Chapter 798 You guys can take a ride
It can be said that this thing is a complete use of strengths and avoid weaknesses for them.
They are not as good as Shanghai Hekou Watch Factory. In fact, the core thing is one thing. The stability of the spring drive is not good. No one can do it well. If this thing is not done well, it will bring about a series of problems.
The travel time is inaccurate, the failure rate is high, and the life is not long...
Although the products of Haihekou Watch Factory were not very good at this time, the generals among the dwarfs were still much better than them.
Chief Engineer Gao's suggestion directly bypassed this problem.
What's even better is that, except for replacing the driving source, the other parts of this watch are basically the same as ordinary mechanical watches. Their technological accumulation in this area is not wasted at all, and it has the taste of a mechanical watch. Still there!
"Mr. Gao, is this...not troublesome?"
“It’s not troublesome, it’s not troublesome, and this kind of watch looks like a mechanical watch, but its travel time accuracy far exceeds that of traditional mechanical watches, and can reach the same level as the electronic watch mentioned earlier.”
For Gao Zhendong, this thing was really no trouble at all. It was sold in the supermarket in his previous life. But now the front-end technology is fully mature, which means that he can directly come up with a set of technologies.
"So accurate?"
"It's so accurate. Of course, this thing is not without flaws. Its lifespan is not as good as that of a mechanical watch." In the early days, quartz watches were limited by materials, and their lifespan was worse than that of mechanical watches.
However, the long life of mechanical watches is obtained by high maintenance costs. It is difficult to say which one is better and which one is worse.
"This..." This news made Mr. Long a little embarrassed.
Gao Zhendong smiled and said: "Don't worry, even if it's close, the lifespan is calculated in years, and the characteristics of quartz watches can be sold as fashionable consumer goods. We may not consider this direction, but foreign customers are very interested in this Value. Strictly speaking, quartz watches follow a different path from traditional mechanical watches. Accurate timekeeping, low cost, and fast replacement are the advantages of quartz watches. ”
When the comrades from the Ministry of Foreign Commerce heard Gao Zhendong's words, their eyes lit up.
At present, we are still considering issues at the level of product requirements of "cheap, high quality and durable". We have not considered at all the upgrading of fashion, trends, non-functional and non-quality issues.
But Gao Zhendong's words made them think of another possibility of doing business with foreigners.
"General Engineer Gao, please explain to me the concept of fashionable consumer goods you mentioned in detail?" Comrades from the Foreign Trade Department quickly came over and held on to it.
Gao Zhendong himself didn't know much about this aspect, but he still had the basic concepts. He sorted out the relevant contents in his head and explained them to the comrades in the Foreign Trade Department in detail.
Although Gao Zhendong himself knew little about it, what he said still greatly shocked the comrades in the Foreign Trade Department. Can business still be done this way? This is not just catching a sheep to harvest wool, this is rounding up a group of sheep to harvest wool.
"Well, that's interesting, Mr. Gao, thank you. Your words have pointed out a new way for our work."
It is a normal phenomenon to change products voluntarily, and it can be considered that consumers are willing to pay a certain price in order to gain emotional value. Having said that, planned obsolescence deliberately set up by manufacturers to force users to update their products is like giving birth to a child without a butthole.
Gao Zhendong refused to take it seriously. His focus was still on matters with the Beijing Watch Factory.
"Mr. Long, I suggest that you and we jointly set up a research team to develop this quartz watch. You will provide the mechanical part and we will provide the electric drive part. Each of us can use our strengths to develop a new product." Gao Zhendong responded smoothly. Just throw out a bait.
Mr. Long was jumping on the hook: "Okay! Okay! Mr. Gao, the matter is settled. I will report to the factory and the department when I get back and get this matter done as soon as possible."
From a purely functional perspective, there is no doubt that pure electronic watches are the king, but from a decorative perspective, mechanical watches have their unique advantages.
The quartz watch is something that does not rely on both ends and is stained at both ends. If it is not done well, it means that it has the shortcomings of both, and one rib is blocked at both ends. But if it is done well, it will be a road open to both ends. All benefited.
Mr. Long knew that both the factory and the department were extremely interested in this product, so he decided on the matter without waiting to go back to report and discuss it.
The nights are long and there are many dreams. There is no wall in the world that is airtight. He knew in his heart that if it were not for the geographical advantage, this matter might not necessarily fall on his own factory. Apart from anything else, if Haihekou Watch Factory and Songjiang Watch Factory knew about this matter, they would definitely be eyeing it and want to take a bite. .
He didn't believe it if he settled the matter first and then settled for safety. The factory and the ministry would still oppose this matter. After the matter was finalized, Gao Zhendong immediately put the matter aside. For him, this matter was just a matter of mentioning it. If he wanted to do it next, he would just mention it from the system, and then hand the information to Fang Yinghong and the others. After all, I won’t even look at it twice. This thing is just a pure product. I make it to make money for foreigners and at the same time provide more choices for people who want to use watches. That’s all. It’s not worth spending more energy. when.
