Back to the golden age

As the country announced the resumption of the college entrance examination, since the end of 78, there has been a wave of learning craze across the country, and this craze has not subsided until the late 80s.

Because of their thirst for knowledge, the enthusiasm of young students in this era for learning is unimaginable in later generations. They spontaneously collect the textbooks, test papers, and manuscripts they can find everywhere, and they are even willing to bring a textbook that has just been released. Dry food and kettles stand in line at the door of the educational bookstore and wait all day and night. This scene is even worse than the first launch of Apple's new mobile phone more than 30 years later.

Today's textbooks, tutoring materials, and reference materials are far less dazzling than those in later generations. There is even a lack of normal textbooks in bookstores, let alone other things?

Chinese traditional thinking attaches great importance to education. When Song Guangzeng was alive, he often said to Song Yuanchao: There is a golden house in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book.

As a senior intellectual, Song Guangzeng is very concerned about Song Yuanchao's education, and has great expectations for his future.It is a pity that due to special reasons of the times, Song Yuanchao failed to complete high school and enter university for further studies as Song Guangzeng imagined, but went to the northwest to go to the mountains and countryside.

When the education channel that has been suppressed for many years and stagnant is opened, the desire of countless young people to change their destiny through learning erupts like a volcano, thus creating such a situation.

In the later generations, education is also a huge industrial chain, and cram schools and training centers can be seen everywhere in the whole society. It is the good wish of every parent of a child (female) to hope for success. For the future of the child, parents invest whatever they can Practical actions have proved this point.

Although the school-run factory of No. [-] Middle School is small in scale, and its equipment and product structure are not very good, it is not without its advantages.

Among them, as the school-run factory of No. [-] Middle School, a key middle school in Shanghai, the No. [-] Middle School behind it is its best advantage.

Compared with ordinary schools and senior high schools in other places, key middle schools like No. [-] Middle School are incomparable to other schools in terms of teaching staff and channels within the education system.

Among other things, it is just like the reference materials for the college entrance examination review. The archives of the Second Middle School store the previous college entrance examination papers and exercises from the establishment of the Second Middle School to the present, plus the internal exercise test papers of each graduating class, etc., these Things are usually not noticed at all, but in the eyes of Song Yuanchao, they are out-and-out huge wealth.

Even if Song Yuanchao had the intention to do this before, he still couldn't do it without these things.But it's different now. The school-run factory sorts out these materials, and then prints and binds them into volumes. Song Yuanchao can imagine what the results will be once they are put on the market.

According to the negotiation (negotiation) between Song Yuanchao and the director of the factory, the final one-time fee for data collection and lease of the letterpress printing machine was 500 yuan. In addition, the cost of paper and ink plus labor was calculated at 50% per sheet. According to these cost calculations, Song Yuanchao had long thought that the basic cost of a 0.75-page exercise book would be about 800, plus the production cost of the letterpress would need to invest about 500 yuan in advance. If calculated according to the minimum batch of 3.35 copies printed, The cost of a single book is [-] yuan, which is still relatively high.

However, the cost calculation cannot be calculated in this way, because the rental of a letterpress printing machine is calculated on a monthly basis, and the cost of data collection and letterpress production is also a one-time expenditure, so from this point of view, the more printing, the lower the cost .

1000册的话单册成本就能从3.35元降到2.05元，如果是2000册话，单册成本就能降到1.4元，5000册的话单册成本就是1.01元……。

Based on the current market demand, Song Yuanchao feels that [-] copies may not be able to satisfy it. No one knows the size of this market better than Song Yuanchao.

This is only Shanghai and Shanghai. If you add the provinces and cities around Shanghai and Shanghai, the potential of the market is even more unimaginable.

The education level in Shanghai was originally one of the best in the country, and the education in other provinces and cities cannot be compared with that in Shanghai. In some places, it is even more difficult to get an internal test paper from Shanghai.

The so-called friend Song Yuanchao said was not someone else, but Gu Jie.

After get off work, Song Yuanchao and Li Daqi invited Gu Jie out to discuss the matter in detail. Next, Gu Jie needs to meet with Director Ma to formally finalize the discussion. Song Yuanchao had already made a plan, and Gu Jie nodded while listening. , carefully keep in mind.

"If this job is done well, it's no worse than making clothes hangers, and it can be done for a long time." Song Yuanchao said with dry mouth, and took a big sip from his teacup.

Li Daqi on the side tilted his head and looked at Song Yuanchao, looking at him with a strange expression, Song Yuanchao was puzzled and asked him what was going on, Li Daqi asked back: "How did you grow such a head? You can come up with such an idea? "

Song Yuanchao didn't say much, and directly replied "hehe".

"Brother Song, what are you going to do with this business? You can't go to the vegetable market to set up a stall like selling clothes hangers before, can you?" Gu Jie asked after thinking for a while.

"What do you think?" Song Yuanchao didn't answer, but asked Gu Jie instead, and at the same time looked at Li Daqi: "Daqi, what do you think is the right way?"

After Song Yuanchao finished speaking, he drank tea leisurely by himself, while Li Daqi and Gu Jie looked at each other and fell into deep thought for a while.

Li Daqi is a person with drive and brains. People like him can succeed as long as they are given a chance in this era.The facts of later generations have also proved this point. Li Daqi has the foundation of a successful businessman, but now Li Daqi is not the self that later generations have proven.

As for Gu Jie, Song Yuanchao didn't know him at first, and only dealt with him because of Li Daqi.After contacting him, I found that Gu Jie is a good person. Although his brain is not as flexible as Li Daqi, his personality is very calm. As for his character, Gu Jie has also passed the test of Li Daqi. He already regards Gu Jie as his team member.

Song Yuanchao has his own ideas and plans, but in his heart, both Li Daqi and Gu Jie will be in charge of the future, so he didn't intend to tell them what to do next, but asked them a question in this way .

Starting from the business of hangers, whether it is the procurement of raw materials, intermediate production, or subsequent sales, Song Yuanchao had already arranged in advance, and everyone carried out according to Song Yuanchao's vision.

But it was different now. This time, Song Yuanchao was going to let Li Daqi and Gu Jie think about the problem by themselves, to think and figure out how to do this well.

Song Yuanchao's question stumped the two of them at once. At first, they seemed to think that this question was not difficult, but after careful consideration, they found that there were many clues, and for a while, they didn't know where to start.

For a while, the room fell silent, the two smoked cigarettes and frowned slightly thinking, Song Yuanchao didn't bother them, just drank tea and waited patiently.

After a while, Song Yuanchao smiled and said, "It's not urgent. You go back and think about it carefully, think about it in many ways, and if you can, write down your thoughts one by one on paper. We'll discuss it later."

"Okay, I'll talk to you when I've figured it out." Li Daqi nodded immediately when she understood Song Yuanchao's intentions, and Gu Jie naturally didn't object. Seeing that it was getting late, the two left and Song Yuanchao sent them out. After they left, Song Yuanchao came in. It was only then that I noticed that there seemed to be a letter in the mailbox hanging by the door, and I was overjoyed and quickly took out the key to open the mailbox.
