Looking at the sales figures of Wind and Rain fans, Feng Yu shook his head. As he expected, the orders for these fans were getting lesser and lesser. Even though he had lowered the prices, he still could not get back the market share.
Feng Yu had thought of increasing advertising. The advertisements on CCTV would surely be effective, but the market was filled with fake products. Even if the advertisements were effective, the Wind and Rain fans that people bought might not be the same as the Wind and Rain fans sold by Tai Hua Trading.
Things that were too easy to imitate were not good. The market was changing too fast. Furthermore, there were some old brands of fans that had started to produce plastic fans. Those factories were well known in their own provinces, and Wind and Rain fans could not make a lot of money.
Even if the fans were still making money, but the speed of making money was not satisfactory to Feng Yu. Last year, they could make a few million in 2 to 3 months. This year, they could only make a few hundred thousand in 2 to 3 months. The difference was too big.
Luckily, Feng Yu had thought of an alternative. He made a new electric fan, bladeless fan.
This could also be patented, and the technical requirements were very high. Not to mention small factories, even big factories could not imitate it. Coincidentally, the Aviation Factory had this air compression technology. Feng Yu wanted the other party to miniaturize the equipment!
… …
"Manager Feng, why did you call us together again? Is there any problem with the humidifiers' sales?" Hou Haitao asked worriedly.
Now, the humidifiers were a cash cow. Basically, Tai Hua Trading could sell as many units as the Motor Factory could produce.
The domestic sales were increasing, and the overseas demand could not meet the demand. The Aviation Factory and the Motor Factory were praised by the higher-ups. Hou Haitao was very concerned about the humidifiers. If they could make so much money for 10 years, no, 5 years, then the Aviation Factory would be making a lot of money.
"Director Hou, Director Li, there are no problems with the humidifiers' sales. The Motor Factory also does not need to add more production lines. It would be a waste to add one more production line. Anyway, we have the patented technology, and the market is still in our hands. What I want to talk about today is something else. I suddenly had a new idea yesterday. "
When Feng Yu said this, Hou Haitao and Li Shiyou looked at each other with excitement in their eyes. Feng Yu's previous idea, the ultrasonic humidifier, had brought high profits to the two factories. This time, even if the profits were not as high, as long as they could get half, no, 30% of the profits, they would be satisfied.
"Manager Feng, are you saying that you want to continue working with us? Or will it be developed by us and produced by the Aviation Factory? "Hou Haitao asked.
Li Shiyou was a little unhappy. "Why can't we develop it, but your factory produces it?"
The Aviation Factory also had a lot of experts. It was better to research and develop. The production was too tiring, and they still had to modify the production lines. Why was it so easy for the developers to get so many years of profits?
"That's what happened last time. Isn't that good?" Of course, Hou Haitao had to fight for the R&D. The previous R&D only took a short period of time, but the Motor Factory had to produce for 10 years.
Feng Yu quickly waved his hand to stop the quarrel between the two directors.
"Two, two directors, let me finish what I have to say. I heard that the Aviation Factory has air compression technology? It is turbocharging technology. Is it like this? "
Hou Haitao immediately looked at Li Shiyou proudly. Did you hear that? Our factory has this technology. What about your factory? Do you have it?
"Of course. We had introduced this technology two years ago. It is used to improve the engines, increase the power and save fuel. Why? Do you need this technology this time? "Hou Haitao was puzzled. What was the use of this technology?
"You guys also have jet technology, right?"
"Jet technology? Humph! We are Bing City's Aviation Factory. Do you think we have this technology? "Hou Haitao said proudly. At the same time, he looked at Li Shiyou with a proud look.
Li Shiyou was furious. But based on these two technologies, their Motor Factory was not qualified to compete with the Aviation Factory. He kept consoling himself. If it was electric power technology, try it. Our Motor Factory was way ahead of the Aviation Factory!
But both of them still did not understand what these technologies could be used for. Develop new engine technologies? The Aviation Factory had always been developing these technologies.
Li Shiyou asked: "Manager Feng, what are you going to do with these two technologies? Hair dryers? "
Feng Yu smiled at both of them and continued: "We are going to develop a new type of electric fan!"
Huh? Electric fan?
Li Shiyou and Hou Haitao leaned back on the sofa like a deflated balloon. Electric fans use air compression technology? Electric fans use jet technology? Could it be that a jet was aimed at people? Who would be able to stand that?
Furthermore, electric fans were not new. How can they be like the humidifiers and sell so well?
Seeing the lack of interest from both of them, Feng Yu said: "If this is developed successfully, it will be a revolution in electric fans. There will be many related products that can be developed. The profits will not be any less than the humidifiers!"
Hou Haitao laughed: "Stop joking. Xiao Feng, I know that you had gotten a plastic electric fan from the Aviation Factory last year. Our factory had also bought a lot of these fans. You want to revive the reputation of Wind and rain fans, but what has this got to do with our technologies? "
Feng Yu smiled confidently: "Next, I will tell you about the new product we are going to develop. Bladeless fan. Bladeless fan, as the name suggests, is an electric fan without any blades. Because there are no blades, it will not be covered with dust. It is easy to clean and will not hurt the fingers. Even children will not get hurt if they touch it. It is safer than the low speed plastic electric fans in the market.
We will use a motor to suck air into the fan base, compress the air through the turbocharger technology, and blow the air out through the jet engine technology. We will use a 16 ° ring-shaped fan head to blow out the cold air in a circular trajectory. The air will not be interrupted, and the wind will be more stable. If we develop it well, it will save more electricity than normal fans … … "
As Feng Yu explained, he used a bottomless plastic basin to demonstrate the bladeless fan. This way, they could better understand what the bladeless fan looked like.
Li Shiyou did not understand, but Hou Haitao frowned and thought about what Feng Yu said. It seemed that what Feng Yu said was right. Using this method to create wind, but how could the cost be low? The cost of one fan was at least 100 RMB or even more. How much would one unit be sold for?
But who cares? Anyway, Feng Yu will be paying, and they will be in charge of the research and development. They do not need to care about the production and sales. If the fans were sold, they will get a share of the profits. Even if the fans were not sold, they will not suffer any losses.
No matter what the Motor Factory thinks, the Aviation Factory will do it!
