Chapter 4 Let’s go to the national laboratory!
Long-term military career has cultivated Gao Yuan's father's silent and resolute character.
He woke up at five o'clock in the morning, without disturbing anyone, dragged his body with limited mobility, got dressed, washed up, picked vegetable leaves in the kitchen, and prepared egg noodles for breakfast.
Gao Yuan's mother knew very well that Gao Xiangnan didn't want to be a burden to others. Since his condition stabilized, he has been trying to do something.
Seeing the old princess making breakfast, Gao Yuan's mother did not stop her. Instead, she took a basket of clothes and went to the balcony to open the washing machine.
"Gao Yuan didn't come back last night." Gao Xiangnan asked.
"Yeah, I don't know what Yuan Yuan has been busy with recently. He has food and accommodation in the factory." Already twenty-one years old, Gao Yuan's mother still likes to call him by his nickname.
She picked out a few pieces of clothing belonging to Gao Yuan in the basket and showed them to Gao Xiangnan, "Look, young people dress themselves up in the latest fashion and wear Korean style clothes."
"But look at our son, Wade, Wade, Wade, they are all Wade."
Gao Xiangnan frowned and asked in confusion: "What's wrong with Wade? He's quite good-looking."
Gao Yuan's mother rolled her eyes at her husband, "As expected of father and son, even the aesthetics are the same. No matter how good-looking they are, they are still in sportswear. Do you want your son to wear sports pants and a sports vest and go out on a date with other girls?"
this…
Gao Xiangnan hesitated. He had been busy with work and had not thought about such things.
The couple was chatting, but Gao Yuan ran home carrying a plastic bag.
"Dad, Mom."
"Egg noodles again? You guys eat noodles for breakfast all year round and you don't get tired of them?"
"I bought Xiao Long Bao. The price of pork has gone up like crazy recently, and the meat stuffed buns have gone up to two yuan. Hurry, eat them while they are hot. There are two packets of soy milk in the bag."
Hearing that the meat buns cost two yuan, Gao Yuan's mother frowned and muttered, talking about trivial things like prices. Gao Xiangnan looked carefully and found that his son was indeed dressed in sportswear.
As the saying goes, a man depends on his clothes and a horse's saddle. Since you have to manage a factory, you should still leave some good impressions on customers.
It's summer now, and it's cooler to wear sports pants. Gao Xiangnan thought, maybe the plateau will change in autumn and winter.
However, he did not know that in autumn and winter, there are also long-sleeved sportswear on the plateau...
"Aren't you going to eat?" Gao Xiangnan asked after sitting down.
"I've eaten outside." Gao Yuan replied.
Only then did Gao Xiangnan realize that his son's thick dark circles and bloodshot eyes were probably due to staying up late.
"Don't stay up late in the future and be careful about your hairline." Gao Xiangnan muttered.
Gao Yuan chuckled, touched his forehead and said to his father: "Dad, who used to supply the chemical fiber yarn used in the factory?"
Talking about things in the factory, Gao Xiangnan suddenly became interested, "Most of them are Chaoda, and occasionally Nanhua is used. What happened to the raw materials?"
Gao Yuan waved his hand hurriedly, "No, no, I recently got a quick-drying chemical fiber formula and want to find a factory to produce it."
"Oh, it's custom-made chemical fiber yarn." Gao Xiangnan said with a clear face: "Then let's go find Yuan Zheng from Chaoda. The phone number and everything are in the car, and there is a black leather notepad in the glove box. , which contains all the contact information of customers and suppliers.”
Gao Yuan nodded. In fact, he had already gotten his father's notepad. Today he just came to confirm with his father which supplier he could trust more.
The father and son talked about some things in the factory. That was it. Since there was no business in rushing to resume work, it was better to take advantage of this time to figure out the future development of the factory.
According to Gao Yuan, we should not do Dalu Currency in the future. Facts have already proven that although currency is large in volume, it is not profitable and is often deducted from customers.
He plans to register a trademark and patent, develop a new type of fabric, and promote it to downstream customers.
To put it simply, the factory needs to transform and create a brand.
This is a very important decision, and success or failure depends on it. Otherwise, it is better to sell the factory, so that at least you can have peace of mind.
Although he knew that there were problems with the past business model, Gao Xiangnan would still feel distressed if he really had to sell the factory, but one good thing about him was that he kept his word.
The doctor said that if you want to survive, you should take good rest and stop working too hard.
So he issued a military order to his family. From now on, he would hand over the factory to Gao Yuan, and he would never interfere regardless of success or failure.
"Don't sit at home after dinner. Go for a walk by the river and keep fit." Gao Yuan stood up and was about to leave. "I watched TV. Many old men and women have built up their muscles and become handsome. ."
Old man and old lady...
Gao Xiangnan felt uncomfortable. He had not yet adapted to his retirement life, and he did not feel very old.
"Give him the things." Gao Xiangnan looked at Gao Yuan's mother.
Mother nodded lightly and told Gao Yuan not to leave in a hurry. Then she returned to the bedroom and brought out a bank card from China Merchants Bank.
"What is this?" Gao Yuan asked in confusion as he took the bank card.
"This is all the money the family has after your dad pays the hospital bills." Mother explained.
Gao Yuan's heart skipped a beat. He heard very clearly that it was not the family's money, but all the money in the family.
"Take it first. If it's not enough, we'll find a way." Gao Xiangnan said lightly.
Hey~
Due to his father's taciturn character, Gao Yuan believed that there must be many stories behind this bank card, but he refused to tell them.
There is no savings at home. Could the money be collected from relatives? Or mortgaged the property?
After leaving home and getting into the broken Accord, Gao Yuan touched his bank card in his pocket and suddenly felt his eyes were a little sore. He had to take a few deep breaths to calm down.
There was a small cardboard box on the passenger seat. The box contained pieces of seemingly ordinary chemical fiber fabrics, not even colored, which was a bit crude.
The difference between laboratory products and large-scale industrial products is still very big.
After all, the equipment in the laboratory is not prepared for production and beauty, but for testing and research.
For example, could a high school chemistry lab be used to make soap?
Of course you can, but don't expect the soap from the laboratory to be as smooth, moisturizing and fragrant as Safeguard.
The batch of quick-drying fabrics in Gao Yuan's hands are typical laboratory products. They are not beautiful, but it is enough to send them for performance testing.
There is a national-level new textile materials laboratory in Shaoxing, which is quite authoritative and well-known in the industry.
Things in this world have to be trusted after all. If Gao Yuan issued an evaluation report himself and said that the performance of his quick-drying fabric is the best in the world, even a fool would not believe it.
Therefore, this evaluation fee cannot be saved in any case. Plateau needs the endorsement of a national laboratory to prove that its products have excellent performance before it can negotiate with customers and banks for loans.
In addition, Gao Yuan also needs to find a patent agency to apply for patents and trademarks.
