It took them a month to walk around the Tarim Basin. If it weren't for the latest warm clothes, this cold weather would be really unbearable.
Zhao Yi and Lin Hexia pay more attention to the economic development and social spiritual outlook of each region, while Zhou Jinyu likes to listen to the ethnic music here whenever they have nothing to do.
The ethnic music album Zhou Jinyu wanted to create has not been completed yet. He was busy playing games before, and then followed Zhao Yi to the northwest for a month.
The time used to create was greatly reduced. After being scolded by Zhao Yi several times, she vowed to make this album when she went back to save him from ridiculing her all the time.
It was already December when the three of them returned to the capital. Zhou Jinyu returned home, went straight into his studio, and began to concentrate on composing music. However, he still spent 4 hours playing games every day after dinner and before going to bed.
Zhao Yize began to check the operations of Hualong Clothing Company, Huansha Textile Company, China Education Company, and other companies that use robots to replace manual labor.
Now Lin and Xia have more time, so she is basically in charge of the game that the three of them originally played together, and there is no need to use the time pause card.
Based on an annual output of 30 million units, almost half a year later, Xuantian Technology Company has produced almost 15 million units, and the two key pilot companies have leased 5 million units.
In the past, they needed to use about 14 million front-line workers, but now they only need 5 million robots to complete the workload. The value created by robots per capita is much higher than that of human workers.
After nearly half a year of replacement, basically all front-line workers have gone through the resignation procedures, and now they are starting to organize some management positions to go through the resignation procedures.
The role of management positions is basically to manage employees and arrange production plans. Nowadays, robots are basically doing the work. The information system directly issues production plans, so there is no need for too many managers at all.
Not only management personnel, but also front-line financial personnel, administrative personnel and human resources will also be reduced to varying degrees, because there are no longer needed so many supporting positions to serve front-line staff.
However, it will be difficult for these positions to completely disappear in a short period of time. Especially for financial personnel, the country needs to formulate special laws before they can be replaced by robots.
The company needs logistical support no matter what. This will not disappear just because they are all robots. Therefore, the administrative staff in the company will not completely disappear, but a considerable part will be replaced by robots.
The same is true for the human resources department. As long as there are still real-person positions, the human resources department will still need to exist, but its scale will be significantly reduced.
I saw frontline staff going through the departure procedures comfortably and going home to rest. The time is completely up to them. There are also some people in design positions who took the initiative to apply for departure procedures.
Neither company has any resistance to this, but judging from the contributions of their retired employees in design positions, they will still submit relevant designs or ideas at home in order to obtain more economic income.
According to feedback from the two companies, although in terms of quantity, these off-duty designers are much smaller than those on the job, in terms of quality, they are much higher than those on the job, and their innovative capabilities are actually stronger.
There are two reasons for this situation. The first is that focusing on quantity will take up a lot of time, so there is no point in leaving the job. Therefore, everyone hopes to use quality to make up for quantity, because the higher the quality or innovation, the greater the benefits. The higher.
The second is that when off-duty designers are in a good mood, they can play around and be inspired by some casual scenery or patterns, which is something they cannot do if they sit in an office for a long time.
Yaoguang Environmental Management Company has rented 2 million robots to serve as labor force for the Loess Plateau Management Project and the Yellow River Management Project, hoping to speed up the progress of these two projects.
The Loess Plateau Management Project uses these robots to build roads and infrastructure, and the efficiency has more than doubled than before. However, this is a supplementary labor force, and their employees have not yet been laid off.
After he mentioned the problem of construction workers leaving their jobs to Qin Hongqi, President of China Housing Company in Lop Nur, he immediately went back and started chatting with the CEOs of various construction companies to test their true thoughts.
However, the results are quite disappointing. Private bosses do not have much ideals at all. They even think that using robots is a good thing and can make them more money. They have not considered the interests of these construction workers at all.
As for the CEOs of state-owned enterprises, apart from the interests of established employees, they also don’t think much about the interests of temporarily recruited employees. They are obviously still thinking about the changes in the new era according to the same old thinking.
When Zhao Yiyi told Qin Hongqi about this at first, he felt that the bosses of these construction companies were not so greedy. However, after tentative contact, he felt that he thought of people too perfectly.
He did not intend to release himself, hoping that the bosses of these construction companies would be able to come to terms with the situation. Instead, he quietly started the construction engineering business in the China Housing Company.
