Global Monopoly of Technology

A second-tier city in China.

A young couple are arguing at the entrance of a staircase. The man is about 27 years old and is a courier with a monthly income of 9,000 yuan and occasionally 10,000 yuan.

But extremely hard.

"Do you know that today is my birthday? Can't you take a leave?" his girlfriend asked angrily.

"Xiaoya, I told you that today the company has a very important meeting, and I have to attend it. This will change my future life and our future life." Xu Lecheng explained helplessly: "You know the Riviera Announcing the big..."

"Don't, don't say that, what kind of meeting can there be in a broken courier job?" His girlfriend interrupted him and asked sarcastically, "I just want to ask you, is it more important for me or for work?"

Xu Lecheng replied, "Of course you are important."

Girlfriend: "Don't lie to me. If I am important, you will never go to any bad meeting on my birthday."

Xu Lecheng wanted to cry but didn't want to argue with her: "Okay, work is important."

Girlfriend: "I knew that you men didn't tell the truth."

Xu Lecheng was sullen: "I don't work, do you pay back your loan and white paper every day? Okay, then I'll resign to accompany you."

Girlfriend: "You mean I support you?"

Xu Lecheng finally couldn't bear it anymore and said: "Lin Ya, don't think that I'm being nice to you, you have to make an inch, just do it, okay, didn't you say goodbye every three days? Say hello to you."

After putting down such a sentence, he extended it, leaving his ex-girlfriend at a loss and stayed where he was. When he reacted, he had already seen Xu Lecheng gone, and suddenly cried loudly: "Xu Lecheng, you scumbag—!"

Thinking that the Huabei borrowing in her mobile phone still had 70,000 or 80,000 yuan to be repaid, and that she was in debt again, she suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem, and she collapsed.

Silently sent a circle of friends: Alas, no one can understand me, after all, I still resisted everything alone.

...

Xu Lecheng felt inexplicably relieved for a while, tried his best to get emotional things out of his mind, and went to the company. The express company he works for is called Hongyun Logistics, which is a small and medium-sized local logistics company.

After about an hour,

Xu Lecheng came to the company, and other colleagues didn't send the package, they were all present.

With the arrival of the staff, the director who presided over the meeting said: "I think everyone has more or less known some news, our company has reached a cooperation agreement with Dabai Fund, a subsidiary of the Côte d'Azur, and will introduce Dabai robots to replace your jobs. "

When Xu Lecheng and other couriers heard the news, they were not shocked. Instead, they were vaguely looking forward to it, and even a few people couldn't hold back and were very excited.

Now that the information is so developed, they have long known about the big announcement released by the Cote d'Azur, but they did not expect that their small logistics company would be so lucky to be selected and become the fastest group of logistics companies to catch the express train of technological change.

The supervisor continued: "So you are going to be fired, but you have the right of first refusal to buy Dabai robots. This is unemployment compensation for you, which means that Dabai robots that will act as couriers in Hongyun Logistics in the future can give priority to your Dabai robots. Work, the income is yours, and the money earned by Dabai will be divided between you and Dabai Fund."

In this regard, everyone is meaningless. Although the Dabai Fund has taken away 30% of the income, Dabai replaces his own jobs, and the total income created can even double, or at least increase by about 70%.

Because Dabai Robot can work around the clock, except for charging time, it can work the rest of the time. In other words, it will actually generate more income than itself.

The cost of delivery remains unchanged, and Hongyun Logistics does not share the revenue from it, but the total revenue of the same company also increases, because Dabai robots can work around the clock, and the express company makes more money, and of course it is one of the beneficiaries.

Small and medium-sized express companies such as Hongyun Logistics do not have much bargaining power. If they do not join the trend of this era of change, let alone make more profits, the company will die.

Big Macs like the Côte d’Azur are not something they can compete with. The existence of that kind of Big Mac can force the progress of human civilization…

Now I don't know how many logistics companies are scrambling to bid.

The supervisor continued: "But don't make a mistake this time, Dabai is not leasing to you, but you buy it directly. It costs 600,000 yuan. You can pay in installments. Dabai Fund has established cooperative relations with major commercial banks. You only need to prepare all the supporting documents, and the bank can lend you a loan."

"However, even if you can come up with a whole number of 600,000 yuan, I still recommend that you take the loan channel. The current inflation rate is high and the currency is depreciating rapidly. The current 600,000 yuan is worth much more than the 600,000 yuan in 20 years. Of course, this is just a personal suggestion, you make up your own mind about the specifics."

At this time, a courier brother said cheerfully: "Boss, you think too highly of us, there is a deposit of 6 yuan that is sky-high, 600,000..."

All of a sudden, everyone burst into laughter, but it was inexplicably a little sad.

At the end, the supervisor said, "That's all for today's meeting. Those who are sure to buy Dabai robots and replace your existing positions come to my office to register. It's all voluntary, but I want to make it clear that we will send the dispatchers in the next three times. Fire them all in a month, replace you guys with robots, and that's it."

