Chapter 131: Nong's Brain Watts
Shanghai, Shanbao District, Zhongshan Road, Singularity Industrial Design Co., Ltd.
There are many design companies in Huaguo, but most of them are house decoration design companies, commonly known as those engaged in decoration.
Only less than one percent are really traditional design companies, such as architectural design companies, clothing design companies, ship design companies, and industrial product design companies.
Industrial product design, as the name suggests, is to use a formal, systematic method to carry out industrial design of commercial products in accordance with customer requirements.
Surface color art design, external shape design, internal structure design, material selection of each part, ergonomic design, functional design, partial improvement or improvement design, heat resistance, drop resistance, conductivity and other tests......
Industrial design affects most industrial commodities, from the space shuttle to the high-speed rail bullet train, to a mobile phone and a kettle, all of which are full of the hard work of industrial designers.
After all, the vast majority of industrial products can only enter the production process and enter thousands of households after they have undergone perfect design.
It's just that some manufacturers choose to train their own teams and design and produce by themselves, while some, for example, if their own design strength is not enough, they choose to hand over to a professional industrial design company and ask professional industrial designers to help design.
Shanghai, on the other hand, is the city with the most industrial design companies, the strongest industrial design atmosphere and the most complete industrial design industry! Even many well-known industrial design companies in the world have branches in Shanghai, welcoming design orders from all over China.
Singularity Industrial Design Co., Ltd. is one of the leaders, except for a few top international industrial design companies, it stands at the top of China's local industrial design companies.
Of course, also standing at the top, there is also its charge.
Closing the door of Mazarati, Andy took the elevator from the basement floor to the company in the new Mirada red high heels.
She is a Senior Industrial Product Designer at Singularity Industrial Design Co., Ltd.
There are many designers in Singularity Industrial Design Co., Ltd., each of which has its own corresponding level in the company, from the P0 level of the new company to the P10 level of the company's president, each level is clear and distinct.
Andy, on the other hand, is the only P9 senior industrial designer who is the president of the company, and it is also the highest level that all designers in the company can achieve.
As soon as the elevator door opened, the two front deskers immediately stood up and greeted: "Hello Sister Andy!" ”
Andy just nodded his head and walked straight into the office.
As soon as a man in a suit and a mustache saw her appear, he immediately greeted her, which was her assistant's bag.
Xiaobao took a step up, opened the folder in his hand and reported: "Sister Andy, the mobile phone design of the hammer company has been approved by the other party, the other party is very satisfied, it has been delivered to the foundry, and it has entered the production stage, and the relevant design payments have also been called......"
"You don't need to report the previous one, what's the next job?" Andy put down his bag and sat down at a unique desk with a rounded shape, interrupting the packet's report.
Xiaobao hurriedly opened another folder: "The next order is from a game development company in Pengcheng, called Tianang Electronic Entertainment Co., Ltd., they specify that you are required to preside over the design and development of the product, and the design fee of the order is 8 million." ”
"Oh? 8 million? Hearing this amount, Andy frowned, and then asked directly, "What are they going to design?" ”
Although Singularity is busy and expensive, there are many design orders of more than one million per year, but more than five million are very rare, and most of them are large-scale design projects, which often require multiple top industrial designers to work together.
Xiaobao flipped the page and continued: "What they asked for was a helmet! ”
"Game companies? Helmet? VR? Andy thought for a moment, crossed his hands, and asked, "What are their specific requirements?" ”
"Oh, it's not VR, the name of their project is 'Red Star Brand Good Dream Helmet', judging by their description, it should be a sleep aid device." Xiaobao explained.
"Sleep aids? Didn't you say they're a game company? Andy was puzzled.
"It's true that it's a game company, but looking at the demand for his product, it's a sleep aid device." Xiaobao explained in detail: "Their needs are like this, first of all, this is a semi-enclosed helmet, which is similar in appearance to ordinary battery car helmets on the market, and it is the kind where the whole face is exposed, but there is no transparent cover for wind. ”
"Second, the helmet is designed for ultimate comfort, so it needs to be worn to sleep without any impact or discomfort on the user. Helmet linings require a certain degree of breathability and softness......"
"Third, this helmet needs to use a certain ergonomic design, when the user sleeps with it, it can produce the same effect as a pillow, have a certain support for the neck and spine, and it is best to correct the user's sleeping posture to a certain extent......"
"Fourth, the helmet itself should be light enough, strong enough, and have a certain ability to resist falling, which is not lower than the traditional motorcycle helmet on the market now......"
"Fifth, the shape design of the helmet needs to have an obvious sci-fi style, a sense of the future, and a sense of high-tech......"
"Sixth, the materials used in the production of helmets must be safe, non-toxic, preferably medical grade, and as high-end as possible, close to high-end mobile phone materials and high-end medical equipment materials, without cost saving......s."
"Seventh, the design of the helmet is divided into A, B two, one is a low-end model, I hope that after mass production, the production cost of each helmet is within 2000 yuan, and the other is a high-end model, I hope that after mass production, the production cost of each helmet is within 5000 yuan......"
"Eighth, design details, 1, the demand is directly above the helmet, there is an obvious red star LOGO logo, this logo also needs to be redesigned by us. 2. There needs to be a special horizontal bar indicator under the sign, which is not dazzling and has a sense of future high-tech. 3. Add a switch with fingerprint recognition function on the right side of the helmet to control the opening and closing of the indicator light. 4. Due to the light, the battery circuit module needs to be reserved in the helmet, but it is required not to affect the user, and it is miniaturized as much as possible, also in accordance with the standard of smart phones. 5. It is recommended to use the wireless charging function for the battery charging module in the helmet......"
……
Xiaobao babbled and introduced for most of the day, and all the design requirements were introduced by him.
At this time, Andy, who seemed to be meditating with his eyes closed, also opened his eyes: "What do they mean, they want to produce a helmet specially designed for sleeping?" Still need a lamp? The production cost is still as high as 2,000 yuan and 5,000 yuan? ”
After being silent for a while, Xiaobao nodded: "Yes." They...... That's pretty much what it means. ”
"Hey." Andy, a P9 industrial product designer, sighed and asked, "Are they Pengcheng's company?" Have you paid the design deposit? ”
"Yes, half of the four million deposits have already been paid." Xiao Bao replied.
"That's good! Book two tickets to Pengcheng at the earliest! Then come with me on a business trip to Pengcheng. Andy said categorically: "I have some questions for their boss!" ”
