Chapter 172: Being rich is capricious
"Who said I didn't cry anymore, I cried so much that my liver and intestines were broken, okay!"
Listening to Tang Zifeng lead the conversation to herself, Bao Nana said to Tang Zifeng dissatisfied:
"On the contrary, you are a ruthless senior brother, your own junior sister is going abroad, not only are you not sad at all, but you are also sneering. I've done so many things for you, it's really that what got laid, the matchmaker threw over the wall, it's so undisciplined!"
A few people next to him were chilled. Including Yu Xiaohui, everyone knows that Bao Nana said that she introduced Xiao Wenjun to Tang Zifeng, but she directly claimed that "what went to bed", this scale is a bit big.
Everyone is full of discipline, and it is not suitable to play on this issue, so they can only quickly bow their heads and pretend to eat skewers, only Xiao Wenjun took advantage of everyone's inattention, and reached out viciously to pinch Bao Nana. It was the height of summer, everyone was dressed coolly, Xiao Wenjun wanted to pinch Bao Nana, and there was a place where she could start.
"Ouch! Murder girlfriend!" Bao Nana screamed exaggeratedly, causing the people around her to eat skewers to look at her in surprise.
Xiao Wenjun withdrew his hand and pretended to be fine. Bao Nana glanced at Xiao Wenjun fiercely, but she was embarrassed to pinch back, after all, she had been open-mouthed before, and what she said was indeed a little dirty.
"Senior sister, which school did you go to when you went to the United States?"
Tang Zifeng didn't dwell on Bao Nana's nonsense, but asked a random question in order to get away from the embarrassment just now.
"Pennsylvania, studying Communication. Bao Nana replied.
"Nice school. Tang Zifeng praised.
"Of course. Bao Nana said, "I don't see whose junior sister I am." However, Penn only gave me a half-prize, and two other schools gave me a full prize, but I didn't think they were good, so I turned them down. ”
"Sure enough, being rich is capricious. Tang Zifeng praised again.
In the last two months of school, Bao Nana has no classes, just waiting to do a symbolic graduation thesis defense to get her graduation certificate. She was extremely bored, so she came to Feihai Company to work again, helping to sell a simplified version of "Five Three", and as a result, she earned another 20,000 or 30,000 yuan, which is the confidence that she can refuse the full prize.
"What kind of money, compared to Wen Jun, I am simply destitute, okay? Senior brother, you are too partial, you have helped Wen Jun earn so much money, and you will not help your sister find a chance to make money. Bao Nana complained. She is not a person who lacks heart, she said these words in a low voice, and only Xiao Wenjun and Tang Zifeng can hear them.
Speaking of Xiao Wenjun, he can be said to be the biggest winner in life in this group of people. According to the conditions that Tang Zifeng helped her negotiate with Linyi Machine, Linyi Machine had to pay Xiao Wenjun a patent authorization fee of 100 yuan for each wood carving machine tool produced.
In fact, due to the need for technical confidentiality, Xiao Wenjun's invention of the drawing specification and knife strategy has not yet applied for a patent. Because once you apply for a patent, the technical details must be disclosed to the outside world, and those township enterprises in China will not care whether you have a patent or not, and they will start copycating when they learn about the technical know-how, and they will not have the time to fight a patent lawsuit.
According to Tang Zifeng's plan, it is necessary to wait for Linyi to occupy a large part of the wood carving machine market first, and then start the application for these two patents. Tang Zifeng didn't expect those encryption programs to be kept secret forever, it is estimated that they can last for about half a year, and Linyi has already eaten the fattest meat on the market, and the rest will be kept for playing with other manufacturers.
So far, Linyi has produced more than 500 wood carving machine tools, and there are nearly 1,000 orders in hand. Tang Zifeng settled the authorization fee for Xiao Wenjun once, and took 100,000 yuan from Linyi Machine. According to the agreement, Feihai Company raised 20,000 yuan as a commission, and the remaining 80,000 yuan went to Xiao Wenjun's hands.
got the patent authorization fee of 80,000 yuan, Xiao Wenjun was shocked. She told her father Xiao Ming about the matter over the phone and asked Xiao Ming for instructions on what to do. Xiao Ming called Qin Zhongnian again and asked if there was any violation of the policy in this matter, and whether Qin Zhongnian offered Xiao Wenjun a high price for the sake of his old classmates.
Qin Zhongnian could only tell the truth, saying that this technology was Tang Zifeng's idea, Xiao Wenjun completed the design, and it was Tang Zifeng who negotiated the price with Linyi on behalf of Xiao Wenjun. Qin Zhongnian also admitted that the licensing fee of 100 yuan per machine is actually low, and it is estimated that the Linyi machine is also acceptable if it is opened to 200 or 300, because this kind of machine tool has created five or six million profits for the Linyi machine, and this is just the beginning.
"Why is it Tang Zifeng again?" Xiao Ming muttered on the other end of the phone.
"Old Xiao, this is ...... Alas!" Qin Zhongnian didn't know what to say.
