Rebirth 2004: I can make money by writing.
Chapter 395: Industry 4.0? Sorry, I brought it up!
"Industry 4.0" is a forward-looking concept proposed by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research and the Federal Ministry of Economics and Technology at the 2013 Hannover Industrial Fair.
Now, Hao Qiang shamelessly claims it as his own.
YTV was present at the scene, and if it were really broadcast, it might mislead the public into thinking that this was Hao Qiang's original concept.
Considering that this concept may be ahead of current reality, Hao Qiang elaborated cautiously:
“Throughout human history, the application of steam engines, large-scale production, and the popularization of electronic information technology can be regarded as the first three industrial revolutions.
Today, with the rapid development of human networks, we are about to usher in the fourth industrial revolution.
This revolution is based on cyber-physical systems and is characterized by a high degree of digitalization, networking, and machine self-organization in production. I call it "Industry 4.0."
Noticing that the leaders present were listening attentively and nodding frequently, Hao Qiang realized that some might find it difficult to understand and might be pretending to be confused, so he gave an example: "Take our company's automobile sales and production as an example.
We have developed a future car app that consumers can download and use via their smartphones.
Through this app, customers can place orders for cars, including choosing personalized configurations such as body color.”
“Once the customer confirms the order, our smart factory receives the order information immediately.
The system will automatically analyze and count the required materials, quantities, models, etc.
This data will then be transmitted to each production link in the smart factory to achieve efficient and accurate production processes."
Hao Qiang pointed to an LCD screen at a workstation, which displayed various production information in real time.
He went on to explain:
“Through this system, the factory can grasp market dynamics in real time.
Soon after placing an order, customers will receive feedback from the smart factory, understand the production progress, and even predict when they can get their new car.
To achieve this high efficiency and real-time performance, a supporting intelligent logistics system is also needed.”
"In addition, after picking up their cars, customers can easily find super charging stations and charge their cars through our 'Future e-Charging' app.
The 'Future Car' app provides a full range of follow-up services.
In short, Industry 4.0 is based on Industry 3.0 and incorporates network digital management to achieve a higher degree of intelligence, thereby improving production efficiency, reducing inventory and production costs, and shortening capital turnover cycle.
We are currently working on improving this intelligent system.”
The senior leader was amazed after hearing this: "I see, I didn't expect you to be at the forefront. This is really rare."
Other accompanying personnel also gained a preliminary understanding of Industry 4.0.
Hao Qiang not only proposed the concept, but also piloted it within the company and achieved remarkable results. This was by no means just talk.
It is easy to come up with cutting-edge concepts, but it is extremely difficult to put them into practice and make them effective.
Hao Qiang then said, "Leader, our company still has many shortcomings in its efforts to implement Industry 4.0.
The operation of the entire system depends on real and reliable data support, which requires the front line to do accurate statistical work.
For example, if customers do not place orders through our platform, the smart factory will miss this data.
This problem is relatively easy to solve, and manual completion is also possible. The most difficult part is warehouse management.
In addition, the performance of the system is also subject to external factors such as smartphones, network technology, and chips.
The larger the amount of data, the higher the requirements for computer performance.
Although there are many shortcomings at present, this system has saved us a lot of manpower and material costs.
In a few years, as chip performance improves, our Industry 4.0 will be more complete.
But there is still a long way to go to achieve intelligent production.”
After listening to this, the leader became more interested in Industry 4.0.
In the welding workshop, he observed that the workers had little participation and mainly played a supervisory role.
"Mr. Hao, given the current situation in our country, how long do you think it will take to fully realize intelligent manufacturing?" The senior leader asked this insightful question.
As an industry expert, Hao Qiang must have unique insights on this.
The leader asked this question because he wanted to hear the professional analysis of this successful entrepreneur, rather than the theoretical answer.
Hao Qiang pondered for a moment and replied cautiously: "Leader, in my opinion,
The speed of adoption of intelligent manufacturing will vary significantly across different industries.
Industries with a high degree of standardization are more likely to achieve intelligent manufacturing.
