Chapter 526 Let more Americans lose their jobs!

Since August, many factories in the United States have begun renovation plans.

The workers of these workers were very surprised and gathered together to talk about it.

"Do you know what is going on? Why is the factory undergoing renovation again?"

"I don't know, but the scale of this renovation seems to be a bit large. I saw that many workshops are being rebuilt. In addition, a lot of production equipment seems to have been sold to other factories at low prices! I guess our factory may purchase Some new and more advanced equipment!”

"Well, once the factory was renovated, we were idle and our wages were reduced. Now, the U.S. economy is in recession. I wish I didn't have so much idle time and could earn more money every day."

"Oh, by the way, I heard that after the factory renovation is successful, the company may lay off some workers."

"Probably not...Last year we laid off a large number of workers, and now we are laying off workers again? How can the factory operate if there are no workers?"

Many American workers shook their heads in disbelief.

At present, the number of workers in the factory has dropped sharply, resulting in insufficient production capacity of many products. Therefore, in their view, the factory should still recruit new workers, so how can it lay off workers?

…

By August, the controversy over Li Zetian's campaign for the US President had passed.

The U.S. government didn't want to publicize this matter, so it told the media. News about Li Zetian's candidacy for U.S. president was rarely seen in newspapers or on television.

Outside the gate of Li's mansion, the reporters had already dispersed.

During this period, Li Zetian always went to Chronos Industrial, where the construction of the artificial intelligence robot factory was in full swing.

Once a large number of artificial intelligence robots are produced, workers will be replaced by robots.

In addition, what Li Zetian is more concerned about is that the future world's industrial Internet operating system-"Predix Cloud" has begun to take shape.

With Predix and artificial intelligence robots, a truly unmanned factory can be realized.

In addition, Li Zetian is also very concerned about AR, VR and 3D printing, and has invested a lot of money in it, especially 3D printing and AR, which have a wide range of applications.

The advantages of 3D printing are definitely beyond the reach of traditional manufacturing. As far as traditional manufacturing is concerned, the more complex the shape of the object, the higher the manufacturing cost. However, for 3D printers, the cost of manufacturing items with complex shapes does not increase. Making a gorgeous object with complex shapes does not consume more than printing a simple block. time, skill or cost. And a 3D printer can also print many shapes, and it can make items of different shapes every time like a craftsman. Of course, the advantages of 3D printing technology are not limited to these. It is far superior to traditional manufacturing technology in terms of material combination application, reduction of waste by-products, accurate physical replication, spatial design, and manufacturing speed.

AR is called augmented reality technology. It adds images, sounds, touches and smells to the natural world according to their existing forms. It is very similar to holographic projection. People can not only see and touch, and have a full sensory experience, but also receive and feedback all interactive.

In a previous life, Nintendo developed an AR game - "Pokemon Go", which allowed players to catch pets in the real world and became popular all over the world.

In addition, AR shopping will also become a new form of shopping in the future. For example, a user selects a pillow from an Internet store, then turns on the iPhone camera, clicks on the sofa where it needs to be placed, and the pillow will be placed in the corresponding position. The user can also Take a 360-degree look at whether the throw pillows match the sofa. Users can also "try on clothes", point the camera at themselves and take selfies, select a certain item of clothing, and the user's appearance in the clothes will be displayed on the screen of the mobile phone to see at a glance whether they look good or not.

Of course, even in physical clothing stores, AR technology can also be used, such as installing AR mirrors. Customers do not need to change clothes in the future, they can just "look in the mirror", which looks very high-end and classy!

…

A few months passed in the blink of an eye, and on November 20th, William and Tina's child was born - a fat boy weighing more than 8 pounds.

Seeing this baby, Li Zetian felt as if he had lived in another world.

"Dad, give the child a name."

William asked Li Zetian to name the child. Li Zetian thought about it and named the child Li Yue, which means Yue from time to time. This is a very meaningful name for Li Zetian.

Li Yue's appearance made this year's Christmas very lively. Not only Li Zetian's parents and father-in-law Yu Jingshan came here to spend Christmas, but even Bill Gates' family came here to spend Christmas.

It was lively and very festive.

In December, the U.S. presidential campaign was completed, and as Li Zetian expected, the previous vice president succeeded him. However, the American billionaire Trump also participated in this election and only missed the presidency by a narrow margin.

Li Zetian was very sad when he saw this.

Trump's wealth is so small that he almost became the president. However, I am thousands of times richer than him but I am not even qualified to run for president. This makes Li Zetian feel unbalanced. He is so cruel to Americans. ~The naked discrimination is very disgusting! ! !

At the beginning of the new year of 2011, many factories were completed.

After the workers had a wonderful Christmas holiday, they immediately received the termination contract from the factory.

"The factory actually wants to fire me?!" When the workers saw the termination contract, their first reaction was disbelief. If they are fired, who will the factory be handed over to produce?

Hundreds of thousands of workers were suddenly laid off. How could such a big event not cause a sensation?

At this time, Vice President Garr of the United States happened to officially take over the presidency.

The "big gift" Li Zetian sent him shocked him at the time.

Hundreds of thousands of people have been laid off and unemployed, which will not only affect these people, but will also lead to a decline in urban security environment, reduction in corporate revenue, bad debts in banks and other chain reactions.

