Chapter 199 The Little Things About Starting a Company
After returning to his own world and going through all that trouble, Li Muyang was completely exhausted, both physically and mentally.
He had never imagined that running a company would be so exhausting! Even with so many clones working simultaneously, he couldn't keep up! It was even more tiring than researching technology!
Even with connections at the top, ample funds, and a vast network of contacts, Li Muyang's plans were simply too ambitious. He was overwhelmed trying to handle everything on his own! Running around everywhere, reviewing and signing countless documents… even someone with superhuman calculation abilities would struggle to keep up.
The Bodhi Tree is still struggling with the star core, and the transformation will take some time. It may not be able to help at the moment.
The main problem is... none of the people around Li Muyang can help him!
Bai Yuxiu and Feng Ling'er, needless to say, are chivalrous women of the martial arts world. Li Muyang is already extremely grateful that they can use modern electronic products normally without any problems. While the two women are not exactly tech-illiterate, they are certainly quite inconvenient to use them.
As for Nan Ying and her daughter Nan Sheng, not to mention the Miao girls, all they need to do is beauties. One of them is just a doctor, and the other is just a hands-off leader of the sect. How could they know anything about helping Li Muyang with this kind of work?
Lu You... let's consider people from other worlds instead.
Lu You (；￣д￣): ……
Yeah, he's only good at intelligence gathering; in other areas, he's just a nuisance!
No one in the Naruto world can help with this. The situations in the two worlds are completely different. In the Jujutsu world, Li Muyang was willing to ask Gojo Satoru to recommend some talented people, but the problem is that it's not easy to recruit people for a cross-world job!
You can't always trust ordinary people who come to you! You don't know Li Muyang well enough to trust him! It's better to find someone in your own world!
Not to mention the Hundred Ghosts Parade at Night; it's already abnormal if they don't get called to the police and arrested by the police station when they come out! In daily life in China, there aren't many residents with such demonic features. Anyone who wanders around with demonic features every day will definitely be invited for tea.
As for the talents in their own world... well, Li's parents did intend to recommend a few talents to Li Muyang, but unfortunately, Li Muyang glanced at them and politely declined!
It's one thing for them to be old, but they all act like they're here because their parents recommended them, speaking to Li Muyang in a bureaucratic tone! They want to address him by seniority! And their demands are getting more and more demanding! They haven't shown any ability, yet they want shares the moment they open their mouths! They're acting like daydreamers!
She's not good-looking at all! But she has such high aspirations!
Li Muyang's restraint in not beating them up is already quite remarkable!
Even if Old Li were capable, he wouldn't want someone like that! His place is too small! It can't accommodate such a big shot!
Everything is still in its infancy! Hiring someone like this into your company is just asking for trouble. Don't you think you're busy enough already?
If Li Muyang were someone completely incompetent, an arrogant but capable person, he could accept him. The problem is, Old Li isn't a mascot. He just wants to find a few helpful deputies. This kind of arrogant person should get lost! He should be blacklisted!
He'd rather train new people from scratch than accept this seasoned veteran!
Li Yunfei and Xiao Xuanyan hadn't expected these "old acquaintances" to be so unreliable, so they simply gave up on the idea of finding help for Li Muyang. It seemed that the people they knew might not all be trustworthy.
Well, the main problem is that the truly reliable talents all have their own things to deal with. The talents they know who are frustrated and unsuccessful and can still be recommended are all idle. In a sense, aren't they just idle because they lack ability?
I don't mean to generalize, but Mr. and Mrs. Li were so angry that they were unwilling to "ask" so-called "acquaintances" again!
In the end, only Li Muyang could finish arranging the work properly before he could find a chance to rest.
Well, we've only just settled the company's framework and gotten all the necessary documents and materials. There's still a lot to do.
For example, recruiting employees or setting up factories.
It's really hard to say who a medical student, especially a veterinary student, would do something like this...
If Li Muyang hadn't had armored vehicles as a stepping stone and hadn't gained enough trust from those above, obtaining this series of documents would have been incredibly difficult.
A towering building starts from the ground up, and the most pressing issue to address is undoubtedly the equipment. Everything Li Muyang envisioned required fully functional equipment to function, so the first priority was naturally to get the misguided development of mobile phones back on track.
As for the company name... Li Muyang thought about it for a long time and came up with the name "Dianmi".
"Dianmi" (点米), meaning "a little bit of rice," can be broken down and recombined to form "Mu" (沐).
Okay, that's a stretch, I know.
It's simply because, due to various reasons, no company similar to a certain rice merchant or Lei has emerged in our own world.
Then there's... Liu Dawei. This guy somehow heard about Li Muyang's business dealings and came over wanting to invest... but Li Muyang refused.
