The Richest Man in the Heavens Starts from Outlaws of the Marsh

Chapter 320: Products that subvert the market

He Yongmin took the technical information and went back to report, while Du Yu started to arrange the application process and production process of related products.

Technology like this developed by Longlin has long been implemented in the Wei Dynasty in the Water Margin world, and is used to solve the heating and cooling problems of residences in various places.

In fact, the technological development trajectory of Wei, a country he created, is very strange. Some aspects develop step by step along the direction of the main world, while others develop in accordance with the direction set by the Dragon Scale Group.This has created a rather strange current situation, that is, some aspects are even more developed than the main world, while some aspects are several versions behind.

Thermoconcentrating rings and thermostatic regulators are one of the better aspects of Dawei's development, and because the development of electricity is slow and the border areas with harsh climates have limited means of heating and cooling, so 'Shi Kun' provides a lot of support, compared to what has been done before. It is a second generation technology.

Du Yu was not in a hurry, and still took the first-generation results of the Dragon Scale team's development and prepared to turn them into another profitable tool for the Xinghai Group.

With the help of He Yongmin, the superiors quickly reviewed this technology and conducted various tests on it, and the conclusions reached were very positive.

Even a simple application to indoor temperature regulation can save a huge amount of electricity and reduce a huge burden on the country.Once commercialized, it will definitely be a bug-level product that can subvert the market. All air conditioners, electric heaters, and even fans on the market will be immediately eliminated.It will have a huge impact domestically, not to mention it can be used as a flagship product to enter the international market and earn huge amounts of foreign exchange.

Moreover, this technology can be deeply explored. Its conversion rate of 85%+ into the sun is far higher than the current level of 18%-24%. Once fully understood, this technology can even replace most thermal power plants for power generation. It is truly Achieve clean energy.Of course, this requires a certain amount of time for in-depth research, so the above research institutes attach great importance to it, so this technology is also passed to the desks of superiors with a higher confidentiality level.

After some discussions, the decision was made to develop this technology in depth.

So He Yongmin came to Xinghai Electric to meet with Du Yu again, and this time there were some higher-level figures in the meeting.

After some discussion, Du Yu offered this technology in exchange for the license to use it in the field of residential room temperature adjustment, which can be regarded as a win-win cooperation in which everyone gets what they need.

The reason for doing this is not because he doesn't know how to strive for greater interests, but because this technology originally originated from a project that was abandoned due to solar helium flashes in the wandering earth world. Even the Dragon Scale Team has not developed it further, and he has no energy. To follow up, it would be better to leave such a time-consuming and labor-intensive matter to the state.

Against this background, Xinghai Electric started the product application process, and the process ran very smoothly under special care.

At the same time, Du Yu started the process of commercializing the technology. The first thing he did was to spend a huge amount of money to acquire a glass factory in Haicheng, and stopped the factory to transform and replace the production line, preparing to produce polythermal ring technology. of glass.

As for the equipment, he has no intention of producing it himself. Da Wei in the Water Margin world has the first-generation technology production line that has been eliminated. He can dismantle it and use it directly to produce it first and then consider R&D and replacement. He has to find a job for Zhan Haobo and the others. That's it.

The glass factory can buy ready-made ones, but the thermostats have to be produced by themselves. The biotechnology laboratory can't produce results in a short time, and the factory is empty, so he started to transform it, "importing" production from the Water Margin world. The equipment, of course, is said to be self-developed to the outside world. Anyway, Xinghai Technology has always been a blockbuster if it does not make a move.

Du Yu's frequent actions naturally attracted the attention of friends in the business circle, who all came to him to invest and get a share of the pie.

Considering that once the room temperature regulator is mass-produced, it will inevitably hit the air-conditioning market with a devastating force, he really needs some 'friends' to help share the pressure.

So he split Xinghai Electric as the parent company into a subsidiary, Siji Chunfeng, and prepared to operate the room temperature regulator as a flagship product.Still the old method, Xinghai Electric exclusively holds 70% of the shares, and the remaining 30% is used to finance share expansion.

