Chapter 86

"The next project, the car navigation system project launched by the craftsman company, is presented by Weida."

"Hello everyone, leaders, guests, judges, I am Wei Da, the general manager of the craftsman company......

Li Jiufeng had just returned from the competition area of Green Dot Company, and before he had time to catch his breath, he was stuffed with another note by Hou Shida.

I saw Hou Shida show a standard eight-toothed smile, kindly stuffed the note directly into Li Jiufeng's hand, and said softly with an angry mouth: "I have to trouble the ninth sister to run, this time it is the craftsman company, hand this note to their manager Wei Da for a while, and see if they are interested in this project." ”

Li Jiufeng couldn't help but sigh in despair, and the ones who could come to the stage at this time were all the participating teams of the North Korean Growth Group. In other words, these opponents who are waiting for him to deal with are all the core team of the company that has been in the society for several years and already has the courage and confidence to start a business!

Which of these teams that came out of the rematch is not an old fox? He ran straight over like this, wanting to talk about cooperation with a note, and how many brain cells were not enough to die.

However, after he read the content of Hou Shida's note again, he gritted his teeth and sneaked out.

In fact, there are definitely quite a few people like him who are scurrying around the venue. This is an entrepreneurship competition, and all the participating teams are at least rated as promising project companies in the semi-finals - that is to say, the people sitting in the conference hall of the Xiangshan Hotel at this time are actually a group of absolutely high-quality customers!

Like Hou Shida, there are definitely many smart people who don't forget to pull business in the competition. In the past, it was difficult to see the person in charge of the company, but now he is sitting there obediently?

None of the companies that can enter the semi-finals are simple, and people who are confident in their sales ability and company strength will certainly not let go of such a good opportunity to expand their business.

Yang Huai, the manager of Green Dot Company, was holding a note sent by Hou Shida to Li Jiufeng at this time.

Six Ears Software Company, the name of this company, he has also heard of recently. It is the second largest administrative district in the imperial capital after the imperial district, and it is said that this company is the favorite to win awards in each district. At the venue of the semi-finals, some judges even hoped to invest in him on the spot.

But in any case, Liuer Software Company is also a software company, so what can it do with the direct drinking water company that researches reverse osmosis membranes?

Yang Huai frowned, and carefully read the words on the note again.

There wasn't much written on the note, it just raised a few questions.

"How does the user know the water level in the high-pressure tank? Is it possible to replenish clean water before it runs out of water? Regardless of the frequency of use and the quality of the local water, do users replace the carbon core once a year? Can users monitor the quality of stored water in real time? What if the water quality decreases due to the high frequency of use, which leads to the early service life of the filter element? Can the core reverse osmosis membrane of your company's product technology form a technical barrier? Not afraid of imitation by latecomers? ”

These questions were like lightning bolts, splitting the heart of Yang Huai, who had always been complacent.

For a long time, because he had attracted the investment of Meidi Group early, he was full of confidence in the project of direct drinking water dispenser.

And it is true that due to the quality of tap water in China, the sales of direct drinking water machines in China are getting better and better year by year. Although the production technology of reverse osmosis membrane is very demanding, as a manufacturer of direct drinking water machines, it is not a manufacturer of this product, and naturally there is no means to prevent other enterprises from obtaining reverse osmosis membrane......

The final result of this product goes without saying, and the market for direct drinking water dispensers in later generations is not the place for a certain brand. From first-tier brands such as Haier to Meidi, to small local brands in third-tier cities, everyone has their own market space anyway, and no one can form an absolute market advantage.

Hou Shida's series of questions completely shook Yang Huai's proud heart. Originally, he thought that the direct drinking water dispenser only needed to turn tap water into water that could be directly drunk, and the whole product was also designed to achieve such a function. As for the other product features, they were never on his mind.

These questions, as if Hou Shida has really used a direct drinking water dispenser, are functional requirements from the user's point of view after long-term use. As the designer of the direct drinking water dispenser, Yang Huai was really surprised.

How did he come up with these questions through his simple speeches, as if he had seen and experienced them with his own eyes?

The answer is very simple, because Hou Shida has really used it. In his later life, he installed a set of direct drinking water dispensers at home, and the basic filtration function was really good. But as a programmer, I always feel that this kind of direct drinking water machine provides too little information for users.

In the context that the entire IT industry and the whole society are vigorously promoting the concept of "Internet +", he has also thought about whether the direct drinking water machine can be intelligent.

Just now, when he heard Yang Huai's speech, a crowdfunding product of later generations suddenly popped up in his mind - smart water cup.

