Chapter 068: Post-It
On December 3, 3M's glue samples arrived at Kai Tak Airport through air parcels, and after Zhang Heng took them back to the factory, he arranged for Uncle Li to start the test.
Paper, paste, compact, put in an oven or humidifier, and conduct long-term simulations at various temperatures and humidities to observe the degree of adhesion and ease of peeling.
He Jie, who was also worried about Daheng's dismal performance, took the initiative to participate and was responsible for recording the experimental data and results.
Zhang Heng paid attention to the progress of experiments every day, and spent most of the rest of his time in books borrowed from the Chinese University Library: Fundamentals of Analog Circuits, Fundamentals of Digital Circuits, Semiconductor Physics, Assembly Language, and Algorithm Analysis.
These lessons that he had learned in his previous life and were almost forgotten were revisited at this time, and he learned quickly, and many details and knowledge points that he had not noticed back then frequently brought him small surprises.
Zhang Heng will not take the route of a technical bull who is pure to the end, he wants to take the route of his classmates.
When he started in the 70s, he needed the technical skills to convince others in order to build a team, and when the company was on the right track, he would turn to strategic planning and business management.
That's where his greatest strength lies.
In the chip and related electronics manufacturing industry, a big bull may be able to create amazing miracles, but it is impossible to maintain glory forever.
It's a capital- and technology-intensive industry that requires the brainpower of countless people and a huge amount of money to make continuous progress and make super-profits.
"Xiao Heng, this is our latest achievement, I think it should meet your requirements. This is the second week of getting the glue, Bai Jie came in with a small yellow sticker, looked at the pile of foreign books in front of Zhang Heng, and was secretly happy in her heart.
Zhang Heng tore off a piece of paper and pasted it on a book, the piece of paper stuck steadily, and after a while, he tore it off and pasted it elsewhere.
After repeating it several times, he nodded with satisfaction: "Write down this production parameter, let Uncle Li design and manufacture the first assembly line, and produce 100,000 copies according to this size first, and then calculate the cost." ”
He Jie nodded and hesitated, "Can this thing be sold?"
"Believe me, Sister He, don't underestimate this little thing, it will go into all the offices in the world!" Zhang Heng smiled confidently.
"I trust you, I'll keep them secret, it's too easy to imitate. He Jie said worriedly.
"Well, just do it, and I'll apply for a patent right away, and no one will dare to copy it then." Zhang Heng said with a smile.
The sales area of this product will be developed in Europe and the United States, but I am really not worried about someone copying, as for the rise of the third world in the future, the patent period should have passed early.
After He Jie went out to continue to be busy, Zhang Heng picked up the phone.
"Yo, I didn't expect you to look like something in the office. An hour later, Jessie rushed to the printing house and quipped as soon as she entered the office, "But why is it so cold that there is not even a female secretary?"
As soon as she finished speaking, He Jie knocked on the door and came in to bring her coffee, and then continued to return to the workshop to get busy.
"No, such a big beauty, you let her go to the workshop as a worker?" Jiexi was surprised.
"Don't talk nonsense, Sister He is my neighbor and Sister Xia Di, and I happened to be free at this stage and came here to help. Zhang Heng hurriedly stopped her divergent thinking.
"Boss Zhang, do you have something to do with me, I just returned to Xiangjiang yesterday and haven't recovered yet. Jiexi said pitifully.
"I'll give you more commissions, by the way, Sister Xia Di, they can adapt, right?"
"These three women are crazy!" Jessie looked shocked.
After the three of them arrived in Frankfurt, as soon as they settled down, they immediately entered the Keniski company to receive professional training in the washing dragon.
When they were almost used to the busy study and local life, Jiexi returned immediately.
Zhang Heng put his mind at ease, picked up the yellow sticker and handed it over.
"What is this?" Jiexi quickly discovered its usage, had a lot of fun, and pasted a newspaper post all over Zhang Heng's desk, then raised his head and asked with a smile, "This thing is very useful, you came to me for this?"
"Yes, I need you to register patents and trademarks for it, and don't let go of all the developed countries and regions in the world that can apply!"
"There's no need. She casually played with the little sticker, "Although this thing is very practical, but it is not very valuable, you are not afraid of wasting the registration fee?"
"Maybe it's not expensive per unit, but I believe it will create a new office category, and it's a long-lasting category. Zhang Heng said with confidence.
"Okay, you're the boss, the money is yours, why should I save money for you, I make money if you spend money, should." Jiexi spread her hands.
"The first thing you have to do is go to the United States and help me sign the exclusive authorization of the glue patent. Zhang Heng took out the relevant information sent by 3M.
Jiexi read it carefully, frowned, and said: "3M's patent is the leading patent of your patent, and there may be risks in it." ”
"So this exclusive power of attorney must be signed, and I will try to make other plans as much as possible. Zhang Heng nodded.
If 3M uses this glue to develop imitation products, this lawsuit will really be fought, and he already has a preliminary plan for prevention, and will start working when the preliminary work is over.
Jiexi didn't say anything more, discussed the itinerary with him, and after everything was finalized, she asked, "By the way, trademarks?"
"The English trademark Post-It, Chinese is called a post. Zhang Heng wrote two lines on a sticker, tore them off and pasted them in her notebook.
"Well, it's very convenient, and when your product is launched, I will recommend it to my colleagues in the firm." Jessie smiled.
"Thank you very much. Zhang Heng smiled and nodded, through word of mouth among users, this is the starting road of the newspaper post in the previous life.
"I also need a copy of your factory's license and a letter of authorization. ”
Zhang Heng thought for a while and said, "Jiexi, I want to set up another offshore company to hold all the patents and trademark rights in the future, and all production plants need to be authorized by this company." ”
Offshore company?
Patent licensing?
How could this young teenager understand so much?
Jiexi looked at Zhang Heng in surprise, and said after a while: "Do you want to avoid taxes reasonably?"
"This is only one aspect, on the other hand, I hope that in the future, I can develop more partners through the licensing model in order to quickly develop the market. Zhang Heng said lightly.
Jiexi agreed, signed an entrustment agreement with Zhang Heng, took all his information and documents, and received a cash check for 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, and got up to leave.
When she was about to walk out of the door, Zhang Heng said: "By the way, Jiexi, maybe you can consider coming down to my company as a full-time lawyer, and I can pay the highest salary in the industry." ”
"Let's wait until your postpost is successful. She didn't look back.
PS: Today 918, my grandfather's younger brother is a little soldier of the New Fourth Army, who died in the Yixing ambush during the encirclement and suppression of the Japanese army.
May the Chinese martyrs be able to smile and look at each other, and may the Chinese people no longer suffer so much.
