Rebirth: My 80s

Chapter 344 Two “magic weapons”

Just one day later, Li Jiankun found Chen Chunxian again.

During this period, he even made a trip to the post and telecommunications office and made an international long-distance call to Hong Kong City.

It's still evening.

At this time, the training class next door was over, and it was almost lunch time. The researchers had to go back to have lunch, so it was more appropriate to talk behind closed doors.

Chen Chunxian saw a roll of paper in his hand with an iron egg stamped there, and asked in surprise: "So fast?"

"It's not a hard thing." Li Jiankun sat on the sofa and motioned for him to come over.

Chen Chunxian looked dull. He couldn't think of anything that could meet the three characteristics mentioned by the other party.

It's only been a day... No!Just one day.

With a trace of suspicion, Chen Chunxian sat down next to him.Li Jiankun unfolded the paper roll, which was two pieces of 16-karat white paper. He handed one over first.

After Chen Chunxian took it, he couldn't wait to take a look. He wanted to see if it was a real "magic weapon".

I saw four pictures drawn on the white paper, one big and three small, like cartoons. The painter was really impatient.

The larger one is a finished picture of a strange product, and the smaller one is a "deconstructed picture." This product has a simple structure and is roughly divided into three parts: the inner core, the outer covering, and a section of rubber strip underneath.

Chen Chunxian stared at it again and again with wide eyes, but couldn't figure out what this oval-shaped cushion was.

Why is it so high-tech?
Why is it irreplaceable?
Why is the market so hungry?
"What is this?"

"Aunt towel."

Chen Chunxian: "???"

In 1980, nappies had not yet entered the country, and there were generally two types of products with the same function for women: reusable napkins and disposable large-size toilet paper.

The disadvantages are obvious.

The former is not hygienic, has a thin layer of cloth, and is not leak-proof.

The latter material is rough and extremely uncomfortable.

Li Jiankun saw that there were questions on his forehead and had to explain himself.

After hearing this, Chen Chunxian's face turned red, "You gangster, you!"

"Professor, what you said is that this thing has become popular abroad. It is a very serious product and has great effects. The effect I am talking about is firstly for women, and secondly, for us."

Li Jiankun said with a serious face: "It is extremely comfortable to use, far more than my aunt's belt and toilet paper can compare to... Don't look at me like this, I must have never used it."

Then why do you know so much?

Chen Chunxian looked strange.

Li Jiankun, being thick-skinned, continued: "We have a population of one billion. If you roughly fold it in half, there will be [-] million women. Think about how far-reaching it is to give them care and health. On the other hand, they will be happy... … Even if it’s just a subset of consumers, how broad is that support?”

Chen Chunxian was startled, this was true.

He suppressed the embarrassment in his heart, and the blush on his face extended to his neck. He lowered his head and looked at it again. After studying for a while, he asked: "So it is a mature product from abroad?"

"Yes."

"Does it have high-tech properties?"

Chen Chunxian can understand the irreplaceability and market scarcity.After all, this guy swore that the belt and toilet paper would be useless without them.

Li Jiankun poked a spot on the paper and explained: "In order to satisfy the comfort, its material is extremely soft. As shown in the deconstruction diagram I drew, it is mainly composed of three parts.

"The first is the inner core, which needs to ensure a certain degree of water absorption. I'm not an expert, so I can't tell you why, but I imagine that just filling it with cotton won't work. Cotton is also expensive, and some high-tech water-absorbent materials are needed.

"The second is the outer covering. I know what material this is - non-woven fabric."

Non-woven fabrics, also known as "non-woven fabrics", are like cloth and paper and are characterized by moisture-proof, breathable, flexible, light and thin.

It has been widely used in different industries in later generations, such as masks, shoe covers, armholes, etc.

But these days, our country has not yet mass-produced it.

From this point of view, it is undoubtedly high-tech.However, it is not a very new technology. Non-woven fabrics were born during World War II and have developed in several stages.

Li Jiankun thought of aunt towels based on non-woven fabrics.Among the researchers participating in the service department, there are experts in materials science, and non-woven fabrics are the research result of one of them.

Needless to say, this is a huge industry, and the results of early research are actually left to eat dust in the laboratory... What is this called?

This is called guarding the cornucopia without knowing it.

