In order to create a chess game that will disrupt Yishilu and Haichang Glasses in the future, Gu Zhe naturally thought that if he wanted to open a contact lens online store in the future, he would become the first batch of Taobao store trialists next year.

Of course, it has appeared in 2002, and on the small-scale eBay, Gu Zhe will definitely not give up opening a store on it when he needs it.

Anyway, if anyone who lives, dies, rises and falls on platforms like Taobao and EBay in the future, it has nothing to do with him, so he just uses the platform.

However, Taobao did not appear in May 2003, and it is said that it has something to do with SARS. At the end of February and early March that year, many people within Alibaba were isolated due to the epidemic. They learned from the pain and decided to accelerate the layout of consumer e-commerce. Then they were created after two months. In fact, the website itself does not have much technical content.

Recalling this historical knowledge, Gu Zhe of course wanted to speed up the process for himself and get some insignificant benefits.

The first thing Gu Zhe thought of was to find a few coders, write some basic code for shopping website projects first, and then find a suitable opportunity to make a few times the premium—

Nowadays, eBay has done a bit of a problem. The technical content of online shopping websites is really not high. It’s just that you need to accumulate more physical work when grabbing time.

The key to success in the end is operation rather than technology, so the code itself is really worthless.

When Gu Zhe thought of this, he immediately found Liu Kai, who had been studying and doing nothing recently, and discussed with him whether he could find a few seniors with good skills in the computer school. He paid for it and spent 10,000 yuan to write some basic code in just a few months.

Liu Kai had written scripts for Gu Zhe to crawl email address during the summer vacation and also an automatic posting machine for sending emails. Later, it became idle and Gu Zhe had no new plans to find him to cooperate with.

Seeing that the other old classmates were following Brother Gu, and they could make some money and learn some skills, Liu Kai was still very anxious. This time, Gu Che finally came to him again. After evaluating, he said that he might not be able to handle it himself, but if he adds a little, he can find some seniors who are good at website development in the senior year's job-seeking season, and he can still make achievements.

Gu Zhe immediately said that he could give a budget of 8,000 yuan first, and he would be considered as hiring someone to take on private work. If there are other situations in the future, he could calculate it separately.

Gu Zhe didn't expect to write a complete website directly, but when Alibaba wants to start e-commerce in early March next year, it would be easy to find an excuse to sell these source codes for 100,000 or 80,000.

Although Ah Li's programmer can easily write these codes, they may help save ten days and half a month, and exchange money for progress, so the other party will not be stingy.

We can also get a line and get more e-commerce promotion resources in the future to help Gu Zhe better disrupt Yishilu and Haichang.

...

After doing all this, Gu Zhe’s layout before the winter vacation will be completely completed.

Finally, there are the days of the final exam. After the exam is tight, I will be waiting for the results.

Because career takes up more energy, and the basic knowledge learned in previous lives gradually enters the deep waters, Gu Zhe's absolute final exam score and class ranking have declined compared to mid-term.

Several courses have fallen to a level of only 70 points, and the test paper is not very difficult, and there are no off-topic questions. It depends entirely on the fast teaching progress and the teaching is taught in a flash. No one has time to dig carefully and review, which leads to no one who scores very high.

Even so, Gu Zhe's ranking has dropped from fifth in the class to eighth in the class - according to this trend, by the first semester of the senior year, Gu Zhe's list of papers will definitely fall outside the class's top ten.

Of course, considering that there are 60 people in a class, Gu Zhe can ensure that at least the first third is still stable.

After the sophomore year, the full general education is over and you can start to choose your courses and directions freely. Gu Zhe can choose more materials chemistry courses I have studied in his previous life and spend the least effort to make up credits.

So the first semester of senior year is probably the most difficult semester of the entire undergraduate period, so it will be easier to survive.

Fortunately, even though the score fell to eighth this time, Li Senran, Feng Tao and others had already questioned whether Gu Zhe could continue to receive the Qiu Chengtong scholarship next semester, and was finally slapped in the face by Gu Zhe's academic achievements, so no one jumped out to question this time.

