ALL NOVEL Chapter 48 Children are afraid of being stupid, women are afraid of being ugly, men are afraid of be
Another day later, Wang Baichuan went to work on his first day. After completing the entry procedures, Qin Hao took him to the purchasing department.
"This is Manager Wang. I invited him with great difficulty. From now on, you don't have to worry about acting in front of me all day long. Just act for him." Qin Hao teased.
The employees in the purchasing department all laughed. In fact, this was good news for them. After all, the purchasing department was managed by Qin Hao before.
Working under a boss has advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that your boss can see you if you do well, but the disadvantage is that you are afraid that you will be fired by your boss if you fail to do something well.
The wages here are good, and the company also has a reward mechanism. Even ordinary employees in the purchasing department can earn more than 200,000 yuan a year. Such a job is not easy to find.
Wang Baichuan also introduced himself: "Hello everyone, my name is Wang Baichuan. I will work with you in the future. I am new here. I still have a lot to learn. I hope I can cooperate with you to do a good job."
Afterwards, Qin Hao took Wang Baichuan to his office.
More than a dozen employees in the purchasing department watched the two people leaving and started talking.
"What's the background of Manager Wang? The boss personally came to support him?"
"He looks quite young, I hope he's not a fool."
"To be put in this position, he must be someone the boss can trust. Let's be honest."
"No matter what, let's just do our own thing."
In the office, Qin Hao took out a planning plan and handed it to Wang Baichuan.
"You take a look first, and we'll talk after you finish it."
Wang Baichuan opened it and looked through it carefully. After a long time, he closed the folder and let out a sigh of relief.
"Mr. Qiu, who did this small household appliance planning project? It's amazing."
Qin Hao smiled and did not answer, poured a cup of tea for Wang Baichuan, and said seriously: "This is our carefully selected store. The most important project at the moment, and procurement is the top priority. I will take you there personally for this project." How much you can learn by doing it depends on your understanding."
In 2015, the small household appliance market has not yet begun to explode, but it already has a sufficient market foundation.
In the past, people mostly paid attention to large home appliances such as televisions, refrigerators, and air conditioners.
However, with the development of the economy, people have a certain amount of savings in their pockets, and the pursuit of quality of life has naturally begun to be put on the agenda, so small household appliances have gradually entered the public's field of vision.
Soymilk machines, water purifiers, hair dryers, sweeping robots, etc. all belong to the category of small household appliances. This is a blue ocean market. Based on the scale of the domestic market, this market is worth trillions, even if it only captures one percent of the market. Cake, that is also a tens of billions market.
The carefully selected store that Qin Hao wants to build is not just about purchasing other people's products to sell, but also analyzing shoppers' preferences through big data and making small home appliances that meet their needs in terms of category, style, and function.
In the afternoon of that day, Qin Hao took Wang Baichuan to Shunde Industrial 5th Road. The 806-square-kilometer industrial zone gathered a large number of foundries that make small home appliances. Of course, there are also some well-known domestic home appliance manufacturers, such as Midea, Galanz, Rongsheng, and Macro. wait.
Qin Hao and Wang Baichuan came to the door of a factory, got the factory manager's phone number from the guard, and then explained their purpose. When the factory manager heard that someone was coming to discuss the order, he politely invited them in.
"Mr. Qiu and Mr. Wang, please sit down. Come and drink some water."
Wang Baichuan exchanged pleasantries with the other party, and then asked to visit the factory. Naturally, the manager was eager to ask for it, and took the two of them down to the workshop.
"Mr. Qiu, Mr. Wang, I am not bragging. Our factory is ranked first in Shunde in terms of technical strength. The coffee machines we are making now are all exported to Europe and the United States, and the quality is absolutely excellent."
The manager introduced it eloquently.
Wang Baichuan was very familiar with how to connect with factories. He asked, "Manager Li, does your factory only make coffee machines?"
"Of course not. Our factory has rich technical reserves. We can make hair dryers, shavers, and rice cookers. Now we are just rushing to meet this batch of orders, so we changed the production line to a coffee machine. You also know that foreign trade orders are not good at this point, the time is very strict, and you will face huge compensation if you break the contract." Manager Li said quickly.
Wang Baichuan nodded: "So you are so busy now, do you still have enough production capacity to take our orders?"
"Yes, why not? Our batch of goods will be finished by the end of the month, and we will be able to accommodate any number of orders by then!"
Then Manager Li took Qin Hao and Wang Baichuan around the factory. Qin Hao gave Wang Baichuan a look, and Wang Baichuan understood and said to Manager Li.
"Let's do this. Manager Li will give us a copy of your factory information. We will report it to the company when we get back. If we confirm cooperation, we will contact you again."
"Okay, then I'll leave it to you two."
Manager Li respectfully sent the two of them out to the door.
At a nearby small shop, Qin Hao bought two bottles of water and handed one to Wang Baichuan. The two sat down on the chairs at the door.
Qin Hao asked casually: "What do you think of this factory?"
"It is a qualified foundry, but there is still a long way to go before it can meet our needs." Wang Baichuan said seriously.
"Oh? Tell me." Qin Hao looked at him with interest.
Wang Baichuan talked eloquently: "This factory has complete production equipment, but one thing is that it has no R\u0026D department and can only do OEM work. What we are looking for is someone who can do independent appearance design and functional design. factory, otherwise we would have to do this ourselves, and the cost would be too high and profits would be severely compressed.”
"Well, you're right. It seems that I made the right choice by inviting you here." Qin Hao nodded appreciatively.
Wang Baichuan smiled and said, "I have had a lot of contact with factories over the years, and I have gained some experience."
"So every experience in life is a precious treasure. Let's go to the next one."
For three days, Qin Hao and Wang Baichuan scanned the entire industrial zone like a map, including all factories that were engaged in contract processing.
There were also a lot of gains, and more than two dozen of them agreed with Qin Hao's request and had the ability to independently design appearance and functionality.
“Let’s try the water first with these two products: electric toothbrushes and electronic beauty devices.”
After returning to the company, Qin Hao convened a meeting with the company's management and selected two products as entry points.
The reason why I chose electric toothbrushes is that the technology is relatively simple and there is enough market space. In 2014, the domestic market size of electric toothbrushes reached 2.65 billion yuan, and by 2018, the market size more than tripled. Reached 9.3 billion.
As for electronic beauty devices, any product that seems to be subject to IQ tax cannot escape the four elements.
Children are afraid of being stupid, women are afraid of being ugly, men are afraid of poverty, and old people are afraid of death.
As long as you grasp one of these points, you won't have to worry about selling your products.
