Urban Sims

Chapter 275 Insufficient Funds
I went to find a high-end restaurant nearby and had lunch. In the afternoon, Zhou Ming drove to the high-tech park.

Magic Liquid Research Institute.

"Hi Mr. Zhou."

As soon as they entered the company, the two girls at the front desk smiled and bowed to greet them.

"Mr. Zhou."

"Mr. Zhou."

In the corridor, the staff who come and go, come in and out, are all wearing uniforms with work badges on their chests, and when they see the boss coming, they all greet him politely.

Zhou Ming nodded slightly, nodding to them again and again.

Zhou Ming is quite satisfied with the atmosphere in the research institute. The popularity of the company has increased, and all the work is on the right track. Any visitor who comes to this research institute will not believe it. This company has more than 300 employees. The rules and regulations are very complete, and the regular company with well-organized research work has been established for less than 3 months.

Of course, the improvement of the system is one aspect. The most important thing is that the boss of this company is willing to spend money and spend money hard.

In less than three months, 1.5 million was lost.

The average salary of employees has reached 2, which is 30% higher than the industry average... This company is not stingy with excellent talents.

Coupled with the recipes that Zhou Ming took out, the results came out very quickly.

inside the laboratory.

On the experimental table in front of Zhou Ming, there were three liquids in beakers.

The leader of the project team, Tian Yuanhao, a young doctor in his thirties, adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, pointed to a cup of golden-colored samples, and explained to Zhou Ming: "Boss, this is Gaoneng No. 1." The sample of the nutrient solution contains 68 kinds of vitamins, amino acids, enzymes, hormones, fats and sugars, the concentration is 9.3%, and the energy density is 114 kcal per [-] grams, which is three times that of an equal volume of cola."

Pointing to the dark yellow sample in the middle cup, he said, "This is Gaoneng No. 2, which contains 75 chemical components with a concentration of 8.5%. There are 1 kinds of hormones in it, four more than No. 87, and the content of hormones is relatively high. After drinking it, people will be more excited and last longer!"

Finally, he pointed to the light yellow sample on the far right and said: "This is Gaoneng No. 3, which contains 44 chemical components with a concentration of 11.4%. Because of the increased sugar content, the energy density is the highest among the three nutritional solutions." , close to 130 calories per 3 grams, high-energy No. [-] has a weaker sustained effect, but has the best short-term energy supplement effect, and the preparation cost is the lowest among the three nutritional solutions."

There are three kinds of high-energy nutrient solutions, each with its own advantages and disadvantages and characteristics.

Gaoneng No. 1 has a balanced effect, high energy density, more comprehensive nutrition, longer duration and less side effects.

Gaoneng No. 2 has the best effect, the most complete nutritional elements, and low energy density, but it has a good effect on stimulating the human body's potential and lasts the longest, but it also has the greatest side effects.

Gaoneng No. 3 is less effective, has the fewest types of chemical substances, but has the highest energy density, better short-term effect, and the lowest preparation cost.

The general manager Gao Wenhui on the side also said to Zhou Ming:
"Boss, Gaoneng No. 1 focuses on balance, safety, and less side effects, so it has a high promotion value; Gaoneng No. 2 has the best effect, but the cost is the highest, and the side effects are also large. It may not pass the approval of the Food and Drug Administration; Gaoneng No. 3 The cost is the lowest, and the effect is good, and a production line can be established to push it to the market on a large scale.”

Therefore, in the face of these three high-energy nutrient solutions that have been successfully developed, the question before Zhou Ming is: which one should be mass-produced first.

There is a sequence for everything, and the process of preparing nutrient solution is complicated. It’s not like throwing a bunch of messy seasonings into the water like cooking soup in the kitchen. There are hundreds of preparation processes for the preparation of each nutrient solution. And in order to reduce the chemical reaction between each other, each process must be operated in strict accordance with the regulations, and one step cannot be missed.

Therefore, the production line cannot be shared, and the mass production of each nutrient solution must be equipped with a production line.

And if you consider it from a purely market perspective, Gaoneng No. 3 has a much larger market prospect than No. 1. With the cost advantage, it is conceivable that once the market is opened, it will definitely make huge profits.