Later, their construction business no longer was handed over to other companies, and they gradually began to use it themselves. Since they were currently unable to recruit enough personnel, they rented a large number of robots to do the work, and the number was as high as 1 million.
Seeing that China Housing Corporation actually did this, it is not that there were no construction companies to test the views of China Housing Corporation. Some companies even made a big fuss, forming a certain amount of news and public opinion in the society.
Faced with the overwhelming news that China Housing Corporation’s actions would lead to a large number of workers losing their jobs, Qin Hongqi from China Housing Corporation said directly: “We are doing this for the benefit of these construction workers.
If a construction worker loses his job starting today, he can apply for a job at the China Housing Company and confirm that he is indeed a practitioner in the construction industry. He can go through the resignation procedures on the spot and go home to rest with his salary. "
It's okay if he didn't say this, but once he said it, it immediately caused a stir, causing many construction companies to be unable to continue their business, because many construction workers would ask if they could be transferred to the China Housing Corporation.
Who wants to work outside in the wind and sun when they can earn a salary comfortably? Moreover, the work is strenuous and even very dangerous. Any individual can understand the pros and cons.
Qin Hongqi seems to be disappointed with these private bosses, and even disappointed with the structure of some state-owned enterprise bosses, so she doesn't pay much attention to human feelings.
Those workers who inquired about the situation of China Housing Company, as long as they confirmed that they were indeed engaged in this industry, were basically retained by China Housing Company and had a formal contract.
As long as someone succeeds, it will inevitably attract everyone's attention, causing more and more employees of construction companies to become workers of Chinese housing companies.
Although this has caused a lot of trouble for these construction companies, it has also slowed down the project progress of China Housing Corporation to a certain extent.
Therefore, China Housing Corporation began to contact various construction companies to discuss acquisition matters. After all, the project cannot be delayed and this problem must be solved as soon as possible.
They also have the confidence to propose acquisitions. Not to mention that these projects themselves are underwritten by China Housing Corporation, but because of the massive loss of employees, the construction period has been delayed, and they need to compensate for a large amount of losses.
Although the construction delay was caused by China Housing Corporation itself, there is no such provision in the contract. Strictly speaking, these construction companies also need to pay compensation.
The main reason why China Housing Corporation wants to acquire these construction companies is because these construction companies have a large amount of engineering equipment in their hands. If they do not acquire them, even if China Housing Corporation takes over, they will not have so many engineering equipment in a short period of time.
Therefore, they acquire these companies mainly to value their engineering equipment. As for other things of their company, China Housing Corporation does not have much interest.
In this acquisition process, there are endless games between all parties. Some people use the Internet public opinion to start to hype the Chinese housing company. This is very unethical.
Because these construction companies have indeed made great contributions to the urbanization promoted by China Housing Corporation, but now they want to acquire them and drive them out of the construction industry completely. This makes everyone angry.
Since they like to use public opinion to coerce China Housing Corporation, China Housing Corporation is not a vegetarian and directly tells the outside world that it has not harmed the interests of construction workers, but only the interests of capitalists.
It can even be said that this action is not only targeting private construction companies, state-owned construction companies are also affected, and they will not be treated differently just because they are state-owned companies.
It's not that the state-owned construction company didn't report to its superiors to prevent the China Housing Company from doing this. This did have an effect, and even the phone call reached Zhao Yi.
For a company as big as China Housing Corporation to suddenly have such a big change in style, it was definitely not made by China Housing Corporation itself. It was definitely Zhao Xia's decision behind it.
So they wanted to hear why he did this. This phone call did not mean to accuse him. Such a trivial matter would not cause people of their level to question Zhao Yixing.
Zhao Yi was not ambiguous about this, and said directly: "I actually asked the China Housing Company to give them a chance, just to test whether they were willing to share their wealth, but the result was naturally disappointing.
Not only did they not consider the interests of these construction workers, but they believed that the use of robots could make them more money. This value concept was obviously inconsistent with their own. "
This is still the superficial reason of the matter. The communist society he believes is right in front of him. This idea has not been revealed too much to the outside world. Even the government only knows that he has the idea of building an intellectual society.
This time he did not intend to be vague, but said directly: "With artificial intelligence and robots, the role of capitalists has been greatly weakened, and many industries even do not need the existence of capitalists at all.
