When Wilden and his colleagues left, An Feng finally couldn't hold back his expression, covered his stomach and laughed...... Two stupid guys, you really think that everything is under control and you have pinched everyone's handles? It's interesting, but there are still some problems with changing hands.

If, as Wilden said, it is not allowed to be provided to third parties, it is clear that they have a good chance of winning the US government's order, but what about the future research and development of their own security companies? In a way, this should be a sign of stealing business, so the details have to be thought through.

An Feng wants to provide a batch of exoskeletons to the security company, whether it is to enhance combat effectiveness or the company's reputation, it is a very effective method, if the contract does not allow this, and you need to give Raytheon company money to produce exoskeletons, wouldn't it be a slander to be cheated?

Moreover, the transfer of technology must also be preceded by the patent for hybrid booster systems.

He called the British side.

I don't know what time it is, it should be noon, Hope. Goodrich answered the phone.

"Mr. Goodrich, how is the machine company doing, has the patent been filed?" An Feng asked, when talking about work with British, you have to be formal, unlike Americans, you can call your name at will, and even your name can be omitted and replaced by a nickname.

Hope, who is temporarily in charge of the day-to-day operations of the machine company, said: "Sir, the technician you sent has now recorded the drawings and construction instructions, and we have submitted them for review three days ago, and from now on, the design in this area will be treated as a trade secret." ”

The time it takes to grant a patent is relatively long, three or five months, one or two years, so after the application is filed. Do whatever you need to do, and just take advantage of the time. An Feng listened and said, "Yes, continue to recruit technicians, and get ready to start the machine." ”

"It's in preparation, sir. Places will be available at the end of the month. Hope said.

After An Feng hung up the phone, he called again and chatted with Hoffman, the company's chief technical officer, for a while, and learned that he was still pointing fingers at those technical practitioners, and it would take about half a month or so to complete the technical technique. An Feng gave him a beautiful hope: he could continue to develop the exoskeleton when he came back.

An Feng rethought it, everything went according to the plan, and everything that could make money on the basic exoskeleton was dismantled by him, so that he could maintain the maximum profit and avoid military sensitive areas. Secrets are lost, where does the exoskeleton appear. There's nothing the company can do about it.

Now it's just a matter of drying the other party for a while, and then give a reply.

……

When Wilden returned, he rediscovered the robotics company.

On the surface, there is nothing special, just like thousands of high-tech companies in Silicon Valley, and even in the field of robotics, there are a lot of companies that are better than them, but they have abundant capital and tens of millions of foreign companies have invested. It seems ordinary, but it has a good cooperation with GP companies.

It's unpredictable. You must know that the servers or batteries of the GP company are still shrouded in a veil of mystery...... Aside from these mysteries, the employees of the robot company are pitiful, but they are able to repeatedly buy materials in large quantities and unswervingly drive towards the exoskeleton.

Wilden doesn't understand, is there really pure interest? He went to investigate the theft again.

As a defense contractor with close cooperation with the U.S. government. The help of official figures is easy, and even some of the idle positions in the company are government people, who use their connections to easily get the records of the case, such as the Los Angeles Police Department and the Santa Clara County Police.

Starting from the theft of the company, it will continue to be traced in a multi-faceted manner. It can be seen that the robot company is very angry and nervous about the theft, and there are so many forces and many illegal activities, but Wilden is not a police officer, he is too lazy to care about this, he only cares about the whereabouts of the exoskeleton and the blueprints.

According to the suspect's confession, the exoskeleton has a fixed buyer, while the drawings do not. A group of them took the exoskeleton to trade on the high seas, but in the end they failed, and the matter was gone. The other group of people who got the hard drive is ready to copy it and sell it at a low price to more countries or companies in need.

The exoskeleton was recovered after hearing about the worst, but the police report was missing, and the customs and police had been investigating for a long time, and the state government was also concerned, but there was still no clue. The background of a robotics company is not small...... Wilden marked the exoskeleton's disappearance and went to check where the hard drive had gone.

Wilden didn't make much of a discovery.

He turned to the company's security personnel for help, and God knows whether they are undercover agents for the FBI or the NSA, and it is about the development of the country anyway, and these people must help...... Soon, an employee who drank coffee all day and read the newspaper and had nothing to do gave him a precise direction: an international intermediary.

Wilden felt that these agents were still somewhat useful at the critical moment.

The international intermediary gave a positive answer, saying that they have a total of two sets of drawings in their hands, one original and one copy, the first set has been sold, and the second set is currently looking for a seller...... But there is not much interest, after all, compared to the opening price of six million, there are no samples, and the risk is very high.

