Chapter 499 Slag Crusher
After discussing the circum-equatorial stratospheric railway.
Liu Zhifan reported another matter.
"The gold mining city in Antarctica has now increased its gold production capacity to 230 tons per month."
Li Qingye looked calm: "230 tons? Not bad, barely enough, it can accelerate the industrial coverage of gold-based thermoelectric materials ."
"I have asked various industries to submit application applications for gold-based thermoelectric materials, and they are currently being screened. I personally prefer to apply them in the production process." Liu Zhifan replied.
Li Qingye agreed with his idea: "The production stage? Well, we should really focus on the production stage, and the consumption stage can be put on hold."
After two layers of thermoelectric conversion, the thermal efficiency of gold-based thermoelectric materials can reach about 97%, which is very high.
Considering that electronic products, household appliances and the like have relatively few parts that use thermoelectric materials, and the cost of gold-based thermoelectric materials is relatively high, the cost-effectiveness is not high at this stage.
But it is different when it is directly applied to the production process.
For example, a nuclear power plant can double its power generation capacity by using gold-based thermoelectric materials.
Another example is a food processing plant, where many links require high-temperature heating or maintaining low temperatures over a large area. If gold-based thermoelectric materials are used, waste heat can be efficiently recovered and efficient refrigeration can be achieved at the same time, which can save a lot of energy.
Even though Homo Sapiens has a large number of nuclear power plants, nuclear reactors and nuclear batteries, and other energy sources are also very abundant, it does not mean that it can squander energy recklessly.
Improving thermal efficiency will help lower production costs and increase the overall energy supply scale.
If all of the nuclear power plants of the Homo Sapiens company were to switch to gold-based thermoelectric materials, the scale of these nuclear power plants would not change, but their power generation capacity would increase by 100%.
Technology is the core of productivity.
Even if the Sapiens Company does not add new power stations, the total power generation capacity can still be increased by about 82% by simply renovating the old power stations.
Without gold-based thermoelectric materials, to increase power generation by 82%, Sapiens would have to increase the total size of its current power generation equipment by 82% to achieve this goal.
After reporting on gold mining and the promotion of gold-based thermoelectric materials, Liu Zhifan continued:
"Chairman, recently many forces have secretly contacted us, hoping to sell some land to the company in exchange for some life-extending drugs and life-extending symbiotic worms."
"Oh?" Li Qingye sneered, "Your wishful thinking is working very well."
Carmen Lopez speculated: "It's probably because we recently bought those islands, and they thought we would covet those lands, so they tried to push our bottom line."
Li Qingye would not sell life-extending drugs and life-extending symbiotic worms to those Tianlong people just for that little piece of land: "Just reject it directly and let them give up on this idea."
"I understand." Liu Zhifan nodded.
At the same time, Li Qingye secretly took note of this matter and planned to ask Chen Jianxiong and Bagheira to strengthen the screening of migrant workers later.
In fact, Zhiren Company has always had a very clear rule for migrant workers or locally recruited employees, that is, no one with a major criminal record is allowed.
Petty thieves still have a chance to become employees of the Sapiens Company, but those who have committed many evil deeds will not be recruited by the Sapiens Company at all. The company may even take direct action against them and send them to Aoba University's crash course for further study.
After all, Aoba University originally recruited hundreds of thousands of losers in Hongsawadi, and then turned them into "loyal" and "versatile" soldiers.
Sending them to Aoba University's crash course is jargon within the Zhiren Company, and actually means sending them to become soldiers.
Now, Zhiren Company still retains the crash course of Aoba University.
Although the Sapiens Company accepts everyone, there are actually invisible barriers. Coupled with the pervasive intelligence gathering capabilities, it is basically a dead end to try to conceal your past and sneak into the Sapiens Company .
Especially for those scum who have committed many evil deeds, once they enter the door of the Homo Sapiens company, they basically have two choices: soldiers or fertilizer.
In the past, many scumbags tried to sneak into the Homo Sapiens Company, but after working there for a short period of time, they often died due to "accidents".
At the beginning, many people were not aware of the trick.
Until the number of missing or dead people became too high, and the number of "coincidences" became too great, those scumbags who knew about these situations but had not come to the Homo Sapiens company also began to realize that something was wrong.
After all, many scumbags have complex networks of relationships. After their peers conducted some investigations, such as making phone calls, sending videos, and emails, and failing to contact the scumbags who had infiltrated the Homo sapiens company, they realized the seriousness of the matter.
If only one or two things happened unexpectedly, then it can still be described as an accident.
But now, hundreds and thousands of scumbags have disappeared inside the Sapiens company, which is really terrifying.
Li Qingye personally gave the order to clean up the scum.
On the one hand, he doesn't like these scum. If these scum are allowed to enjoy the high welfare of the Homo Sapiens Company, then wouldn't the Homo Sapiens Company become a garbage collection station and a shelter for scum?
On the other hand, it is to purify human genes.
The development of human history has always been that bad money drives out good money, which makes it easier for bad people to survive and pass on their genes.
Therefore, when recruiting employees, the Homo sapiens company will conduct secret screening in secret to exclude the evil scum from the concept of "Homo sapiens", completely ending the continuation of their genes.
In this way, purity within the Homo Sapiens company is ensured.
After learning about this situation, those scumbags rarely dare to apply for jobs at the Smart People Company.
Only some wild scum, because they don't know the unspoken rules, would foolishly come to apply for the job and then be secretly dealt with by the Homo sapiens company.
Li Qingye is indeed very cold-blooded and ruthless in this regard. This may be related to his personal experience, and he seems to be somewhat intolerant of evil.
He also had great contempt and hostility towards the Celestial Dragons who were secretly testing the bottom line of the Homo Sapiens Company and trying to obtain life-extending drugs and life-extending symbiotic worms.
From the very beginning, Li Qingye hated some people very much, which meant that he was destined to never accept those scum.
Liu Zhifan and Carmen Lopez were naturally very aware of their boss's experience.
Especially Carmen, who came from a big family, he knew very well the fate of those scum members of the five major families in Luzon.
Liu Zhifan spoke carefully: "Mr. Chairman, there is another matter, mainly about the medical division."
Hearing this, Li Qingye had already guessed something: "Is it about the human gene recombination experiment?"
"Yes, executives now have different opinions on this experiment." Liu Zhifan answered very cautiously.
Li Qingye waved his hand: "Don't worry! In the short term, we will not conduct human experiments, at most we will conduct humanoid experiments."
"Is that so? I understand." Liu Zhifan breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, he was opposed to large-scale human gene recombination experiments. After all, this scientific research project was too dangerous and if not handled properly it might cause chaos and division among humans.
The current technology is not yet mature, and there are still some unpredictable situations. He doesn't want to see any Inhumans or mutants pop up.
