MTL - A Day In a Japanese Fishing Village-Chapter 682 Cup noodles and bowl noodles come out

   "Okay, now I will start to divide the funds of the three major departments of our Nanye Foods Company, namely the artificial food department, genetically modified food, and puffed food!" Nanye Shuichi stood on the top and said loudly.

   His food company is made up of these three departments. If the three departments are classified differently, the division of funds will also be different. Among them, the research and development and production costs of puffed food are the lowest, and then there is the genetically modified food, which can be done once the genetically modified plant is researched. The last and most expensive research and development is artificial food. This requires a variety of scientific and technological research and development.

   "The puffed food will get US$50 million in funding, the development of genetically modified food will get US$400 million, and the artificial food will get US$550 million!" Nanye Xiuyi said solemnly.

  These funds are not only used for research and development, but also include various expenses such as opening factories, establishing sales outlets, establishing transportation channels, foreign sales outlets, sales channels and cooperation.

   That is to say, this money contains the whole of the industry!

   One-stop.

  The reason why genetically modified food and artificial food need so much money is because it takes into account the product research and development of the second, third, and Nth phases in the future. For example, genetically modified food, genetically modified rice, genetically modified corn, genetically modified eggplant, genetically modified potatoes, genetically modified soybeans, genetically modified ... Anyway, as long as crops are genetically modified, they can be developed. This is a huge century-level industrial chain, and investing several hundred million is a long-term vision for him.

   There are also artificial foods, artificial eggs, artificial meat, all kinds of edible things…

   "Now, I announce the main heads of the three divisions of Nanye Foods Company..."

  After a day of meetings, even meals were eaten at the company. After a whole day, Shuichi Minano finally arranged everything that should be said and arranged.

  The funds were immediately credited to the account the next day. Since Nanye Foods was registered a month ago, various employees were immediately recruited to set up the factory after the funds arrived. As for the recruitment of various R&D professors, experts, scientists, agricultural professors, etc., the work is left to these high-level executives.

   "I don't care, you must recruit well-known professional experts, and do your best to develop genetically modified crops, artificial foods, etc..."

   As the so-called boss speaks, the lower-level executives all run and break their legs, and the business machine of the Nanye Consortium begins to run wildly. Due to sufficient funds, it is of course handy to do it, and it is not at all sloppy.

   Whoever dares to drag seven or eight, no matter what senior you are, will be fired!

   On the third day, three workshops were established immediately, one for the production of spicy strips, the second for the instant noodles, and the third for the processing of gou oil.

  These three are the easiest to produce and one of the many foods that Shuichi Minano wrote in the first phase of his plan.

   Among the three kinds of food, the most difficult one is instant noodles. After all, it is really difficult for instant noodles to be delicious and never get tired of eating them. This recipe is very important. Under the joint research and development of huge funds and many gourmets, pastry chefs, and various experts, it was developed in just 2 months.

  Instant noodles, also known as side noodles, actually appeared in the island country a few years ago.

  The person who invented instant noodles is called Ando, ​​and its Nissin company is also a company specializing in the production of instant noodles. In later generations, Nissin Instant Noodle Company is definitely one of the largest instant noodles producers. After all, instant noodles were invented by him.

   In recent years, since he has not applied for a technical patent, many businesses have seen business opportunities in it, so it is estimated that there are dozens of small factories producing instant noodles in the entire island country.

  In fact, the production of instant noodles started in 1959!

  In 1959, Momofuku Ando, ​​the father of instant noodles, ran his own small food workshop. He is an active-minded person who is not comfortable with the status quo, always thinking about how to make his own business better and bigger.

  Ando takes the tram every day and sees many people queuing in front of the restaurant next to the station, waiting to eat hot noodles. One day he suddenly had an idea: if he could produce a kind of noodles that "just use boiling water - rinse and eat", it is estimated that home travelers will be willing to buy them in large quantities. Therefore, he resolutely determined the invention of the development of "instant noodles".

   Momofuku Ando immediately started experimenting with the invention. He bought a noodle rolling machine and started the innovation of instant noodles under the suspicion of everyone.

   In order to achieve "convenience and simplicity", he thought of "frying", so that the noodles can be fried quickly and easily stored. Noodles will naturally have many pores after being fried. These pores will absorb water when soaked in hot water, which can make instant noodles soften quickly, and the fried noodles will taste better. During this period, he also invented the method of adding seasonings to make his instant noodles delicious and delicious.

   However, although he invented instant noodles, it is not complete. At present, there is only one muscle ramen on the market, which was invented by Ando. Other businesses have followed suit.

