Chapter 1242: The Prototype of Future Industry
If after seeing Zhongshan's new material factory, Wang Wei's heart was just shocked. Then, after seeing the next scene, he could no longer describe the shock in his heart in words.
At the suggestion of the ark, he chose the type of product he needed on the tablet, along with a range of parameters such as load, size, size, design style, etc., and then the two traveled by car to the dining room.
At lunchtime, when he followed the ship back to the factory, the drone prototype he had "customized” on the tablet had stopped in front of him.
Yes, that's the kind of machine that can fly.
Not even two hours later, the drone went from an "idea” to a reality. Had it not been for the world-renowned university standing beside him, he would have even been suspicious, which was actually already prepared by Sky Technologies, only to make such a fancy “customized program” for a shocking effect.
Watching Wang Wei, who had been completely stunned and stood there without a word, the ark laughed and looked at the unique logistics drone and explained.
“Byati's batteries, Dajiang's electric drives, Warwick's carbon core, Zhongshan's new material electrodes, blade materials… all the parts ordered complete the docking of resources in the backend of the Xinghai No. 1 server, delivered to the assembly center in the park through an automated logistics system, assembled by two pairs of industrial grade robotic arms. Aren't you surprised? ”
Wang Wei was silent for a while before nodding his head.
“… is quite surprising. ”
Don't be surprised.
He could not even imagine how this could have been accomplished in just two hours.
Even if Sky Technologies has enough iron relationships with major manufacturers and sends the best salespeople to negotiate and work together, it takes a lot of time to build the entire production chain from scratch to scratch.
In any case, this is not a task that can be accomplished in two hours.
Seeing the surprise on Wang Wei's face, the ark smiled slightly and said.
“I understand the surprise in your heart that, in fact, since the concept of industry was born, the effective allocation of resources and the interface of resources have been two major bottlenecks that constrain productivity development. ”
“In order to produce a box of canned milk, a milk factory must first identify its needs from the market and then, with its own industry experience or social ties, screen from the entire industrial system to the right canneries and pastures and sign contracts with them to form a simple industrial chain. ”
“This process we call resource docking. ”
“While it's simple to describe, in fact, there are a lot of hidden costs that we see and can't see in this section. For example, business owners' own relationships, management's demands for interests, even regulating regional policies, etc. Normally, we cannot determine whether an industrial chain is efficient or not, but can only be screened through the market to keep the relatively efficient part of it alive and the relatively inefficient part of it collapses. ”
“In such a model, we can ensure the maximum flow of social resources where they can be used as efficiently as possible. ”
“Then the question arises: why is a monopoly giant that operates both its own ranch and its own cannery, while also processing dairy products, often more competitive in the market than those that play a single link in the industrial chain alone? ”
Wang Wei didn't think long after hearing about the sudden throwing of this issue by the Ark.
In fact, the answer is obvious.
“Because they are able to control the cost of each production chain and complete the docking of production resources within the enterprise, minimising this part of the cost. The longer the entire industrial chain, the more links they monopolize, the more efficient they are in theory. ”
The ark nodded with a smile.
“That's basically it. ”
“In fact, the biggest improvement in the smart industry relative to traditional industries is here. Anything that involves manual participation is uncertain and inefficient, including the docking of resources. ”
“Therefore, we use AI instead of labor to efficiently configure this part of the resource. ”
“Two years ago, Jinling High-tech Park played this big game to create an intelligent manufacturing system. By creating an independent quality standards system that assigns production tasks to each production unit incorporated within the system through computers, AI builds the entire industrial chain, not labor. ”
“The first to use this system was the Xiangrui Sky Shuttle, and many people were confused at the time as to why we were able to build a Sky Shuttle without a factory. ”
“In fact, we didn't build the plane at all, just assembled it in our equipment center. And the parts that are needed for assembly are automatically assigned by the computer to a factory that can complete it, through a standardized order. We decided in one day what to produce, and the next day the industrial machines started working for our needs. ”
Watching the color of shock on his face get stronger and stronger Wang Wei said with a smile.
“I want to give this drone as a gift to President Wang. ”
“I wonder if Wang always minds.? ”
“How can you care? ”
From the shock gradually came back to God. Wang Wei looked at the Ark and said with a solemn expression on his face, "This precious gift, I accept it on behalf of Shunfeng Group! ”
……
After returning from Jinling to Shenzhen City, Wang Wei has been thinking for several days.
Everything he saw that day during his visit to Jinling High-tech Park shook him deeply.
It wasn't until that moment that he really felt that the whole Jinling Happy Technology Park was really strong.
Starsea One is like a brain.
The brain has established a set of production standards and has incorporated every factory that meets them into the production system called "Smart Industry”.
Under the control of this brain, every factory in the park that is integrated into this intelligent system is like a muscle cell connected by a complete network of nervous systems.
While there is no equity linkage, and they are not affiliated with a unified group, the overall power they erupt is sufficient to rival any monopoly giant in the world in terms of efficiency and cost.
Somehow, Wang Wei's heart suddenly had a strange association.
Perhaps in the near future, everyone can start a factory.
Of course, this factory may not exist at all, it's just an abstract concept.
An ordinary person, with basic design knowledge, can build a product that meets their needs by assembling standardized parts through DIY customization. As if it were an input parameter to a 3D printer, the whole intelligent industry system is like a massive 3D printer, serving an entire society.
Everything is done throughout the intelligent manufacturing network, without the need for a grinding process, and all individuals operate in an efficient and transparent system that seamlessly docks production capacity with demand.
A prototype of the future industry seems to be taking shape.
If it really grows and moves towards maturity, perhaps it is not just the middlemen that are being wiped out, but also the creativity of people that will be completely liberated… not just in the hands of a few big capitalists.
The labour force will become cheaper, knowledge and creativity will become more valuable, and all the needs of society will be met with precision from this "wishing machine”, as well as more.
Although these things have nothing to do with his smooth wind group at the moment, Wang Wei's thoughts have been revitalized.
Though he has seen the prototype of this future industrial system, at present it does not appear that astral technology has been docked to individual users, only to achieve docking between factories and factories in the park.
His smooth wind group is strong in the logistics sector and can fill this market gap by docking the intelligent manufacturing system with users.
Thinking about it, he couldn't help but breathe a little faster.
Just like a gold mine, right in front of him...
As soon as he returned to the group, he found the group's vice president and ordered him to say.
“Contact the people at Sky Technologies right away, the intelligent logistics network thing, and I'm going to pack them up and do it. ”
The vice president said, "Don't we have a meeting to discuss? ”
Wang Weisheng said: “I will persuade the board. Just do as I say. ”
“… but cooperation with New Science and Intelligence. ”
“Cooperation with Star Sky Technology is even more important," a slight tangle flashed on his face, but Wang Wei made a decision, "As for the new science and technology company... pay them the liquidated damages. ”
