Chapter 0408 Three rounds of listing
Time passed a month and a half, and in mid-April of '91, the weather began to get warmer.
The world has set off waves, but Tianyang City is still unscathed. The comics that should be sold will continue to be sold, the factories that should be built will continue to be built, and the negotiations that should be carried out will continue to be discussed. However, there are a few more changes in the streets and alleys.
The number of motor tricycles of the 'Holy Light Machinery' began to increase at a rate of 15 units per day. This kind of light transportation with an approved load of half a ton appears in the streets and alleys from time to time, showing its advantages of flexibility and convenience, and is quickly recognized by residents.
Since the nineties, there has been a tremendous increase in trade between urban and rural areas as well as within cities. Ordinary people need a cheap, durable passenger and cargo vehicle. In general, minivans are their first choice.
However, no matter how cheap the 'micro noodles' are, it costs more than 20,000 yuan, and ordinary families can't afford it, and there is no special price advantage for short-distance transportation. Zhou Qingfeng originally considered a simple vehicle that was cheap enough to meet the needs of society.
The 3.5 hp motorized tricycle was born. It's so simple, it's so simple that it's hard to even think of it as a motor vehicle. However, with its half-ton load and small size, it exerts a high transportation efficiency on simple roads.
Obviously, out of demand considerations, all owners who buy 'Holy Light' tricycles immediately test the maximum load of their cars - the factory clearly said that the maximum is half a ton, but people still do not hesitate to trust the chassis technology of 'Holy Light'.
A car owner who is not overloaded is not a good car owner.
Add it to me, a ton!
So no matter in the city or in the countryside, no matter the road or the field, no matter the wind or rain, people can always see the small three-wheeler being installed on the baffle, just like an overloaded mud truck, pulling heavy goods in the struggle.
Zhou Qingfeng has long known this situation. In the early days of socialism, the masses of the people were always very bold. Fifty tons of Dongfeng light carats with five tons of commercial loads, and hundreds of tons of heavy carats with more than 20 tons of heavy loads. It's all the norm.
When buying a car, I always think: you don't have to be harsh with a half-ton load three-wheeler, and it should be no problem to pull a one-ton.
Some people always say that the quality of domestic cars is not good.
Damn, the imported car is carefully maintained, and it runs lightly, for fear of bumping into it, as the ancestors offer. Domestic cars do their best to work hard and neglect maintenance.
If you ask a rhetorical question, the answer is often - why should cheap cars be cherished so much?
Zhou Qingfeng was turning around in the sky, and from time to time he saw someone converting his family's three-wheeled into a large cargo box, pulling at least two tons of cement and sand and gravel, and going to the construction site leisurely. Looking back, a lot of people praised the 'Holy Light' three-wheeled wheeler as particularly valuable, very capable of loading, and can be used as a truck.
Every time he sees this situation, Zhou Qingfeng sweats for those car owners and pedestrians. He knows that domestic drivers are notoriously rough driving, but the reality is beyond his imagination.
It's a sin to sell too cheaply.
If it weren't for the limited power of the 3.5 horsepower gasoline engine, some people might want to use the three-wheeler as a truck. Regarding this situation, Zhou Qingfeng did not hesitate to order the sales department to adjust the price of 300 to 600 for me.
It took a lot of effort to build a motor tricycle that could pull and load. In the past, in order to promote, Zhou Qingfeng sold one car with tears in his eyes and lost one. Even if you don't make money now, you can't lose it.
The price has doubled, and sales have not been affected in the slightest. People feel that the three rounds of 'Holy Light' are really good, and 600 yuan is also worth a lot. It is easy to pay for yourself by soliciting goods and customers.
The good news is that with the increase in production volume, all suppliers are growing rapidly, and the manufacturing cost of 'Holy Light' tricycle is gradually decreasing. From about 500 yuan at the beginning, it has now been reduced to 450 yuan, and there is still room for price reduction.
Gong Wei introduced a middle-aged woman named Liu Changmei as the purchasing director of 'Shengguang Machinery'. Everyone sees her as a 'shrew', but she is really a treasure of the company.
Probably because he was poor when he was a child, Director Liu, who was not good-looking and even had a short figure, had a sharp voice that pierced the eardrums, as well as bargaining methods and a calculating attitude that matched his voice very well.
When Zhou Qingfeng interviewed this person, the other party admitted that his biggest hobby was to bargain and spend the least money to buy the best goods. She is not simply bargaining with words, but advanced to delving into the cost of each commodity and squeezing the bargaining space to the fullest.
Others are often dizzy when faced with a tricycle's complicated parts and supply system. But this Director Liu is like discovering a treasure, comparing the quality of parts and the price of raw materials one by one.
A middle-aged woman who has only just begun Chinese, has been in the Nantou Township Finance Office for more than 20 years, and it is not surprising that she carries a basket on the street, but she is stunned and energetic and spends a month following the engineering department to all the suppliers of 'Holy Light'.
A month later, Director Liu's understanding of the field of vehicle manufacturing was stronger than that of Zhou Qingfeng. Different materials, different brands, different manufacturers, she knows the entire supply chain like a treasure. Many suppliers also rely on her guidance to reduce costs and increase profit margins.
With such a capable subordinate, Zhou Qingfeng simply shouted long live. Director Liu is not greedy for money, let alone picking the door, she is actually quite generous, and her heart is not bad. She's just a little louder, and she especially enjoys the joy of reducing costs.
Zhou Qingfeng simply stripped Lin Wan of the responsibilities of the finance department and merged with the procurement department. promoted Liu Changmei, with a monthly salary of 1,000 on par with other executives.
Holy water and physical strength potions were sent out as health care products, just to squeeze the ability of this company's treasure a little more.
"Director Liu, when you were recommended by Gong Wei, everyone else called you 'shrew', and even some people in the company called you that. But you're a talent, a real talent. Whoever dares to insult you like this in the future will definitely fire him. ”
The company held a monthly meeting, and Zhou Qingfeng defended Liu Changmei's honor to all employees. This middle-aged woman has probably never been so recognized in her life, and she cried so much on the spot that she swore allegiance to His Excellency the President.
Zhou Qingfeng also planned to find an opportunity to use the 'Fox's Cunning' and the 'Scholar's Touch' to secretly improve Liu Changmei's knowledge. Even if you go to high school, it will be very helpful for your future work.
Because Director Liu is good at everything, but his acceptance of electronic equipment is low. For example, she can't use a computer, no matter how she is taught, she is used to manual bookkeeping, at most she uses a calculator, and even a mobile phone has to be taught repeatedly.
But the current development situation has made Zhou Qingfeng very satisfied.
Everything is on track. Even the transfer of assets of the Strange Maid in HK is nearing the end, and the account of 'Holy Light Technology (HK)' has more than 600 million Hong Kong dollars in liquid assets, not including a number of real estate that retains its value considerably.
As more and more 'Holy Light' tricycles go to the market, the energetic Magnolia brings another surprise to Zhou Qingfeng. The logistics system he wanted was built in the prototype, and by the way, he supported a local supermarket to make its debut.
Tianyang City has three districts and a population of nearly one million in the city. On a corner of the old and new town, eight brand new facades have been hastily renovated. The freshly painted walls are adorned with fresh posters, and the large neon signs still shine at night.
'Harmony Firm' has also appeared in the real world.
Let's ......, 'Pinduoduo' and 'Second-hand East' to find out.
