Chapter 743: Daily Life
"What's the situation? Why do I feel like today's breakfast is tastier than before?" Wei Lan, who was casually twisting her hair, frowned and smacked her lips, savoring the sandwich, steak, and vegetable and fruit salad. Her eyes widened slightly, and her look at Wang Yan was very surprised.
She sat very straight, and her pregnancy of more than three months was already a bit obvious. Although it didn't have much impact on her movement, she still sat seriously.
Wang Yan nodded with a chuckle: "I feel it's not bad either. After cooking for so long, with thick accumulation and thin hair, there should be progress, right here today, right in this breakfast."
He had cooked for so long in the "Youfeng Small Courtyard," basically three meals a day, and basically cooked every day, so he pondered it with his heart. Naturally, his culinary skills rose from the original LV3 to LV4.
It was also a long time, and the whole person was comfortable. This morning, he didn't even feed the dog food to "Agou," but cooked dog food himself. As for whether it was delicious, Agou indicated that his food bowl had been licked clean. He had to perform well recently; was dog food for dogs to eat?
Now his panel was like this:
Wang Yan
Attributes: Strength 30
Agility 30
Constitution 30
Spirit 105
Unallocated points 4
This task completion gave four attribute points. The previous five free attribute points were still added to Spirit.
In terms of other skills, besides the upgrade of culinary skills, photography skills had also improved, but they still hadn't broken through to the master level of LV5. After all, he didn't practice professionally, just used it when he caught up. If it weren't for this, he, an old turtle who had lived for nearly a thousand years, wouldn't have only reached level 4 in culinary skills. It was really that there were few opportunities for him to cook himself, and he didn't have the hobby of enjoying making his own food. Perhaps he had it before, but now he didn't.
He continued, "What do you want to eat at noon? I can't wait to try it now to see if other dishes have improved."
"Hmm... didn't you set the menu? Let's follow that." Wei Lan thought for a while and didn't order any dishes.
She was of course very trusting of Wang Yan, trusting this man who had known her for two years, had already married her, and was pregnant for him, yet was still mysterious. Wang Yan had a good body, knew martial arts, knew photography, editing, and retouching, knew advanced computer technology, knew management, understood finance, knew how to cook, was familiar with TCM health preservation and modern nutrition, and although Wang Yan always said various folk remedies and various barefoot doctors without medical qualifications, she was now very sure that Wang Yan knew TCM and was the very powerful kind.
However, she had never asked, and asking was useless. After all, Wang Yan was so awesome that when he had nothing to do, he read various frontier papers in various disciplines on his tablet and mobile phone, and could explain to her in an easy-to-understand way what was going on, what the value of the paper was, and what was still not clear.
"The people sent out by our charity fund are coming back for a meeting today. We'll decide on a few schools to sponsor today. Do you want to go and see?"
Wang Yan shook his head: "You have full authority. I'll take the time to improve our charity system recently to facilitate tracking the situation in various aspects and information disclosure. You just do it steadily. Plan according to ten million a year first, and add more in two months."
Wei Lan nodded, eating and saying, "There's another thing. In the few days since work started after the New Year, we have recruited quite a few people one after another. According to the principle of being as loose as you said, our office space has long been insufficient. Previously, the health company's employees went to the charity fund, and the technology company's employees were all working in the health company, including a two-hundred-square-meter party branch office we rented later, which is also full. These four office areas add up to 1,100 square meters, not counting the factory side. Our employees will soon be two hundred."
"I asked Manager Yang of the office building yesterday; it's already full, and there's no space. How should we arrange it?"
"Of course, we're moving."
Wang Yan had already finished eating and was sitting at the dining table playing with his phone. He didn't raise his head and said, "You arrange for someone to contact office buildings on both sides of the Qiantang River that can see the river. If there are 3,000 square meters of centralized office space, it doesn't matter if they are separated by a few floors, but try to be centralized, and there must be one floor that can see the river."
"Isn't it too big?"
"Our current office building won't be enough in three months. This year we are going to expand and establish multiple project teams, requiring talents in many aspects. Originally, we set the office space per person at seven square meters. How many people can 3,000 square meters hold? Even if it's tight and shrinks by half, ideally, it can only hold one thousand people. When it really reaches one thousand people, concentrated in a space of 3,000 square meters, it must be noisy and chaotic. How can we do a good job?
