Chapter 164: New Projects, New Ideas
The news of the successful trial production of silicon transistors brought from Beidu gave Xu Guo a good start. With this as the foundation, he can gain a foothold in this industry as a basic component manufacturer in the semiconductor industry.
Of course, Xu Guo was not satisfied with just being a basic component manufacturer. In the 1950s, although there were not many types of electronic products, there were actually quite a few types.
Although the current big-head radio has cooperated with the Lou family and Xu Guo is not good at participating in it, Xu Guo can still consider products such as TVs, video recorders, audio recorders, and bp machines.
Among these products, Xu Guo valued the most the recorder. Because compared to TVs, video recorders and bp machines, this product is the simplest and most practical.
And in this era, the most important invention related to a recorder, that classic cassette tape has not been born yet, at least Xu Guo has not seen it on the market.
In fact, at this time, there was a cassette tape, e Eash put a five-inch tape into a plastic box and invented a cassette recorder.
However, this kind of tape is too big and is not as convenient as a record player, so it is not common on the market. Most families actually use record machines.
Another important reason is that before Xu Guo traveled through time, he had a deep impression of the cassette tapes at that time.
Although you cannot be said to be well aware of its structure, at least you know its general structure.
If you have any doubts about this, try asking a few people who have passed through that era and have not turned the tape with a pencil.
Since I thought about it, of course I had to do it right away. As soon as I went there, I found a few teachers at Xiangjiang University who were willing to work part-time and asked them to design cassette tape recorders and cassette tapes according to their requirements.
Because he had worked with Xiangjiang University before, Xu Guo also had several professor-level people working specifically for him in his laboratory.
So Xu Guo mentioned to Professor Zeng Xinghai that he soon helped him find several teachers who were very experienced in this area in school.
As for the specific production and operation of this product, Xu Guo placed it in the electronics factory that manufactures Wang's computers. As for the specific person responsible for operating this project, of course, Gui Yongxian is responsible for it.
"Yongxian, the effect of the recorder I arranged this time is very important. I hope to make it our flagship product in the next twenty years, so remember to keep an eye on the R&D side.
Now I have already told the teachers I invited about the relevant R&D requirements, and the rest is to spend time doing specific designs.
I'll let you keep an eye on it, mainly because you must apply for a patent immediately once any results appear there.
Whether we can rely on this product for 20 years in the future depends entirely on whether our patent application is thorough or not."
After listening to Xu Guo’s request, Gui Yong first planned it in his heart, thinking that there was no problem, but some things still had to be explained clearly in advance.
"I will definitely focus on what you arranged by you, but if you want to produce a recorder in the future, the current venue will not be enough, and you need to prepare in advance.
In addition, should the technical workers required for production start training in advance? At present, we are not many workers responsible for welding and assembly for Wang's computer OEM workers, except for the female workers who are responsible for making magnetic cores."
The fundamental purpose behind what Gui Yongxian mentioned is to Xu Guo make more investment in the factory.
Because the electronics factory has not been operating for a long time since its establishment and has not made much profit on the books, it is impossible to expand its production scope by relying on its own accumulation.
Of course, in addition to the main reason why the business time is not too long, another reason is that in order to obtain OEM orders from Wang's Computer Company, the electronics factory has a very low profit.
The reason for adopting this strategy is entirely because the policy set by Xu Guo at the beginning of his business was to squeeze into the market at a low price.
Although the profits are small, as long as the workers' team can be cultivated in the early stage and there are a large number of skilled workers on hand, in the future, you will be able to receive more OEM orders from Europe and the United States in this industry.
As for the object he refers to, of course, it is a certain electronics factory in later generations.
"I know all of what you said. Make a plan based on the situation and consider the funding needs more carefully. Then I will show you the details. I will make additional capital injections for you according to the specific needs."
With Xu Guo’s commitment to inject capital, Gui Yongxian is more confident in expanding the scope of the factory. At the same time, he also feels that the factory he runs, with his own products in the future, the profit margin can finally be increased.
After arranging the electronics factory, Xu Guo was considering whether to add another batch of equipment to Yameijian based on the production process given in Beidu now.
In the villa that Xu Guo bought with his relationship in the wealthy area of Banshan, Xiangjiang for the wedding, Xu Guo discussed the important matter with the hostess of this family for the first time.
"Xiao'e, I'm planning to go to Yameijian recently and buy some machinery and equipment. Do you think you want to go with me?"
Listening to this, Lou Xiaoe was a little angry.
"Why do I go with you when the time comes, and you will ask another woman to take care of me?!"
Listening to Lou Xiao'e saying this, Xiang Chunyan didn't say a word and buried her head in her meal.
Although she actually wanted to go back to the silence, after all, she hadn't seen her mother and younger brothers and sisters for a long time, and now she missed her very much, but when she heard Lou Xiao'e responding, she could only pretend that she didn't know anything so that the war would burn her.
"Do you really think I am such a casual person? Some things depend on fate, and I have not reached the point of seeing each other and loving each other.
Let me tell you this, this matter is really important this time. After the equipment is purchased, we can produce transistors ourselves.
At that time, your brother's radio factory can completely use the transistors we produce ourselves, and the production cost can be reduced a lot."
When Lou Xiaoe heard her husband talk about her brother's side, she no longer got angry. After all, the matter was over, and it would be useless for her to make trouble.
What Xu Guo mentioned now is related to his brother, and she thinks it is better to ask this matter clearly first.
"You mean that after we buy the equipment, we can produce it ourselves?"
Because Lou Xiaoe likes art and is not interested in industrial production, she doesn't know much about Xu Guo's search for someone to study silicon transistors.
Xu Guo did not specifically say that the silicon transistor was successfully produced before, so she was not clear about it.
