Volume 4: Walking in the Solar System Chapter 51: Building Block Club

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The Building Block Club is a building with three floors above ground and two floors underground. It is about five kilometers away from the Science and Technology Museum. It is relatively remote and there are no other buildings around it.  The door was featureless, and there was a square door plate with "bcc" hanging on the doorpost. As soon as Li Zhuang saw this plate, he remembered the past and couldn't help but feel happy.

    The official name of the Building Blocks Club is the "Building Blocks Exchange Meeting", not the internal technology exchange market of United Technologies Corporation. Benjamin McCauley, vice president and president of Wellin Technology, is the founder.  Its initial abbreviation was bc, which stands for Building Block Club.  This abbreviation means "idiot" in Chinese Pinyin. Macaulay sweated profusely after hearing Zhou Qisen's explanation, and changed it to the current bcc, which is the Building Block Exchange Conference.

    In addition to company executives, laboratory directors and senior senior core employees are the starting line for employees who can participate in the Building Block Club. There are about 6,000 qualified people in the entire system.  The establishment of the Building Block Club is related to the company's system. After Macaulay became the president of Wellin Technology, he began to think hard about how to ensure safety and smoothly transform the company's research and development results, while also solving the balance of interests within the company and allowing employees to have enough  Pressure will not lead to negative work.

    "Hello boss, why are you free to come here today? You are a rare visitor." The security supervisor saw Li Zhuang approaching the door and hurried over to greet him.  He was a little confused. There was nothing important today. Could it be that the big boss just came over for a visit?

    "Hello, hehe, I'm taking the children to visit the Science and Technology Museum and stop by here." Li Zhuang greeted him while leading Arthur into the security passage.

    "Boss, I want to ask you something. Can our security department participate in the naming system? Many colleagues are very interested, but there is no such content in the company system." The white supervisor from an unknown country spoke with a Beijing film.  Asked about things that Li Zhuang had not thought about.  The Ministry of Security only had its own research center two years ago, and research on upgrading Weizhou¡¯s security system is now in charge of the Ministry of Security Research Center.

    "Well, it's theoretically possible. You can write a suggestion and send it to the administrative center, and someone will deal with it. At the very least, they will give you a clear reply and reason."

    The supervisor was overjoyed and watched the two people who passed the test leave. He went back into the office and sat down to start worrying about how to write suggestions. He was good at playing with weapons, but not good at writing articles.

    After entering the building, Li Zhuang went directly to Wu Wg's office, where Comrade Vice President and Director of the Joint Dispatch Center works most of the time.  Although Dr. Wu is a heavyweight in the company, he is not in Li Zhuang's circle. Except for official business, he never interacts with him. It may have something to do with his age, and he is not a member of the same class.  He is only two years younger than Da Mian. He turned sixty in June this year and is the same age as Han Desheng.

    Wu Wg is particularly interesting. He still retains his status as a D member, but the monthly D fee is paid to his wife. The family uses this money to eat and drink in Director Qi's restaurant every year.  This is a person with extremely high emotional intelligence and down-to-earth work, who is very comfortable in project management.

    "Boss, Dr. Wu is not here, how about we go to Dr. Macaulay's place to have a look?" Arthur ran fast as a young man and went to Wu's office first and found that no one was there.

    "Okay!" Li Zhuang was secretly glad that he had not taken the wrong path. At the same time, he suspected that there was a conflict between Macaulay and Wu Wg, because although their offices were both on the third floor, one was on the east side and the other on the west side, both of which were at the end of the road.

    Macaulay was in the office, and Wu Wg was with him. The two were quarreling, and their faces were red and their necks were rough.  The soundproofing of the office was very good, but the voices of these two people were a bit loud. When Li Zhuang knocked on the door and entered, he found that both of their faces were red.

    "Director Li, you came just in time, we are having a dispute." Wu Wg said.

    "What's the matter? Why don't you take a break today?" The computer expert was a little confused. Macaulay is a staunch supporter of weekend breaks, while Wu Wg's working hours are not fixed.  .