According to our snowballing development speed, the newly rented office building will definitely be a matter of three or four months, so we must make plans for the next step. Our future headquarters should have its own factory area, integrating office, production, living, teaching, medical care, etc. So you not only have to consider new office locations all the time but also consider which city and which place to circle land for construction."
Wei Lan used to listen to Wang Yan talk about technology-oriented development plans and hadn't talked about landing scenarios. Now thinking about that scene, it seemed to be a really remarkable thing.
"I believe you can succeed. Then you say, how long will it take to develop to that point?"
Wang Yan laughed: "Preliminary construction should be a matter of two or three years, and continuous investment in construction, until complete completion, will take about ten years. Of course, this is only if we use our own surplus financial resources for construction, and it's still under the condition that everything costs money. But in fact, if we develop well and fast, the government will approve land and give us various preferential policies, which are not small numbers, so the actual process may be faster."
In fact, what he said was a general situation. After all, he had a special hobby, which was that he liked to build wonders. Especially in the real world, he was even more interested. After all, to be honest, everything in the film and television world was an illusory fantasy, belonging to self-comfort, and the real world was the real deal. And really building wonders, the construction period was very long, and it occupied a lot of funds.
"Then which city do you like?"
"I personally don't care. The nature of our company is different, and it doesn't rely much on industrial clusters. Big cities, small cities, even if we run to the deserts of Xinjiang or the mountains of Yunnan and Guizhou, it's no problem. And the reason we are in Lin'an now is that we don't have our own supporting construction, and we can't keep talents in remote small cities. If we build our own headquarters, it doesn't matter.
People's worries are nothing more than medical care, education, and prospects. As long as we can guarantee these, many people are willing to come. As for the so-called big city atmosphere, to put it ugly, they are tired to death every day, and most of the time the places they are active in are just within a radius of ten or twenty miles. What atmosphere can they feel? They are all ordinary people. Our conditions are good, benefits are high, and it's comfortable, so it's not a problem. And when we really reach that point, to be crazy, wherever we settle, that place is a big city.
In fact, I personally want to build the headquarters in Longcheng. It's just that there are no good mountains, good water, and good forests there, which is a pity. After all, we definitely have to find a place with good scenery to enjoy, so there is no need. We will see what industries to put in our hometown in the future, which is considered a contribution."
Wei Lan took out her phone, opened the map, and while pulling it, said: "Then it is estimated that it is those coastal cities. Basically, where there is the sea, the environment is not too bad. In the south, there is still a lot of rain, and it is always windy and rainy, which is not too good. Hmm... Bincheng? Didn't you sell houses there before? It feels like it fits quite well, the city development is not bad, the level is not low, and it can look at the sea to the south. It's just that there are many mountains and few flat lands there. They have been developed almost all these years. If we go there, we can only reclaim land from the sea, and the construction cost is not low, more expensive than spending money to buy land, right?"
"That's for sure. The construction costs are different depending on the depth of the water. According to the normal calculation of two or three meters of water depth, the construction cost per square kilometer is six or seven hundred million. According to the headquarters construction I said, it should need the area of an administrative district of an ordinary small city, which is about three hundred to five hundred square kilometers. We take a middle value of four hundred. Just the money to build the land is nearly three hundred billion. Then there are our various constructions, which will take another two hundred billion. This is five hundred billion. Let's talk about it privately and satisfy our addiction."
"If this is said, we will be caught in a mental hospital. The money in our account is not enough for a fraction. But it is not necessarily Bincheng. There is still a long time. If you have free time, you can study it."
Wang Yan answered with a chuckle. Wei Lan's serious planning of a plan that seemed impossible to ordinary people was quite interesting.
"Everyone with a dream is great, Mr. Wang. Work hard, come on, struggle, I believe you will succeed." Wei Lan raised her eyebrows and cheered him on. Suddenly she asked, "How big is Seoul?"
"Six hundred something."
"Square kilometers?"
"Of course."
"That means if we really reclaim land from the sea to build the headquarters, it is more than half the area of Seoul?"
"Your math is really good."
The two chatted and laughed, and the breakfast time passed like this.
After washing up, leaving behind the dog "Agou" with its tongue out, and the cat "Amao" who was timid but wanted to drill out of the door crack to see the human world, Wang Yan drove the old father-in-law's sponsored small BMW 5 Series, carrying his beloved wife, towards the company on the other side.
Arriving at the company at 9:30, the company was bustling. The programmers, who were the most numerous in the company, had just arrived and were chatting and laughing. A programmer might be a dull gourd, but a group of programmers is definitely not.
