Chapter 1153

Elder martial brother Liu was stunned by Li Mu's 2.1-billion-yuan plan for material storage.

He was not only surprised that Li Muyi would transfer 2.1 billion yuan from the reserve fund pool as soon as he opened his mouth, but also worried about several aspects.

The first worry is that he is afraid that the current storage capacity is not enough;

2.1 billion if he buys electronic products or valuables, he may not be able to use a large storage volume, but the anti epidemic materials Li Mu wants to make are disinfectant, masks, alcohol, gloves or even a part of drugs.

If there is an epidemic situation of infectious diseases, the biggest demand on the market must be disinfectant. The retail price of common 84 disinfectant is about two or three yuan per bottle, 450 to 500 ml per bottle;

if it is purchased in large quantities, it is estimated that the price per liter is about three yuan, 3000 yuan can buy one cubic meter, and this does not count the actual volume of packaging The impact of one cubic meter of disinfectant, if combined with packaging how to also account for 1.3 or even 1.5 cubic meters of space.

Three thousand pieces of 1.5 cubic meters, 30 million can be 15000 cubic meters. If the height of a single product is 20 centimeters, ten layers of stacking is the load-bearing limit of the underlying goods. In this case, the storage area of 30 million goods needs about 7500 square meters;

if 300 million, it can be 75000 square meters;

600 million, it can be 150000 square meters;

What's more, the warehouse has not been automated yet, there is no stacking tool, and the labor cost of ten layer stacking is very high, and the operation is very difficult;

such a large purchase volume, which was originally thought to be very frightening, not to mention that the self-supporting business of Taobao has occupied most of the warehouse storage volume, so the storage margin of the whole Taobao logistics is not large, which will be estimated at 2 billion Before he spent half of the money, Taobao's storage exploded;

the second worry was that he was afraid that Li Mu would flash his back. If Li Mu was too pessimistic about the whole epidemic, he would hoard more than two billion materials in a pessimistic attitude. In case things were not as serious as he expected, what would be done with the two billion materials?

Although these materials are all consumable products, they are not fast-moving products, so the market has been weak for a long time. Under normal circumstances, the production and sales of the market are saturated or even the supply exceeds the demand. If we want to sell these two billion materials at that time, I'm afraid it will be very difficult. At that time, we will probably completely rot in our own warehouse, and these costs will be Taobao by then Carry it by yourself.

Senior brother Liu expressed his two-tier concerns. Li Mu said to him, "2.1 billion is only the initial plan, and it is likely to be added in the later stage. However, the storage problem is easy to handle. We immediately set up a team to find the available storage resources in the location of our seven major logistics bases, only to have them, and to take them at any cost."

At first, Taobao logistics established six logistics distribution and storage bases, namely Yanjing, Shanghai, Yangcheng, chuandu, Hanjiang and Liaoshen. Later, because of the extremely hot electronic product transactions in Shenzhen, it built another one in Shenzhen. These seven cities are important logistics hubs. Although Taobao logistics has not enough storage, there are many storage resources in the society, which are complete The urgent need can be solved through leasing;

later, Li Mu said: "as for the problem of capital risk, elder martial brother Liu, you should not put it in the first place for the time being. This time, we should put social responsibility in the first place. There are risks, but for Taobao, it is not a big risk. The worst result is that more than two billion materials are all in our hands, But the quality guarantee period of this part of materials will not be short. We have time to digest them slowly, and we can make up for some of the losses. We don't have to worry about the rest. Even if we really lose, we can't move our foundation. "

Elder martial brother Liu nodded softly and said, "I have no opinion at all about what you said. I just want to say if I can find a way to avoid risks as much as possible. If I can't find it, we should do it with risks on our shoulders. I agree with you!"

Li Mu smiled contentedly and said, "that's great! Then I'll start to talk about some of my specific ideas. Listen to me, Ziwei. If you have any questions, please stop me at any time. "

They nodded at the same time and said yes.

Li Mu immediately said, "first of all, we need to send a business team to communicate with all the regular disinfectant manufacturers in the country, so that they can increase their production capacity in the future, burst out all the production capacity, and produce enough disinfectant for us. However, we must be careful in the operation. In order to be an offshore company, we bought it at home After a lot of shells have been purchased, they will be purchased through these bottom shell companies in order to avoid too much attention from the target; "

elder martial brother Liu immediately said:" OK, I will arrange this matter. "

Li Mu added: "the specifications of disinfectant should be considered. In principle, most of them are small specifications, i.e. specifications of about 200ml. One is that they can separate more single products. The other is that most families can't use such high-intensity disinfection at all. In theory, 200ml is enough for a long time, and the less it is, the more rational it can be used 。”

"In addition to most small-scale packages, we also need a small part of large-scale packages, such as two liter packages and five liter packages, which can be used to solve the disinfection needs of schools, kindergartens and enterprises.""I think for most people, if 200 ml of disinfectant is used for 20 days, then 500 ml of disinfectant is estimated to be 20 days. The more it is, the less careful it is to control the dosage!"