    "The Department of Physics, the Department of Energy and the Department of Engineering discovered a new material almost at the same time. WLES adopted this material, which can reduce the cost of super batteries. The benefits are not easy to distribute. We have different opinions." Macaulay said.

    "Haha, strictly speaking, I am the representative of the research department, and he is the representative of the industrial department, and they are bargaining." Wu Wg calmed down and smiled.

    Li Zhuang fainted. After the company's adjustment, most of the research institutes of Wellin Technology were assigned to the industrial group. Macaulay's role changed. Wellin Technology became an organization that manages and coordinates the R&D departments of major industrial groups. It represents  Small interests of industrial groups.

    "Hey, what's there to argue about? Now it's a research system, and the distribution of interests is divided by research institutes. Don't stick to the model of the previous research institutes; our goal is the starry sky, and the distribution of interests must be biased toward the R&D department. I hope we  I can see everywhere in the solar system in my lifetime." Li Zhuang shook his head and acted as a judge.

    "You put it simply, some people are not interested in the stars and would rather stay on earth." Macaulay clickedThe referee was unfair.

    "Naming rights, operating according to the LTA space station model, should be feasible." The computer expert came up with another trump card, and the two doctors smiled bitterly.  This low-level trick is very lethal to people who have no worries about food, clothing, housing and transportation, and is so powerful that many people cannot refuse it.

    Although spacecraft and aerospace aircraft are named digitally, their radio call signs are named.  The chief engineer of the spacecraft laboratory is from Russia, and the chief engineer of the aerospace aircraft is from Citi.  According to the company's principle of who develops and names the spacecraft, the call sign of the vss-class spacecraft is Kotlas, and the VA-class spacecraft is Provo. The former is the name of the city in Russia, and the latter is the name of the city in Utah, Citi. The names of the two chief engineers  hometown.

    nwww.piaotia.com The wr-2 rocket is called the Lubbock class. The former comes from Andreev, the chief engineer of the rocket, and the latter comes from the hometown of the chief engineer of the rocket, which is also a city in Citigroup.

    When the space station plan was first formulated, the research and development was dominated by Chinese employees.  The chief engineer is a Chinese Canadian with ancestors from Taiwan. He proposed naming the island after the island and the vote was approved.  As long as it complies with the company's naming rules, according to the company's practice, the chief engineer of a large project has the right to nominate and have priority in naming based on the proportion of his contribution to the project. Therefore, the space station under development is very likely to be called an island in China.

    Canberra looks like it¡¯s going to be bad at first glance. If we don¡¯t interfere, there will be no room for shame. This is because this is a big project and there will be constant communication with the ground.  The name and radio call sign of the space station are not simple. There were disputes between Russia and Citigroup during the International Space Station era.

    Taking the actual situation into consideration, the company's management accepted Canberra's request. Over the years, the increasingly wealthy people of Tasmania donated a total of 200 million Australian dollars as naming fees. Canberra allocated 100 million Australian dollars, and thus the official name of the space station was decided.  Known as "Little Tasmania", its radio call sign is lta.

    The dozens of cabins on the space station have different names, which are very interesting. They are like a kaleidoscope. They are all voted by the project team employees. For example, the name of the space station's propulsion module is "Marathon", a small town on the edge of Lake Superior, which has multiple meanings.  .

    "That's it for now, I'll take you to see the trade fair." After a while, everyone came to their senses, and Wu Wg thought of Li Zhuang's purpose.

    "Okay, George, you take Daniel to the fair. I'll go home and go to Melbourne in the afternoon. My sister asked me to bring a koala there." Macaulay said and left happily.

    "Koala? What koala? Can a koala be a personal pet?" Li Zhuang was puzzled.

    "Haha, Director Li, the Koala Breeding Center of the Department of Biology has been able to breed this cute animal in batches. It is their super source of wealth. They have just received the special pet approval. You can ask Xia Yuande for details."