Especially when everyone saw the two articles on the contact lens materials industry review of the first author of Gu Zhe in Journal of Donghai University (English A)", everyone was completely convinced, so why bother to humiliate themselves?

...

The words are divided into two ends.

Lu Youyou had a chat with Gu Zhe before Christmas Eve, and after returning to school, she also thought about Gu Zhe's suggestions every day. Finally, before the end of the month, she called her home many times, trying to convince her mother to accept the plan for technological transformation and upgrading:

"Mom, I recently asked many experts and professors from the School of Chemical Sciences in our school to chat in private and listened to a lot of professional opinions. I sent an email to the specific analysis content, please take a look.

I think among the technical upgrade routes my dad had inspected before he was hospitalized, it would be good to have polypropylene meltblown non-woven fabrics. In this way, there is no need to worry about Director Chen of Zhenyang Refining and Chemical to arrange for our DMT to be expanded and supplied in the future.

Dad hasn't always said that the kind of business that fights price wars and costs is really unreliable. Now we have Tongkun blocked us in front and Shenzhou catch up. So just jump out. It's enough to maintain the status quo of the original production capacity."

Lu Youyou told a kind lie, but she did not say that this opinion came from Gu Zhe, but only said that she had consulted many experts and professors to try to improve her credibility with her mother.

His mother Zhu Yingying can still control the company's daily life, but she really can't say that she has any strategic vision. She always feels that this matter is very important and should not make a rash decision. She insists that Lu Youyou wait for the final exam first and then make a long-term plan when the winter vacation comes back. By then, Lu Jinming should be officially discharged from the hospital.

Zhu Yingying also said: "No matter what, you come back and meet your Uncle Chen's child. I have seen the photos of that young man. Although his grades are not as good as you and his future is hard to say, he looks quite decent. People like us don't want to be more capable, and you'll live a happy life."

Zhu Yingying seemed to feel that she was very good for her daughter and did not ask her son-in-law to be very capable in the future. As long as she is a good match and handsome, she can make her daughter happy.

Of course, Lu Youyou was very disgusted with this issue. She secretly worried that her mother had long hair and short knowledge, and was too conservative and steady to make decisions. After thinking about it, she had to take the risk of making a call across the country and contact her father who was still hospitalized in Fusang.

She knew very well that at this time, only when her father made a decision can the situation be reversed.

However, she didn't know how to find more reasons to convince her father, so she had to take time to discuss it with Gu Zhe in a tactful way, and hinted that Gu Zhe teaches her some remarks.

Of course, Gu Zhe understood it and took the initiative to help Lu Youyou make some plans.

Finally, before New Year's Day, Lu Youyou mustered up the courage to call his father and said the matter back and forth.

After listening to the technical advantages and disadvantages of his daughter's analysis, Lu Jinming immediately told him that this plan seemed to be very feasible.

He has been in this industry for ten years. Although he cannot personally manage R&D work, he is absolutely versatile in technology. He has a good vision and can tell which technology has a future and no future.

Lu Jinming was lying on the hospital bed at that time and felt very relieved: "Youyou, you have grown up, but I didn't expect you to worry about this family to be so worried about this. I have raised this daughter.

However, why are you so anxious about time? You have to start introducing it now? It takes more than half a month to discuss it when I return to China? It is not urgent to place an order after the New Year. The smallest device requires hundreds of thousands per unit, and only 100 kilograms of meltblown cloth is sprayed every day. It is better to do a good job of calculating it."

The Lu family’s father and daughter’s exchanged this time is not easy to understand without any industry background.

Let me translate it in a little bit: In early 2003, meltblown cloth was considered an advanced industry in China, and it was incomparable to 2020. At that time, the amount used in China was very small, mainly relying on imports. Domestic civil protection mainly used cheaper and breathable gauze masks.

Later, the production capacity of meltblown fabrics in masks was guaranteed in 2020 because of the loss in 2003 that they learned from one's mistakes. The domestic meltblown fabric production capacity was only planned after the 2003 epidemic.

Because the machinery and equipment themselves have not been domestically produced, they have to buy imported from Fuso, so meltblown fabric machines are very expensive nowadays.

