The technological empire begins with polymer materials

Xu Qingzhou asked the students to inventory the instruments and consumables in the laboratory and clean them up.

Starting tomorrow, this laboratory will be officially handed over to Dr. Xu's team. He will lead the students to conduct extended research on the performance of X fiber and strive to develop X2 fiber with more warmth before autumn.

After Xu Qingzhou made arrangements, he followed Gao Yuan and Cao Feiyu to the office. Gao Yuan took out sugar-free Coke from the refrigerator, handed it to them, and opened a can himself.

"I said, are you too naked?" Xu Qingzhou complained, "What you said just now clearly meant that you wanted to poach my students."

Gao Yuan smiled, "What do you mean by poaching your students? I obviously intend to poach you and your students together."

Phew~

Xu Qingzhou shouted wildly. Since Gao Yuan's attitude was so open, he had nothing to say anymore. The three of them discussed the division of labor. Cao Feiyu wanted to clarify the company's assets and liabilities as soon as possible, while Xu Qingzhou was in charge of scientific research.

As for Plateau, he is responsible for running the supply chain and opening up all links from raw materials to chemical fiber yarns, and then from chemical fiber yarns to textile fabrics.

"Are there any difficulties in the supply chain?" Cao Feiyu asked.

Gao Yuan shook his head, "It's not a big problem. China has five companies that rank among the top 50 chemical companies in the world, namely Sinopec, PetroChina, Sinochem, Hengli, and Wanhua, plus tens of thousands of private factories. Joint venture factories, wholly foreign-owned factories, basically any kind of chemical raw materials, you can find large and high-quality sources.”

Cao Feiyu muttered: "How come we only have five companies? I always thought that we were very powerful in the field of chemistry and could account for at least half of the world."

Without waiting for Gao Yuan to answer this question, Xu Qingzhou said: "The list is arranged according to sales. Although we have many factories, the value of our products is low. That is why the birth of X fiber is so important, because it is our current It is the only world-class fiber product that we have mastered.”

Gao Yuan added: "X fiber is a chemical fiber, and the most popular fiber in the world with the highest technology content is actually biological fiber. For example, when you extract a tooth, the doctor can use it to remove the sutures without removing them."

"In short, our country is not as strong as imagined in the chemical industry and fiber industry, but there is no problem in ensuring the supply of raw materials. The only problem is a special catalyst.

"Catalyst?" Xu Qingzhou and Cao Feiyu looked puzzled at the same time.

Gao Yuan said: "This catalyst is an indispensable part of the final reaction of X fiber, but it does not exist in any paper documents, let alone the patent specification."

After Gao Yuan's explanation, Xu Qingzhou and Cao Feiyu quickly understood that the catalyst was equivalent to the secret recipe of X fiber.

If you don't have this thing, it doesn't mean that others can't imitate it, but it means that if you can't imitate a product with the same performance, no matter how much money you spend or how you do it, it will eventually lag behind the original version in terms of performance.

The amount of catalyst used is very small, only 1.4 grams per ton of chemical fiber raw materials is added. As for the source, it is naturally that magical system.

With this secret catalyst, even if some rogue countries brazenly imitate products regardless of patent rights, they will only waste a lot of money and end up with a bunch of defective products.

It has to be said that the system's anti-counterfeiting protection methods are very vicious.

In the next few days, everyone began to work separately.

The Kunlun factory's upstream supplier is a local company called Chaoda Chemical Fiber. The boss, Yuan Zheng, is very familiar with Gao Yuan's father, and they have been working together for seven or eight years.

Gao Yuan found Yuan Zheng and came up with the X-fiber process and a special catalyst.

Yuan Zheng recruited two engineers from the factory to make cost and output estimates, and finally reported a price of 6,500 yuan per ton to Gaoyuan.

Gao Yuan thought for a while and said: "Uncle Yuan, the batch of goods I want is a melted worsted spinning model. Even if you use a domestic machine, it can produce at least three or four thousand meters of yarn per minute. The German melting machine will never produce six thousand meters. has a problem."

"In addition, there is no need for solvents, precipitants, or secondary recycling. The process can be said to be extremely simple. Do you think the price can be lowered?"

Yuan Zheng seemed very embarrassed, "The process is indeed not difficult, but the key is that the quantity cannot be determined."

"Let's do this. For the first batch of 20 tons, we will settle at 6,500. Assuming there is really sales, and you can place an order of at least 200 tons at a time, we will settle at 6,300."

Gao Yuan thought about it and felt that it was still relatively profitable according to the current market conditions.

Nowadays, DuPont 20D spandex yarn is sold for 25,000 yuan per ton. Got it!

Gao Yuan immediately signed a contract with Yuan Zheng. The efficiency of private enterprises in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai was astonishing. Just five days later, the first large delivery truck, carrying the first batch of ten tons of goods, drove into the warehouse of the Kunlun factory.

Everyone was very excited and ran to the warehouse to watch.

In fact, chemical fiber yarn is no different from rolls of cotton thread. The thread balls are taken to the textile machine and woven into fabrics, and then sold to downstream clothing companies to make the clothes we wear every day and spread on the bed. sheets etc.

"The next step is to weave chemical fiber silk into fabrics, but there are no workers in the factory now." Xu Qingzhou said with a frown.

Gao Yuan was quite dissatisfied with this. He said in an indifferent tone: "There is a shortage of everything in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, except for factories. Although our factory has stopped working, there are hundreds of factories around us that are running day and night."

"It's only ten tons. Believe it or not, even if we find a small factory, we can turn these chemical fiber yarns into fabrics within three days. As for the technology, we can choose plain weave, twill, or plaid. In just a few decades, China's efficiency has swept across the world's light industry."

Cao Feiyu and Xu Qingzhou nodded repeatedly. There are really hundreds of fabric companies in the industrial park where the Kunlun factory is located. Gao Yuan did not lie about this.

"The most important thing now is not production, but how to sell the goods." Gao Yuan touched his chin with his right hand and said: "As long as our X fiber can sell well, we can use all the idle productivity nearby."

"Dr. Xu, please prepare yourself and go north with me in two days."

Xu Qingzhou said: "It's no problem to travel on business, and it's not troublesome to ask for leave at the national laboratory, but why are we going north? What information do I need to prepare?"

Gao Yuan said: "Do you remember what I told you before that there are two invisible giants in China's fast fashion field?"

Xu Qingzhou said: "More than just remembering it, I am so impressed. Being able to go all the way to Europe and reach the hometowns of Zara and H.M. These two companies are so awesome!"

Gao Yuan smiled slightly, "As far as I know, the fighting in the field of fast fashion has been extremely fierce recently. The two old Chinese hegemons and the two established European overlords are fighting against each other. It's almost going to knock people's brains out."

"Perhaps this is an opportunity for us. If we can directly supply Shein-level companies, it will rapidly increase our popularity and increase the company's cash flow in a short period of time."

After hearing Gao Yuan's words, both Xu Qingzhou and Cao Feiyu's eyes lit up. Cao Feiyu said: "The relationship is good. With enough orders, we can accelerate the integration of the local supply chain and create an industrial cluster."

"I don't know about this mysterious company called Shein. Where is their headquarters?"

Gao Yuan turned his head, looked north, and said solemnly: "Nanjing."
