The technological empire begins with polymer materials

Chapter 44 News leaks and expansion plans



Just when Gao Yuan was about to go get something to eat, a message suddenly appeared in the forum, which made him stunned for a moment.

"The latest news! The silver frost bulletproof fiber developed by Kunlun Company based on the X3 type has been officially identified as the next generation of PLA body armor!"

"Is it true? The X3 model also has a bulletproof model?"

"This can still be false. The General Armament Department's first batch of orders placed a total of 200,000 sets, including body armor and helmets. It is said that there will be more orders in the future, as well as large armor for tanks and armored vehicles. , the entire industry chain is already making intensive preparations.”

"And tank armor? What are the properties of silver frost fiber?"

"Although the specific parameters are not clear, it is said that it will exceed the level of the third-generation PE bulletproof fiber that has not yet come out, at least three and a half generations."

"Three and a half generations!?"

"Stronger than bulletproof PE that is not yet on the market!?"

"Hahaha, bulletproof PE has not yet come out and is already outdated. I can only say that Kunlun Company has done a great job! Boss Gao is awesome!"

"If the news is true, the impact will be huge. It is equivalent to the PLA leading the world and entering the next generation of individual defense systems!"

Gao Yuan did not expect that the news would spread so quickly.

But this is also inevitable. There is no airtight wall in the world. In the first batch alone, the military placed an order for 200,000 sets. Such large-scale production involves at least dozens of factories all over the supply chain. It is possible to keep it secret. Sexuality is next to zero.

"Tank armor? Are you guys still counting on Yin Shuang to defend against the 155 howitzer?" Gao Yuan held his forehead and said, dumbfounded: "Although Yin Shuang is strong, it is only a good fiber after all, and alloys are needed to block cannonballs. And ceramics, fiber can carry artillery shells? The imagination of netizens is very wild."

In the forum, the talk of using silver frost to build tank armor is obviously a bit exaggerated, but this also proves how popular Kunlun Company is. Everyone believes that everything produced by Kunlun must be high-quality.

This post quickly attracted everyone's attention, and the comments were refreshed very quickly.

Gradually, some more sober netizens also discovered hidden worries.

"We cannot just be happy. Now that Pandora's box has been opened, the other side of the Pacific will definitely not give up."

"Yes, Boss Gao is making bulletproof vests for PLA. This matter has gone beyond the scope of commercial competition and is no longer a competition between enterprises."

"If I were the head of the Pentagon, I would definitely use state machinery. First of all, the next generation of body armor cannot be lost to China, and then, I would also carry out crazy suppression of Kunlun Company!"

"Using state machinery? It's too shameless. As far as I know, Kunlun Company is 100% privately owned."

"Hey, what age is this? Why are you still so naive upstairs? Since they started massacring the native Indians, when will you show off?"

"I think Kunlun Company has been in the spotlight recently in the chemical fiber field, but the more so, the more cautious we have to be. Maybe there will be a dimensionality reduction attack in North America at any time."

Gao Yuan was touched by the concern from netizens, but he was not actually worried about being targeted.

Because as the old saying goes, anything beautiful in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. Now that things have come to this, being targeted is inevitable, but it will only happen sooner or later.

There is no point in being nervous about something that will definitely happen, let’s just talk about it when the time comes.

After spending some time checking the posts in the forum, it was already past dinner time when Gao Yuan arrived at the restaurant.

Fortunately, as the company has more and more employees and is relatively far from the city, most employees live in the company. To provide everyone with convenience, the canteen has now been opened 24 hours a day.

Gao Yuan ordered a plate of dumplings, two side dishes, a bottle of Tsingtao beer, and had two drinks alone.

The plate of dumplings was quickly wiped out. Gao Yuan wiped his mouth with satisfaction and returned to the office to concentrate on organizing papers. It was not until late at night that he fell asleep in the lounge next to the office.

Early the next morning, there was a conference call with strategic partners.

According to the agreement, a conference call will be held every Tuesday and Friday. As for the content of the meeting, Gao Yuan mainly listens to everyone's progress and adjusts the conflicts that arise in the group.

It sounds like Gao Yuan wants to control everyone, but in actual operation, this is indeed the case. He strictly restricts every move of strategic partners and is ready to kick them out of his camp at any time.

Just as Gao Yuan never believed in letting some people get rich first, he also never believed in the conscience of capitalists.

