Chapter 359: It would be nice to be able to put the car washing machine in the middle of the road (ask for subscription)
In the afternoon, the car had to be loaded to deliver goods to Lao Wang and Lao Hu, Wang Hu went to contact the sedan car, and Fang Yuan continued to walk towards the auto repair shop.
Before he arrived at the gate, in Fang Yuan's impression, because there was no business, there was a noisy noise in the direction of the auto repair shop, which should be extremely deserted, and the buzzing sound seemed to be some kind of machine running.
"What's going on?" Fang Yuan quickened his pace and walked to the gate, and was surprised to find that the entire courtyard had changed drastically.
Lin Chenglong and Li Lezhi's more than 20 cars have been sent away, and the yard that was supposed to be vacated is now parked with more than a dozen cars, tall and short, long and short, new and old, and all kinds of models occupy a large area of the yard.
What surprised Fang Yuan even more was that there was a huge white composite box room against the wall in front of the courtyard, and the wall on the side facing the gate was removed, and it could be clearly seen that a strange device was installed inside.
The figure-7 automatic arm looks like a water spray lever rotating back and forth 360 degrees, spraying water on top of a black Accord parked in the middle to clean up the white foam on it......
There were more than a dozen people standing in front of the car washing machine, discussing something loudly, and the noise that came to the outside was the sound of these people talking mixed with the sound of the machine.
Didn't you say that you need to dismantle a lift to make room for a car washer?
How did you get a composite board house?
And where did these cars come from?
Is it here to do maintenance?
Fang Yuan walked towards the car washing machine, and turned his head to look in the direction of the store, the lift that was originally going to be disassembled was still there intact, and a Changan CS75 was lifted into the air.
Fang Yuan and Song Guoyuan were unwilling to reduce the station in order to install the car washing machine, and installed a composite board room in the yard, which perfectly solved the contradiction between the station and the car washing machine.
Before Fang Yuan walked in front of the car washing machine, the Accord had already been cleaned up.
Su Bei walked in quickly and poured out the Accord, and just stopped outside, a group of people surrounded him with a bang, and looked down in circles to check the results of the cleanup.
Fang Yuan also leaned over, and the first thing he saw was the location of the trunk, the black paint was shiny as new, like the mirror car paint, there was no trace of water stains, which was completely in line with the effect of Song Guoyuan's non-wiping.
And the gaps and corners of the trunk are also washed clean by high-pressure water, and there is no dirt in it.
According to his experience in washing cars on Audi A4allroad, Fang Yuan feels that ordinary rollers or sponges can't clean such a hidden place at all, compared to this kind of car washing machine, which saves manpower and has a much better maintenance effect.
Further down, the tires and wheels are also relatively clean, whether it is the silver wheel width or the black sidewall, there is no residual water stain and foam on it.
Fang Yuanle is happy, this kind of car washing machine is fast to clean, worry-free and effort-saving, very good, he silently summed up the cost in his heart according to Song Guoyuan, even if it is a big sale for one hundred yuan ten times in order to win popularity, it can also achieve good benefits.
"Manager Fang, you're here. Ding Chen, an apprentice at Jingcheng Auto Repair Factory, walked over to Fang Yuan with a red towel and greeted him with a smile.
Fang Yuan nodded and responded to Ding Chen with a smile: "You're busy with you, I'll stop by and take a look." ”
After hearing the conversation between the two, everyone who was concentrating on checking the cleaning situation paid attention to the direction of the rear of the car.
When they found out that it was Fang Yuan, Song Guoyuan and Su Bei happily came over to say hello, and the onlookers also followed behind the two of them to greet Fang Yuan warmly.
Fang Yuan didn't know these people, but he felt familiar, as if they were car dealers in Tianhong's second-hand car market and those who were doing auto parts business outside.
Fang Yuan didn't know these people, but these people were very familiar with him, after all, Fang Yuan was the deputy store manager of Zhenghong Auto Dealership, and more importantly, he was Song Guoyuan's apprentice.
More than a dozen people politely greeted Fang Yuan, everyone gathered together to chat like old friends, and suddenly, Fang Yuan found that Ding Chen actually used the red towel he was holding to start wiping some corners, cracks, and grooves connecting the windows and the body.
The cleaning effect of the car washing machine is already very good, and there is no need to waste labor, why does Ding Chen still wipe these hidden places? Isn't this a superfluous move?
Fang Yuan thought about it for a while, and then understood Ding Chen's intentions.
Whatever method is used, after cleaning the body, some water and detergent will inevitably remain in the corners, crevices, and recesses where the window glass meets the body.