I should start from scratch. If I really do that, my company will become a subsidiary of Liu Dawei's Mi family.
Personal friendship is one thing, but how can one tolerate another person snoring beside one's bed!
However, we should definitely cooperate where possible, especially since the two companies already have a foundation for cooperation.
Li Muyang naturally took out his finished phone and let Liu Dawei try it out.
It lacks those flashy but ultimately useless features; its performance is simply phenomenal! A true smartphone! A smart assistant for everyone!
For Liu Dawei, the greatest value of Li Muyang's phone was... it played games without any lag! Its operating efficiency was comparable to some computers on the market!
Even the highest-spec phones available on Earth currently suffer from frame drops, stuttering, and overheating issues when playing Mi Home games, and these are quite severe! Even games from Tencent are similar, with appalling graphics.
To avoid lag, you can only play on PC or PS devices.
This made it one of the most difficult things for Liu Dawei's team to do in developing games: compressing such a large game into a small mobile phone.
The level of technology involved is truly exceptional! Many of Liu Dawei's colleagues have had to start wearing wigs.
There's nothing you can do, even cultivating immortality can't save your hairstyle!
Because of configuration issues, Liu Dawei even considered entering the mobile phone industry! Unfortunately, this industry is not so easy to enter! Professionals are almost monopolized by large companies, and it's hard to find suitable talent! He didn't have any other solutions for the time being, so he could only put it off for now.
Li Muyang designed his own phone, and he also designed the operating program inside it. Even the battery and processor were designed by him. None of the products on the market could satisfy Li Muyang. With such good materials and technology, why is his development not as fast as in his previous life?
Yes, except for the large amount of memory!
The problem is that having a lot of memory is useless! It's all wasted on unnecessary features, like a camera with insufficient resolution!
Therefore, Li Muyang bought the land of several factories at once! He had to start almost everything from scratch! He planned to produce many of the specialized parts himself! Therefore, he even designed the machine tools for the factories.
Actually, there's another reason...
"What did you say?!" Liu Dawei grabbed Li Muyang's shoulder in terror and demanded sharply, "You're saying that imported chips are being remotely controlled? That's unreliable?"
Li Muyang nodded with great regret: "That's right. To be precise, imported integrated circuits or batteries may contain backdoor programs... They're not safe."
Hmm... it seems they didn't realize this in time!
There have been some rumors from the authorities, but it's only been recently, and it was Li Muyang who brought it up.
Firstly, Li Muyang hadn't thought of such a thing until he discovered the problem while researching it himself. He then reported it to his father, Li Yunfei, who in turn informed his superiors.
It's no wonder that Father Li didn't notice anything amiss. After all, he was just a reincarnated being. He might have a wide range of knowledge and extraordinary strength, but he was bound to make mistakes if he wasn't paying attention.
Secondly... this world's China still places too much emphasis on the cultivation system. While the pursuit of immortality through cultivation is certainly appealing, the vigilance in scientific research is naturally much weaker. In addition, the current state of development is roughly equivalent to just over 10 years in the previous life.
Yes, so development has gone astray. What should have been developed has not been developed, and the problems that should have been recognized have not been detected in time.
These things that rely too heavily on imports are naturally prone to problems.
The matter concerning Li Muyang was of great importance, and Liu Dawei dared not blindly believe any one person's words. With a livid face, he took his leave and went back to get a checkup. He needed to see for himself!
If this is true, then it won't just affect Xiaomi; it could cause a major upheaval in most of China's electronics market!
"By the way, remember to keep this news a secret for now." Li Muyang reminded Liu Dawei meaningfully, "It's not that I have too many selfish motives, but if this gets out, it will easily cause panic, and we don't have enough countermeasures right now."
Liu Dawei nodded: "I understand."
He had witnessed firsthand the immense power behind Li Muyang, which was far from insignificant; Li Muyang was definitely not just an ordinary researcher. The fact that this information could be obtained from Li Muyang meant that the higher-ups were probably preparing to intervene. However, there was no guarantee that the leak wouldn't affect the official plans. Old Liu dared not take the blame for leaking state secrets on his own!
After all, he was only at the Integration Realm.
After watching Liu Dawei leave the company, Li Muyang sighed. It was all about timing and fate... but it was also an opportunity for his development. Otherwise, no matter how advanced Li Muyang's technology was, he might not have been able to easily get a share of this market!
Before Li Muyang could continue resting, Liu Dawei suddenly returned.
"By the way, Lao Li, I'm going abroad in a while to discuss business with a corporation. Would you be interested in coming with me to broaden your horizons?" Liu Dawei poked his head into the office and said, "The infamous Wayne Corporation of Gotham City, USA!"
Li Muyangヾ(￣□￣；)ノ: WC! You surnamed Liu, you repay kindness with enmity!
