The World Civilization Million Lords
Chapter 3738: , Automation and cheap labor
The existence of three fixed space doors allowed a large amount of cheap labor to be continuously transported back to the civilization of the world.
Although the civilization of Wanjie has been developed for so many years, many facilities in all walks of life have been automated, but a lot of human work has not been eliminated on a large scale.
What is the reason for this?
Along with the automation of a large number of industries, a large number of people in all walks of life have become unemployed. This situation has occurred in their civilizations.
Things are also very realistic.
To give a simple example, a factory worker, with a monthly salary of five thousand yuan, works ten hours a day.
And if this money is used to maintain the operation of automated equipment.
This equipment can run for twelve hours a day, and even in a hurry, it can run 24 hours a day.
Moreover, the error rate of the equipment controlled by this intelligent system is far lower than that of manual work.
Under this premise, the working hours are longer than you, the work efficiency is higher than you, and the cost that needs to be consumed is about the same as the cost of hiring workers, or even less.
Why should a large factory with capital hire workers?
At that time, as soon as these automation equipment were put on the market and became popular, large-scale layoffs suddenly appeared in a large number of factories in civilization.
Suddenly, the unemployment of a large number of people directly caused social unrest.
Luo Ji, who had confirmed this situation at the time, was also a little dazed, and then hurriedly asked Ye Qingxuan about the situation.
Because this one is mainly in charge of Ye Qingxuan.
As for Luo Ji’s question, Ye Qingxuan seemed to have been mentally prepared, so she spread her hands and put a document in front of Luo Ji at the same time, saying...
"In this era of technological advancement and civilization, a large number of industries have entered automation. It is inevitable that some basic labor will be eliminated. But rest assured, this state will not last long."
While speaking, Ye Qingxuan directly helped Luo Ji turn the document to the third page.
Needless to say, Luo Ji already understood what Ye Qingxuan meant, and quickly focused on the third page of the document.
I saw that it actually counted the number of layoffs and the total number of workers in many factories, large and small, so far.
Even, for the convenience of comparison, Ye Qingxuan helped him to mark the scale of those factories.
Later, Luo Ji soon discovered a very mysterious phenomenon.
That is, in terms of the number of people alone, those large factories that casually have hundreds of thousands or even millions of workers, the number of layoffs seems to be more, but in terms of proportions, it is actually those small and medium-sized factories that lay off workers. The ratio is bigger.
However, these small and medium-sized factories cannot be ignored.
Although in a small and medium-sized factory, the number of jobs and the number of employees it can provide is far less than those of large factories, but there are so many small and medium-sized factories!
In all civilizations, countless small and medium-sized factories add up, and the number of layoffs is amazing.
After discovering this situation, Luo Ji had been busy for a day and was getting tired. He didn't bother to figure it out on his own, so he directly threw the problem to Ye Qingxuan.
"Qingxuan, what's the matter?"
"In fact, this matter is not complicated to speak of. Just look at the daily operation and maintenance costs of automation equipment. It is naturally cheaper than labor costs, and there are many advantages. In the long run, as long as there are no accidents, use automation The price/performance ratio of the equipment is definitely higher"
"But the money for purchasing equipment is not a small sum. The investment in the initial purchase is not something that some small factories can take out at once. Therefore, the poorest small factories still have to rely on manpower to operate."
"I understand the truth, but what about the big factories? From a proportional point of view, the layoffs of those big factories are even less than that of many medium-sized factories."
After listening to Ye Qingxuan's explanation, Luo Ji raised his doubts again.
In response, Ye Qingxuan's face was full of meaning.
"The reason is also very simple. Of course, big factories can get the money for large-scale equipment purchases, but the people at big factories are not stupid. They can't be stupid. Without thinking about it, they started to purchase automation equipment on a large scale. The factory’s assignments usually go to talk to the staff first."
Hearing this, Luo Ji raised his eyebrows, he understood...
"Assuming that an automated device corresponds to a worker with a monthly salary of 5,000, and hiring this worker is at a loss, how about reducing the monthly salary of the hired worker to four thousand five, or even four thousand?"
"As long as wages drop, the cost of hiring staff will go down. In this way, the cost-effectiveness of manpower can be slowly reflected."
At this moment, Luo Ji completely understood.
And Ye Qingxuan continued to say...
"So, don't worry, in the final analysis, the investment in these automation equipment only makes those jobs that can be easily replaced by machines cheaper, but it will not be really eliminated."
"This is an inevitability caused by UU reading www.uukanshu.com under the highly developed technology, and it is inevitable."
I have to say that this is a very real problem.
Those who set up factories are not doing charity. Under the condition that there is a machine that can do better than you and save more cost than you, a labor with little content, his advantage should be taken from Where is it reflected?
In the face of this era of large-scale automation, those who are not enterprising will face an increasingly difficult environment even if they will not be completely washed away by the waves of this era.
If you want to ride the waves, you have to constantly improve yourself...
And this group of people transported back from the magical civilization naturally became the cheapest labor force in their ten thousand world civilization.
It's so cheap that you only need three meals a day and a place to stay.
In accordance with the rules, excluding individual criminals and war criminals, ordinary cheap labor must work for them for five years of civilization in the world.
In these five years, if you perform well at your job, you can get rid of this status and become a full citizen.
After this, if they want to sign a contract, hold a normal salary, continue to work there, or give up the job here and find a new job by themselves, then they choose whatever they want.
And according to Luo Ji's so many years of experience, most of them would choose to stay there.
The reason is very simple, because when confirming the identity of the population, they have already screened the population of these empires.
Needless to say, talents, even those who possess a skill have already been selected in advance.
Those who will be missed are only a few.
Basically, those who are classified as cheap labor are really just some cheap labor.