That money is earned in hundreds of millions and billions.

So Gao Wenhui also suggested: "Boss, let's mass-produce Gaoneng No. 3 first. Our researchers have done comparative experiments. Even Gaoneng No. 3, which has the worst effect, has a higher energy density than the Red Bull drink on the market. times, the effective time is 50% longer, the side effects are less, and the preparation cost is similar to theirs. I think if our company also launches a similar functional drink, it will win a large market share.”

but……

Zhou Ming fell into deep thought.

Gao Neng No. 3 can make money, but it is not what he wants most.

What he needs most is Gao Neng No. 1.

Only the high-energy No. 1 can allow him to enter the "Sims" game and supplement all the necessary elements needed by his body so that he will not lose weight while he is in a dormant state.

"Old Gao, how much does it cost to introduce a beverage production line?" Zhou Ming asked Gao Wenhui.

"It depends on the advanced level of technology. Beverage production lines with manual stations are relatively cheap, and the price is between 500 million and 5000 million. If it is the kind of unmanned fully automatic production line, at least 1 million, more than 5 million." Billion billion."

"The high-energy nutrient solution developed by our company has a complicated preparation process and fine operation requirements, so we must buy that kind of high-intelligence fully automatic production line. The imported price is at least 3 million yuan."

Gao Wenhui said.

"3 billion?"

Zhou Ming was slightly dumbfounded, this price is really a bit expensive.

What's more, in order to put the magic liquid research institute into use as soon as possible, the money he spent has far exceeded his previous estimate. The 5000 million is just a blank. But after all the investment, we saw more obvious results.

There are fewer places to spend money now, but there are more than 300 people in the company, and the monthly salary is more than 600 million.

And the money left in Zhou Ming's hands is only enough to pay two months' salary.

This does not include other expenses.

"It's only been a few days, why have I become a pauper again?"

Gao Wenhui also said that it would cost more than 3 million yuan to build a beverage production line...

Zhou Ming felt that his head was a bit big. Today, he has golden fingers all over his body. It stands to reason that he doesn't have to worry about running out of money. He just took out some high-tech materials and wanted to make some money. It must be hundreds of dollars. Hundreds of billions of money are desperately sent to him, but this way of making money is too ostentatious, and will be targeted by various forces, causing endless troubles.

After all, famous celebrities and rich celebrities are completely different concepts.

Unless he can figure out some way to make a lot of money while attracting less attention.

And before he has enough ability to protect himself, he will not be targeted by various forces.

And recently, Zhou Ming also has a plan model in his brain, which can permanently solve the problem of lack of money.

After thinking for a while, he said to Gao Wenhui: "Old Gao, you go to the market first, find out the price of the fully automated beverage production line, and put forward our needs. If the price is right, first buy a production line for mass production of high-energy No. 1 nutrient solution , Don’t worry about the money, I will find a way to raise it.”

This……

Gao Wenhui was slightly taken aback, and said puzzledly: "Boss, the market audience of Gaoneng No. 1 is still relatively small, and the price is also very expensive. If you want to make a quick profit, I suggest that you should go to Gaoneng No. 3 first, and wait until you have money." Then go to Gaoneng No. 1 production line!"

He knew that this young boss was not a rich second generation and would not have a lot of money at hand. It was beyond his expectation to start a business with more than [-] million yuan. , even most of the rich second generation have to worry about how to get so much money.

So, whether the boss likes to listen or not, he still made his suggestion.

Zhou Ming smiled lightly and said: "Don't worry, it's only a few hundred million, it's not a big problem, just do as I tell you, go to Gaoneng No. 1 first, and Gaoneng No. 3 won't wait too long. The two production lines I will have the money."

He understands Gao Wenhui's meaning, but what he urgently needs now is the high-energy No. 1 nutrient solution, not the high-energy No. 3 that ordinary people drink.

And he is the number one important customer, the Institute of Magic Liquid, so his needs must be met first.

When the boss said that there would be no shortage of money, Gao Wenhui nodded and didn't say anything more.

　It's a bit late, the state is very bad recently, it is in the adjustment period, the update will slow down a bit, forgive me...