Manufacturing in China is a typical example of selling whatever is cheap and buying what is expensive. When Chinese people cannot produce one thing on their own, the prices in the international market are very high. After Chinese people enter the market, they can directly break the price.

Twenty years later, a large meltblown machine with a daily spray of 400 to 500 kilograms can be handled for 600,000 yuan (it is not possible when the rush is very powerful, and the price will be restored to normal after the production capacity is met).

Today, Fusang products can cost more than 100 kilograms per day, but they dare to charge 300,000 to 400,000 US dollars. If the unit production capacity is calculated, it will be twenty times more expensive than domestic products twenty years later.

Of course, the price of meltblown fabrics is several times more expensive than the normal period twenty years later, because this is a fabric with relatively high technical content.

At present, meltblown fabrics are about 30,000 yuan per ton, while the raw material polypropylene required for production is more than 4,000 yuan per ton. Including the cost of factory electricity costs and labor, the total production cost except equipment is 6,000 yuan per ton.

In other words, Lu Jinming bought a equipment worth 400,000 US dollars per unit, which costs 3 million yuan.

Spray one ton of cloth every week, and remove the material labor, the gross profit is 24,000. Spray for 120 weeks, which means at least two and a half years, before you can recover the investment in the machine itself. This does not count the financial cost and interest on the funds.

In 2002/03, when the foreign trade situation was very good, it was definitely considered a high-risk and heavy asset with slow returns. You can earn anything else in foreign trade.

Even if you buy a house and hold it in your hands for two and a half years, it will rise to the sky by 2005/06.

Lu Jinming had no future in selling meltblown fabrics. He mainly focused on "using meltblown machines to develop new fabrics of similar principles", so he had to be careful.

But Lu Youyou must have a solution until Gu Zhe, and it makes sense that he advised her to join the game as soon as possible. Gu Zhe has helped her so many times and will never harm her.

So Lu Youyou used some of the last words Gu Zhe taught her, playing emotional cards with her father:

"Dad, you'll have been delayed for more than twenty days. There's the New Year in the meantime. Everyone is busy with other things, and it's at least two months. Although the meltblown fabric is not very popular for non-woven fabrics, I heard from experts that it can also make high-adsorption masks, which are much better than gauze, and can also be used as other personal protective equipment.

There are some things that you have to believe in. I am very grateful to fate. This time I was asked to study environmental engineering. If I take the helm in the future, I must pay more attention to the working environment and health protection of my employees. I will never let the engineers in the chemistry laboratory suffer from liver disease due to work.

I just want to accumulate some virtue for you. Thank you for being discovered by doctors in time this time. Do something to give back to society. Is it good? At worst, meltblown fabrics are introduced first. If the sales are not good, we will first give chemical factory workers artificial protective equipment to improve the labor security of their peers. Is it good?"

Lu Youyou's last words finally touched Lu Jinming from the root.

His liver disease was discovered very early this time and he was hospitalized in time, which also had a great impact on his personality. Some people will see through a lot of things after a serious illness.

Moreover, his physical examination was the first money his daughter earned in her life. The physical examination fee he paid for him. He suddenly felt that some things were really fate.

"Okay, since it's your persistence, just accumulate some virtue. Isn't it just an investment of several million? I'll listen to you once. But if it's proven that it doesn't make much money in the end, you will never be willful next time."

Lu Jinming made the decision in person, and of course this matter was finalized. He has 75% of the equity in his company, and there is nothing to object to these daily investment and operation decisions.

Others also happened to be in Fusang, and immediately got a round of knowledge with those familiar suppliers. Finally, with a big stroke, they got a small discount, totaling RMB 5.5 million, and obtained two sets of equipment, with a total production capacity of 300 kilograms of meltblown fabric per day.

No matter how much he had, he had no spare money. He had just asked the bank for a loan of 30% and he had only paid 70% of his own funds. He had spent all the remaining money he had saved in the past two years.

There is no way to do business without using the company's net assets to mortgage loans. It is impossible to operate without debt.
