Chapter 13: Your achievements today are all thanks to hard work! Your comprehension is phenomenal! Let me see your limits!

Facing the thirsty yet bewildered gazes of the workers, and the urgings of "Streamer, think of something fast" in the livestream, Li Jiajun closed the equipment website he was browsing, crossed his arms, and began pacing back and forth in the workshop.

His brain was working at high speed.

The Five-axis machining center was responsible for the integrated molding of the casing and precision structural parts.

The industrial-grade 3D printer was responsible for the internal keels and brackets with complex structures that traditional processes could not manufacture.

The Fully automatic pick-and-place machine was responsible for producing the core flight control motherboard.

The Laser cutting machine was responsible for the precise cutting of carbon fiber sheets.

...

Any one of these devices, taken individually, was a king in its respective field. But now, they were like a group of top-tier experts, each fighting their own battle, unable to form a collective force. What he needed to do was create a "formation" to weave the strength of these experts into a single rope, allowing them to work together automatically, efficiently, and seamlessly.

This required a brand-new automated production system capable of unified scheduling for all equipment.

'This is much harder than drawing a drone blueprint...' Li Jiajun's brow furrowed.

For the first time, he felt pressure. That five-million-yuan deposit felt a bit like a hot potato at this moment.

He stood in the center of the workshop, lost in long thought. The audience in the livestream also felt this heavy atmosphere; the bullet chats decreased significantly as everyone watched him quietly.

"The Main Streamer seems to have hit a snag."

"Nonsense, looking at that pile of stuff makes my head spin. If it were me, I wouldn't even know where to plug the wires."

"It's fine, I believe in the Main Streamer! Look at that profound expression; he's definitely charging up a big move!"

Just then, a bullet chat with a link floated by.

"Main Streamer, stop thinking so hard. Watch a funny video to relax. This assembly line is incredibly smooth; guaranteed to be satisfying!"

Li Jiajun hadn't intended to pay attention, but the words "smooth" and "assembly line" caught his attention as if by some divine intervention.

He absentmindedly walked back to the computer and clicked the link.

The video was a compilation set to highly rhythmic music, showing the automated production processes of various food processing plants.

Pieces of dough were precisely cut and transported, pressed into biscuit shapes in molds; flowing chocolate syrup fell like a waterfall, evenly covering wafers; countless candies were rapidly sorted and packaged on conveyor belts. The entire process was fluid and graceful, filled with a comforting sense of order.

Watching the video, the Netizens in the livestream began spamming "So healing," "Really comfortable to watch," and "I could watch this all day."

Initially, Li Jiajun also watched with interest, even feeling a bit like having a piece of chocolate.

But as he watched, his gaze changed.

His eyes were no longer focused on the tempting food, but were locked onto the movement trajectories of those robotic arms, the speed changes of the conveyor belts, and the seamless connection between different processes.

'Wait...'

'In this chocolate coating process, the end speed of the robotic arm isn't constant. It has a tiny deceleration and angle compensation at the corners to ensure an even coating... Isn't this just a simple PID control algorithm?'

'And that biscuit shaping—it's not pressed down all at once, but divided into three times, with different pressure and angles each time. This is to prevent internal stress concentration in the dough...'

'The most crucial part is that their data is shared! The output speed of the previous process is fed back to the subsequent process in real-time, dynamically adjusting its own work rhythm to form a closed-loop, adaptive system!'

His brain felt as if it had been struck by lightning; instantly, everything "clicked"!

The industrial automation logic hidden behind these seemingly simple food processing lines—wasn't it exactly the solution he had been agonizing over? Although the fields were different, the underlying logic was completely identical!

"Ding!"

That familiar, blue semi-transparent panel that existed only in his consciousness suddenly expanded with a boom!

His heart stirred; he knew it was coming.

Sure enough.

[You watched a food processing assembly line and, combined with the parameters of the newly purchased equipment, fell into deep thought...]

Come on, God-tier Comprehension panel, let me see your limits.

And so,

Immediately after.

