Chapter 402 Hot-selling Storage Box

Chapter 402 Hot-selling Storage Box
Naturally, there will be some movement in the cashing out of real estate. After all, the scale is too large. It involves some iconic properties in the town, or a lot of large tracts of land, and even some abandoned warehouses from the past.

Many people in the market still don't understand Yang Wendong's operation, and some even laugh at him for being stupid. It's obvious that housing prices will continue to rise, but Changxing Real Estate is actually doing the opposite.
Yang Wendong doesn't care about what's happening in the outside world. The more such "cleverness" he has, the better. Only in this way can land and housing prices continue to rise, and his cashing out plan will proceed more smoothly.

On June 6, Yang Wendong came to the Changxing Industrial Park in Kwun Tong. Wei Zetao personally took Yang Wendong to the opinion meeting room. As soon as he entered, Yang Wendong found several transparent plastic boxes on the conference table - they were exactly what he had seen in his previous life. Although they were a little different, they were basically the same.

"Mr. Yang, this is the storage box we recently developed." Wei Zetao introduced with a smile: "There are four threaded holes at the bottom of this plastic box, and users can decide whether to install wheels or not;

And on the top is a sealable snap box, you see, that’s it.”

After saying that, he began to demonstrate. The four buckles around the lid of the plastic box snapped shut one by one with a "click", and then Wei Zetao picked up the entire plastic box.

Yang Wendong also operated another one himself. After snapping it in a few times, he asked, "Have you done the waterproof test?"

Wei Zetao replied: "We have done it, but we did not put the box in water, but did a rain test to simulate normal rain. Rainwater cannot penetrate unless it is a super typhoon rainstorm.

In fact, it can be done a little better, but this will lead to a sharp increase in costs and even affect the life of the buckle, which is not worth the cost. "

"That's enough. After all, it's not a car. Why does it need to be so waterproof? It's enough to be able to block a little normal rain." Yang Wendong smiled and waved his hand to show that he didn't care.

After all, it is an everyday household item. It is enough for it to be slightly waterproof so that people know its function when storing clothes and daily necessities. After all, normal wooden boxes are not very waterproof.

Wei Zetao said with a smile: "That's no problem. Our storage boxes are lighter than wooden boxes, have lower costs, and can be mass-produced much faster."

"How many can be produced in a day now?" Yang Wendong asked again.

It is inevitable that plastic products will replace wooden products and even metal products in many aspects, especially in the household field. The packaging industry is a bit special and has relatively high strength requirements. Therefore, decades later, many factories still use wooden pallets or wooden boxes.

Wei Zetao said: "At present, I have only opened one mold, which can produce one in about 2 minutes, and about 650 per day;

But this mold is very simple, and we already have several suppliers who make molds. With just one word, they can make dozens of sets a week. By then, 10000 sets of storage boxes a day will definitely not be a problem.'

"Then there shouldn't be any problems with assembly, packaging and transportation, right?" Yang Wendong asked with a smile.

Wei Zetao replied: "Of course it is not a problem. We have the entire industry from top to bottom in our industrial park. If the sales volume is high enough in the future, it will not be a problem to produce 10 units a day."

"If we sell so much, we have to export it well." Yang Wendong said, "In that case, make a few more molds. You can determine the specific number based on the approximate demand.

Then we can use Carrefour’s channels to test the market first.”

The advantage of having the entire industrial chain and even the terminal sales channels in your own hands is that when you are ready to launch a product, you can complete the coverage from production to sales terminals in a very short time.

Of course, I only have this capability in Hong Kong at the moment. I can only say that I have some sales channels overseas, but I certainly can’t do it the same way as in Hong Kong, where I can get whatever I want. I still need to work hard on this in the future.
"Okay, I'll arrange it right away." Wei Zetao said with a smile: "With Mr. Yang's idea, I want to bring some back. I think it will definitely be a big hit in Hong Kong."

Yang Wendong's creativity has never failed within Changxing Industry, which is enough to make everyone admire him.

