Tech Dominator Starts with Raising Kids-Chapter 259: Changes

During the day, Mo Jingchun mentioned to his uncle that they would be having drinks in the evening.

However, when it was time for dinner, Xu Pengfei and the others tacitly only drank some beverages.

Although it was just a simple meal, everyone’s hearts were warm.

Eating wasn’t the key point, after all, they had a cafeteria.

The important thing was that the boss treated them like his own people.

Time silently slipped into August, and the scorching summer made the employees in the technology park walk with a slight breeze in their steps.

Only in air-conditioned indoor spaces could everyone’s anxious minds calm down.

From the beginning of August, a large number of experimental equipment began moving into the laboratory building.

This laboratory building, apart from the two floors dedicated to the supercomputer and the top floor for Mo Jingchun’s lab,

had its other floors officially assigned to the company’s research personnel.

In the Graphene Battery R&D Center on the sixth floor, thirty PhDs and post-doctoral fellows were reporting to Mo Jingchun about the current difficulties in graphene battery research and the challenges needing solutions.

Only after solving all the challenges would there be hope for mass-producing graphene batteries.

Yes, it’s just a hope.

If the costs are too high, even achieving mass production wouldn’t matter much.

No buyers mean costs can’t be recovered.

Unless... it’s used in critical fields, with government backing.

Without a conference room in the lab, everyone just sat on chairs, discussing freely.

Listening to their debates, Mo Jingchun rubbed his forehead in headache.

"Everyone, pause for a bit. I only have some understanding of batteries, and I don’t quite get the folding structures you’re talking about."

"But everything in the world is interconnected. Our high-rise buildings in every city are so stable, so why not try to construct structures like building them?"

"Try more varied approaches, and answers will eventually come."

"Don’t put too much pressure on yourselves; battery research can’t be rushed."

Standing up, Mo Jingchun said with a smile, "I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll be going now."

"Remember my words, keep trying."

"The company can afford the cost of raw materials."

After Mo Jingchun left the energy research center, everyone in the lab resumed their discussions.

The suggestion by the boss, likening it to building a house, creating a brand new structure, became one of their discussion topics.

"Like building a house... uh... does anyone know how to do that?"

"No idea, but we can check online."

.........

In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.

The researchers, after thousands of experiments, without exception, all ended in failure.

On this day, Mo Jingchun held a finished graphene battery in the lab, looking at it for a long time.

Finally, he sighed and personally destroyed it.

For now, this thing couldn’t be circulated outside his lab.

Otherwise, it would be troublesome.

Mo Jingchun could only hope that those researchers on the sixth floor could do a bit more.

And soon be able to produce a stable finished graphene battery like he did.

"Zero, where has Candy gone again?"

Entering the elevator, Mo Jingchun casually asked.

"Boss, in the lobby on the first floor of the office building."

"In the first-floor lobby again, huh? Well, with playmates around, it’s no wonder Guoguo doesn’t play with Zhou Yaling."

Though the little one and Zhou Yaling are on the same level, the age gap is quite apparent.

Besides, Zhou Yaling has work, and often when following her, it’s just self-entertainment out of boredom.

Lately, things have been different.

With September approaching, many employees have already sent their children over.

The kindergarten is still installing electronic equipment.

Plus, with the hot weather, the lobby of the office building naturally became a children’s playground.

The adorable Candy was quite generous.

With Feiyan’s help, she moved all her toys to the first-floor lobby without reservation, sharing them with her little friends.

Since the number of children in the park started increasing, Mo Jingchun has been vigilant.

The security personnel at every gate of the technology park doubled from before.

Mo Jingchun instructed the newly hired professional kindergarten teachers to start early.

Currently, they don’t need to teach the children anything, just keep an eye on them.

After all, some little ones are still too young.

Many things they can’t handle themselves.

To further enhance security management, Mo Jingchun even had Zero keep a constant watch on the little ones, ensuring no one could take them out of the technology park without parental guidance for any reason.

"Boss, last month’s electricity bill came out, and the amount doubled."

Before he could exit the elevator, Mo Jingchun’s eyebrow raised upon hearing this.

Doubling is quite a lot.

You know, Candy Technology is already a major energy consumer in the county.

Someone mentioned to him recently that Candy Technology accounted for 26.9% of the electricity consumption in Huo County over the past few months, and it’s still increasing.

That’s quite alarming.

"Zero, did you do something again?"

Mo Jingchun’s first thought was that Zero used the supercomputer for large data calculations again.

After all, in the technology park, the supercomputer’s electricity usage ranks second, definitely not first.

Second to that are the servers.

Every month’s electricity bill is quite an astonishing number.

"Boss, I’m innocent."

"Last month’s hot weather had all the air conditioning running for cooling."

"Didn’t secretly do anything?"

"Really didn’t."

"Alright, I believe you."

If Zero really had human-like emotions and not just simulated ones,

Zero would definitely complain.

From analyzing Mo Jingchun’s facial expressions, it was clear he was being perfunctory.

Quickly crossing between the two buildings, even in that short time, Mo Jingchun felt like his head was getting oily.

Just entering the 1st-floor lobby, he heard the joyful laughter of children.

And of course, some were crying loudly too.

Looking at the few sofas in the 1st-floor lobby, Mo Jingchun appeared melancholic.

Once the kindergarten opens, these sofas would surely need a thorough cleaning.

In the distance, the delighted Candy, seeing her brother standing there,

came hopping over.

"Brother."

The little one’s head bobbed from side to side, clearly indicating how happy Candy was.

Mo Jingchun patted his sister’s head, saying with a smile:

"Guoguo, go play with your friends. Brother’s heading upstairs."

"When you’re tired, come up to find brother."

"Alright."

The little one, showing two rows of white teeth, hopped back happily.

Who wouldn’t like such an adorable little one?
