Mittal was surprised, why Henry Williams would come to buy his company.
"Mr. Mittal, Mr. Williams has decided to merge Williams Steel and Mittal Group into a new company. We hold 75 shares and you hold 25."
"Very unexpectedly, why would Mr. Williams favor the Mittal Group?"
"Haha, to be precise, it should be Mr. Mittal’s talent! Mr. Williams confessed that after the merger of the two companies, in order to keep a low profile, the new company’s name is still called Mittal Group, and the company is owned by you. Full responsibility! No special circumstances, will not interfere in company affairs. However, if the Mittal Group needs help, just let him know."
Mittal thought about it carefully. There are too many companies under Henry Williams's name. He can't manage it by himself. The new company is actually under his own management! Although his own shares are only 25, but with Henry Williams as a support, funds, resources, contacts, etc., will be greatly helped, and the company's development speed will definitely be fast!
Mittal immediately agreed.
"Okay, I promised! Mittal Group and Williams Steel merged!!!"
"Mr. Mittal, this will definitely be your most wise decision! I am here to congratulate you first. I believe that within a few years, the whole world will know your name, and your Mittal name will be the same as World Steel The kings are connected together!"
"Thank you!"
Soon, the merger of Williams Steel and Mittal Group spread. The world’s major media and companies in the industry are paying attention to Williams Steel’s next move. They originally thought they would acquire a world-class large steel company, but they did not expect to acquire a medium-sized steel company with a market value of less than 1 billion U.S. dollars. This is obviously not in line with Henry Williams' style.
However, this reassures other steel companies a lot.
"Henry Williams still knew how to measure and didn't cut our money."
"Mittal Group is just a company of average size, and Williams Steel Company is even just a newly established company. After the merger of the two companies, it is just like that, the scale is small, and there is not much threat to us!"
""
A week later, Mittal personally rushed to Melbourne to sign the contract with Henry. Henry served as chairman of the Mittal Group and Mittal served as the company's headquarters temporarily in Melbourne.
The size of the Mittal Group but the technology is good, and the quality of the smelted steel is very good!
In line with the principle that no fertilizer should flow to outsiders' fields, Henry contacted companies that needed steel under his name and transferred all orders to Mittal Group. This has made Mittal Group's business volume and strength soaring!
Mittal himself saw this and knew that his decision was correct. In his opinion, the merger of the two companies is almost a pie for him, but fortunately he also caught it.
"Mittal, the warehouse robot of P company has been developed and is preparing for mass production. The Mittal Group must accelerate the pace of expansion to ensure that the production capacity can meet our needs! In addition, we will strengthen the technology and produce some special products in the future. Aerospace steel. I know that Mittal’s temporary technology is not enough, but I have hired a headhunting company to dig talents in Japan, Europe, the United States and other places.”
"Mr. Williams, please rest assured, I will attach great importance to technology research and development!"
"Well, technology is the key! In fact, other companies under my name can feed the Mittal Group and even make him a giant of steel, but if the technology is not good enough to produce qualified products, I even want to take care of the rice. The Tal Group is also powerless!!!"
"Understand!"
"Okay, that's it, I will return to the United States today! P company has an important meeting waiting for me!"
After Henry and Mittal completed the explanation, he flew back to the United States on the same day.
He was first at Williams Manor, and he would like to learn about the situation at home.
Karina, Helen, and Princess Ulysses reluctantly agreed with Henry and Naomi, but they firmly disagreed with her living at home. Henry thought, if you don't agree, then you don't agree, and you can live in the Beverly Hills Villa. After Naomi left Williams Manor, she immediately went to the crew to audition and became the heroine of Mullenhedau. Then accompany the crew to prepare for the shooting.
Henry has stayed in Melbourne for a long time, and now it is more than February 2000.
After years of research, the warehouse robot developed by p company has finally matured in technology, moving, transporting, releasing, etc., and it is very smooth. Although the warehouse robot is only a tractor and two tentacles, the most important thing is the entire warehouse. Robot system.
