Xiaomi Heavy Industry, its first entrepreneurial venture!

Chapter 107 My Mission! (Second Update!)

This group of bosses are still immersed in the crazy news that the water heater you bought can save 50% of electricity.

When Lin Yi suddenly called their names, several people came to their senses in confusion and looked at Lin Yi with puzzled expressions.

After reading for a while, his brain finally recovered from the previous news. He didn't pay attention to what Lin Yi said, but just stood there and nodded:

"Good good."

"Whatever Mr. Lin says is what it is."

Lin Yi rolled his eyes and turned to look at Li Xun again. Li Xun decisively raised his right thumb:

"Don't worry, Mr. Lin, I guarantee everything will be arranged properly."

After saying that, he turned and left to arrange lunch, while Lin Yi and others waited there and continued to look at the remaining water heaters.

The test process for No. 7 and No. 8 was arranged by Han Rui to the other eight water heaters as soon as he turned around.

This time, he had more people timing him.

He also changed the testing method.

That is limited to one hour, and see how high the water heaters on both sides can heat the water at 2 degrees Celsius within one hour.

They were busy, and several bosses were staring at them.

Lin Yi stood by and stared at the bosses silently.

He was observing the expressions of these people.

The expressions on Zhou Hongjiang and the people behind him kept changing: confusion, bewilderment, more confusion, and more bewilderment.

Unlike him, the bosses standing next to him had expressions of excitement on their faces, the kind of excitement that was about to drive them crazy.

Lin Yi could understand why they had such expressions.

Zhou Hongjiang produces small items like MP3s. Even if Lin Yi asked him to adjust the layout, he still produced small items like speakers.

Power saving is not a very noticeable experience on these little gadgets.

What’s more important about these little things is performance and usability.

And the ones next to him are all large appliances.

Zhao Changjiang's Suzhou Changjiang Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. produces televisions. Its technology is average and its products are not very competitive.

Moreover, many parents forbid their children from watching TV. Besides affecting their studies, the biggest reason is that TV consumes too much electricity.

In order to persuade these people to buy TVs, some manufacturers even use advertising slogans that TVs do not consume any electricity at all when in standby mode.

Although it is unreasonable, some people believe it.

Li Yun is the boss of Tongcheng Chang'e Technology Co., Ltd., and the products they produce are washing machines.

Just an ordinary twin-tub washing machine.

This type of washing machine does not have any technical black holes, it just has a lot of stuff.

But if you pile up materials too much, the price will go up again.

If at this time, a washing machine with suitable materials and the ability to save nearly 50% of electricity comes out, it will definitely explode the market.

Throw all other manufacturers into the trash.

The market share gained through reputation for quality is the most solid in China.

Next to Zhao Changjiang is the biggest beneficiary of the energy saving of electrical appliances.

Yu Jixuan, CEO of Suzhou Arctic Ocean Technology Co., Ltd., and Wang Zimiao, CEO of Suzhou Antarctica Technology Co., Ltd.

Arctic Ocean Technology produces refrigerators and freezers.

Antarctica Technology produces air conditioners.

With the development of the times, ordinary people have also begun to pursue the quality of daily life. In the pursuit of quality, they will inevitably come across refrigerators and air conditioners.

However, there is a huge obstacle to using these two big brothers.

It still saves electricity.

Saving 50% of electricity, the history of these two major home appliance markets will be rewritten from now on.

After the excitement, Wang Zimiao, who looked elegant and graceful with gold-rimmed glasses, walked up to Lin Yi and knelt down without saying a word.

The knee hit the ground, making a crisp sound, which made Lin Yi very suspicious. He wondered if his knee was broken.

But Wang Zimiao, as if nothing had happened, kowtowed three times on the ground and raised his head:
"Boss Lin, I, Wang Zimiao, will never know Taishan. The two previous times I signed the cooperation agreement with you, I had selfish motives in my heart."

"I am a loser. Thank you for your unwavering support. From today on, Antarctica will follow your orders."

"Whatever you say is what it is."

After saying that, he kowtowed three times.

He moved very quickly, and it was not until he finished bowing that Li Yun and others beside him reacted. They also wanted to slide down to their knees quickly, but they still couldn't wipe off the little bit of face on their faces.