In the next second, Li Jiajun felt his comprehension being pulled to the maximum level once again!

Countless inspirations and knowledge points exploded and reorganized frantically in his mind!

Siemens' PROFINET industrial Ethernet protocol, Rockwell's CIP common industrial protocol, OPC UA unified architecture, Distributed Control Systems (DCS), modular design concepts, Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMS)...

The industrial automation technologies he had previously found difficult and obscure now became incredibly "smooth" in his mind, just like the chocolate in that video! He instantly understood how to integrate equipment of different brands and protocols into a brand-new, self-defined modular production system through a unified "translation" layer!

[You watched the food processing assembly line and gained an epiphany: 'Modular Flexible Production System'!]

"I get it! Haha! I get it!"

Li Jiajun slammed the table and jumped up from his chair, his eyes erupting with a terrifyingly bright light.

This sudden shout gave both the livestream audience and the workers in the workshop a huge fright.

"The Main Streamer... had another epiphany?"

"He had an epiphany just from watching a chocolate processing video? This time, did he realize how to make better-tasting chocolate?"

"I don't understand, but I am greatly shocked!"

The workers also looked at each other, not understanding why Little Factory Director Li suddenly acted like he'd been injected with chicken blood after watching a video.

Li Jiajun had no time to explain now. He rushed back to the center of the workshop like a gust of wind, snatched the walkie-talkie from the Master Craftsman next to him, and pressed the talk button.

His voice was somewhat high-pitched due to excitement, but his instructions were exceptionally clear.

"All electricians! Immediately! Cut the power to all new equipment and rewire them! I want you to connect the emergency brake signal lines of the five-axis machine tool, the 3D printer, and the pick-and-place machine in parallel to a single master control console!"

"Fitter group! Do you hear me! Remove the crawler track from under that 3D printer and find a way to weld it onto the feed inlet of that pick-and-place machine! Yes! You heard right! Connect the two of them for me!"

"Old Wang! Wang Defa! Take some men and dismantle the base of that Laser cutting machine! I want the whole thing mounted above the conveyor belt! Make it so it can cut while moving!"

"Also, take that most expensive German machine tool and shift it three meters to the left as a whole! Yes! Right now!"

A series of bizarre, almost heretical instructions were transmitted clearly through the walkie-talkie to the ears of every worker in the workshop.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

The workers froze in place, tools in hand, looking at one another with expressions even more bewildered than before.

Weld the 3D printer's crawler track to the pick-and-place machine?

Mount a multi-million-yuan Laser cutting machine on a conveyor belt?

This... this was pure madness, wasn't it?! What was the difference between this and installing a Ferrari engine into a tractor?!

Wang Defa, the Master Craftsman, was the first to react. Holding his walkie-talkie, he cautiously confirmed, "Fac... Factory Director, did you misspeak? These... these machines are all independent. How can we connect them so haphazardly? This isn't according to the rules!"

The bullet chats in the livestream also went completely crazy.

"He's crazy! The Streamer is definitely crazy! Diagnosis complete!"

"Holy crap! Connecting a 3D printer and a pick-and-place machine? What does he want to do? Print a circuit board that can solder its own chips?"

"What a waste of God's gifts! Those are multi-million-yuan machines! He's just going to ruin them like that?"

"The Top Supporter is going to carry a train and run away overnight! That five-million-yuan deposit is as good as gone!"

Facing everyone's doubts, Li Jiajun remained exceptionally persistent and confident.

He stood in the center of the workshop like an autocratic general, speaking into the walkie-talkie:

"There's no time for 'why'! Don't just stand there! Do as I say! Immediately! Right now!"

His voice echoed in the empty workshop, carrying an inexplicable authority.

The workers were cowed by his aura. Although they couldn't understand it at all, they ultimately chose to obey.

"...Yes, Factory Director."

Wang Defa gritted his teeth and was the first to wave his hand. "Don't just stand there! Do what the Factory Director says! Let's get to it!"

In an instant, the entire workshop became "lively" once again.

However, this time it was no longer about amazement and spectating, but...

What the heck are you doing?
