Chapter 294 Mahjong Machine Is a Good Thing
With such a stronghold, Wang Xu really didn't have to worry about where to find Wang Fei. Their best friend group would meet here in twos and threes from time to time.

There are wine, food, coffee, dessert, and fragrant milk tea, music, video and automatic mahjong table.

The automatic mahjong machine is a new gadget created by Wang Xu. It is a new work from his small factory, and it is put here for testing.

The principle of this thing is not complicated, and the structure is also very simple, but the current mahjong machine lacks a few tricks, and the overall patent has long expired.

Although mahjong is the quintessence of China, the mahjong machine was not invented by the Chinese, but by people in the 70s. It was not until the 90s that it entered China, but the price was very expensive.

Wang Xu changed the design quickly, drew a rough picture, and added a few tricks for sorting out the cards. Thanks to a certain sound from later generations, he explained the various small mechanisms clearly.

These small improvements are generally small tricks that can be patented. As for the overall patent of the mahjong machine, it's okay, it has expired long ago.

Then I threw the sketch to Brother Li Yuzhuo, and asked him to find someone to perfect the design, especially to adapt the card type to the habit of Chinese people who like large cards.

Then let the processing factory make a prototype and put it in Wang Fei's small reception room, and let them be the testers.

There is still a market for this thing, especially in Xiangjiang. In fact, there is already demand in China.

However, the original design has always had some minor problems. From time to time, there will be problems such as jamming, and it is very troublesome to replace or repair.

In addition, the price is expensive, so the sales volume is not very good, and only some marijuana halls in Las Vegas will buy some.

Ordinary people rarely buy this. On the one hand, such a table needs a fixed room to install. Most families in China do not have such affluent housing, and most people in Xiangjiang do not have such spacious housing.

Moreover, it is not so easy to change the long-term playing habits of cards, especially Xiangjiang's counting and counting style of play, which makes a round of cards relatively long, and there is no delay in playing cards by yourself.

Later, the more and more simplified gameplay was popular in China. The time of each round was getting shorter and shorter, and people felt more and more that it was a waste of time to play cards.

Therefore, this thing became popular after entering the 21st century.

For this kind of simple mechanical equipment, Wang Xu is really familiar with it. He didn't spend much time. He just drew a schematic diagram by hand. Afterwards, Brother Yuzhuo went to the mechanical department teacher of Digong University to perfect it.

Anyway, it is all funded research, such a small thing, but any professional college that specializes in machinery can handle it, there is no need for Mizuki to do it.

Afterwards, Senior Brother Yu Zhuo didn't intend to continue producing this thing. He planned to transfer the technology later, just like the speakers, so that he could take a commission and concentrate on technology research and development.

Whether it's Suzhou Province or Brother Yu Zhuo's hometown, Guangdong Province, there are not too many factories willing to do these things.According to Brother Yuzhuo's plan, this thing will be transferred to four or five companies at once.

Not to mention the direct recovery of research and development costs, there is still a lot of money to be made.It is that it will be difficult to supervise the production and sales of enterprises in the future, and these enterprises may renege on their debts in the future.

Brother Yu Zhuo is also selecting companies in a targeted manner, let's start with acquaintances first, there is no way out.

Why are there so many similar companies in the 90s? People from the same village, township, and school must have some relationship to start with. It is because there are problems with lax enforcement of laws in various aspects, so we have to do it as a last resort.

Don't talk about using people as relatives. When there is not enough supervision, or the supervision system cannot be implemented, it is always better to use people as relatives.

Brother Yuzhuo is looking for specialized financial auditing talents to supervise the production of these enterprises in the future.

As for how they compete with each other, that is their own business, and the laboratory does not get involved.

However, these companies will have a mandatory requirement for research and development expenses. As for what they develop, it is up to them.

Even if it is just an improvement in appearance, it is a great progress in Wang Xu's view. From assembly to copycat and finally to research and development, this is the growth path of ordinary enterprises.

Even if it is a copycat, it needs to invest in research and development costs. Continuous research and development of new products can help companies quickly get out of the trap of low-level internal friction.

It is also the only way to avoid being constantly copycats. In these years, Huaxia's patent protection, how should I put it, is better than nothing.

Brother Yu Zhuo recently contacted his hometown of Lingnan, where there are manufacturers willing to pay for the design of the microphone.But I hope that Wang Xu can improve several simplified versions and form a product series like speakers.

Wang Xu agreed, and he also drew a sketch and threw it to Senior Brother Yu Zhuo. Similarly, there are not too many schools that can make a simplified version of the emperor, just need Wang Xu to make adjustments at the end.

Wang Xu now likes senior brother Yuzhuo's way of doing this. In this way, if you have some new ideas, you don't have to trouble senior brother Yuzhuo
Brother Yuzhuo's speaker business is also doing very well, all of which are high-end, and a dozen sets have already been shipped to Wanwan and Xiangjiang, although the sales are slow but steady.

This set costs more than 2 U.S. dollars. It is still a high-tech product, and the export tax rebate is relatively high. You can also apply for subsidies in the cities and districts of the imperial capital. In the end, it is almost all profits.

Anyway, it is more than enough to support the workers in the laboratory factory, not to mention that there are still a steady stream of new technologies entering the patent pool, and the laboratory only needs to be connected to be able to reap a lot.

Maybe senior brother Yuzhuo listened to Wang Xu's persuasion, or maybe his body didn't allow him to work too hard. Now senior brother Yuzhuo, like Wang Jinghua, recruited several assistants to help him.

In Wang Xu's company, the rights are relatively liberalized. The general manager only grasps the general direction, plus the key positions of finance and personnel, and the rest are left to the employees to play freely.

Wang Xu's business method here is destined not to form that kind of super large company. Even the processing plant, Brother Yu Zhuo has no plans to expand, but only requires a small and comprehensive one that specializes in high-quality goods.

Their products are highly profitable and the quantity is small. Orders are lined up as soon as they are lined up. Anyway, they do not want to expand production. If they want to mass-produce, then they will engage in certification sub-brand authorization in the future, and just focus on high-end products.

When the boss, Wang Xu, didn't pay much attention to making money, the general managers also began to think about their own pursuits. Although the three fields were very different, they unexpectedly had similar pursuits.

Obviously, they are also moving towards the direction of mastering the right to speak in their respective fields.