The company currently has no interns, and the general age is around thirty. In the entire company's technical post, the one with the lowest level is the veteran level-one employee of Long Teng Technology (Lin'an) Co., Ltd., Ma Zichen.
"Morning, Brother Yan."
Ma Zichen's workstation was outside Wang Yan's office. He was chatting and bragging with others. Seeing Wang Yan strolling in, he hurriedly greeted him. "I guess you're coming soon, so I made tea for you."
He was now following the artificial intelligence project team. The new ones were more ruthless than the others, and he was very desperate. He wanted to ride a donkey to find a horse for a while, but who would have thought that the donkey became a cow, and he couldn't ride it.
Wang Yan was quite concerned about this kid, the company's number one employee, a player with eight zeros and a one on his work card. No matter what, he had to take good care of him. Even if there was no productivity, he would have the most say when talking about the company's development history in the future. Just for this point, as long as this kid was honest, he would definitely be able to mix meat to eat.
Not to mention anything else, ever since the Long Teng branch was implemented and work was carried out, Wang Yan was the first to join the Party. Wei Lan was excellent and was an active member of the Party in college. The second person was Ma Zichen, the number one employee, the third was Chen Yang, and then there were no more.
His development of Party members here was based on a ratio of one percent, and there were only a few each year. Now Ma Zichen and Chen Yang belonged to the benefits of young old employees, and there would be strict standards in the future, and they would be developed cautiously.
So the Party affairs meeting in his company was quite awkward, and there were more dispatched personnel than Party members in the company...
Patting his shoulder, Wang Yan called him into the office and said: "Little Ma, don't do these useless things. Technology company, technology is king. You have a short working time and are not as good as them, which is normal, but you cannot stop progressing. Today is stronger than yesterday, tomorrow is stronger than today, then there is no problem. You are the company's number one employee. I, as the boss and brother, certainly cannot ignore old feelings.
If you really can't do technology and don't want to leave the company, then transferring to an administrative post is also fine. Doing a good job for them is also a contribution. In addition, you can also go to Zhao Zong to help. You are also a newly joined Party member, and you are clear about our company. Party mass construction, ideological construction, these are all top priorities, and you can also shine in the same way. Don't worry about the treatment. Although it cannot be compared with the highest, it is definitely not bad."
Ma Zichen looked at the smiling Wang Yan hesitantly: "Is it okay?"
"Silly boy, I am the boss, what is not okay? As long as you are down-to-earth and honest, as long as the company does not go bankrupt, I guarantee you will work until retirement in the company. If you shine in administration, it is not impossible to be a leader in the future, it depends on your own ability."
"Then I'll try? If I don't do well, I won't be fired, right?"
Wang Yan smiled and waved his hand: "Go find the boss lady and let her arrange work for you."
Ma Zichen walked away with a chuckle. He was quite willing to go to administration, because there were many women in their company's administration, and there were few men. That was a daughter country.
Of course, if possible, he was also unwilling to go to administration. Because this showed that he failed in technology.
This couldn't be blamed on Ma Zichen, it could only be said that his level was too low, and his progress in this area was relatively slow, and he couldn't catch up for a while. The new people who came now all carried some research and development capabilities. Although it was more application capability, this was the watershed. Not to mention anything else, at least their math grades were all very good. In this point, Ma Zichen was much worse. This kind of contrast made him sit on pins and needles.
Children from the village, although they were built by the new countryside, rather than the poor environment before, they also had resilience. There was also some cleverness. Ma Zichen of course also understood the fact that he was the number one employee, and also understood the things here.
This kid was dull and lecherous. If he practiced in administration, he might not be able to practice it. He would have some future in the future.
Without studying those things, Wang Yan opened the computer and started a day's work. First, solve the problems encountered by the team of different modules of the game engine, then discuss and improve the production line with the technician of the production line manufacturer who came to accept the commission. After that, he had to interview the applicants.
He certainly didn't just talk about it. Now he was interviewing talents in computer, new materials, etc. As for other "Easy Translation" and game engine, smart home, etc., he had already interviewed the leaders, and the team members were interviewed by themselves. For the salary and treatment, it was evaluated from multiple aspects, synthesizing friends, synthesizing our company, synthesizing peers, and trying to give a real price that met the level and removed moisture.
Bragging is very common in interviews. In fact, many people in many positions in many companies are not qualified. He gave high here, and it was inevitable that there would be bragging that was not seen through. However, this could not be fooled in work. If it couldn't be used for half a month, it would be fired, and at the same time, it would be included in the company's blacklist.
