Technological Hegemony

In the early morning, the meeting of Xingchen Science and Technology Supreme Management Bureau rarely broke out. The fierce discussion lasted from morning to noon, and soon the whole company spread.

"Have you heard? The bureau is noisy! An Anqi slaps the table straight, and the young President Cao and President Shen will not budge, and strive to be justified."

"Well, I heard that it is for the robot project, whether to go to market in batches."

"Why now? If it's controversial, shouldn't it have erupted early?"

"You do n’t know about it. It was not controversial before because the production conditions were not mature, but now, due to the crazy madness of the mechanical automation institute, the production costs have fallen sharply. Management The original plan of the bureau was directly messed up. They originally felt that it would take a long time for the robot project to be implemented, but because the mechanical mads were too powerful, it was a moment when they had to decide.

"That's the case, the guys in the machinery are really fast!"

"Too powerful! The guys at the mechanical institute actually disrupted the rhythm of the authority's bosses? Niubi! Mechanical mad monster Niubi!"

Straight men talked in the company forum. Xingchen Technology is a free-spirited company. As long as it does not violate the principle of seeking truth from facts, everyone has the right to express opinions.

At the moment in the forum, the opinion of supporting the immediate production of robots occupies the vast majority. After all, this group of steel straight men wants to play happily with robots. They almost want to go crazy. However, many people have suggested that robots will The consequences of society are serious, and I am afraid that many innocent people will lose their jobs.

"We have a social responsibility to us," said Enron Shen Sheng in the boardroom of the Authority. "Robots will be strictly controlled in our own factories. However, if we sell robots, those capitalists will Wouldn't robots be used to replace humans? The answer is obviously yes, it will definitely cause a large number of industrial workers to lose their jobs! "

Enron's worry is not unreasonable. Capital is born for exploitation. Once the robots are sold, the social turmoil will be too great. Therefore, Enron strongly disagrees with the sale of robots and is only willing to apply them to its own factory. in.

Shen Lang frowned, looked at the teacher Luo Jia who was sitting at the top, and looked at the opposite Enron. The voice calmly said: "When the steam engine was invented, people also protested, but later it turned out that no one Able to move against the times. "

"Now that the torrent of history has arrived today, what we need to do is not to block the future, but to open our arms and embrace it."

"Furthermore, robots are not only productivity but also lethal weapons. If they are sold to Western capital, the West will use robots to dig for themselves."

It seems that Shen Lang's logic is also very reasonable. Any change will be painful. Since it is unstoppable in the future, it should be embraced. Robots, as the ultimate productivity weapon, have a strategic significance comparable to nuclear strikes.

In short, the administration was divided into two factions. The Enron and Wen brothers felt that it was too early to promote robots. Shen Lang and Cao Yuan, two younger factions, held opposite views. The mature Li Moran did not express his position, but it seemed that he Also tends to promote robots.

The final decision is in the hands of Luo Jia, and he has been listening, but has not stated his position.

Uh ~

Finally, Luo Jia, who had been thinking, suddenly stood up, pulled the white board behind him, and quickly wrote on it.

"That's it ... we can do it like this!"

With more and more writing on the whiteboard, Enron suddenly stunned and exclaimed.

...

"Father, I want a winglet, please!"

Musk, who had just returned home, looked at his son's earnest look, bewildered and contemplative, and saw his son's finger on the laptop screen. The poster on the screen was clearly displayed. The Star Robotics Division, the first robot The product Star Wings will be officially released on April 15th!

Musk had mixed feelings for a while, he sat on the sofa, staring at the panoramic view of the Milky Way in the poster, and the whole team of robots, hesitated for a long time.

As the first robot in the history of mankind, with powerful and full-featured robot products, not only his son, but Musk himself also really wanted it. The only problem is that the manufacturer of the Star Wing comes from Star Technology, the most hated opponent in the Western world.

"Are these star wings the same as those building the space station?" Musk asked his son.

"There is still a difference." The son pointed to a small line below the poster. "The external version is for civilian use and cannot be used in military, precision manufacturing and other industries. In short, I think Xingchen Technology means that they want Xingzhi Wings to serve as a service tool. Not productivity tools. "

Musk nodded slightly, "I remember, Luo Jia once said in his interview program that robots will not steal human jobs. At least until social conditions are not mature, maintaining social stability is the most important thing."

"Luo Jia, Luo Jia, you deserve to be a shrewd businessman. This abacus is enough for a chicken thief."

The boy blinked and looked at his father in puzzlement.

