A pleasant life in a courtyard

Chapter 306 Who is harder to eat?

In this era, the marketing of ballpoint pens is comparable to that of foreign countries.

It is still not a popular product in China.

Even though Shanghai Fenghua Ballpoint Pen Factory was the only domestic manufacturer, it had no competitors at the same time.

Their products also don’t have particularly large sales volumes.

According to the information Li Xiang obtained, he reasonably suspected that the sales volume could not even cover the factory's personnel expenses.

Many unprofitable factories during this period should be grateful to the country's policies.

If it were not for the continued support of the country, perhaps they would have disappeared in the long river of history.

Li Xiang's name is still very famous in the manufacturing industry.

With his help, the profitable factory will become even more profitable.

Turning a loss into a profit is not a problem either.

As for steel balls below 2.3 mm, it does take some effort to research at this stage.

But as the factory director said, there is still a gap in quality.

Li Xiangjie used the information in his hands and the factory to roughly estimate how long it would take to solve the quality problem.

There must be quality assurance that matches the price inside and out.

He had to sort out the people and things that worked together here before he could have a chance to think about question 2.

Seizing half of the stationery category is just around the corner.

"You two may have some misunderstandings. It's not that it can't be made, but the quality is not as good as others, and it's prone to oil cuts and oil leaks. In addition, the sales of this product have been tepid, so we haven't invested much money. , so we simply imported this component directly, after all, the cost is almost the same." The director of the ballpoint pen factory explained to the two of them earnestly.

As long as there is full localization and process optimization, the price of ballpoint pens will no longer be so high and will soon come down.

High-end brands must take precautions at this time and seize the opportunity to emerge.

With a little bit of research, you can come up with similar products.

After discussing it with Sun Guoqing, they both felt that it would only last a month or two and there was no need to run in both directions.

This is not BJ, there are not that many people who are convinced by Li Xiang.

Li Xiang and Sun Guoqing, two people who have seen a lot of the world, are a little worried that De is not worthy of their place.

Therefore, the ballpoint pen factory was extremely careful about Li Xiang's arrival, and the reception ceremony was overly grand.

Li Xiang simply wasn't in a hurry right now. He had to eat his food one bite at a time and solve the problem 1 first before getting down to business.

In Li Xiang's expectation, ordinary ballpoint pens are at most a quarter or one-fifth of the price of fountain pens. In addition, ballpoint pens are more convenient to use than fountain pens. Only by adding these two together can the best performance be achieved. bring out its advantages.

But the so-called high-end can't just be shouted casually or raise the price at will.

Li nodded thoughtfully and expressed his understanding. The technical barriers to pen tip steel balls above 2.3 mm are actually not as big as imagined.

The so-called gap mainly lies in the excellence of materials and the accuracy of production machines.

When ordinary series of products open the market, it is natural for them to go higher.

Li Xiang believes that as long as we tighten up on these two items, the quality problem should be solved.

I decided to stay here for a while and overcome the first difficulty first.

The factory itself is willing to cooperate, and the higher-ups have also spoken out.

With the high degree of cooperation from all parties in the unit here.

The two of them led the researchers from the factory, and the experiment was progressing steadily.

After getting through the previous tense period, the two of them were able to free up time every two days, allowing Wang Kaixuan's younger siblings to lead them around.

At this time, Qingpu and Minhang were still in the countryside, but the farmers' spare time life was colorful.

Li Xiang was also lucky enough to participate in their bicycle race. Although he didn't get a good ranking, the process was very enjoyable.

Later, when the weather was nice, I was taken to the People's Park to go rowing.

The rice is still the same as the other pot. If we let these two go rowing in Beihai Park during the BJ, they will definitely have no interest. I enjoyed the scenery of the Bund, visited New World Department Store, attended red song concerts, watched revolutionary dances on the streets, and ate local beauties.

After almost two months, Wang Kaixuan asked Sun Guoqing again if SH was good.

Sun Guoqing was no longer as tough-talking as he was at the beginning.

It seems that staying here for so long has some effects.

. . . . . .

As BJ's phone calls became more and more urgent, the results of the laboratory gradually became clear.

It was time for Li Xiang and Sun Guoqing to pack up and return home.

The day before leaving, Wang Kaixuan practiced it for them.

Another table of good wine and good food was entertained at home.

This time Li Xiang and Sun Guoqing were able to stay here for so long without being too homesick. They must thank Wang Kaixuan's family for their considerate reception.

Although the two tried their best not to let the family spend anything, some hidden expenses cost at least two months of Wang Kaixuan's salary.

"Come on, come on, eat more if you like it. I'm afraid I won't be able to eat such fresh drunken shrimps when I go back." Dad Wang enthusiastically persuaded the two of them.

After two months of training in local cuisine, the delicacies served by Dad Wang this time have become more bold.

Yellow mud snails, drunken shrimps, and drunken crabs were all taken out.

These were pretty good, except that the mud snails couldn't tell which ones should be spit out and which ones should be chewed, so the two of them were quite happy eating them.

It's that moldy amaranth stalk.

Oh yo, it’s so hard to describe.

It's already stinky, but it's steamed with stinky tofu.

Dad Wang said this is called "steamed double odor".

This is obviously adding to the odor.

Li Xiang bit the bullet, took a piece of it, and swallowed it while holding his breath.

Sun Guoqing, on the other hand, had been doing ideological work for a long time, but he could not pass his own psychological test, and his head was shaking like a rattle.

The Wang brothers and sisters were so amused that they laughed so much that their stomachs ached.

Seeing everyone laughing happily, he said unconvinced: "When I come next time, I will bring some bean juice for everyone to try. If everyone can drink it without changing their expressions, I promise to eat it with food. "

Sun Guoqing pointed to the plate of "Steamed Double Smell" and made a bet with everyone.

Several children of the Wang family were aroused by what he said, and they all agreed to the bet.

He also said that he could bring a few more for comparison, and that they would have good things waiting for Sun Guoqing to try next time.

The atmosphere at the wine table was made lively by the unconvinced noises of several people.

At this time, Wang's mother discovered that Wang's father poured herself another cup of Wuliangye that Li Xiang gave them while no one was paying attention.

"Okay, you can drink such a good wine as water." She quickly advised.

"Oh, you are such a happy person today. Why don't I have an extra drink?"

Father Wang's hand holding the wine glass quickly went to the side, stretched his head over his head and took a sip. He stopped Mother Wang with one hand to prevent her from grabbing it.

After sipping it, simply put it on the table.

What it means is, I've touched it and I can't go back.

This scoundrel's actions are like those of a child playing tricks.

When Mrs. Wang saw her husband as an old boy, she was helpless and could only let him go.

But the remaining wine was turned around and locked in the cabinet, not giving him a chance to touch it again.
