Shanghai welcomes young people, and young people pursue their dreams in Shanghai!
Shanghai Youth 50 Innovation and Entrepreneurship Research Institute and Yicai jointly produced and launched the "Shanghai Innovation and Entrepreneurship Youth 50 Forum Album" of "Science and Technology Innovation Generation Z", which tells the story of Shanghai youth's efforts to lead the future and pursue the aspirations of youth, and explores the "innovation code" for Shanghai, a youth development city, and innovative and entrepreneurial youth.
In the fifth issue, let's take a look at the story of Wang Jinyue, general manager of Shanghai Diantian Network Technology Co., Ltd.
Wang Jinyue: I am a native of Shanghai. At that time, it was said that going out to study was to go out of the village, turn over the schoolbag, strive not to be a farmer, and strive to say goodbye to this.
Moderator: What are you doing now when you walk out of the village and back into the village?
Wang Jinyue: You can see that there are a lot of robots here, all of which are some of my big treasures, which are the meaning and products of coming back.
Moderator: Why do you focus on entrepreneurship in the agricultural track?
Wang Jinyue: On the National Day of 2015, I wanted to ask a few friends to play ball, but [they] released the pigeons, so I had nothing to do and went to the fields to do some work. Then the old man in his orchard told me, you can't do it. I guess you're kidding, so I did it with them, and I ended up blistering. At that time he did two ditches, and I did half. Later, he told me with ridicule, helplessness, and embarrassment, who will plant the land after they die? This sentence pierced my heart on the spot. Then my idea is quite simple, I'll come back and prove myself.
Moderator: You should first use your own land as a pilot.
Wang Jinyue: Yes, I said that I want to build robots to farm the land, and everyone thinks you are crazy, and the countryside and robots are like Beauty and the Beast.
Moderator: Not quite a match. So when did you officially start Diantian Technology?
Wang Jinyue: It was officially founded in 2018. From the beginning of the cooperative, I started by building and screwing by myself, and then there was a spark of love, and the spark officially blossomed after that. After building this company and building a small family, then start to take root.
Moderator: Why did you think you could do this under all these pressures and puzzles?
Wang Jinyue: Since it has been decided, as we said, since you are in love, you should go without hesitation, otherwise how can it be called love, it may just be like.
Moderator: Are you all in?
Wang Jinyue: That's not just 10 points, maybe 12 points are all in. At that time, I quit my job to do this, but I ran out of money and sold my car and house. My parents brought me over as a son.
Moderator: What were some of the unexpected difficulties you encountered at that time?
Wang Jinyue: We went to the supplier, and he didn't do one or two parts. So far, many new R&D projects are calculated according to "units", and there is no advantage in quantity and price according to "units".
Moderator: Was anyone picking it up at the time?
Wang Jinyue: Ask grandpa to tell grandma, lower your posture, and turn Party A into Party B. Or is it the same sentence, what is the biggest advantage in love? Sincerity is nirvana. I'll tell you my thoughts and ideals, and I'll make you want to have a relationship with me.
Moderator: Empathy.
Wang Jinyue: Yes, let him help you without hesitation.
Moderator: In 2018, many robots on the market are medical robots, rehabilitation robots, logistics robots, etc., and it seems that agricultural robots have always been a blank. What is the biggest difficulty?
Wang Jinyue: It may seem like it's relatively simple.
Moderator: Like a car. Is it difficult to build an agricultural robot, or is it difficult to build a car?
Wang Jinyue: From the perspective of structural difficulties, it must be difficult for agricultural robots. Because it has a particularly large number of moving parts throughout it, the mechanical structure is particularly complex.
Moderator: What do you think Diantian Technology is going to do?
Wang Jinyue: From agricultural mechanization to intelligence, the original mechanization is completely repeated, there is no perception line, there is no program we write for it, spraying is indiscriminate spraying, and we will talk about it after all is done.
Moderator: What does intelligence look like now?
Wang Jinyue: For example, one acre of land used to be sown as much as it could, and a little waste was a little. Don't waste it now, that is, precision broadcasting, accurate quantity broadcasting. Even the degree of intelligence in the future is judged by data, which piece of land may have something to do in the future, then make subtle interventions. In this way, there is no need to produce excessive pesticide residues, worry about the problem of excessive salinization of the land, and let it form a complete closed loop of agriculture through intelligent means.
Moderator: There is a saying at the gate of your factory that in the future, everyone can blow the air conditioner and drink coffee to farm. Do you think you will believe it if you tell this to our farmer friends?
Wang Jinyue: I believe it, because they also want to do this, and they feel that farming is too hard. The elders told us what is the purpose of letting us children turn over their schoolbags and leave the countryside? It's just too bitter. But if we achieve the goal of drinking coffee and blowing air conditioning to farm, who wouldn't want their children by their side?
Moderator: After the villagers used agricultural robots, what kind of reaction did they have?
Wang Jinyue: More and more people are now (saying) this is really easy to use. For example, our farmland robot has 2 to 3 electricity costs for plowing one acre of land, and the original 25 oil costs for that land, plus labor costs, are very high. Sometimes the difference between ploughing one acre of land may be seventy or eighty yuan.
Second, some of the composite machines we made, 9 functions together, can be done at one time, and the original machine cannot be finished. This kind of machine may cost 300 yuan for several operations, but now the entire operation cost is less than 30 yuan, which reduces the cost.
Moderator: Agriculture does not account for a major part of Shanghai's economic development, what do you think are Shanghai's advantages?
Wang Jinyue: Shanghai's agriculture is a chemical reaction, is the window of talent policy and world exchanges, this is a convergence point, through this point, and then with Xinjiang, Heilongjiang Jiansanjiang, our vast region to form together, that is, Shanghai creation, Shanghai manufacturing, Shanghai agriculture service the whole country.
Moderator: This is the advantage of Shanghai's agriculture. You said that you have to keep doing one thing if you love something, what kind of expectations and plans do you have for a little sweetness?
Wang Jinyue: The robots we have now are more expensive, set up a flag, this year we want to build a robot of less than 10,000 yuan, with full automatic driving. I hope that the common people can afford to use it. The countryside gives birth to you and raises you, and farmers in the new era should bring new technology and new strength to fall in love with it.