In contrast, industries with a high degree of non-standardization may face greater challenges in the process of intelligent transformation, which may take longer.
Another key factor is the size of the business.
Large enterprises usually have more sufficient financial and technical resources and can advance smart manufacturing more quickly.
Small and medium-sized enterprises may face financial and technical barriers and require more time and support.
Of course, smart devices are becoming cheaper and cheaper, while labor costs are getting higher and higher. This is a very obvious trend, which will greatly accelerate the intelligent process of the entire manufacturing industry.
Taking all these factors into consideration, I predict that in the next 5 to 10 years, my country's major manufacturing sectors will be able to achieve a high level of intelligence.
But it may take 15 to 20 years for this technology to be fully adopted in all walks of life.”
After listening to this, the leader nodded in agreement and expressed satisfaction with Hao Qiang's in-depth analysis.
He added: "You are right, promoting intelligent manufacturing is a systematic project that requires the joint efforts of the whole society.
If you want to achieve what you call Industry 4.0, it will take even longer.”
"Yes, it is much more complicated to realize Industry 4.0." Hao Qiang agreed. Even by 2023, no company has seen it fully realized.
Then, Hao Qiang led the leaders to the new energy vehicle finished product area.
Hao Qiang introduced the future ES6 to the leaders and which parts were independently developed.
The big boss sat in the driver's seat, and Hao Qiang sat in the co-pilot's seat and introduced some functions to him.
After viewing it, the senior leader expressed his appreciation for its design and performance, commenting: "New energy vehicles are the future development direction, and you are at the forefront of the world.
I hope you will continue to work hard and make greater contributions to the transformation and upgrading of my country's auto industry."
It is rare for a domestically produced car to compete with BBA, and it has advanced technology, a high domestic production rate, and sells well. The top leaders still have to support it.
If YTV broadcasts it, it will be a disguised form of publicity.
In this workshop, the leader talked with the workers to understand their work and living conditions.
Finally, the senior leader spoke highly of the employees' mental outlook and work enthusiasm.
Since the lithium battery factory is not convenient to enter, Hao Qiang introduced the lithium battery achievements in the automobile finished product workshop.
After the visit, the senior leader said to Hao Qiang: "Mr. Hao, today's visit left a deep impression on me.
Future Technology Group is not only large in scale, but more importantly, it has strong innovation and R&D capabilities and a wealth of talent.
I hope you will continue to maintain this innovative spirit and contribute to the country's scientific and technological development and economic growth."
Hao Qiang answered sincerely: "Thank you for the encouragement.
We will continue to work hard to live up to the expectations of the country and the people."
The entire visit lasted about an hour and a half.
Finally, the group returned to the conference room, and Hao Qiang reported the company's future development plan in detail to the top leaders, and also emphasized the grand blueprint for the semiconductor field.
For strategic reasons, Hao Qiang urged the media to keep relevant information appropriately confidential and avoid excessive publicity.
The top leader expressed his understanding and solemnly promised: as long as the company focuses on high-tech development and has the ability to break the monopoly of foreign core technologies, the country will spare no effort to provide support.
Through this field visit, the leaders deeply realized that Future Technology Group is at the forefront of the industry in many fields and its technology is advanced, and it is not just hype in the media.
The strength and potential of this company are impressive.
Hao Qiang himself is indeed a practical entrepreneur who values science and technology.
Before leaving, the leader did a rare move - he gave his personal contact information to Hao Qiang and said that if there was anything important, he could contact him directly at any time.
You know, leaders of his level rarely provide their personal contact information to others. This is undoubtedly a high recognition and trust in Hao Qiang and his company.
For Hao Qiang and the company, this is undoubtedly a great encouragement and opportunity.
Other leaders were very surprised to see that the senior leader gave Hao Qiang his personal contact information, which meant that Hao Qiang had obtained a "through train" to the highest decision-making level.
If you think about it carefully, the strength and potential demonstrated by Future Technology Group are indeed worthy of the country's attention.
There are only a handful of such private enterprises in China.
