Along with the two machines were shipped to Taiping Town.
After a day of simple debugging, Su Mingzhe announced that the food processing plant was ready for formal production.
Lin's father also gathered up all his energy. With a wave of his hand, more than 20 relatives and friends who had signed employee contracts began to work at full strength.
Soon, the aroma of spicy slices and spicy strips began to ripple above the Lin family.
The next day, Su Mingzhe took the "student workers" recruited from nearby universities and started crazily promoting "spicy slices" and "spicy strips" at the gates of major primary and secondary schools in the city.
Food like ‘spicy slices’ and ‘spicy strips’ are really down-to-earth.
Without the middleman making a difference, the retail price in stores and supermarkets is only 20 cents per pack.
This is very conscientious.
Thanks to the vigorous push of student workers, in less than three days, the factory in Taiping Town showed a trend of shortage of supply.
Father Lin also didn't expect that the thing Su Mingzhe made would sell so well in the market.
In early December, Su Mingzhe saw that business was booming and quickly asked Lin's father to expand the production scale.
At the same time, Su Mingzhe also began to ask Lu Youguang to contact Lao Meng to re-customize 20 machines.
The scale suddenly increased tenfold.
The Lin family’s yard can no longer be installed.
Fortunately, Su Mingzhe had already told Father Lin that the homesteads applied for by other employees could be leased to the company in exchange for collective shares.
As more than 20 employees reported this to the township leaders, the leaders of Taiping Town followed everyone's wishes and approved a ten-acre land for the construction of the processing plant.
This application document can be approved quickly, thanks to several guarantees from Su Mingzhe.
First of all, these ten acres of land are used as construction land for the processing plant, but they still belong to collective ownership.
Su Mingzhe took out 30% of the shares of the processing plant, not to buy land, but to lease the land.
Township and town leaders need not worry about being held accountable and questioned by their superiors regarding land ownership issues.
Secondly, Su Mingzhe promised to recruit no less than 200 local workers for the processing plant he founded.
The processing plant eliminated 200 surplus laborers in one fell swoop, which was a great achievement for the township leaders.
A new factory building was built quickly, and two hundred workers were being trained urgently.
As Tianlong Food's business booms, newly recruited 'student worker' salespeople have signed formal employee contracts with the company.
According to the company's reward mechanism, for every package sold by a student worker, the commission is one penny and there is no basic salary.
After signing the employee contract, although the commission did not change, a basic salary of 80 yuan was added every month.
In the era when college students were still paid for their assignments, these student workers originally wanted to work part-time jobs to cover their living expenses.
It was also after seeing the promising prospects of spicy chips and spicy strips that these college students finally made up their minds and continued to work with Su Mingzhe to the end.
With these student workers trying their best to promote the city, the popularity of Suzhou City is also rapidly detonating the surrounding cities.
The sales plan formulated by Su Mingzhe and Lu Youguang is to build a name around the school and ignite the national market through the student group.
In order to protect the market from being imitated.
Su Mingzhe also registered various trademarks such as "spicy slices", "spicy strips" and "spicy silk".
The formulas of various spicy strips and spicy slices have also been patented.
In the blink of an eye, December passed in a hurry.
The Tianlong Food Processing Factory in Taiping Town has expanded to more than 200 workers, but the market demand is still in short supply.
In 1996, New Year's Day just passed.
Su Mingzhe made some statistics and found that the company's current production scale is 300,000 packages per day, which is already the limit of more than two hundred workers working in two shifts.
The orders the sales team receives every day require a daily supply of more than 500,000 packages.
In order to suppress the emergence of copycat competitors, Su Mingzhe set the profit of each pack of spicy strips very low. After excluding material costs, transportation costs, labor costs and other visible operating costs, the gross profit was only five cents.
Judging from the financial statement data, the 300,000 packs of spicy strips produced every day can earn a gross profit of more than 10,000 yuan.
From this, workers’ wages, salesperson’s commission, etc. must also be subtracted.
The actual net profit is probably one or two thousand yuan.
Apart from the finance department, only the big boss Su Mingzhe knows these financial details.
To outsiders, Tianlong Food looks like a brand new gold-swallowing beast, attracting the attention of countless people.
Countless people began to turn their attention to the Tianlong Processing Factory in Taiping Town.
Only Su Mingzhe understands that Tianlong Food is actually playing with fire and burning itself.
Labor costs are too high.
Therefore, after New Year's Day, Su Mingzhe contacted Lao Meng and asked him to contact the master of the machinery factory to help customize a more efficient assembly line production machine.
In Su Mingzhe's estimation, these new assembly line machines can increase production efficiency tenfold or even a hundredfold.
In late January, the machinery factory gave a new price breakdown for assembly line production machines.
According to the current scale of workers in the processing plant, the assembly line machinery and equipment re-developed by the machinery factory only requires six sets and eight hours of production efficiency, which can match the production efficiency of the current 22 sets of machines working two shifts.
The number of equipment is reduced to one-quarter and the time is reduced to one-third.
