Chapter 471 How Can I Afford to Offend You
In just one day, marshmallows became popular all over the city.
All the children who saw it couldn't walk.
1 cent is not too expensive, it is equivalent to two or three popsicles, half a movie ticket, a handful of melon seeds, a raw egg...
Anyway, 90% of parents will buy one for their children to try. After trying it today, they will want to try it again tomorrow.
The population of Beijing is huge, and 100 machines are simply not enough to meet the demand.
Besides, not all 100 machines were deployed, only more than 80, and there were more than a dozen left as substitutes.
In just two days, marshmallows became a hot topic and almost everyone knew about it.
At the same time, the news that Cheng Hui "saved" a sugar factory on the verge of bankruptcy also spread through the employees of the sugar factory.
At the same time, word also spread about their factory's various enviable benefits.
Of course, Cheng Hui would not favor one over the other. Free medical care, overtime pay, and wedding gifts, which were available in other factories, were also available at the Weifeng Food Factory in Beijing.
Suddenly, those who had found new jobs at the sugar factory came to Guo Dajun and asked to come back.
Guo Dajun rejected them all.
"You all have new jobs and places to eat. Now give the opportunities to those who need them more. Besides, our factory is not hiring new people at the moment."
With more than 80 machines, it is almost full, if not saturated. It is just the right position. If there are more, it will not be good. Therefore, Cheng Hui does not plan to recruit new people.
Jiang Ming came for another routine visit. He looked at Cheng Hui with admiration and said, "It seems that the orders worth billions of yuan have not put any pressure on you at all. In more than a month, you have made two more machines."
Cheng Hui smiled and said, "It's not a cotton machine. It's just an improvement on the original one. It's a piece of cake."
Jiang Ming just opens his mouth, what a piece of cake? Then why haven’t I seen anyone raise their hand in all these years?
This one is a piece of cake, but the other one is not.
"I heard that the microwave oven has been made? Can I take a look?" he asked a little excitedly.
Chen Xiangxue waited for two days but got no news, then he heard about Jiang Ming and wanted to see him!
When Jiang Ming heard this, he could no longer sit still.
Cheng Hui nodded: "Let's go, I also want to go and take a look."
The two went to the laboratory together.
In the laboratory, more than a dozen researchers finally stayed.
Because Cheng Hui saw that they all had a positive attitude and were working very hard.
And she really needs obedient "scientific research monkeys".
When they saw Cheng Hui coming, everyone in the room stopped what they were doing and started applauding.
Before the finished product was made, they had some doubts in their hearts, wondering if Cheng Hui was giving blind instructions...
Although it makes sense and sounds logical, will this logic really work if you apply it to a microwave oven? Will she be just talking on paper?
But now they have produced the finished product, proving that what they said was true.
Cheng Hui just smiled, looked at the finished product in front of her, and blurted out: "So ugly..."
The original color tin box is really ugly.
Professor Sun said, "It's OK, right? It will look good after a coat of paint! Besides, it's OK as long as it works well, appearance is not important."
Jiang Ming immediately looked at Cheng Hui. He had the same idea before. For a machine, the important thing is performance, not appearance.
But since he saw the oven made by Cheng Hui, his mind changed. If that oven wasn't so good-looking, you wouldn't be able to get so much money even if you cheated.
"Then let me see the performance." Cheng Hui said.
Several people immediately got busy and demonstrated to her.
Heat up various things.
Jiang Ming was stunned!
He has never seen a microwave oven.
If Cheng Hui hadn't asked him to do it, he would have gone to investigate. He didn't even know what a microwave oven was before!
Can you really heat up food in just a few seconds? It's simply divine stuff!
That “ding” sound is as magical as a spell!
Professor Sun and a dozen other scientific researchers have never seen it!
Since the machine was made, they have been having a lot of fun playing with it these past two days, and the "ding" sound never stops.
If they could keep one in the laboratory, they would be more comfortable in the winter as they wouldn't have to go to the boiler room to steam rice, which tastes really bad! It’s better to have a “ding” sound, just like when it was just made.
Cheng Hui saw that they had been fiddling with it for a long time but were only trying to heat something up, and she immediately realized that they didn't know about other functions.
Yes, now in foreign countries, the performance of microwave ovens has just been developed and improved, and problems such as radiation have been solved, and their function is limited to heating.
She immediately called the office and asked them to send some food over, focusing on fish, meat, potatoes, corn, etc.
Then I made steamed fish, braised pork, baked potato chips and popcorn for everyone.
Everyone was numb.
Is this still a pot? Why haven't they heard about it? The point is, it’s fast!
Although the things were made by them, they really didn't know how to use them.
Now that we have seen it, everyone is very excited.
"Engineer Cheng, how much will this cost? I want to buy one." said a "research ape".
Another researcher immediately said, "You can't afford it. I asked around and found that microwave ovens abroad cost around $500."
"Who says I can't afford it? It's just over 1,000 yuan. It's much cheaper than imported TVs."
"I'm talking about foreign microwave ovens! Haven't you read the information? Their microwave ovens are big and heavy, weighing 50 to 60 kilograms, 70 to 80 kilograms. Look at ours, which weighs only 20 kilograms and has more functions than theirs. We must be more expensive than them, right?"
As this man spoke, he looked at Cheng Hui. In fact, he also wanted to buy it, but was afraid that he could not afford it.
Cheng Hui was about to speak, but Jiang Ming stopped her and said, "Okay, okay, we still have to discuss the price. It's confidential for now. Your task is not over yet. The prototype has been made, but where is the production line? Is the production line stable? Can you guarantee the pass rate of the products produced? You should think about this first."
He has to go back for a meeting about the price!
A group of scientific research monkeys looked at Cheng Hui. Don't ask them about the production line because they don't understand.
Jiang Ming also looked at Cheng Hui, so, how could he afford to offend her? Unless you don't want foreign exchange anymore.
