Based on the data and requirements An Wuyang had provided, Liang Boyang found the whole thing outrageous!
If Liang Boyang hadn't already confirmed that Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group really existed, he might even have suspected that An Wuyang was deliberately messing with him.
"Can't you make it with a shallow bottom?" An Wuyang asked.
"For example, a round can with a diameter of ten centimeters and a height of five centimeters. Most of its interior would be hollow, with only a shallow oval bottom inside. Even at its deepest point, it wouldn't exceed one centimeter." An Wuyang presented more specific requirements.
As for the ten-milliliter capacity?
That actually didn't matter much. An Wuyang's earlier wording hadn't been clear. The ten-milliliter capacity he mentioned wasn't an absolute capacity. After all, Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group would be responsible for filling the containers. Even if the container held twenty or thirty milliliters, Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group could simply fill it with ten milliliters.
However, the cosmetic container's total capacity couldn't be absurdly large, making the ten milliliters of product look pitifully small.
For example, if the container had an inner diameter of ten centimeters and an inner depth of five centimeters, its total capacity would reach 392 milliliters. If only ten milliliters of cream were filled into it, wouldn't that be ridiculous?
"It can be done, but it's relatively difficult to manufacture. Based on my experience, the yield rate for a product like this would be relatively low," Liang Boyang replied tactfully.
An Wuyang understood the implication. A low yield rate meant higher costs, which meant a higher price.
"Based on your experience, what kind of cosmetic container do you think we should customize?" An Wuyang asked.
The other party was a professional, so he should be able to offer more professional advice, right?
"Based on the suggestion you just made, Mr. An, I recommend reducing the container's diameter to around six centimeters. That's the diameter of a soda can, and it's very comfortable for people to hold." Liang Boyang first offered his initial suggestion.
"Next is the shape of the container. Regarding the shallow-bottom design you mentioned, we could actually take soda cans as a reference as well. Most soda cans have a concave, curved bottom, and we can make that too." Liang Boyang once again referred to soda cans.
"Mr. An's requirement is a ten-milliliter capacity. If we choose another conventional container shape, with an inner diameter of six centimeters, neither a square nor a rectangle, or even a cylinder, would be a good choice," Liang Boyang added.
"But using the concave, curved design of a soda can's bottom would be a very natural choice, and it wouldn't look stingy." Liang Boyang continued.
"For example, with an inner diameter of six centimeters, we would only need to sink the curved depression to a depth of 1.5 centimeters to create a space with a total volume of approximately 11.7 milliliters." This time, Liang Boyang used a calculator to calculate the volume of the spherical cap more precisely.
Liang Boyang added again, "Also, after the cosmetics have been used up, this shape could even be reused as an ashtray."
An Wuyang imagined what the container would look like. It seemed that it really could be used as an ashtray?
"Can you make a few samples?" An Wuyang asked.
Liang Boyang replied confidently, "Of course! However, we hope to receive a business cooperation letter from Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group."
An Wuyang agreed directly. "All right. After work starts tomorrow, I'll contact you again using Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group's landline, and I'll send you a business cooperation letter bearing Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group's official seal by courier."
An Wuyang could understand Liang Boyang's caution. After all, with just a few casual words from him, Liang Boyang would have to spend time, manpower, and raw materials making samples. What if An Wuyang was just looking for amusement?
That was why Liang Boyang wanted a business cooperation letter from Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group, so he could have some assurance.
Hearing An Wuyang's explanation, Liang Boyang let out a sigh of relief. "Then I'll trouble you, President An."
"It's getting late. We'll contact each other again tomorrow." An Wuyang indicated that he intended to end the call.
"I look forward to your call, President An," Liang Boyang replied politely.
After waiting for An Wuyang to hang up, Liang Boyang's son, Liang Yu, spoke first. "Dad, I found some information about Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group online. It's a large pharmaceutical company with annual sales exceeding a hundred million Xia Guo Yuan."
"It's actually a company that big?" Liang Boyang exclaimed in surprise.
His wife, Lin Qinglan, said worriedly, "Can we handle a project like this?"
Liang Boyang replied confidently, "We definitely can!"
"I'll draw up the design first. Xiaoyu, come help me take a look too." Liang Boyang called out to him.
"All right, Dad," Liang Yu answered.
When Liang Boyang began working, An Wuyang opened Doule again. He had just received a hundred thousand Xia Guo Yuan worth of Doule Diamonds for free through the Happy Life System, and he wondered whether he should spend some of them on Doule.
Although the Happy Life System hadn't restricted An Wuyang from converting the Doule Diamonds into cash, if he wanted to cash out a mere hundred thousand Xia Guo Yuan worth of Doule Diamonds, he would probably only get seventy or eighty thousand back at most.
More importantly, cashing them out was troublesome. He would not only need to advertise and help deliver gifts on behalf of others, but also spend a great deal of time waiting for people who needed that service.
With that kind of energy and time, An Wuyang felt that he could earn more!
Therefore, An Wuyang preferred to use those Doule Diamonds to satisfy his own emotional needs.
An Wuyang opened Doule's livestream channel and casually started browsing. After only a few swipes, he came across a livestream of an elderly person kneeling, and he immediately ignored it.
It wasn't that An Wuyang lacked mercy or sympathy. Rather, he hated this kind of moral blackmail.
More importantly, An Wuyang knew that behind livestreams like this, there were usually people hiding behind the scenes and planning everything. Those people exploited people's sympathy and compassion. They were the most disgusting kind of people!
An Wuyang swiped past several more dancing streams, but he still had no intention of stopping.
What was so interesting about watching people dance?
Especially watching dancing through a screen—was it really entertaining?
If he wanted to watch dancing, he could simply go to a dance-performance restaurant, or a business KTV. He could even recruit some students from a dance academy to perform for him in person.
An Wuyang preferred singing streamers, especially those who sang well.
After filtering through the options for a while, he finally found a streamer with a beautiful singing voice after about ten minutes.
When An Wuyang came across this streamer named "Xiao Qingyu," she was passionately singing Heart of Fire, the opening theme from a hit television series that had aired several years earlier.
The reason she made An Wuyang stay was simple: her singing voice was beautiful!
An Wuyang really liked her vocal tone, and he also liked how seriously she took her singing.