If we customize six sets of new assembly line equipment based on the current number of workers and work in three shifts, with more than 200 production workers, we can triple the production efficiency.
"Sure enough, technology is the primary productive force."
Su Mingzhe did not hesitate and directly placed a contract for six sets of equipment.
After receiving the order, Lao Meng urged the masters of the machinery factory to produce quickly.
By February, the factory completed the replacement of assembly line equipment, and production efficiency increased threefold.
However, workers' working hours have been reduced by one-third.
As the Chinese New Year is approaching, this kind of treatment can be considered good news.
February 1996 arrived.
Before the winter vacation, Su Mingzhe went back to school to study for a few days and took the final exam.
"Thanks to this era, news coverage is still very delayed."
Su Mingzhe founded Tianlong Food Company, but because he had always been hiding behind it, he was not the one who talked openly about whether it was the establishment of the company or the establishment of the factory.
Therefore, Tianlong Food was so lively that when he returned to school, few people knew about his glorious deeds.
The classmates in the school are still very curious about where Su Mingzhe went and what he did during the more than two months since he left.
Su Mingzhe just dealt with it casually.
These students are all energetic young people.
The final exam is coming soon, and I am still in the mood to pay attention to Su Mingzhe's situation in the past two months.
I don’t know if these guys will continue to be in this good mood after the final exam.
Soon, the final exam will be over.
Su Mingzhe felt for himself that it was definitely impossible to get perfect scores on all subjects, but perfect scores on five or six subjects could still be guaranteed.
When it comes to things like exams, some people are happy and some are sad.
Su Mingzhe doesn't care about his own grades, but he pays special attention to his girlfriend Li Ansheng's studies.
Before the holiday, Su Mingzhe made some connections and got Li Ansheng's results in advance.
I did pretty well in the exam, with a total score of 900 points in eight subjects and over 700 points in the exam.
(At this time, there were no biology classes in the first grade of high school, only eight subjects including language and mathematics, history and geography, chemistry, and physics)
This result is considered to be at the upper level.
After the winter vacation, Su Mingzhe was still busy with work during the day and stopped staying at Li Ansheng's house at night.
After all, the Spring Festival is coming soon, and it’s somewhat unreasonable to continue to stay at my girlfriend’s house.
I spent a lively and happy Spring Festival with my family.
After the Spring Festival, it's March.
Spicy strips and slices of various flavors have gradually become a new snack around Suzhou City as the taste spreads.
At this time, Lu Youguang personally took action and started negotiations with several large supermarkets, hoping to put spicy slices in their supermarkets.
At this time, the production scale of the production workshop has rapidly increased from the original three to four hundred thousand packages to more than two million packages.
This is still before the scale of production is fully liberalized.
The scale of production has increased.
The sales team has to work overtime again.
Merely allowing the sales team to radiate to the surrounding cities of Suzhou City is no longer able to meet the company's expansion pace.
But if the sales team wants to continue to expand, it seems that Su Mingzhe, the big boss, continues to hide and direct from behind, is unable to do anything.
The stall is so big that the total number of employees in the production department, sales team, and transportation team, plus finance and finance, has exceeded 500.
In the entire company, the only ones who can speak well are Lu Youguang, Su Mingzhe, and Lin Qiyue's father, Lin Tao.
(Lin Qiyue’s father has a name.)
Late March.
When Chen Xiaofang came home from get off work, she saw her daughter lying in Su Mingzhe's arms watching TV, and she couldn't help but cough slightly.
"Auntie is back."
Su Mingzhe pushed Li Ansheng awkwardly. This girl didn't know how to say hello when she saw her mother coming home.
Li Ansheng felt that the intimacy with her boyfriend was disturbed, so naturally she would not look down upon her mother.
However, Su Mingzhe signaled, but Li Ansheng rolled his eyes and said hello.
"Mom, you're back."
"Well, you don't have to go to class today?"
Chen Xiaofang looked at her watch. It was only 4:30 in the afternoon. Today was not the weekend either. Why did her daughter skip class again?
"Auntie, Ansheng has a stomachache, so I'll ask her to take a day off."
Su Mingzhe was embarrassed to say that this little girl Li Ansheng had finally grown up.
It was only when I was 28 years old that I became a cardamom girl and became a young girl.
This development is indeed a bit late.
Chen Xiaofang didn't react for a moment. When she heard that her daughter was feeling unwell, she quickly came over, reached out to touch her forehead, and said nervously: "Stomach hurts? Do you have a fever? Have you gone to the hospital?"
"Ahem, Mom, I'm fine, that aunt is here."
Li Ansheng still has a carefree temperament. Anyway, her aunt's scarves were bought for her by her boyfriend.
My biological mother is not an outsider, so I just said some things directly.
When Chen Xiaofang heard this, she smiled awkwardly.
It turns out that my daughter has grown up.
Chen Xiaofang felt that she needed to talk to her daughter about something, so she took her to the bedroom upstairs, leaving Su Mingzhe to continue watching TV alone.