The warehouse robot system needs to deal with various situations, distinguish goods, recognize directions, choose transportation routes, avoid obstacles, accept instructions, etc., which are all intelligent, not human control.
When Henry came to the p company, the company Libert greeted him.
"Chairman, here you are!"
"Well, let's have a meeting right away, I want to find out about the company!"
"Yes!"
After half an hour, p company conference room.
Henry sat on the chief and nodded to Leber, "Let’s start!"
"Ok!"
Leibert responded, and immediately began to introduce the current situation of company p: "At present, in addition to the completion of the research and development of the warehouse robot of company p, among military robots, the robot dog has been greatly improved, both in terms of stability and speed. It has been improved. And the bipedal bionic robots have also made good progress."
"At the same time, we and the company, in conjunction with the sr intelligent program, have now designed the robot Xiaodou!"
After talking for more than ten minutes, Leibert said to Henry: "Chairman, this is probably the situation in the company!"
Henry listened to Leibert while browsing the company’s presentation on the computer, which contained an introduction to the company’s products, including text and pictures.
After Leibert finished speaking, Henry nodded to him, "Very good! In that case, we will start mass production of P company warehouse robots. Every FedEx warehouse must use warehouse robots as soon as possible!!!"
"Okay!" Everyone nodded in response.
Then Henry said: "As for the robot, it looks pretty good. It's not big, and it's round and cute. The front of the whole body is a face-shaped LCD screen, which is used as its mouth by lighting up a purple flash. The nose and the eyes. Because of the different lighting positions, they form a rich expression!"
Henry turned his head to look at Leibert and asked, "Is the sound a machine sound or a human voice?"
Leibert paused and replied: "It's machine sound!"
"Contact, let them match the sr smart program with human voice, preferably with a girl's voice, beautiful and lovely! The machine sound is cold, and the user feels intimacy in the face of such a voice!"
"Well, I understand, I will inform over there!"
After reading the information, Henry closed the screen of his laptop and said, "By the way, Leibert, have you heard of a bionic?"
"Have heard. The term bionic man was first born in the 1970s. At that time, a science fiction TV series called Humans of $6 million was popular in the United States. In the play, people saw the astronaut almost died in a mission. Limbs are reconstructed by artificial organs. Therefore, bionics mainly refer to people who use artificial organs! Of course, it is not limited to humans, but also robots!" Leibert couldn't help but look at Henry and asked, "Chairman, is it possible? Do you want p company to develop bionics?"
"Yes, I intend to let P company develop bionics. I will ask Gene Umbrella to cooperate with you to develop artificial organs, including skin, hair, liver, heart, etc. You say, cold robots are compared with bionics with flesh and blood. , Which one will be more popular?"
Henry paused, and said, "The Bionic Human Plan is mainly based on technical reserves for the time being. By the way, how many researchers does P company currently have?"
"P company has a total of 100,000 employees, including more than 60,000 engineers!!!" Lebert said in a very confident and proud tone, "P company has very few production workers. Before, we dug a lot of Japanese computer numerical control systems. The talents in this field subsequently developed automated CNC machine tools and used robots to produce robots!"
"Using robots to produce robots? In this way, P company has become the second company in the world that can use robots to produce robots after FANUC!!" Henry looked very happy when he heard this.
"Yes, chairman!"
"What's the matter, FedEx is actually laying off employees?"
"Yes! I really don't understand. The rise of e-commerce has made the express delivery industry very popular. How could FedEx lay off employees?"
"As far as I know, most of these fired people are warehouse workers!"
"Warehouse workers? The importance of warehouse workers to courier companies is self-evident. Without them, warehouse management will be chaotic, and delivery time will definitely be greatly delayed. How could FedEx do this?"
The FedEx layoffs caused a huge sensation in the industry, repelling tens of thousands of people in two months.
