"Like this… should it be okay, right?"

It had been almost a month since Liang Xing transmigrated to this parallel world, and he was slowly getting used to his new life.

He was originally a corporate slave in the 21st century on Earth. After getting off work, he did what he always did: eat while watching videos.

[Top Toys We All Wanted as Kids (Part 1)]

He was watching this video when it happened. The view count was only 1, and he had only seen the first toy on the list—a Mini Four-Wheel Drive Car—when everything went black.

When he came to, he had already transmigrated.

The new body belonged to a young man also named Liang Xing, a recent computer science graduate from Yanjing University in Yanjing City.

College love is always beautiful, but graduation season is often breakup season.

No one was to blame; it was just that one wanted to return to Baisha City to inherit the family business, while the other wanted to stay in Yanjing City and make a career.

The original owner, however, was indecisive and at a loss for a while.

He wanted to drown his sorrows in alcohol, but his alcohol tolerance was terrible, and he ended up throwing up everywhere.

Before he knew it, he was gone.

On his first day after transmigrating, Liang Xing spent the entire night cleaning up.

The breakup was proposed by the girl on the second day. Liang Xing, who hadn't fully sorted out the extra memories in his mind, readily agreed.

No matter how pretty this girlfriend was, he really didn't know her!

Over the next month, Liang Xing sorted out his current social relationships and learned about the differences between the parallel world and Earth through the internet.

During his free time, he also watched a lot of movie and TV show analyses.

Although he couldn't name most of the actors, he found both the plots and the actors' performances incredibly enjoyable.

In short, the technological levels of the two worlds were roughly the same, but there were significant differences in literature, with the parallel world even being slightly better.

This was because the parallel world had a unified United Nations-certified platform: the United Nations Intellectual Property Protection Platform.

All literary works-related websites had to be backed up on this platform.

Whether there was infringement?

And how should it be punished?

It was clear at a glance!

Through this platform, applications, authorizations, and transactions related to intellectual property rights such as copyrights and patents were particularly convenient.

Liang Xing's family initially purchased appearance authorizations through the platform (fixed monthly fee plus commission) to produce and sell various toy cars of all sizes.

His family could be considered a family business, the Liang Xing Toys Factory, founded by Liang's mother's father, starting from scratch. To date, there are two toy factories and two brick-and-mortar stores.

The competition in this industry is fierce!

Liang's mother's father had overworked himself when he was young, and he had to retire to the second line when Liang Xing was in college. Liang's father officially took over the Liang Xing Toys Factory.

Frankly speaking, Liang's father was not a qualified businessman.

He came from a poor background, was honest and down-to-earth, and was most uncomfortable with borrowing money.

The toy factory's business never accepted installment payments; it was always a cash-on-delivery basis.

For this reason, he had to lower the quoted prices, further compressing the profit margins.

In addition, he would first repay the bank loans when he made money. Over the years, he had actually paid off the toy factory's loans first.

This year, Liang Xing graduated, and the Liang Xing Toys Factory was about to collapse.

Ultimately, the equipment had not been updated in a timely manner, and the competitiveness of the toy cars produced by the Liang Xing Toys Factory had decreased year by year.

Liang's father couldn't distinguish between the primary and secondary issues, so Liang's mother had no choice but to resort to this strategy, asking Liang Xing to return home to inherit the family business.

After all, she couldn't just watch the foundation laid by her father be destroyed in the hands of her husband, right?

But if things continued to develop as they were, it seemed that it was only a matter of time before the toy factory went bankrupt.

The rich second generation would likely become a indebted second generation.

That wouldn't do!

Fortunately, during the transmigration process, Liang Xing gained a strange ability.

He presumptuously named it My Pondering Power.

It was on the third day after the transmigration that Liang Xing returned to the toy factory at the summons of Liang's mother.

Looking at the toy cars on the production line, he immediately remembered the Mini Four-Wheel Drive Car he had seen before the transmigration.

The so-called Mini Four-Wheel Drive Car was actually the Mini Four-Wheel Drive Car that everyone was familiar with.

Although the parallel world didn't have Let's & Go, it didn't lack related Mini Four-Wheel Drive Car animations.

The toy factory actually produced related parts. Liang Xing suddenly thought of the GP Chip mentioned in Let's & Go.

—I seem to be able to make it?

At that moment, such a thought emerged in Liang Xing's mind.

From then on, there was no stopping him.

"Mom! I need money to buy parts!"

The lithography machine, a crucial piece of equipment for manufacturing chips, has nearly a hundred thousand parts, which is clearly beyond what Liang Xing's family can currently afford.

He just figured he might be able to do it, and the Liang Xing Toys Factory really needed new toys to expand its market.

So, why not give it a try!

How would he know if his idea was correct without trying?

Liang Xing, with the idea of verifying his theory, took a million from his mother and went straight to another toy factory.

This was the maximum support Liang's mother could provide.

After all, without the option of loans, the cash flow of Liang Xing Toys Factory was not ideal. For this reason, they had to slow down the production of new toy cars.

They prioritized OEM products, and their own physical stores would sell inventory products first, which could also be considered a way to recover funds.

Meanwhile, Liang Xing walked around the toy factory twice.

This toy factory was an old factory building. Since Liang's father took over the toy factory, the old factory building had not been in operation for a long time.

Most of the remaining equipment was outdated (what could be sold had already been sold). Liang Xing checked and found that many parts could still be reused.

He also ordered a lot of materials and parts from Taojin Online, and the one million starting capital was basically gone.

This Taojin Online is like a combination of major shopping platforms on Earth.

Genuine guarantee, express delivery.

It was from this day that Liang Xing lived in the old factory building.

Research was a good excuse.

Liang's mother would only feel sorry and proud of her son's excellence.

Except for the few words the mother and son would exchange when delivering food every day.

At other times, Liang Xing would use research as an excuse to escape until he completely accepted the social relationships of the parallel world.

With the memories of the two worlds merged into one, Liang Xing was truly integrated into the parallel world.

"This... should work, right?"

Inside the old factory building, a series of ugly-looking spliced ​​equipment was running.

Liang Xing walked through it with a huge wrench in his hand, and a great sense of accomplishment surged into his heart.

Although strictly speaking, he still didn't quite understand the principle of how the machine worked.

But he completed the modification based on his feeling, and the machine could indeed run.

Then he had to try his labor results!

Now that he had successfully started the machine, he was thinking of trying to make a batch of Smart Chips first. He didn't expect the operation to be quite simple.

The only regret was that many devices required manual operation, and Liang Xing couldn't handle it all by himself.

He scurried around in a flurry, and it eventually took him nearly two hours to complete the encapsulation of the first Smart Chip.

Most of the Mini Four-Wheel Drive Cars popular on the market rarely use full-coverage bodies, and it is impossible to exert the effect of Smart Chips at all.

In order to verify the effect, Liang Xing had to do it himself.

Compared to that large batch of equipment for manufacturing chips, this was much simpler!

When Liang's mother came to deliver food in the evening, the first full-cover Mini Four-Wheel Drive Car equipped with a Smart Chip was officially born!

Newcomer on the road, seeking investment, comments, and recommendations!

One update per day for now, around 12:00, at least two updates after signing, time to be notified separately.
