Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

After dinner with Li Yulin, Bao Zixuan said to his mother: "Tomorrow there will be a very meaningful product. Do you want to go and see the miracle of modern industrial production? You can always see it at home and in the store." It’s so boring.”

Li Yulin was worried that going would make her son appear immature in front of the workers, but after hearing that he could appreciate the miracles of modern industry, he also wanted to see how the things his son talked about were produced.

So the mother and son drove towards the Kowloon factory as soon as they had breakfast the next day. Today Li Yulin specially put on the clothes that Bao Zixuan bought before she left last time. At this time, she saw that Li Yulin had a ladylike appearance. Lady style.

Bao Zixuan: "Mommy, you should have worn it like this a long time ago. Only when you wear this piece of clothing can its value be reflected."

Li Yulin: "How can I work in the store if I wear this every day, but it's okay to wear it occasionally."

While the mother and son were chatting in the car, all the personnel in the Heiyun Factory were already in place, waiting for Bao Zixuan to arrive. After all, this was the first Walkman to come off the assembly line, and he, the boss, had to screw in the last one for it himself. Screws.

After arriving at the factory, Li Yulin didn't know what to say when she looked at the No. 0 work license her son had prepared for her. Heiyun has already implemented a work license system, but there are basically no work licenses for the top 20, only Bao Zixuan's. No. 1 work badge, and Li Yulin’s No. 0 work badge. To get the top 20 work licenses, you must have served in Heiyun for more than 10 years and made outstanding contributions.

Li Yulin was shocked when she looked at the largest factory building in the whole of Xiangjiang and could not see the end of it. Normally, He Mingcheng would just talk about how good his son's company was and how profitable it was. He also heard from Xiangjiang citizens what Heiyun Company was doing today and tomorrow. What's the matter? I didn't expect my son to have made such great achievements without saying a word. It seems that he is born with business genes.

Bao Zixuan came to the largest workshop, which was the assembly workshop, and saw that Furujo Jiro was discussing the precautions for starting the machine with various departments, and engineers from the United States had been assigned to the workshop to guide the work. Seeing Bao Zixuan coming, Furujo Jiro reported: "Your Excellency, President, all preparations have been completed. The first batch of 300 titanium alloy Walkmans are ready to be produced at any time."

Bao Zixuan had considered this issue when it was producing its Walkman. In its previous life, it had seen many limited editions! He bought 100 kilograms of titanium alloy on the black market, just to produce the first batch of 300 limited edition Walkmans. Except for the parts that cannot be made of metal, the entire Walkman is made of titanium alloy, and only this batch will be produced. This model of machine will not produce a titanium alloy version in the future. It also produces 3,000 aluminum alloy Walkmans at the same time, with 3 models of 1,000 units each.

The titanium alloy version is priced at 3 prices and the shell is priced at 14 Hong Kong dollars. This is a unified global selling price. Each dealer is offering a 25% discount, which means that each dealer is guaranteed to have a 25% profit. Except for limited editions, the cost price of each Walkman is between 58 and 58 yuan. As production capacity increases, costs may fall further.

Li Yulin only saw that with her son's order, all the machines were started, and the workers only had to fill the inlet with raw materials. Many parts were transferred to the processing center through the conveyor belt for assembly, and then passed through The conveyor belt was passed to the hands of the master workers for the last few simple fixings, followed by quality inspection and packaging. In about 5 minutes, all 300 Walkmans were produced. Bao Zixuan took out the first machine and symbolically screwed it on. Immediately after finishing the last screw, the quality inspector began to test the sound performance of the Walkman. After seeing the quality inspector stamp his name on the certificate, the audience cheered.

Bao Zixuan took the first machine that passed the quality inspection and said to everyone: "Our experiment was successful. Humanity's first fully automatic production line for small products was born in Heiyun Company. We must seize this opportunity and continue to innovate. In order to realize my long-cherished wish, which is to become the greatest company on the planet, let’s work together!”

After watching her son's passionate speech, Li Yulin's eyes were a little moist. It seemed that her son had really grown up. After Bao Zixuan came over, he said to everyone: "This is my mother. Without her, there would be no me, so I want to give her this first independently developed industrial product produced by Heiyun. You have no objections." Bar!"