"If that's not the case, why should I hurry over and buy equipment?"
After her questions were confirmed, Lou Xiaoe's thoughts changed and a very good idea came up.
She didn't plan to go again with Yameijian. Although her relationship with Xiang Chunyan is barely good now, it made her feel uncomfortable there, so she didn't want to go.
But she was worried that she would let her husband fly alone like this. If she would get a few more at home, she would feel even more uncomfortable.
Thinking that her brother had studied in the United Kingdom of Great Britain, it was fine to go to Meilijian. In addition to helping her watch over her husband, she might be able to find a few good projects there at that time, so she said.
"If this is the case, why don't my brother go there with you? After all, this matter is very important. You can have more time to talk about related matters on the way."
Xu Guo knew what he was thinking at the first time he heard it. He had something to talk about with his brother-in-law. On the day of his marriage, he didn't give him any good face.
If it weren't for the marriage between him and Lou Xiao'e, both parents had decided that he might be the first to object.
Now seeing his wife arranges her brother-in-law to monitor him, Xu Guo actually wants to tell Lou Xiaoe that he is not as fickle as he imagined, and he still has some requirements for women.
But does he dare to say this? Forget about family harmony, Xu Guo "happily" accepted the advice given by Lou Xiao'e.
"Your idea is really good. Why don't you go and discuss it with my brother-in-law to see when he is free."
Xu Guo didn't want to take the initiative to discuss with his brother-in-law Lou Xuanda. Since it was Lou Xiao'e's arrangement, let her go.
After saying this, Xu Guo turned around and asked Xiang Chunyan.
"Do you need to bring something to your parents' home?"
When Xiang Chunyan heard her husband ask this, she actually wanted to say that she also wanted to follow her back, but after thinking about it, she still held back.
"I haven't thought about it for a while, why don't I think about it first and tell you later."
After dinner, Lou Xiao'e ran to call immediately, and Xiang Chunyan only pulled Xu Guo aside and said.
"Husband, why don't you tell your parents, I'd better take advantage of my stomach and wait for delivery."
Xu Guo was a little surprised when he heard his woman say this. He couldn't think of why Xiang Chunyan made such a decision, so he asked.
"Dear, what's wrong with you? Someone at home has you been wronged?"
Considering that Xiang Chunyan was pregnant with her first child, her parents would almost treat her as a daughter-in-law for the sake of her grandson, so the pressure should not come from there, so they could only consider it because of Lou Xiao'e, of course he would not say it out directly.
Who knew that the answer given by Xiang Chunyan was completely beyond Xu Guo's expectations.
"No, my family is actually very nice to me.
The reason I think so is entirely because the home you give me in the future is the home you give me.
My children and I will live there for a long time in the future, and even the children's children will live there for a long time.
So I want to have a baby there, because then, after the child is born, you can get the birth paper of the teeth, which will be much more convenient no matter what you do in the future.”
After hearing Xiang Chunyan say this, Xu Guo felt even more that she had such a clear understanding of her status in this family. When she asked her to go back at this time, she probably wouldn't go back to Xiangjiang again as long as it was not her special request in the future.
Taking this into consideration, Xu Guo thought about it and finally agreed.
Sometimes, the blessings of Qi people are not so easy to think about. Even if Lou Xiaoe is gentle and Xiang Chunyan swallows her anger, after so many days of running-in at home, the atmosphere still feels that it is not very right.
Xu Guo was thinking that maybe he was too anxious at the beginning. If he reversed the order and slowed down the steps, it might be much better.
Now that's the case, I'll follow my concubine. At least she can live more comfortably on Yameijian.
After agreeing to Xiang Chunyan's request, Xu Guo had to work for his parents under tremendous pressure to make them agree to the arrangement.
Of course, after the child is older, he still has to take him back to Xiangjiang for a while during holidays every year.
Perhaps because Xu Guo has gone to his wife now, Xu Guo’s parents finally agreed, but they did not say that Xiang Chunyan could follow her back to her.
"Your concubine can go back, but it must be after Lou Xiaoe gets pregnant."
After hearing this request from his parents, Xu Guo felt sweaty.
Because of the fact that she was attracted to Xiang Chunyan's heart, Xu Guo quickly got pregnant, and the two of them didn't enjoy a happy life for very long.
Now my parents told me to let Lou Xiao'e get pregnant quickly, and then let her go back to Chunyan, which made Xu Guo feel a little uncomfortable.
Because he originally planned to let things go, otherwise he would have two big beauties at home, and they could only view from afar and not play with them. What's the point of living this life?
Originally, Xu Guo wanted to resist a few times, but in the end they were defeated, so he had to make a new plan and set off late.
Unlike Xu Damao in the TV series, Xu Guo is a sharpshooter. He can see the target clearly and the guns are well maintained. The only problem is whether he wants to hit the target.
Because of intentionality, Lou Xiaoe soon became pregnant, but because it was approaching the New Year, Xu Guo was too lazy to hurry up so much, so he simply waited for the New Year before going.
After all, this year is my first New Year after getting married and taking concubines, so it is very necessary to spend it at home.
Maybe it was because he made his wives and concubines pregnant. When he was worshiping his ancestors before the New Year, Xu's father talked to the ancestral tablets brought from the mainland for a long time, which was to communicate to them that his generation had begun to grow.
This New Year is also the first New Year that Xiang Chunyan has spent in China. Although Hong Kong is now under the jurisdiction of the United Kingdom of Dayong, it is completely traditional Chinese in terms of customs.
This New Year has greatly improved her Chinese, born in Melissa, to her sense of belonging to her nationality. After all, now it is no longer as good as a few decades later, and Chinese are not having a good life.
So now the Chinese people over there can’t say that they have self-identity for Yameijian, but more of their own birthplace.
