There were no complicated materials and the process of developing alkaline dry batteries was relatively smooth. The capacity was increased a little bit that day, and it will be put into commercial production after the production process is improved.

The assembly line takes time to prepare, so the factory is planned to be located near Chinatown to take advantage of the cheap labor and convenient transportation here to save costs.

At present, not much attention is paid to environmental protection.

Stay in the so-called "Mason Lab".

While the researchers continued to make battery samples, Han Chudong worked alone, using foam to make the car body. He selected usable parts from a large number of toys, pieced them together, and made a rear-wheel drive version of the toy car in the evening.

The battery used is their own, and the speed is quite good. If a transmission rod is added, it can become four-wheel drive.

In his opinion.

This is a product that will sell well for at least twenty years and bring in a steady stream of revenue, so we pay more attention to it.

Unfortunately, this first-generation toy car was soon targeted by the Alaskan Malamute puppy and fell apart with one kick.

That doesn't matter.

He has already drawn a rough model drawing. The next step is to apply for a patent and start mass production when the time is right. The process is not complicated. The produced parts can be directly packed into boxes, allowing consumers to assemble them themselves according to the instructions, saving even the assembly process.

Looking at it from another angle, it might also stimulate battery sales and save advertising costs.

With more than two million US dollars available for investment, opportunities to make money also increase. However, currently they are all small gadgets that rely on quantity to make money. The project of producing and selling dry batteries has not been completed yet, so Han Chudong continued to consider other projects.

He wanted to create a product like Wang Laboratories' typewriter, with a higher profit margin per unit, something that would make money faster.

But I have no idea yet.

The level of technology was not high enough to produce personal computers, and the cost of entering the automobile manufacturing field was too high.

The three most profitable industries recognized by the world today are oil, arms, and drugs. Han Chudong cannot get into the first two, and he dares not touch the last one.

The next best option is real estate, insurance, banking, brokerage and other businesses that are the favorite of Wall Street people. Real estate must not be touched at the moment as the economy is heading towards depression. He does have some ideas about the last three, but because he doesn't understand them well enough and doesn't have enough capital, they remain at the fantasy stage.

He looked down upon those who made money slowly, and the highly profitable industries required high investment. After making some money in a short period of time, Han Chudong became a little arrogant again...

A little after five in the afternoon.

As usual, I went to the company to check the accounts.

I learned from Mr. Joe Austin that Baofeng Electric Appliance Store No. 8 has sold more than 20,000 US dollars today, and there is expected to be another peak in sales in the evening.

After giving a few compliments to encourage him, Han Chudong continued:

"Joe, go around Los Angeles tomorrow and see if there are any suitable stores. If the progress is fast enough, we may be able to catch the Thanksgiving sales peak. The store in Echo Park is too small. It would be best if we could double or triple the size. There should be a Baofeng Electric in all the densely populated areas such as Hollywood, Long Beach, and East Los Angeles by next year."

"But you just said a few days ago that we should stop and digest for a while, let the new employees adapt to the company model, and train a group of salesmen and deliverymen."

"Things are still going according to plan. We still have more than half a month to prepare. I have invented another very profitable product. I don't have to worry about funding. It would be nice to accelerate the expansion appropriately."

Mr. Austin was a little speechless when he heard Han Chudong's words.

It’s not that I’m questioning Han Chudong’s decision, but I’m wondering how such a young Chinese person can have so many ideas about making money.

If the report card of the previous "Han Chudong" was shown to him, Mr. Austin might not think so. He made an OK gesture and replied, "Okay, boss, I will look around tomorrow, bring a map, and then show you the location of the selected store..."

The current head of Mango Toy Company is Wilbur Vanaro, who is 35 years old, looks relatively stable, and previously worked as a marketing assistant in the product department at Disney.

He came to Han Chudong with a letter and whispered, "I need to talk to you about something in private. Can I go to your office?"

Han Chudong thought he was going to resign, but when he saw the words "Los Angeles Federal Court" written on the envelope, he realized it was a subpoena.

He nodded and walked into the office, took the subpoena and opened it to examine it.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

It said that a company called "Duncan YO-YO" claimed that the Super Magic Ball infringed their appearance patent and that they needed to go to court in a week to settle the matter.

"They are jealous of our company because they see how much money we make. Yo-yos have been around for a long time and they all look the same. Why do they say we are infringing on their patents? What's more, it's a patent for a funny appearance. I dare say our yo-yos are absolutely original. I'll go there with my lawyer next week. It's no big deal."

There was disapproval in his tone, and Han Chudong didn't take it seriously at all.

I applied for a patent for the roller yo-yo about two months ago, and it has been approved, which means that no one has applied for the same patent, at least in the United States.

Mr. Wilbur Vanaro said: "I don't think it's a big problem either. The Super Magic Ball is very popular and almost no one buys traditional yo-yos anymore. Duncan Yo-Yo Company sells traditional yo-yos, but the shapes are different. You can't say we are infringing on someone's rights just because they are both round. We may just be hyping it up."

"It's okay. We make more money. It's normal for people to keep an eye on us. Remember to find someone to keep an eye on this company. I haven't infringed its patents, but I'm worried that this company will infringe on my patents."

The dog was still in the car. Han Chudong put the subpoena on the table, stretched his waist and continued: "By the way, are there any pirated products of our company on the market?"

"The agents haven't given us any feedback, so there shouldn't be any. Do you know who is pirating our products?"

"I'm just asking casually. Next year, I'll arrange for people to conduct random inspections at toy wholesale markets across the country. Remember to remind the agents that if anyone is found selling pirated products, their agency rights will be revoked and they will be held accountable. Don't tell them directly, but let them know my attitude. Do you understand?"

Understanding Han Chudong's meaning, Mr. Vanaro nodded and asked, "Do you know any good lawyers? It is very important to hire an excellent lawyer. As far as I know, Mango Toys does not have a legal advisor yet, right?"

"Well, don't worry. If you have money, why worry about not being able to find a good lawyer? You can all go home after you're done. I'm going home first..."
