Province City.
Development Zone.
Qihe Town.
Dongtan.
After Qin Yugang finished a meeting in town, he stopped by here; this is thergest warehouse of Hummingbird Business Storage in the Province City. ording to the n, Qihe Town will soon be divided into the district and be a street.
Looking at the orderly construction site.
Qin Yugang recalled the conversation with Tang Qing during Chinese New Year.
"Tangtang, just that warehouse in the Development Zone, to ensure shipping speed, you need to hire at least six thousand people." At that time, Qin Yugang had mixed feelings about this number.
On one hand.
He hoped to create more jobs.
On the other hand.
This goes against the business goal of ’cost-saving’.
"Six thousand people? No need for so many."
"Then how many?"
"A little over a thousand will suffice. Six thousand people, that’s for one province. Uncle, if following your calction, wouldn’t my nationwide warehouses and logistics need about fifty to sixty thousand people? I’m not sure I can afford that."
"How could that be enough?"
"It’spletely enough; I will userge-scale automation equipment. For the provincial warehouse, a little over a thousand people is sufficient. I’m nning to control the number of official employees of domestic Hummingbird Business Storage between 150,000 and 200,000."
"Whether it’s for long-haul transportation or thest mile, most of the business will be outsourced to major logistics and courierpanies. We ourselves will not hire too many courier personnel."
"I’ve alreadymissioned someone to develop the automation solution; I’ve been involved and following up myself. By the time we purchase thend and build the factory building, this equipment should be almost ready to develop."
"How much will the equipment cost?"
"Estimating around ten billion RMB."
"..."
A little over a thousand people.
Can run this gigantic factory in front of him; Qin Yugang could only marvel at how technology changes the world. Although it created far fewer jobs, but with such a scale, it could beparable to ten Jingdong warehousesbined.
Relying solely on people.
Would indeed be troublesome.
...
February 20th.
United States.
Seattle.
A famous technological city, home to Amazon’s headquarters and Boeing’s assembly center, a main manufacturing center in the western, northern part of the United States.
Of course.
It’s also where Microcrystalline Technology’s headquarters is located.
City center.
Manlehui Exhibition Center.
Early in the morning.
Various major media in the United States gathered here.
With invitation letters, other experts and peers with various purposes also came, wanting to witness firsthand the second productunch event hosted by that magical Chinese person.
What was the first one?
Of course, it was Epoch.
Today,
thatunch event is truly defined as the start of smartphones, while Steve Jobs’... well... let’s call it a smartphone, can only be described as a ’curious’ artifact.
No choice.
The time between the twounch events was too short.
Too short for Tang Qing to be copying Steve Jobs’ Apple; he was already ahead of Jobs, and naturally, Jobs’ Apple was defined as a ’premature malformed child’.
Epoch.
Was the product that started the smartphone era.
"Zhou, is there a surprise today?"
"Yes."
"I’m looking forward to it."
"..."
"Mr. Zhou, are you free after theunch event? Let’s sit down somewhere."
"I’m afraid not today, maybe next time."
"..."
Zhou You, as the host, exchanged pleasantries with some industry leaders. Seeing these Westerners trying to get close, Zhou You felt proud, especially when he saw the boss of his previouspany, his mood was even more pleasant.
The ceiling.
Amon issue with Americanpanies.
It’s hard for Chinese to stand out.
Now.
Thepany has its own core technology, no need to look at these people’s faces. Seeing their envious expressions one by one, Zhou You felt satisfied internally but did not show it; just being happy inside is enough.
"Hello, Mr. Zhou."
At this moment.
A female Chinese journalist came up and smiled at Zhou You.
"Hello," Zhou You responded.
"I’m a journalist from Xinhua News Agency, Shen Bing. After theunch, could you give us an opportunity for an exclusive interview? I know you’re busy, but it won’t take long, just half an hour."
"Do you have an appointment?" Zhou You asked.
"We did, but yourpany hasn’t responded yet," Shen Bing nodded and said.
"Well... alright."
Domestic journalist.
Zhou You was, of course, happy to oblige.
"Thank you."
"You’re wee."
When the time arrived.
Amidst a piece of music.
Zhou You walked onto the stage.
With some words of gratitude.
He handed the stage over to Tang Qing; as seen in previous videos, Tang Qing’s body gradually formed from light points. Since the number of attendees wasn’t veryrge, Tang Qing used a 1:2 ratio.
"So big."
"If it’s not big enough, it’s unclear."
"Air projection has really been conquered."
"How on earth did they do it?"
"I really want to buy one right away."
"..."
After the buzz.
Tang Qing spoke.
"Thank you all foring to the productunch event of Microcrystalline Technology, and those watching the live broadcast. In half an hour, you will be d for your luck to be the first batch of witnesses."
These words.
Piqued everyone’s curiosity.
Looks like there is something new.
"Previously, I’ve used parts of holographic image functionality in some public ces, like what you’re seeing now, zooming in and out. And also, actually I’m speaking Chinese."
Upon hearing this.
"Ho."
A German person eximed, "It’s really Chinese; I noticed the speech speed sometimes fast, sometimes slow, turns out it’s the difference in the number of sybles, directional audio trantion, I’ve witnessed it."
"Impressive."
"No need to worry aboutnguage barriers inpany meetings anymore."
"..."
The scene instantly became lively, and so did the people watching the live broadcast. Since the live broadcast is global, majornguage countries’ real-time trantions were achieved based on their national IPV4 segments.
After a moment.
Tang Qing continued.
"This is not actually the technology of Microcrystalline Technology; Microcrystalline Technology only covers the optics part. The acoustics part is provided by QingYang Audio, and the simultaneous trantion is evolved from Xiao Xiao’s intelligent trantion."
"This is an era where cooperation is mainstream; no singlepany can fully master all technologies. Cooperation plus innovation has led to the integrated products we see now."
After speaking.
A device image appeared on the screen behind Tang Qing.
Everyone looked.
It was like those devices they hadn’t seen before hanging around, then it shed twice, showing a bar-shaped and a round device, and finally, the three devices were lined up in a row.
"These are Microcrystalline Technology’s three new products, Camera Projection Type, Bar Projection Type, and Fixed-point Projection Type. Each has a different application scenario, and they can also be used inbination."
"Their name is—Time."
Time.
The name is quite ordinary.
If there’s any meaning, it doesn’t fully match the functionality of holographic images, but Tang Qing didn’t think too much about it, as he suddenly remembered a phrase when naming it.
--- Don’t waste good times.
Therefore.
This name was chosen, and he even thought of the advertisement slogan.
Time.
Does not disappoint.
