Just after the New Year, all the factories are back in work, and people are starting to get busy. Wang Haoan once again came to the R&D center of Manhan Food to see the progress of R&D of new products.

"Chairman, you see, this is our newly developed instant noodle flavor, mustard and shredded pork noodles. We found that many people like to put more water when eating noodles, and the more water they put in them, it is easier to soak them, but the taste will become weaker. ”

"So when many people eat noodles, they like to eat pickles or pickles. It just so happened that some time ago, someone from us who was on a business trip said that the mustard and shredded pork noodles we ate in other places tasted very good, so we tried to do some research and development. ”

"It's just dehydrated pork, which isn't easy to make, so we replaced it with chicken breast, which tastes pretty good. ”

Chicken breast, chicken mustard mixture, Wang Haoan tasted two bites, and the taste was acceptable.

"Or use dehydrated beef cubes, mustard and make a small package separately, like the kind of small package on the plane, the taste of chicken is too fishy, it is okay to make it spicy, and the taste of non-spicy is very strange. ”

"Since you have thought of using mustard, and you have also thought of using spicy cabbage, then try the southern sauerkraut and get a sauerkraut beef noodle out, this is in Sichuan and Shu, and some people like it. ”

Professor Kong's students pouted: "Chairman, the sauerkraut in the south is not delicious, but the sauerkraut made from this Chinese cabbage in the north is so good." ”

"Have you ever tried the sauerkraut made from Chinese cabbage? Have you ever eaten this kind of sauerkraut noodles? The southern sauerkraut also has a unique flavor, you can try it, and the cost is lower. "It's a stereotype again, you haven't tried it, how do you know the result?

"Also, how is the bone broth noodles you developed?"

Bone soup noodles are also a very popular series in the previous life, and in the future, Kang Shuaifu and others will make it into high-quality instant noodles, and the price is about the same as an ordinary bowl of ramen.

"This, it's still being studied. We purchased a batch from island countries and other places for reverse deduction, and the main ingredients were all deduced, but the taste was always worse. Professor Kong explained with some embarrassment.

Instant noodles are not about nutrition, but about taste. The taste is good, even if there is no nutrition, there will be many people willing to eat it, just like soda, what is the nutrition, not so many people love to drink?

"Well, it's really not good, just buy a recipe from the island country and come back, and make some improvements, this is not in a hurry. Wang Haoan also knew that he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry, if this was really easy to develop, it wouldn't have appeared so late in Huaxia in his previous life.

"By the way, if you don't think about the cost, can you study it?"

"That's okay. We put in more bone sticks, boil old soup, add some flavorings, etc., we can make a bone broth packet, but the price of this packet alone is probably comparable to a packet of instant noodles, how much does this have to sell, who will buy it?"

Now a bag of instant noodles costs a few cents, and when sold for a dollar, there is a net profit of more than a dime. But if the cost of a package rises to about one dollar, then the retail price of the whole package of instant noodles is at least two yuan, and the profit margin is reduced.

In the future, with the rise in prices, will a pack of instant noodles still be sold for five or six yuan? Instant noodles are cheap food, how can they be sold so expensive?

"Okay, I see, you can lead someone to develop it first. The above models are not in a hurry to launch. We already have sales channels in Europe and the United States, but instant noodles are not very popular in Europe and the United States, where they are not used to drinking hot water and rarely eat noodle soup. ”

Europeans and Americans eat noodles, but rarely eat noodle soup, but in Asia, noodle soup is very mainstream and is also liked by many people.

So Wang Haoan thought of a very good instant noodle in his previous life - dry mixed noodles!

"Do any of you like to eat fried noodles or mahjong noodles?" Wang Haoan asked.

"I like to eat jajangmyeon, even lo mein, but I don't like hot soup noodles very much, and I have to blow it for a long time when I eat it. Chairman, do you mean we're working on a piece of instant noodles that doesn't require soup?" someone quickly reacted.

But everyone else is puzzled, instant noodles don't need soup, isn't that just crisp noodles, how to eat them?

Eh, it seems that jajanjangmyeon is to take out the noodles and mix them with sauce to eat, and this instant noodle can also be made in the same way. Soak first, then discard the soup and pour the packet.

"Chairman, are you asking us to develop fried noodles? So our next technical research direction is sauce, and everyone should write it down. Professor Kong commanded.

"Yes. I know that there are many kinds of jajangmyeon, there are meat sauce, egg sauce, sweet noodle sauce, etc., and our most famous instant noodles are beef noodles, so we have to develop beef sauce. ”

"This beef sauce can also be divided into two flavors, spicy and non-spicy, the non-spicy one is called meat sauce dry noodles, and the spicy one is called spicy meat sauce noodles, in the name, so that consumers can see at a glance. ”

"But there is another problem in this, if there are consumers who don't understand it, they still soak this instant noodle and eat it, and treat our meat sauce packets as ordinary oil packets, and they must not be too unpalatable. ”

"After the successful development of this product, it is not only for the domestic market, but also for the overseas market, so in terms of taste, you should not only find Chinese people to try, but also find some international students to do research, you can also apply for a fund, ask foreign companies to help with research. ”

"If this product can successfully gain a foothold in the overseas market, our delicious instant noodles will really be able to enter the international market, and everyone's income will rise in the future. ”

Everyone was inspired by this sentence, they came to work, didn't they all want to make more money, but few people were for what ideals, a food company, what ideals to talk about.

Wang Haoan never talks about any ideals with employees, and refers directly to reality. If you do well, you will have a bonus and a salary increase. If you don't do well, don't think about salary increases and bonuses, and there may be salary cuts.

In Wang Haoan's company, no one's salary can only rise but not fall, which is also agreed by Guo Jijie, and the same is true on the Xiangjiang side.

If you can be promoted, you can naturally be demoted, this is not like a state-owned enterprise, after being promoted, if you don't do well, you will be transferred to an idle position, and the treatment will not be reduced.

"Chairman, this matter is entrusted to us, to ensure that within one month, the research and development will be successful, and after three months, the company can officially produce this product. ”

Wang Haoan patted Professor Kong's shoulder with great satisfaction: "I don't worry about you doing things." But you also have to train more people for the R&D center, otherwise if you take a vacation, the work here will not be very good. ”

"You don't have to worry about the power of this R&D center, even if you don't do research in the future, you can manage this R&D center, and I am most at ease if I hand over this R&D center to you. ”

"Thank you Chairman for your approval. However, there is one thing I don't know if the chairman knows, Kang Shuaifu and the same side have launched new flavors, and several instant noodle companies in the mainland have also launched new flavors, and our competition has become greater. ”
