his imagination. Global division of labor promotes technological development and also lowers entry barriers, indirectly leading to the rise of technology integrators. If this model extends to various fields... "God!" Holding his head. Sure enough. The future is full of uncertainty. Think about it. In the future, if a company wants to produce something, as long as the processes, parts, and materials are standardized, there’s no need for research and development technology—just do a good job with plan integration and marketing. Mobile phone. Computer. Furniture. Home Appliances. Even cars. The entry barriers for many industries are lowered. The era of large-scale customization is bound to come. This... forget it, let’s first survive the fierce market competition before thinking about anything else. Back to the main topic. Imitation. Or... originality? Ever since the first generation of Epoch, there have been peers imitating. As it turns out, it has worked well. The appearance of the first generation was indeed very good. Just a slight modification and it’s a pretty decent looking design. Lowering his head. Looking at the Epoch second-generation machine in his hand. Rose gold, curved frame, more aesthetically pleasing than the first generation. Even Apple’s design library couldn’t find anything better; some designs even overlapped. This is unavoidable. Mobile phone. So small, with limited operation space. Thickness. Frame. Length. Width. Camera position. All these aspects, even if you use exhaustive methods to design, it’s not hard to match the same design as the Epoch second-generation machine. But, the fact is, they were the first to come up with it; others can only be regarded as imitations. Very helpless. Very realistic. After a long time. Steve Jobs still shook his head. If Apple lost its innovation, would it still be Apple? What would be the point of coming back? Two paths, better to walk the difficult one; it feels right in the heart. ... Algeria. Desert. Wan Qing Mining--North Africa Industrial Park. "Phones are here!" In an instant. The living area buzzed with excitement. Although Algeria is not considered a Western country, it is only separated from Europe by a Mediterranean; practically at the doorstep. Inevitably influenced. "Finally here." "Haha." "I got it, it’s really beautiful." "The company is generous." "Thanks, Boss Tang!" "..." Now. With the opening of sales to Europe and the U.S., the company could transport them in large batches from domestic, otherwise, even if they were free for employees, it would still be illegal. Mainly because there were so many, nearly two thousand units. In hand. Each and every one of them broke into smiles because the company said the first-generation Epoch phone distributed before would have the three-year ownership restriction cut down directly to one year upon receiving the second-generation Epoch. In other words. Immediately. The previous work phone completely belongs to them. Happy. Working in such a company, even in the desert, makes one feel cheerful. The company’s benefits are impeccable, the lifestyle is no worse than domestic, and the treatment is much better than domestic. Security Building. Sign. Fingerprint. Receive. Chu Sheng, holding the phone, looked at it repeatedly, showing a hint of affection in his eyes. After waiting for over a month, if the company hadn’t issued them, he was ready to buy a few himself. Unexpectedly, the company was this generous. One person, one unit. One word. Wealthy! Out the door. Driving the car, Chu Sheng headed towards his residence. Not the bulletproof SUV from the security department, but an ordinary off-road vehicle provided by the company for the management here. As the deputy manager of the Security Department, he has this qualification. Looking out the window. Chu Sheng couldn’t help but sigh. A year ago. It was a vast desert, desolate and uninhabited. After a year’s effort, it has taken shape. Various factory building constructions are almost complete, and the planned highway has been fully built. Simultaneously. The oasis has become lush everywhere. If you don’t drive out far, you wouldn’t think it’s in a desert. It’s also because it’s reached the equipment installation stage that he has to travel to Algiers four times a month. Escort the equipment. One trip takes four days. Back and forth, twenty days are gone, quite fulfilling. Unfortunately. The construction of the Sahara Desert railway in Algeria, funded by Myanmar, has just started. It will take at least two more years before trains can run. Otherwise, equipment transportation would be much more convenient without the need for escort. ... Likewise. Sky Eye Group. Comet Group. Sheng Tang Group. Microcrystalline Technology. Hummingbird Logistics. ... Almost all enterprises under Tang Qing have distributed mobile phone benefits, one for each person, for free? No, major companies purchased them from Qingyuan Technology, going through the normal financial process. However. The payment cycle is a bit long. Those with money paid directly in cash, like Microcrystalline Technology and Comet Group, promptly paid in full. As for those with tight funds, they can start using it now and pay later when they have money. About this. Qingyuan Technology naturally had no objection. The same boss. All are brothers. A small matter. Everyone often collaborates; Sky Eye is Qingyuan Technology’s butler, Comet Group is the advertising platform, Zhongyu Special Guard manages company security, Sheng Tang provides the company’s uniforms. Hummingbird is the company’s only logistics provider. After all. All are closely collaborative relations. At the first joint annual meeting, Qingyuan Technology was almost an extra, but now, after a few years, it has become the largest enterprise under Tang Qing. A sense of pride rises spontaneously. ... Two days later. Hai Province. An abandoned beach. "Tang Tang, this place isn’t bad, is it?" Pointing to the scenery in front of them, Tang Kai said with a smile, "It’s just three kilometers from my shipyard, with deep waters, very suitable as your underwater equipment testing base." Here. You can see his shipyard from afar. Since it only builds small-tonnage ships, neither the factory building nor other equipment requires high demands. Until now, only the final decoration remains. Knowing that Tang Qing intends to set up an underwater equipment testing base. Volunteered. Suggested this location. Close by. Easy to look after. Otherwise. A lonely shipyard felt a bit isolated. "Not bad." Tang Qing nodded with satisfaction. The testing base is primarily for testing some projects of Qingyuan Technology like underwater sightseeing submarines. The testing base should naturally be built by the sea, with fewer people being better. Airplane testing is in Xin Province. Moreover. Other comparative environments are needed. In total, the number of testing bases in the future won’t be less than ten, and all of them are large-scale. After getting used to the vast training area, small doesn’t appeal anymore.
