Technological power starts with upgrading lenses

After discussing the space shuttle's engine and fuel route selection with Yan Hui for an hour, Zhang Qing rushed to Pangu Base after receiving the call.

The two of them sat down in a corner nearby.

"How is the finishing work going?" After a moment of silence, Kang Chi took the initiative to ask.

"Almost done, just waiting for you to decide on the candidate."

"Well... I just talked to Zhuoyuewen for a while..."

Kang Chi briefly talked about Zhuoyuewen's suggestion on issuing corporate bonds and asked: "What do you think about this?"

"Didn't they just recover more than 2 trillion yuan? Isn't this enough for you?"

"That's not the case. It will definitely be enough in the short term, but in the long run, it is probably not enough. In addition, I think this is indeed a model for ordinary people to participate in technological development and share the dividends of technological development."

Zhang Qing nodded, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "If you need financing in the future, this method is indeed worth a try, but I think we still need to add some prerequisites, such as setting up a limited purchase right for us Chinese people, and each person's subscription must also be limited by real name, and then think of some ways to avoid being monopolized by big capital..."

After listening to this, Kang Chi sighed. Sure enough, Zhang Qing still understood him, and the suggestions he made were all in his heart.

"In addition, I think the way to share the dividends of science and technology does not necessarily have to be financial policies." Zhang Qing quickly added, "We should use actual products and business models to let everyone feel the dividends of science and technology."

"Actual products?" Kang Chi immediately became interested, "For example?"

"You should know about the driverless taxis that suddenly became popular last year, but are now a bit tepid, right?"

"Of course I know."

As the technology of driverless driving gradually matures, the emergence of driverless taxis is almost inevitable.

Baidu's Pineapple Run, Tesla's Robotaxi plan, and Alphabet's Waymo are all more representative among them.

Last year, after Baidu's Pineapple Run was first put into trial operation in Jiangcheng, it immediately caused heated discussions across the country. Many outsiders even went to Jiangcheng to wait for the pilot to experience this new technology.

Baidu's stock price also rose sharply.

However, no one expected that Pineapple Run had only been in trial operation for less than ten days, and Jiangcheng was forced to stop the pilot project under the call of the masses.

Not only Jiangcheng, but also many other cities have pressed the synchronous pause button.

Then, Baidu's stock price plunged rapidly like a roller coaster.

As for the reason for the suspension, in addition to the immaturity of driverless technology itself, which has aggravated traffic pressure and trouble, the more critical reason is the contradiction behind "whether technology is stealing the jobs of ordinary people".

There are nearly tens of millions of online car-hailing and taxi drivers in China. If the taxi market is concentrated in the hands of individual companies and becomes their money-making tool, what should be done with these tens of millions of drivers who are "squeezed away"?

And everyone is familiar with the model of Pineapple Express cutting leeks.

It starts with a super low price of 4 yuan for 10 kilometers to maliciously seize the market, which is exactly the same as the business model of capital monopoly in the fields of online car-hailing, food delivery, power banks, etc.

Now everyone knows how ugly these capitals are. When they seize the market at a low price, there is no need to guess the result.

So not only online car-hailing drivers don't eat this trick, but even ordinary consumers don't take advantage of capital.

And today is an online car-hailing driver, what about tomorrow?

The anxiety and confusion about the future brought by this incident are not as simple as self-driving taxis stealing the jobs of online taxi drivers.

"Although driverless taxis have been poured cold water, I think the operation of driverless taxis is not a bad thing. It is a product that will inevitably appear with the development of technology. No matter how people try to stop it, this day will come. Even my father who used to drive a taxi knows this."

Zhang Qing looked at Kang Chi with a serious face,

"It's just like you said, technology should make life better, make people work easier and more efficient, rather than stealing people's jobs."

"So I think the group can not only reap the benefits of technology by mobilizing ordinary people to invest, but also mobilize everyone to consume, and use practical technology products to change everyone's work and lifestyle. We will not steal their jobs, but help them make their jobs more fragrant."

"For example, driverless taxis, if it is our group that does this, I think it is entirely possible to let drivers join In addition, each person can only buy one car, which is equivalent to helping them upgrade their money-making tools, rather than concentrating all the money-making tools in the hands of a few people. "

"In terms of business model, we make money from selling cars, and the operating platform is a free service for buying a car, or only a small platform operating fee is charged. Drivers can earn money from car operation just by lying at home, dealing with some special situations, and maintaining their cars. Isn't this a more attractive job?"

"Of course, this is just a hypothesis. I know you don't have plans to make driverless cars for the time being, but the robots you make will sooner or later enter the market. These robots that can be used as money-making tools, as long as they are not concentrated in the hands of a few people, but directly enter thousands of households, everyone will be like buying a "machine servant" or "family", then the resistance to technology promotion will definitely be much smaller. "

"Although there will inevitably be some problems. For example, your robots are remote-controlled and semi-intelligent. If such a strong robot falls into the hands of a bad person, it is likely to be used to do bad things. Although this is not the same as It’s just like a gangster buying a kitchen knife to kill someone, the crime is not the kitchen knife.”

"But because this is a new product, the problem may be infinitely magnified, so we still have to consider recommending some accurate thresholds. Just like buying a car, you must first get a driver's license, and then after buying it, you must get a license plate. The owner of the car must Act responsibly, and the car will help the owner make money or bring convenience to work and life..."

"In short, although there are many issues that need to be considered, this should be a model that promotes technology quickly and can also quickly withdraw funds. The core concept is that technology is dispersed as much as possible, rather than centralized."

Zhang Qing expressed her thoughts about the group's future business model in one breath.

The nagging before leaving meant a lot.

But this nagging undoubtedly got into Kang Chi's heart again.

Looking at the urban beauty in a professional suit in front of him, his heartbeat couldn't help but accelerate.

The last time they had a misunderstanding, Kang Chi had reason to avoid the restlessness in his heart, but at this moment, he faced his own heart very seriously and suddenly became convinced.

For a woman whose body and appearance are both above her own aesthetics, whose ideas are so in tune with hers, and who have worked hard together to this day, it would be a lie to say that she doesn't feel anything.

He opened his mouth and was about to say something, but in the end he held back.

The situation was wrong, and Kang Chi noticed that beneath her confident and strong appearance, she could see the fatigue in the corners of her eyes inadvertently. Kang Chi suddenly felt that he should let her rest for a while, and at the same time, he secretly determined that when the time comes, She must come back in another identity and way.

So the words that came to his mouth became: "These people can have a good chat with Zhuo Wen before they leave."

"Then are you sure you want Zhuo Zhuowen to take over?"

Kang Chi nodded and asked after a moment of silence: "Where...are you going to go next?"

"I haven't thought about it yet. I might find a place with beautiful scenery to relax for a while."
