Chapter 338 Brave New World Ends(2/3)
As soon as Liu Meizhu turned on the TV, the system automatically entered fool mode and directly displayed the first Chinese channel of Homo sapiens. She could only change channels through the remote control instead of selecting various functions.
"This remote control is actually for the elderly. If you want to use other functions, here..." Zhao Jingcai said as he opened the drawer of the TV cabinet and took out a small box from it.
After opening the box, there is a smart remote control, a wireless mechanical keyboard, a wireless mouse, and a sound-controlled remote control.
After making the milk, Chen Yanxiu handed the bottle to his wife, and then played with the keyboard and smart remote control.
"With these accessories, this TV becomes a computer."
Zhao Jingcai said with a smile: "The production line of this kind of TV is originally shared with the computer production line. In addition, this sound-controlled remote control is also for the convenience of the elderly and children."
He picked up a voice-controlled remote control similar to a karaoke microphone and pressed the red record button: "I want to see real happiness."
After speaking, he released the record button.
Suddenly a floating window popped up on the TV page.
[Searching...]
[Retrieval completed, the first episode of "True Happiness" is being played for you...]
Soon the TV screen entered the first episode of "True Happiness".
Then Zhao Jingcai pressed the record button again: "Episode 5."
Then the system automatically jumps to episode five.
"It's a good function. It's very friendly to illiterate old people and children, but can this thing recognize dialects?" Chen Yanxiu asked curiously.
Zhao Jingcai nodded: "Yes, as long as the TV is connected to the Internet, the data analysis center can analyze thousands of common dialects. Even if you speak Hokkien, the system can recognize it."
"It seems that the company's technology in translation and artificial intelligence far surpasses Google!"
"Of course, Google only has a few employees. Its three network technology subsidiaries, Yemai, Zhiyun, and Magnetic Spectrum, are giants with 870,000 employees."
Chen Yanxiu was not surprised by the size of employees in various subsidiaries of Homo sapiens.
After all, the company's current total number of employees has reached 800 million, minus the old, weak, sick, and disabled. In addition, the average age of the population in the control area of Homo Sapiens Company is very young, with at least 600 million young adults.
Therefore, the number of employees in each subsidiary is unprecedentedly large.
Among the major subsidiaries of Homo sapiens, the three major construction engineering groups have the largest number of employees, totaling about 83 million.
This is one of the reasons why Homo sapiens can quickly promote a large number of infrastructure projects. In old areas like Hongsawady, various supporting facilities are already very complete.
Johor, which was previously part of Malaysia, only had relatively complete subway facilities, while other supporting facilities were still being improved.
The supporting facilities in Kampung City are better because the electronics industry is given priority here.
As the proportion of new humans further increases, the talent advantage of Homo sapiens companies in various industries is further amplified.
For example, Chen Yanxiu is concerned about the dialect translation problem. As long as dozens of new human employees cooperate and find some new humans who can speak this dialect, it will take less than a month or two to complete the construction of a dialect's speech translation database.
This kind of human investment is difficult for Google to achieve.
Of course, arrogant European and American companies will not set up a translation project team specifically for a small language.
But Homo sapiens companies can and must do this.
For example, in Africa, Latin America, and various parts of Asia, the Internet subsidiaries of Homo sapiens companies can now suppress Google, YouTube, Twitter, and Must Die.
The core competitiveness of the Homo sapiens company lies in its deep cultivation of small languages and dialects.
As long as Homo sapiens' Internet subsidiary enters a region, they will quickly create a localized version based on the local language.
At the same time, a professional docking department will be set up to serve users of small languages.
No matter how powerful English, French, Spanish, Portuguese and German are, they are only the mainstream languages in Europe and America.
In the vast Asia, Africa and Latin America, there are many people who speak various dialects.
For example, Tianzhu, which has 1,652 languages and dialects, has more than 22 official languages.
No matter how powerful Google is, there is no way to build a special database for 1652 languages and dialects, but Homo sapiens can do it.
Therefore, in small-language areas, European and American Internet companies cannot compete with Homo sapiens companies.
The high-quality professional talents that both parties can invest in are completely different from each other.
This is also the core method by which the Homo sapiens company can now set off a wave of public opinion in Asia, Africa and Latin America, and fight cognitive war, cultural war and public opinion war with Europe and the United States.
By being able to use the local language, local people's resistance to Homo sapiens companies will be much reduced. This advantage has a huge bonus effect in guiding public opinion.
In fact, the emphasis on minority languages is also to further consolidate employee loyalty within the Homo sapiens company.