With these two major technologies in hand, there is a foundation for building a communist society. Now anyone who does not conform to the communist ideal will be my enemy, and it is natural to make an appropriate layout.
The reason why they are still talking about acquisitions instead of just pushing them to death is that they have made some contributions to social development before them. Otherwise, he would not even bother to acquire them and would just kill them. "
It can be said that this phone call was the first time that he proposed the idea of building a communist society to high-level government officials, although the communism in his mouth was very different from the communist society in the mouth of Marxism-Leninism.
However, there is no precedent for a communist society itself, and it is naturally impossible to establish it according to the script. It must be adjusted based on the actual situation, because after so many years of practice, it has been proved that absolute communism may not be possible.
As for the idea that he was taking the opportunity to suppress the construction company, the senior management did not think so. With his status, there was no need to do so. He was good enough.
After this phone call, the state-owned construction company not only did not receive a satisfactory answer, but also received full cooperation from the China Housing Company and told them not to make any small moves.
With the defection of state-owned construction companies, private construction companies have completely lost their backbone, and state-owned enterprises have also sold their assets and companies to China Housing Corporation.
As if overnight, China's construction industry has completely changed. China Housing Corporation not only controls huge property assets, but also controls almost all construction companies.
After they acquired the construction company, they began to sign formal labor contracts with the construction workers instead of the previous temporary labor contracts. There is still a big difference between the two.
Due to the limited production of Xuantian Technology's robots, it was impossible to replace all existing construction workers and let everyone go through the formalities of leaving their jobs. However, relevant plans and commitments were made, which did not cause much commotion.
Almost all the production capacity of Xuantian Technology Company has been contracted by China Housing Corporation, and 5 million units have been leased. The remaining robots are used by Xuantian Technology Company itself.
However, at the end of December, Xuantian Technology Company's second phase of robot production capacity expansion will be completed, but output will further increase.
The third phase of the 40 million production capacity will be completed in February next year. By then, the annual production capacity of 100 million robots will be completed, and there will be no additional production capacity in the short term.
The number of people working in the construction industry in my country is as high as 120 million. After this incident, China Housing Corporation has 110 million people in its hands. If they want to replace them all with robots, they will need up to 40 million robots.
If Xuantian Technology Company had not expanded production, it would have taken more than a year of work to meet the needs of a Chinese housing company.
Moreover, in order to speed up urbanization, China Housing Corporation plans to increase the number of robots to 60 million units. If normal charges are followed, the rental pressure borne by China Housing Corporation will be too high.
Therefore, it was originally charged at 2.5 times the normal per capita salary, but Xuantian Technology Company gave a preferential price, and the monthly rent was twice the average salary.
Among them, 1.5 times is used to pay the salary to the workers who left their jobs, and the remaining 0.5 times is the income of Xuantian Technology Company. Based on this rent calculation, Chinese housing companies need to pay 0.6 trillion yuan in rent alone every year.
However, compared to using all labor, it is still more cost-effective. This will not only relieve off-duty workers, but also save labor costs for China Housing Company, while also bringing a lot of benefits to Xuantian Technology Company.
As for Chinese education companies, since they are using high-end model robots, they are still in teaching testing and have not yet been officially implemented, so there are not many high-end model robots needed.
However, according to news from a Chinese education company, the use of high-end robots for teaching practice has achieved very high results in terms of teaching effects and parent and student satisfaction.
Therefore, they are preparing to introduce a large number of high-end robots in the next semester, that is, after the beginning of the new year, to supplement the work of vacant teachers, and have already placed an order of 10 million yuan.
There are still many companies queuing up behind him. Everyone has seen the benefits of using robots in the manufacturing industry. Now his manufacturing companies are waiting for them to be queued up.
As for companies in the service industry, they haven't made much action yet. After all, Zhao Yi has explained before that the cost of high-end robots is too high and the cost recovery time is long.
If it weren't for the fact that the education industry is a bit special, and he has always attached great importance to education, he would not necessarily be willing to give priority to providing high-end robots to Chinese education companies.
The most important thing is that the high-end model robots used by Chinese education companies cannot charge 2.5 times the rent like physical enterprises, but can only charge 1 times the normal rent.
Because robot teachers do not need to work 24 hours a day, they cannot create three times the value. If the rent charged is too high, Chinese education companies themselves will not be able to bear it.
