Chapter 777: Capacity issues for smart thermostats (Happy Labor Day!)

Licheng, a factory in Jinjiang.

"How is the production capacity of the factory now?"

Chen Hao looked at the busy factory in front of him. There were two people beside him, one was Deng Hui, and the other was the factory manager Ye Jianhua.

"Dong Chen, because the production line was first changed and the workers were unfamiliar, the current production capacity is only 100,000 pieces per day." Ye Jianhua replied respectfully.

As the director of this factory, Ye Jianhua is naturally capable.

But what he didn't expect was that the factory suddenly changed hands. Fortunately, the new owner was the flourishing Guanghua University.

Chen Hao frowned slightly and seemed unsatisfied. "I remember that the annual production capacity of our factory reached 62.8 million ready-to-wear garments, and the daily production of 100,000 pieces is a bit less."

"Yes..." Ye Jianhua wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, and promised, "Dong Chen, I promise to increase the daily production from 100,000 to 150,000 within a month!"

"150,000 is not enough."

Chen Hao glanced at Ye Jianhua, and said sternly: "It's the end of August, I'll give you 4 months to increase the daily production capacity to 200,000 pieces."

Ye Jianhua was dripping with sweat.

Don't look at the fact that 200,000 pieces are only 50,000 pieces more than 150,000 pieces. As the factory manager, the 150,000 pieces just guaranteed is basically the limit.

And what is the concept of a daily production capacity of 200,000 pieces?

That is 6 million smart thermostats in January (3 million each for clothes and pants).

The price of a set of smart thermostats is 3899 yuan, and the total value of 3 million sets of smart thermostats is 11.697 billion yuan!

Another data, Shenzhou International, with a current market value of 150 billion yuan, produced 440 million pieces of ready-to-wear clothing last year (2020), with a revenue of 23 billion yuan.

If the daily production capacity of 200,000 pieces of smart thermostatic clothing can be achieved, the value of this factory’s ready-to-wear garments in January is equivalent to half a year’s revenue of Shenzhou International!

Not to mention that Guanghua is not the only factory.

This time, Lushu Group acquired 4 factories from Anta, Jiumuwang and other companies, which were named L1 factory, L2 factory, L3 factory, and L4 factory in terms of scale.

However, the current daily production capacity of the four factories is not high, namely: 100,000 pieces (L1), 60,000 pieces (L2), 50,000 pieces (L3), and 50,000 pieces (L4).

Before Ye Jianhua spoke, Chen Hao already knew what the other party was going to say.

"If the production capacity is not enough, think of ways, such as expanding the plant area, adding production lines and workers."

"Money is not a problem, you can just find President Xu directly." Chen Hao said.

Guanghua is now holding a photon screen gold-absorbing artifact, and the cash flow is quite sufficient. In addition, there are more smart thermostats now, so he is not afraid of running out of money.

"Understood, Chen Dong!" Ye Jianhua suddenly became confident.

Of course, it is not easy to increase the daily production capacity to 200,000, but if it can be expanded, it will not be a problem.

And since the factory was taken over by Guanghua, a series of benefits have been introduced.

For example, increasing the basic wages and overtime pay of workers, increasing rest time, and improving the conditions of workers' dormitories and canteens.

Now the workers' sense of belonging to Guanghua is overwhelming, and they are asking the team leader if they are still recruiting people. They want to bring fellow villagers into the factory.

When Chen Hao was about to leave, a staff member trotted to Ye Jianhua's side and whispered a few words.

Afterwards, Ye Jianhua's face showed embarrassment, and he had to bite the bullet and said to Chen Hao: "Chen Dong, Ding, Ding is here, right at the door."

After Guanghua took over, the first step in the renovation of the factory building was to introduce the intelligent security system of Guanghua University (in fact, Dandan took over), Ding Shizhong couldn't get in even if he wanted to.

Seemingly afraid of Chen Hao's misunderstanding, Ye Jianhua hurriedly added another sentence.

"Chen Dong, I definitely didn't reveal your whereabouts!"