If they are not wiped for many years, these seemingly inconspicuous water and detergents will cause certain damage to the paint surface, produce rust and other problems.
The average car wash will not pay attention to this aspect, just use a towel to roughly wipe the surface and not see the water stains, Fang Yuan did not expect Song Guoyuan's requirements for details to such an extent.
Fang Yuan stared at Ding Chen in a daze and gently wiped these subtle places, Su Bei thought that he didn't know what was going on, and took the initiative to explain: "This is specially requested by Master Song, and the residual water or detergent must be cleaned up to prevent rust." ”
Fang Yuan nodded at Su Bei, but he didn't say that he already knew the answer.
Even such a cheap project as a car wash for dozens of dollars is taken seriously, and the car dealers who stood nearby and heard the answer smiled with relief, they were very satisfied with the pursuit of details in Jingcheng Auto Repair Factory, and they praised Song Guoyuan and Subei more than once.
Praised by so many people, Su Bei proudly continued: "Cleaning up dead corners and gaps after washing the car is only one aspect, and Master Song has strict requirements for the maintenance process. ”
Su Bei said that in the Jingcheng auto repair plant to do maintenance, clearly stipulate that the steps to be implemented, what to do first, what to do, what kind of degree is qualified, Song Guoyuan all hand-drawn the form for employees to memorize, and finally after his personal inspection is the end.
If a problem is found during the inspection, it must be reversed at all costs, and the person responsible will be given a verbal warning or financial penalty.
"For example, in the process of maintenance, the surface of this steering wheel must be free of oil stains, sweat stains and slurry, and the gaps in the buttons must also be cleaned......" said, Su Bei opened the door and pointed to the seats, steering wheel, gear lever, etc., and simply repeated Song Guoyuan's requirements.
Even such an inconspicuous position as a storage box and cigarette lighter has been assessed as a standard?
It's too strict, isn't it?
Hearing Subei's explanation, the onlookers were surprised and delighted, Song Guoyuan was so strict with the details, of course he was relieved to hand over his car to Jingcheng Auto Repair Factory.
Subei took the opportunity to put a small advertisement on Jingcheng Auto Repair Factory, which won the unanimous praise of the car dealers.
"Manager Fang, do you see that the towel Ding Chen is holding is different from the ordinary towel?" Su Bei pointed to the red towel that Ding Chen was using, saying that he asked Fang Yuan to check it, but he was actually talking to the car dealers.
Isn't it just a regular towel?
The onlookers were full of curiosity and leaned over to stare at it for a while, but they didn't notice anything different, and they shook their heads to say that they didn't see it.
"No, this towel is really different, Ding Chen just wiped it gently, and it was very clean at one time. Fang Yuan pointed to the bottom of the back window that Ding Chen had just wiped to let everyone pay attention.
After Fang Yuan's reminder, everyone found that Ding Chen's movements were very gentle, and it didn't seem to be difficult, no matter where he wiped it, he would pass it once and never wipe it a second time.
So his movements were fast and efficient, and in a short time he finished the area that needed to be sorted out at the back, and moved to the side of the body to continue working.
Unlike the car washers you usually see, you need to wipe back and forth repeatedly with a lot of force when tidying up an area.
"This is also a special towel specially prepared by our Master Song. Su Bei took out a yellow towel from behind him and spread it out in the palm of his hand for everyone to see, "Whether it is to let others wash the car, or do it yourself, you can't do without a towel, ordinary towel fiber is rough, and the paint surface will be damaged when wiping the car, causing all kinds of fine scratches, and the owner has not noticed this situation, and the rust will become more and more serious after a long time." ”
"The towels we use are special car wash towels, which have finer fibers and a softer texture. Su Bei pressed the towel on the body with both hands, gritted his teeth and used all his strength to wipe the paint.
However, whether he was scratching horizontally from side to side, or waving in circles, everyone checked and wiped the results and found that the paint surface was not a little abnormal, which proved that this special towel did not cause any harm to the paint surface.
"It's really amazing. "The car dealers seem to have found a peerless treasure, from the hands of Su Bei to ask for this car towel in the hand to check, sure enough, as Su Bei said, this car towel is loose and soft to the touch and feels very good.
One car dealer didn't even feel the slightest discomfort when he wiped his face with it.
Fang Yuan thought back to the primary maintenance skills he had for second-hand cars, and quickly found the information on this kind of car-specific towel.
The data shows that this towel does not shed hair or color, has strong decontamination ability, does not hurt the paint surface, has good water absorption and does not leave water stains, and the drying speed is fast, and it is OK to wipe the glass, paint and interior.
