Rebirth 1990: I have three golden fingers.

Chapter 97 Xinghai Square becomes famous

Fang Bai found the director of the offset printing factory without much effort.

After chatting for a while, the two parties signed a contract, and Fang Bai first paid half of the deposit of 8 yuan.

There are 1600 million lottery tickets, a total of 12 yuan, and the average production cost of a lottery ticket is less than one cent.

A piece of A4 paper can make 20 lottery tickets. 1600 million lottery tickets are 80 printed A4 papers. They use better 100g/m paper, which is thicker than the commonly used 70g/m paper. The weight of the paper alone is 5 Ton, the current price of paper of this specification is 4000 yuan per ton.

As far as industrial supplies are concerned, if we only focus on price, the price of Dabai paper is not much different from that of later generations. However, due to the backward technology, it is more expensive.

Calculated in this way, the cost of a piece of A4 paper is 2.52 cents.

Of course, the main cost of printing is toner and equipment costs. The average printing cost for a piece of A4 paper is 5 cents.

The quotation given by Fangbai is equivalent to 0.2 yuan for a piece of A4 paper, including paper cost, printing, inkjet coding, cutting, packaging and other expenses.

Of course, the paper used in the lottery is a large barrel of roll paper. I didn’t ask how many meters of cypress a roll weighed. Anyway, the printed price was calculated by ton.

The covering layer used is printed with multiple layers of special anti-counterfeiting ink. Even if a super light source 100 times stronger than an ordinary flashlight is used, it cannot be illuminated. Therefore, it is impossible to know the specific prize symbols inside the covering layer without scratching the covering film. Condition.

Under normal circumstances, overtime printing takes four days. Fang Bai hopes that the offset printing factory will work overtime in two shifts.

But there are only so many workers in the offset printing factory, so it’s impossible to work both at home and abroad.

Therefore, he finally decided that after printing six batches of 6 million lottery tickets, he would go back to host the event in time for the Lantern Festival.

Wang Dakai can just wait here. It shouldn't be a problem to go back three days later.

I have been too busy in the past few days, and I am a little anxious and confused.

After Fang Bai thought about it, he told Mo Junkang, the director of the printing factory:
"Director Mo, time is a little tight. I hope we can arrange it immediately. I hope I can get 600 million lottery tickets and rush back tomorrow morning."

For the sake of money, Mo Junkang said politely: "Boss Fang, that's no problem. I'll tell the designer about your requirements later. The design and layout can be printed today. I'll work overtime tonight to finish it the next day." I just can’t stand it anymore, I hope you understand.”

"Okay, I understand." Fang Bai nodded.

Mo Junkang took Fang Bai to find the designer and explain the matter to the designer.

Fang Bai communicated with the designer about the layout design ideas, and then listed the number of N prizes he needed to play on a piece of paper.

After the designers finished it, Fang Bai once again confirmed the number and distribution of lottery tickets for each prize.

Fang Bai divided the 1600 million lottery tickets into 16 batches, that is, different versions.

When actually selling, only after one version has been released can the next version be released.

Before selling, Fang Bai will explain the version problem clearly to the prize redemption staff and sales staff.

Fang Bai requested that all the prints of the grand prize be taken out and printed separately. For example, this lottery ticket has a special prize or a first prize, and then detailed arrangements can be made to control the time period for winning the grand prize. At the same time, he was also afraid that the offset printing factory would make a mistake. .

After more than an hour, the version was designed and typesetting began.

After the layout is OK, you can try to play the lottery.

The printed lottery tickets have not yet been coded and have to be transferred to the coding assembly line.

After turning on the machine and trying to print a small batch of lottery tickets, Fang Bai and the designer checked it together and found that there were no problems, so he could arrange for workers to print directly.

The assembly line of later generations can print 1 lottery tickets in one minute, 1.8 million lottery tickets in one hour, and Fang Bai's 108 million tickets can be printed in one or two days.

However, today's equipment is relatively backward, and printing takes four days even if we work overtime. Normally it takes five days.

Today is already the eleventh day of the Lunar New Year. If we really have to wait until the printing is finished before going back, it will definitely be too late.

Fang Bai stood in the workshop looking at the printing, feeling very anxious.

It's okay to wait like this. Wang Dakai stayed and went to find a state-owned fleet to charter a car.

Fang Bai discussed the car matter and returned to the offset printing factory again. It was already past four o'clock in the afternoon.

Wang Dakai has been watching the scene. When he saw the backbone coming back, he reported the progress to him: "I heard from the factory director that it went smoothly and there was no equipment failure."

Fang Bai breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Have you had lunch?"

"Hey, I had a meal with Factory Director Mo and asked me to drink. I said no, I have to work in the afternoon." Wang Da said with a smile.

Fang Bai patted him on the shoulder: "Well, that's right. You have to be adaptable when going out."

"Yes, boss. When I was learning to drive, I was scolded by the instructor all day long and had to please him. I was forced to interact with others."

"When you get back, go back to the driving school and learn to drive."

"It doesn't matter if you register a few days late. Some students join temporarily. If you give the coach a pack of cigarettes, you can say anything. I will help you for a few more days."

Fang Bai nodded: "That's okay, I'm too busy recently and there's a shortage of people."