Musk shook his head and pulled his son to his side. "The biggest gap between the East and the West lies in the social structure. As the largest manufacturing country on the planet, Huaxia has the largest number of workers in its population structure, while North America provides finance, technology, and services. Industry-based. "

"Finance and technology, listening to the tall, but can't accommodate too much labor. Take Apple, for example, the Apple company with a market value of more than one trillion US dollars has great prospects, but the engineers and scientific researchers they hire in North America can be countless. With more than 100,000 people, the rest are all service personnel, and Apple has millions of production teams in China. "

"Luo Jia has let robots enter the service industry. The biggest impact is us, and people in the service industry, such as waiters and cleaners in restaurants, have limited education. Once replaced, it will be difficult to find new jobs. In the future, Will be a potential factor in social unrest. "

The son showed a puzzled expression, "But in a country as large as China, even if the service industry accounts for a small proportion, there are always hundreds of millions of people. I can't imagine how hundreds of millions of service industry employees would be laid off, and how big it would be for China. Shock. "

"You're thinking about love now," Musk said with emotion, touching his son's head with his hand. "However, you have forgotten another thing. In the past 20 years, Huaxia has actually lacked workers. When the workers' reports are frequently seen in newspapers, Foxconn Zhengzhou even has to set targets for townships and assign recruitment tasks. "

"Do you think Vietnam, Cambodia, Bangladesh and other countries have taken on so many garment factories and textile factories that were originally in Huaxia because they are very powerful?"

"No, it is only because Huaxia wants to build motors, cars, and more valuable mechanical and electrical products, so it has given lower-level technologies such as clothing and textiles to Southeast Asian countries."

When the son listened, he suddenly realized his expression, "Father, I see!"

"What the service industry needs is attitude. The technical content is not high. Once Huaxia uses robots to complete the replacement of the service industry, it will be a huge improvement. I often see in forums that the same is an East Asian country. However, there is a huge gap between the industry and the neon service industry. Is it because the scenery in China is not as good as the neon scenery? "

"No, from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau to the magnificent scenery of the southeast coast, from Changan to Beijing, the history and humanities of 5,000 years, Huaxia belongs to the need for natural scenery and natural scenery, the existence of human landscape and human landscape, coupled with the vast territory, Abundant tourism resources are enough to hit the world! "

"However, in 2019, China ’s tourism industry has created an unprecedented super trade deficit of up to two trillion yuan! This is a unique phenomenon. To put it bluntly, China ’s tourism industry is unbearable and has been hit by the world. Degree!"

"Behind all this, the reason is that the service quality of Huaxia's tourism industry is really bad. Not only are foreign tourists unwilling to travel to Huaxia, but even Huaxia themselves vote with their feet, and they would rather go far and go to the neon surroundings, South Korea. , Thailand is also reluctant to be abducted by major attractions in the country. "

"Assuming that Xingchen Technology really uses robots to replace tourism service personnel and improve the quality of services to a level close to or even beyond that of neon, it will drive the development of a huge tourism industry."

"Good analysis, I know how to compare to others. It is indeed my son!" Musk shrugged. "That's why I say Luo Jia is a very chicken thief. The robot project has been released, which has improved Huaxia's weaknesses and hit our strengths. As for the problem of laid-off workers in the service industry, we can give back all the textiles, clothing, electrical and mechanical equipment to Southeast Asia. "

"This practice not only weakens our opponents, but also expands our own economic scale. It is really a good means and a good calculation."

The son was slightly puzzled. "Although the textile and apparel industry involves tens of millions of jobs, the scale is huge, but countries such as Vietnam are not vegetarian. Their workers' wage requirements are lower than China's, and they are under cost considerations. Uniqlo, ZARA, NIKE, etc. It's impossible for a similar international footwear giant to move the factory back to Huaxia, right? "

Hahaha ~

Musk sneered, "Move back? You are too underestimated Luo Jia, maybe, this time next year, there will be no Uniqlo in the world."

The son opened his eyes wide and couldn't believe what his father said. The shoe and clothing industry has always been the world ’s giant. The world ’s largest suit foundry is called Dayang Creation. They can even make tens of thousands of Italian products. Technical content The world's number one, but its own brand is doing poorly.

To what extent did Dayang Creations remain silent?

Ninety-nine percent of Chinese people have never heard of this company.

The same is true for footwear. Those coconuts and AJs that have been fried for thousands of pairs, UU reads www.uukanshu. A considerable part of the com comes from the Huaxia foundry. Anyone who has a little research on shoes knows that any AJ made in Vietnam or Cambodia has a poor quality. The really good clothes are Huaxia goods.

But how about that? Huaxia does not have any real clothing giants. It is located at the bottom of the entire industrial chain. From the perspective of industry voice, those international giants do not agree that it is impossible for clothing companies to move back to China.

Musk turned his eyes out of the window and said lightly: "You may have forgotten that during the construction of the space elevator by Star Technology, nano-material technology was invented, and the cloth with nano characteristics is anti-fouling and waterproof. With only a thin layer of shirt, it can withstand the cold currents of -30 degrees below zero in Siberia. The building materials supported by nanotechnology can build the building as high as the Himalayas. "

"The way to sweep the tertiary industry with robots, reshuffle the secondary industry with new material technology, and maintain the highest national unemployment is not to ban the use of robots, but to create more jobs! Take back from other countries! The first, second, and tertiary industries will all be killed! This is Luo Jia's real abacus. "

The son opened his mouth wide, his eyes full of horror, and his voice was slightly hoarse: "So it is, they, they are so cruel!"
