Chapter 415 A single move affects the whole body
There is more than a month left, and the New Year is coming. Not only the country, but also the entire area influenced by Han culture is preparing for the New Year, which is also the most consumer-friendly place in the country. When you are strong.
Not only the sales of New Year-related products are soaring, but also the sales of various electronic and electrical appliances are also soaring.
Countless families have been busy all year just for this New Year and have earned a year's salary. It is only at this time that they are willing to spend it to buy New Year's goods.
The Chinese New Year is still very lively now, but in a few years, there will be scenes of rebellion against Tiangang. The Chinese New Year flavor has gradually faded, but in America, old Europe, the Middle East and other places, it is Various Spring Festival activities have taken off, and even churches have begun to post couplets...
Yuhe Leisure Resort is basically full now, especially with the addition of some simple go-karts, merry-go-rounds, trampolines, rotating slides and other facilities. It is basically the same level as the playground in the mall in the previous life, but it is still crowded with people. Li Dongling has gone there now, and he probably doesn't have a place to stay.
Not only in Hanxi Province, but also in the surrounding provinces and cities near Hanxi, there are many people who come here with their families to join in the fun. In fact, this is because the domestic entertainment facilities are still relatively scarce. For this reason, Yuhe Leisure Resort is fully booked.
Dongli Hi-tech is also very busy now, and is constantly preparing for the Spring Festival. In fact, nearly two months into the Spring Festival, PHS mobile phone sales, which had entered a stable period, have begun to have strong shipments again. increase.
Just like in the previous life, during the Spring Festival every year, the sales of domestic real estate, cars and other bulk commodities surged, and a large part of them were purchased by people returning home.
Countless people are outside, working hard for a year as cows and horses, but they can’t go back to their hometown. They have also lost their status in front of relatives and friends in their hometown, so they have to bring something back with them...
< br>
Now, real estate and cars have not yet risen, but this does not mean that this kind of purchasing power has disappeared. Instead, it has become the bulk commodities of this era such as mobile phones, computers, large color TVs, refrigerators, washing machines, motorcycles, etc. Sales volume Start growing!
Among them, PHS has become the representative of mobile phones, and domestic sales have soared, forcing Donglin Hi-Tech's production department to continue to increase production capacity.
During the Chinese New Year this year, it is estimated that the production department of Tanglin Hi-Tech will have to work overtime for production. It is hard to say how employees of other companies have attitudes towards overtime, but the staff of Tanglin Hi-Tech's production department have no attitude towards overtime. There is no resistance, and many people with tight family backgrounds even look forward to working overtime.
During the Chinese New Year, there are no employees on vacation at Tanglin Hi-Tech, and they will receive double wages at work. In addition, there are various allowances, which are almost equivalent to 2.5 times the wages. There will also be paid compensatory leave after the year, so sign up This year's list of overtime workers, from the Tanglin High-tech Production Department, will be completed soon.
When Li Dongling came to the technology department, all the project teams in the technology department were still busy. Because of Li Dongling's attention, the technology department became the most important department of Dongling Hi-Tech.
"Mr. Li!"
Seeing Li Dongling's arrival, Chen Tao, Luo Zheng and other directors of Dongling's high-tech department rushed over.
Li Dongling went around all the major project teams of Dongling High-tech Technology Department. Li Dongling came this time not only to check the progress of the technology department's projects, but also to express his importance to the technology department as usual.
Different from other companies, Tanglin Hi-Tech is a company dominated by engineers. In fact, the entire Tanglin Hi-Tech operates around the technical department, using technology to promote the progress of Tanglin Hi-Tech. This is Donglin Hi-Tech. The biggest difference between Hi-Tech and other companies.
The current technical department of Donglin Hi-Tech is mainly divided into digital cordless phone R&D department, computer peripheral R&D department, communication technology R&D department, mobile phone R&D department and an innovation R&D department.
Digital cordless phones are the most stable cash cow of Donglin High-tech. The R&D department is constantly working on cordless phones.
The Computer Peripheral Department is responsible for the research and development of mice, keyboards, headphones, data cables, routers, cameras and other computer-related equipment. Currently, it has launched mice and keyboards with the Silver Sable brand, and the response is pretty good.
What Li Dongling came to see today was mainly about the remaining three R&D project groups, mobile phones, communication technology and innovation R&D departments, electronic dictionaries, repeaters, and future new products of Dongling Hi-Tech, all of which will be managed by The Innovation and R&D Department handles R&D.
"The technical department needs to recruit another group of personnel. The technical department has really not enough manpower!"
As soon as he entered the office, Chen Tao couldn't help but complain to Li Dongling, That's why Li Dongling brought Su Chicheng, his assistant, here today. If Huxian, who was in charge of Dongling Hi-Tech's money bag, was present, Chen Tao probably wouldn't dare to ask for someone so openly.
Now the engineers in the technology department, whether they are junior, intermediate or senior engineers, add up to more than 2,100 people. It is already the company with the largest R&D personnel in the domestic technology industry!
If the Hanxi Joint Laboratory is also counted as outside staff of the Dongling High-tech Technology Department, then the size of the personnel in the Technology Department will expand a lot.
The junior engineer is the position he held when he first joined the technology department, with a starting salary of 1,500 yuan. After passing the review and officially joining the job, he becomes an intermediate engineer, with a starting salary of 4,000 yuan. This is also the core of Dongling High-tech Technology The current main R&D personnel of the department.
The number of senior engineers is much smaller, and their salary is more than 10,000 yuan. They are mainly responsible for helping the technical department overcome difficulties. At critical moments, they must be relied on to solve problems.
