197629.

This number, which is a little less than the monthly update task of a certain fisherman, is the final product sales volume of "One Mantis" on the day it was launched.

It was about 10% more than Gu Qunqing expected, which was within a normal range of error.

After all, business models are not predictors, and they can’t explain everything in many cases—otherwise, everyone can model everything if they have something to do and it’s over.

For example, a cockroach lover from Guangdong Province bought 2,000 pieces of the product in one go at 8 o'clock in the evening, which directly increased the sales of the product by a large margin.

Later, Xu Yun searched the other party's name on Tianyancha, and proofread the delivery address.

In the end, it turned out that the customer was the owner of a large food factory, who had apparently been harassed crazy by those cuties in Guangdong Province.

There are many similar situations, such as the group buying of some companies, which are special situations that cannot be predicted by the model.

all in all.

This is a very perfect product launch, and the effect has far exceeded everyone's expectations.

Of course.

So is the trouble that comes with it.

Early the next morning.

HKUST Headquarters, Life Medicine Building.

director's office.

Xu Yun, Gu Qunqing, Tian Liangwei, Zheng Zu, and Qian Guanglin, the factory director in charge of the production of "One Mantis" gathered here.

The status of the office at the reception was changed to Do Not Disturb.

At this time, except for Xu Yun, the other four people in the dean's office had a lit cigarette in their hands.

The whole room is filled with clouds and mist, full of the unique smell of tobacco, it looks like an Internet cafe dreaming back in 2010.

after awhile.

Gu Qunqing pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray, and said to everyone:

"Several, the sales volume of our products on the first day has exceeded 200,000, and the enthusiasm for consumption on the Internet is still high today, and the sales volume is at least 150,000 or more."

"According to our judgment, within a week, the total sales volume of our products may exceed 600,000, and this figure is our original expected total monthly sales volume."

"According to this trend, in about a week or so, the buying enthusiasm will drop to the lowest point."

"But at the same time, the feedback from the first batch of users just appeared, pulling up the downward trend at the low point."

"Thus, the sales volume is stabilized at about 40,000 per day, which is about 65% of JD.com and 35% of Taobao."

Hear this.

Everyone at the scene nodded almost at the same time, and they all looked very satisfied.

It broke 600,000 within a week, and since then, the entire platform has sold 40,000 copies a day.

This sales volume is more than three times what Xu Yun and the others expected, and it is also about five times that of the official flagship store of Baideshi.

Of course.

This is just a comparison between flagship stores, and the actual account must not be calculated like this.

After all, there is currently no one other than this one on the Internet platform, but there are many distributors of Baimishi on various platforms.

The pricing and sales volume of these distributors may be different, but at the source they all get the goods from the Bayer factory.

Therefore, the total sales volume of the platform is the number that Xu Yun and the others should compare horizontally.

In general.

The monthly sales volume of Bymites on both platforms is about 800,000 units, so the advantage of "one cockroach killer" is not particularly big - at least compared to the entire industry, the ceiling of cockroach killers is obviously not high enough. was really touched.

Then Gu Qunqing paused, and continued:

"It is gratifying that the product can reach the current sales volume, but the other problem is... Everyone, our production capacity is not enough."

"Director Qian, you are in charge of this, and I will let you introduce the specific situation."

Qian Guanglin nodded, took out a shift schedule from his body, and spread it out on the table:

"Several directors, at present, the regular production capacity of our factory is 10,000 per day, and it can produce 15,000 to 20,000 pieces under overtime conditions."

"For example, during the stock preparation period of the past week, our daily production capacity was 18,000."

"This is the production capacity achieved when the machine is running for 16 hours. Considering the cooling period of the equipment, it can be increased to 22 hours under special circumstances, and the production capacity is about 23,000."

"23,000"

Tian Liangwei repeated the number, and quickly shook his head:

"Not enough, our sales in the first week will reach about 600,000, and the average daily sales in the future will not be too low."

"The production capacity of more than 20,000 is obviously not enough. The maximum load is also difficult for workers and equipment to maintain for a long time. We must increase the production line."

Mentioned a long time ago.

Due to the circularization link in the production process, it is neither labor nor filling output that currently restricts the production capacity of a production line.

It is the finished product yield of the homogeneous system, or the straightforward point is the capacity of 10 liters.

Therefore, in order to expand production capacity right now, in addition to continuing to recruit workers, the most critical thing is to purchase production lines.

Gu Qunqing obviously understood this too, and saw him lightly 'tsk', and said solemnly:

"Dr. Xu and I also think that we need to expand the production line, but the problem is that the unit price of a FOERDA-T632 production line is 1.7 million Huaxia coins."

"Under full operation, the daily production capacity of a single production line is only seven to eight thousand, so if we want to ensure normal production, we need to introduce at least four more production lines."

"But now deducting the expenses of the factory building, the previous production line and production materials, the money in our account is not enough."

Xu Yun also nodded at the side, took out a financial expenditure statement from his body, and handed it to everyone:

"Aaron is right. We currently have limited funds in our account. It's okay to introduce a production line. Any more will be useless."

According to the agreement in the original contract.

The New Innovation Fund will inject 8 million after the company is established, and Tian Liangwei and Academician Pan will each inject 2 million on behalf of the School of Life Sciences and the School of Physics.

