My travels can open treasure chests

Chapter 227 Making Toys

When I woke up the next day, the wind and the sun were beautiful.

Rongcheng has been extremely hot these past few days, and suddenly there is such a cloudy and rainy weather, which can definitely be regarded as sunny and sunny.Many parents also took their children to the garden of the community after a long absence and began to play wild. The child is not only a human being, but sometimes a dog.

The hairy child suddenly became interested in the child who was walking by, walked over to smell it, and the child suddenly burst into tears.

Good guy, this sound is really loud, you can hear it even if you live on the 12th floor.

Han Qi was awakened by this voice.

Stretched, didn't get up, lay on the bed and played with the phone again.

The sleep quality last night was good, I had no dreams all night.

"Fuck, 19 million?"

Han Qi remembered that the publishing house only printed 20 copies in total, and they disappeared all of a sudden?
"Brother Wang, are you there?" He called Wang Zheng in the work group.

Han Qi could sleep in, but Wang Zheng couldn't. In other words, he didn't sleep much that night. After receiving the news, he was so excited until five o'clock. After only an hour's sleep, he hurriedly set off and arrived at the printing factory with Xu Lei.

They had just come out of the printing factory when Han Qi sent the message.

"I'm here, are you awake, have you seen the news?"

"See, 19? What about today? Don't you have no books to sell?"

Wang Zheng looked at the cart that came to load the books and said:

"Yesterday, the printing factory was stepping up printing. A total of three printing factories in the south and the north worked all night. Anyway, they can still be bought these days. It's a bit difficult, and it's a pity."

It would have been nice to have anticipated this earlier.

Before the signing session started, everyone, including Han Qi himself, thought that 20 yuan was enough, and all of them were distributed to bookstores everywhere, leaving no stock.Even printing houses are printing other books for release these days.

"It's really a pity, but those who bought books in the past two days should be fans, and they shouldn't mind waiting a few more days."

Han Qi believed that his book could earn the reputation of readers, so he was not as anxious as Wang Zheng.

The two chatted for a few words before hanging up the phone.

Hearing yesterday's sales volume, Han Qi was in a good mood, and his drowsiness fell away. He got up and did some exercise in the living room.

Thanks to the system, Han Qi acquired the skill of free combat, so... boxing has become a hobby of Han Qi, and he can swing punches and jabs vigorously.He used to like punching and punching alone. After all, he has a good body, and he can't exert his energy when he is not traveling.

But compared with the speed of punching now, one is in the sky and the other is on the ground.

The speed and strength are more than several times stronger.

After waving for a few minutes, there was no real object, so it was a bit depressing to fight like this.

I looked at the sandbags on the shopping website, and it seems that they are not suitable for installation in the house, and this is a rented house. Will I be allowed to punch holes in the ceiling?

Forget it, let's talk about it later when we buy a new house.

Came to the study, turned on the computer and continued to write "Two Thousand Miles of Grassland Riding"

This book is about Han Qi's life on the grasslands. If someone who has watched the Mongolian travel video saw this book written by Han Qi, they probably would not have imagined that the beautiful and handsome ride would be so boring and difficult.

The help of Mongolian compatriots to Han Qi is interspersed in the middle.

At present, this book has written more than 3 words, and it is expected to write about 14 words.

It's not that he has no ideas, if he really wants to write, he can write thousands of words in an hour.Many authors think that the speed of their brains can't keep up with the speed of their hands, but Han Qi's hands can't keep up with the speed of his own brain.

Writing travel notes is different from writing traditional novels. Traditional novels sometimes take a year and a half to write a book, but travel notes are easy to write. After all, the complete story is in the mind, and the brain only needs to convert the pictures into words.

Today is a hard time to rest, so I should be able to write more.

Before Han Qi decided to ride a horse across the grassland, he encountered some things, such as looking for a horse farm but getting lost by the river, and then meeting Gao Wa and a series of things.This was the end of this travel note before, and now Han Qi is going to start writing the part about riding a horse across the grassland alone.

He was looking forward to writing about the day he met the prairie wolves.

This is his most unique and deepest impression of his trip to the grassland.

However, after only sitting for two hours, he couldn't sit still after writing nearly [-] words. He couldn't concentrate. He turned on the music, stood up and wandered around the room listening to the song.

I don't know what to do, anyway, I will write after a break.

Wandering around in his own room sounds a bit strange, but it is indeed something Han Qi often does these days.After all, this is the first home that Han Qi lived independently, and there are many travel souvenirs that he brought back from other places.

