Chapter 881: Young Master Zhou

"Is this lacquer?" That female leader touched the radiator, "No wonder it's so smooth; it feels very substantial."

"It looks quite good, doesn't it?" Zhou Andong said helplessly: "But the cost went up quite a bit, so the retail price is still relatively expensive."

The female leader glanced at the price tag. The original price was 27 per unit; now it was 50% off, and it was still 13.5.

"13.5 per unit is a loss, but since it's a factory under the group, we gave a half-price discount to coordinate with the Grand Opening promotion of RT-Mart. Once the seven-day promotion ends, it will return to the original price."

After finishing, Tang Bei looked at a pretty sales assistant on the side: "Introduce the new type of radiator to the leaders."

"Okay!"

The sales assistant was a factory employee who had been specially arranged to be here. She recognized Zhou Andong as soon as she saw him, but because there were too many people, she hadn't had a chance to greet him yet.

"Chairman, hello!"

"Hello!" Zhou Andong said with a smile: "Introduce it to the leaders first."

At this moment, they heard a noisy sound coming from below. Tang Bei looked at her watch: "It's time to open for business."

Soon, customers rode the escalator up and headed straight for the home appliance section.

"Hurry, Haier refrigerators are on sale; they're over two hundred cheaper than at the Wang Fujing Department Store."

Within a few minutes, the second floor was already packed. Many people also gathered around the Rifeng radiator display, listening to the sales assistant's explanation.

"Leaders, Chairman Zhou has already mentioned just now that old-fashioned radiators are heavy, ugly, and have low pressure resistance. The sand inside the pipes cannot be completely cleared, causing environmental pollution. They must be kept full of water for maintenance, and over time, rust will cause heat meters and thermostatic valves to malfunction or break."

"However, this new type of radiator is not only energy-efficient and high-performing, but its quality is also stable. It has good thermal performance, high working pressure, is lightweight, and is convenient to transport and install."

"Our Rifeng radiator is the first in the world to use a lacquer process, and the equipment and paint are all imported from Germany. It is not only beautiful and good-looking, but also resistant to high temperatures and corrosion..."

"It is no exaggeration to say that the new radiators designed and produced by our factory are works of art, especially this wall-mounted ultra-thin design. Not only does it not affect thermal performance, but the inlet and outlet pipes can be installed in a concealed manner."

Speaking of this, the sales assistant scanned the crowd: "Like old-fashioned radiators, they are generally installed under the windowsill. To make them look good, you have to build a windowsill cabinet to cover them, right?"

"Right!" an older woman replied, and the others nodded along.

The sales assistant smiled slightly: "But once you do that, it looks good, but doesn't it cost extra money and take up a lot of space? Besides, the heat dissipation isn't as good, is it?"

"If you install our Rifeng radiator, it's a work of art hanging on the wall. Not only can you save the money for building a windowsill cabinet, but you can also save a significant amount of space."

"In addition, our factory also accepts private customization, customizing various colors and shapes according to the house's decoration style and the owner's preferences. For example, screens for the living room, towel racks for the bathroom, and so on."

"Radiators can also be privately customized?"

As the Deputy Secretary of the second-largest city in Longjiang Province, Jiang Huijun certainly had plenty of vision and insight. But today, many things broke her perception; radiators could actually be customized.

The sales assistant looked proud: "Of course, but the price for private customization will be very high. Because the mold opening and the separate manufacturing of irregular pipe fittings are very expensive..."

"Comrade!" a girl asked: "Is your Rifeng radiator here really 50% off?"

"Of course!" the sales assistant said: "But it's only limited to the seven days of RT-Mart's opening. After that, it will return to the original price."

"I know!" The girl looked at the red radiator hanging on the wall, her eyes bright, "I saw it at 365 Home Furnishings, and it was 27 per unit. It was too expensive."

"Yesterday I heard a friend say that RT-Mart supermarket was opening and many products were on sale, and Rifeng radiators were included, so we came to line up at six o'clock."

The sales assistant asked: "How many square meters is your house?"

The girl tilted her head and looked at a boy beside her: "Was it sixty-something square meters?"

"Sixty-three square meters!" the boy said: "Two bedrooms and a living room."

"If the heating is relatively good, a set of six units for the bedroom is enough. If the heating is a bit worse, eight to ten units. As for the living room, a set of five is enough."

In this era, most houses had larger bedroom spaces and smaller living room spaces.

"Counting eight units per bedroom, two bedrooms would be sixteen units, plus five units for the living room, that's twenty-one units in total."

The boy calculated: "13.5 per unit, that's 263.5."

"It's half the price, what are you still thinking about?" The girl pulled the boy.

Looking at the girl's eager eyes, the boy smiled helplessly: "Okay, since you like it, then let's buy it."

The girl smiled sweetly and said to the sales assistant: "I want the red one."

The sales assistant said: "Are you customizing furniture at 365?"

"Yes!" The girl nodded: "We are getting married, of course we want the best."

"Miss, it's like this." The sales assistant advised: "Because 365 Home Furnishings is all custom-made, it is designed by designers according to the house's spatial layout."

"Therefore, the color, style, and installation of the radiator are very particular. For example, the matching of positions, colors, and styles with the furniture."

"This way, it can be consistent with the overall style of the interior decoration, obtain a better visual effect, and give the owner a more superior and comfortable living environment."

"So, it's best if you ask the designer what color and style of radiator is suitable for your home. Otherwise, you buy it and take it home, but it doesn't match the overall style, and then no matter how you look at it, it will feel awkward. You will see it every day, that would be so annoying."

"But!" the girl said hesitantly: "If I go to ask the designer, will he agree to let me buy the radiator from you?"

The sales assistant smiled: "Our Rifeng and 365 Home Furnishings are strategic partners. You just need to buy how many units you need, pay the money, and leave your address and contact information."

"But you have to be careful, notify us when you renovate the water and electricity in the house. Because Rifeng radiators are all concealed, you have to bury the inlet and outlet pipes in the wall when renovating the water and electricity."

"So that's how it is." The girl smiled: "Okay, we'll pay now."

You have to know that old-fashioned radiators only cost seven or eight yuan per unit. Even at 50% off, this new type of radiator was still much more expensive, so those who could afford to buy it were not in bad financial condition.

Jiang Huijun listened and watched, and only after seeing the sales assistant was busy did she say to Zhou Andong: "365 Home Furnishings, is that the enterprise of your younger brother, Young Master Zhou?"

"Yes!" Zhou Andong smiled slightly: "At the time, I said I wanted my brother to build a furniture factory in Qi City, but it seems none of you were that interested."

"Who said we weren't interested?" Jiang Huijun said with a straight face: "As long as Young Master Zhou is willing to build a factory in Qi City, we will definitely welcome it with both hands, and the discounts that should be given will not be a bit less."