After Chen Chunxian heard his explanation, he suddenly understood, and looked like he was waiting for the next step.

Li Jiankun didn't know why and said, "What's wrong?"

"Didn't you say it has three parts? There is another one?" Chen Chunxian poked at the small picture with the adhesive strips.

The reason why it can be seen that it is a tape is because Li Jiankun used a pencil to draw a "tearing and sticky" effect.

"Oh, this is not high-tech. It seems to be called 'Quick and Easy Adhesive'. It's just a convenient adhesive strip." Chen Chunxian asked: "What is it used for?"

I don't understand, I really don't understand.

Li Jiankun gestured with his hands: "In order to prevent it from slipping or moving, we can fix it on the trousers."

A picture appeared in Chen Chunxian's mind. He quickly shook his head and shook it out. His ears were all red.

You stinky rascal!
Just say it and make a gesture.

"How do you feel? Does it meet the three major characteristics? If this product is launched, it will definitely cause great repercussions at least in big cities, and there will be no shortage of economic benefits and reputation."

"Reputation?" Chen Chunxian frowned and asked, "Are you sure?"

"Professor, we need to open up our business and open our minds. Just tell me, is this a good product that benefits the people?"

That's true, but Chen Chunxian's brows didn't relax much. He was asked to develop such a thing...

The hurdle in my heart is really difficult to overcome.

Li Jiankun had completely different ideas from him.On the contrary, he felt that this was very beneficial, had a gimmick, could ferment, and could attract widespread attention to the service department.

As long as the product is good, it will undoubtedly receive wider support.

However, Li Jiankun actually expected this situation.This is an extremely sexually conservative era.So he has another plan.

These two solutions, or two products, can be developed at the same time. They are a basic model and a por model.

"I have another product here, but the difficulty will increase a lot."

Li Jiankun said and spread out another 16-karat white paper in his hand.

and also?

Chen Chunxian was surprised. He put aside all the things in his mind and looked at Li Jiankun first.

What kind of head is this?

He came up with two "magic weapons" that no one else could think of in one day.

I saw that what was drawn on the paper was something that looked like a trousers when combined. It was also deconstructed into pictures, one large, three small, and four pictures.

Chen Chunxian was speechless when he saw it, so maybe this is something that can be worn as pants?
"Why do you think about these things?"

Li Jiankun shook the paper and said, "What's wrong with this thing? It couldn't be more serious. I named it 'Baby Diaper'."

Chen Chunxian was slightly startled, and then realized that he had thought wrongly, and asked: "For babies?"

"Can you? Instead of diapers, what do you say?"

Chen Chunxian's eyes brightened slightly, he took the paper from his hand and looked at it carefully.

Li Jiankun explained at the right time.

In 1980, diapers had not yet been born. This thing was born out of the space suit. In the early years, astronauts went to space. If they were in a hurry, they could only pull it in their pants. Needless to say, it was cumbersome and uncomfortable.

There was a Chinese scientist in the back who invented a "diaper" that solved this problem very well.

This kind of "diaper" later entered civilian use and became a very common diaper in later generations.

Because it is something that has not yet been born, Li Jiankun can only say that he got the inspiration from his aunt's towel and made it by himself.

After a while, Chen Chunxian's tiger body trembled, and his eyes were filled with light, "This thing is great!"

No matter how affordable the price is, every parent wants to use it for their children.

What a stinky boy, his head is so handy!

"But it's difficult."

Li Jiankun poured a basin of cold water on his head. He stretched out his hand again and gestured: "Professor, think about it, a baby's urine is like that..."

"Don't say that, just say this, I understand!" Chen Chunxian frowned.

Li Jiankun smiled and continued: "And according to my idea, it must withstand at least a few soaks of urine, and it will take a long time. Otherwise, if you change it every time, I'm afraid not many families can afford it.

“As a result, first of all, the requirements for the water absorption of the inner core are very high.

"Secondly, in order to protect the baby's bottom and prevent leakage, a special coating must be added to the internal and external non-woven fabrics."

He said, blinked and looked at Chen Chunxian.

Sure enough, Chen Chunxian waved his hand and said: "The coating is simple and can be achieved using plasma technology. It is also odorless and non-toxic."

That is, otherwise I can take out the diaper?

Know that this is your technical area.