He gave up, but the comrades from the Foreign Trade Department took it seriously. He was even more anxious than Mr. Long. He rushed forward to discuss the time with Mr. Long. His meaning was very clear. Please be quick about this matter. Please use your hands and feet quickly. Soon, I will have something to sell.
Unlike other comrades, the comrades of the Ministry of Foreign Commerce are very keenly aware of the business opportunities. No matter how small a sparrow is, it is still meat. No matter how much foreign exchange is available these days, it is not enough. That is why they are so eager. They just want to seize everything. possible, and try to expand our foreign trade plate as much as possible.
Seeing the anxious look of the comrades from the Ministry of Foreign Commerce, Gao Zhendong remembered a piece of news that had come from the ministry during this period. Although he did not need to handle it personally and was even strictly prohibited from appearing in person, he was still notified. After all, Gao's Gallic operating line is his achievement.
"Comrade, I have a suggestion. I wonder if you are interested?" Gao Zhendong smiled at the comrades from the Ministry of Foreign Commerce.
Isn't this nonsense? Who wouldn't be interested in your suggestion?
"Please tell me, Chief Engineer Gao."
Gao Zhendong said: "I received a message that our ministry is preparing to disclose a technology. For this matter, we have invited people from the Economic Assistance Association, including Lao Maozi, and some developing countries to come to us and receive our training. ”
The chief engineer of the 12th Machinery Department was stunned when he heard this: "Is there such a thing? Why didn't I know? The technical public meeting of DJS-59 has been held long ago."
Old Chen, who had been sitting firmly in Diaoyutai, could no longer sit still: "Boss, 'in our department', 'in our department', the 17th Machinery Department, not the 12th Machinery Department."
This old comrade, Sima Zhao's heart is so obvious, he is still trying to get Zhendong's idea, right? When did his "department" become your 12th Machine Department?
The latest chapter of this book
Take a look at the 16-9 book bar!
Only then did the chief engineer of the 12th Machinery Department react and smiled: "I remembered it wrong, I remembered it wrong."
This episode did not affect the comrades from the Ministry of Foreign Commerce: "General Engineer Gao, what do you mean?"
Gao Zhendong smiled and said: "What I mean is that you can take this opportunity to organize things that can be sold and put them on display for these foreign comrades and foreign friends who come to the meeting. Maybe you can make a few more businesses." Oh, hehe. Even if it’s too late this time, you can take care of this matter and invite me another time. I think it will be good for your work.”
As far as Gao Zhendong knows, the famous "Yangcheng Trade Fair" in the previous life was not a vegetarian and had a great reputation.
Hearing Gao Zhendong's words, the comrade from the Ministry of Foreign Commerce broke down. As long as this thing can be done, even if a single business is not done, it is still a great achievement. Who said that business must be concluded in person? If you have the opportunity to sell your products Just introducing it is already of great significance.
"Is this really true?"
"It's true. The invitation for this matter has been sent out. The specific time is still some time away. There are many friendly countries that are clearly coming. It's just that the people invited this time are all people with metallurgical technology. They may be the same as you. The job compatibility is not very good." Lao Chen introduced the situation on behalf of the department.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, as long as there are people! Director Chen, are you in charge of this matter?" This matter must have been done in a hurry, and it must be considered as a practice. Once you have experience, you can take this matter into a big deal. Now as long as there is such an opportunity to hitchhike, the Ministry of Foreign Commerce will be very happy. After all, this is a free opportunity.
Old Chen shook his head: "No, the Beijing Iron and Steel Plant is responsible. In this way, if you are interested, you may wish to contact our department to see what is appropriate."
"Okay! Okay! I'll report to the leader immediately when I get back and get this matter started. Chief Engineer Gao, thank you very much."
For a while, the comrades in the Ministry of Foreign Commerce even felt that it was a bit wasteful to place Comrade Gao Zhendong in the 17th Machinery Department? Look at this person’s brain, this way of thinking, this idea, he was born to do foreign business work.
Department 17: Are you finished? Do you still want to do something?
This small "back-ticket appraisal meeting" can be said to mean that everyone who comes has something to gain, and everyone has a bright future.
When Gao Zhendong saw them off, he stopped the comrades of the Defense Working Committee.
"Comrade, if the committee wants to distribute three-proof electronic watches to the entire army based on electronic watches, then please inform the comrades in charge of research, production, and implementation to come to me. I have something to say. they said. ”
Judging from the attitude of the National Defense Working Committee, electronic watches will definitely be distributed to the entire army, but what kind of watch is distributed? Gao Zhendong has something to say. What is the meaning of toys that cost a few or dozens of dollars?
