Chapter 127: Marketing
Trapp didn't go to the celebration, he was the CTO of Zeliconia and had the power to refuse such a boring ceremony. ο½ο½
The Chinese side does not necessarily mean to invite him, anyway, foreigners look similar, a few people sit on the rostrum, just explain the importance of the celebration, as for the chief technology officer, it is very troublesome to explain, and it is even more troublesome to explain clearly.
Trapp stayed in the workshop, carefully looked at the connection and working status of various instruments and machinery, sat down where Governor Liang had been sitting before, and began to carefully inspect the coenzyme Q10 crystals in the three trays.
Yang Rui came back after a turn, and saw Trapp playing with crystals like playing with antiques, and couldn't help laughing: "The quality inspection room has the instrument you want, do you want to take it over there to see?"
"I'm not doubting the quality of the product, if it was, I would have brought it up. Trapp smiled and said, "Before the product is sold, the sales company will do strict inspections, and I am just observing the crystallization." β
"The last time you did a repetition of the real yΓ n, didn't you watch it?"
"That time was not a normal industrial product. Trapp put on gloves, grabbed a handful of crystals from the tray, and let them leak through the cracks of his hands, and said with a focused expression: "The last time it was still semi-solid yΓ n chamber type, some crystals are larger than what we see now, but the uniformity is very poor, the largest crystals are 10 times larger than the smallest crystals, and there are quite a few large crystals and small crystals. As you will recall, I did a careful examination in the real yΓ n room. β
"Yes. Yang Rui nodded admiringly, he did the repetition for two days, and he felt a sore back, Trapp checked it for two or three days just for an examination, and his butt seemed to be nailed to a chair, and the professional Cheng dΓΉ was extraordinary.
Trapp laughed, with a very British emphasis, and said: "Although there is no time to weigh all the crystals, but a simple analysis shows that the size of the crystals at the time of repeated tests conforms to the normal distribution, and the variance is large, and after the factory, the crystallization distribution should still conform to the normal distribution, the variance is small, and it is much smaller......
He looked at Yang Rui and said, "This is a great achievement, which shows that the quality control is very good." β
"Thank you. β
"This aroused my curiosity, when you introduced it to the Chinese researchers, did you say that the crystals are underdeveloped? I want to know, what is the state of well-developed crystals, and can it maintain the current uniform process?" Trapp said flatly, with a fire in his eyes.
This is the expression on the face of any researcher who sees a new technology.
Yang Rui smiled bitterly: "I thought that Shen Pinghui would ask me this question first, well, Shen Pinghui is the researcher who did the commentary earlier." β
"He's already a technocrat and can't be considered a pure researcher. Trapp said with a well-informed expression: "For the technologist, the answer you gave has exceeded his expectations, and he doesn't need anything better." β
When he first saw these crystals, he was still very interested. β
"He's probably more interested in politics. Trapp said in surprise. British academics were also always embroiled in power and academic struggles, and honorary titles were often conferred on politicians or bureaucrats in exchange for funding and funding, and some academics were either corrupted by money or bought by power. A professor who strives to become a school administrator will not necessarily fulfill his promises or dreams after climbing to a high position. There are also many greedy people who use research funding as a source of wealth.
Yang Rui smiled helplessly and said, "It is much more difficult to train a top biologist than to train a politician. β
"He might become a politician who climbs to the top of the ranks. Not to mention him, when will you see well-developed crystals?"
"In two or three days, we're going to adjust some equipment. β
"I still have three days left in China, so I will come back the day after tomorrow, and after that, I will go to Bei*Beijing, looking forward to your appearance. Trapp raised his hand, more like a curious middle school student than a tech officer at a big company.

Tian Shichang and others quickly adapted to the work of the pharmaceutical factory, and the visiting group also made them full of confidence.
After all, only the best factories in the province will be "reviewed" by provincial cadres.
The only thing that makes them a little unconfident is the size of the factory.
Under the tradition that big is beautiful, a factory with less than 30 people is indeed a bit unreasonable, which is more like the scale of a township enterprise than a state-owned enterprise.
Perhaps, joint ventures should be different from state-owned enterprises in one way or another?
The workers comforted themselves so much that it was close to the end of work when Yang Rui appeared in the workshop.
"Guys, after getting dressed, let's gather outside. Yang Rui yelled in the locker room, and went to wait outside.
A few minutes later, a neat queue appeared in front of Yang Rui.
"The discipline of our workers is really ......" Yang Rui sighed, he originally thought it would be a scene of a group of people surrounding him.
More than two dozen people looked at him quietly, and none of them spoke much.
Years of military education are by no means wasted.
"Don't be too strict, I'll say a few words casually. Yang Rui relaxed the atmosphere, and then asked: "Is anyone on duty?"
"He Haitao and Ning Min. One of the workers replied, and everyone still maintained a stern expression, as if they were in a meeting.