Xiao Ming actually pretended to be reserved in front of Qin Zhongnian. After understanding what happened, he was very excited, after all, his daughter was able to come up with a technology that Qin Zhongnian was interested in, and it was a glorious thing for an old machine tool company like Linyi to pay patent fees willingly.
As for the black hand that appeared in this matter, that is, the little young assistant named Tang Zifeng, in Xiao Ming's mind, it was definitely not a hateful image, but a little cute. He suspected that his daughter's ability to come up with those designs should have been inspired by Tang Zifeng. Tang Zifeng can help his daughter find an opportunity to make money, or such a lofty opportunity, it seems that it is not an exaggeration to call him a "good son-in-law".
Xiao Ming, who was in a happy mood, called his daughter back and said that the money was earned by his ability and could be taken openly. The family doesn't need a daughter's subsidy, so she can keep the money in her hands and use it well. Haven't you always wanted to buy a notebook, then buy it, pick the best one, notebooks are things for studying, and spending some money is also deserved.
This time, Xiao Wenjun came to Linhe with his new notebook. This IBM notebook is worth more than 40,000 yuan, which Xiao Wenjun once coveted but never dared to ask, who knows that now his dream has come true.
"Wen Jun's money is earned by technology, and you don't know how to design machine tools, how can I help you create money-making opportunities?" Tang Zifeng asked Bao Nana with a smile.
Bao Nana said: "I can write press releases, and I can also do interviews. By the way, after I go to the United States, how about finding you business information in the United States? You have to pay me the highest standard for the information fee. ”
Tang Zifeng's heart moved, and said: "When you say this, I really remember." What kind of machine tools are needed in the American market, although we have some information channels, I always feel that it is not down-to-earth enough. After you go to the United States, if you have the opportunity, you can contact ordinary American families for us and see what kind of mechanical products they use every day, not necessarily machine tools, as long as we can build them, you can pass the information to me. If the information is useful, I can't do you any good. ”
"You mean American families?" Xiao Wenjun asked in surprise next to him.
Tang Zifeng said: "Yes. As Nana, if you want to understand the needs of the enterprise, I am afraid it is impossible to do it. But there are actually a lot of DIY people in American families, and I have the impression that ...... Uh, I mean I've seen some information that says that there is a very high demand for home machine tools in the United States, especially all kinds of woodworking machine tools, and the price is not high, which is one or two thousand dollars a piece, but the demand is huge. Americans are stupid and have a lot of money, and if you don't make money by letting their money go, I'm sorry for the 5,000-year history of civilization. ”
The "impression" that Tang Zifeng said was actually the news he heard in later generations. Labor costs in the United States are high, and many Americans are accustomed to doing their own home repairs, electrical appliances and even car repairs, which requires a variety of small tools, including some small drilling machines, sawing machines, lathes, and so on. These small machine tools are small in size, low in frequency of use, and do not require high durability, so the cost is relatively low, and it is a gadget that every household can afford.
It is not a large expenditure for American families, such as one or two thousand dollars, which is more than 10,000 yuan in RMB. If you can export 10,000 such small machine tools a year, there will be an output value of more than 100 million, and Tang Zifeng will not dislike such a business.
If it weren't for the fact that the factory was not rich, and Zhou Heng had no ambition to open up overseas markets for the time being, Tang Zifeng would like to take people to the United States to inspect the small household machine tool market in the United States. Now Tobao Nana is going to work as an informant for herself, which is actually the next idle move. If Bao Nana can really bring him any useful information, it will be a surprise. Even if Bao Nana didn't hear anything, Tang Zifeng didn't lose anything, and it was only Bao Nana who suffered.
Who made Bao Nana claim to be Tang Zifeng's sister every day, isn't the sister used to be a free laborer?
Tang Zifeng was secretly having fun there, but Bao Nana saw it. She cried with a sad face and said to Xiao Wenjun: "Wenjun, you see that your family style is smiling there again, you must be calculating me again." ”
Xiao Wenjun stretched out two fingers and made a gesture to pinch Nana. Bao Nana hurriedly dodged with a smile, hugged Tang Ziyan and whispered. Xiao Wenjun looked at Tang Zifeng and asked in a low voice, "Senior Brother Tang, do you really plan to stay in Linyi for a long time?"
"Why do you ask that?" Tang Zifeng said in surprise. Wang Zijie asked him like this just now, why did Xiao Wenjun ask like this in a blink of an eye, did he seem very dedicated tonight?
Hey, don't you seem very dedicated tonight?
"It's not anymore, it's just in his position, seeking his own government, and being able to help Linyi find more business, it's always good. Even if I transfer back to the ministry, at least the fat man and Xiaohui are still on the same plane, even if I don't plan for myself, I have to plan for them. Tang Zifeng explained.
Xiao Wenjun glanced at Yu Xiaohui, who always had a smile on his face, then picked up the beer glass in front of him, took a sip of beer, and said faintly: "Well, you are right, it is also a kind of happiness to be able to help others plan some things." ”
