So Doting Her Daughter'S Shoes.

If I had a pair of shoes that would change, how nice it would be!

Change your sandals and change.

Change the color of slippers and change colors, like Sun Wukong.

One day in 2010, my daughter made an unwittingly remark.

Cai Zhiyang, who has been designing for many years, turned to the research and development of the assembled shoes. After 4 years of hard work, Cai Zhiyang successfully developed the assembled shoes last year, giving the shoes a new attribute of "toys".

In December 2014, he set up his own company as a "customer" and entered the Taiwan business district this year.

Give up traditional processing plants and develop children's shoes.

In Cai Zhiyang's office, the reporter saw this creative "assembled" shoes.

Under the demonstration of Cai Zhiyang, a pair of children's shoes were realized by assembling, "one shoe and four wear".

Cai Zhiyang introduced that the product of jigsaw shoes is currently concentrated in the summer children's shoes. There are eight colors for children's shoes and shoes. One pair of shoes is equipped with two uppers. The upper can be detached and spliced freely to achieve the free pformation of sandals, slippers and toys.

Moreover, children can assemble shoes as long as they do their own work, which not only realizes children's shoes' dream of pformation, but also exercises their children's practical ability.

"Because this type of shoes does not use glue at all, the shoes can be put into the washing machine directly after being dismantled, and do not worry that the shoes will be degumming. It is simple and convenient, so that children can wear clean shoes every day."

Cai Zhiyang said later that they will also develop autumn winter children's shoes and adult shoes.

Before researching and developing children's shoes, Cai Zhiyang once opened factories and made shoes for 10 years.

As a link in the bottom industry chain of shoes industry, Cai Zhiyang believes that there is not much technology content in shoe processing. The development of enterprises depends largely on the outside world, and there is little room for growth in the future. With the development of 3D printing and intelligent manufacturing, the enterprises who simply produce shoes as the income will be more difficult to survive.

For more than 10 years, Cai Zhiyang has been exploring how to get out of the path of innovation.

Only one pair of shoes for my daughter in 4 years.

Speaking of the original intention of R & D shoes, Cai Zhiyang said it would be grateful to her daughter.

One day 5 years ago, the daughter's inadvertent "if shoes could be better", it gave him inspiration.

With years of experience in shoe design and development, he is determined to realize his daughter's desire and design a pair of shoes that will "change" for her.

Cai Zhiyang collected data from various sources and studied the design. "It takes only 15 days for someone else's shoes to open a mold, and I spent 3 years on this mold."

Despite all the difficulties, Cai Zhiyang did not give up. He consulted with experts and friends of shoe materials to overcome difficulties encountered in the process of development, and finally tried to find the right materials.

However, due to the production process problems, glue is needed for new materials to achieve good connection.

Glue is not environmentally friendly and unhealthy, which he can not tolerate.

Because of his stubbornness, several shoe factories refused to cooperate with him. Some friends began to persuade him to give up, but he recognized that health is the key.

In this way, he persisted in his idea and finally moved a shoe factory. He was willing to cooperate with his research and development, played countless samples, tried many ways, and created new techniques.

In 2014, he finally harvested shoes that would change.

Over the past four years, Cai Zhiyang has invested about 500000 yuan in research and development of shoes, which is not considered the time cost of research and development.

In his words, "only one sentence for a daughter, 4 years to make a pair of shoes".

In May this year, the first batch of shoes exported to the United States was sold to the United States, and the retail price of the market was about $70.

He disclosed that the product is expected to be available in the domestic market next year. Besides the existing slippers and sandals, it will also add new autumn and winter money.

At present, the children's shoes have been awarded more than 20 invention patents and utility models.

The national patent and patented technology, which is the first in the country, not only guarantees children's safety and health, but also reduces the damage to the production environment for the front-line manufacturers.

Building Internet design platform with Internet + thinking

In fact, it wasn't until last December that Cai Zhiyang set up a spelling company and put it on the market with the brand of "fighting baby".

The product is mainly designed for children aged 0 to 12 with simple fashion.

"No glue environmental protection, happy assembly, one shoe more wear" becomes the biggest selling point of the product.

"Compared with traditional shoes, the production process of assembled shoes is much simpler, which saves about half of the process from equipment production to manual labor.

And assembly is very simple, consumers can install themselves, can be exported by semi-finished products, not only shorten the production time, but also save the cost of packaging and taxes and fees.

Cai Zhiyang said.

For the whole industry, a significant advantage of assembling shoes is the realization of "zero inventory", which is the urgent problem for all traditional shoe companies.

The huge advantages of production cost and labor cost have led Cai Zhiyang to see the huge potential for development.

The "assembled" shoe market that he has locked up has been favored by many investors. In May this year, he received 1 million yuan of angel investment funds, which provided strong support for the company's subsequent development.

In June this year, Cai Zhiyang and his team took part in the 2015 China new media entrepreneurship competition. On the salon of the competition, they made a guest road show to endorse their project and won the applause of the investors and the organizing committee.

Cai Zhiyang said, at present, the company's products are mainly exported to foreign trade, and by collaborate with agents, the core technology of shoes collation is controlled by the company itself, and other production and export links are outsourced to other enterprises.

Looking forward to the future, Cai Zhiyang hopes to build a network design platform with the help of Internet + thinking, integrate all the innovative ideas, and put these ideas into practice for shoe research and development.

And he hopes that the company can specialize in technology export, focus on the research and development of shoes, constantly introduce new products, "achieve new products on month and month" to provide consumers with excellent quality and innovative design of "shoes" products.