Further up, there are some technical experts, mainly academicians recruited by Tangling High-tech. Some of these people were invited by Tangling High-tech itself, and some were Ni Guangnan, Huang Lingyi, and Fang Zheng Introduced by Academician Wang. Some of these academicians are just in name only, and some are actually employed by Tanglin High-tech. They have the right to form their own R&D teams and can use the resources and funds of Tanglin High-tech's technical department for research and development.
When some projects of Dongling High-tech encountered difficulties, they relied on the help of these academicians to come to the research institute for help, as well as industry experts, etc. This is not simply measured by technology. Sometimes they can even It affects the policy formulation of certain industries. For Tanglin High-tech, the more these academicians the better.
If you have to make an analogy, it is equivalent to if you are unlucky and buy an unfinished building, and if there is a suite in it, it belongs to an academician, then don’t worry, this building The building can definitely be resumed and rebuilt. Someone from the local city government or even the provincial government will come over to express condolences...
Now the technical department is the gold-eating beast of Tanglin Hi-Tech. Not counting bonuses, subsidies, etc., every day The total salary paid to technical staff by Moonlight is much more than the revenue of some small companies in several years.
"Nowadays, several major R&D project teams have very heavy tasks. The Communications Technology Department develops baseband, 2G, and 3G technologies. The mobile phone department has an even heavier task. It needs to develop the second-generation PHS mobile phone and also needs to develop The 2G mobile phone project, coupled with the electronic dictionary and repeater projects of the Innovation and R&D Department, there are really not enough manpower! ”
Chen Tao complained bitterly that it seemed that there were many people in the technical department, but in fact they were scattered among various project teams, so there really weren’t that many people.
Not to mention, the Tangling High-tech Technology Department regularly sends some technical personnel to the Tangling High-tech Production Department to upgrade the production lines.
Technical personnel will also be dispatched to various supplier companies in the Tangling Hi-Tech industry chain to provide technical guidance and supervision to ensure product quality.
In fact, major manufacturers such as Nokia, Apple, and Chrysanthemum Factory in the past were also famous for their strict quality control. They sent engineers to various parts supplier companies all year round to provide technical guidance on the one hand. , allowing suppliers to provide technical guidance and upgrades, and on the other hand, supervision.
For example, the automobile manufacturers that Juhua Factory cooperates with are busy until three o'clock in the evening when testing products at the parts supplier company, and then go to the site at eight o'clock the next day to continue testing, and the plan is revised around the clock. Continue testing, over and over again, until the plan is passed and the test is passed.
During the Steve Jobs era, Apple was very strict about the quality control of its supply chain. Even becoming a supplier to the fruit chain would become a selling point that those companies were proud of for their external publicity. Being an Apple supplier would make it much easier to go public. Every time Apple releases a new product, the stock prices of many suppliers skyrocket.
But when Apple started to use Asan’s supply chain, things began to become unpredictable. E. coli was found in the camera that exceeded the standard ten times. In comparison, what other lenses had Dust, screen burn, etc. are nothing.
But to Asan, this thing is really nothing. After all, the eye drops manufactured for America can contain Pseudomonas aeruginosa...
Major components Suppliers are both excited and worried about the orders from Apple and Chrysanthemum Factory. They are excited because as long as these orders are completed, there will be no shortage of orders in the future. But they are worried about whether the order can be completed. question.
The quality control of Donglin Hi-tech's products will not immediately reach the point where Nokia mobile phones can stop bullets in the previous life, but it cannot be said that it is too crotch-stretching.
The size of Donglin Hi-Tech's technical staff seems to be quite large, but compared with the scale of R&D personnel of overseas giants such as Toshiba and IBM, the scale of Donglin Hi-Tech's technical department is a bit "shabby".
For example, IBM is cooperating with Shenzhou U Disk. Not counting IBM's other R&D departments such as computers, semiconductors, and software, the IBM hard disk department alone has more than 18,000 employees worldwide. That group of overseas technology You can imagine how big the giant's research and development scale is.
R&D is really all done by burning money. There is no exception. When the money can no longer be burned, that is when the technology is surpassed by other companies!
Listening to Chen Tao's complaints, Li Dongling did not hesitate and said directly, "Next year's spring recruitment, the technology department can recruit another group of engineers, not only domestically, but also overseas.
In the future, if the personnel in the technical department want to study for master's degree, doctoral degree, or study abroad, the technical department can support it and bear the tuition fees, but after returning from study, they need to continue to fulfill the agreement with Donglin Hi-Tech! ”< br>
Regarding the investment in the technical department, whether it is research and development technology or recruitment of technical personnel, Li Dongling has given the technical department sufficient support, even at any cost to recruit talents.
Studying abroad is very attractive these days. As long as we can recruit talents and pay to send them to study abroad or study for Ph.D., Tanglin Hi-Tech can also afford it. This move can even attract overseas talents. It is very expensive to study for master's degree or doctoral degree overseas. There are many people who are still paying off their student loans more than ten years after graduation.
Texas Instruments, known as the Whampoa Military Academy for Semiconductors, also has a similar talent training system. In order to train talents, a lot of money can be spent. The founders of TSMC and SMIC are both at Texas Instruments. While working, I studied for a Ph.D., and after finishing my Ph.D., I returned to Texas Instruments to continue working.
After all, if the money is not spent on the technology department, you have to pay patent fees to other companies, and you may not be able to buy it. If you compare the two, you will know which one to choose. Again, with some money, If it is not used as military expenses, it must be used as compensation.
“What is the current status of baseband technology research and development?” Li Dongling asked Luo Zheng.
