The main ingredient of soap is sodium stearate, which is mainly a mixture of various animal fats and vegetable oils, such as butter, mutton fat and coconut oil. It must be refined, bleached, deodorized and other refining treatments before production. It is then subjected to caustic soda saponification reaction to produce sodium fatty acid. It also contains surfactants and a certain amount of flavor.
Soaps are divided into soaps with different functions. Sulfur soap is soap with sulfur added, which has a good effect on seborrheic dermatitis and scabies.
There is also soap that can kill bacteria, which is more common. The bactericidal ingredient in soap is mainly a chemical component called "triclocarban", which can effectively remove and inhibit bacteria.
Triclocarban can quickly kill dozens of pathogenic bacteria such as fungi, yeasts, Gram-positive bacteria and Gram-negative bacteria, as well as hepatitis A and hepatitis B viruses, and is harmless to the human body.
Currently, most soaps on the market are only good for cleaning. Ye Shuning plans to improve the ingredients of soaps, making their antibacterial and antimicrobial properties a selling point.
The main ingredient in laundry detergent is sodium alkylbenzene sulfonate, which has excellent cleaning properties. However, most current laundry detergents contain harmful ingredients such as phosphorus, aluminum, and alkali. Ye Shuning plans to remove these harmful ingredients and add new ingredients such as surfactants, builders, stabilizers, dispersants, fragrances, and enzymes to the laundry detergent to further enhance its cleaning properties and leave clothes with a pleasant fragrance.
Zeng Bosheng personally looked at the samples made by Ye Shuning, and found that they were indeed much better than the current products of their Daily Chemical Factory No. 2.
Zeng Bosheng tried the soap made by Ye Shuning's experiment. The soap had rich foam, good cleaning ability, and felt very delicate. He smelled his washed hands and there was a pleasant fragrance.
He was pleasantly surprised. "Boss Ye, this soap is really good. Is this what our future products will be like?"
Ye Shuning nodded and said, "This is basically a finalized experimental product. What do you think?"
Zeng Bosheng exclaimed, "It's really good. It's much better than our previous products. I think it's even better than those imported products. After seeing your sample, I have more confidence in the future development of our factory."
Ye Shuning smiled and said, "The ingredients of the soap I'm researching are no longer as simple as before. There are many more ingredients added to it, so naturally, those foreign products can't compare. And the laundry detergent is the same. I've made some changes based on the original, removing harmful substances like phosphorus and aluminum, and adding some additives to make it more effective and harmless to the human body."
Zeng Bosheng asked, "Should we launch these two products first?"
Ye Shuning said, "Currently, the soap and laundry detergent production lines are the first to undergo technical upgrades. As long as they install and debug the equipment according to the process flow I've developed, they can start production directly. I've also already created the ingredient list for the products."
Zeng Bosheng said, "Then I'll ask the production and purchasing departments to prepare. First, please make a list of raw materials, and then ask the purchasing department to purchase the raw materials."
Zeng Bosheng is in a very anxious mood now. He wishes everything could be ready and the new product could be produced immediately.
He had a hunch that their product would become a nationwide hit.
He knew that Ye Shuning had once designed an advertisement for mountain bikes, which were now selling like hotcakes. He wondered if their Daily Chemical Factory No. 2 might also do some advertising.
Zeng Bosheng said with a smile, "Boss Ye, I heard that the mountain bike designed by Boss Li is very popular now. You even designed the advertisement for it? Do you think we should also advertise our products?"
Ye Shuning didn't expect that Director Zeng was so forward-thinking. Not many people in the country have the awareness of advertising now.
Ye Shuning smiled and said, "Director Zeng, your idea is excellent. I also think we should advertise to let consumers know about the many advantages of our products. Only through comparison can the superiority of our products be demonstrated."
Zeng Bosheng said, "Don't bother two people with one thing. Can you come up with the creative idea for this ad? I heard the mountain bike ad you designed was very successful."
This wasn't difficult for Ye Shuning at all. She simply went to the research institute and searched online for a similar advertisement. "Okay, then I'll design the ads for the soap and laundry detergent. We'll also shoot some posters, or make some billboards to promote them in public places with a lot of traffic."
Ye Shuning went home that night and looked up some relevant ads, then designed ads for several products. After that, she hired professional photographers to shoot the ads.
The commercial was simple and quick to film. It aired on television before the product even hit the market. Billboards were also placed in public areas. Gradually, many people became aware of the new product from Haizhou No. 2 Daily Chemical Factory.
The specific ingredients of the product have been determined, and the process flow has also been formulated. Li Shaozhong, together with several equipment engineers and technicians from the Second Daily Chemical Factory, also completed the adjustment of the soap and laundry detergent production lines on schedule.
When the first product from the new production line came out, everyone was excited. The product passed the test and was very good. Their product trial production was fine, and then they could go into full-scale production.
Ye Shuning also designed beautiful colors, shapes, and packaging for the soap. The packaging for the laundry detergent is also eye-catching and beautiful.
As soon as the products of Haizhou Daily Chemical Factory No. 2 were launched on the market, they immediately surpassed similar products on the market, not only domestic brands but also foreign brands.
The soap produced by Haizhou Daily Chemical Factory No. 2 has strong cleaning power, rich foam, pleasant fragrance, and bactericidal and antibacterial effects. It is very suitable for washing hands and bathing, and soon became popular among female comrades.
The detergent has a strong cleaning effect and can remove some very stubborn stains. The washed clothes feel very fresh and have a pleasant fragrance, which immediately surpasses other brands of detergent on the market.
The prices of several products in these two categories produced by Haizhou Daily Chemical Factory No. 2 are almost the same as those of similar products. Since the prices are the same, people will of course choose the better ones.
Therefore, these two types of products from Haizhou Daily Chemical Factory No. 2 were in short supply as soon as they were put on the market. Orders were increasing day by day, and it was impossible not to expand production.
After all, they are currently only selling their new products in Haizhou and surrounding areas. With their existing sales channels, the products will soon be sold all over the country, and they will probably be chased by others every day. Currently, Haizhou Daily Chemical Factory No. 2 has already started working overtime to produce.
Li Shaozhong would not treat the workers unfairly, and he and Zeng Bosheng proposed that as long as the workers worked overtime, they should be paid overtime pay, so that the workers' efforts would not be in vain. No matter who worked, the more they worked, the more they would be paid.
How could Zeng Bosheng disagree with Li Shaozhong's suggestion when even Li Shaozhong, a private shareholder, was so concerned about the workers? And who wouldn't want to earn more?
