Chapter 164 The concerns of the boss of Hidi Lao
The company has not yet conducted a detailed calculation of the cost of the F1 electric motorcycle, but has a rough estimate.
The mass production cost is about 2000 yuan.
Among them, the cost of lead-acid batteries accounts for a considerable proportion.
The cost of a 60V20AH lead-acid battery is about 500 yuan.
The selling price on the market is around 800 yuan.
The main materials of lead-acid batteries include lead and acid. Lead, as the main plate material of the battery, accounts for more than 60% of the total cost of lead-acid batteries.
At present, the international lead price is stable at around 15,000 yuan per ton and will not fluctuate much in the next ten years.
The recycling of lead-acid batteries mainly recycles this kind of metallic lead, and the recycling price is not low.
The cost of an F1 electric motorcycle is just a preliminary estimate.
The cost of F1 is just a forecast. The calculation will be more accurate after the product is finalized, fixtures are produced, and actual mass production is carried out.
If production efficiency cannot be improved and there are many quality problems, production costs will definitely be very high.
In addition, Hao Qiang began to let technical personnel apply for patents for technical inventions, and the ownership of the patents naturally belongs to the company.
There are some technologies that are inconvenient to apply for and can be kept confidential, so we will not apply for them.
Applying for a patent also means making the data public, and the detailed content can be seen.
What surprised Hao Qiang was that the core technology of the technology in the technology store did not overlap with the technology patents in the real world.
Generally speaking, when applying for a patent, you must be familiar with the patent coverage principles.
For example, A applies for a patent with protected feature a;
If B also applies for a patent and the protected feature is a1 or an (changing the color of the BMW X3), then the application will definitely not be accepted.
However, B optimizes based on A, and the protected features are AB (BMW X3 has an extra pair of wings), and can apply for a patent.
Of course, you can apply for a patent, but you cannot use ab. You must obtain authorization from Party A.
Similarly, A cannot use ab without B's authorization.
Some companies are more disgusting. I can't use a, but I can develop inventions such as ab, abc, ad, etc., which adds an extra mountain to A's research and development path.
If the protected feature of B is b, which is quite different from a, then there is no patent coverage issue, and this is a new patent.
In the past, Hao Qiang had no idea about this patent knowledge.
He understood it after asking the professor about patent knowledge.
The development of the electric motorcycle was initially successful. After optimization, small-batch production began and tooling fixtures were manufactured and debugged.
The new factory is currently planning work areas and installing and debugging equipment, and the progress is rapid.
After the relocation, the leased factory will be sublet for the remaining period.
……
Sichuan Province, Jian City, Hidi Lao Company.
Starting from opening the first hot pot restaurant in his hometown Jianshi in 1994, and then opening the second hot pot city in the ancient capital Chang'an in 1999.
At present, the company has opened its third hot pot restaurant in Zhengcheng and has also opened a branch in the capital. The company owns a total of 9 hot pot restaurants.
In March this year, the company launched the second phase of the "Employee Reward Plan" and used the Zhengcheng Third Store as an employee reward store to allocate shares to outstanding employees.
Last August, the boss Jiang Yong went to Ouzhou for a half-month investigation and gained a lot.
Today, he returned to the company for a meeting, and all senior executives and decision-makers of the company participated in the meeting.
"Recently, I saw a news report that a competitor of ours has developed very well in Southern Yuecheng, and their operating model is somewhat similar to ours."
Some senior executives did not know which brand Mr. Jiang was talking about and did not dare to say more.
"Mr. Jiang, are you talking about the mundane world?" the company's vice president asked curiously, "Their boss is Hao Qiang, a sophomore who's just 20 years old.
Media reports say his business is very popular, with one store generating a monthly profit of one million yuan, and he has already opened several stores.
Jiang Yong was slightly relieved when the vice president mentioned this. If no one paid attention to the development of their peers, it meant that their vision was too narrow.
“Yes, Renjian Fireworks has developed very rapidly. It was only established last year, but it has already opened so many stores.
One day, we will be competing in the same city," Jiang Yong said solemnly. He has the idea of opening branches across the country, but due to various factors, he is not yet able to expand to the south.
At present, the company's main focus is on the capital, Zhengcheng and Chengdu.
What he didn't know was that Hao Qiang had been paying attention to and studying Hidilao, and regarded it as his biggest competitor.
"Mr. Jiang, the popularity of Renjian Yanhuo mainly depends on the popularity of their boss, who has a star effect.
After all, this is a hot pot restaurant that relies on Hao Qiang's personal fame to survive, and there is no need for us to imitate him.
Of course, we should learn from the good ones.”
"Well, whether it's Renjian Fireworks or other hot pot restaurants, we should humbly learn from their strengths.
Our core concept is still high-quality service, which is also the way to survive.
From our initial focus on the standardization of customer and employee management, to the current implementation of a master-apprentice and rotation system, combined with the standardization of performance appraisals, we have gradually explored a development path that suits us.
If we simply imitate others, we will lose our own unique characteristics and advantages and fail to forge our own path.”
At first, Jiang Yong was a little confused about how fast Renjian Yanhuo expanded. It took them 11 years to own 9 hot pot restaurants.
After in-depth research, he roughly understood the reason.
It often takes a long time for their own hot pot restaurants to go from opening to making stable profits.
The hot pot restaurant in my hometown has accumulated its current popularity after years of operation.
But Renjianyanhuo is different. It relies on Hao Qiang's personal fame, and the period from opening to popularity is greatly shortened.
This means that the payback periods of the two hotpot brands are completely different, with a significant gap.
Jiang Yong envied Renjian Huohuo's success, but he was a little confused about Hao Qiang.
Although the development momentum of the rudimentary industry is so rapid, Hao Qiang chose to get involved in other industries.
Could it be that Renjianyanhuo has no plans for full-scale expansion?
Jiang Yong was full of doubts. For him, it would be best not to have plans for national expansion.
The world is developing too fast, and he is a little worried.
Brand colleagues who study the mundane world offer more than just Hidilao.
Like Xiabuxiabu, which became popular with its "one person, one pot" business model, after studying the real world, it decided not to follow the trend and insisted on going its own way.
Every brand of hotpot has its own characteristics, and it is difficult for others to imitate it and become popular.
On the afternoon of April 15,
Qiu Xueya, the group's human resources director, called Hao Qiang and said that an investor from a venture capital company was looking for him.
