Xu Jie and Wang Junpeng racked their brains and carefully pondered the way to make money.
Most of the young people in this society do not support idle people. Even if they starve to death in the streets, they will only be despised for nothing, and no one will sympathize with them at all.
"... after 20 light-years, it would be outrageous to starve to death! It's worse than scum... "
Now the best way is to go to work in large state-owned enterprises, where wages are high and benefits are good.
However, their skills are a little bad. After playing for a few years, they forget their professional knowledge almost.
Even if there are job vacancies, enterprises do not have to them. Those recruited are not to provide for the elderly, but need to work. Without sufficient knowledge level, they will only lag behind.
The second choice is to go to university for further study!
Deep Space University and star University have restarted their enrollment plans for master's and doctoral students, responsible for cultivating more high-end talents.
When reading, there will be a lot of social practice opportunities and certain living subsidies. Anyway, it is impossible to starve to death.
However, it also needs an exam to study again, and they can't pass the exam.
"Don't read. What books do you read after playing for so many years? Are you bored?" Xu Jie muttered to himself.
"Then there is only one last choice, independent entrepreneurship!"
"Entrepreneurship? Create what? "
People have professional teams for newspapers, games, social networks, comics and movies. There is even the Millennium heritage of the earth. The video games, comics, movies, novels and all kinds of messy entertainment accumulated over the years are enough for people to play games and watch movies for ten generations!
Even if they can program, they are only cannon fodder level, and it is impossible to make a better game than on earth.
"No, in this case, it's impossible to compete with others." Wang Junpeng pondered for a long time and sighed.
"Or finance, bitcoin?" Xu Jie had a whim, "how about a computer to issue money?"
"Hair you big head ghost, is this useful? If you're full, who will hype this thing... You have to pay for electricity... "
When they were sad, suddenly the big screen on the square lit up and began to broadcast today's news broadcast. At this time, the central square in area a will be crowded with people. Everyone watches the news broadcast together.
The sense of social participation of new civilized citizens is still relatively high. In addition, the information flow is updated relatively quickly. If you don't watch the news, you don't know what has changed in the whole society.
A good-looking hostess is reading today's content on the screen: the first news is that the first commercial bank was officially established to promote economic growth, especially in terms of entrepreneurship loans. The current interest is almost zero. Of course, it is only limited to entrepreneurship.
A large-scale social project "gene matching" has obtained a large loan and started formal operation.
The second news is that the spacecraft will arrive at its final destination soon, and the first phase of geological survey will be launched soon!
When I heard the news, there was a lot of cheers on the playground.
Xu Jie and Wang Junpeng are even more worried. Some people have obtained loans and started a business. Others are going to work bravely on the surface. What can they do?
No job yet!
Satellite 1 is an earth like planet, slightly smaller than mercury and slightly larger than the moon. Its surface has a certain magnetic field, that is, the earth's core inside has not been completely cooled, and there is a certain probability of geological disasters.
Of course, according to the current observation results, the probability of global volcanic eruption is very low.
"... dear viewers, the main goal of this scientific research experiment is to select a place with more mineral resources, less geological disasters and close enough to the space elevator as the main development base... Our scientists have launched artificial satellites. Now let's invite Professor Xie, a geologist from deep space University, to bring us relevant introductions..."
After the news broadcast, everyone around began to get excited and talk about how to develop the first stage of industry, how to make iron and burn glass, etc.
Others say that it is impossible to make chips directly. There must be a gradual climbing process in the middle, which is impossible. Even with advanced lithography machines.
Some people even said that at present, they will not invest their main strength in making high-end chips. The population is too small, so they can only give priority to the development of more important survival industries
All kinds of boasting and farting make them experts in the Institute.
However, after listening to these dialogues, Wang Junpeng suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind and captured a kind of inspiration. This kind of inspiration is mysterious and mysterious. It pierces the meninges like a lightning bolt!
Make money!
A way to make money!
Wang Junpeng jumped up from the stool and said ruddy: "at present, the new civilization is not lack of science and technology, but experience, time and population."
"We can't afford every industry in a short time."
"Yes, what's the matter? We all know that the heritage of earth civilization can let us eat for a long time."
Xu Jie didn't have a good way: "the first thing to solve must be survival problems such as medical treatment, ecological environment and food. According to the government's plan, let us use the best biotechnology to improve life expectancy. Although it's a little uncomfortable, I also think it's more important than developing the mobile phone manufacturing industry... Who doesn't want to live 300 years longer. "
Wang Junpeng didn't seem to hear what he was talking about. He chattered endlessly and even couldn't help lowering his voice: "everyone is talking about chips and chips. Even if we know how chips are made, it's still too complicated to develop to the top. It requires a lot of human and material resources, and the industrial chain is too long."