Li Mu went on to say, "second, we need to purchase N95 respirators with breathing valve worldwide, preferably 3M ones. First, we need to understand the cost of purchasing such masks in a large amount. If it is less than RMB 5, then at least 200 million will be prepared."

Elder martial brother Liu is almost scared to be silly: "what does N95 mean? In addition, 200 million masks? Brother, the urban population of the whole country is almost this number! "

Li Mu said seriously: "masks have a long life. To a certain extent, the protection ability will decline. It is estimated that one mask will last ten days and eight days. If it is used frequently, the life expectancy will be shorter. Therefore, we must make a good reserve of masks. Our people just don't pay enough attention to them. Take this opportunity, we can use YY to publicize them Wave. "

Even elder martial brother Liu doesn't know what the N95 mask is. But by 2016, junior high school students may know what the N95 mask means. At that time, haze and PM2.5 had become the key words in people's lives. At that time, people knew the difference between professional level protective mask and ordinary disposable mask. Almost most people would be specialized in it Choose N95 mask to fight against haze.

At present, most people are afraid to stay in any disposable medical mask, which can insulate dust, bacteria and viruses. Even some medical staff don't realize that they need N95 or higher level protective masks. They are even using the solution of double-layer disposable masks, and even that kind of disposable masks is basically unprotected Thick cotton mask with protective ability.

In addition, every year, so many migrant workers suffer from pneumoconiosis because they don't wear masks. Some people who lose their labor force in their thirties and die in their forties are still there. In fact, they only need to wear a N95 level protective mask at work to avoid the risk of pneumoconiosis to a great extent, but no one has popularized them. They can only earn money every day Take low salary at the same time, the fatal threat of conservative industrial dust.

Li Mu now thinks that once SARS is released to the public, he must make the use and importance of protective masks popular science in the whole network, and even invest a sum of money to do offline popular science. He must make people pay attention to respiratory protection in daily, epidemic and special operations. So if 200 million masks can't be sold, Li Mu is willing to take them all To the workers in the mining, stone, wood and hazardous chemical processing industries, Taobao has such a large plate now, which can fully bear the social responsibility.

Elder martial brother Liu knew Li Mu's routine of doing things. Although he didn't understand it very well, he didn't oppose it, but said immediately, "I'll do this."

Li Mu said: "let me do this. 3M, Honeywell and other professional protective equipment manufacturers are all from the United States, and the sales volume in China is not high at present, so I will not rob the inventory in the Chinese market. In that way, it will squeeze the domestic supply. It's better to search overseas and purchase directly from the United States."

Said Li Mu: "we are familiar with America. There are many acquaintances. The key is that I'm a bit of an industrial and influential person in America. By the way, do you remember the Elon Musk who came to China to meet me?"

Elder martial brother Liu nodded, "remember, that wretched guy. He looks like a chicken thief."

Li Mu said with a smile: "on the surface, he looks like an Internet man. In his skin and flesh, he's a half sky high science visionary, but in fact, he's a bragging broker. This man has a wide range of social contacts and has a wider range of activities. He should be able to find him online. Besides, I need not only their masks, but also their more top-level protective equipment. If we can use YY's resources to replace them That would be wonderful! "

3M and Honeywell are basically the two most famous mask brands in the anti haze stage of the future. In that era, the mask industry ushered in the tuyere, everyone boasted that they are really able to prevent PM2.5 masks, but the real monitoring, most of the products on the market are false propaganda, many products are less than 3m in reliability, so they turn to appearance and gimmick With hard work, masks are more beautiful and functional. But in the final analysis, 3M is the world-class brand with the best protection and the most reliable quality.

At last, Li Mu arranged that "there may be temporary price hikes for some drugs. Let's go directly to the pharmaceutical companies and ask them to produce a batch of daily drugs such as Banlangen and disinfectant alcohol for a rainy day."

Elder martial brother Liu nodded and reminded, "but we don't have the qualification to sell drugs. We need to remind you of that."

Li Mu waved his hand: "Hey, it doesn't matter. We're not allowed to sell, but we didn't say we're not allowed to buy. We have to let go of this kind of business and do it in an unconventional way. Buy it first and hoard it. If we don't sell it in a critical time, it's better to send it to the Centers for Disease Control and prevention all over the country. It's better than being hoarded by those profiteers and starting from the ground and making a fortune!"