Yang Wendong nodded: "I think so too. Let's launch it as soon as possible. Once this product is successful, the demand for plastics will be even higher. The higher the terminal industry, the lower the cost of our initial investment will be."

For any commodity, the larger the production scale, the lower the cost, unless it is a luxury product that is sold in large quantities.
Wei Zetao said: "Okay, I will arrange full production as soon as possible, and I will also communicate with Mr. Liu at Carrefour."

"Okay, then I'll wait for your good news." Yang Wendong nodded and said.

The structure of the storage box itself is very simple. There were even similar boxes made of wood in ancient times, and there are also plastic products in modern times.

However, no one may have made a structure that is convenient for storage, transportation and handling, and is also waterproof. This may be because the existing wooden boxes are sufficient. Although it is a bit heavy, no one has thought of improving it, so it will not be improved.

Many things, only when they come out, people will realize how simple they are, but before they come out, people can never think of them, just like sticky notes.
Soon, a week later, a large number of storage boxes were produced in the Changxing Industrial Park in Kwun Tong, and then loaded onto trucks and sent to Carrefour supermarkets. Carrefour also specially cleared half of its shelves to store storage boxes of various sizes.

At 8 o'clock, the supermarket opened, and many people who came to buy vegetables early also found the

"What is this?" After seeing the plastic box, many people saw the price below: 4.9 yuan; the word "storage box" was also written next to the price.

"Is it for storing things?"

"I guess so."

At this time, a salesperson came over and introduced with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, this is our new product, called a storage box, which is used to store clothes."

Following the salesperson's introduction, many people showed satisfied expressions after listening.

The salesperson went on to introduce: "Our storage box is very light, much lighter than ordinary wooden boxes, and it is transparent, so you can see what's inside directly from the outside, unlike wooden boxes where you have to turn everything over to find it.

In addition, our box is also rainproof, as long as it is not extremely rainy, and it can be wiped clean after being exposed to the rain. It is not like wooden boxes that may be corroded. In addition, it will not be eaten by insects, ants or even mice. " "Good stuff." Many people said one after another.

The wooden boxes at home are very heavy and easily bitten by mice. If they are exposed to rain, they may also deform.
The salesperson added, "As long as it's not filled with heavy items, our plastic storage box is much better than a wooden box."

The only disadvantage of plastic is that it does not have enough load-bearing capacity. If you put heavy things in it, it will be crushed. Therefore, furniture, heavy boxes, etc. are mainly made of wood.

If you want to place lighter items, storage boxes are enough. Whether it is clothes, quilts, dishes and chopsticks, or even some small appliances, they can be easily stacked up in storage boxes.

Many customers also took action and picked up the storage boxes. After carefully observing them and discussing with each other, they all felt that they were quite good. This thing was indeed much more convenient than a wooden box.

The salesperson went on to say, "Dear customers, these days, the storage boxes are still on sale because they have just been launched. A plastic box of this size is only 4.9 yuan. It is very convenient to store things at home and can save a lot of space.

You see, they can be stacked up like this, which saves a lot of space."

Before she finished speaking, she had already stacked several storage boxes until they were much taller than a person. When the people next to her saw this, they immediately realized that by stacking them like this, they could make the most of the space in the house, and because the boxes were transparent, it was much more convenient to find and rummage through things.

Afterwards, everyone talked to each other again, and many people became interested in buying it, so they took one.

Suddenly, a man in a suit asked, "Miss, I'm going to buy three, how can I take them back?"

The salesperson quickly said, “You can do this, stack the three boxes together, put the lid on top, and I’ll find a body to secure it for you.

We can also install wheels under our storage boxes, but considering that many people don’t need them, we don’t sell them together. If you want to buy them, four wheels cost 2 yuan.”

The storage boxes were designed with bulk transportation in mind, so the boxes are square and conical and can be stacked like bowls.

"Wheels? Okay, give me one set." The man in the suit didn't care. It would be much more convenient if it had wheels.

