Chapter 58: Pricing Strategies
In the next month, Jia Yapeng spent half of his time with the designers of these four-wheel drive vehicles, and Jia Yapeng combined with the various problems that occurred when he played four-wheel drive vehicles in his previous life, and carried out various cooperation and research and development with these workers.
For example, to find a material that is more suitable for switching, or to find out how many turns of the click winding is more suitable, the horsepower is more powerful, and even how thick the rubber of the tire is to ensure stable grip and so on.
And the battery
There is also lubricants
There are also guide wheels
……
Anyway, in a month, the original humble prototype car has become a perfect god of war, Mercedes on the track, more than twice as fast as at the beginning, but more stable.
Jia Yapeng estimated that if he took this car to participate in the competition, it would be difficult to say that he would win the national championship, but a champion in Xijiang Province would not be able to run.
"Okay, it's time for finalization!" Jia Yapeng nodded, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, it was not easy, it could finally be mass-produced.
"I ask you, how long will it take? Can our four-wheel drive vehicles be mass-produced? Jia Yapeng asked Lao Li on the side. This Lao Li is a talent in the machinery and rubber industry that Jia Yapeng recruited from his classmates before.
"About a year!" Lao Li hesitated for a while and said.
"So slow!" Jia Yapeng is a little unhappy, it's October 91, so wouldn't he have to wait until October 92.
"The main problem of mass production is that the production line is not ready-made, all the equipment needs to be customized, and the materials must be purchased. Lao Li said helplessly.
"Okay!" Jia Yapeng nodded, if you calculate the time, it seems that it is too late.
"By the end of March '92 at the latest!" Jia Yapeng patted Lao Li's shoulder and said, "Uncle Li, you are my elder, I won't say anything superfluous, at the end of March 92, four-wheel drive vehicles must start mass production." During this period, you have to give people to people, ask for money to give money, even if you smash millions of dollars, you must complete this goal! ”
"Uncle Li, and all the worker brothers, according to the 12-month calculation, how many months in advance you have reached mass production, I will give you a bonus for as many months!"
"Yes!" Sure enough, money is better than any saliva, and when Jia Yapeng said the standard of the bonus, everyone was full of enthusiasm, even this Uncle Li was no exception.
You must know that in this era when the average monthly salary is only 150 yuan, Jia Yapeng needs a salary of 5,000 yuan per month to hire this Uncle Li, and he can also get the same bonus at that time, which is tens of thousands of yuan in one breath!
This Uncle Li's eyes turned red instantly, and he looked like he couldn't eat people.
"Boss, don't worry, I've been living here for half a year, and I'm not going anywhere, even if I leave my life here!" Uncle Li said to Jia Yapeng!
"Haha, I don't want your old man's life, I'm still counting on your old man to make money for me!" Jia Yapeng laughed, and then said with fear of hitting Uncle Li's shoulder, "In addition, you don't have to live here, my Daqian industrial production base, there is already a plant construction completed, I deliberately divided half of it to everyone, in the future, all the equipment and workers will move there to work, and the future production line will also be installed there, so you don't have to crowd in this small place anymore!" ”
"I also prepared a factory director's office for you, Uncle Li!"
"Hooray!"
"Long live the boss!" Hearing Jia Yapeng say this, the workers who had long disliked this place for being too small cheered, and even Uncle Li smiled, he dreamed of meeting his office, then there was the head of the factory!
"Boss, rest assured, with the new site and equipment, we guarantee that we can produce the most perfect 4WD car, and ensure that every 4WD is as perfect as the one in your hand!" Uncle Li once again made a military order.
"No! Absolutely not! What Uncle Li never expected was that his military order had just been established, but he was rejected by Jia Yapeng.
I only heard Boss Jia say, "If you make the basic four-wheel drive vehicles as perfect as those in my hands, then what money will I make!" ”
"Clams?" Uncle Li was stunned.
"Uncle Li, remember that I plan to divide the four-wheel drive vehicles produced in the future into three different series, namely the basic series, the elite series, and the super battle series!"
"Among them, the basic series is made according to the template of the prototype you produced at the beginning, and you only need to adjust the stability of the four-wheel drive vehicle so that the four-wheel drive vehicle can run stably in the hands of children!"
"Then the elite series, mainly to improve the motor, just have a faster speed!"
"The last super battle series, just produce according to the perfect model in my hand!"
"Let's make four-wheel drive vehicles out of grade and price, of which the basic four-wheel drive production is the largest, and the price must be the lowest, I think the price is about 5 yuan a piece!"
"Elite series, priced at 100 yuan!"
"The final Super Battle series pricing...... Forget it, this one is not priced, and it is not even sold publicly, I want to talk about this again! ”
"In addition, we not only have to produce vehicles, all kinds of parts can also be produced, such as motors, according to horsepower, torque and the like, we can make more than a dozen different models and series, take some very distinguishable names, such as bronze motors, silver motors, gold motors, what thunderbolts, cheetahs, mad gods or something, anyway, if you want people to hear the same, that motor is awesome!"
"There are also tires, we can divide them into normal tires, sand tires, rain tires, snow tires and the like!"
"What else can we do with a metal skeleton, a super energy battery!"
"By the way, there's also a rechargeable battery, and the rechargeable battery thing has to be made. After all, now 4 No. 5 batteries will be sold for a dollar, and they will run out of power after a while, which makes many children unhappy! ”
"So we can make the kind of rechargeable battery that can be recharged repeatedly, and sell him for 20 yuan a piece, so I believe that there will be many children who are willing to pay for it!"
"By the way, in addition to rechargeable batteries, we can also make chargers, and the chargers will be sold for 50 yuan each...... Now this price is a bit exaggerated, but when it goes on the market next year, the price will swell a little, and there should be some rich people who will consume it! ”
"Also, the appearance design of the dozen or so four-wheel drive vehicles I gave you, you also have to arrange production as soon as possible, how can children only buy a four-wheel drive car? We have to give them more options, they can buy 4WD vehicles with different appearances, so how cool it is to put a dozen 4WDs together! Children have a face to show off! ”
"Anyway, it's all about using a basic site, at most it's just a shell, it's not troublesome at all, I estimate that at least the basic sales can be increased by more than two or three times!"
Jia Yapeng was talking endlessly, and Uncle Li was in a cold sweat when he heard it, and he suddenly found that what was standing in front of him was not a person, but a devil, a devil who specializes in sucking children's pocket money!!
