Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 703: Inspecting the Base (Part 2)

The Phoenix Refrigerator Production Base was the next stop of Lu Shaohua's inspection. It was also the production base with the least domestic sales of products produced by the Phoenix base. Just as Lu Shaohua expected, not many people in China would buy refrigerators, so Phoenix refrigerators could only be exported.

Lu Shaohua knew very well that people's lives were still far from luxurious. A family with a TV, VCD or something like that was considered wealthy, but not many people would buy a refrigerator.

Of course, Phoenix refrigerators have low sales in China, but that doesn't mean no one buys them, nor does it mean that Phoenix refrigerators have fewer products. As for the quality of Phoenix refrigerators, it's not necessary to say much. Phoenix Group's products are all high-quality. Therefore, Phoenix refrigerators are exported, but the number of products produced each year is not too small.

According to the summary report made by Chu Lei, the monthly sales volume of Phoenix refrigerators is on par with that of Phoenix computers, and the numbers are very close. Well, to put it bluntly, the number of Phoenix refrigerators sold is about the same as the number of Phoenix computers sold.

With such good sales, the production base would naturally not be too small. In fact, when Lu Shaohua walked into the production base of Phoenix refrigerators, he realized that the production base of Phoenix refrigerators was equal to the production base of Phoenix TVs, occupying the same space and having the same number of floors.

"Phoenix Refrigerator does a great job." Lu Shaohua looked straight at the busy employees, his voice a little ethereal, as if he was talking to the air.

Almost all the electrical appliances used by Lu Shaohua in his home are products of Phoenix Group, such as TV, DVD, refrigerator, etc., which are all products of his group. Having used them, Lu Shaohua certainly knows the quality.

However, there is one thing that Lu Shaohua is not very satisfied with, and that is the issue of power consumption. The current Phoenix refrigerator consumes 24 degrees of power in 2 hours. Although all brands of refrigerators in the world have reached this number, Lu Shaohua is not satisfied. Compared with the 24st century in his previous life, the power consumption of a refrigerator in 0.5 hours was only degrees. The difference between the two is too far.

"We need to work harder on the issue of power consumption." Lu Shaohua added this sentence in order to remind Chu Lei what to do next and to provide a general direction for the development of Phoenix Refrigerator.

Like Phoenix TV, Chu Lei and his team have found the general direction of development and turned to high definition and LCD, while the original Phoenix VCD has turned to Phoenix DVD. This is the choice that must be made as the times change.

As for the current Phoenix refrigerator, there is no other way to change, and the only way is to make a breakthrough in technology, reduce power consumption, and increase the competitiveness of Phoenix refrigerators. Because Lu Shaohua believes that other brands of refrigerators will also work harder in this regard.

Chu Lei seemed to know that Phoenix Refrigerator would not develop without a breakthrough in technology, so when Lu Shaohua said that if they worked hard on power consumption, Chu Lei was stunned at first, then thought about it for a long time, and then nodded solemnly after a long time, saying, "Don't worry, I will arrange people to study this aspect."

"Yeah." Lu Shaohua nodded slightly, looked at the workshop a few more times, then turned around and left without saying anything.

At the next stop, Lu Shaohua did not plan to waste time on some unnecessary places. After all, there were still many places in the entire Phoenix base that he had to see, and Lu Shaohua certainly did not want to waste time.

According to Lu Shaohua's plan, he wanted to inspect all the remaining production bases in one day. However, there are not many production bases left now, and many of them can be inspected without much attention. The only one that requires Lu Shaohua to waste time is Phoenix Computer.

Phoenix Computer is the highlight and one of the key points in Lu Shaohua's plan. Since it is one of the key points, Lu Shaohua certainly needs to be careful when inspecting it.

And this is indeed the case. Lu Shaohua deliberately put Phoenix Computer at the end. He went to all other places first and came to Phoenix Computer as the last stop.

The sales volume of Phoenix Computer is not very good now, but it is a high-tech product after all, and its prospects are very strong, which is inevitable. So when the computer production base was built at that time, we only built a few floors at the beginning, and later on, we added more buildings.

The current Phoenix Computer Production Base is already a 30-story building. Fortunately, there was a plan at the time and the foundation was laid very solidly, so we were able to add more than ten floors at a later stage.

Looking at the building that looked the same on the outside, Lu Shaohua felt a little touched. He thought about how Chen Guobang had gone through so much trouble to get to the Soviet Union and lay out the plans for so many years, and finally got those technologies and recruited so many talents.

Not to mention that Chen Guobang was facing danger at that time, even now, Lu Shaohua would not allow others to destroy him if he bought their military products and various technologies and poached their top talents. Just thinking about it, Lu Shaohua still has lingering fears.