Just as they were thinking about how to cover up this embarrassment, Li Xun came back:

"Boss Lin, the food has been ordered and will be delivered in about half an hour."

"Should we eat in the living room or here?"

"Let's go here." Lin Yi pointed to the ground and said to the workers in the distance:
"We're about to see a great product come out, and going out to eat at this point is a bit of a waste of time."

"Follow Mr. Lin's arrangements." Li Xun walked to the side with the phone to arrange for someone to deliver the meal.

When no one else was paying attention, Wang Zimiao took the opportunity to get up from the ground and followed Lin Yi closely, treating himself as a tail.

You can't save face by sliding on your knees, but you can save face by being the tail.

Li Yun and his companions quickly stepped forward and followed Lin Yi closely, imitating Wang Zimiao's behavior, making them look like they were playing the game of "Eagle Catches Chicken".

More than half an hour later, the meal was delivered and the results of the second round of testing came out.

After an hour, the temperature of the water released from the original water heaters of the Haixing Home Appliance Factory was fixed at 33 degrees.

Compared to the calculated temperature, it is two degrees less.

In other words, the heating efficiency of the original water heaters produced by Haixing Home Appliance Factory is not as high as they claim.

The hot water temperature released by the new water heaters has stabilized at 69.2 degrees.

The electricity consumed by these eight water heaters remained stable at around 2.53.

One water heater may be fake, and two water heaters may also be fake.

But if there are 10 water heaters, all with the same parameters and the same efficiency, then there is no fraud.

By the time I saw the test results, the food was already cold.

But the group of people in the testing workshop ate the cold food with great relish.

Testers and workers knew that if such a new type of water heater appeared on the market, it would definitely be a hot seller.

As workers, when their products sell well, they can also get higher and more generous wages.

Li Xun and others knew that their chance to rise to prominence had come.

As for Lin Yi, the hot sales of these products have brought him one step closer to his future plans.

After dinner, the production line in the production workshop was started again. This time, Han Rui planned to produce all the remaining 100 sets of parts.

Then record a complete set of test processes to pass the 3C certification of the modified model.

Lin Yi took Li Xun and the others to a secluded spot. He didn't rush to talk, but instead lit a cigarette. After finishing the cigarette, he turned around and looked at them:
"Tell me what you think."

No one opened their mouths, and no one spoke.

Because they couldn't guess what Lin Yi wanted to say or do.

After a while, Lin Yi put out his cigarette, turned around and looked at everyone and said, "Today, the stone hanging in your hearts has fallen to the ground. I am also ready to have a frank talk with you."

"what's the topic?"

"Let's just talk about my mission. Want to listen?"

This sentence instantly perked up the group of people.

Judging from the scale of Lin Yi’s factory and his attitude towards speaking and doing things, everyone speculated that there was a big boss behind him.

He is a high-ranking boss, but Lin Yi's actual work process does not show any signs of a boss behind him.

Which boss needs to be so slow in doing things?
Isn’t it just a matter of buying land and projects to make a fortune?

Why drag it out? Isn't it just to test the waters?

Now that Lin Yi brought it up on his own initiative, hasn’t the opportunity come?

Lin Yi's explanation reached their ears along with the rhythmic sound of fingers tapping on the table:

"In 2007, the government started a pilot program in northern China to bring home appliances to the countryside."

"In 2008, the financial crisis broke out. In order to stimulate domestic demand and strengthen the internal circulation, the government expanded the pilot program of sending home appliances to the countryside."

"Last year, in 2009, the home appliance subsidy program achieved good results."

When talking about the good results, Lin Yi's tone was a little sarcastic, and even the fingers tapping on the table slowed down.

All his subtle movements were seen by the people around him.

They knew, here comes the point.

Sure enough, Lin Yi changed the subject and started cursing:
"But some idiots, using the excuse of "home appliances going to the countryside", are selling inferior goods as good ones."

"For example, there's a water heater that can't boil water, a high-energy particle water purifier, and an innovative television that doesn't require electricity or a signal, and of course, doesn't require watching TV."

"a lot of."

“You should have seen it too.”

The words stopped again. At this moment, Lin Yi's black eyes seemed to glow, like a searchlight, sweeping over the people at the dinner table bit by bit.

Except for Zhou Hongjiang, the rest of the people subconsciously lowered their heads when Lin Yi looked over.

