Completion

Two days later, in the rental apartment Ning Yifan was living in, the sofa, TV cabinet, coffee table, and other furniture were all moved to the corners of the room. The cleared space was filled with various packages, large and small, leaving only a narrow corridor for passage.

As the last few boxes of projector casings were placed in the kitchen by Ning Yifan and the deliveryman, the final preparatory step for producing projectors was complete.

Taking a bottle of ice water from the refrigerator, Ning Yifan handed it to the deliveryman and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Have a cold drink."

"This is my job, it's not hard work. Thank you, and I wish you a pleasant life." The Shunfeng Express deliveryman said gratefully as he took the water.

"Take care!" The door closed as the deliveryman left.

Ning Yifan looked at the room filled with various items and sighed softly.

The projector workshop was officially established. He hoped this would be the last time he used a rental apartment as a workshop!

When he had money in the future, he would definitely build a massive production factory!

Without wasting any more time, Ning Yifan opened a package of projector casings and carefully checked if they were manufactured according to his production blueprints. After confirming there were no issues, he nodded and walked into his workspace with satisfaction.

The workspace was vastly different from a few days ago. The central workbench was equipped with a fully automatic brushless electric screwdriver, a small industrial-grade multifunctional repair station, a large box of specific screws needed, and other tools.

Around the room, projector components were neatly packed in cardboard boxes, categorized for Ning Yifan's easy access.

This workspace was still too rudimentary, barely sufficient for Ning Yifan to produce projectors.

In the future, when he had money, Ning Yifan envisioned building his own private large-scale repair and manufacturing workshop. It would be at least a thousand square meters, with one entire wall dedicated to tools of various sizes, from wrenches and screwdrivers to welding stations, sandblasting machines, air compressors, gantry cranes, CNC lathes, punch presses, milling machines, machining centers, small metal smelting furnaces, chemical reactors, 3D printers, and so on.

That would be Ning Yifan's dream tool room, equipped with the most advanced equipment available. The estimated cost would be between tens of millions and hundreds of millions. With all these cutting-edge tools, Ning Yifan could manufacture anything he desired, from bicycles and motorcycles to cars, tanks, and airplanes. He could even use these tools to produce more advanced and precise tools, creating black technology mechs and other technological products.

Of course, all of this was currently just an idea for Ning Yifan. The condition for realizing this idea was to be sufficiently wealthy!

Focusing on the present, Ning Yifan looked at the parts filling the room, rubbed his wrist, and began to work.

The mainboards were already processed and only needed to be installed into the mechanical casings with a few screws. Then came the control panel, the seven-thousand-lumen projector lamp, and one by one, the components were skillfully placed in their correct positions by Ning Yifan.

In a fluid motion, it took only a few minutes to assemble a brand-new projector.

The final step was calibration. The laptop was already open, running the professional debugging software Ning Yifan had written. He connected the cable to the projector's rear data interface and plugged the projector's power cord into the socket under the dining table.

Turning on the projector, a preset startup screen soon appeared on the wall of the workspace.

A snow-white Pegasus with enormous feathered wings, exceptionally majestic, soared from the screen, and the words "Shenma Technology" slowly appeared.

After the startup animation ended, the image projected on the wall was the same as what was displayed on Ning Yifan's laptop. Ning Yifan casually clicked "start" on the testing software on his laptop.

Vivid images were displayed on the wall. With just a glance, Ning Yifan had a general idea of the data. He then calibrated the display color on the laptop. The entire process took less than a minute.

Thus, Shenma Technology Company's first product was officially offline.

The subsequent work was somewhat tedious. Ning Yifan locked himself in the room and worked for the entire day, assembling and debugging a total of one hundred projectors.

The custom-packaged projectors in cardboard boxes in the corner were stacked into a square one meter wide and about two meters high. Ning Yifan was quite satisfied with his day's work: "In one day, more than half of the inventory of the most expensive component, the projector lamp, has been used. With one more day, the first batch of two hundred units will be completely assembled."

Working from day to night, although his body could handle it, his spirit couldn't: "The work is easy and simple, but very boring. Even listening to music doesn't help. I need to get the automated production line, or rather, the automated assembly line, up and running as soon as possible." He twisted his neck, feeling his body relax.

Stretching, Ning Yifan checked the time. There was still an hour before the daily rest period.

He could use this time to complete the last two steps of projector manufacturing.

Now that the products were manufactured, they needed to be sold, and how to sell them was a very important issue. Ning Yifan had already prepared for this step.

The products assembled and calibrated by Ning Yifan himself were of very high quality. As long as potential consumers were made aware of the product's excellent performance, he believed he could quickly gain traction.

The first step in selling the products was to spend forty minutes editing photos and videos. Ning Yifan uploaded the actual product photos and videos demonstrating the projection effects to his pre-established Taobao store, JD.com flagship store, and Shenma Technology's official flagship store, listing the first product for sale.

The second step in selling the products was to open his phone and enter Bilibili. In his followed list, he found several Content Creators who made unboxing and review videos. He clicked on their profile pages and recharged one thousand yuan for each of them.

After daily likes, coins, and collection activities from the previous period, Ning Yifan sent private messages to each of the Content Creators:

"UP, are you there? Hello, I'm a promotional staff member from Shenma Technology Company. Our company recently produced a projector and we'd like to send it to you for review. Would that be possible?

This thousand yuan is a small token of our appreciation. I hope you'll reply after seeing it.

It's a new company, please support us!

The product quality is excellent, you'll definitely be satisfied!"

Ning Yifan's messages were sent, and within a short time, a reply came from a Content Creator:

"Thank you for the recharge. Regarding the review, I have no problem with it. However, I must state upfront that I will mention the good aspects of the product, and I will also point out any shortcomings. Please be aware."

"No problem! Our company's product quality is excellent!"

"Ok, then please send the product to this address. I will release the review video within a week of receiving it." Below this message was a shipping address.

"Alright, thank you!"

The conversation ended amicably.

The communication with the first UP, who had over two hundred thousand followers, went smoothly. Then, the reply from the second UP came:

"Reviewing a projector? Do you need an advertisement? I can package it as a review video for fifty thousand yuan, satisfaction guaranteed!"

For a UP like this, Ning Yifan could only consider the thousand yuan he had recharged as wasted and didn't bother replying.

Washing up and going to bed, Ning Yifan entered the Dream World to study precisely at 11:30 PM.