Xuantian Technology Company has used robots to build a complete photonic computer industry chain for itself, including photonic chips used by mid-to-high-end robots and super optical brains prepared for use by its companies.
Now the smart city brains of the Building Block Software Company have all been replaced with super optical computers, replacing the traditional supercomputers and then disposed of them to other companies, without causing much loss.
There are still big differences in architecture between super optical brains and super photonic computers. In terms of performance and replaceability, super photonic computers still have the advantage.
However, in terms of size and feedback speed, the super optical brain has an advantage, but its computing power is much lower than that of the super photon computer.
Because the super optical brain manufactured by Xuantian Technology Company is not made of various parts stacked up like traditional supercomputers, but all the parts are integrated into a whole.
Each optical brain is only as big as a basketball. If it is not powered on, there is a standard crystal ball in the middle, and various external interfaces at both ends.
Once powered on, the inside of the crystal ball will be covered with light of various colors, completely turning into a ball of light. As the calculation becomes busier, the brightness of this ball of light becomes higher.
The reason why it is designed to be integrated is mainly for technical confidentiality. Because it is formed in one piece, it cannot be disassembled at all. If it is disassembled by force, it will be destroyed instantly.
In addition, due to its design, the probability of damage is very low. As a super optical brain, the theoretical service life of the core optical sphere exceeds 100 years. On the contrary, the service life of the interfaces on both sides is not that long.
Moreover, multiple super optical brains can be connected to form a matrix with stronger computing power, breaking through the computing power limit of a single optical brain and creating conditions for large-scale deployment.
Such a super optical computer is not cheap, costing 100 million yuan. This is because it is for internal use. Xuantian Technology Company has given a friendly price. If it is for takeout, the price will be at least ten times higher.
For a city with a population of 10 million to meet the computing power needs of a smart city, it needs 10 such super optical brains to form a matrix, which means it will cost 1 billion yuan.
Including the super data storage equipment that needs to be used to meet the data storage needs and computing power needs for 100 years, it will cost 5 billion yuan, an average of 50 million yuan per year.
The biggest cost here is actually data storage. This is because the data storage technology provided by Zhao Yi is very advanced. If we follow the traditional storage model, the annual cost will be at least 1,000 times what it is now.
However, these are ideal practices. In actual use, some data will not be saved forever. It is good to be able to save it for about 5 years, so storage space will be freed up regularly for new data.
The price quoted by Jimu Software Company to the government is 100 yuan per capita per year. In other words, in a city with a population of 10 million, the government needs to pay 1 billion yuan in computing power expenses every year, including data storage fees.
For a city with a population of 10 million, it is easy to spend 1 billion yuan every year. They no longer need to collect fees from residents. All public service expenses will be unified expenditures by the government.
As for some of the expenses used by commercial enterprises, they have not yet been promoted, and the effect is not yet known. Moreover, most of their energy was not in this area before. This is a business that they need to focus on in the future.
Super optical computers are now industrialized. In fact, the cost is not high. After taking into account the cost of establishing an industrial chain, the cost of each unit is only 10 million yuan, and this is because the current quantity is not large.
If sold as a normal commercial product, the cost can be reduced to 100,000 yuan or even lower, which is no higher than today's so-called high-end personal computers.
For example, some personal computers assembled by wealthy people also cost more than 100,000 yuan. All of them are top-of-the-line, but their performance is far from that of super optical computers.
At present, super optical computers are not only supplied to building block software, but key enterprises under his umbrella have begun to undergo comprehensive internal renovations, preparing to replace the original data centers with super optical computers.
The data centers owned by Xuantian Technology Company will gradually be replaced with super optical computers. If production is possible, the domestic part of the cloud platform servers owned by Xinghan Technology Company will also be replaced in the future.
The replaced products will then be handed over to Xinghan Technology Company for deployment in overseas data centers to increase the computing power and capacity of overseas cloud platforms. Anyway, foreign consumers will pay for it.
In the future, important domestic units will gradually transfer their data computing platforms to super optical computers. After all, super optical computers have many advantages, but this requires a process.
Just to meet the needs of his own companies, there is a lot of demand. After all, the economic size of his companies occupies such a large domestic economy, it is not that simple.
Zhao Yi was still very happy to see that this year's plans were successfully completed, but the good mood did not last long and was ruined by an inexplicable letter. (End of chapter)
