Chapter 52 The Surprise
Chapter 52 Surprisingly Unexpected
Since being promoted to the director of the Sixth Branch Factory, Lu Wenhao has never thought of giving up the agricultural machinery market.
However, the biggest problem facing Lu Wenhao is that with the agricultural machinery technology reserves of Branch 6, there is, but slightly equal to none.
The agricultural machinery factory does not have core technology and relies entirely on incoming materials to process. It is better to say that it is an agricultural machinery factory than an agricultural machinery equipment factory.
In fact, Zhang Jianfeng's abandonment of the field that agricultural machinery factories are best at is not a mistake. To be said at least, it is a solution to the problem.
Since Lu Wenhao served as the director of the Sixth Branch Factory, he has been thinking about the way out and future of the agricultural machinery in the Sixth Branch Factory. After seeing the gasoline sprayer again, he suddenly realized.
In the future garden lawn mower, isn’t it just a small petrol engine with a set of blades?
Since the Sixth Branch Factory does not have technical reserves for agricultural machinery, it will develop micro and small agricultural machinery.
When Li Zhiqiang learned about Lu Wenhao's idea, he was a little puzzled: "Director Lu, we have just reached a cooperation with Gome Electrical Appliances. We can take advantage of Gome's sales platform to develop TVs, washing machines, and even air conditioners can..."
"You don't underestimate the agricultural machinery market!"
In his time, the output value of China's agricultural machinery market was one trillion yuan, which was insignificant to the total economic output of China, but until 2017, the output value of online literature was only nine billion yuan. The film industry spent half a century of hard work, and now the output value is about four or five hundred billion yuan. It is no exaggeration to say that in the face of the output value of trillion yuan in agricultural machinery, they are all younger brothers.
Even as of 2019, China's agricultural mechanization was still less than 70%, while developed countries generally have more than 90%.
There is still room for agricultural machinery to move forward, not to mention that there is not only China in the world, nor is there only developed countries.
China's applicable arable land is less than 7% of the world's world, but it feeds 22% of the world's population. Of course, Mr. Yuan Longping, the father of hybrid rice, made an indelible contribution.
However, the planting area of hybrid rice in China is only half of the rice area, while more than two-thirds of China's arable land is dryland.
The Huaxia people are the smartest nation in the world and have always created miracles one after another. In order to fill their stomachs, the Chinese people make as much use of arable fields as possible, such as Jiangnan Province, Minnan Province, Caiyun Province, Lingnan Province, Nanhu Province and other places. The terrain is rugged, mountainous and hilly, and the people have built many terraces.
However, large agricultural machinery cannot climb terraces to farm.
In this case, micro rotary tillers suitable for terraces, paddy fields and gardens, and micro seeders will be fully developed.
However, China's garden machinery has not developed. In fact, China's garden machinery has not started late. However, units that own gardens are keen on importing.
Most people believe that the original imported garden machinery must be good in all aspects, fuel-saving, environmentally friendly, and reliable in quality. The only advantage of domestic machinery is because of the price.
However, most gardens are units, not individuals. If you can build beautiful gardens, you won’t lose money. So in this case, Chinese garden machinery is crushed by imported garden machinery in all aspects.
Until almost ten years later, the economy developed rapidly, and young people in Jiangnan Province, southern Fujian Province, Caiyun Province, Lingnan Province, Nanhu Province and other places all went out to work, and the labor shortage was short, which led to small mountain agricultural machinery.
The machinery industry has engaged in a bloody price war.
As the saying goes, one trick can be eaten all over the world.
Huang Guangnian's first-hand Gome model has led to the vigorous development of retail industry in China and even the world. Even though Gome is not as good as before, it can start from 4,000 yuan to more than 70 billion yuan, Gome is still a giant in the retail industry.
Li Zhiqiang secretly smacked his tongue: "It turns out that the agricultural machinery market is so big!"
"Of course, people won't die without luxury goods, but without food, they will starve to death!"
Lu Wenhao said confidently: "For such a big cake, we must get a piece of the pie. Who in our factory has a certain research on agricultural machinery? Let's gather this group to form a seminar first and solve the technical problems first!"
The biggest difference between Lu Wenhao and Zhang Jianfeng is that he will not do it right away. He served as deputy commander-in-chief for more than two years at Huaguan Project No. 1 and has accumulated rich work experience.
It’s not that you can get the production line of micro-mechanicals immediately after the head is hot.
Instead, determine the design direction first.
