2020 is destined to leave a string of accent marks on the score of history.
Nowadays, the epidemic situation in Beijing has rebounded, but everyone is looking forward to everything returning to normal. However, in reality, some people are happy, and some are worried. A small mask also makes ripples in the world.
Under the epidemic situation, An Youqing has finished her eggs
When masks, a product that costs less than 0.3 yuan, are sold out When the price is sky-high, it seems as if the stock has hit the daily limit as soon as it opens, instantly attracting enough profit-seekers who are eager to get into this circle. Many mask factories have launched crazily; the demand from mask factories has led to the emergence of a large number of melt-blown cloth companies; the increase in the production capacity of melt-blown cloth has also led to the shortage of PP raw materials and testing equipment. On the surface, people only see the clattering money. How do they know that An is safe under the epidemic?
Mask production involves many upstream, midstream and downstream industries, and the risk is obviously higher than that of stocks with price limit rules. Experience tells us that when everyone rushes in, there is a high probability of a collapse.
In a market economy, everything is guided by the relationship between supply and demand.
There is a rumor that “Pork in January, masks in February, machines in March, melt-blown cloth in April , May helmet” jokes like this. Unfortunately, the melt-blown fabric that attracted attention in June is not a good thing…
Following the slow sales of masks and the decline in mask opportunities, the “butterfly effect” has been transmitted to the melt-blown fabric production industry. When the country tightened market rules for meltblown fabrics, many business owners who failed to catch up with the hot spots and hurriedly launched meltblown fabric production equipment watched their investment go to waste, and began to group together to find equipment manufacturers to return goods.
Demark Group located in Huzhou also encountered such a problem. Recently, a large number of people surrounded Demark’s factory. The focus of customer complaints is that the purchased melt-blown cloth production equipment cannot produce products that meet industry standards. After debugging by the manufacturer, it still could not be effectively solved, so a refund was requested. Some of these former customers told the media that the products produced by the equipment were not up to standard due to embrittlement. It is reported that inadequate humidity control of the production environment and the quality of raw materials can also cause product embrittlement problems. Some people speculated that the company had problems based on a few photos of leaders visiting the company. Official background.
According to Blue Whale Finance, lawyer Zhang Jianjian, a partner of Beijing Haiwen Law Firm, once said on this matter: “The market has multiple standards for melt-blown cloth and masks, and different equipment can The products produced are also different, so this matter still depends on how the two parties agree in the contract, including what type and standard products the meltblown cloth machine can produce. If the equipment produced by the manufacturer does not meet the requirements or there are other In case of breach of contract, buyers can safeguard their rights in accordance with the contract and relevant laws. Of course, if there is a quality problem with the equipment, it must be identified by the relevant quality appraisal department. If the buyer’s misjudgment of the market has caused losses, then this is The business risks that buyers should bear when purchasing equipment should not be borne by equipment manufacturers. So the key still depends on the agreement between the two parties in the contract.”
In fact, Germany At the beginning of the year, Mark overcame the extremely shortage of manpower and raw materials and invested hundreds of millions of yuan in the production of meltblown cloth equipment. It also experienced a period of abundant customers. Customers who entered the market earlier did make the first pot of gold. Lagging customers lost this fleeting business opportunity because of the drastic changes in market demand.
Although Demark is actively arranging technical personnel to assist manufacturers in debugging, these manufacturers who have entered the game have realized that even if the equipment is debugged, the expected profits of the company have long been lost. Not to mention that the “speculators” who took out mortgages could not afford the rapidly declining profits. On balance, returning the product seems to be their best solution.
Masks also have “gold content”
In fact, the production of masks seems simple, but it involves many technologies link. Taking the core melt-blown cloth production as an example, this wave of people who have joined the melt-blown cloth industry never imagined that producing products that meet industry standards is not as easy as upgrading and killing monsters.
Every level faced in producing meltblown cloth is not simple.
The first level is purchasing equipment. Meltblown cloth equipment is mostly divided into grades based on width. The wider the model, the higher the production capacity, the higher the technical content, the more stable the production, and of course the higher the price. The investment for small equipment is small, but the potential operational risks are also high. It is best for enterprises to choose equipment that suits their own financial and technical conditions. Just like choosing a car, of course you cannot use the same model for daily urban commuting and dedicated off-road driving.
The second level: material selection. It is also a melt-blown cloth. High-quality products will use higher-priced PP fiber materials, while those who want to make more money will inevitably choose cheap PP drawing materials. Just like when you drive a car with 98# gasoline, if you insist on saving money and add 92# gasoline, the vehicle will vibrate and become weak at worst, or stall and slump in the worst case.
Level 3: Master the technology. Many companies that rush to the market do not have professional personnel and talent reserves, and only rely on equipment manufacturers to debug and simple…Training, just want the machine to produce quickly, how is that possible? This driving requires several months of training and three exams, let alone a production line? The technical content is much more complex. One machine and one adjustment, experience is earned by money and time. A little voltage fluctuation, insufficient current, substandard temperature, and insufficient humidity will greatly reduce your yield rate. Not to mention the core die temperature control and electrostatic electret treatment, which are not technologies that can be fully mastered in a short time.
The fourth level: mentality debugging. There is a very vivid word in the idiom – eager for quick success and instant benefit. The specific meaning does not need to be elaborated. When your original intention deviates, every small error you make will gradually add up to a serious problem. Most of the bitter consequences will have to be swallowed by oneself.
When will the butterfly effect end
Since June, the price of meltblown cloth has dropped by as much as 90%, with Jiangsu, Anhui, Shandong, etc. There has been a wave of returns everywhere. The reason is that most of it is not a problem with the company’s equipment, but the country’s concern for market order and the improvement of industry standards, which have caused huge changes in the market environment. The loss of sales of small-width products has caused conflicts among all parties. Seeing that many companies that entered the game earlier are busy “printing money” after solving technical problems, late entrants have missed the opportunity and must be in no mood to fight.
But in a market economy, both parties to the transaction have an equal and voluntary contractual relationship, and it is free trade supported by laws and systems. A market economy is an economy governed by law, not a planned economy or a monopoly economy. All merits and demerits are left to the professionals to judge.
As the epidemic economy is about to end, I hope that everyone will have more genuine entrepreneurship and hard work and less speculation and profiteering. This is the true meaning of long-lasting economic flowers.