But it finally passed, and now everything is safe. Lu Shaohua will certainly not forget that it was Chen Guobang's credit. Even if the current Tiger Roar Base has a thriving development prospect, Lu Shaohua will not say that it is his credit, but Chen Guobang's credit.

The reason why the Tiger Roar Base is what it is today is entirely due to those military technologies. The predecessors of those military technologies were all obtained by Chen Guobang in the Soviet Union. It was not until the later period that the top military workers in the secret base developed and researched them, and it became what it is today.

"call……"

After a long while, Lu Shaohua let out a long sigh. Everything in the past seemed to have happened yesterday. The clear process was in Lu Shaohua's mind, forcing Lu Shaohua to try hard to suppress it and bury those mixed thoughts deep in his mind.

"Let's go in and take a look..." Lu Shaohua's voice was very soft, and he dragged out a long tone. Anyone who could hear it could tell how much Lu Shaohua felt at this moment.

However, Chu Lei and the others didn't know what was in Lu Shaohua's mind. The only people who knew why Lu Shaohua was like this were Li Shangkui and others who had been with Lu Shaohua in the early days, because they knew the origin of Phoenix Computers and that Chen Guobang had risked his life to stay in the Soviet Union for several years.

Li Shangkui and the others didn't say anything, they just looked at Lu Shaohua, their eyes were a little empty, as if they were brought back to that period of time by Lu Shaohua's appearance...

But no matter what, that period of time has finally passed and has completely become a thing of the past. There is no need for Lu Shaohua to miss it anymore. He can only move forward, keep moving forward, whether in action or thought, he must look forward.

Lu Shaohua was also ready. After putting aside all distractions, Lu Shaohua walked into the production base of Phoenix Computer, and then looked left and right, as if he didn't want to miss any corner and wanted to take a careful look at the production base of Phoenix Computer.

The Phoenix Computer production base is different from other production bases. The distribution of Phoenix Computer is very strict. Now the 30-story production base is divided into five parts, namely the production of CPUs, motherboards, hard drives, memory sticks, and chassis.

Among these five parts, the one that occupies the most floors in the building is the production of motherboards. The production of motherboards alone occupies a full twelve floors of the building. From the first floor to the twelfth floor, all are included in the motherboard production base.

In addition, there is another distribution. The motherboard has more than one component. There is the circuit chip with the outer shell, resistors, capacitors, graphics card, network card, USB port, memory port, sound card, and other miscellaneous parts that need to be integrated together.

Every place is allocated, some are shared by one floor, and some occupy the space of the second floor.

Lu Shaohua was not frightened by such a messy distribution. Instead, he walked through every place with great interest. Sometimes he would stop to take a closer look and chat with the employees inside, fulfilling the obligations that a boss must fulfill.

However, this treatment is only available to employees of Phoenix Electric and its production bases. In other production bases, Lu Shaohua will not chat with employees. Even if they are some senior engineers, Lu Shaohua will at most just listen to his introduction and nod, and basically remain silent.

There is no way. Phoenix Computer occupies too huge a proportion in Lu Shaohua's heart, and it is not Lu Shaohua's fault that he cares so much about it.

At the same time, time passed quietly. Soon, it was past three o'clock in the afternoon. Lu Shaohua didn't have much time left, no more than an hour and a half, and he had to go back.

Looking at the time, Lu Shaohua had to speed up his pace and stopped talking to the employees to understand the situation. Instead, he chose to just watch and not ask questions and pass by.

The status quo was maintained until the thirteenth floor, when Lu Shaohua stopped. This was a boundary, a boundary that left the motherboard production base and entered the hard disk production base.

The hard drive production base is relatively simple, occupying only three floors, and all operations are done on assembly lines, which doesn't keep the employees too busy.

When it comes to hard drives, Lu Shaohua only cares about one thing: the rotation speed.

The speed of the hard disk is very important, which will affect the reading and writing speed of the computer at work. If the reading and writing speed is not fast, it will greatly reduce the working efficiency of the computer. When Lu Shaohua stepped into the hard disk production base, he also specifically asked Chu Lei about this issue.

Although Chu Lei is not a technical manager, he has been in the base for a long time after all. He knows a little about technical matters and can answer them.

The result satisfied Lu Shaohua, so he sped up his pace, skipped the hard disk production base, and went directly up to inspect the CPU production base, the memory production base, and finally the chassis production base.

It was all the same. Lu Shaohua was satisfied with everything, with a smile on his face. He led a group of people back along the same route, returned to the starting point, and returned to the gate of the Phoenix Computer production base. He inspected the Phoenix Computers with satisfaction and inspected the entire Phoenix base.

Standing at the door, Lu Shaohua didn't care that it was getting dark. He stared at the whole building for a while, his brain working at high speed, trying to determine a general development direction for Phoenix Computer.

What is the general direction?
