"Old Li, it's time to eat."
"You eat first. I can't eat."
"You still have to eat. I know the factory is not doing well now, but health is the capital of a revolution."
"Not doing well? There is no benefit at all. I am the deputy director in charge of production and sales. Most of the workshops in the factory are working for one day and rest for two days. The workers' wages are only half for the past few months. If this goes on, many families will not be able to afford their meals! "Director Li smiled bitterly. He had neglected his duties as the deputy director.
Dang dang dang ~ ~ ~
"Old Zhao, have you eaten? Have a drink with Old Li. He can't sleep at night." Director Zhao said.
"Sister-in-law, I have something urgent to discuss with Director Li." Director Zhao was not in the mood to drink.
"Old Zhao, what's the urgent matter? Did something happen in the factory? " Director Li stood up from the sofa. The factory doesn't work at night now. Don't let someone come in and steal something important. Their factory still has military products.
"It's a good thing. Director Li, my nephew brought a big boss here today … …. "
After listening to Director Zhao, Director Li lowered his head and pondered. It was a good thing that there was an order. Also, the other party's requirements were not high. The Motor Factory was fully capable of producing it.
But Director Zhao's worries were not unreasonable. Using only plastic, wasn't it defective? It could break with a light drop. It was not durable and would ruin their factory's reputation!
But now the factory was shut down every few days. There were no orders, no profits, and the workers could not get their wages. Even their medical expenses could not be reimbursed.
Every day, there were workers asking for their wages. This week, there were already three times when workers stopped at their door. Director Li had to lend out his savings every time. But this was not a long-term solution.
Now there was an order, but he did not know if he should accept it.
"Director Li, I think we can accept it. We must accept it. If there are no new orders this month, we can't even get half of our wages. "
"Then what about our factory's reputation? We are an old factory with many honors. We cannot let others say that we are producing inferior products! "
"We can discuss with the boss and put their logo on our products. We will only produce. The last time we went to the south, many factories were doing the same. Why can't we do the same? "
"You are talking about OEM?" Director Li sighed. They were a state-owned factory. Since when did they have to do OEM for a private company?
"Director Li, there is no other way. How long would he have to wait for the higher-ups to give him a mission? For example, last year, they were tasked to produce electric fans, but what happened? In the end, he sold it at a loss. This time, the boss was quite easy to talk to. He didn't even ask for the price and just said that he wanted 10,000 units first. We can earn ten yuan per unit. Even if it's five yuan, it's still fifty thousand yuan! "
"Okay, is the boss still in your house? I'll go with you to take a look and confirm the order. The machines are always idle, and maintenance costs a lot of money. It's better to work as an OEM! "Director Li gritted his teeth and made a decision.
"Old Li, where are you going? We haven't eaten yet. "Director Li's wife shouted.
"I'm not eating. I'm going to Old Zhao's house to discuss work!"
…
Feng Yu looked at the dishes on the table in disbelief. This was the home of the workshop director, and there were only two plates of vegetables on the table. The only meat dish was scrambled eggs, which he had just made.
If the leader's family was like this, then how poor were the workers' families?
"Aunt, you and my uncle are eating this now? There's not even a bit of meat? " Wu Chih-gang also could not bring himself to eat. After he started working at Tai Hua Trading, his meals and accommodation were provided. He had meat for every meal, and he was already a picky eater.
"It's good enough to have this to eat. Your uncle and the rest of the leaders had lent their money to the workers. You still want to eat meat? Even eggs can only be eaten once or twice a month! "
Wu Chih-gang did not know that the factory was in such a miserable state. Anyway, he had given his family 60 to 70 RMB every month. His family's life was much better than when he was idling around.
Both of them only ate one bowl of rice and put down their chopsticks. They were too embarrassed to touch the eggs. It's better to go back and eat more.
The door was unlocked, and Director Zhao and a stranger walked in.
"Director Li is here. Have you eaten?" Director Zhao's wife quickly stood up.
"General Manager Feng, this is our Director Li. He has the final say in the factory. He wants to know how much you are going to pay us for one unit. "Director Zhao waved to his wife and held Feng Yu's arm.
Director Li was about to retire, and he had been staying in the hospital with the excuse that he was sick. He did not care about the factory. Director Li, the first deputy director, was now the person in charge of the factory.
Feng Yu stretched out his hand and shook Director Li's hand: "Nice to meet you, Director Li. Let's sit down and talk."
Director Zhao's wife made a few cups of tea, and Wu Chih-gang stood behind Feng Yu like a bodyguard.
Director Li entered the room and saw Feng Yu. Director Zhao had said that this General Manager Feng was young, but he did not expect him to be so young. Was he even 20 years old? If he knew that Feng Yu had not even celebrated his 16th birthday, his jaw would drop.
"Director Li, I believe Director Zhao had told you about my requirements. Other than the necessary motors, the rest of the parts that can be made of plastic will be made of plastic. The motors also do not need to be so big. Just use plastic fan blades. The power will be low. Even the protective cover outside is dispensable! "
"What? You want to remove the protective cover? If the fan blades fly out, people will be injured! "Director Li was furious. This was really a profiteer. He did not even consider the safety?
"How can people be injured? Director Li had never seen a ceiling fan before? Why can't a ceiling fan have a protective cover? Furthermore, our fan blades are made of plastic, and the speed should be low. Even when the fan is turned on, you will only feel pain when you put your finger in it. This is my requirement! "Feng Yu explained.
"Put your finger in it? That speed is too slow. How can there be wind? "
"As long as the wind is stronger than the fan! The power is low, and it saves electricity. Isn't that good? Just at home, who dares to blow a strong wind at the fan? This type of fan only needs one gear, and you don't need to shake your head. You just need to blow at one person! "
"Also, the base can be made smaller. With such a big clip, it can be placed on the floor, on the table, or even on the top of the wardrobe. It will become a ceiling fan that blows wind from top to bottom."
Feng Yu said as he gestured. In his previous life, these small fans were still selling well. But now, there were no such fans.
Feng Yu's new design had shocked Director Zhao and Director Li. Electric fans can be made like this? If that's the case, it's really promising.
"We can produce all these that you mentioned. How much are you willing to pay us for this fan? "
"I had calculated. The cost is about 10 RMB per fan. I will give you 20 RMB. The ones with the fan blades and protective cover cost is slightly higher. I will give you 30 RMB. If you are able to produce, I will order 10,000 units for each. "
Director Li and Director Zhao looked at each other. Both of them whispered to each other. These two types of fans can be replaced with plastic materials. The profit for each type will be at least 8 RMB. 20,000 units. That will be 160,000 RMB!
"Ok. But we have a request. This fan cannot be used under our factory's name. You have to register a new trademark! "
Feng Yu's jaw dropped. He did not even ask the Motor Factory for the design fees. He wanted to help the local state-owned enterprise to revitalize the factory. He did not expect the other party to not want a trademark. Could it be that they are not optimistic about this electric fan? If you don't want it, I will not be happy!
"Then we have a deal. I will register the trademark. The name … … will be Wind and Rain!"