The reason why the natural employees of Homo sapiens companies are also very loyal to the company is that they feel that they are valued and respected in their work and life.
If those natural persons are forced to use a certain language all of a sudden, they will definitely feel uncomfortable.
However, the Homo sapiens company, which has 150 million new human beings, can fully take care of natural workers who speak small languages, reducing communication barriers.
Therefore, in the daily work within Homo sapiens, you can often see supervisors, team leaders, factory directors, managers, etc., speaking several languages proficiently.
This also makes many natural employees more convinced of their bosses. After all, they can speak several languages and look like they are no ordinary people.
…
While watching TV, Chen Yanxiu asked: "Jingcai, do you speak Malay here in Johor?"
"Huh?" Zhao Jingcai scratched his head, recalling the experience of the past month or so. He suddenly discovered that these days, he rarely encountered language communication barriers.
"How should I put it? I all speak Chinese here, and many of my colleagues around me can speak Chinese. However, some employees can also speak English or Thai, but there are always a few people in each department who can speak multiple languages, so there is no need to worry.
Communication issues.”
"So that's the case, then I'm relieved." Chen Yanxiu breathed a sigh of relief.
Liu Meizhu wiped her daughter's mouth: "There should be many people here who can speak Chinese. I just met my next door neighbor and her husband can speak Chinese."
"This is better. You don't have to worry about communication problems in the future, and your life will be very convenient." Chen Yanxiu looked at the time and found that it was already three-thirty in the afternoon.
He turned around and asked, "Jingcai, would you like to have dinner together tonight?"
"No, you must be busy cleaning the house tonight. I will treat you to dinner next week." Zhao Jingcai shook his head.
Chen Yanxiu also felt a little tired, so he walked down the slope and said: "Then we will make an appointment next week. By the way, leave a number and email address..."
The two of them left each other's mobile phone numbers, leaf numbers, and email addresses.
After sending Zhao Jingcai away, Chen Yanxiu quickly cleaned up the house.
After opening the closet in the master bedroom, he found that there were brand new bedding, sheets and pillows inside. He hung up his daily clothes, took off the dust covers covering the furniture, and put the sheets, quilts and pillows on them.
It took me an hour and a half to tidy up the house.
Chen Yanxiu, who was physically and mentally exhausted, came to the large bathtub in the bathroom to take a bath.
Liu Meizhu, who was looking after the child, took a few small benches from the storage room, and the mother and son rested on the balcony.
Liu Meizhu looked at her phone. In the employee account on her phone, she saw her salary and comprehensive subsidy for this month, which totaled 650 gold yuan.
The salary payment of Homo sapiens is divided into two parts.
Part of it is the basic salary and comprehensive subsidies, which are paid on the first of every month.
The other part is overtime pay, performance pay, and bonuses, which are paid at the end of each month.
Liu Meizhu applied for a job as a manicurist, and when she first joined the job, her salary was D4.
Chen Yanxiu is a chip tape-out inspector, and he gets C-4 treatment as soon as he joins the job.
Looking at the joint family property line on the employee's account, the couple currently has a total balance of 3,800 gold dollars.
Liu Meizhu is a budget-conscious woman. She used to manage the money at home. Now that she has come to live in Kampong City, she needs to make a new income and expenditure plan.
There is a ledger function on the employee account. After opening it, she started to list various expenses.
While listing the expenses, ask the system wizard some information.
Housing rent: 120/month
Utility bills (100 cubic meters of water per month, 1000 kWh): 30/month
Gas fee (1000 cubic meters per month): 10/month
Communication fee (two mobile phones): 20/month
Wired network (including landline): 5/month
These are fixed expenses, totaling 185 gold dollars.
Of course, if you feel that the fixed package of water, electricity and gas is not cost-effective, you can also choose pay-as-you-go.
Usually tap water is 0.07 per cubic meter, residential electricity is 0.03 per kilowatt hour, and gas is 0.02 per cubic meter.
This pay-as-you-go billing is more cost-effective for those who don’t often cook, bathe, or live at home.
And Liu Meizhu feels that she must cook a lot at home, so it would be more cost-effective to choose a fixed set meal.
As for other transportation expenses, food expenses, daily necessities, cosmetics, clothes, milk powder and diapers, she also carefully calculated the local prices.
Even if she chooses better food and daily necessities, the total monthly expenditure for a family of four still remains at about 670 gold yuan.
In other words, the family's monthly balance is still about 3,130 gold yuan.
