Chapter 010: Huge Profits! Absolute profiteering!
Time flies.
Sure enough, it was the same as Gao Huaijun expected, and even faster than Gao Huaijun imagined!
It only took two months for Huaqiangbei to react.
One after another, there began to be a lot of copycat products, and even some larger manufacturers began to produce similar products.
And this situation was immediately reflected in the sales volume of the Hillhouse factory.
First of all, the channel merchants began to stop increasing the price to get the goods, then they did not re-pay the goods, and finally the number of goods was getting smaller and smaller.
Less than a few months.
The office that belongs to Gao Wenjie has now changed a lot.
Gao Huaijun likes to give up, and he doesn't like to mess up his home and office with things that he won't need for a few years.
Some of the original messy clutter was all cleaned up, and in the entire office, there was only a set of desks, a row of bookcases, and... A Buddhist shrine!
On this shrine is not the god of wealth that is common to ordinary businessmen, but Manjushri, one of the three great bodhisattvas.
Ning Yuan watched him strangely after worshipping the three pillars of incense, and then handed over the financial statements of the last month with a complicated expression.
Gao Wenjie, as well as Hillhouse, do not have this fetish.
This kid doesn't know where he learned it!
"This small product, the traffic is good, but the life cycle is too short!"
"Now that the wholesale price has been reduced to only 10% of the profit, and the traffic is only less than 1/3 of the peak, the life cycle of this product has come to an end, and it is time for us to develop a new product." Gao Huaijun saw the financial statements handed over by Ning Yuan and sighed.
Ning Yuan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he heard this!
At the same time, I also have a faint admiration for Gao Huaijun!
Not satisfied with this achievement?
What did they do before?
In the past, they worked to the death, and after working for a year, they only achieved more than one million yuan.
Bitterly, everyone earns some hard-earned money.
This is the fate of every ordinary manufacturing plant in Huaguo.
Then, because of this and that crisis, it slowly went out of business.
There is no way, the profit is too thin, weak to the point that it will be finished if it is a little bit windy.
And now.
In more than two months, a total of 80,000 handheld small electric fans have been sold, almost close to 6 million sales.
The profit after deducting taxes is nearly 1.6 million.
This sales volume is more than 3 times that of the Hillhouse factory in 03.
Windfall!
Absolute profiteering!
Now, after repaying more than 500,000 foreign debts and arrears of wages, there are still 1 million profits left, plus dozens of experienced workers and a set of quite old equipment that have been accumulated now, this is Gao Huaijun's main asset now!
Now it means that Gao Huaijun has preliminarily solved the initial bankruptcy crisis.
"We can't go back to the same old ways! The current product moat is too low, there is no depth at all, and we need to develop new products. Gao Huaijun put down the financial statements and said to Ning Yuan with a serious face.
Without waiting for Ning Yuan to answer, he continued, "We have the foundation of an electrical appliance factory, but most of the things produced are simple things. ”
"Now, we need to do something a little bit more complicated."
After speaking, he handed a stack of prepared A4 paper to Ning Yuan.
Ning Yuan first showed disapproval on his face, and then a look of embarrassment, but after carefully reading Gao Huaijun's draft, his face showed a look of shock.
Now the electrical appliance factories on the market, which are not producing some familiar products.
If it's messing around with innovation, I don't know how the factory collapsed!
"This..." Ning Yuan glanced at Gao Huaijun with a complicated look, and then looked at the pile of design drawings in front of him carefully and carefully.
If he guessed correctly, what Gao Huaijun wanted to do, he couldn't understand what it was!
This thing stands up, looks very slender, and continues the minimalist style of the previous one that Gao Huaijun liked, only about half a person in height, and its appearance is very high, and it looks like a brand.
This is, what is this thing?
He'd rather never seen it!
Gao Huaijun saw Ning Yuan's expression and nodded with a smile.
He aimed at the characteristics of the Hillhouse factory's weak R&D ability and the serious lack of R&D ability of workers.
In addition, the hand-held small electric fan will also obtain more than 1 million profits, at present, it is not possible to make some high-end products, and can only use the existing production line to carry out gradual transformation.
Now, he's thinking about making some fan-related products.
However, since the fan is a very seasonal feature, this kind of Gao Huaijun intends to be used as this transitional product, and he does not plan to develop related things!
And this time, what he wants Ning Yuan to do is a small household air conditioning fan!
It is a product in an intermediate state between an electric fan and an air conditioner.
It can be cooler than an electric fan, but it does not consume as much electricity as an air conditioner, and the price is very low, even between 1/5 and 1/10 of the price of an air conditioner in later generations.
But.
In later generations, when air conditioning was popular, this thing has been tepid.
The core reason is that I need to be cold enough, and I am more comfortable with air conditioning; And the weather is not hot enough, so I can use an electric fan, can I use this product with such high humidity?
However, Gao Huaijun has always believed in a concept - there is no product when it is back, only people when it is back! As long as you grasp the tiny gap cut out by the market, you can have a full meal!
What an era it is!
04 years!
The salary of ordinary people in most cities is less than 500 yuan!
Many of these city dwellers do not enjoy the taste of air conditioning.
Even if they had air conditioning, they wouldn't be very willing to turn it on.
In that era, most of the air conditioners were box units installed on the windows, or the kind of fixed-frequency air conditioners that consumed electricity, and they were actually not willing to spend a few dollars a day to blow the air conditioner.
In this way, this small household air conditioning fan has the space and opportunity to sell the pain points!
It's a fleeting blank segment!
However, now we need to rush time, it is already June, and in a few months, after September, the weather will cool down, and then this thing can only be sold in Nanyue and Xiguang, so they need to rush time!
Gao Huaijun told Ning Yuan the general idea, Ning Yuan looked at Gao Huaijun with an incredulous expression, and then asked cautiously, "Mr. Gao!" In this way of thinking, are you sure that all this technical research work is done by yourself? This looks amazing! ”
Ning Yuan has been working in the field of electric fans for so many years, and he has never seen any kind of product.
However, this whimsical idea, it's just the first one, and this two in a row, he can't help but be a little suspicious!
The geniuses can't make this kind of product!
Gao Huaijun said directly, "I have been running the market and channels with you during this time, and I am with you almost every day, Lao Ning, do you think it is possible?" Don't think too much, hurry up and do a good job! ”
"This job is well done, and the benefits are great!"
