Chapter 501 The drone factory was put into production
After signing a bunch of materials related to the listing of the perfect group network and the intranet on the school, Jiang Hui was arranged to go to Shenzhen again.
said that it was "arranged", mainly because Jiang Hui had too many things to do every day, except for a few things specially requested by Jiang Hui, the rest of the time was arranged by various companies and Liao Yun to make appointments with Jiang Hui. No, the factory of Guanghui UAV in Shenzhen was finally completed and put into production, and Jiang Hui was invited by Dai Fuqian to go to Shenzhen to participate in the launching ceremony of the new UAV and the ceremony of the new factory being put into use.
Although the Tejas UAV was not a blockbuster at last year's Dubai Air Show, it began to open up its own market.
Immediately afterwards, Dai Fuqian went to the Singapore Air Show in February. Relying on excellent aerial photography performance and lower prices than competitors, it has slowly gained its own reputation.
……
A party in Hollywood.
"The Cavin kid is going to be developed, and the first big-budget film has won the weekly box office championship."
"The film is really well shot and the scene is spectacular."
"Their budget is only about 100 million US dollars, and it stands to reason that the shooting of so many big scenes should not be enough. If nothing else, there was an aerial footage, and I think it took at least six helicopters to shoot it at the same time."
"Maybe it's more than that, or you won't be able to shoot that effect."
"Don't argue, I've heard that Carvin shot from eight angles at different heights at the same time."
"Eight angles? How much does it cost? 100 million dollars can't be used."
"They used drones, drones for aerial photography."
"Are you sure? Grumman's drones aren't cheap at all."
"It's not Grumman's, I heard that it was a new manufacturer that was discovered when Carvin went to the Dubai Airshow, and the price was very cheap."
"In this case, I called and asked Kavin if he could tell me the information about this manufacturer, and I also ordered a batch of drones."
"I'll order a batch too."
……
Yellowstone National Park, USA.
"Linda, how's it going, how are these drones working".
"Excellent, it's been three months now and haven't had any glitches".
"Do you think the features meet our requirements?"
"This is already the most cost-effective drone I've ever seen. But if the clarity of the camera could be a little higher, it would be perfect."
"Several other parks are consulting us for their opinions, do you think we need to recommend Tejas drone products to them?"
"Of course it is necessary, the Glorious UAV is currently the best among the aerial photography UAVs."
"But it's a Celestial Empire enterprise."
"What does it matter?"
"Okay".
……
Guanghui UAV also combined with nearly a year of after-sales experience after product promotion, and launched a new generation of aerial photography UAV when the Shenzhen factory was built.
Although there are no earth-shaking changes in the structure of this generation of products, due to the optimization of the system, the updated camera with higher pixels and the battery with higher energy density, the overall performance has still reached a new level, at least it can reach the level of drones around 2010 in later generations.
Tejas drones can now export nearly 500 X1s per month, with a turnover of about $10 million. Although the scale is not large, but this time the new factory has been built, and the newly launched X2 of the Glorious UAV will launch a number of extended series, from personal toy level to high-end professional aerial photography.
Anyway, the production capacity can be raised at any time, and it is also a good choice to increase the sales volume from the original relatively single and high price to the high and low price range.
The original price was 20,000 US dollars, which is actually not cheap at all, but with the increase in production and the widening of the price range, Guanghui UAV is ready to set the sales price of the product at 1999 US dollars ~ 30,000 US dollars.
Of course, if the customer needs to customize some special styles, then it is normal for the price to exceed $30,000.
"Mr. Jiang, this is our mass-produced X2. At present, our production plan is to produce 2,000 low-end models, 2,000 medium-sized models and high-end models every month. Combined with the actual sales situation, adjustments can be made at any time", after a simple ceremony, Dai Fuqian first led Jiang Hui to visit the factory of Guanghui mobile phone.
Since there are only about 200 factories in the Shenshi factory of Guanghui UAV, most of them are still management and technical personnel, and the number of workers is not much. The company's current turnover is not large, so it is not necessary to invite big leaders to participate in the offline ceremony, so this ceremony is relatively simple.
"I think the degree of automation of these production lines is still relatively low. Of course, at present, the output per month is relatively low, and the degree of automation is too high to be used, but the construction plan of the automated production line should be done. The market for drones is extensive in the future, and if the annual production of hundreds of thousands of units is still so low in automation, it will be difficult to reduce the cost, and the quality stability will be worrying."
"I understand that our production management department is already working with the R&D center to develop automated production lines."
"At present, our products are mainly positioned for aerial photography, and this is not wrong. However, the current sales targets are mainly film and television companies and some parks, which is too monotonous. We can go to the power and oil companies in various countries to promote our products. For example, power inspection, UAV inspection has the advantages of no height limit, flexible inspection, convenient photography and comprehensive angle, especially suitable for the inspection of large spanning towers, making up for the lack of manual inspection. As long as customers can feel the charm of drones, this market alone will be enough to absorb our current output," Jiang Hui said.
"The application prospects of drones in aerial photography, news reporting, environmental monitoring, wildlife protection and other aspects are very broad, you must be good at digging", Dai Fuqian is an old man who has been following Jiang Hui, so Jiang Hui speaks more directly.
"In terms of marketing capabilities, we really don't do enough. At present, we mainly rely on air show sales and word-of-mouth marketing from old customers, and there are still relatively few spontaneous door-to-door sales," Dai Fuqian said.
"It's not necessarily all door-to-door sales, we have to make the most of the current Internet. Let's go and arrange it, see if any employee wants to confess to his girlfriend recently, we will arrange for the Radiance drone to send the ring to his girlfriend, and then post the relevant pictures to the Radiance Weibo, and make this matter a hot event with a little operation, presumably the Radiance drone can start to enter everyone's eyes."
"Mr. Jiang, this idea is absolutely amazing, it works well with less money."
"It's just that this is not enough, you contact Guanghui Film and Television, let them shoot a promotional video for you, and wait for this ring event to come out, and then there will be another round of promotional film promotion, at this time if you take the initiative to go to some companies, it is estimated that it will be much easier to sell", Jiang Hui said.