The more critical the time is, the more you need to stay calm. It is too easy to cause problems when you are busy.At five o'clock in the afternoon, Fang Bai simply settled the remaining balance with Factory Director Mo, and at the same time asked the workers to protect the lottery tickets from moisture.

Director Mo got all the money and worked very happily.

Early the next morning, the 600 million lottery tickets that had been worked overtime had been packed.

The printed lottery tickets are heavier after printing. Six million lottery tickets weigh more than two tons.

The small van that Fang Bai had arranged also arrived. Several workers helped load the goods, and the move was quickly completed.

The one-way journey was 1500 kilometers, and the road conditions were not good. It was estimated that the driving time alone would take forty hours. Fang Bai and the driver took turns driving, and after more than three days of hard work, they arrived at Wencheng Xinghai Mall at noon on the [-]th day of the Lunar New Year.

Fang Bai used to work as a salesman and took the B2 driver's license test. He often drove small trucks to pull goods, and he also drove a lot of medium-sized trucks, but he didn't dare to drive those large trailers.

The driver heard Fang Bai say that he could drive a van, and he didn't believe it at first, but when he said he could drive it, he let him test drive it for a while. It turned out that he drove it well, so the two of them took turns driving to meet the deadline, but the main driver was still driving.

Fang Bai's parents, who were waiting at home, were very anxious and called every day to report on work. They were finally relieved to see their son back.

Fang Baigang got out of the car and asked his father to arrange for someone to unload the goods and move the lottery tickets to a small warehouse in the mall for storage.

On the day he came back, Fang Bai called and communicated with his parents once, saying that it would take a long time to come back, and he did not contact him again during this period.

"How have you been at home these three days?" Fang Bai asked his mother.

Liu Fengqing saw that her son was looking a little haggard, probably because he had not slept well, and said with concern: "Your father said that everything has been arranged. When you come back for inspection, why don't you take a rest first? It's really tiring to come back in such a hurry.

You didn't have lunch, I'll prepare it for you. "

"Not yet. Let's eat with the driver later. Let me check first. Are there so many people here?" Fang Bai breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the arrangements were made.

Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival. If he comes back later, the event will probably be delayed. This will be very detrimental to Xinghai Company and affect its credibility. After all, it has been publicized.

Nowadays, the scene is very lively. When parking the car just now, Fang Bai took a few glances from the car. There are probably thousands of people coming to the east of the mall.

To the west and south of the shopping mall, that is where the event will be held. At first glance, there are huge crowds of people.

Especially around the prize area, there are thousands of people.

The reason why so many people came was mainly due to the publicity activities published in newspapers.

The publicity campaign started the day before yesterday. In the Wencheng Daily, a big question mark "?" appeared on the entire third page, with a line of small words "announced tomorrow" below.

Seeing this super question mark, readers couldn't figure out what it was about, and then they started asking. More and more people asked, and even citizens who didn't usually buy newspapers knew about it.

On the second day, people who saw yesterday's newspaper, who usually don't buy newspapers, bought the newspaper specifically and wanted to know what the content was. It was a big issue. It seemed that it was either a small matter or a bluff.

As a result, the big question mark was replaced, and the content became "2 yuan to draw a Santana car", but the time and location were not announced.

This content aroused more readers’ surprise and curiosity.

Can you really buy a Santana for 2 yuan?
The market price of a Santana car is 20 yuan!

There were so many curious people that newspaper sales soared, and the newspaper had to notify the printing house to print more copies.

On the third day, the fourteenth day of the Lunar New Year, the newspaper announced the specific content of the event, including the time and location.

[Oubei Wharf Xinghai Plaza Ten Million Prize Lucky Draw]

[2 yuan draw for Santana cars, motorcycles, color TVs, refrigerators, washing machines, bicycles and other prizes, with a total value of 1000 million yuan, high winning rate, real advertising, instant redemption! 】

[Time: The Lantern Festival begins—? 】

[Xinghai Plaza is a new generation large-scale comprehensive shopping plaza that Xinghai Company plans to invest 2 million yuan to build, integrating sports and fitness, leisure and sightseeing, one-stop shopping, large-scale catering and other businesses, covering an area of ​​more than 4 square meters.

At present, the first phase of Xinghai Electrical Appliance Mall has been put into use, and the construction of the second phase is about to begin. It will be larger in scale, meticulously planned and carefully designed, and will be built into a prosperous city in the center of Oubei City. 】

The advertising text prepared by Fang Bai in advance was handed over to Chen Yang. This was a lottery and also a promotion for Xinghai Plaza.

By investing to speed up the expansion of Wencheng's contacts, at least Fang Bai has a background in his hometown. In this era, it is difficult to do business without a background, and it will also facilitate future bank loans.

In fact, as long as it is completed within five years, it will not affect Fang Bai's main route.

Spending 2 million yuan, coupled with newspaper publication, a physical store has been built, workers notarized it, police personnel maintained the site, and there are mountains of prizes, how could it be fake.

Xinghai Company has this strength!
All of a sudden, Xinghai Square became famous.

Anyone who has read the Wencheng Daily knows about Xinghai Square.

Moreover, this lottery activity was like a fire, and it quickly spread throughout Wencheng and spread throughout Wencheng.

There are still some promotional activities that have not been launched yet and will not really start until the event starts tomorrow.
