"Then I'll talk about it?"

Tan Hongmei is not a shy person, but she involves food factories and a brand new field, and to some extent it is her own business. She is somewhat restrained and nervous.

"Sister Tan, just say whatever you have. In the future, you have to be your own side, just treat it as a practice."

Zhang Yiming continued to encourage.

"Well, then I'll say, I think so. Since it's a food factory, everything else is second-hand, and the focus is on the products. During this period, I have been reading books and searching for information, and have taken a lot of notes. I have sorted out some of the foods in the market, including those in the farmers' market. I think we can make full use of some resources in Tongyuan County to make some foods with obvious characteristics of Tongyuan, such as the drunk dates you mentioned before, peanut crisps, peanut cakes, and eggs. These things are all specialties of our Tongyuan County. You said before that the tourism industry in Tongyuan County will definitely develop rapidly in the future, so it should be feasible for us to target specialty foods?"

Tan Hongmei expressed her thoughts, and then looked at Zhang Yiming with a little nervousness.

She has no education and does not read enough books. She has been working as an operator in a telecommunications company since she came to Tongyuan County at the age of nineteen. She has been in contact with a limited number of people over the past ten years and has a narrow circle of life. She can still show confidence in her business field, but if she changes into another field, she is not so confident about herself.

"Sister Tan, you can think that the level of specialties is already very powerful, but you mentioned just now that the development of the tourism industry requires a process. At least in the current few years, specialties are not enough to support the operation of the entire food factory. What we need to produce should be things that ordinary people can consume on a daily basis. Although things like biscuits and bread are used to be old-fashioned, it is undeniable that the market space they have is still much larger than specialties."

When Tan Hongmei heard what Zhang Yiming said, she was slightly disappointed. She thought about what she had just said for a long time before she thought about it, but she didn't expect that Zhang Yiming would reject it all at once.

"Sister Tan, the first thing we need to do now is to make the food factory survive. If you want to survive, you need to be down-to-earth, and it must be in line with the consumption capacity and consumption concepts of the people in Tongyuan County. Secondly, it is to make the food factory bigger and stronger and make its own characteristics and brands. You can think about it, what is the food we need most in our daily lives?

"meal?"

People are iron rice and steel, and they are hungry even if they don’t eat for a meal. This is Tan Hongmei’s first reaction, although she soon realized that there must be something wrong with the answer.

"Haha, it's right, it's not right. What people cannot live without is water. The limit of survival for a person without eating is about 20 days, but if you don't drink water, it's usually only 7 days. Of course, this is just off-topic. I plan to regard water as the first main product of our food factory."

As soon as Zhang Yiming finished speaking, Tan Hongmei's eyes widened.

This time it was different from the previous emotions. She thought Zhang Yiming's idea was simply too incredible, even too outrageous.

"Xiao Ming, are you...serious?"

Tan Hongmei took a tactful remark.

"Sister Tan, I know what you are thinking, but I can tell you responsibly that the market potential of drinking water is huge."

Tan Hongmei didn't know, and it was hard to even imagine what Zhang Yiming said, but Zhang Yiming, who had lived for a lifetime, knew better than anyone else how terrifying the drinking water market was.

Haha, Master, Bao, Shanquan...... All beverage companies are rushing to compete for the share of the drinking water market. In just four years from 2014 to 2018, the output of drinking water increased from 518,000 tons to 1.904,200 tons. This growth is very terrifying. Looking at all industries, not many production and market sales can be on par with the drinking level.

"Xiao Ming, I really can't understand what you are talking about. Now, basically every household has tap water. Water can come out as soon as the faucet is turned on. If you want to drink it, dig wells at home. If you want to pursue hygiene, boil the water and drink it. Isn't it a bit... unrealistic?"

Tan Hongmei originally wanted to say something whimsical, but the words were changed to unrealistic when they were spoken.

"Sister Tan, the appearance of something is not because it is so unusual, or even how good it is. It can appear and be accepted and finally recognized and sought after, because we give it different values ​​and meanings. Yes, tap water, well water, boiled water are all things we drink every day now, but you should know where the water source of tap water comes from, basically all are directed from the reservoir to the tap water plant, Daqing Reservoir, and Jianshanzui Reservoir. You should also know what the water quality is. Even after disinfection, do you think that bacteria that cannot be seen in our eyes can be completely eliminated and killed?"

"Then aren't the drinking water you sell these waters?"

After some discussion just now, Tan Hongmei's restraint disappeared and she began to communicate with Zhang Yiming in a similar manner.

"Yes, not, first of all, our water can be divided into several types, one is called natural mineral water, the other is called pure water, and even distilled water. Tongyuan County is a coastal city. The salts, including sodium chloride, in the water, are much higher than those in other places. People living in coastal areas have a much higher probability of thyroid diseases than people in ordinary areas. This is common sense. Ordinary people can know that once anything is related to health, the nature of food itself will change. This is what we need to guide consumers. Drinking water is not just to quench thirst, but to make the body healthier."

Zhang Yiming patiently explained the basic concept of drinking water product to Tan Hongmei in easy-to-understand language.

"Xiao Ming, I still think this is unreliable. Besides, even if you really produce drinking water, how much does it cost to sell it? If it were me, I would never spend money to buy water to drink it."

Tan Hongmei's words were convincing and rejected Zhang Yiming's idea in disguise.

"Haha, Sister Tan, it's too early to say this now. I'll ask you, have you ever drunk mountain spring water? The kind of mountain spring water that really seeps out of the underground without any processing?"

"I have drunk it. My hometown is in the mountains. I have basically grown up drinking mountain spring water since I was a child!"

"Which do you think is better than the taste of mountain spring water and tap water, well water, and boiled water?"

"It's still a question, of course it's mountain spring water!"

Zhang Yiming looked at Tan Hongmei and said nothing. After Tan Hongmei finished saying this, she seemed to realize what she said.

"But...but..."
Chapter completed!