In the following morning, many people passing by the storage box cabinet were also attracted by this transparent box, and their interest was immediately piqued as soon as the salesperson introduced it.

At noon, Yang Wendong also came to the Carrefour supermarket in Changxing Plaza downstairs. Liu Huayu and Wei Zetao hurried forward and said with a smile: "Mr. Yang, we sold 86 storage boxes this morning. This is just the result of my supermarket. It seems that Changxing Industrial will have another hit product."

"It's normal for the data to be high on the first day. People who have bought or seen the product later will not buy it again." Yang Wendong smiled and said, "Then it will be a normal market, and the sales volume will be relatively low."

Liu Huayu nodded and said, "Yes, but the houses of Hong Kong families are generally small, so they still need such storage boxes."

"Well, the main thing is exports." Yang Wendong looked at Wei Zetao again and said, "Old Wei, you should focus on exports from now on. The preferred places should also be cities like Hong Kong, where the per capita living area is not large, but the economic conditions are good."

Plastic products can replace wooden products to a certain extent, but there is a prerequisite, that is, they must be in places where the economy is still good.

In poorer areas, clothing cabinets are definitely made of wood, because local carpentry costs are low and wood is cheap. In developed areas, it is the opposite, and plastic products are more cost-effective.

Wei Zetao said: "I understand. My first export destination is Japan. Japan has also begun to learn some urbanization from the West in recent years, but their population density is much higher than that of Europe and the United States, resulting in many cities being very similar to our Hong Kong."

"Japan is indeed a good market." Yang Wendong smiled and said, "Is there any problem with production capacity? The market in Japan is dozens of times that of Hong Kong."

"It's okay, Mr. Yang, please rest assured." Wei Zetao said: "Changxing Industrial Park is now one of the largest plastic product production bases in Asia, and the speed of producing various plastic parts is extremely fast.

In particular, many suppliers have other idle equipment. As long as we send the mold to them, they can start production. The structure of the storage box itself is also very simple and easy to produce. Even if the production capacity is increased a hundred times, it will only take a few months, unless one day the equipment is insufficient. "

"Even if we don't have enough equipment, we still have Dongsheng." Yang Wendong nodded and said, "This is the advantage of the entire industry chain. Everything is in our own hands. Now we can launch a product very quickly."

The benefit of the entire industry chain is definitely not just saving money, but also high efficiency. When everyone cooperates well to execute a task, the speed will definitely be fast; vice versa, many external suppliers will not cooperate wholeheartedly.

Of course, this may also be because Changxing Industrial's creative product structure is relatively simple. If it is a complex home appliance, no matter how good the cooperation is, it cannot be completed in a short time, but it will definitely be much faster.

"Yes, now, all we have left is the production of the most advanced plastic raw materials." Wei Zetao nodded and said, "In about three months, the factory on Tsing Yi Island will be completed, and the equipment from Japan will also arrive. By then, we can try to produce it ourselves."

"Okay, if everything goes well, we can expand our scale later." Yang Wendong said with a smile: "Even if we can't reach the scale of Formosa Plastics, at least we don't need to rely entirely on Formosa Plastics, and we can also bring some new industries to Hong Kong."

In the future, Hong Kong will inevitably experience industrial hollowing out, which is almost an inevitable result of economic development. Capital naturally prefers financial real estate rather than uncontrollable factories.

Even if Yang Wendong can forcibly keep some industries in Hong Kong in the future, it will be meaningless if they are operating at a loss and it will be difficult to sustain it. Therefore, he needs to leave some industries that are truly suitable for Hong Kong.

The best industries are naturally the electronics industry, chips or liquid crystals, etc., but it is still early in the future and everything is uncontrollable. In this era, the oil industry is very suitable. In the past, Singapore's economy was no worse than Hong Kong's in the 21st century, and it could accommodate the oil industry.

Of course, even a time traveler cannot guarantee success, but at least there is no problem in giving it a try. Moreover, there are plastic production factories in Hong Kong, which will be of great direct help to his industry.