This "smart water cup" can detect the temperature and capacity of the water in the cup, and can adjust and remind people to take water scientifically and reasonably by connecting with a mobile phone. In fact, this thing is not worth mentioning at all in terms of hardware cost, but with a "smart" halo, you dare to sell a water cup for 200 yuan, which shows how high it is.

So can this smart water cup be integrated into a direct drinking water dispenser? Hou Shida's answer after thinking about it is, it is completely possible!

Simply selling direct drinking water dispensers will face fierce competition in the market. But the "smart water cup" has never been afraid of competition, the reason is very simple, people are forced to be high!

The various crowdfunding products in China in later generations have long told everyone a simple truth. The road for traditional enterprises to simply make products will become narrower and narrower, and if enterprises want to develop in the future, they must rely on the fan economy. Hammer mobile phones can be sold out of this product by relying on feelings and forced qualifications, but the copycat mobile phones that were once very prosperous are not gradually declining? The reason is very simple, the brand of copycat mobile phones can't be done, and copycat mobile phones can't package themselves with feelings and force.

When other mobile phone manufacturers have launched brand machines within 1,000 yuan or even 500 yuan, copycat machines have of course been forced into a dead end. (Off topic, Meizu Blue has a true conscience.) ）

Yang Huai sat in his place tossing and turning, as if there was a stove under his ass roasting him. Finally, he couldn't help but stand up and walked towards the seat where Hou Shida was.

Hou Shida saw Yang Huai coming over, pointed to Li Jiufeng's empty seat beside him, and smiled lightly.

Yang Huai squeezed the note in his hand tightly, and finally made up his mind to walk towards Hou Shida, and sat in Li Jiufeng's position under the surprised and curious eyes of a group of people.

"Mr. Yang, I am Hou Shida, the general manager of Liuer Software Company."

"Fortunately, I have heard the name of Mr. Hou, and he shines in the semi-finals of each district!"

Yang Huai looked at Hou Shida's appearance carefully, surprised by his youth. The person with such a keen business eye turned out to be a student who did not graduate from his senior year! Thinking about how many years I have worked after graduation, I finally found a way to take off, and it is really the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves!

Yang Huai didn't be polite, and asked directly: "I have read several questions written by Mr. Hou, but I really didn't expect that the product I always thought was perfect would have so many defects." Hehe, for the answers to these questions, please always be able to give advice. ”

"Mr. Yang is polite, innovative products always need time and the market to gradually improve. The fact that the first generation of products was able to achieve basic functions was already a remarkable achievement. It can only be said that the fool's thousand worries are only once in a while, let's discuss it together. ”

Hou Shida paused, thought for a while and said: "For Mr. Yang, maybe the direct drinking water machine is just a product that completes a certain function, but in my eyes, what I see is a change in lifestyle. I think that if you just make a product, it will inevitably be imitated by other competitors in the market in the end, you say? ”

When Yang Huai heard Hou Shida's "change in lifestyle", his eyes couldn't help but light up! This sentence was like an initiation, which completely opened his mind!

"Yes, yes, the way of life ......" he nodded excitedly, his eyes racing, muttering the word.

Hou Shida is not worried about being stolen by Yang Huai, if a sentence can make him understand the concept of "home intelligence" and "Internet +", then the future achievements of this kind of strongman are simply limitless, and it should be shown in advance if he comes up with an idea. But it is more likely that he can see a little bit of what Hou Shida has shown him, but he can't see the whole of these concepts.

"I think Mr. Yang should know better than me that drinking water is knowledgeable. How much water should a person drink every day, how much water at a high temperature is more appropriate, and whether to add salt or sugar, these are all the knowledge of drinking water. Is it better to sell water culture than to sell products? And the direct drinking water dispenser, it should not be just a product, what if it can develop into a platform that provides information for users to drink healthy water? ”

Yang Huai, the general manager who is already in his thirties, is like a child at this time, and he can't help but scratch his hair vigorously. What Hou Shida said, he could feel that it must be very reasonable. But how to achieve it and where the truth is, no matter how he thinks about it, he finds that he can never fully understand it.

"Mr. Hou, we at Green Point would like to invite Six Ears Software Company to jointly develop this project, what do you think?" Yang Huai thought about it for a long time, exhausted hundreds of millions of brain cells, and finally gave up on this difficult problem. Change your thinking, thinking that you can simply bring Hou Shida closer to your own project!

However, without waiting for Hou Shida to express his opinion, another person suddenly squeezed into the seat between Yang Huai and Hou Shida.

A man in a suit and tie stretched out his hand and couldn't wait to say: "Hello Mr. Hou, I am Wei Da, the general manager of the craftsman company, can we talk?" ”
