The Director Teng Pan Chang is talking about is Teng Zhongsu, the chairman of the Department of Chemistry, and a well-known professor in China. In the eyes of students, he is a representative of successful people.
But he is such an awesome person. He usually wears an old-fashioned Chinese tunic suit that has been washed a little white. He often queues up with students in the cafeteria to get food with a rice bowl, and the food he gets is no better than that of ordinary students. This means that his
The income is not very high, far less than that of leaders in some "lucrative" units.
College students of this era know much more about society than college students of later generations. They have heard about things like rank and income.
"Although our company is a little lower-level, its business is doing well, so it will be financially comfortable," Gao Fan explained.
"By the way, Gao Fan, I've been busy taking exams these days and I didn't bother to ask you what kind of business your labor service company does. What can you, a Peking University student, do there?" Gu Songtao asked.
At this time, the second duck had been sliced and served. Gao Fan greeted everyone to eat the duck wrapped in lotus leaf pancakes. At the same time, he introduced to everyone: "Our company was originally established to house unemployed young people in the factory.
, the main business is to do some chores in the factory, such as cleaning, doing some greening, and making some popsicles in the summer.
"The company has more than 200 people. As you can imagine, just by doing these businesses, they can't even earn wages, so they can only rely on subsidies from the factory.
"When I was in school, I went to the library to read some information and figured out a formula for a chemical cleaning agent. After I returned home, I did a few experiments in the factory's laboratory to verify it and found that it was feasible, so I started working on it.
We bought a set of equipment and let the service company specialize in producing chemical cleaning agents.”
"Is this thing very profitable?" Wu Zixian asked.
We are all students in the Department of Chemistry, and we still understand the concept of chemical cleaning agents, but we don’t know how big the market is for this thing. Gao Fan said that he figured out a formula himself, and everyone didn’t think it was strange.
The technology doesn't seem to be very complicated.
Gao Fan said: "The chemical cleaning agent I developed is mainly used to clean sanitary ware and dirt on buildings. For example, the toilets in our building always have some peculiar smell, which is actually some old dirt. If we use our kind
After cleaning it once with detergent, the odor will not be so strong.”
"Ha, you should bring a few bottles over. At worst, we can flush the toilet ourselves." Chen Chuanlin said with a smile.
Gao Fan patted his head and said: "I ignored it. When school starts next semester, I will send a few bottles back."
"I think you didn't ignore it, you did it on purpose. If you said you won't come back until next semester, doesn't that mean we have to do the job?" Hu Dongming revealed with a smile.
"This... unless it is sold nationwide, you won't be able to make much money, right?" He Xujie did not participate in their joke, but seriously calculated the accounts for Gao Fan.
Gao Fan nodded and said: "Lao He is transparent! I asked our provincial newspaper to help us publicize it. Now the cleaning agent is spread across the province, with sales of almost two to three hundred barrels a month, and a barrel costs 100 yuan.
, which is almost an income of 20,000 to 30,000 yuan.”
"You said that your labor service company has more than 200 people. If you have an income of 20,000 to 30,000 yuan a month, the gross profit margin is 50%, and the salary money is enough." Gu Songtao said.
"It's just barely enough to pay wages." Gao Fan said, and before anyone could say anything, he continued: "However, it's all an accident, because our cleaning agent is famous in the province, and there is a Japanese company
He came to us out of curiosity and said that he would help us promote the cleaning agent to the Japanese market."
"Is there such a thing?" Wang Yan's eyes widened. Among this group of people, he is the most sensitive to foreign countries, because he has been secretly memorizing TOEFL words and plans to apply to study abroad after graduation.
"You said your cleaning agent is used for cleaning toilets. Every household in Japan has toilets, so sales there will definitely be much stronger than in China," Pan Chang said.
"That's right." Gao Fan gave Pan Chang a thumbs up again. Otherwise, those who can get into Peking University are all top-notch people, and many things can be imagined by everyone without Gao Fan having to say much.
"Then what?" Wu Zixian asked eagerly.
Gao Fan said: "I signed an agreement with the Japanese company and asked them to sell it on a consignment basis in the Japanese market. Just a few days after I came back, the company placed an order for us, totaling 100,000 bottles."
"100,000 bottles!" He Xujie exclaimed in surprise, "So, how much does one bottle cost you?"
"Our FOB price is 1,500 yen per bottle, which is about 10 yuan." Gao Fan said.
"Then... isn't that 1 million yuan?" Pan Chang's mouth opened wide.
Everyone was silent, and they forgot to put the rolled lotus leaf cake into their mouths for a moment. One million yuan, everyone had only seen a figure of this magnitude in the newspaper.
Students from several counties vaguely remember that there seems to be no company in their county that can produce an output value of 1 million yuan a year. Companies that can achieve this kind of output value must be very big, right?
However, my dormitory classmate is actually the manager of such a company.
And judging from his statement, this 1 million order is not an order for the whole year, but just one of them. If there are subsequent orders in the future, doesn't it mean that the company managed by Gao Fan can have millions a year?
production value?
Managing a large enterprise with an annual output value of several million, treating guests to dinner and issuing invoices for reimbursement seems to be nothing.
"How about... let's add another duck?"
Seeing everyone's silence, Pan Chang timidly made a suggestion.
Such a suggestion was of course just a joke, but it woke everyone up from the shock. Gu Songtao took a hard bite of the lotus leaf roll in his hand and said while chewing the duck meat:
"Lao Liu, it seems that what I just said was right. You are really a capable person."
"Isn't that right? Lao Liu just said that he figured out this formula. Isn't this equivalent to the fact that these 1 million export earnings were all created by Lao Liu alone?" Hu Dongming said with emotion.
"Such amazing skills..." Wang Yan murmured, but it was difficult to say the rest.
Under the current system, no matter who invented the technology, the inventor is almost unable to gain income from the technology. One of Gao Fan's formulas earned the company an order of 1 million yuan, and the profit may be hundreds of thousands.
In everyone's mind, these profits obviously have nothing to do with Gao Fan.
If it were me, I would go directly to talk to the Japanese about this formula and exchange it for a Japanese scholarship. It shouldn’t be a problem, right?