Wang Yan had always been very tough. Don't care if my company is big or not, I just blacklist you. Not getting a job at Long Teng is a small matter, because they are not qualified enough, but if only this, this blacklist has no deterrent power, because he will also blacklist the purchase qualification of Long Teng products. This restriction will show its power bit by bit.
Zhao Fu was interviewing with Wang Yan along with the human resources people. He was here to see how people were. When interviewing, a file would be left. Regardless of whether this person was successful, it would be stored in the company's database, and there would also be their opinions on it.
As Wang Yan told the interviewer of the computer project straightforwardly that the annual salary was 600,000 after tax, wait for the notice to go to work, the last interview ended, and the two and a half hours of work in the morning also ended.
Zhao Fu sorted out the materials and said: "Wang Zong, I'll say one more word. Isn't your step too big? As the saying goes, a thousand birds in the forest are not as good as one bird in the hand. The company is currently carrying out artificial intelligence, smart home, and game engine, these three projects. Artificial intelligence is still a big project, and our company is developing comprehensively.
Except for smart home, they are all long-term without return, requiring continuous investment of massive funds. Now we are going to expand computer, new materials, oh, and pharmaceuticals, life sciences. Although the strong body pill is a gold mine that cannot be dug, based on the current order volume, it may not be able to support it. I personally feel that it is still a bit anxious."
A thousand birds in the forest are not as good as one bird in the hand? An Zhi Wu is the bird in my hand, not a thousand?
"What you said makes sense, it can be seen that you have worked hard to study our business."
Wang Yan nodded, first recognized, then turned, "However, I only recruited a few people this time, first establish a project team, invest a certain amount of funds to study slowly, and will not suddenly expand the scale. The current main business is still to land our artificial intelligence, whether it is for individual users or enterprise users, develop appropriate products as soon as possible, launch applicable functions, and try to achieve profitability. In this regard, I have also recruited relevant personnel during this period, and it is currently in progress, and there should be results soon."
In fact, the artificial intelligence-related projects are developing very fast, because the core functional modules are all finished. Now what people have to do is just combine and call various modules to realize some functions.
It hasn't reached the step of research and development yet, which is mainly because the company's volume is too small. After all, the research and development team of this level, members often have salaries of hundreds of thousands or millions, he can't afford it now, and he can't attract talents.
Of course, although his technology is not the most advanced he has mastered, it is the most powerful on the market now, and it is also eight streets away from other companies.
As for the office software on the mobile side, it is also faster, because the computer side already has finished products, just modify it and repackage it, there is no big difficulty.
In fact, his office software is also very advanced. This piece is also a very large market, called Enterprise Information Management System, which is commonly known as ERP system. From front desk to finance, from procurement to production, from human resources to internal office processes, etc., a collection of a series of functions. This set of his system is gradually improved with the continuous development of the company, and it is specially developed for his own use.
The operation mode of his company is not necessarily the best, but it is also high efficiency. And he has all the versions used by the company from small to large. In fact, he only needs to organize a group of people, pretend to change it, and take it out to make big money.
The reason why he didn't do it is because he didn't look down on it, because he was not specifically doing this. When the company's scale is large, he has no interest in doing this piece. After all, he has so many projects to be busy with. Although the profit of this piece is also considerable, when he reaches that time, what he lacks is not money at all. It is talent, it is time. Otherwise, even if the money in the film and television world is not money, he will not really be so idle, investing hundreds or thousands of billions to build wonders.
Changing to now is the same. He does ERP, it is also begging for grandparents, no one buys it. Even if it is bought, there will be a lot of various problems in after-sales, back and forth, real strength, simply self-use, not for sale. Specially arrange a small team to iterate continuously.
The development of the company is snowballing, business and scale are expanding continuously, so raising such a team is also appropriate, which is in line with the company's development plan. As for the extra expenses, it doesn't count as anything.
What he mainly wants to do now is undoubtedly the game engine, but the secondary thing is a new project.
Making a game engine is to prepare for the second world in the future, realizing some exchanges across dimensions. But he can't wait until the engine is developed before acting. After all, developing games also requires a lot of time. Then before this, of course, he can't just wait.
Now the smart speaker has sold more than 500,000 units, and the supporting control software has also been downloaded more than 500,000 times. This time is to make an article around this. He wants to develop a voice assistant first, which can not only control smart speakers but also manage mobile phones. After the game is developed in the future, it can be seamlessly connected.