So, many reporters wanted to visit the FedEx warehouse to find out the reasons, but they were all turned away. But in this way, it is even more suspicious! And what is puzzling is that FedEx fired a large number of warehouse workers, but the speed of express delivery has increased a lot!
There is no impermeable wall in the world. Reporters have inquired that FedEx has used warehouse robots to replace the original workers. For a time, there was a lot of discussion from the outside world, and the news of FedEx's use of robots has also been published many times. However, the outside world still doesn't know what the FedEx warehouse looks like.
In fact, in these two months, under the fully automated and mechanized production of company p, the factory produced a total of 20,000 warehouse robots. During this period, p company began to help FedEx install the corresponding supporting equipment.
On April 1, 2000, on April Fool's Day, 20,000 warehouse robots were delivered to thousands of FedEx warehouses in the United States. On this day, Henry announced that FedEx’s warehouse was shown to the outside world!
After that, reporters rushed to the FedEx warehouse to find out.
As a result, as soon as I walked in, I was dumbfounded.
My God, what are these all! Robot army? ! !
I saw the densely packed robots carrying goods in the warehouse, their actions were orderly and spectacular!
"FedEx is really awesome, I use robots!"
The reporters couldn't help but press the camera shutter to take pictures.
"Excuse me, which company produced these robots?" the reporter asked.
"P company!"
"P company? I remember it was Henry Williams' company?!"
"Yes, it is Mr. Williams' company." The person in charge of FedEx smiled. "This kind of robot is a warehouse robot, which is only one of P company's products. In the future, P company will also develop delivery Robots, by then, FedEx will directly use robots for delivery!!!"
"Can the robot deliver goods?"
The reporters were shocked. They felt that this company was so awesome. They looked at the person in charge of FedEx and waited for him to continue talking, but the person in charge of FedEx laughed and said nothing.
On the same day, news of FedEx's use of warehouse robots spread all over the world.
"Warehouse robot? Fuck, it's a bunker, FedEx is really awesome!"
"Oh, God, this is like an army of robots, the Terminator army is here!"
""
As the FedEx warehouse robot situation became more and more intense, it caused widespread discussion in the society.
Many economists have analyzed: "Robots are cheap, much lower than human costs, and they are tireless and efficient. FedEx introduces warehouse robots and automated management is the future trend!!!"
Some people think: "Robots replace humans, and humans can only be laid off and unemployed. If there are too many unemployed people, it will cause instability to society! This is an act of destroying human beings in disguise!"
Some people worry: "If a robot has thoughts, will it be willing to be manipulated by others?"
Various discussions are endless, but the major express companies around the world have consulted company P for warehouse robots. FedEx has replaced tens of thousands of employees with 20,000 robots, saving too much manpower expenditure. A warehouse robot costs 10,000 U.S. dollars, while the salary of an ordinary warehouse worker is about 2,000 U.S. dollars, and one can buy one in only five months. Workers work 8 hours a day, while warehouse robots can work 24 hours a day. Moreover, the useful life of the warehouse robot is at least 3 years.
Obviously, the cost of warehouse robots is much lower than that of workers, but the office efficiency is much higher! Businessmen are chasing profits, and express companies certainly hope to use robots instead of manual labor!
Not long after, company p received an order for more than 100,000 warehouse robots. Among them, FedEx ordered another 60,000 for installation in Europe, China, Southeast Asia and other places.
At this moment, Henry came to the Gene Umbrella Company and told them to develop bionics with P.
"Artificial organs play a great role in medicine and can replace unhealthy organs of patients. In addition, if Gene Umbrella can manufacture kidneys, the price of kidneys will become cheaper, and fewer people will sell kidneys and buy mobile phones!"
"Sell kidneys to buy mobile phones?" Professor Thomson asked in amazement.
