Chapter 67: Recommendations

The toad mirror is very popular among young people, which even Professor Liu has paid special attention to, a pair of genuine toad mirrors need to be transported from the waterway to the southeast coast, and then transported to the southwest over long distances.

The professor roughly calculated the cost of Wang Zhengguo's production of a pair of toad lenses, and he confirmed that this is already low and cannot be lower, PMMA resin lenses do have advantages in mass production, it is too cheap.

Compared with the cost of silicate lenses, it has been directly reduced several times, and now after investing in him to improve the lens technology, it is only an increase in cost on the basis of the current simple stained lenses, and compared with silicate lenses, it still has an absolute cost.

"You can rest assured, although the cost of lens production will rise, I guarantee that it still has an absolute advantage over silicate lenses, and it is expected that the production cost of your pair of glasses will not exceed ten yuan, which is the biggest guarantee I can give you now." ”

Ten yuan to produce a pair of high-tech PMMA resin polarizing toad mirrors, so it is also acceptable, at least in terms of cost is much cheaper than abroad, according to Wang Zhengguo's earlier estimates, the cost of foreign production of a pair of silicate polarized toad mirrors, at least the cost is about 30 US dollars, which will include much higher than the republic's labor costs, patent costs, and silicate material processing costs.

That's right, although PMMA resin lenses have been commercialized on a large scale abroad, in the production of toad lenses, more traditional silicate lenses are still used, and special effects such as chemical discoloration and polarization under light are achieved by adding silver halide elements.

The reason for the continuation of silicate lens technology is that there are many reasons, on the one hand, most of the toad lenses are used in summer, and they are used more frequently when the light is strong.

Secondly, if you look at it from another point of view, myopia and reading glasses in the field of white light lenses are counted as necessities of life, so people urgently need low-cost products to meet the needs of the market.

However, the toad mirror is not a necessity of life, but is a bit inclined to the petty bourgeoisie, light luxury route, that is, those who like to pretend to be forced and often travel to bask in the sun The middle class likes it, because the average person does not pay attention to the requirements of polarization.

In terms of the nature of the commodity, the toad mirror was originally positioned in the high-end crowd, naturally foreign countries in the production of sufficient materials, high prices, at the expense of work, which also leads to the southeast coastal parallel goods channel from the time of getting the goods, the cost has been high, and when the first time the domestic change hands, the price of the black market channel must increase significantly, and then considering that the black market exchange rate is already high, the price of a pair of glasses is normal on the triple digits.

The southeast coast then changed hands to the southwest inland, and the middle price had to rise again, and finally fell on the head of the trendy youth in Shudu, and the price had already broken the 15 mark and went straight to the 200 yuan position.

In fact, the product is not expensive, if you go through the formal channels, imported by the state, even if the cost of a pair of toad glasses is 30 US dollars, the sales of domestic formal channels will not exceed three digits, which is considered normal data.

Now the foreign cost of about 30 US dollars is imitated by Wang Zhengguo and cut corners, using PMMA, a large-scale optical material for manufacturing, the cost can be reduced to a staggering point.

Originally, as long as the lofty things abroad were favored by the trend of the republic, they would really make it the price of cabbage for you in minutes. For example, the aristocratic sport snooker in Europe and the United States, which is definitely at the same level as golf, has not become an entertainment activity in the streets and alleys of the Republic in the end, and has even degenerated into a symbol of idle youth in society, which is really embarrassing.

Speaking of which, if the toad mirror hadn't been targeted by Wang Zhengguo, it should have been able to continue to maintain its high-end luxury status for about five years, but as for now, the actual situation is hard to say.....

"Professor, the cost of new lenses has risen to ten yuan, and we can fully accept it, as long as you make the corresponding technology, I will adjust the price of the current single dyeing PMMA toad lens to the standard that ordinary trendy young people can start with a little ruthlessness, so that the glasses we produce can truly serve the people and meet the growing spiritual needs of the people." ”

In fact, in Professor Liu's view, the ten-fold cost of factory sales like the previous one is no different from robbery.

"It makes sense to say, since you have this idea, then I won't say much, we are also serving the people, not capitalists who lie on the people and suck blood, you can understand this in time, I am still very satisfied. ”

I didn't see it before, Professor Liu was deeply influenced by the concept of communism serving the people, and being able to say such a thing at a critical moment impressed Wang Zhengguo, anyway, in the eyes of a person who formed a worldview thirty years later, it was definitely impossible for him to demand such a thing.

Fortunately, now the purpose of both sides is the same, Wang Zhengguo intends to reduce the price because he knows that it is impossible for the toad mirror to maintain a high price for a long time, so he took the initiative to reduce the price, and the professor is out of his own heart, since the goal is the same, and he can wear a tall hat in the eighties, it is not a loss.

"Professor, you're right, as long as the polarization technology here is completed, I will immediately reduce the price to ensure that our products fly into the homes of ordinary people. ”

Speaking of the toad mirror, Professor Liu put his mind on the scientific research fund that Wang Zhengguo said before, and the optical laboratory received 15% of the scientific research funding, which he was quite satisfied with, but the good things can't be accounted for by one person, and he always has to give others some soup to drink, such as the other 15% of other scientific research investments, which reminds Professor Liu of his old friend.

"Fifteen percent of the other types of scientific research funding provided by the fund are available now? If not, I would like to recommend a friend of mine to get to know you, and he is also short of funding for a project he is working on, if you are interested, I can introduce you to talk in detail. ”

Compared with the optical industry he is engaged in, the integrated electronics that his old friends are researching, that is the high-tech hotspot in the future for a period of time, if you fund it more now, the future will be limitless.

Referring to the fact that the other 15 percent of other scientific research funds have not yet been settled, Wang Zhengguo does not have the heart to think too far, and now he has a lot of things in his hands, and he does not have too much thought to think about other things.

"This situation, let's look at it later, we need to wait for me to finish the current period of time, and then find a time to discuss it in detail, anyway, the money will only be allocated early next year, and no matter how much I think about it now, there will be no funds available for a while." ”
