Reborn in 95, I unearthed a gold mine after the family split up.

Zhang Dong knew that the matter of talent needed to be prepared early on; one couldn't just try to find someone at the last minute, or it would delay important matters.

As the old saying goes, "An army marches on its stomach," and that's the principle at play...

"Boss, is this the product template you envisioned? Please take a look."

Seeing that the prototype of the first generation of learning machine had finally been created after much hard work, Zhang Dong breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hmm, not bad, not bad."

Hearing the boss's praise, Lin Chang breathed a sigh of relief.

He has no idea how much effort they have put in over these three months.

After being impressed by their boss, they devoted themselves entirely to product development. Now they have finally produced a sample template. If the boss approves, they can start mass production according to the relevant models and drawings...

“It’s not bad, but…” Zhang Dong took a deep breath: “This part needs to be modified, especially the keyboard of the learning machine.”

Lin Chang's eyes widened: "Boss, why do we need to change it like this?"

When his subordinates asked, Zhang Dong patiently explained.

"Because this is a combination product, researching learning machines and game consoles is just the beginning."

Zhang Dong's words completely shocked Lin Chang and the staff of the R&D department.

"What, boss? This learning machine is just a start, not our final product?"

Seeing the other party's shock, Zhang Dong smiled faintly.

"That's right. I asked you to make these changes so that they would be more in line with our second-phase product, which would help with the production and research and development of the computer."

"What, a computer?"

Lin Chang exclaimed in surprise. Computers were no stranger to Lin Chang, who came from a design and research background.

A computer, commonly known as a computer machine, is an electronic computing machine used for high-speed calculations.

It can perform numerical calculations, logical calculations, and has storage and memory functions. It is a modern intelligent electronic office device that can run according to a program and automatically process massive amounts of data at high speed.

Of course, Lin Chang also learned these things from books.

Lin Chang knew that a computer consists of a hardware system and a software system. A computer without any software installed is called a bare machine. Anyway, there are many types of computers. He had even memorized them by rote. They could be divided into supercomputers, industrial control computers, network computers, personal computers, embedded computers, and so on.

Understanding his boss's intentions, Lin Chang became even more excited.

"Boss, as far as I know, computers have evolved from the first generation to the fourth generation."

"However, because we are a developing country, the promotion of computers here has not yet begun."

"But since the world's first microprocessor was born in Silicon Valley in 1971, it has ushered in a new era of microcomputers."

"The application areas are also gradually expanding from scientific computing, transaction management, and process control to home life. Boss, are you planning to start the fourth generation of computer revolution?"

As Lin Chang said this, his eyes gleamed.

The other staff members also stared wide-eyed, closely watching the situation.

Zhang Dong smiled faintly: "Talking about revolution is a bit too high-end. What we need to do is develop the first generation of computers in China."

"Our company will also become a pioneer and trailblazer in the era of electronic products. This is our long-term goal."

"The reason for this idea is based on the fact that after the real economy develops to a certain stage, it will transform and shift towards the Internet economy."

"The Internet, relying on the enormous transmission power of the network, will provide convenient services. At that time, people's shopping, clothing, food, housing and transportation will all be closely connected with the Internet."

"What? Buying things online? What if I get scammed?"

Zheng Wanfeng, standing to the side, placed a bucket of water on the ground, his face full of confusion.

Seeing Zheng Wanfeng's expression, and then seeing the other R&D personnel beside him also looking shocked, Zhang Dong smiled faintly.

It's actually quite normal for Zheng Wanpeng to have this idea. That's how he experienced it in his previous life. At first, online shopping was a brave act, almost like being the first person to dare to try something new.

After all, people are naturally afraid of being deceived.

Doing business through a virtual network with strangers is beyond their current understanding. Therefore, Zhang Dong didn't offer much explanation on this point.

Isn't the development of the commercial internet a prime example?

In the early stages of development, the internet giants who hadn't yet taken off were all extremely anxious.

But later, everyone realized the convenience of the internet, which allowed those internet giants to rise rapidly and quickly stand at the forefront of the times.

This effectively crushed and humiliated business owners, leaving them thoroughly humiliated. The saying "When the wind blows, even a pig can take off" originated from this.

Reborn and returned, at such a critical juncture, with such a huge pie of profit.

He can't let this go...

"Boss, are you serious? Can we really trust strangers online and buy their stuff from them in the future?"

A female R&D staff member, looking shocked, adjusted her glasses and asked Zhang Dong with a puzzled expression.

After Zhang Dong smiled, he explained: "To give a clear example, after the first mobile phone was put into use in 87, you can imagine how much effort it would take to find someone before that."

"But now, if the other party also has a mobile phone, and you also know their number, then finding them is a matter of minutes."

"Think about it, before the advent of mobile phones, could you have imagined this step? This is the power of technology."

"Wow, that's for sure." The female staff member looked surprised.

"The development of the internet will be similar. In the future, there will be a mature guarantee system. For example, with the emergence of third-party platforms, if you buy goods from someone and are not satisfied, the third-party platform will immediately refund your money after you return the goods. Then, will you still have any worries?"

"Wow, I see. The internet is truly amazing."

Several female researchers gaped in shock, their sexy mouths agape.

"Mr. Zhang, I heard that you've equipped all your department heads with mobile phones. Is this just a rumor or is it true?"

Another female R&D staff member asked Zhang Dong with a puzzled look.

Zhang Dong nodded to her: "It's true. I also want to improve efficiency and don't want to search all over the world for people, especially the managers of these subordinates."

“Before we had mobile phones, it could take me ages to find them, but now we can get it done with just one phone call.”