The WestJet plant is not the kind of factory that has to work three shifts, and production is continuous, usually starting in the morning and moving into the evening, except for a small amount of equipment that continues to run in preparation for the next day, and most of the other equipment is cleaned and disinfected. Of course, if the task is too tight, it is also possible to achieve three shifts, but in that case, the supply of raw materials will become a bottleneck.
Producing biological products on a smaller scale is more economical by tissue extraction, and the WestJet plant itself is designed with this in mind, not in pursuit of longer working hours.
Yang Rui counted the heads and said with a smile: "There are two people left, okay, I'll distribute today's bonus." β
As he spoke, he pulled out a stack of cash, tapped it twice on his hand, and counted it.
Every time he counts five or four, he asks people to pick them up, and it's all a new and new unity.
"Is it okay to send money directly?" Tian Shichang asked embarrassedly.
"I told Guan Shen, this is your bonus, it's just that I will send it. Yang Rui stuffed the money into Tian Shichang's hand and said: "You are in the joint venture factory, don't think too much, take the money back, don't save too much, buy some delicious food to make up for it, our workload is not small, especially to concentrate, we must ensure good health." Good days are ahead. β
As he spoke, he stuffed the money into his own hands, and said: "Tomorrow is still a visit day, there are no provincial high-ranking officials here, but they are all our peers, do a good job, don't let people look down on you." β
The crowd happily agreed.
Only the seven people who didn't get the money were gloomy.
Everyone else got the money, and the anger overflowed almost instantaneously when they were treated differently. However, there is a lesson from Shang Lei's past, anger is anger, but no one is stupid enough to stand up as a target.
At the end of the money-sharing ceremony, Yang Rui pointed to a few of them and chased: "If the training starts within the month, if you don't participate in the training, or if the training is not cleared, all of them will be cleared, and I will let Xilian send people over again." However, if the training is passed, you can apply for a transfer to the front line, so that the bonus will not be less, and you can go back and discuss with your family what you want to do. Let's disperse. β
The seven men looked at each other and went home without saying anything. This kind of thing can only be solved by looking for parents.
The second day was a wheel battle, with a large number of researchers from all over the country taking turns to enter the WestJet workshop for a tour. Due to the large number of people, the Hong Kong manager had to step in to rectify the odds and added a number of clothes, shoes, hats and masks.
Because the masks are not suitable for mixed use, they will no longer be taken back after use, which is regarded as a gift by many visiting guests, so many people are complaining: "I didn't expect the joint venture factory to be so stingy, so I gave a pair of masks? β
On the third day, most of the people who came to visit began to take advantage of the opportunity to travel and eat and drink at public expense, but there were still guests coming and going in the workshop.
In the afternoon, Trapp and a white man, Shi Shiran, arrived at the WestJet workshop.
This is Cooper from the marketing team in the Asia Pacific region, and he has some ideas for CoQ10 with huge particles and wants to check it out. Trapp didn't take it very seriously. He is a technical officer at the headquarters and has little to do with the marketing department in the Asia Pacific region.
After Yang Rui shook hands with him, he said with a smile: "We produce the raw materials of coenzyme Q10, and there are one or two layers of relationship with consumers, and the sales are also fully entrusted to the sales company." β
"I know, but I think that any kind of scarce commodity has marketing value, and I want to decide how to do it after seeing the finished product. Cooper's voice was a little hoarse, bearded, and quite imposing.
Yang Rui nodded indifferently, let them go in to change their clothes, and then wait in the workshop. When you meet someone, ask, "Do you want to see the finished products of the last few days, or do you want to see the new ones produced today?"
"Can you take a look at them all?" asked Cooper.
"Okay, wait a minute. Yang Rui thought secretly: You're quite polite.
After a while, a tray with a dozen small boxes the size of fists was placed in front of the two of them.
"Production batches are in left-to-right order. Yang Rui helped open the boxes one by one.
Trapp silently counted, smiled, and said, "The yield is more than a kilogram a day, isn't it?"
"Well, the production was bigger than expected. Yang Rui doesn't need to hide it from him, in a few days, if he wants, he can also see the answer from the company's report.
Trapp then asked, "What about yield?"
"That's a 5% increase. Yang Rui said uncertainly: "The yield is higher than that of the real yΓ n room conditions, which is considered normal, right?"
"It's normal for profits to increase. Trapp laughed.
Cooper stared at the small boxes one by one, until they were all opened, then let out an exclamation, picked up the coenzyme crystals in the last box, and said, "It's so beautiful, can you produce coenzyme Q10 of this size?"
The coenzyme crystals in his hand are the size of two rice grains, which is more than 20 times larger than common products in the world.
Yang Rui nodded proudly: "The workers are not very familiar with the instruments and equipment, but they can already do it." β
"We will definitely be able to sell it at a good price, but we can't sell such things in the name of APIs. Cooper's eyes were fixed on the crystals, as if they were diamonds.
