Chapter 283: New Arrival
At the same time that Zhao Minglei and Steven officially signed the agreement at the Friendship Hotel, in the courtyard of Song Yuanchao, Song Yuanchao, Lin Yan, and Lin Yuhang sat in the courtyard drinking tea and talking about things.
Approaching early summer, the weather in Yanjing is excellent, and it is very pleasant to make a pot of tea in the courtyard in the afternoon on such a day, sit on the deck chair under the grape trellis, and feel the breeze on your face.
Lin Yuhang came later, and when he came for a while, he saw Song Yuanchao sitting there leisurely, holding a book in his hand and tea on the side, looking leisurely.
"I'm dying of thirst......." stepped forward, Lin Yuhang was not polite, he directly took Song Yuanchao's teapot and drank it cleanly, and the pot of good tea that Song Yuanchao had just made was wasted on his side like a cow chewing a peony. But Song Yuanchao didn't care at all, looked at Lin Yuhang with a smile, and asked if it was enough after he finished drinking? If that's not enough, make him another pot.
"Your tea tastes weird, I think it's still jasmine." Smashing his mouth, Lin Yuhang said, which made Song Yuanchao and Lin Yan laugh.
"Second brother, you sit down first, I'll give you the whole jasmine, wait." Lin Yan happily gave up her seat, and after a while, she brought a large enamel tea jar over, which contained a handful of jasmine tea, and then picked up the thermos on the side and poured water, the hot water washed down, and a burst of jasmine fragrance came to her nose.
Holding the big tea jar, Lin Yuhang blew it a few times and drank it a little colder, and then said with satisfaction: "It still tastes good, fragrant!" ”
Lin Yuhang's words attracted the laughter of Song Yuanchao and Lin Yan, and the three of them gossiped for a while, Song Yuanchao handed Lin Yuhang a cigarette and helped him light it, and then asked him the purpose of coming today.
"Look at me, I almost forgot about business." With a pat on his forehead, Lin Yuhang remembered what he was doing, took the leather bag that was resting aside, opened the zipper and took out a thing from the leather bag: "The thing came out, and I specially brought it over to show you." ”
"Coming out? It's not slow. Song Yuanchao was slightly stunned and laughed, and his eyes fell on what Lin Yuhang took out.
It's a whiteboard carton with no markings on it, and it looks like it's the same as the injections in the hospital.
He took it and opened it, and there were six injection-like things neatly lined up inside, slightly larger than ordinary injections, but not much bigger, and the glass bottle contained an unknown liquid, but the color was pale yellow.
took out one and looked at it in the sun, Song Yuanchao was noncommittal to find a small piece of sand from the box, and then directly scratched the upper recess of the glass bottle twice, then pinched the bottle in the lower part with one hand, and broke it with the other hand, and the mouth of the bottle was directly broken off by Song Yuanchao.
After breaking it, Song Yuanchao looked at the bottle again, as if he was looking at the edge of the broken bottle, and then directly picked up the bottle and poured it with his mouth open under the gaze of Lin Yuhang and Lin Yan.
"Aid to North Korea...... Lin Yan was startled, why did the medicine for this injection be poured directly into his mouth and drunk? Hurriedly shouted.
But she shouted late, and when the words came out, Song Yuanchao had already poured all the potions in the glass bottle into his mouth, and then smashed his mouth as if he was reminiscing about the taste of the potion.
Seeing that Lin Yan looked a little nervous, Lin Yuhang on the side dragged his sister and gave her a reassuring look at the same time.
Seeing the second brother act like this, Lin Yan's somewhat apprehensive heart gradually relaxed, his second brother would never harm Song Yuanchao, not to mention that Song Yuanchao is not a fool, I am afraid that he already knew what the second brother brought over, otherwise he would not drink it directly.
But what is it? Lin Yan was puzzled, is it a new product in the second brother's factory? What medicine can I drink? If it wasn't the injection for the injection, why did it look like this? What's the effect of such a little thing?
"How?" Compared with Lin Yan, who was puzzled, Lin Yuhang couldn't wait to look at Song Yuanchao.
"This taste...... It's done! Song Yuanchao carefully recalled the taste of the potion, and after a while, he nodded slightly under Lin Yuhang's gaze.
"So that's the recipe okay?" Lin Yuhang asked.
"It's okay, the medicinal smell is still relatively strong, you can feel it in one bite, and the sweetness is enough, so that people can know what the ingredients are when they taste it." Song Yuanchao commented, and as he spoke, he took out another one and cut it with a sand chip like just now, and then handed it to Lin Yan, who didn't understand yet.
"Swallow, you can also drink a drink."
Lin Yan was stunned, subconsciously took it, and drank the liquid in the glass bottle under Song Yuanchao's encouraging gaze.
When he drank it in his mouth, it was first slightly bitter, and then it was sweet, and the two flavors were combined, which made Lin Yan stunned.
"How's it taste?"
