Chapter 89: Liu Qingli's Pressure
Hearing this, Su Xin could not help but smile.
"Qingli, are you blaming me for slacking off during this period?"
Liu Qingli chuckled: "I wouldn't dare blame the boss. You are the boss; you provide both the capital and the technology, so it is perfectly normal to slack off in your spare time."
"However."
"I just want to remind the boss that if you want to achieve results once and for all like you did with the previous Tiantian Assistant and Thor Battery, intelligent driving might not satisfy that requirement."
"Whether during the R&D process or the cooperation process, it will require a great deal of the boss's energy; it just depends on whether the boss thinks it is worth it."
Su Xin smiled: "You really do understand me; I truly don't like things that are too troublesome."
"But..."
"Why should I take the initiative to adapt to their various car models? Wouldn't it be better to let the major car companies take the initiative to adapt to my standards?"
Speaking of this, a flash of intense confidence appeared on Su Xin's face, and he said proudly:
"As long as the intelligent driving program I develop is excellent enough to make major car companies scramble to join, they will naturally take the initiative to cater to my standards."
"Moreover, the intelligent driving program for cars is not as complicated as you think. I only need to develop the core parts and encapsulate them; the minor details can be made open."
"As long as the structural configuration differences between various car models are not too great, the company's technicians can adjust the parameters based on the data of each model."
Stunned for a moment by Su Xin's confidence, Liu Qingli was dazed for a while before she snapped back to reality, her pretty face flushing slightly as she said softly:
"Alright, since the boss has made a decision, I will study the knowledge in this area well."
Immediately, she asked again: "By the way, boss, why do you want to establish a new company to develop intelligent driving instead of putting it under the name of Tianqi Energy or Tianqi Technology?"
"Tianqi Energy and intelligent driving both belong to the automotive industry, so it would be more appropriate to put them together."
"Tianqi Technology and intelligent driving both belong to the field of Artificial Intelligence, so it would also be reasonable to put them together."
Su Xin shook his head: "Actually, my positioning for Tianqi Energy is the energy industry. The reason I am entering the automotive industry with power batteries now is just to take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to quickly open up the situation. The future development direction will still be focused on the energy field."
"As for Tianqi Technology, although it belongs to the field of Artificial Intelligence like intelligent driving, the former is a pure software industry, while the latter belongs to an industry that deeply integrates software and mechanical equipment."
"The two are very different and both have great room for development, so operating them separately is best."
"By the way, since we are on this topic, you should arrange to change the name of Tianqi Technology to Tianqi Intelligent Software Technology Company."
"And for the newly established company, since the focus is on mechanical equipment within the field of Artificial Intelligence, let's call it Tianqi Intelligent Equipment Technology Company."
Hearing this, Liu Qingli seemed to understand something and said thoughtfully:
"It seems that besides intelligent driving, the boss has already decided on more R&D directions."
Su Xin nodded with a smile:
"That's right, I am also preparing to research intelligent flight programs for drones, which might be developed together with intelligent driving for cars at that time."
"Perhaps even intelligent robots, intelligent security, intelligent aircraft, and intelligent aerial rail transit systems in the future, and so on."
"Artificial Intelligence has very broad prospects; even if subdivided into intelligent software and intelligent equipment, they will both have a large scale."
Following Su Xin's words, Liu Qingli instinctively imagined a future where Tianqi Group dominated every industry, and she felt the prospects were bright.
"The boss is so strong, I must also keep working hard to keep up!"
Liu Qingli sighed inwardly.
She felt a heavy pressure in her heart.
She used to think that with her abilities, she could handle managing a large company alone with ease, but ever since following Su Xin, she increasingly felt the limitations of her own abilities.
Because Su Xin's technical strength was too strong.
It was as if as soon as he entered an industry, he could immediately become the hegemon of that industry.
From the initial Tiantian Assistant to the current Thor Battery, this made Liu Qingli firmly believe in this point.
Under such a boss who was strong to the point of being monstrous, if she did not keep learning and growing, she would sooner or later be eliminated for failing to keep up with the company's rapid development and expansion.
Initially, there was only Tianqi Technology Company and only one product, Tiantian Assistant, and she still appeared to have plenty of room to spare as president.
In just over two months, Tianqi Technology continued to develop and grow, with revenue hitting new highs, which made her happy and satisfied with her work results.
But in the past month or so.
With the founding and development of Tianqi Energy, she kept learning knowledge related to power batteries and the automotive industry, and deeply felt the insufficiency of her own ability and knowledge.
As a senior executive, she did not need to understand the specific technology, but she could not be ignorant of the industry.
However, as a layman who previously knew nothing about the automotive industry, there was too much for her to learn. Coupled with the fact that power batteries were a new technology with high professionalism, she could by no means reach a certain level of understanding just by checking some materials or flipping through books!
The most critical thing was that Su Xin would be involved in more industries next, and they were basically all high-tech fields she was completely unfamiliar with.
If she could not keep up with Su Xin's development, her position in the company would very likely be slowly replaced by others, and she would eventually be removed from the core management layer.
"It seems that in my spare time, I still have to hire some professional teachers to teach me; relying solely on self-study is really hard to gain much."
Liu Qingli made a decision in her heart.
After the meeting ended, she began to arrange the adjustment of the company's structure and contacted the authorities to propose the need to purchase land.
……
Su Xin had nothing to do for the moment. After returning to his office, he opened Tianwei Butler to check the to-do list for this period.
According to his requirements, matters in the company that needed his handling would be reported immediately if they were important and urgent; those that were important but not urgent would be recorded on the to-do list for him to handle whenever he had time.
Tianwei Butler, which was integrated with the company's ERP System, could be said to be Su Xin's most intimate Smart Butler. It not only helped him monitor the company's financial and human resources data but also acted as an electronic secretary, recording all the big and small affairs that needed to be handled.
Nowadays.
The to-do list, which had accumulated over three days, already had more than a dozen pending items.
After signing a few electronic documents, Su Xin looked at one of the top-ranked to-do items—developing a chat companion function plug-in.
Behind this to-do item, there was also a brief explanation:
This item came from a suggestion by a user on Tiantian Forum, with as many as 1.22 million likes and over 20,000 replies. After evaluation by the team, it was recommended to be developed with priority.
Finally, it was attached with a forum link and a requirement description for this function.