    "I want to raise pandas, but I don't know if it's possible?" Li Zhuang joked, but Wu Wg said seriously: "If it's not possible now, it doesn't mean it won't be possible in the future; the Department of Biology and Sichuan Province have a cooperative relationship in panda research. According to our technological progress,  With such speed, the research plan may be completed within five years, and the partners are quite good.¡±

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????? Wu Wg introduced to Li Zhuang that each research institute has its own separate room here, and security issues are taken into consideration when decorating it, and there is no place for trivial things like eavesdropping.  There are a total of nine hundred independent rooms on four floors. The location of different studies has been considered according to their importance and divided into areas according to industry.

    "Full internal monitoring?"

    "Yes, otherwise it wouldn't be a mess. Every time I come here, the director of the institute will lead the team and use his own private key and identification device to open the public directory and select the technology he needs in a targeted manner. The building block meeting is mainly about  It is used for communication between the industrial department and the research department. It is driven by economic interests and also puts pressure on research institutions. There is a control room in front, let¡¯s go and take a look.¡±

    The instruments in the security room operate automatically and are monitored in real time, but only core employees with security level nine or above can access the information inside.  Li Zhuang took out his key and inserted it into the interface, put on the brainwave controller, the system automatically scanned fingerprints and irises, analyzed the brainwave status, and a mechanical sound sounded, "Identification passed, you can view the monitoring data!"

    The LCD screen protection panels on the three walls retracted automatically. The computer expert collapsed when he saw the video, because all the price tags showed the goods in the canteen. He didn't know what it meant. "This place is no different from a vegetable market. They don't look like high-end people."  Intellectuals!¡±

    "Haha, the Building Block Club is just like a vegetable market. All the prices here are for ingredients. For example, a big cabbage means 10,000 gold coupons, which is not a small amount, so everyone will haggle over it and quarrel."

    "Who came up with the idea?"

    Wu Wg was a little embarrassed, "It's me, haha, everyone thinks this is good. We don't have to talk about money directly. We are senior intellectuals and we all need to save face."

    Li Zhuang laughed loudly after hearing this. This method of hiding one's ears and stealing the bell is quite good.Interesting, people who come up with bad ideas are even more interesting, and they are very considerate for those intellectuals who want to save face.

    "I always heard people say that a certain technology is at the level of cabbage. I was very puzzled at the time. I didn't expect that it meant this. In the company, these small technologies are really just cabbage!"

    "Chinese cabbage-level technology is not Chinese cabbage outside. There are differences inside and outside the company. This is just because research institutes need feedback from industrial groups, and industrial groups often entrust research institutes to develop advanced technologies and conduct preliminary theoretical research, so the price is generally low. Both  It is an interdependent relationship, which is different from the science and technology division. Generally speaking, the dual-track system is slowly disappearing. At present, asa consumes the most, and I don¡¯t know when it will be self-sufficient. If the lunar base can be built within three years, light and helium three  and rare metals are enough to recoup the investment, and the demand within the company is currently very high.¡±

    ¡°What do you think of space solar power plants?¡±

    "Haha, when I went to Canberra last time, my classmate who taught at ANU asked us if we would publicly sell the shares of the space solar power plant. He wanted to buy it. I told Zhou Qisen and he said he would consider it. Anyone interested in this project would not  few."

    "We are a technology concept stock with a bright future, and the dividends of listed companies are effective."

    "Of course, I came here because I thought Wesson Technology was a bright technology concept stock. There are not many people smarter than me." Wu Wg mentioned the past, as if he was betting on the right thing.

    The two chatted for a while. Someone came to see Wu Wg, so Li Zhuang said goodbye to him. Before leaving, Wu Wg suddenly said: "Director Li, take care of your health. You are the fastest aging among the management teams we have started."

    Li Zhuang smiled bitterly, said nothing, and took Arthur back to the Science and Technology Museum.  The children were still in the military industrial hall and were enjoying themselves watching the scene and did not notice their father's return.  Li Zhuang was not interested in accompanying him on the tour, so he found a private room upstairs to sit down, took out his e-cigarette and started puffing away, staring at the displays that cost countless money and energy but could not be used freely.

    Arthur suddenly said: "It's an embarrassing life!" The computer expert looked at the unmarried boy and laughed, "It's very frustrating, but there will always be a day when it's not frustrating, don't worry."
