Chapter 1205

.

Shi Lei proposed the design of a wristband wearable device in order to cooperate with the normal use of the LIP lens type information processor. He also proposed a number of modifications to Dong Guoguo's first-generation superpower source.

Dong Guoguo thought about Shi Lei's modification proposal for a while, and his eyes lit up. The originally ordinary first-generation superpower source would be full of fashion and technology after Shi Lei's modification proposal.

In the era of 7552, the anodized aviation aluminum-magnesium alloy almost did not appear in the field of electronic consumer products. If this material was made into the shell of the superpower source, it would be very futuristic.

"Old Dong, how do you plan to design the wristband wearable device?" Shi Lei did not say it directly, but asked Dong Guoguo.

Everyone had their own ideas. Although Shi Lei's vision was beyond this era, who could guarantee that Dong Guoguo did not have outstanding design ideas?

Dong Guoguo also understood Shi Lei's meaning. This was Shi Lei allowing him to express his own ideas freely. Then, they would combine the best parts of the design and finally merge it into the wristband wearable device.

Just like the first-generation superpower source, Dong Guoguo proposed the original design, and Shi Lei modified it.

"Boss, I think the design of the wristband wearable device is not too difficult. The key is, how should we design the internal parts? Not only do we need to integrate the mobile phone baseband SOC chip, but we also need to integrate a high-capacity battery, a pedometer, and a heart rate monitor. Also, because of the wristband's external shape, it will not be easy to change the battery of the wristband after we have highly integrated various devices. "

Shi Lei frowned. Dong Guoguo was right. Even if it was the wristband wearable device in the future, the biggest problem was the battery life.

If they could not design the wristband wearable device with a replaceable battery, the battery life would be a big problem.

"Old Dong, I will leave this matter to you! As for the exterior design, you can refer to the long strip design. The thickness and width should not be excessive. As for the production materials, you can experiment more and try to make various engineering versions. When the time comes, you can determine the specific problems. "Although Shi Lei knew the exterior of the product, he was not clear about the internal situation.

Therefore, the main designer of the wearable device was still Dong Guoguo. Shi Lei only made some suggestions.

"Alright!" Dong Guoguo responded somewhat helplessly. However, at least she had determined the general design idea, and Dong Guoguo almost knew the basic situation.

"By the way, Old Dong, what is the estimated production capacity of Supersource and LIP lens information processor?" Shi Lei asked a crucial question.

The LIP Lens Information Processor wasn't just for players in the World of Heroes, but also for users of all high-end electronic devices around the world. In his previous life, Apple's iPhone series sold around 755 million units worldwide.

Given that Apple's iPhone series was basically positioned at the top of the mobile phone field, Shi Lei used its sales volume as a reference to estimate the sales volume of the LIP Lens Information Processor.

Even if the sales volume of the LIP Lens Information Processor was reduced by ten times based on the sales volume of the iPhone series and divided by two, it would only be one-twentieth of the iPhone series' sales volume, which was still 65 million units.

If the production capacity couldn't keep up with the estimated sales volume of 65 million units, there would definitely be a big problem. When that time came, Shi Lei would probably have to rush to sell the LIP Lens Information Processor.

However, no matter what kind of excellent product it was, it would cause users to complain if they couldn't buy it for a long time. This was especially true for high-end electronic products. Users of these products didn't care about the so-called price-performance ratio at all. Rushing to buy something would definitely cause them to be disgusted.

"Boss, the Lin 'an underground base is currently building an automated machine production line. It is estimated to be completed by August 6st. If we use all 85 automated machine production lines to make the LIP Lens Information Processor, the monthly production capacity can reach 6.0 million units! "Dong Guoguo answered Shi Lei.

6.0 million units per month?

Shi Lei was deeply shocked by such a production capacity. "Old Dong, why are there so many?"

Dong Guoguo explained, "Boss, actually, the core technology of the LIP Lens Information Processor is not the assembly process, but the data processing chip and operating system software manufactured by AMD. AMD has its own wafer factory, they can manufacture the data processing chip very quickly. Moreover, most of the components we need are not produced by ourselves, but purchased from external sources, which also reduces our manufacturing pressure. "

"For example, we only need to provide the relevant mold parameters and design plan for the spectacle frame, and we can entrust other manufacturers to produce it. We don't have to worry about the quality control at all. We can choose many third-party manufacturers and let them compete with each other. In this way, we can effectively ensure the quality of the product. "Dong Guoguo explained.

