Now: Cosmetics men should probably doubt whether Dabao is a profit-making product? NO.

The cosmetics here refer to imported high-end products.

The retail price of SK-II's famous fairy water in China is 560 yuan, while its manufacturing cost is only 6.5 yuan.

Are you surprised? Even if R&D costs are added in, the cost per order does not exceed RMB 10.

Shiseido’s 650 yuan/50g eye cream even costs less than 10 yuan in packaging.

The low-end eye creams from Oubelai, which cost about 150 yuan, cost only about 3 yuan.

Ten years ago: When I was a child, I often wondered, since tobacco is so harmful to people, why not the country directly legislates to ban it.

Now it seems that this is a very naive idea.

You can check China’s annual tax list. Tobacco is definitely a big player.

As we all know, the best-performing company in the United States over the past few years is Philip Morris Tobacco, and this is true all over the world.

The second of the top ten profit-making industries in China is now: daily necessities. Among them, personal cleaning chemicals are the most profitable.

Take toothpaste as an example. The cost of the most expensive ingredient, the foaming agent, is only about 600 yuan/ton or even lower. This 600 yuan foaming agent can fill 6,000 pieces of the largest 180-gram toothpaste.

The cost of the remaining active ingredients is negligible. The cost per ton of calcium carbonate powder is only about 120 yuan. The active ingredient of the most advanced fluoride toothpaste, sodium monofluorophosphate, costs only 100 yuan per ton.

Ten years ago: Financial industry banks In China, due to the relative monopoly of the financial industry, it directly led to huge profits in the financial industry.

In the industry classification of Shenyin Wanguo, the average return on net assets of listed companies in the financial industry over the past ten years has been as high as 14.46%.

This is not surprising. If you look at the interest rate difference between bank deposits and loans, there are probably few countries in the world that surpass China.

The third of the top ten profit-making industries in China is now: Beverage non-carbonated juice drinks have the highest profit. A juice drink with a market retail price of 2 yuan including packaging cost + equipment cost is only 7 cents, while canned drinks are even lower, only 5 cents.

money.

Ten years ago: Oil and natural gas In essence, oil and natural gas are the wealth left by our ancestors to all mankind. However, due to various reasons, only a few large companies are engaged in this industry.

Drill a hole and pump out the oil from the ground and sell it for money. Anyone can become a billionaire by giving such a good thing. You will know it when you look at the Middle East.

If you don’t go to the Middle East, you can see the extravagance and luxury of PetroChina and Sinopec in China. It will be even clearer if you look at the daily pocket money of the sentenced CEO of PetroChina.

The fourth of the top ten profit-making industries in China is now: Liquor. Take Wuliangye Distillery as an example. Each ton of grain can produce about 100 catties of liquor. Among them, 10 catties of the best quality are Wuliangye, and the rest are used as Wuliangchunla,

Liuyang Hela is similar to low-end products.

The purchase price of each ton of grain is about 1,600 yuan, and the retail price of the produced products on the market can reach up to about 15,000 yuan.

Don't believe the so-called N-year aging of some liquors. Manufacturers don't have the patience to actually age them. They just use modern industrial catalysts to speed up the fermentation process.

Ten Years Ago: Publishing Industry China’s publishing industry was also under control.

There are less than 1,000 publishers in China, a country with 1.3 billion people, and more than 2,000 publishers in Taiwan, with more than 20 million people.

So much so that publishing has degenerated to the point where one can live a well-off life just by selling book numbers.

The chaos in China’s publishing industry is similar to that of Chinese football.

The fifth of the top ten profit-making industries in China is now: imported drugs. Everyone knows the huge profits of imported drugs.

In the eyes of ordinary people, imported drugs should be the most profitable.

But this is not the case.

Compared with the above industries, the equipment, factory buildings and R&D costs of imported drugs are much higher, so they can only be ranked fifth.

The formulation research and development of imported drugs is generally carried out abroad, resulting in higher research and development costs.

Although its active ingredients are not worth a few bucks, the manufacturers' frequent innovations are real.

Ten years ago: Liquor Moutai has become a collectible. Friends who are interested can check out the financial statements of Moutai, Wuliangye and Luzhou Laojiao, especially their gross profit margins, which are scary.

Like Maotai, something that costs 10 yuan sells for 1,000 yuan, and rich people are still rushing to buy it.

The same is true for Shandong's sesame fragrance. If you don't believe it, ask the relevant people! Six of China's top ten profit-making industries are now: health care products are an old friend of the Chinese people. From Sun God to Melatonin, there has never been a health care product

It can really achieve its publicity effect.

The health products listed here refer to products that are truly produced by regular manufacturers with regular formulas, and are not fake or shoddy products.

Ten years ago: There are two reasons why ordinary people look down on medicine. One is that medicines are too expensive, and the other is that doctors are too shameless and specialize in prescribing high-priced medicines and taking kickbacks.