For this reason, he also specially prepared a so-called investment meeting. In fact, only a few people could be invited. Except for friends in Haicheng business district, everyone was a big shot in the investment industry.

After a fierce competition, only Guangming Investment Committee and Penguin won the big shares. They each took 10%. Others could only bid for a few scattered shares. I think Tang Lu and Kang Songjie only got 2% of the shares. Even if 0.5% of the shares are a lot, some people only get [-] shares.

In this round of financing alone, Du Yu has obtained more than a dozen small targets. It can be said that he does not have to come up with the start-up capital himself. This is the absolute advantage brought by technology.After the financing, Siji Chunfeng began to be high-profile, publicizing that a product developed to subvert the temperature adjustment market was about to be released. Everyone from all walks of life was asked to look forward to this.

As soon as the advertisement came out, it immediately aroused great repercussions. Whether it was colleagues in the related industries in the market or people who were eating melons, they were all talking about it. Some people questioned whether it was false propaganda, and some people thought that Xinghai Technology's products have always been unexpected. You really can't tell.

In any case, the air-conditioning market slumped as soon as the Four Seasons Spring Breeze advertisement came out, and many northerners were holding on to their money instead of paying their heating bills in advance.

A promotional advertisement caused such a situation, which naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of many stakeholders. Criticism and attacks on Xinghai Technology followed one after another, and some trolls even engaged in cyber violence.

Du Yu scoffed at this, and even disdained to allow artificial intelligence to fight back and let it ferment on the Internet. Are black fans also fans? The more violent the attack on Four Seasons Spring Breeze is now, the more fierce the rebound will be when the product comes out in the future.

He is now focusing on the factory. In addition to retraining the employees of the original glass factory, he also needs to recruit a large number of people to produce thermostats.

The recruitment advertisement silenced many trolls. Seeing that Xinghai Technology was coming, many people were immediately excited. What made them even more excited was the treatment offered by the Four Seasons Spring Breeze Factory.

For a time, many people came to Haicheng from other places to apply for jobs, especially in the cities around Haicheng. It is always better to be closer to home than to drive screws.

Du Yu didn't expect that nearly [-] people would apply for the first phase of [-] positions, which would allow the company to do a good job of screening.

Naturally, he is not personally responsible for recruitment matters, but for the sake of fairness, he still sets some standards personally.

One and a half months later, the workers' training period ended, and the factory's equipment was updated and trial production began.

The temperature-condensing ring and thermostat are core technologies. They are both placed in the industrial zone where Xinghai Electric is located. The glass factory is not very technical. In addition to the production of special glass, there is also assembly process, so the management is also divided into two. There is a team, but they are all under Du Yu's control and implement the management regulations he personally formulated.

Through trial production, the cost price has been roughly determined. A complete set of room temperature regulators for a 500-square-meter room is about [-] yuan. Of course, as the production scale expands, it can be further reduced, but that is a later matter and cannot be reduced now.

After finding out the cost price of production in the main world, Du Yu called a meeting with everyone in the company to study the pricing issue. After some discussion, he chose to adopt a routine with Rainbow Bridge's translator, that is, artificially divided into several grades and priced separately.

The entry-level basic version is set at 1500 yuan/set, the junior version is set at 2500 yuan/set, the intermediate version is set at 4500 yuan/set, the advanced version is set at 9500 yuan/set, and finally there is the supreme customized version, which is provided according to customer needs. price reference.

Generally speaking, the price range is very wide. In fact, the entry version is enough to meet daily needs, and the price is actually quite affordable.

Du Yu made a final decision on the sales plan. Then, while Siji Chunfeng's factory was working hard to improve the yield rate and increase inventory, the sales department was flooded with advertisements.

Especially with the participation of big names such as Penguin, the publicity on the Internet is even greater. It can be said that the product has received great attention before it is even launched on the market.

After the pre-sale was opened, the initial 5 discounted trial versions were sold out by enthusiastic netizens in less than [-] minutes.

Du Yu looked at the background data and was a little surprised. In his opinion, such a temperature regulator should not be targeted at the cold earth in the north. Why are so many southern netizens also joining in the fun?