At this time, the workers cheered again, and after Li Yulin's identity was exposed, everyone began to greet her. Especially after knowing that all Bao Zixuan's roommates were here, everyone started chatting skillfully. At this time, Li Yulin's fluent English shocked everyone, especially Bao Zixuan, who didn't know that his mother had returned such a hand. It seemed that she cared and understood him too little.

Li Yulin held the walkman in her hand that looked a bit like a work of art. After following the instructions taught by Bao Zixuan, soft music came from the headphones.

Everyone saw that the aluminum alloy version was all produced and passed the acceptance inspection. It was already noon. After everyone had a simple lunch in the canteen, Li Yulin saw the workers wearing uniforms and lining up in an orderly manner. Food is served, and it's all buffet style.

Looking at the rich menu of dishes in the canteen, it can be said that it is the richest among all factories in Xiangjiang. The lunch and dinner at Heiyun Canteen consists of 12 dishes. The daily meal standard for each person is 30 yuan. In this era, it is better for everyone to go to the restaurant to eat together for this price. Not only the local employees in Xiangjiang are satisfied, but also the people from The workers who came from RB were very satisfied. You don’t have to spend money to eat, you can eat whatever you want, but if anyone wastes it, I’m sorry the meal fee will be deducted from your salary.

Li Yulin: "Axuan, the food here is really good, it's the only one in Xiangjiang!"

Bao Zixuan: "Workers make money for us. If I can't even eat well, then why should I have the face to ask people to work hard for me? How much money can I eat?"

In the afternoon, all the Shuo material version of the Walkman passed the inspection, and everyone cheered happily! Bao Zixuan did not arrange for the workers to work overtime today, but instead all came to the canteen for a celebration banquet. Bao Zixuan drank a lot again tonight, and finally stopped because he was afraid that Li Yulin would worry him.

Joanna had just returned to the dormitory from the classroom and was ready to take a rest. At this time, I happened to see 3 people in the dormitory. The 4 people who wanted to go there to relax at night heard a knock on the door.

A girl with a small box in her hand stood at the door and asked: "Who is Miss Joanna?" Joanna came out and replied: "Hello, I am Joanna, what can I do?"

"Hello, Miss Joanna, I am an employee of Heiyun Company. Our boss asked me to give this to you. This is the product you designed. It has been produced in the factory in Xiangjiang. Your product is numbered 002 Titanium alloy limited edition. We only produced 100 units of this model. It will not be produced in the future. The boss said that he should have given you the one numbered 001. You deserved this honor, but the boss gave you the one numbered 001. I gave it to his mother, I hope you don’t mind.”

After taking the box, Joanna said: "Thank you, I don't mind, I'm very satisfied." At this time, Heiyun's staff turned around and left.

Everyone looked at the box in Joanna's hand curiously, so she had to open it and show it to everyone. I saw the special titanium alloy metallic luster, smooth lines, and a perfectly flawless body. It should not be an industrial product, but a work of art. The eyes of several girls shone when they saw the black cloud logo, product name, model, etc. on the back of the machine. The most important thing is that the number is 002, which has special significance. I plugged in my headphones, took out a tape, and got angry after listening to it. The sound quality is very accurate, and there is no loss of voice. It seems that Bao Zixuan will definitely make a fortune this time.

In Los Angeles, in the studio of MGM, the same Heiyun employee came to Brooke Shields and said, this is the product you endorse and has been produced at the Heiyun Xiangjiang factory. This is the titanium alloy limited edition No. 002. This is We only produced 100 units of each style, and the global price is 3. Your No. 001, but No. 001 was given to his mother by our boss, I hope you don't mind. Hearing that this boy who had only met him once handed him such a big endorsement contract, in his heart he was only slightly less important than his mother. In fact, this is what John Chambers intended for people to say.

Brooke Shields, who was extremely happy, had nothing to do when she got it. She had filmed this Walkman commercial and knew how to use it. He quickly relaxed while listening to the music. He didn't even hear the director's shout. Fortunately, the person next to him touched him before he reacted and took off his headphones. When everyone saw the Walkman in Brooke Shields' hand, they were all very surprised, because There is absolutely no such product on the market. When they heard that she was endorsing a product that was about to be launched, everyone was very interested in it. After all, you can relax when you are bored while filming, and the most important thing is that it takes up very little space.

This is also a somewhat special gift from Bao Zixuan. 40 years later, the titanium alloy version numbered 024 was sold for US$2.24 million, which shows everyone's love for this electronic product that created an era.