Xu Yun injected 1 million through the transfer agreement of entrepreneurial support, a total of 13 million.

The 13 million in cash arrived in the company's account the day after the contract was signed. The efficiency is still very high, and the full payment is still made.

Later, the factory contract cost more than 1.13 million yuan, and the three production lines went to 5.1 million yuan.

The raw materials for the production of recent products cost more than three million.

also.

During the product announcement period, the advertising expenses of all online platforms were also close to one million. Including some other expenses, the company currently only has about two million funds left on its books.

And on the other hand.

According to the platform model, the first batch of payments from Taobao and JD.com must be settled within seven days at the earliest—unless you are a virtual commodity, that can be shortened to three days.

But considering the current sales situation, we can't wait until seven days before starting to expand production capacity, right?

In this way.

An unsolvable Mobius ring appeared in front of Xu Yun and the others.

And just when Tian Liangwei and others were showing embarrassment.

Zheng Zu, who hadn't spoken much at the side, coughed lightly, and suddenly spoke:

"Dr. Xu, I may have a solution to the funding problem."

Xu Yun glanced at him in surprise, Zheng Zu's statement was indeed beyond his expectation:

"Why, Secretary-General Zheng, do you have a solution?"

Zheng Zu nodded slightly and explained:

"It may not be clear to you, but the New Venture Fund has always had a flexible fund, which is specially prepared for similar situations, and the total amount is about 20 million."

"It's just that the scheduling procedures for this fund are more troublesome. For example, you need to verify whether you plan to make a profit before going bankrupt, so you need to review and guarantee first."

"And this amount is not an interest-free loan. Its daily interest rate is about 2/10,000. That is, if you borrow 1 million funds, you will have to pay a handling fee of 200 yuan per day."

"The total price of the five FOERDA-T632 production lines is about 8.5 million. Based on the calculation of the payment after ten days, the interest will probably be about 170,000."

When Xu Yun and the others heard this, their eyes lit up.

Originally, Xu Yun and Gu Qunqing's idea was to ask Tian Liangwei to come forward and see if they could try to get a credit from the raw material supplier.

Try to even out the cost that should have been paid, and first make do with buying three production lines.

After all, Tian Liangwei's identity is there, and he has always had a relatively good personal relationship with the supplier of this biological material. It is too easy to extend the ten-day payment period if he asks.

Besides, he is also a shareholder of the company, and he is very clear about whether the company is really short of money or planning to run away, so he will probably agree with Xu Yun's plan.

Unexpectedly, Zheng Zu had a big surprise before he told Tian Liangwei about it?

be honest.

The interest rate of 2/10,000 is neither high nor low, it can only be said to be a moderate interest rate.

But the key is that it can save an emergency, and it can also buy five production lines—even if Tian Liangwei came forward to pay on credit, the money that can be freed up is enough to buy three production lines.

Based on the current sales volume of a mantis, the interest rate of 17,000 in ten days is really not high.

Think here.

Xu Yun immediately made a decision in his heart.

He first glanced at Gu Qunqing and Tian Liangwei, confirmed each other's thoughts from the eyes, and then said to Zheng Zu:

"In that case, please trouble Secretary-General Zheng."

Zheng Zu smiled and waved his hands, his posture was very low:

"Hey, it's just a trivial matter. Xinchuang is also a shareholder of the company, so it's up to us to do what we should."

"Besides, if it weren't for the sales of our products here, I wouldn't be able to adjust the money even if I don't want to. You need to be hardworking yourself."

"Well, I'm going to contact the accountant now. It's half past nine. Well, before five o'clock in the afternoon, I guarantee that the money will arrive in my account!"

With this guarantee from Zheng Zu, the remaining problems are very simple.

Afterwards, Xu Yun and the others briefly chatted about the direction of the company, and then chose to adjourn the meeting.

As a result, I left the office for a while.

The cell phone in Xu Yun's pocket suddenly rang.

He took it out and saw that it was Qiu Sheng who came.

Xu Yun saw that he hurried to a secluded corner and pressed the call button:

"Hello, old Qiu?"

The voice just fell.

Qiu Sheng began to howl in that loud voice, as if his tone was about to be transmitted along the signal:

"Old Xu, good news, we have discovered the amplification conditions for a new type of microorganism!"

Xu Yun was taken aback for a moment, and then he was overjoyed.

There are many biological amplification conditions and techniques, but right now what Qiu Sheng is talking about is clearly referring to the substrate of the culture medium.

Think here.

Xu Yun quickly glanced around, found no one around, and turned down the volume of the phone by two bars:

"Oh? What conditions?"

"The culture medium is ground from donkey hair and bean dregs, no, to be precise, it is the culture medium ground from local donkey hair!"

Xu Yun:

"?????"

must be at the same time.

two kilometers away.

The back kitchen of Dongyuan Canteen.

The donkey brother who just finished his work is lying in the shed, ready to chat with the two spouses given to him by the cafeteria about the penetration potential barrier of quantum tunneling and the whiplash decay of the transition energy level.

As a result, just as he was about to stack up the potential barriers, brother donkey was suddenly startled.

Do not know why.

He suddenly thought of a day long ago.

An evil young man greeted the murderous servant, dragged himself off the body of another donkey girl, collected his own non-Newtonian fluid, and put it on a certain plate to watch

Think here.

Brother Donkey couldn't help but sighed slightly.