"Look!" Wang Junpeng took out his mobile phone. "This is a smart phone produced on earth. After three thousand years of suffering, most of them can't use it."
This mobile phone was also the very popular "Warwick 888" space mobile phone at that time. Warwick company was specially designed for life in space. Some of these properties have shrunk, but in exchange for very high stability, they can even smash walnuts.
But after a star trip, it was completely damaged. According to Wang Junpeng's research, the battery is broken, but the core CPU is not damaged and can barely be used.
He turned on another mobile phone with a black-and-white screen. Like PHS, the products produced by the new civilization have only the most basic communication functions, such as sending text messages, making a phone call, logging in to his personal email, and there are no other functions.
From the quality point of view, the current production of consumer electronics is still far less than that brought on the earth.
"Moreover, it may not catch up in the next ten, twenty or thirty years. At present, the pursuit is to be able to use and pursue the most basic needs, not the pursuit of perfection. "
"Can we... Use waste? Ha ha, absolutely! "
His voice became louder and louder, but he deliberately suppressed it so that people around him could not hear it.
This rapid secretion of adrenaline makes the whole person's face like a red balloon, which can be exploded by poking it with a needle.
Xu Jie looked at him in surprise: "man, waste utilization? You don't want to pick up discarded industrial waste, do you? I don't want to pick up scrap iron! And we can't handle the garbage we pick up... We don't have this technology or equipment! "
"Pick up what garbage?!" Wang Junpeng smiled mysteriously: "I'm talking about recycling old mobile phones! Waste utilization, do you understand... We can't make mobile phones. Can't we assemble a mobile phone? "
Xu Jie was surprised. His mouth was open for a long time and didn't close. Then he reacted, and his heart began to be ecstatic.
Yes, the plan... Works!
Soon, Wang Junpeng and Xu Jie reported their business plans to the bank and wanted to use their personal credit to borrow a sum of money.
The newly opened bank is very efficient. It has just been reported in the morning and the money has been remitted to the account in the afternoon.
Immediately, the two began their careers as waste kings of "recycling old mobile phones" and "exchanging old for new".
This kind of work is actually very simple. After all the three damaged mobile phones are disassembled, the effective parts are reassembled, and maybe two good ones can be assembled. Wouldn't that make money?
As for how to assemble... It's very simple. As a technical house, as long as it's not too strange, it should be no problem.
Walking around the square with 100000 yuan of credit loan in their arms, Wang Junpeng and Xu Jie were very nervous.
Rented a temporary booth, made an advertising sign, and then hardened his head and shouted: "recycle old mobile phones, old computers, tablets... Recycle at a high price!"
This kind of shouting really attracted some attention of passers-by.
"How can I recycle my mobile phone? How much did you pay? "
It was a Warwick p999, a very popular space mobile phone on earth at that time, but there was no way to turn it on at present.
Wang Junpeng checked over and over, bit his teeth and said, "it looks like the maintenance place is good, 1000 yuan!"
"Only half a month's salary... Forget it, don't sell it." The man shook his head and would rather keep it as a souvenir.
"Hey, man, don't go, 1200, no more!" Wang Junpeng said hello.
"..." the man hesitated a little.
"1300, do not sell pull down. I'm bleeding! "
"Deal!"
In this way, after the first transaction was completed, the second and third loans of 100000 yuan were soon welcomed. In half a day, more than 100 electronic devices were recovered.
They came home with a lot of junk. They were in a mess with excitement.
But if the business fails, it will be miserable. 100000 yuan is not a small number. The money of the bank is the money of the government. No one dares not to repay the money. In such a small society, even if you want to be an old Lai, there is nowhere to hide.
"Don't break the chip, don't break the chip, don't break the chip!"
The chip is broken and can't be repaired at all. If only the battery or other parts are broken, it can be made up... Especially the battery, the technical content is not high. At present, humans can also produce some.
Burning incense and worshipping Buddha was common. Wang Junpeng repeated it several times in his heart. Then he picked up the screwdriver and began the process of maintenance and assembly.
They were almost red eyed and worked all night. Finally, at three o'clock in the morning, Wang Junpeng couldn't resist sleepiness and fell asleep.
When he woke up, he found his good friend Xu Jie sitting on a stool, eating instant noodles and crying.
"It's over, Lao Peng. It's over. I can only spell out 21 mobile phones... Only 21 can light up."