After all, capitalists have no motherland. With some clever financial operations, a Chinese can be turned into a foreigner and the money stored in China can be transferred to foreign banks.

But ordinary people are destined to be tied to this land, unable to move from generation to generation.

The situation seems to be going well. As strategic partners continue to expand globally, Kunlun Company's market share is also rising rapidly like a rocket.

In addition to strategic partners, Kunlun Company also has ordinary business partners. Once a strategic partner does not perform well enough, it will be replaced by other candidates.

Although this last-place elimination system is a bit cruel, it has greatly improved everyone's sense of competition and enhanced their combat effectiveness.

The conference call went very quickly and ended in only about forty minutes.

In the afternoon, Cao Feiyu came to Gao Yuan excitedly and told him that a suitable office building had been found and it was right next door.

After hearing this, Gao Yuan frowned, "Yunmei Knitting has closed down? Why didn't I hear about it?"

Cao Feiyu said with a smile: "We are going through the process, and it is estimated that there will be an official announcement in a few days."

Gao Yuan couldn't help but sigh. The Yunmei Knitting Factory next door was once a local star company, but now it has collapsed. It is true that industry is difficult to do and things are unpredictable.

Cao Fei's eyebrows were full of joy and he said: "You always ask me to go to Hangzhou to look for office buildings, but you don't even think about how expensive the housing prices in big cities are."

"Although our neighborhood is an industrial zone, it is only a few dozen kilometers away from Hangzhou. It is right in the middle of the triangle area formed by Xiaoshan Airport, Hangzhou South Railway Station, and Shaoxing North Railway Station. It is next to the expressway, making it convenient to go anywhere."

"Besides this, there is another biggest benefit, which I'm afraid even you haven't thought of."

Gao Yuan scratched his head, "What benefits are you referring to?"

"Enterprise bankruptcy, land annexation!" Cao Feiyu said: "The industry has been in recession in the past few years, and many factories cannot survive. The Meiyun Knitting Factory next door is an example. When the time comes, we will buy the land and office buildings. By knocking down the wall, the two factories can be merged together."

"As for the cost, even if we demolish the old unused factory buildings and build a brand new test base, it will save much more than going to a comprador building in a big city."

"Look around you, how many factories are going bankrupt, have gone bankrupt, and are about to go bankrupt. This is the basis for our rapid expansion and mergers. I have talked with people from the industrial zone management committee, and they are also very happy to let us take over the bankrupt businesses. Where is the company?"

"After all, things are not what they used to be. Locally, we are already a big profit and tax owner. No matter which yamen our people go to work in, they are provided with good tea and water. The local authorities are not afraid of us asking for land now. They are afraid of us asking for land." Let’s run.”

Well…

Gao Yuan was slightly surprised. Based on the idea that hearing is believing, seeing is believing, he and Cao Feiyu went to take a look at the idle Meiyun Knitting Factory next door.

The area of ​​​​70,000 square meters, plus the 15,000 square meters here, will be a large area after opening up, with two office buildings, one dormitory, and the rest are factories.

Although it looks relatively crude now, it has huge potential. At worst, the factory building will be demolished and rebuilt. Compared with the tens of thousands of yuan per square meter of office buildings in big cities, the reconstruction cost is only a small amount.

"Okay." Gao Yuan no longer insisted on the original idea, nodded and said to Cao Feiyu: "We will buy the factory next door, keep the office building and dormitory, and knock down the factory building to rebuild."

After returning to the office, the two people carefully calculated that the construction of traditional concrete buildings was slow and noisy, so they might as well go directly to modular buildings.

"By the way, how is our website construction going?" After discussing the office building, Gao Yuan asked Cao Feiyu again.

Cao Feiyu frowned, "Are you really planning to start a new business? How about you think about it again?"

Gao Yuan shook his head firmly, "I have thought about it very clearly."

"That would offend a lot of people." Cao Feiyu sighed softly.

Gao Yuan said disapprovingly: "It is only natural for me to put my own papers on my own website."

"Anyway, I've made up my mind. I've even thought about the name of this website. I'm ready to launch it."

Cao Feiyu curled his lips. He knew that Gao Yuan had a stubborn streak in his temper. Now that he had made up his mind, no matter how much he said, it would be in vain.

It's just that in this way, Gao Yuan ignored the Western academic circle, but he also didn't give face to the Chinese academic circle, which was tantamount to offending both sides.