"Let him come in." Chen Hao didn't embarrass Ye Jianhua either. The other party didn't need to do this. Someone must have contacted Ding Shizhong when he first arrived at the factory.

After all, the L1 factory was owned by Anta in the past, so many workers always have a few eyeliners.

Ding Shizhong's reason for finding himself is also very simple. He wants to cooperate on shoes.

Considering the harsh environment of the border guards, Chen Hao felt that the smart thermostat might not be enough, so he decided to equip the border guards with shoes and gloves using adaptive temperature-changing materials.

Gloves are okay, the factory can solve it, but shoes are not so simple.

After careful consideration, considering the time limit, I finally contacted Ding Shizhong, and Anta helped solve the problem of shoes.

But this is also the case, so that Ding Shizhong has a new goal.

That is: smart thermostat shoes!

After all, for Anta, shoes are the main business, and the sportswear business can be affected, but not shoes.

Although Ding Shizhong's attitude was very low, Chen Hao still did not agree.

The emergence of smart thermostatic clothing can be said to have broken the existing rules of an industry, and there have been many relevant interest groups that have offended.

If you add smart thermostat shoes, you will have to face the counterattack of the three giants of Nike, Adidas, and Puma, which is not necessary for the time being.

Wait until the dominance of the clothing industry is stabilized before proceeding to the next step.

Don't take too big steps.



On the highway from Licheng to Ludao.

Chen Hao, who was sitting in the back row with his eyes closed, remembered something and opened his eyes.

"Deng Hui, how's the progress with Professor Chen Chong?"

Deng Hui, who was handling school affairs in the co-pilot, stopped what she was doing, then tilted her head back slightly and replied, "Professor Chen Chong's latest report was last night, saying that the upper limit has exceeded 600°C."

"That's not far from success." Chen Hao read softly.

Deng Hui couldn't help but ask, "By the way, principal, after Professor Chen Chong succeeds here, how much will we donate for the firefighting?"

"How many fire officers and soldiers are there in our country?" Chen Hao asked.

"Director Wei said there are ** 10,000 people." Director Wei is a cadre of the National Emergency Management Department and a government official responsible for connecting with Guanghua this time.

How many firefighters are there in the country?

The exact number has not been disclosed, after all, this is considered a military secret.

Of course, special matters are handled specially, so Chen Hao did not hide it.

More than 200,000 people are not a small number, so think carefully about how much to donate.

Don't think this total is scary, but in fact, the word firefighting contains two meanings: extinguishing is firefighting, and prevention is firefighting.

The total number of firefighters who actually rushed to the front line is estimated to be less than 200,000.

And it also needs to be divided into provinces. For example, the total number of firefighters in Lingnan Province is 5,900 (data in 2015), while the total number of full-time firefighters in Dongshan Province is as high as 13,000 (including contract workers).

There are more than 10,000 people in more provinces, and more than 1,000 people in less provinces.

After thinking for a while, Chen Hao also made a decision.

"When Professor Chen Chong has conquered it, we will immediately arrange for the factory to produce here, and donate 1,000 sets of smart thermostats for fire protection special editions to the fire brigade in various provinces across the country, totaling 34,000 sets."

Deng Hui was shocked: "Principal, will this be a bit too much?"

In addition to the 170 million sets donated to the border and coastal defense sentries (8,500 people, two sets for each person), this has exceeded 50,000 sets.

Moreover, the materials and technologies of these special versions are more complicated than ordinary civilian versions, and the cost alone is nearly 100 million yuan!

Chen Hao shook his head, "Not much, that's it."

If the whole army changes clothes there, at least 4 million sets of intelligent combat uniforms are required, and these 50,000 sets are regarded as a reward for the military procurement.

"Okay, principal." Chen Hao said so, and Deng Hui didn't say anything.

It's just that the admiration for the principal in my heart is a little richer.

the other side.

Ding Shizhong, the CEO of Anta Group, who was rejected by Chen Hao again, appeared in a laboratory.

Beside him is a well-known scientist in the industry.

"Professor Huang, how is it, can you crack it?"

ps: family, happy labor day!

There is one more chapter, which will be late.
