Start by trimming cow hooves

Some businessmen have a strong desire to control and like to enjoy the feeling of being in complete control of the entire company. They have to personally deal with everything, no matter how big or small it is.

Suri is different.

Ever since he was still wearing diapers, he knew exactly where his advantages lay. Compared with trivial matters, he only needed to be a good captain and control the overall situation.

As for the specific operation and management, the professional managers hired with money are far more capable than Suri. Even if he spends a lot of time and energy to take charge personally, he may not be able to do better than them.

So today is really just a visit.

While understanding the progress of the project, help identify and fill in the gaps.

The Shanghai S Electric Vehicle Super Factory covers a total area of ​​1 million square meters and has workshops for painting, final assembly, power battery, and motor assembly, plus a separate R\u0026D center.

Limited by sales volume, production capacity is far from being fully released. There is still a large area of ​​vacant land in the factory. The automation rate on the production line far exceeds that of other traditional car brands. With the cooperation of trained workers, a car can be produced. Another new car.

It seems that they are busy, but in fact, they are losing money on each sale, and there is still a long way to go before turning losses into profits. It is expected that there will be no hope of achieving break-even in the next five years.

In the Shanghai stock market in early December, the weather was so cold that my feet froze.

Su Rui carefully watched the entire assembly process of an S-Car 8, starting from the beginning of the assembly workshop.

After asking the engineer, he learned that after using integrated die-casting technology, the weight of the car body assembly was reduced by about 9%, and the manufacturing cost was reduced by about 35%.

The reduction in the total weight of the car means it helps save energy. The disadvantage is that once the car is damaged in a collision, the repair cost will be much higher than that of other vehicles. Overall, it is very friendly to car companies, but insurance companies will not be happy.

The R\u0026D center is currently developing the next generation of super charging piles and intelligent driving seat technology. There are more than 100 R\u0026D projects in progress, large and small.

As for the planned SUV, it is arranged to be developed in Silicon Valley. After all, the employees already have experience in developing the S-Car 8. It is nothing more than changing the shape and upgrading and improving some technologies. It is expected to be released in the third quarter of next year.

More than ten kilometers away from the Gigafactory, there is a BuyMe super logistics and warehousing center that is still under construction. Most of the packages ordered by American users are sorted and packaged here, and then shipped through air or sea channels. to Los Angeles and then delivered to buyers.

Part of the logistics sorting work was directly outsourced by Suri to Shunfeng Express.

When Suri came to visit while dozing off, he saw trucks one after another, pulling containers to the parking lot. Recently, there were an average of about 398,000 packages to be processed every day.

Because the supply of goods is limited by transportation, warehousing and other aspects, the BuyMe platform actually does not spend much money on publicity and promotion, but word of mouth spreads spontaneously among consumers, and the increase in order volume is quite optimistic.

There is a huge difference between learning about the latest progress of these projects through documents and on-site inspections.

For example, the continuous flow of packages on the assembly line and the automated sorting and packaging intelligent system are very interesting to Su Rui. According to the person in charge, they are still optimizing this intelligent system to greatly shorten the order processing time and further reduce the cost. cost.

It was 4:35 pm in the blink of an eye.

Gu Mina sent a message saying that they had just finished filming the MV and wanted to ask Suri to have dinner.

It was already midnight in Los Angeles time, and Suri was really sleepy, but thinking of Gu Mina and her beautiful teammates, he still managed to stay energetic and arranged his meal at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel on the Bund.

On the way back to the Bund, he took the opportunity to take a nap. After parking the car, he was still fast asleep, not even knowing how he got back.

Gu Mina's side.

As the team leader, she went to the Shanghai Arts and Crafts Museum with Yang Cai, Pang Di and the others in the morning to use the venue to shoot the new song MV.

After getting the reply of tonight's dinner date, several people hurriedly started to clean themselves up, touch up their makeup and change clothes, trying to appear in the best condition in front of Suri.

As a lightbulb, Miss Yang Cai had accompanied Su Rui and Gu Meina to Europe. After learning the news, she was relatively calm. However, the young Fatty and Li Shuixin were extremely nervous.

After all, the person they want to meet is Suri, their immediate boss.

Even leaving aside his worth of hundreds of billions of yuan and his status as a pop star, just by leaving a deep impression on Suri, he has the opportunity to receive countless resources, which is enough for Yang Cai, Pang Di, The three team members, Li Shuixin, forgot about the fatigue of the past few days and worked hard to take tonight's dinner seriously.

As for Gu Mina, her relationship is different, and she is only happy to have another chance to have a tryst with Suri.

Miss Yang Cai is not the kind of girl who has no brains.

She never mentioned the fact that she had accompanied Suri on a trip, especially after being roped into the group, and even helped Gu Mina to cover up.

Even Li Shuixin and Pang Di, who were members of the group, did not know the relationship between Gu Meina and Suri. They just assumed that the two met by chance and never suspected that there was something fishy between them.

Mainly because of the huge identity gap, the targets of scandals with Suri are usually world-renowned Hollywood beauties.

Waldorf Astoria Hotel on the Bund, in a spacious box with a view of the night view of Lujiazui.

The time quietly passed the agreed 7 p.m. Gu Meina and others just thought that Su Rui was delayed because of something and had no intention of urging him.

Tonight, 21-year-old Li Shuixin wore a black dress, revealing her slender swan neck.

She has been studying opera since she was a child and has been an actress for several years, but has never achieved any fame. Some time ago, she received an unexpected invitation from Jinghua Media Agency and was lured to join this girl group by the signing bonus.

Unexpectedly, filming has never been popular. Not long after starting as a member of a girl group, she has gained the love of a large number of fans, and the number of Weibo fans has been rising steadily.

Seeing that Suri hadn't come yet, the atmosphere in the private room was a bit dull. Li Shuixin had nothing to say at the moment, so she asked Gu Meina:

"Mina, you were the first to sign with Jinghua Media, and you also met Su Rui in person. What kind of person is he? I'm worried that I might say the wrong thing later, but people online say he has a very good temper."

The first thing that popped into Gu Mina's mind was some dirty impressions of small trains.

Seeing Fatty and Li Shuixin looking at her eagerly, she waved and told:

"It doesn't matter. He is a very gentleman and has a really good temper. Even though Su Rui is so famous, talented and powerful, he is actually not much older than us. He is completely different from the rich people in my impression. As a friend Just get along.”

Pang Di, who just went to college, is now very good-looking but still has no aura. She said:

"How can a genius who can earn tens of billions of dollars in a few years be so simple?"

The words are not finished yet.

The box door was pushed open, and Su Rui said with a smile on his face, but his voice sounded tired:

"I'm sorry, I've had a busy day today and I'm still suffering from jet lag. I accidentally fell asleep in the car. If I feel sleepy and doze off later, it's definitely not because you are not beautiful enough. In fact, the moment I just opened the door , I was almost blinded by you. Not only are the songs sweet, the people seem to be even sweeter.”

All right.

Fatty silently swallowed the rest of his words, and seemed to hear the sound of the mysterious halo breaking in his ears. (End of this chapter)