Lu Wenhao has developed the agricultural machinery sector towards miniaturization.
First, the newly designed hand-held tractor rotating land cannot exceed one hundred kilograms. Even if the diesel engine is started without starting, a person must be able to push it easily. As for terraces, dry fields, including muddy sections, can be flexibly maneuvered.
Second, the operation needs to be simple. Considering the cultural level of Chinese farmers, they generally have low cultural levels of agricultural machinery. The more complicated things are, the less easy it is to accept them.
Third, the cost is low.
Nowadays, migrant workers have not yet entered the city, and farmers' income is mainly concentrated in grain income. Even in the Central Plains Province, where per capita arable land is relatively large, farmers' gross income per capita is about 600 to 700 yuan, and the remaining money is less than 500 yuan after paying public grain.
Currently, a four-wheel tractor with a 17-horsepower price ranges from 9,000 to 10,000 yuan. Even if farmers want to buy it, they are powerless.
Therefore, the factory price of this new hand-held tractor from the Sixth Branch Factory is 3,000 to 4,000 yuan, and the market price cannot exceed 5,000 yuan.
In fact, Lu Wenhao did not need the engineering and technical department to conduct a demonstration. For this hand-held tractor-type rotary tiller, Lu Wenhao could also draw detailed drawings with his eyes closed. His real purpose was to train technicians from the Sixth Branch.
Li Zhiqiang led the engineers and technicians from the Engineering and Technology Department of Branch 6, and after seven days of closed meeting, he finally came up with the design plan.
This hand-held tractor-type rotary tiller named Tiger Crawler uses a ten-horsepower single-cylinder diesel engine produced by Weixian Tractor Factory. This diesel engine weighs only 34 kilograms, which can fully meet the power needs of creepers.
The sales of the 10-horsepower diesel engine in Weixian are not good, and it is obvious that it feels like a small horse pulling a big cart when installed on the tractor. I heard that it has completely withdrawn from the market, and there are about four or five thousand units left in stock, which is being sold at a low price, with a factory price of 2,500 yuan, which is barely acceptable.
If the motivation problem is solved, the others will be easier to deal with.
This kind of hand-held tractor has two wheels and a diesel engine. As for the clutch, it is even simpler. It was invented by the agricultural machinery factory itself, with only two gears: forward gear and neutral gear. As for reversing, you can only rely on people to continue walking.
The Sixth Branch also has the technical accumulation of hand-held tractors, and the total weight is no more than 100 kilograms with the rotary tiller system.
Looking at this design plan, Lu Wenhao did not order the order immediately and order the production line immediately, but ordered twenty ten-horsepower diesel engines from the Weixian Tractor Factory for a price of 50,000 yuan.
We are preparing to manufacture twenty ivy creepers by hand production. On the one hand, we use the finished product for fatigue testing, and on the other hand, we promote it outward by the transportation and sales department.
After completing the design of the ivy, Lu Wenhao had not had time to inspect the upgrade results of the washing machine production line, but received a call from Huang Guangnian.
"Director Lu, the Gome Store will open tomorrow. As an important strategic partner of Gome Electrical Appliances, I hope Director Lu can take time out of his busy schedule!"
"I will definitely be there!"
It was not until this time that Lu Wenhao realized that National Day had arrived, and three months had passed since his rebirth.
Lu Wenhao decided to go back and take a good shower and clean up his image. As the first Gome store in Guangming City, it is also Gome's first step out of Yanjing City. Huang Guangnian will definitely do it very grandly.
When he returned to the Guangming Machinery Factory employee family compound from Branch 6, Lu Wenhao vaguely felt someone peeking behind his back, and he became alert.
As the saying goes, don’t do anything bad, don’t be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door.
Lu Wenhao could ask more than 50 employees from the Supply and Marketing Department to leave. If these employees who were persuaded to leave were not resentful, Lu Wenhao himself would not believe it.
It is a blessing but not a disaster, but a disaster cannot be avoided. Could it be that his mother Xu Rong is also worried and afraid?
Thinking of this, Lu Wenhao took the bicycle chain lock into his hand and shouted into the darkness: "Who!"
Under the street lights in front of the corridor, a short and fat reflection slowly walked towards Lu Wenhao.
Lu Wenhao placed the bicycle at the door and held the chain lock and tucked it in his sleeve.
This is Lu Wenhao's experience in fighting and fighting. Surprisingly, he defeated the enemy with one move!
