Of course, Yu Lihong would not have any conditions to negotiate with the US military, Qin Hai returned to his room, dialed a long-distance across the ocean to China, and directly dialed it to Ji Mingchu's office.

Qin Hai knew Ji Ming Chu because of the matter of No. 98 steel, after Qin Hai intervened in the work of the 33rd Institute of the Navy, the research and development of No. 98 steel progressed smoothly, and some phased results have been achieved, and Ji Ming Chu was very satisfied with this. In the past, Ji Mingchu would often ask his secretary to inform Qin Hai to come to his office to sit down and chat with Qin Hai about equipment construction. Qin Hai's erudition was deeply appreciated by Ji and Ming Dynasty, and the friendship between the two of them became deeper and deeper, and it was time for them to talk about some things casually.

This time, when it came to dealing with the US military, Qin Hai naturally wanted to ask Ji Mingchu for instructions and listen to what the old general's opinions were. After all, dealing with foreign troops is a relatively sensitive matter, and if you don't say hello to the Chinese military in advance, I'm afraid you will cause some trouble.

"Ji Lao, there is such a thing, I want to report to you......" Qin Hai concisely introduced the matter of the US military's contact with him to Ji Mingchu, and finally said: "Look, can we provide them with this super filter membrane, and if we want to provide them with it, what reciprocal return do they need to make?" ”

"You're in France now?" Ji Mingchu asked.

"Yes, I'm still in Le Havre." Qin Hai said.

"Tell me your address in Le Havre." Ji Mingchu said.

"Address?" Qin Hai was a little inexplicable, but since Ji Mingchu asked for this, he also reported the name of the hotel and the room number. As he spoke, another person on the other end of the phone could be heard whispering a retelling, presumably the secretary of Ji Mingchu, because the name of the hotel here was spelled in English. The old general himself certainly couldn't remember it.

"Okay, you go and do something else first, and then call me in the evening." After Ji Mingchu finished writing down the address, he instructed Qin Hai. Without waiting for Qin Hai to ask anything more, he had already hung up the phone first.

At night? Qin Hai was a little puzzled, but he thought about it. Maybe the old general has other things to do now, and he can't talk to him in detail, so he will ask him to talk on the phone again in the evening. But what time of day is night? Also, what does the telephone call at night have to do with his address in Le Havre, the old general can't have come to him in person, right?

Qin Hai's doubts were answered in the afternoon, and when it was time for dinner, an off-road vehicle rushed from Paris to Le Havre and stopped in front of the hotel where Qin Hai was staying. Two Chinese got out of the off-road vehicle. Carrying two aluminum alloy boxes in his hands, he went straight to Qin Hai's room.

"Excuse me, is it Comrade Qin Hai?" After knocking on the door, the leader asked Qin Hai. When he speaks, his face is expressionless, giving people a sense of business.

"I am." Qin Haidao, "Excuse me, who are you?" ”

"My name is Zhang Tao. This is Mu Zheng, we are from the Chinese Embassy in France. I came to install a phone for you on the orders of Ji Lao. The leader said.

"Installing a phone?" Qin Hai was stunned for a moment, and then he understood.

No wonder Ji Mingchu asked him to call himself again at night, it turned out that it was not because Ji Mingchu had something to do, but that Qin Hai's way of calling was not suitable. When it comes to the military, Ji Mingchu couldn't discuss it with Qin Hai in this kind of ordinary phone call, and these two embassy personnel brought it. Apparently a telephone with encryption.

Sure enough, the two of them walked in the door, and without saying a word, they removed the original phone in the hotel room and replaced it with a phone they had brought, which looked ordinary on the surface. It's even more rudimentary than a regular phone. However, Zhang Tao told Qin Hai very clearly that the phone can encrypt the audio signal, and no one can eavesdrop on it.

"Is it so strict?" Qin Hai said with a smile, "I won't be involved in anything very confidential. ”

"I don't know about this, we received an order to provide you with encrypted phone service." Zhang Tao said with a cool look.

The two of them not only sent Qin Hai an encrypted phone, but also took a set of unknown equipment to probe inside and outside Qin Hai's room, obviously checking whether there were any monitoring and eavesdropping devices in the room. After all the inspections were completed, Zhang Tao nodded to Qin Hai and said, "Comrade Qin Hai, now you can use this phone, we will wait outside the room." ”

"Well, thank you." Qin Hai said, since the other party attaches so much importance to it, it is inconvenient for him to say anything.

