"Employment issues have always been a concern of mine. In this regard, I will make corresponding restrictions to limit the specific uses of humanoid robots. If the work exceeds the scope of the robot's responsibilities, the robot will refuse to perform the task.
The business scope of humanoid robots is mainly in the field of housekeeping services and limited commercial services. The number of people employed in this field in my country is basically negligible and will not cause a big impact. " Zhao Yi said.
After hearing his answer, the old man nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "It's good that you can think of this in advance. In fact, I feel more at ease when you do things.
The reason why I am worried this time is mainly because I am afraid that you will not be able to control some problems caused by new technologies, so I asked you to come over and have a discussion to avoid unnecessary impacts.
In fact, the country is supportive of this high-tech field. As long as it is conducive to the development of the country and the happy life of the people, we will support it. "
"I will remember your teachings." Zhao Yi replied.
"Do you want more security personnel?" the old man asked with concern.
"Don't be so troublesome. My current private security team has more than 20 people, which is enough to deal with most unexpected situations. With some other means of self-protection, the security force is still sufficient.
In addition, I prefer to be quiet and seldom hang out. Even if you want to deal with me, you don't have much chance. " Zhao Yi said.
In the past few years, in order to speed up the rapid development of his industries, he was still running around. Now many industries are on the right track, and they can develop step by step, and there is no need for him to get too involved.
Now that his high-end robot has been developed, he can just send high-end robots when he goes out in the future. Especially in new industries, he does not need to do everything personally.
In addition, his security personnel are all equipped with individual combat uniforms, which greatly enhances their combat power. Except for the lack of heavy firepower equipment, other aspects are not bad at all.
Moreover, the vehicle he uses is also of the highest safety level. Ordinary rocket launchers basically do no damage to his vehicle. In addition, with the blessing of the suit he uses, there is basically no chance to deal with him with ordinary means.
In addition, I am not a vain person, and it is even more impossible to induce him to go abroad. Moreover, it is not that the country does not have relevant arrangements, but it is not easy to point out.
When the old man heard that he declined this kind offer, he didn't particularly care. His close security was enough to protect him. What he said just now reflected the country's concern for him.
As a national treasure, his safety has always been a key concern of the country. Fortunately, he is also relatively self-disciplined. Except for necessary outings for work, he basically stays at his residence, so his security work is not that difficult.
“I have also read the Northwest Climate Transformation Plan and Ecological Transformation Plan that you discussed. They are very ambitious. If it is as stated in the report, it will have a very large impact on the climate of the entire country.
I personally agree that everyone is more inclined to let you take on this responsibility, but I don't know if you can bear it? asked the old man.
He was not surprised at all that the old man knew about this. This plan is really too huge. Not only is the scale of investment huge, but it will also cause huge changes to our country's climate and ecology.
Although he basically did not participate in the discussion of related issues later, and only participated in two meetings, the plan has been completely spread within the government, and related discussions are also very frequent.
Even the media has made relevant reports on this, but they quoted people familiar with the matter, which is considered to be a tip to the outside world to see what the public thinks of this plan.
Generally speaking, the feedback from public opinion is relatively positive, especially the people in the northwest region. They have long been fed up with the current harsh climate and hope that the country can change the current status quo in one fell swoop.
Although other voices occasionally appear, they are not considered mainstream voices. However, the issues raised by some people are indeed worthy of discussion, so the government is also collecting issues so that it can be considered more comprehensively.
Zhao Yi's current task is to raise funds and prepare for the implementation of future plans. However, according to the current situation, it may take several months before there is a clearer conclusion.
The government is also organizing more expert teams to inspect the northwest region and the Talum Basin, hoping to master more relevant information and make this plan more solid.
“To be honest, this Xuantian Technology Company is actually prepared to raise funds for the Northwest Climate Transformation Plan and Ecological Transformation Plan. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have come up with the good stuff in my hand.
Among them, the robot business is one of them. In addition, there will also be holographic projection equipment, smart glasses and other businesses. Of course, I will not talk about other scattered businesses. " Zhao Yi replied.
The old man nodded and did not make too many comments. Regarding the business aspect, he believed that Zhao Yi could handle it well. As for why he did not use the resources on hand to support this plan, he also knew clearly.
Nowadays, domestic infrastructure construction and urbanization are accelerating. There are too many places to spend money, and they are already running. It is not a wise choice to reduce the scale at this time.
We need to know how much rural surplus labor currently exists around China Housing Company. If we reduce the scale at this time, it will cause big problems.
This is why Zhao Yi had no intention to misappropriate the funds of China Housing Company from the beginning, and even needed to invest more funds in order to cope with the increase in labor costs.