   The most important thing is that the soup base of this muscle ramen does not have the chicken soup taste of later generations. That is to say, just put some seasoning and muscle mass in the ramen.

  The taste is far inferior to the instant noodles of later generations!

   In addition to this, the instant noodles in 1961 were not the cup noodles of later generations, they were served in paper cups, not bowl noodles, but in paper bowls!

  The instant noodles in 1961, no, all the instant noodles manufacturers including Ando, ​​the father of instant noodles, all produced instant noodles in bags.

   This bag of instant noodles needs to be bought home and then soaked in boiling water in a bowl at home before eating, or boiled in a pot before eating!

   In other words, paper bowls and cups and bowls of instant noodles have not been invented yet!

  Instant noodles, paper bowls and cups and bowls are the real instant noodles, okay? This only reflects its aspect. With a paper bowl, you only need to open the package and pour in boiling water!

   Historically, because many people did not have the habit of boiling water, and the tableware at home was mainly dinner plates. In order to let people who are not used to using bowls consume instant noodles, Nissin, the father of instant noodles, invented cup noodles with expanded polystyrene as a container, which was listed in the island country in 1971 and sold for 100 yen ($0.25 USD). ), which was more than three times the price of bagged instant noodles at that time.

   We learned from this news that the instant noodles in bowls and cups were only invented in 1971. Now Shuichi Minano is planning to win this patent and unify the instant noodles interface.

   What if your father of instant noodles invented instant noodles?

   But Minami Shuuichi got the most successful patent for this instant noodles, which is also its biggest advantage.

  …

   Two months later, Minami Shuichi appeared at the headquarters of Minami Food Company.

In the    office he met the general manager Ji Gaojun.

   "Have you invented the paper bowl and cup bowl that I asked you to invent?" Minano Shuichi asked.

"Mr. Report Chairman, I lived up to my expectations. I invented it a week ago. I sent someone to apply for a patent four days ago. I believe it should be able to apply in a few days. By the way, our instant noodles are also produced samples. There are currently four flavors, one is mushroom chicken flavor, which uses chicken soup base, the second is spicy beef flavor, which uses beef soup base, and the third is seafood flavor, which uses seafood soup The fourth one is sauerkraut flavor, using a hot and sour soup base..." Ji Gao Junhui reported.

   "Very good, let me ask you, will these types of instant noodles be available next month?"

   "Yes!" Jigao said confidently. The main reason is that the funds are sufficient this time, and the whole product is not fast in the process of research and development and production of samples. Another is that the instant noodle plan in the plan is very detailed, saving them a lot of time.

   So it can be done within three months!

   Sometimes, having enough money is definitely a feeling that makes you feel fast.

   "That's good, since that's the case, after a week, you will start shooting commercials to promote a wave of our instant noodles, yes, it's called Nanye instant noodles, haha..." Nanye Xiuyi laughed.

   He can imagine that when his Nanno instant noodles enter the market, they will definitely be welcomed by the masses. No reason, because the instant noodles are still in bags these days, which is generally too troublesome and not enough. The second is the single taste. But his instant noodles are different. It is really ready to eat after opening the bag, opening the bag, releasing the water, and you can eat it in two or three minutes. Because the instant noodles are filled in bowls and cups, not in bags like others, just bring boiling water directly. Convenience, very aspects.

   In addition to the aspect, it is the taste, you can choose any of the four flavors!

   is another trick to attract customers.

   A week later, the advertisement of Nanye Instant Noodles officially came out, which also announced the advent of bowl noodles and cup noodles of instant noodles. The ad really caused quite a stir when it came out. Don't say anything, it caused a great sensation in the instant noodle world alone!

When those dozens of instant noodle producers, large and small, were shocked when they saw that they had invented paper bowls and paper cups, this idea, no, this invention really turned instant noodles into instant noodles, which is really reflected in Convenience on the word.

   In addition to this, that is its taste, they did not think that instant noodles can have N flavors.

   Even Ando, ​​the father of instant noodles, was stunned when he saw this advertisement.

   Nissin Corporate Office.

  When Ando looked at the photo of instant noodles on the newspaper, he was so shocked that he could not forget it for a long time.

   "This invention... surpassed me, all my previous efforts were ruined. I made others! I lost..." Ando burst into tears. He is not a fool, but very smart. He can see the real establishment of instant noodles from this Nanye instant noodles, and it will be a big hit.

  Unfortunately, he didn't think of this simple bowl and cup, but let the people at the Nanye Consortium think of it. The instant noodles he invented became other people's wedding clothes, and he felt that pain!