Go to the living room to look at the scenery outside the window, and then go back to the study to look at the souvenirs in the bookcase.

Han Qi found something that was brought back from Mongolia. It was dirty and put in a corner of the cabinet. He hadn't cared about it since he came back for so long.

Something about the size of the bottom of a beer bottle, maybe a little bigger.His whole body is pitch black, with a depression in the middle. This blackness has nothing to do with the dirt and dust on his body. It is the color of the material itself, but it should feel like a stone. Is there any stone that is pure black?

Han Qi didn't learn geography well, so he couldn't figure it out.

The soil was scraped off with a knife, exposing the original appearance of the stone.The bottom is flat, the corner of the edge is very smooth, and a place is sunken on the top... This is obviously an ancient inkstone. Did I really pick up an antique?

Han Qi flipped through it back and forth, but he could only confirm that it was an artificial inkstone.

It is also possible that it is not an inkstone, but something else.

He didn't find any clues, so he gave up and continued to study this object, and put it back on the cabinet as a decoration.

I was lazy for half an hour and continued to code.

The time was spent lazily and typing. I ordered takeaway for lunch, and someone knocked on the door just after eating.

When he opened the door and saw Xu Lei, Han Qi knew what was going on.

"To choose a style?"

"Yeah, they started making it last night and made more than 10 samples, why don't we take a look now?"

"Well, wait for me."

Han Qi asked Xu Lei to sit on the sofa first, and went to the bathroom to straighten his hair before coming out: "Okay, let's go, where is Brother Wang?"

"Brother Wang is still at the publishing house. He is very energetic now. It seems that he doesn't want to leave the publishing house for a while."

Speaking of the publishing house, Xu Lei suddenly remembered something and said:

"Brother Wang talked to the publishing house about giving back to fans in the morning, and the topic became a hot search, which saved the publishing house a lot of publicity fees. When I came out, they said that the money would be paid in half..."

"The capitalists have such good intentions?" Han Qi was puzzled.

This was originally an activity that I wanted to do, and I should have borne the expenses myself. Why did they take the initiative to pay for it?
"Do you want to print an advertisement in the future? This is not acceptable."

Xu Lei shook his head again and again:

"They didn't ask for it, but they said they hoped that you would continue to work hard. It would be even better if you could promote more brochures yourself."

"That's okay, I will definitely take the free money."

The toy factory was opened by a friend of Xu Lei's family. It is [-] kilometers away from Rongcheng, but it still belongs to the scope of Rongcheng and is an industrial area.After driving into the park, we drove around twice before arriving at our destination.

The boss waited for them outside the venue with a few people.Very young, probably the classmate Xu Lei mentioned.

After getting out of the car, the boss enthusiastically came over to shake hands with Han Qi, with a smile as bright as that of Maitreya Buddha.

Xu Lei introduced: "This is my college classmate, Sun Xiaofu, who has taken over the family's factory after graduation. It has been two or three years now, right?"

He wanted to introduce Han Qi to his classmates, but Sun Xiaofu hurriedly said: "Mr. Han, there is no need to introduce, I guess there are not many people who don't know him now. Hello, welcome to Mr. Han as a guide, let's sit on the second floor .”

"No need, let's get started."

I don't know when this will be done, Han Qi still wants to go home and sleep early.

Writing travel notes, playing games, sleeping, which is better than visiting factories.

"Right and resolute, Mr. Han, the praises on the Internet are not wrong at all. Well, we made some action models today, you can take a look."

Sun Xiaofu's Mandarin is not bad.

Otherwise, you, you, you, you, you will sound too awkward, and this word is usually not spoken in Sichuan dialect.

Han Qi put on his shoe covers and followed him into the factory.

The first floor is a very noisy production line, which is currently making a plush toy that looks like a bear, which is [-] centimeters in size.The employees are also very quiet, not chatting or doing other things, and concentrate on the work at hand.

Han Qi snickered twice in his heart.

They must be acting, right?

Saw the boss coming so behave a little better.

Han Qi understood very well, as if the people in the class saw the head teacher coming.

In the modern social system, the boss of the factory has much more power than the head teacher. At most, the head teacher will scold you and make you stop, while the boss can deduct your wages and even fire you.

Go up to the second floor, and when the last person comes in and closes the door, the whole world will be clean in an instant.