"What other components are prepared to be handled by third-party manufacturers?" Shi Lei asked. He did not trust third-party manufacturers very much. After all, third-party manufacturers were equivalent to 'outsiders', and they lacked the responsibility to manufacture products.

"Spectacle frame, movable nose rest, flat lens, chewing gum type battery, charging base, data wire, bone-sensing conduction earphones, miniature projector, display prism, miniature HD camera, built-in data processing chip." Dong Guoguo read out a long list of components.

After listening, Shi Lei rolled his eyes. "Old Dong, just tell us, what are we going to make for the LIP Lens Information Processor?"

"Instruction manual and packaging box?" Dong Guoguo said in a joking tone, "The printing department under Rongcheng Military District specially contacted me. They can help to print the packaging box and instruction manual. Due to our cooperative relationship with Rongcheng Military District, I did not reject the cooperation proposal from Rongcheng Military District. However, boss, please rest assured, the printing department of Rongcheng Military District has already made a guarantee that they will not pass off shoddy products as good ones. I have also seen the samples that they printed, and there should be no problem. "

Shi Lei did not mind handing over the printing business to Rongcheng Military District. After all, it did not matter who he gave it to. He might as well give it to Rongcheng Military District as a favor. As long as the printing department of Rongcheng Military District could guarantee the quality, everything would be fine.

Although the profits from printing instruction manuals and packaging were not high, the estimated production of 65 million sets could still guarantee a sizable total profit.

"Yes! Old Dong, as long as the quality is good, there should be no problem! "Shi Lei said confidently. "However, Old Dong, the production capacity you mentioned is only the production capacity of the LIP Lens Information Processor, right? What about the Supersource? "

"Cough, cough. Boss, the production capacity of the Supersource is bigger! After all, we do not need to manufacture all the components ourselves. We are still only responsible for assembly. "Dong Guoguo was a little embarrassed.

According to Dong Guoguo's idea, the first generation of Supersource, whether it was the metal casing, the built-in power supply, or the SOC chip of the mobile phone, etc., would all be purchased from third-party manufacturers. They would not manufacture it themselves and would only be responsible for assembly.

This method could reduce the overall production cost. If they had to manufacture all the components themselves, how many production lines would they need to design?

Although assembly was the last step in the production chain, it does not mean that there was no technology involved in assembly. On the contrary, the assembly technology was very important. If the assembly was done well, it would be considered exquisite. If the assembly was not done well, there would be a lot of problems.

Shi Lei was relieved to hand over the LIP Lens Information Processor and Supersource to Lin 'an Underground Base's automated production line for assembly. If they relied on manual assembly, there might be a lot of assembly problems due to the unskilled workers. It was just like the PS9 produced by Foxconn in the future. Almost half of the PS9 machines in one batch could not be turned on.

Foxconn had screwed Sony over for that batch of PS9!

Shi Lei had set up his own assembly line in Lin 'an Underground Base and used fully automated mechanical controls to minimize the number of assembly errors.

"Old Dong, what is the monthly production capacity of the Supersource's single production line?" Shi Lei needed detailed data to calculate the production time.

"Because the assembly process of the Supersource is simpler, each automated production line can produce about 655,555 units per month." Dong Guoguo explained.

Shi Lei calculated silently. The monthly production capacity of the LIP Lens Information Processor was 05,555 units, and the monthly production capacity of the Supersource was 655,555 units. Lin 'an Underground Base had a total of 72 automated production lines. Including the original 8 automated production lines, there were a total of 85 automated production lines.

That meant the LIP Lens Information Processor and Supersource could be produced 6 million units per month.

The monthly production capacity was 6 million units and the total production was 65 million units. The total production time was 65 months. This was an ideal production cycle. However, there were only thirty automatic machine production lines in the Lin 'an underground base!

Lin 'an Underground Base could not transfer all 85 automated production lines to produce the LIP Lens Information Processor and Supersource. There was still the second generation of free-body operating platform and VR virtual gaming helmet to be produced. Other than that, there was still the AIP artificial intelligence prosthetics to be produced.

Although the automated production lines could be used everywhere, the corresponding mechanical arms needed to be adjusted to change the type of products. Adjusting the mechanical arms was not an easy task. Every production line needed at least 8 hours of continuous work to adjust the mechanical arms.

Even if the production lines could be adjusted, the production of multiple products could not be completed by 85 production lines. So, Shi Lei decided to increase the number of automated production lines.