"This smell...... Weird. Lin Yan smashed it twice and said: "It seems to have the smell of ginseng, and the smell of honey, second brother, aid to the DPRK, what is this?" ”
"Hahaha!" Song Yuanchao and Lin Yuhang laughed at the same time, Lin Yuhang smiled: "You're right, there is ginseng flavor and honey flavor in it, this is ginseng royal jelly Of course, this is the flavor, how about it?" Isn't it delicious? ”
"Ginseng royal jelly? No wonder, I can't say whether it's good or not, but at least it's not hard to drink, and the medicinal taste is very strong. Lin Yan suddenly realized.
There is no doubt that this must be a new product of the eighth factory, these days Lin Yuhang almost eats and drinks in the factory, and he can't see each other at home all day long, I heard that he is tinkering with something new, it seems that it is this ginseng royal jelly.
Looking at the smiling Song Yuanchao again, Lin Yan suddenly understood that I was afraid that the birth of this thing would have nothing to do with Song Yuanchao, otherwise Lin Yuhang would not have rushed over to get the product to Song Yuanchao on Sunday today.
"Just use this recipe, have you calculated the yield? How much does one currently cost? Song Yuanchao felt that the ginseng royal jelly made by Lin Yuhang tasted good, at least not much different from what he remembered, and the medicinal flavor was strong, which made people understand what the ingredients of the product were in one bite.
The eighth factory relied on the packaging of loquat paste and cough syrup to turn over, and finally recovered from its dying breath. But although these two products have brought the eighth factory back to life, they cannot make the eighth factory really get out of the predicament.
Compared with other factories, the lack of heritage of the eight factories do not have the slightest advantage, but also do not have the fist products, the products of the eight factories have always been ordinary products, these products can still get by in the era of planned economy, but with the change of policy, the era of market economy has arrived, and the eight factories with heavy burdens have been overwhelmed.
If it weren't for Lin Yuhang as the factory secretary and secretary of the Eighth Factory, I am afraid that the current Eighth Factory would not even be able to pay salaries, and in the next few years, the Eighth Factory will not rely on loans or rely on the appropriation of funds from the superiors to survive half-dead, and wait for the day when the bank does not give loans or the superiors no longer allocate funds, the fate of the Eighth Factory will come to an end.
This is the problem faced by many state-owned enterprises after the reform and opening up, and some enterprises have changed themselves in the changes of this era, so as to fight their way out to adapt to the new changes. But there are also many enterprises that have sunk and become outcasts of the times.
The eighth factory was lucky, because the eighth factory ushered in Lin Yuhang, a factory director, and at the same time, because of Song Yuanchao, the original fate of the eighth factory was changed.
Although the previous trick of warm cup packaging made the eighth factory recover, Song Yuanchao knew very well in his heart that such a trick could only be used for a while, but not for a lifetime.
Loquat ointment, cough syrup, these ordinary products do not have too many technical requirements, there are more manufacturers who can produce these products across the country, and it is crooked to sell them by warm cup packaging, there is no problem in a short time, but once other manufacturers follow up, coupled with the trend of social influence, this method will not be long before it will be stopped by the superiors.
If the Eighth Factory intends to rely on this trick to eat for the rest of its life, it is simply a dream, not to mention that Song Yuanchao never thought of letting the Eighth Factory always adopt such a way from the beginning. So when the eighth factory was at its best, Song Yuanchao and Lin Yuhang had a careful talk, and directly told Lin Yuhang what the problem was, and Lin Yuhang was not carried away by the temporary results, and he agreed with Song Yuanchao's views after careful thinking.
This is also the end of the sales model of loquat paste and cough syrup before other manufacturers officially launch similar products. Although there were many people who opposed this decision when the Eighth Factory was made, Lin Yuhang still forcibly implemented it under the prestige that the Eighth Factory had established.
As expected by Song Yuanchao, in just a few days after the completion of the last batch of products and the completion of sales to the market, the third factory first launched similar products to the market, which filled the short gap after the withdrawal of the eighth factory from the market.
Then, less than a week later, a factory, two factories and even four factories, five factories, six factories, seven factories, these brother manufacturers also launched similar products, for a time the whole market is full of loquat paste similar packaging, cough syrup these things, each factory in order to compete for the market fierce battle, the supply and marketing section chief of each factory to show their skills, in order to make their products overpower others is simply human brains are almost beaten into dog brains, with the swarming of large quantities of products, the original shortage of market has changed all of a sudden.
At present, the entire Yanjing market, including foreign markets, is full of such products, with the passage of time, many traditional Chinese medicine factories across the country have also launched similar products, products are overwhelmingly put into the market, and the fierce competition has also led to a decline in product sales prices and reduced profits.
In addition, because the packaging and sales of warm cups have undoubtedly exposed the loopholes in the medical expense reimbursement system, some socially responsible reporters and veteran comrades have also noticed this, and have published criticism of this phenomenon in the newspaper with a pen, which has attracted the attention of relevant departments.
When some news, especially the rumors that the higher authorities were ready to stop this sales model, some people in the eighth factory who were originally opposed to Lin Yuhang's decision to end the previous sales model and were dissatisfied with it began to secretly rejoice.
According to the current market chaos, the profit of warm cup packaging products has been declining, and even if the eighth factory continues to produce, it is not as high as before. And with the flooding of the market for similar products, the relationship between supply and demand between buyers and sellers has been reversed, coupled with the source of these rumors, people admire Lin Yuhang's decisive decision at the beginning.