Companies like his have seen a huge increase in turnover in the past year. The combined scale of all of them is very large, and the overall scale has doubled from before.
The bulk of the business is naturally contributed by Yadai Company and China Pharmaceutical Company. The business of many other companies is actually the result of natural growth, but it has also improved to a greater or lesser extent.
Of course, the smartphone business is also very eye-catching. This business can bring him good profits in the future, but in terms of profit scale, it is still incomparable to Chinese pharmaceutical companies.
However, Polaris will officially launch its own smart home products next year, and it will not be sporadic, but a full set of smart home products, involving all aspects of the home field.
It has also cooperated with furniture companies under Shangtong Trading Company to expand the scope of smart home and integrate almost all kinds of equipment and furniture used indoors into the smart home system.
Although he doesn’t know how long it will take to achieve results, he also strongly agrees with this idea. If it is recognized by consumers, the market will be in the trillions of yuan, not less but more.
"What do you think of the next domestic economic development?" the old man asked.
He knew what the old man meant by asking this. In the past year, the domestic economic development was actually very radical, and many people were opposed to it at the beginning.
In the past, due to the small size of the economy, it didn't matter if the economy developed very fast. As long as one of his companies grew up, the economic growth it would bring would be huge.
In those years, it was normal for the economy to double directly. But when the size exceeds 5 trillion US dollars, it is actually very difficult to continue rapid development.
In fact, when my country's economic scale reaches more than 2 trillion US dollars, the economic growth rate is not as rapid as before, but compared with the normal growth rate of the global economy, it is still frighteningly high.
This is due to Zhao Yi's continuous investment, and the reform of state-owned enterprises has also achieved initial results. Many factors contributed to the subsequent period of rapid development, and there was no obvious development stagnation.
Last year, in order to cope with the possible significant economic slowdown, Zhao Yi proposed financial expansion. This was a bold and risky move. Although it was carefully calculated, it was inevitable that he felt a little uneasy.
Fortunately, in the past year, the whole country worked together, and all parties cooperated with each other, and the problems caused by financial expansion were able to be stabilized, and economic development did not slow down significantly.
Although it did not directly double as before, it did meet expectations, because the period of financial expansion began in the second half of the year, so in essence, the financial expansion in the past year will continue into the next year. Year.
Therefore, after the effectiveness of financial expansion in the past year is released, the total economic volume can actually double, which can be seen from the national average salary level.
Although he is very satisfied with the economic development in the past year, the old man is also a little worried about this year's economic situation, so he asked him what he thinks about it.
“Although prices across the country rose to varying degrees last year, they were generally controllable, especially compared to the increase in average wages. This inflation is still acceptable.
As for the economic development this year, the main focus is to maintain financial stability for the time being and release the momentum brought about by financial expansion last year.
If more radical measures are not taken, the economic growth rate can still be maintained at around 30%, and the national average salary may not rise significantly.
Because in the past year, salaries have increased so fast, which has put a certain amount of pressure on various industries. Although it will not collapse, some problems have arisen.
It is a good idea to take advantage of this opportunity to stabilize the pace. Enterprises can also take a breather, find new sources of profits, and provide new momentum for subsequent development. " Zhao Yi said.
To be honest, the past year has really made it difficult for domestic companies to breathe. His industries are better. After all, they already have good profit margins. The rapid increase in labor costs has not brought much pressure. .
This is not the case for other companies. Many companies are actually barely able to survive because it takes time to find new markets and labor costs are rising all the time.
Fortunately, industrial raw materials have basically remained stable, and coupled with the use of some methods to improve corporate efficiency, large-scale bankruptcies will not occur.
It was precisely because the old man was aware of some problems that existed in the past year that he specifically asked him for his opinion on this. Originally, Zhao Yi supported the continued moderate financial expansion.
However, after reading various reports sent by Shangtong Trading Company, I feel that it is better to be on the safe side and give major companies a breath of relief. At least labor costs cannot expand significantly again.
"So financial stability should be the key next. There should be neither monetary tightening, which would make business operations more difficult, nor substantial monetary expansion, which would increase all costs.
However, I think moderate expansion is also necessary, but it cannot be as violent as in the past year. Everyone has become accustomed to the environment of rapid domestic economic growth, and it will not be obvious at once, and it will also cause some problems.
Therefore, there still needs to be a certain increase in salary levels, but a rocket-like increase like in previous years is unlikely to occur. Long-term stable growth will be the new trend.
The main purpose of more funds is to lay a solid foundation, including infrastructure, technological innovation, improvement of production efficiency, etc. When these are well solved, the next wave of outbreaks will occur. " Zhao Yi said.
