Bang!
When a clean and crisp sound is heard, it means that the rice has been cooked by the [Instant Rice Cooker].
Jiro Oda immediately pressed the pocket watch, and the engineers around him looked over excitedly.
"How's it going? Oda-kun, how long?"
"Too fast! This couldn't have been less than fifteen minutes? It's even shorter than we expected."
"This is great! This rice cooker will definitely become a hit in the market."
…
At the urging of the engineer, Jiro Oda looked at his pocket watch and was stunned. He couldn't help screaming: "Twelve minutes and fifty-three seconds, less than thirteen minutes, and I can cook a pot of rice! I'm rich! I'm going to be rich! Haha! I'm going to be rich..."
Cooking a pot of rice in less than thirteen minutes was indeed an incredible thing in that era.
This requires the rice cooker to achieve a very precise and efficient level in temperature control and thermal efficiency improvement.
Without electronic chip control, it is almost impossible to achieve such accurate temperature control purely by mechanical means.
But the solution provided by Lin Huowang cleverly achieved this goal through the expansion coefficients of the two metals.
This kind of ingenuity and clever use amazed all the Japanese engineers present.
"Quick! Turn on the rice cooker and let's taste it carefully to see if the rice cooked in this [Instant Rice Cooker] is delicious..."
Jiro Oda was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. The moment he opened the lid of the rice cooker, the aroma of the hot rice was no worse than those that had been cooking for half an hour.
In fact, when everyone eats the freshly cooked rice, they feel that it is more fragrant, glutinous and delicious than ordinary rice.
"Success! Mr. Oda, this [Instant Rice Cooker] solution you brought is completely feasible. We must apply for a patent immediately."
"Let's set up a company to run the [Instant Rice Cooker] solution! We don't have to actually produce it ourselves, but we can come up with a solution and sell it to major electrical appliance companies like Hitachi, Panasonic, etc..."
"Oda-kun, you are definitely a genius. You can come up with such a great plan. With this plan, you won't have to worry about money for the rest of your life. You will definitely make a lot of money."
…
With the flattery of a group of engineers, Jiro Oda felt very proud.
Without any hesitation, Jiro Oda immediately submitted his resignation to Hitachi the next day.
Then, he founded Oda Electric Co., Ltd. and began to register the patent for the "Instant Rice Cooker" in Japan, the United States, Europe and other parts of the world.
On the other hand, he quickly commissioned the production of a batch of [Instant Rice Cooker] prototypes, and then began to visit major electrical appliance manufacturers in Japan to sell his [Instant Rice Cooker] patent solution.
In this way, Jiro Oda does not need to build a large-scale factory to produce rice cookers, but can use these Japanese electrical appliance manufacturers to sell the [instant rice cooker] to the world.
After seeing Jiro Oda's demonstration of making a pot of rice in 13 minutes, these electrical appliance manufacturers were all attracted and immediately expressed their desire to exclusively purchase Jiro Oda's patented "Instant Rice Cooker" solution at a high price.
After all, shortening the cooking time of rice cookers as much as possible has always been the direction these appliance manufacturers have been working towards.
Now that they have a ready-made solution, they naturally want to monopolize it and leave other competitors far behind.
However……
How could Jiro Oda, who has worked at Hitachi for so many years, not understand the urgency of these electrical appliance manufacturers?
He would not be so foolish as to grant exclusive authorization of the patent. Instead, he negotiated different cooperation plans with every appliance manufacturer that produced rice cookers, seeking greater and longer-term benefits.
Although these electrical appliance manufacturers were very angry and unwilling to accept Jiro Oda's exorbitant demands.
However, if they do not follow up on this generational improvement plan for rice cookers, they will be handing over the market to their competitors.
so……
For Jiro Oda, holding such an exclusive patent solution is simply a sweet commodity.
His goal is to get all Japanese electrical appliance manufacturers to purchase his patented solution and adopt a profit-sharing model based on shipment volume. He wants all electrical appliance manufacturers to make money for him. The more rice cookers they ship, the more money he will make.
Sell [Instant Rice Cooker] all over the world and make Japanese manufacturing a world-renowned strength.