Undoubtedly, the result was that all dispatchers such as Xu Lecheng and others registered without hesitation.

"The archbishop is simply our reborn parent. I scolded him before, I apologize, although he can't hear it."

"Look at your virtue~"

"Cut~, you are the one who scolds the most."

"Hey, I said, when Dabai takes over, everyone will be freed, what are your plans?"

"Let's not talk about plans, just have a good year of eating, drinking, and having fun, and enjoy the feeling of being a local owner."

"Be careful of your opponents."

"Haha~~"

"Thank you for the progress of the times, for the advancement of technology, and for the Archbishop!"

Xu Lecheng has also completed the registration, and Hongyun Logistics will go to the banking business to handle it. Major commercial banks are also trying to win customers. The competition is just as fierce. Dabai Robot is a high-quality loan business with a very low non-performing asset rate. The bottom line, the country's endorsement, is simply a guaranteed profit.

Another big white robot has not been delivered yet, and the company's logistics business has to rely on manual delivery for a period of time.

Xu Lecheng also chose to take the loan process, and he didn't have much money on him. The money he earned from work over the years was basically lost to his girlfriend.

The annual interest rate of Dabai Robot’s loan is 5.15%, and the loan is repaid in the same amount of principal. The loan period is 20 years. The first month’s repayment is 5,064 yuan, and the monthly reduction is 10.73 yuan. The total repayment for 20 years is 907,712 yuan. Among them, the principal is 600,000 yuan, and the interest is 307,712 yuan.

No wonder everyone agreed without hesitation. Suppose Dabai Robot earns a net income of 10,000 yuan a month after deducting taxes and shares, and excluding the monthly loan repayment of about 5,000,000 yuan, there are still more than 5,000 yuan.

Xu Lecheng firmly believes that he can earn between 9,000 and 10,000 yuan in a month. Dabai works at least 20 hours a day, and there is no problem in earning 15,000 yuan. He is very optimistic about this.

In other words, even if he doesn't do anything in the future, his Dabai can create an income of about 10,000 yuan for himself.

He never dreamed that such a good thing would one day fall on his head. He was still worried about the unemployment crisis a while ago, and he has been thinking about what else to do if he is unemployed.

It doesn't seem to be able to do anything.

Anything you can do yourself can't compete with a robot.

For high-end jobs that robots can't do, he is not competent at that level. In addition, he has a rude and unreasonable girlfriend. Xu Lecheng feels that his future in life is bleak.

But fate is so wonderful, and it takes on a new look overnight.

The current social public opinion is the other side of the trend. Tens of millions of jobs in the logistics industry will soon be replaced by Dabai robots, and the taxi industry will soon be replaced.

Originally, the country has been trying to stimulate consumption and make money flow in the whole society, just like blood circulation.

But the fact that consumption has not been able to go up is not because people have no money to consume, nor is it because they are unwilling to consume, but because they are afraid to consume and make emergency reserves for future worries.

This is not friendly to the development of the economy. If people do not consume, companies will have no orders, and companies will lay off employees if they do not have orders, which will then cause people to be even more afraid to consume. Such a vicious cycle will lead to the Great Recession.

Now that the large-scale introduction of Dabai robots into the market, the upstream and downstream manufacturing industries of the huge industrial chain have orders, which also brings new and more jobs, and consumption on the other side will also be stimulated.

The consumption of these 10 million couriers alone will have an immediate effect on the economy. They can earn tens of thousands of yuan every month by lying still. Are these couriers afraid that they will not consume?

They were overwhelmed by the suppression of life, and now that the seal is lifted, they will have a revenge consumption.

With this consumption, other industries are immediately brought to life, and the entire economic situation can move towards a healthy positive cycle.

And most of them should choose re-employment, and the overall social wealth has been created more.

This is what Xu Lecheng thought. With the stable income brought by Dabai Robot, he did not choose to eat and wait to die. He could calm down and study with peace of mind. The rapid development of science and technology has made him realize that he does not improve society by himself. Competitiveness, when the next inflection point of the disruptive cycle arrives, it may not be as lucky as it is today.

And he also thinks better. He dares to think about the life he didn't dare to think about before, so he can improve himself with peace of mind without worrying about the future, and then find the next job, which can bring two incomes .

Compared with the depression when he broke up in love two hours ago, Xu Lecheng is now full of expectations for his future life.

Now the whole network is hotly discussing Dabai robots entering the logistics industry to replace 10 million couriers. According to the announcement issued by Cote d'Azur, Dabai Fund aims to basically replace 10 million human couriers by around 2021 and realize unmanned logistics. change.

Strive to use 20 years to replace the large, medium and low-end jobs in the country, and release the advanced productive forces step by step.

This time, a brand new and unique social phenomenon has also been created. Not only did the unemployment of a group not cause turmoil and anger, but everyone was happy, and they collectively celebrated their unemployment and happiness. At the same time, it also caused the whole people to express the envy of this business group.

A few months ago, this was a fantasy.

Now everyone is expecting Luo Sheng to make them unemployed as soon as possible.