Zhang Tao and Mu Zheng exited Qin Hai's room, as they themselves said, they did not go away, but found two chairs, and guarded Qin Hai's door like door gods, occasionally when other people living in the hotel walked through the corridor, both of them would stare at each other vigilantly until the other party walked away.

Qin Customs went to the door, picked up the encrypted phone, and dialed Ji Mingchu's number again. After Ji Mingchu picked up the phone, he didn't speak, but laughed first: "How is it, Xiao Qin, do you think there is a bit of a fuss?" ”

"Ji Lao, I review, it's because I don't have enough sense of security and confidentiality." Qin Hai hurriedly admitted his mistake.

Ji Mingchu said: "It's not surprising, you have been working in the local area, and you don't understand the strict nature of the intelligence struggle. Although you are only talking about a super filter membrane, from a small point to a large one, there will still be a lot of information about national defense and security, so you need to be cautious. ”

"I see." Qin Hai said.

"Well, you can now elaborate on the cause and effect of the incident." Ji Mingchu said.

This time, Qin Hai's introduction was much more detailed, and Ji Mingchu listened and asked at the same time, not only asking about the identity of Seitzler and others, but also having a careful understanding of the performance of the super filter membrane.

"This super filter membrane has a very important application in the military field." After listening to this, Ji Mingchu said, "Having this super filter membrane can improve the endurance of warships at sea and enhance the army's ability to survive in the wild." This kind of filter membrane is not only useful for the US military, but also of great significance for the modernization of our army. ”

"We ignored the problem and did not introduce this technology to the military in a timely manner." Qin Hai said apologetically, this is actually an oversight on his part, after developing the super filter membrane, he has been pondering the civilian field, without taking into account the needs of the military.

Ji Mingchu said in a slightly reproachful tone: "Xiao Qin, this kind of thing is not an example. In the future, no matter what new technology your Daqin Group develops, you must go to the Commission of Science and Technology to prepare a case. You can't think of anything that works, maybe it's a treasure in the eyes of the troops. Just like you super filter membrane, in the end, it is the fragrance that blooms in the wall, but it is the foreign army that notices its usefulness first. ”

Qin Hai could only continue to admit his mistake: "Yes, this is indeed our fault, we will definitely pay attention to it in the future." ”

Ji Mingchu didn't mean to pursue it, after all, Qin Hai was not a person from the military, and he had no obligation to explain all the technology to the military. Qin Hai was able to think of reporting to him at this time, which was already a very good example, compared to other private enterprises, it was a very positive attitude.

He diverted from the topic just now and said: "Xiao Qin, after listening to you talk about this matter in the morning, I specially asked the comrades of the logistics department to learn more about the situation, and also got in touch with your Jintang Chemical Materials Company and got specific technical information. After a comprehensive analysis of the data, the Logistics Department believes that this super filter membrane has a very important strategic value, and the US military should be determined to obtain it. ”

"So, can we offer this product to them?" Qin Hai asked.

"If you don't provide them with this kind of product, can you copy it with American technology?" Ji Mingchu asked.

Qin Haidao: "The technology we use is not profound, just to convert the plane filter membrane into hollow fiber, to say what technical difficulties, that is, the preparation of hollow fiber, we have some uniqueness, but it is not impossible to imitate." We have applied for a patent for this technology, and the main technical details are disclosed, and it is not too difficult for the United States to imitate it. ”

"So if you don't sell it to them, they can make it themselves?" Ji Mingchu asked.

"Yes. Imitating our technology is patent infringement. However, if it is used by the military, I don't think they will care about infringement or not. Qin Hai said.

Ji Mingchu said: "This is also the conclusion reached by the logistics department, we believe that instead of vainly blockading the US military, it is better to sell products to them generously, and then exchange these technologies for some technologies that we are interested in, which is more beneficial to us." ”

"Your thoughts are exactly what I think." Qin Hai said, "The purpose of my call to you is to find out what our military wants to exchange, and I want to use these as conditions to negotiate with the other party." However, if possible, it is best to invite the comrades of the embassy to participate in this negotiation, and as a private enterprise, it is not suitable for our Daqin Group to discuss cooperation on military projects with the other side. ”

"I see." Ji Mingchu's mind was very clear, he understood Qin Hai's difficulties, he said: "I will arrange someone to be responsible for the specific negotiation work, what you have to do is to do a good job of communication between the two sides." Also, this incident is a new contribution made by your Daqin Group to the army, and the military will not forget your contributions. ”

"Haha, with Ji Lao's words, I will be content." Qin Hai said with a smile. (To be continued......)