"... you can only get your money back by selling 5000 yuan each. You can't sell it. Everything is over! Sobbing... "
Wang Junpeng's heart was cold and he lost 70000 at once. That's no joke!
He tried to calm himself down.
He looked at the various parts on the table, piles of which had been classified according to the model.
"The main reason is that there are too many machine models, and all parts can't be used in common... Shit..."
At this moment, Wang Junpeng really hated the mobile phone manufacturers on earth. He even made so many models that they couldn't spell it.
"Don't worry. It's not necessarily a loss. Confirm how many parts are completely broken."
"Not many. Usually one or two cell phones break down. " Xu Jie replied: "it mainly focuses on the battery, ram and ROM... There are also some problems in capacitance and wiring, which I can't fix well..."
"Take a break... I'll go out and see how much I can get back."
Walking in the corridor leading to the central square, he kept thinking in his heart: "for mobile phones that can light up again, 3000 is people's psychological bottom line, and it is impossible to sell 5000, so..."
"Yes, those unused parts are also our wealth!"
This time, Wang Junpeng stopped recycling old mobile phones because there was no money in his account, but started the business of "repairing old mobile phones".
A row of machines that can light up soon became the best sign, but people hesitated when they heard about the high price. After all, it's just some assembled goods without any guarantee. How can it be sold so expensive?
The first guest to open was Zhang Yuan... Minister Zhang!
"How much is it to repair the mobile phone?" Zhang Yuan passed by and recalled that today was just the wedding anniversary... It seems good to buy a small gift for Lin Xuanxuan.
"What... 800? How much does it cost to repair the mobile phone? " After hearing the amount given by the other party, Zhang Yuan's green veins jumped on his forehead.
How much can I eat for 800 yuan? As the first customer, I can't be slaughtered as a fat sheep!
Wang Junpeng stubbornly explained that even if the other party is a minister, he can't sell at a loss: "the repair fee is 500, no less. We can't produce the broken parts of this mobile phone at present. We can only get them from other mobile phones, one less!"
"No less, no less will lose money!"
"Well, that's all right. You hurry up. "
Zhang Yuan painfully took out 500 yuan and looked at the other party's quick assembly and splicing. The parts in that bag should be recycled from old mobile phones.
"We didn't think of this..."
He thought in his heart that the people really have folk wisdom. It must be inappropriate for the government to do such trivial things, but this kind of self-employed business mode can release some hidden productivity and promote employment
After making trouble for half an hour, the broken mobile phone was really repaired by him, and the screen lit up again.
"Thanks!"
Seeing Zhang Yuan leave with great satisfaction, the surrounding onlookers are also ready to move.
Although the assembled mobile phone has no warranty, it still has very high advantages compared with the master machine.
It's a little too much for a smartphone to improve the quality of life. You can play games, watch movies, listen to music and do anything!
All of a sudden, Wang Junpeng was surrounded by a lot of people. It's more expensive. As long as it can be repaired... It can't be hot!
"Rich, rich!"
……
Although he spent 500 yuan, Zhang Yuan was still in a good mood. When he returned home and handed over the gift, he directly got a sweet kiss.
Beautiful music and excellent shooting ability make her happy like a little girl.
"Oh, I remember. It's those guys who 'trade in the old for the new'. Tut Tut, that's a good idea. They made a fortune all at once." Lin Xuanxuan could not help but make complaints about it. "But I can see that they can start again. Really... I miss it."
Their wages are generally only two or three thousand a month.
"How much is it to repair the mobile phone? It seems very expensive... "
"Five hundred yuan... It's not expensive!"
Lin Xuanxuan jumped up from her position and whispered, "ah, 500... What a loser! Don't buy this in the future. It's nothing if you don't play with your mobile phone. "
Zhang Yuan smiled and picked her up. "The money he made is not for spending. If he can be happy, what can he save!"
His eyes looked out of the window. The new civilization was full of waste. There was still a chance to make a fortune.
The main reason why these young people are so easy to get credit loans is that the government wants to set some examples to let more people see job opportunities and wealth opportunities... Everyone wants a better life. With an example, people's entrepreneurial enthusiasm has been fully mobilized.
Even those who have not found a job know that there is wealth in society. For example, the service industry or other industries. As long as you use your brain and use your own hands, you can make up for some gaps unexpected by the government and improve people's quality of life.
Of course, the new civilization is a new civilization after all. It's true that the first person who eats crabs will be rewarded. However, in this simple work, there will soon be competitors and imitators, which cannot be completely monopolized. In the end, everything still depends on technology.
He soon put the little thing behind him. Next, more importantly... The first planetary exploration project is about to start!