Wilden was also a little hesitant, but the price of 20 million for the robot may not be negotiated. If you spend six million on the drawings now, give up the exclusive sharing of techniques, and instead buy a set of samples as a control, it will cost fifteen million at most. Wouldn't it be more appropriate to save five million?

According to An Feng's opening price, it will definitely exceed 20 million, but buying the drawings for 6 million is at most a research fee, and if there are samples for reference, of course it will be faster. The most important thing is that it is able to save a lot of budget, and the company does not invest too much in this area.

In the end, Wilden still made a move.

The process is complicated, whether to pay the money first and then deliver the goods, or to ship the goods first and then pay the money, or to pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other hand...... It depends on the international situation, and the current crackdown on this type of multinationals on the West Coast is very serious, and at the end of the day, a complicated method is spent: pay for the goods.

To put it bluntly, it is an inspection, and after the professionals confirm the gold content, the two parties finally traded for six million, and the design drawings were in hand. Wilden wondered who the previous buyer was, but the other party did not leak the secret, and only gave a general direction: Asia. There are only two countries in this - China and Japan.

But when it comes to the math, China is unlikely, because the international crime market has not been opened, international intermediaries are not easy to mix, and the attitude towards machine technology is far less than that of Japan, which is the world's leading robot technology - although it is used in civilian use, such as boring sex = love machines.

Wilden felt that the Japanese were not to be afraid, and it was better for the Americans to carry forward this technique! And they have an innate advantage, and the robotics company is still on American territory. The next day, he took the initiative to call An Fengming and said that since both sides would not give in, then the second option.

"Tell me your opinion." The phone was in a serious British accent, and Weldon always felt that he was talking to an old-fashioned British.

He drove this thought away and said, "Maybe we don't need to reach an agreement for exclusive use of technology, and only order a set of exoskeletons from a robotics company, how about it?" ”

"Can I understand that this is an April Fool's joke?" The other party said with a smile.

Wilden explained: "You misunderstood sir, I mean, the sample and the proviso are worth eight million dollars, one transaction, and we have no right to interfere with who your product is offered. But within half a year, you can't transfer your technology to other companies, how about it? ”

The other side thought for a moment, and just when Weldon thought he had to bargain, the reply came, "Well, I like this suggestion too." ”

"Then let's talk about it tomorrow." Wilden said happily.

……

An Feng hung up the phone with a strange face.

The last time they also said that they could only cooperate at a price of 20 million, so they only need samples, no technology?

Of course, they require that the technology cannot be transferred within half a year, and this is no problem, but samples can be sold, such as the competitor Lockheed Martin, and they will definitely be able to prevent them from coming out if they have samples...... An Feng didn't understand, but he was also inclined to this plan in his heart, and it was too painful to enjoy something exclusive to the technique.

So they sat together and worked out the details.

An Feng couldn't guess what Wilden was thinking, even if there were exoskeleton samples, it would take time to imitate them, don't you see the Americans or Russia selling arms to India with confidence, or even giving them drawings, but being cautious about China? Because the overall industrial level is there! For India, which is not even self-sufficient in bullets, it is too fake and too far away to talk about high-tech or something.

The United States is advanced, but it is still only a "little brother" compared to the manufacturing methods of robotics companies today. Half a year of R&D is indispensable – unless they have design drawings. It is difficult to have drawings alone and no samples; It is difficult to have samples without drawings, but the two are complete, and the difficulty is greatly reduced.

An Feng seemed to understand something.

But he still pretended to be crazy and stupid and signed a transaction contract with the other party, promising to only sell products within half a year, and not transfer confidential technology - there are not many secrets, the power system is on the UK side, the chip and energy are on the Texas side, and the rest of the framework is a little more complicated.

After signing the contract, eight million can be easily obtained.

For An Feng, this seems to have come out of thin air, because no matter what, he hopes that the United States will have this technique, and only this aggressive guy can make other countries in the world nervous, and turn An Feng's "gift of favor" to become extremely weighty.

The original expectation was zero income.

But now he unexpectedly took an extra 8 million, which is considered an "activity budget" obtained in the dark, right?

An Feng gave Americans a thumbs up and spent money on free products, which is amazing!

The final agreement between the robot company and Raytheon is that when the technicians return, they will provide the individuals with a set of exoskeletons as soon as possible, that is, by September. For robotics companies that are familiar with the process, it is not difficult to build a set in a week.

Waving to Cadillac, An Feng returned to the office in a happy mood to pack his things. Recently, the robot company has nothing big to do, the exoskeleton has stopped, and the rest is the design and production of some small machines, aircraft or bionic machines. (To be continued......)