Henry found that he had leaked his mouth, he couldn't help but smiled awkwardly, "Hehe, just to make an analogy. I mean, there are many criminals in the world. They dig other people's organs and sell them. If the organs are cheaper, these are illegal. The molecules would not take such a big risk!"
Henry decided to leave the Gene Umbrella Company after he finished speaking. At this time, Professor Thomson called him, and then said: "Chairman, please come to the laboratory with me, I have something good for you!"
"What good thing?" Henry showed a curious expression.
"Hehe, I'll know when I go!" Professor Thomson smiled and deliberately sold off.
Henry followed Professor Thomson to the laboratory.
At this time, Professor Thomson took out a bottle of red potion from the safe.
"Chairman, this is a special medicine that we have specially developed for you to promote fertility!" As he said, Professor Thomson took a drop of medicinal solution with a straw, and put it on the tester on the experimental bench, and started it for Henry on the spot. Demo.
"Chairman, on the left is your sperm, and on the right is the special potion I just put in. After drinking this special potion, it can reach the testicles, stimulate the vitality and fighting power of the sperm, and help to combine with the woman's chromosomes! Look! The data of the chromosomes on the computer will be known, and it should be helpful to you!"
"How did you develop this medicine?!" Henry asked a little excited and curious.
"Oh, it’s a coincidence to say that people who are collecting plant genes suddenly discovered a plant in the Amazon forest that has a strong stimulation of human male hormones. Just the smell can make people excited, and then we conducted a focused study on it. , And then extracted its essence to make this special potion! After many trials, it is indeed very effective!"
Henry put the special effect potion in his pocket calmly, "Is this only bottle?"
"Yes, there is only one bottle for the time being. When using it, just drink one drop. This bottle is enough for you to use it hundreds of times."
"Ok!"
Henry said goodbye immediately, preparing to test whether this medicine is effective!
In the following month, Henry almost sang and sang in Williams Manor every night. And this kind of medicine does not know whether it can help Henry complete the reproduction of the next generation, but the aphrodisiac is true, and the effect is very powerful, it is not a problem to fight one against three!
But, so long has passed, but there is still no good news, Henry almost gave up. One morning, Henry was sleeping, and suddenly heard a cry of surprise from the toilet.
"Finally!"
"Honey, I'm pregnant!"
Hearing this, Henry bounced off the bed.
"I'm really pregnant!!!"
Henry didn't wear his shoes either, and rushed into the toilet barefoot. Princess Ulysses held the pregnancy test paper and wept with joy. She saw Henry coming and immediately rushed into his arms.
"The control line and the test line on the pregnancy test paper are all colored~lightnovelpub.net~ and the test line is clearly colored, indicating that you are pregnant!" Princess Ulysses showed Henry the test paper and said. .
Henry was very excited at the moment, and felt that the most precious gift God had bestowed on him. He hugged Princess Ulysses out of the toilet, then put her on the bed and wiped the tears from her face. Henry did not hide his physical problems, so as long as there is a glimmer of hope of pregnancy, Kailena, Helen and Princess Ulysses will work hard for it. After so many failures, and now finally succeeded, tears naturally flowed out.
"Ulysses, stop crying, we should be happy, the Williams family finally has a queen!"
"Yeah" Princess Ulysses nodded and nestled in Henry's arms.
At this moment, Kailena and Helen rushed in listening to the voice.
As soon as he came in, he asked loudly, "Sister Ulysses is pregnant?"
Henry smiled and beckoned to both of them, "It should be. The pregnancy test paper shows that she is pregnant. After a while, I will take her to the Gene Umbrella to make sure."
"It's great, congratulations Ulysses!!!" Kelena and Helen leaned over, happy for Ulysses, but also a little disappointed in their hearts. After all, the two of them are not pregnant yet.
I was busy all morning. After breakfast, Henry's family went to the Gene Umbrella Company together. After the most advanced equipment testing, it was finally confirmed that Princess Ulysses was indeed pregnant!
