Chapter 58: Money is used when it is not enough

When walking outside the company, Lu Yu and Deng Qiang walked behind, a little away from a few people, Lu Yu asked about the current company's financial situation:

"Throughout June, our total operating income from the three sales was 3.882 billion yuan, an increase of 816 million yuan from May."

"But we didn't expand the production line throughout June, and we expect that the operating income in July will be similar to that in June, and the increase should not be much."

"In addition, at the end of June, I am preparing to pay taxes in the past few days, and I don't have much money to use now."

When Lu Yu heard that he had to pay taxes, he grinned distressedly.

But there is no way, the tax that should be paid still has to be paid, which is an obligation and a responsibility.

He is a sole proprietorship, and there is already a lot of corporate income tax less, what is there not to be satisfied with?

35% individual income tax and 17% value-added tax, although the cost can be deducted a lot, but there is still a lot to pay.

……

sighed and said to Deng Qiang: "I still want to prepare a materials research department as soon as possible, but now it seems that we have to wait." ”

Deng Qiang was curious: "Materials research? Basic material or new material? ”

Lu Yu nodded: "Both." ”

Deng Qiang gasped: "Hey, Mr. Lu, this thing is really slow." ”

"The last time I built a biomedical laboratory, it took up a lot of money, and I may have to invest in the future."

"And material research, basic materials are thankless, new materials are difficult, no matter what, the amount of money invested is huge."

"The company's current financial focus is to continue to expand the supply of raw materials, but also to establish the company's own planting base."

"We also plan to explore overseas markets next year, so we have to invest money in raw materials and production lines, and we definitely can't invest so much money in material research and development."

……

Lu Yu nodded helplessly after listening: "Don't worry, I won't take up the company's funds at will." ”

"According to the established plan on your side, don't be disrupted, and prepare to open up overseas markets next year?"

Deng Qiang: "It's planned now, because we haven't promoted it in overseas markets, and foreign cosmetics giants are spending money to suppress the news of the company's products, and now there are not many overseas consumers who know about our products." ”

"So we decided to go out on our own, and recently these giant companies have been doing crazy promotion in the domestic market, advertising and price reductions have all come."

"We can't just compete with them in the domestic market, but we also have to burn the fire of competition to their market."

"It is our bounden duty to bring good news to overseas female consumers and benefit them."

……

Lu Yu smiled after hearing this: "Haha, okay, you can just have a plan, but what about the domestic market?" ”

"We can't meet the needs of the domestic market at all now, don't cause controversy when the time comes, the trolls on the Internet are unreasonable now."

Deng Qiang: "Our focus in the second half of the year is to expand the production line and raw material supply, establish more planting bases, and maximize the output, which will be much better than now." ”

"As for the controversy, I believe that consumers will not have any complaints after seeing our pricing."

"We sell cheaply in China, which is to take care of domestic consumers, but we can't delay us from going out and making a lot of money."

Lu Yu asked curiously: "How much are you going to sell abroad?" ”

Deng Qiang smiled and said modestly: "It's not expensive, it's just to exchange the unit currency for a U.S. knife, which is quite conscientious." ”

Lu Yu was directly speechless, is this still called conscience?

I really want to ask for foreign female consumers, "Won't your conscience hurt"?

……

However, this shameless thickening of the skin, Lu Yu expressed his appreciation.

After thinking about it, he asked, "At this price, will the sales be good?" ”

Deng Qiang said: "No matter how good it is, we can't divide too much output into overseas markets. ”

"The focus is still on the domestic market, and we will take the high-end route in the overseas market."

"Those giants have monopolized our domestic market for so many years, and we should also take the high-end route to go back and make money."

"It's our traditional virtue to be courteous."

Lu Yu smiled and said yes: "Okay, do a good job, I'm optimistic about your performance." ”

Deng Qiang asked again: "Mr. Lu, can we still develop some new products?" ”

Lu Yu: "For example? ”

Deng Qiang: "Hydration and whitening products can be achieved, and masks and shower gels are the most commonly used by everyone, as well as moisturizing creams, and it is not good to develop other categories newly." ”

"I just wanted to ask if there were any other effects, such as anti-wrinkle and wrinkle removal or something."

Lu Yu stopped, turned his head and stared at Deng Qiang with burning eyes, thinking about the methods and techniques for wrinkle prevention or wrinkle removal, and did not speak for a while.

Deng Qiang was startled when he saw Lu Yu's appearance, but it seemed that Lu Yu was thinking about the problem, so he didn't bother.

Lu Yu has thought about a lot of methods and techniques over and over again, but with his current ability, there is not much that can be achieved.

There is no verification, and it is not known whether it will be effective.

But there is one technology that Lu Yu can make 100%.

It can also be regarded as a new material, which he thought of when he read materials science books recently, combined with primary scientific and technological materials.