At this time, the U.S. stock market had plummeted like an avalanche, and countless investors were panicking.

Wall Street analysts sighed: "The U.S. stock market has fallen again. As for the main reason, everyone must know that it is because Chronos Li laid off hundreds of thousands of American workers! So many workers have been laid off and unemployed, and the impact is huge. The United States will once again fall into Economic crisis!!! If Chronos Li had run for President of the United States, he would never have laid off so many workers."

American netizens @Li Zetian asked him on Weibo, why did you lay off so many workers?

Li Zetian sneered, why? Don't you know why I am? Aren’t you white Americans so awesome that you look down on us Chinese? Well, since you look down on me, then I will fire you American workers!

At this moment, reporters swarmed Li Zetian's home.

It is a pity that Li Zetian and his family have already traveled around the world and are now bathing in the sunshine in the Aegean Sea, so they missed the opportunity.

White House.

Gal looked worried. He looked at the people around him and asked, "Have you contacted Chronos Li?"

"Not yet. The mobile phones of Chronos Li and the people around him have been turned off. However, after our investigation, they are traveling in the Aegean Sea. Your Excellency, President, please rest assured that I have notified the people over there to look for it, and we will contact you immediately. he."

…

The blue sea is as beautiful as a dream.

Li Zetian stood on the top floor of the sea view villa, enjoying the sea breeze and drinking red wine. The corners of his mouth raised slightly and he said with a smile: "Haha, the Americans must be anxious now!"

At this time, Dongfang Yuqin came over.

"Here comes someone sent by the President of the United States."

"Okay, I understand. Let's dry him out first and ask him to wait for me in the lobby." Li Zetian said with a faint smile.

"Okay!" Dongfang Yuqin nodded when he heard this and couldn't help but laugh.

After half an hour, Li Zetian went to see the people sent by the President of the United States.

As soon as the other party saw Li Zetian, he immediately stood up from the sofa and greeted him enthusiastically: "Hello, Mr. Li, I am Abel Judson..."

However, before he could finish speaking, Li Zetian interrupted: "Okay, let's talk directly. I also understand your purpose of coming. Isn't it just the problem of hundreds of thousands of workers being laid off? I think the US government should be able to solve it. What do you want from me?"

Although Li Zetian interrupted him rudely, Abel Judson did not show any anger at all, but instead greeted him with a good face.

With a smile on his face, Abel Judson said to Li Zetian with a hint of compliment: "Mr. Li, you are really good at joking. Who doesn't know your influence? Even the U.S. government can't lay off hundreds of thousands of people." Solve it, but for you, solving this problem is just child's play. Besides, these people were your employees before... Mr. Li, do you think you can let them go back to work? "

Li Zetian shook his head: "Mr. Abel Judson, I think you also know that the recent economic downturn in the United States, coupled with foreign competitors, has caused the factory's revenue to plummet. I have to choose to lay off employees to reduce costs!"

Abel Judson said: "Mr. Li, even if you have to lay off workers, you don't need to lay off so many workers! As far as I know, there are many factories that don't even have workers anymore, so how are you going to produce products?" ?”

Li Zetian smiled lightly: "Using robots can not only reduce production costs, but also improve production efficiency. The average annual salary of workers is 50,000 US dollars, but 50,000 US dollars is enough for me to produce ten artificial intelligence robots. The artificial intelligence robot can work all day long It works 24 hours a day, and it may not break down after three to five years. Tell me, is it more cost-effective for me to hire workers, or is it more cost-effective to use artificial intelligence robots?"

"Artificial intelligence robot?!" Abel Judson said in shock, suddenly thinking of Eve in his mind.

Li Zetian smiled and nodded: "Although the low-end version of the artificial intelligence robot is not as advanced as Eve, it is enough to replace the work of ordinary workers. In addition, the factory also has industrial robots, intelligent production equipment and the industrial operating system Predix cloud. With these, the factory Dependence on workers is reduced to a minimum.”

Abel Judd became silent after hearing this. From Li Zetian's tone and words, he could tell that it was impossible for Li Zetian to let those workers go back to work.

However, Abel Judd still wanted to make a final push. He said in a deep voice: "Mr. Li, the layoff of so many workers has seriously affected the U.S. economy. You are also an American, so you shouldn't just sit idly by and do nothing, right? I beg you, Help solve the employment problem of these workers!”

Am I an American too?

Li Zetian curled his lips and sneered.

I am Chinese! ! !

Fuck you Americans, when did you really consider me an American?

"I'm sorry, Mr. Judd, I'm sorry that I can't do anything!" Li Zetian didn't try to be tactful with him at all, but refused outright.

Abel Judd looked very ugly when he heard this. He knew that he could not persuade Li Zetian, so he left. As soon as he left the villa, he called U.S. President Gall and told him the details of the conversation.

After hearing this, President Gal almost jumped up with anger.

…

Just after Abel Judd left, Li Zetian took out his mobile phone and immediately updated a Weibo post after turning it on.

"Don't be afraid, everyone, hasn't the new president already taken office? He will definitely help you solve your problems!"

As for me, I am not the president. I govern the country and care about my affairs. It is useless even if you beg me.

Come on, come on, the next project is an unmanned supermarket.

Our goal is: to make more Americans unemployed! ! !
