Sail across the sea

Chapter 179
Gao Fan really had no idea how much a bottle of cleaning agent cost.

In later generations, it seems that this kind of bottle should not be worth much.Don’t you see, when you buy a box of mooncakes, you can’t wait to have seven or eight layers of packaging, each layer is more beautiful than the last layer. Obviously, everyone is not stingy with packaging materials.

However, at present, China's plastic production is very limited. In the past, the soft polyvinyl chloride pencil case sold by Chen Xingquan can be sold for one yuan. A high-density polyethylene bottle with a nozzle, Yu Guorong asked for one yuan. It also seems to make sense.

Chen Xingquan was about to continue negotiating with Yu Guorong, but Gao Fan stopped him and asked Yu Guorong:
"Director Yu, you just said that the high unit price of bottles is mainly due to the high cost of making molds. Then I would like to ask, if the molds are ready-made, how much do you sell for each bottle?"

"Is the mold ready?"

Yu Guorong thought for a while and said, "If the molds are ready-made, each bottle is worth [-] cents. However, as I said earlier, you must ensure that you have a certain amount. If you only want three to five hundred pieces, even if you have I won't accept ready-made molds either."

"Of course it won't be three or five hundred." Gao Fan said, "To be honest with Director Yu, my batch of products is going to be exported to Japan, but I'm not sure how much I can export now. As I said just now, in the early days It may be ten thousand or twenty thousand, but if the market is good, one hundred thousand or two hundred thousand is also possible.

"I wonder if this can be done. Please ask Director Yu to help us make the mold first. According to the quotation of Director Yu just now, the quotation including the mold is [-] yuan, and the mold is not included. It is [-] cents, that is, the mold in each bottle. Amortization is fifty cents.

"We originally said that the batch size was 5000 pieces. After this calculation, this set of molds is [-] yuan. Director Yu thinks my calculation is correct?"

"You just said it was [-] to [-] yuan, of course it has to be calculated as [-] yuan, and a set of molds costs [-] yuan." Yu Guorong argued.

Gao Fan smiled and said, "Lao Yu, it's meaningless for you to talk like this. I came here to discuss cooperation with you, Lao Yu. If you count it like this, don't you push me out?"

"How can this be pushed out, Brother Gao, you think too much..." Yu Guorong blushed and hesitated.

Gao Fan said just now that he wanted to order [-] to [-] bottles. As the merchant, Yu Guorong must calculate the allocation of molds according to the minimum batch, that is, spread the cost of molds to [-] bottles instead of It will be calculated according to [-] bottles, which is the basic business sense.

If the opponent is replaced by Chen Xingquan, Yu Guorong will definitely not fight for the algorithm of [-] to [-] yuan, because Chen Xingquan definitely understands this and will not be fooled by him.

Yu Guorong saw that Gao Fan was young and came from Maolin Province, and felt that Gao Fan might not understand these tricks, so he had the idea of ​​defrauding Gao Fan.If the deceit is successful, Gao Fan will at least back down a step, agreeing to calculate the cost of the mold according to the amortization method of 7500 bottles, so that the cost of the mold will be calculated as [-] yuan.

When Yu Guorong said this, he also took into account that Gao Fan might refute, and it would be fine for him to see each other again at that time.

Who would have thought that Gao Fan didn't discuss the algorithm with him, but directly called "Old Yu", which was in contrast to the respectful title of "Director Yu" before.

At Gao Fan's age, it's not too much to call Yu Guorong an uncle, but he just called him "Old Yu", which is implying that Yu Guorong is not a child, but has the ability to talk to Yu Guorong on an equal footing Playing such low-level tricks in front of him.

In the dialogue between smart people, there is no need to talk too clearly, everyone just needs to understand it.

"Brother Gao, it's not my brother, I care about every detail, it's really troublesome to open a new mold. How much money is spent is only one aspect, and how many favors do I have to pay for it." Yu Guorong said miserably to Gao Fan.

"To open a mold, what kind of favor do you need?" Gao Fan didn't understand.

The production methods of plastic products are similar. Basically, a mold is made first, and then the melted plastic is poured on the mold and stamped with a punching machine.After the plastic has cooled, it is removed from the mold and is a final product.

The mold is made of metal, generally steel, so that it can withstand multiple stampings without deformation.

Plastic product factories need a variety of molds, and often have to make special molds according to customer needs. Therefore, in areas where the plastic product industry gathers, there will be professional mold factories to provide supporting facilities for plastic product factories.

In Gao Fan's humble opinion, this is what the mold factory is for, and the plastic factory is equivalent to the mold factory's customers.The mold factory didn't even have time to invite Yu Guorong to dinner, so how could it let Yu Guorong take advantage of it?
Chen Xingquan understood this, he explained to Gao Fan:
"To make molds, we need to find someone to do it in a state-owned factory. The state-owned factory is unwilling to take on such a business. We all rely on personal relationships to find someone to do it. They make molds for us, which is considered private work. If they are caught by the factory manager, they will He was punished. Therefore, we need to find someone to open the mold, in addition to giving money, we also need human kindness."

"Why do we have to go to a state-owned factory to do it? There are so many plastic factories in Renqiao, so no one has opened a mold factory?" Gao Fan asked.

Chen Xingquan said: "We in Renqiao have a few private mold factories, but their equipment is all old machine tools eliminated by the state-owned factories, so it is okay to make rougher molds.

"The bottle you want, Gao Fan, must have a very fine mold. You can't find these private factories to make it."

And this kind of thing?

Gao Fan is quite knowledgeable.

In fact, this is the problem of the traverser.In the era before Gao Fan's time travel, industrial facilities for all walks of life in China were ready-made.There are hundreds of industrial agglomerations across the country, and sometimes the output of a certain product in a town or county is equivalent to [-] to [-] percent of the global output.

In these industrial agglomeration areas, all the supporting facilities needed for the development of industries are readily available.There is no need to worry about things like opening a mold.

At present, the scale of China's manufacturing industry is still very small, and the national output of some industries is not as good as that of a foreign company. How can we talk about supporting industries.

"I understand." Gao Fan said, "How about this, Lao Yu, I will order from you for [-] bottles first, and the price will be [-] yuan.

"You find someone to make the mold first, the design of the nozzle is still a bit difficult and needs to be debugged.

"After the mold is ready, you first provide me with 500 bottles so that I can send samples to Japan. Once the market in Japan is opened, you will then switch to mass production.

"As for if I need more bottles in the future, you can drop me another [-] cents on the price, which is calculated as [-] cents per bottle. What do you think?"