Although the sound of the machine can still be heard, it is inevitable. Even the advanced sound insulation equipment cannot completely eliminate the sound coming from within a few meters downstairs.

Here is a corridor, divided into front and left.

Sun Xiaofu said: "The front is for researching materials, which is a sterile room. If you want to visit, you need to change into a set of clothes. This is our office area. We have designed more than a dozen actions in the past two days. Take a look. Not suitable."

It turned out that it was not a live gesture.

Everyone entered an office area, and the hall where noises could be heard before entering the room suddenly became quiet, and only the sound of pressing the keyboard while working could be heard.

Sun Xiaofu walked in front and introduced Han Qi.

"This is our workspace. We have a total of 13 designers in Fusheng, and there are 22 workstations in this place. We plan to recruit fully in the second half of the year to develop new toys..."

Han Qi didn't speak, but nodded to show that he heard it.

He wondered what Sun Xiaofu was going to do, did he want to sell the factory to himself?I'm just a person who designs doll styles, don't introduce so many things to me, I'm not interested at all.

If he opened a wood carving, stone carving, or dough sculpture studio, Han Qi felt that he would be more interested.

Thinking of woodcarving, Han Qi was a little distracted.

Why hasn't my carving knife arrived for so many days? Now that I live in Rongcheng, is the express delivery so slow?
"Mr. Han Qi?"

"Yeah."

Seeing that Han Qi had regained his senses, Sun Xiaofu pointed to the monitor and said, "This is the first type we designed, and it is designed according to the cover of your new book."

Han Qi saw the painting on the monitor.

From the front, I was looking back and looking behind me. The folds of the clothes on my body were very fine, but I didn't know what happened to the real thing.

But something always feels wrong.

Didn't I ask Xu Lei to find someone to design dolls, this...why does it look like a figure, you are a company that makes figures?
The dolls he thought of were very simple ones, plush toys for children, the ones four or five centimeters big.

If you make it handmade, money is a trivial matter, and the most important thing is slowness.

Han Qi's engraving level is also at the professional level now, so I know how long it will take to get this done.If someone dares to promise you that it will be completed within the specified time, it must be a reservation in quality.

The sent things have quality problems?
No no no.

Han Qi shook his head quickly: "No."

He turned sideways and asked Xu Lei: "Didn't I say a plush toy? Why is it a figure?"

"I don't know either." Xu Lei was also a little confused.

Seeing that Han Qi was dissatisfied, Sun Xiaofu continued, "Don't you like making it a figure?"

"Yes." Han Qi simply nodded. "Time is very tight now. If you want to make these 1 dolls within a week, it's better to be simple. If you make them into figures, I'm worried whether you can make [-] dolls in a week."

"We're absolutely fine!"

Sun Xiaofu promised that his chest was slapping, and the flesh on his stomach was shaking.

Figures and dolls, of course, are more profitable. Making a figure can be sixty or seventy times more expensive than making a doll. If there is a chance, they will certainly let customers choose to make figures instead of cheap plush toys. .

But if Han Qi disagreed, there was nothing they could do.

In the end, it was Han Qi who decided to choose five classic looks from his video, and asked Sun Xiaofu and the others to make [-] of each look.

Seeing that the fooling around failed, Sun Xiaofu finally became honest and said: "If you want to ensure the quality, it is not enough to rely on machines alone, you have to go back to work and check one by one manually. In this way, one week is definitely not enough. If workers are asked to work in three shifts, they have to Ten days."

Han Qi thought for a while and said, "You don't need to work so hard, you can do it at the speed of delivering a batch in five days."

A total of 1 dolls were given out in the Weibo lottery, and they were distributed in batches and styles. There should be no problem, and they can look forward to what the next one will look like.

After finalizing a few details, Han Qi was finally satisfied and signed his name on the contract.

When Han Qi went downstairs, he saw a lot of figurines they had made before in a corner of the factory. Sun Xiaofu saw Han Qi's eyes, his eyes lit up, and trotted over to get two figurines.

"Mr. Han, look, this is what we did before, this texture, this detail..."

When Sun Xiaofu introduced, he almost burst into tears, Xu Lei couldn't see it, and covered his face with an ugly expression and turned to the side.He already knew that the fat man was an otaku, but he didn't expect to become more otaku after inheriting the family business, he's a fucking nerd, it's too shameful, I just joined the company.

After a few glances, Han Qi lost interest.

It should be pretty good, but I can't catch my eyes.

"Okay."