In fact, the rapid rise in labor costs in the past many years was deliberately created by him. Since the collective economy of his companies is large enough, an increase in their salaries will also prompt other companies to increase their salaries to a certain extent.
For example, at the beginning, the lowest salary for employees in his company was twice that of the outside world. For positions with a bit of technical content, the salary was higher, because the salary at that time was really too low. It was only more than ten yuan a month, and he could get 30 yuan. The money is amazing.
In the past year, the salary level of employees in his companies has been almost at the same level as the outside world. Although it may be higher, it will not double the salary for the same position.
He did this before. On the one hand, the profitability of his companies is too strong. Salary costs are simply not worth mentioning in the company's operating costs. There is not much pressure to increase salaries.
On the other hand, there is a sense of urgency, hoping that a huge domestic demand market can be formed as soon as possible, so that the dependence on the outside world is not so strong, and problems in the international market will not cause a huge blow.
Judging from the average monthly salary at the end of last year, it has basically reached Zhao Yi's expected goal of a maximum average monthly salary of 1,200 yuan. This year, the annual income of the working class can reach more than 7,200 US dollars, which is not low.
In terms of average salary, our country's level is not far from that of developed countries. However, in terms of per capita GDP, there is still a slight gap. The main reason is that salaries have risen too fast in the past year.
At this point, the domestic demand market has actually been cultivated, and he can now be relatively calm and does not need to be as anxious as before.
So the next step is to stabilize the situation, increase the size of GDP per capita, and give companies time to increase their profit margins. Salaries can no longer rise as sharply as they did in the past year.
Under normal circumstances, per capita salary only accounts for about 50% of per capita GDP. In the past year, my country's per capita salary reached 70% of GDP, which is much higher than the normal level.
This is also what was said before. Companies need to be given a chance to breathe. With wages rising relatively slowly, GDP per capita can be increased to reach a new balance.
And if you want to become a developed country, not only the per capita GDP must meet the standard, but also all levels must keep up, such as the level of infrastructure, the level of the service industry, etc.
This is why Zhao Yi emphasized infrastructure and urbanization construction earlier, so that his industries can accelerate the development of the tertiary industry and increase the proportion of the tertiary industry in GDP.
Of course, it is very difficult to do all these things in the process of intense economic development, especially with the rapid development of our country in such a short period of time.
When it was first developed, he had realized that there must be a certain focus, so he put industrial development first, agricultural development second, and service industry development last.
Because the development of the tertiary industry must be based on the highly developed primary and secondary industries. At the same time, if the service industry is to develop with high quality, the demand for talents is also a top priority.
As for our country, both before and now, there is actually a shortage of high-end talents in the service industry. This problem will still exist for a long time to come.
Because judging from the current situation in our country, most of the college students who graduate every year will still enter the primary and secondary industries, as well as work in government departments.
As for the development of the service industry, talents can only be improved through internal training. There are relatively few opportunities to obtain talents from universities. After all, other aspects require talents from universities more.
He can't say much about other service-oriented companies, but Shangtong Trading Company has done a very good job in cultivating high-end service-oriented talents. Many people who only had a junior high school degree can now work independently after being trained.
It is their efficient and high-quality training system that makes them unique in the domestic service industry. It is basically difficult to find competitors, and the service quality has always been the best in the country.
After comprehensive consideration, Zhao Yi still adopts a cautious attitude, because he cannot only care about himself and ignore the operating conditions of other companies. The national economy must be considered comprehensively.
The old man looked surprised when he heard his story. In their eyes, Zhao Yi has always been relatively radical in economic development. Over the years, his approach has achieved remarkable results.
Especially last year, he actually accomplished the goal according to his plan. I originally thought that he would continue his method, but I didn't expect that even he would put it first.
"I didn't expect that you would suggest such a thing, which makes me a little surprised." The old man said with a smile.
"It's right to be confident, but you can't be conceited. All suggestions need to be based on reasonable data analysis. I can also feel the pressure of domestic enterprises through data analysis.
Blindly attacking with high authority is not a good medicine for economic development. Safety is the first priority. The reason why I did that before was because I was very sure.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that the total economic scale at that time was not very large, and it was easier to improve it. Now that our country's economic scale is not small, it is a bit unfeasible to continue to be like before.
Moreover, our country's domestic demand market has been basically cultivated, and its ability to withstand international trade risks has been greatly enhanced. It is just the right time to lay various foundations and provide new impetus for strong economic growth in the future. " Zhao Yi said. (End of this chapter)
