  Chapter 72 The moon is still round at home

  Back from Central, Chen Yi stopped by and bought the schoolbag he had promised his sister. He was afraid that one day he would accidentally forget it and be blamed by his sister.

  Back to the factory, Chen Yi saw that the lights in the office were still on, and when he entered, he saw that Chen Ying was still lying on the sofa, holding a book and reading.

   "Xiaoying, why haven't you gone back to rest?"

   "Second brother, you are back."

  Chen Ying got up from the sofa, saw the schoolbag in Chen Yi's hand, then threw the book on the sofa, stepped forward and took the schoolbag from her second brother.

   "Second brother, did you just go out to buy me a schoolbag?"

   "What's this?" Opening the schoolbag, Chen Ying found another book inside. After flipping through it, she found that it was full of pictures and introductions of ceiling fans, "Second brother, where did you come from?"

  Chen Yi replied, and asked directly: "Do you like the schoolbag?"

  Chen Ying handed the book introducing the ceiling fan to Chen Yi, patted the schoolbag, and said happily: "I like it, second brother, how did you know that I like this style of schoolbag? I don't remember telling you!"

   "I guess," Chen Yi said with a smile, no matter what age young people are, the history of thinking about fashion trends will not change.

  Although he didn't know exactly what style of schoolbag Chen Ying liked, he was sure to choose the latest, trendiest and most popular schoolbag among girls.

   "Did Mom and Dad go back yet?"

   "Not yet, Mom is stewing something and said she won't be back until later."

  Chen Yi nodded after hearing this, and then took the book he bought from the fan shop. This book is full of European and American classical ceiling fans.

   Not only books, today he also found out that there are many factories in Xiangjiang that specialize in the production of ceiling fans for Europe and the United States, but none of them produce classical ceiling fans.

  Xiangjiang's classic ceiling fans are basically imported from Europe and the United States, and the quantity is not large, mainly because the market demand is not large.

   As we all know, if there is an "ancient" word, the price will be very different.

  The price of classic ceiling fans is two or three times higher than that of ordinary ceiling fans. The price is not dominant, and the market share is naturally not large.

  The reason why Liu in his previous life was successful was mainly because the European and American retro styles became popular in the 1970s, so the classical ceiling fans he produced were so easy to sell.

   However, the production of classic ceiling fans is not a long-term solution, but the ordinary electric fan market is highly competitive, and the cost must be reduced in order to win the market.

  Thus, although Chen Yi has not given up on entering the electric fan market, he is no longer as active as before.

  However, it is a blessing in disguise.

   While learning about the fan market, Chen Yi discovered a big business opportunity, a business opportunity with a scale of more than one trillion in future generations.

   This business opportunity is nothing but the air conditioner market.

  Finally, Ms. Dong relied on her own air conditioner and Gree Electric Appliances to sit with Lao Wang and the big and small horses without losing the slightest bit of wind.

   From this we can see how much confidence Gree Electric has given Ms. Dong.

  Air conditioners are an unavoidable topic in the home appliance industry. Nowadays, most of the air conditioners in European and American countries are central air conditioners. The disadvantage of this type of air conditioner is obvious, that is, they cannot freely adjust the temperature.

We all know that the air-conditioning room in the home can freely adjust the temperature. It can automatically provide the required cooling (heating) according to the room conditions. When the indoor temperature reaches the desired value, the air-conditioning host can accurately maintain a constant temperature. Speed ​​operation, to achieve "non-stop operation", so as to ensure that the ambient temperature remains unchanged.

  The current household air conditioners cannot do this.

   Among them, the frequency converter is the focus.

  The frequency converter is a control system used to control and adjust the speed of the compressor, so that it is always in the best speed state, thereby improving the energy efficiency ratio.

  Inverter air conditioners can not only keep the indoor temperature at a constant temperature without fluctuating hot and cold, but also save electricity and energy to the greatest extent.

  Actually, for the development of household air conditioners, the United States had already started as early as the mid-1920s, but unfortunately, the mid-1920s was around the time of World War I and World War II.

  In which era, it was good for ordinary households to have a fan. Whoever thought it was too much money would buy expensive home appliances like air conditioners.

   Without market demand, naturally no one will develop it.

  It was not until the 1950s that the world was generally peaceful, and countries around the world, mainly European and American countries, began to vigorously develop their economies. After the economic recovery, household air conditioners gradually became popular.

  Chen Yi didn't know when the air conditioner frequency conversion technology appeared, but he knew one thing, once he developed the air conditioner frequency conversion technology, he would be able to occupy a place in the future air conditioner market.

  It is not difficult to develop air-conditioning inverter technology. The reason why some things have not appeared is not that the technology is too difficult, but that people have not thought of it.

  As long as you find the right direction, some things are easy to do.

  The home appliance market is a very big piece of cake, and air conditioners and electric fans are just one of them.

  However, all of this has to be done slowly. Now let’s start with the fan, whether it is an ordinary fan or a classical ceiling fan.

  Even if the export does not make money, you can slowly accumulate technology, wait until the inland reform and opening up in a few years, and then directly enter the inland market.

  In the early days, there was no such thing as picky eaters in the inland market. To put it bluntly, as long as it is useful and usable, and the price is not ridiculously expensive, the inland market can digest it.

  During the period of reform and opening up, when people buy things, it’s not about what you want to buy, but what the merchants can sell.

  The backlog of goods will only appear after a few decades. There was no such thing as a backlog of goods in the 1970s and 1980s.

  With the huge inland market, even selling screws can make a fortune.

  Chen Yi remembers a saying, which roughly means that as long as a company can become the number one inland, it will one day become the number one in the world.

  So, compared with the overseas market, Chen Yi cares more about the inland market, not to mention his short-sightedness, let alone the inland poverty in this period.

  Even if the inland is poor, it has a population of more than one billion. With such a huge consumer market, even if the per capita consumption level is low, it is an astronomical figure.

  How about the third Indian brother in later generations? Most of their ordinary people are poor, but how many big companies are willing to give up the Indian market?

  As an ordinary person, Chen Yi only knows that the golden nest and the silver nest are not as good as his own doghouse, so Chen Yi is not that stupid to ask him to transfer investment and transfer most of his assets overseas.

  Overseas, no matter whether you have money or not, whether you have nationality or no nationality, second-class citizens will always be second-class citizens.

  The moon is still round at home...