"Heh..." With a contemptuous sneer, Lin Yi leaned back in his chair and continued to make up his own tasks:

“So, there is our mission.”

"The main task is to create some popular brands so that ordinary people can use new products of the new era."

"Instead of cheating them every day, squeezing out their value, and then sweeping them into the trash."

“That’s our mission.”

As he spoke, Lin Yi took two steps forward, and the CEOs opposite him were forced to retreat several steps.

When they regained their footing, Lin Yi spoke again:
"Today is January 13th. According to the plan I gave you, all production line modifications should be completed by January 15th."

"From January 15th to 20th, we need to complete product rollout, internal testing, and the 3C certification changes you filed."

"On the 20th, I will start advertising."

"From the 20th to the 25th, you need to complete your respective tasks according to the plan and set up the event site."

"Number 25, start working!"

"We are about to fight a tough battle, a tough battle in which good money drives out bad money. I don't want anyone to hold me back in this war."

"I also don't want anyone to become that bad coin for me."

"Understand?"

Lin Yi's voice was so oppressive that several people nodded repeatedly.

After receiving the response, Lin Yi smiled and waved his hand again:
"It's getting late today, and I still have work to arrange, so I'll go back first."

After saying that, he nodded at Li Xun again: "Mr. Li, set an example for them."

Leaving these words behind, Lin Yi walked towards the parking lot without looking back, drove his Santana, and disappeared in front of the gate of Haixing Home Appliance Factory.

As soon as he left, those CEOs who had been silent as a mouse jumped up:
"It's developed, it's developed."

“We are going to be prosperous.”

"With this energy-saving efficiency and heating efficiency, Mr. Li, your water heaters will soon dominate the Chinese market."

"Mr. Li, please make two for me first. I'll take them back to use. No, let's study them."

"Mr. Liu, you manufacture air conditioners. Can you help me get a few central air conditioners? We're brothers, not brothers. We're partners now. Can you help me get two? I'll go back and do some research."

"Mr. Wang, I remember you produce refrigerators..."

Amidst the roar of voices, Li Xun clapped his hands and interrupted their cheers with a smile:

"Everyone, don't get too excited yet. Mr. Lin just said that he doesn't want us to become that bad coin."

"If I were you, I would go back right now and sort out the supply chain from beginning to end according to the supplier list given by Mr. Lin, and complete the business before the deadline Mr. Lin specified."

"By the way, the 3C certification of the device can be applied for as a modification, and it will be completed in three to five days."

"Don't blame me for not reminding you."

"Opportunities like this only come once in a lifetime. Once you miss it, there will be no next time."

After leaving these few words, Li Xun walked into the production workshop without looking back.

As soon as he walked in, a young man in his 20s slowly came up to Li Xun and nodded his chin at the people outside the door, "Brother-in-law, what should we do next?"

Li Xun reached out and pressed the young man's shoulder, and said sternly:

"Remember, from now on, in this factory, Mr. Lin and Mr. Han have the final say."

"I said it only counts as half. As for the others, they don't understand the technology, so don't worry about them. You just need to be responsible for what Engineer Han gives you."

"This..." The brother-in-law was a little dissatisfied. This was his brother-in-law's factory.

I am considered a half-administrator, so why am I suddenly demoted now?

Seeing the dissatisfaction on his face, Li Xun whistled:
"I know what you are thinking, and I will tell you clearly now."

"Listen to everything I just said."

"Don't cause me any trouble, and don't give me any messy ideas."

“You just have to have an idea.”

"I'll take you in."

"You can pass this message on to everyone, to all our relatives, without changing it."

"You can also pass it on to your sister."

"But I believe that in the future, when faced with money, your sister will definitely choose money over you."

"Your father is also..."

After having a heart-to-heart talk with his brother-in-law, Li Xun patted his brother-in-law on the shoulder, gave him an encouraging look, turned around and walked towards the production line, rolled up his sleeves, and assembled the water heater himself.

His brother-in-law stood there in a daze, touched his hair, turned around and walked over to start screwing in the production line.

Outside the production workshop, Zhao Changjiang and others looked at the busy production line with different expressions on their faces. After watching through the door for a while, the group nodded to each other, turned around and left without looking back.

The opportunity came.

Then it's time to grab it and take off.