……

Looking at Deng Qiang, Lu Yu said, "I really didn't expect it if you didn't mention it." ”

"You said if we sell something like a face mask, stick it on the skin, and after a while remove it, it will make the skin firm and without wrinkles."

"Or make it latex-like, apply it to the skin, wait for it to dry and then tear it off to achieve the same effect."

"You say this kind of product, is it easy to sell?"

Deng Qiang listened to Lu Yu's words, the more he listened, the brighter his eyes became, and he was excited:

"It's so good, it's definitely good to sell, it's definitely going to be bought! Mr. Lu, can you make this kind of product? ”

Lu Yu frowned: "Yes, yes, it's just a little troublesome." ”

"This kind of thing is a new material, and if we want to produce it, it's a bit difficult to get it."

"There is no ready-made production line, and a lot of equipment needs to be purchased to retrofit."

Deng Qiang: "What's the trouble?" Don't bother, it's very important to the company, Mr. Lu! ”

"Just tell me what equipment you need, and I'll arrange it right away."

……

Lu Yu felt that Deng Qiang was a little funny: "Why are you so excited?" ”

"The company is mine, and the money I make is mine, and I'm not as excited as you."

Deng Qiang: "Don't I also have year-end profit dividends?" 0.1%, a lot. ”

Lu Yu smiled: "Okay, okay, what you said is reasonable." ”

"By the way, when it comes to dividends, you will develop a year-end bonus plan for your position when you go back."

"Every year, another 0.9% of the total profit will be used to set up a prize pool."

"It is used as an incentive plan, and it can be regarded as an encouragement for you to enter overseas next year."

"But you have to make it clear to the management first, there is no this year, there will be next year, you can't let the soldiers expand the territory and there is no return, right?"

"This incentive plan should be done as soon as possible to show me, to be reasonable, according to the work contribution, not to look at the position."

"To open up foreign markets, we must take more than the domestic market, and we must link it with performance, and we can't engage in any egalitarianism."

……

Deng Qiang knew this was a good thing when he heard it.

As soon as this news spreads to the company, everyone has to prepare to enter the overseas market?

The total profit of 0.9% may sound like a small amount, but if you consider that the operating income of a white and black cosmetics company is higher than the outside world expects to exceed 50%.

In this way, will this amount of money be less?

Coupled with the fact that the foreign pricing is so high, the profit is even higher.

With the quality and effect of the company's products, are you afraid that you won't be able to make money?

I'm afraid I can't count the money until I have cramps!

Looking at it this way, will the total profit of 0.9% be less?

Lu Yu is already generous enough, after all, to be honest, the competitiveness of the products of the pink, white and black company is too strong.

There are few decent competitors for similar products, and it is far less difficult to open up the market than other companies.

Products with the same effect of black technology, other hydrating and whitening products are hanging.

Not to mention adding an anti-wrinkle and wrinkle removal product right away.

……

Deng Qiang sent Lu Yu and them to the door of the company and hurried back.

He wants to prepare for the company's next anti-wrinkle and wrinkle removal products.

It is also necessary to check the information and reasonably formulate an incentive plan with a group of executives to start next year.

Chen Xiaofei and the three of them waited for Lu Yu in the car, and began to see what Deng Qiang was talking to Lu Yu, guessing that it should be the company's business, and did not urge to disturb.

After Lu Yu got in the car, the company also drove a car to help them deliver goods.

Chen Xiaofei said the address next to Shuyin University, and then drove out with one foot on the accelerator.

Lu Yu sat in the co-pilot, still thinking about the anti-wrinkle and wrinkle removal products mentioned by Deng Qiang just now, and thinking about what equipment to get to modify the production line.

He can do it in the lab, but if it is to be mass-produced, it is much more complicated than in the laboratory.

It's not just about modifying the equipment assembly line, it's also about controlling costs.

More importantly, add some new substances, preferably Chinese herbs, to confuse the public and keep the formula secret.

So he had to go to the laboratory to do experiments to verify which materials would not affect the properties of the new materials.

It just so happened that the rudimentary laboratory hadn't been dealt with yet.

After using it this time, those equipment can be disposed of, and there will be no need for it in the future, and the house will not be renewed.

Lu Yu thought about these questions and didn't speak, and Chen Xiaofei asked when he saw this:

"What's wrong with the company?"

Lu Yu glanced at him: "No, what can go wrong with the company?" ”

Chen Xiaofei: "I don't talk when I see you get in the car." ”

Lu Yu: "I'm thinking about problems, I've been reading books for the past few days, and I've occasionally gained something, so I'm thinking about these questions now, okay?" ”

Chen Xiaofei: "Okay, okay, you are a bully, you are a bull, I can't afford to be a scumbag." ”

Lu Yu directly returned a middle finger.