This kind of car towel is not expensive at all, it is more than ten yuan a piece, but the details determine success or failure, attitude determines everything, Song Guoyuan strict management, in the details to achieve the ultimate, these efforts to make customers very comfortable and rest assured, can be called a model of spending a small amount of money to do big things.
The soft advertisements in northern Jiangsu coaxed the car dealers to be beautiful, and they said that they would hand over their cars to Jingcheng Auto Repair Factory at ease.
Fang Yuan and Song Guoyuan glanced at each other, and they both felt that Su Bei was a talent, and it was a bit too condescending to work as an apprentice for one thousand and five a month.
The car dealers all ran to listen to Subei's introduction, and Fang Yuan and Song Guoyuan got together.
"Master, what's going on with the composite panel room over there?" Fang Yuan was relieved to hand over the auto repair shop to Master, but he was more satisfied with the genius idea of installing the car wash machine into the composite panel room, and he was eager to know who came up with this perfect solution.
"It's a good way to come up with in northern Jiangsu. When it comes to the car washing machine, Song Guoyuan is also very happy, he told Fang Yuan that the cost of these composite board houses is low, and the installation and construction did not take more than two hours, and there was no delay in the car washing machine.
Just now, everyone used this Accord to experiment with the car wash effect after the car wash machine was installed.
At this time, Fang Yuan really wanted to reward Su Bei with a bonus, but he couldn't bear to do so, he believed that the master would definitely not treat such a flexible employee as a brain.
What he saw in the auto repair shop diluted the anxiety in Fang Yuan's heart, and his mood instantly improved a lot: "Master, what's going on with these cars?"
"These cars are here for maintenance. Song Guoyuan pointed to the onlookers and said that they heard that the auto repair shop had started to open and came to cheer for the scene, and four or five more cars were sent by Sun Yanming.
Sun Yanming sent the car over, Fang Yuan was not surprised, but these cars would come over to cheer him really didn't expect it.
But after thinking about it for a while, Fang Yuan relieved the doubts in his heart.
Although his master has been silent for several years, after all, he is a master of auto repair who has been dominant, has technology, fame, connections, and is willing to give him face.
When he came, because he was worried that there would be no customers, Fang Yuan's mood was not high, and now he realized that he had underestimated Song Guoyuan and thought about the situation too pessimistic.
Looking around the courtyard of the auto repair shop, the car washing machine that had just been installed, and the cars waiting for maintenance all over the yard, at this moment, Fang Yuan's mood was completely better.
"These cars are expected to be ready for maintenance by 5 p.m. Song Guoyuan's mood was also high, "I also ordered some flyers about the car washing machine in the copy shop, and after finishing the work, I asked Su Bei to lead Ding Chen and Wang Liang to send the flyers for a while before getting off work." ”
"Hey, by the way, Master, how much are you going to price for the car wash?" Fang Yuan asked curiously.
"Fifteen times at a time, ten times for a hundred yuan for members, the more money you charge, the more discounts. ”
"One hundred yuan for members ten times?" Although the labor cost was saved, Fang Yuan still felt that the price was a bit low, and those high-end car washing machines outside seemed to be twenty or thirty each time.
Fang Yuan can also understand Song Guoyuan's intention to do this, he wants to use low prices to grab business and attract popularity, so he fights a price war with those hair tube car washers.
"I have investigated, the price of the car washing machine around us is ten yuan for a single time, 11 times for 100 yuan for members, 12 times for members, and 20 or 30, and the car washing machine at some gas stations is a free service. ”
Song Guoyuan didn't set the price with his eyes closed, he also passed the investigation and research, and touched the bottom of the nearby competitors: "What, do you think it's high or cheap?"
"No, no, no. Fang Yuan hurriedly waved his hand and said three 'no' words in a row, since he handed over the auto repair shop to the master, he would not interfere with the management of the auto repair shop, even if Song Guoyuan didn't wash the car for free for a penny, he wouldn't say anything.
"Hey, it's just that the location of the car wash machine is too remote. Song Guoyuan looked at the spacious road outside the gate, and said with great longing, "It would be nice if we could put the car washing machine in the middle of the road, so that everyone can see it, and we don't need to hand out leaflets." ”
"Swing in the middle of the road?" Fang Yuan knew that the area of the auto repair shop was small and the location was remote, but the car washing machine was placed in the middle of the road, and it was estimated that the customers did not recruit a few, and the people of the Tianhong second-hand car market management committee were able to break the door of the auto repair shop.
