Bao Zixuan, who had been in retreat in the office for a day, finally thought of the next priority development direction of the Black Cloud Group, and he was ready to make children's money to the end.

Black Cloud Toys currently has only one fist product, Transformers, although it has caused a storm of Autobots around the world. But all children can't like a toy, and toy products must be innovated and upgraded in time.

Now comic companies produce a large number of copyrights every day, and Heiyun Toys can make good use of the benefits brought by these copyrights, but Bao Zixuan has no idea of producing plush toys by himself, after all, this is not very compatible with technology companies.

Many plush toys are produced by other factories, and Bao Zixuan did not think of setting up a toy factory in Xiangjiang. The land price and labor are not very cost-effective, so I can only wait two years to build a factory in the mainland.

Bao Zixuan's next plan has been thought of, that is, to go to Europe to find two toys that have not yet been taken seriously, and get their authorization, no matter how much it costs.

Hungary is still a Warsaw Pact country, and it was difficult to come here as the Heungjiang Company of the Black Cloud Group. However, with the deepening of the business between the Black Cloud Group and the entire Warsaw Pact countries, it has also expanded its business here.

Bao Zixuan took his bodyguard and Yamashita Hengyi to the Budapest School of Architecture in Hungary by plane, originally wanted Yamashita Hengyi to lead the team, after all, it was just a small project. But thinking that now he is just a young man who has graduated from college for less than a year, and he is promoted by himself, so he must be taken on a ride; as for the future, it will depend on his own strength and hard work.

Yamashita Hengyi was very excited, after all, he was on a business trip with the president. Very excited along the way. Seeing this, Bao Zixuan thought to himself that he was still a young man's mentality, and he didn't know if it was right for him to pull out the seedlings and help them grow.

Bao Zixuan's time this time was only scheduled for a week, after all, it was Li Yulin's birthday at the end of this month, and he had never given his mother a good birthday, so he had to make up for it this time, so the time was very tight.

In a café in Budapest, Bao Zixuan met the person he was going to meet, Professor Ernaux Rubick of the Pudapest School of Architecture.

Erno Rubik, born 13 July 1944, is a Hungarian inventor, sculptor and professor of architecture. He is known to the world because he invented the Rubik's Cube, a mechanical educational toy, in 1974. Soon, Magic became popular all over the world, and there were many variations, and he was also known as the "father of the Rubik's Cube". In addition, interesting intellectual toys such as Rubic 360, magic board, magic watch, and magic ruler are also from him.

The Rubik's Cube, also known as the Rubik Cube, is called the Magic Cubes in Taiwan, and is called the Twist Dice in Hong Kong. Rubik's Cube racing is an extreme hand sport.

The purpose of Bao Zixuan's trip is to come for the Rubik's Cube, which in the usual sense refers to the third-order Rubik's Cube in the narrow sense. The third-order Rubik's Cube shape is usually a cube and is made of elastic hard plastic. The regular racing game is to scramble the Rubik's Cube and then restore it in the shortest possible time.

Bao Zixuan is going to produce this magical toy that exercises his intelligence, and when he looks at the father of the Rubik's Cube, Ernor Rubik is also looking at her.

Bao Zixuan smiled and said to Ernaux Rubik, "Hello, Professor Rubik. I'm Bao Zixuan, from Xiangjiang. I'm interested in a patent that I want to pay for and promote it around the world. ”

After hearing Bao Zixuan's name, Ernaux-Rubik suddenly thought of something and said: "You are Bao Zixuan of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the proposer of the Industry 4.0 theory. ”

In fact, what Bao Zixuan didn't know was that he was now a model of entrepreneurial success in front of the world. However, in the academic circle, his Industry 4.0 theory can attract the attention of the majority of scholars. Many universities in Europe and the United States have discussed his theory, and many universities have defined Industry 4.0 as a subject direction.

Bao Zixuan: "Yes, I didn't expect Professor Rubic to know me, it's my honor." ”

Professor Rubik: "I think you're here for the Rubic Cube, to be honest, it's just a small toy, why are many companies optimistic about him!"

Bao Zixuan: "You are an artist, and you don't know much about commercial things. I'll give your rubic cube a nice name – the Rubik's Cube. This Rubik's Cube will become an ideal toy for children to develop their intelligence, and greatly improve their interest in mathematics and spatial stereoscopy. ”

Professor Rubik: "The Rubik's Cube is a very apt big name, and there is a company in Budapest that has already sold 10 million forints, and I didn't say yes. I think the price is too low. ”

10 million forints is also around 100,000 US dollars, Bao Zixuan knows it. But at the same time, he regretted it a little, I told you what the Rubik's Cube does, if the cooperation is not successful, don't I help the opponent to provide ideas!

Bao Zixuan: "The price is negotiable, after all, I want to cooperate with you for a long time." You must know that the Hungarian company does not have the ability to bring the Rubik's Cube to the world, but the Black Cloud Group fully meets this condition. ”

Professor Rubik: "How much money are you willing to contribute, and how can you continue to cooperate in the long term." ”

Bao Zixuan: "I don't like to be entangled in negotiating the price, I will only make an offer once, I can sign the contract, if not, I will leave." $600,000 and you will be commissioned to design a piece of art. ”

"Heiyun Group's infrastructure project this year has been designed, and I promise you the right to design a building in Xiangjiang. 6 years time limit, if I break my word. I'm paying you $200,000 in compensation. ”

"At the same time, I hope that you should research and develop more Rubik's cubes. And you can develop other things that interest you. ”

Hearing the $600,000, Professor Rubik was a little stupid, after all, he had given him a maximum of 3 million forints before, and he said that 10 million was just to raise his value.

He was an architecture professor after all, and he was thrilled to hear that he could dominate the design of a building. If it is well designed, it can go down in history.

Professor Rubik: "It's really $600,000, you're not kidding. ”

The overall income level in Hungary is not very high, even university professors are only half the income level of the average American worker.

Bao Zixuan: "It's not $600,000, it's $1 million, and I'm going to commission you to design a building, and the design fee is $400,000." If I don't commission you to design, I will compensate you $200,000. Either way, you'll receive $800,000. As for your other inventions in the future, I will decide his price based on the performance of the product in the market. ”

Rubik has talked to many people about the authorization of the Rubik's Cube, but none of them have Bao Zixuan. In the past, the people who came to negotiate were all local Hungarian companies, and they basically had no strength, even if they had the strength, it was difficult to sell the Rubik's Cube to the world, and the black cloud was because of the trade with the Soviet Union, and then opened up the markets and contacts of many Warsaw Pact countries, so that he could meet Professor Rubik directly.

Professor Rubik: "At the price you said, the Rubik's Cube is yours." ”

At this time, the lawyer who had been waiting in the café for a long time drafted the contract according to what the two people had agreed.

When Bao Zixuan came to Hungary, he used Larry Brown to find a lawyer who was familiar with patent law.

After signing the contract, Bao Zixuan went to the Hungarian National Savings Bank and remitted $600,000 to Professor Rubik's account.

With the contract, Bao Zixuan asked the lawyer appointed by Larry Brown to apply for a patent for the Rubik's Cube all over the world, and Professor Rubik only applied for a patent in Hungary in the previous life, and then he did not get any real benefits, and now in the hands of the Black Cloud Group, this situation is impossible to happen. In the future, no one except Heiyun Toy Company will be allowed to produce Rubik's Cube, and if you want to produce it, you will have to pay royalties.

After explaining the next R&D direction of Professor Rubik, Bao Zixuan is going to the next country in Europe.
