That's ruthless!
Later, accompanied by Secretary Dong, we arrived at the small appliance section. Most of the products were manufactured for Philips' personal care products, such as shavers and hair dryers.
Xing Baohua felt that there were still too few products; just three or five items was not enough!
Forget about quality issues for now, let's diversify our product offerings first.
"Kitchenware should also be included, especially small gadgets. Housewives abroad like to make desserts and use egg beaters a lot, so we should also make electric egg beaters. This is basically not technically demanding; it just requires a motor, two batteries, and the exterior materials should be made to look more upscale."
After Xing Baohua finished speaking, Secretary Dong quickly wrote it down.
Then Xing Baohua saw the electric iron and said, "This thing needs a water bottle, the kind that sprays water after pressing twice or an automatic water sprayer."
"Understood!" Secretary Dong replied.
Have you gotten an electric toothbrush?
"No."
"We definitely need this. Philips already has it, and it's ridiculously expensive."
"I've never seen this product on the market! I've never even heard of it." Secretary Dong thought for a moment and realized he really didn't remember ever seeing it. The rice export department had brought in all the Philips appliances available on the market, and the R&D department made whatever they had on hand.
They even disassembled the product to examine its internal structure. Since it was an export product, they tried every means to avoid patent disputes.
Many products have simple structures, either mechanical or electronic. The high price of these products, which mostly use electronic components in their structure, is due to the cost of these electronic components.
Electronic components themselves aren't expensive; it's the programming code inside that's costly. Once patent issues are involved, the price skyrockets. Ultimately, the cost is passed on to the consumer.
The electronic components made from rice are the cheapest in the world, thanks not only to sophisticated industrial manufacturing but also to skilled programmers.
"This thing has been around since the 60s and 70s. You probably didn't see it because the purchasing department didn't notice it. You should remind them."
As Xing Baohua spoke, seeing Secretary Dong nod, he continued, "The principle behind this is very simple. It's a small motor with a very high rotation speed as the main component. You can ask the tape recorder motor R&D team to provide you with a solution with a rotation speed of around 5000-8000. It uses rapid vibration to complete the brushing process."
As he spoke, Xing Baohua sighed. This thing didn't seem difficult to make, but where was the high-end selling point? It just lacked a gimmick.
"Let's research sonic vibration! In the future, we can use sonic vibration as a gimmick to market our rice electric toothbrush."
