After receiving Ji Mingchu's instructions, Qin Hai immediately contacted Fitters and Seitzler, telling them that they had already communicated with the Chinese military, and that after their own "hard work", the military made an exception and agreed to export this strategically important super filter membrane to the US military, but the military also hoped to get some reciprocal treatment from the US side, such as relaxing the export of certain high-performance integrated circuit chips.

As analyzed internally by the military, the U.S. military attaches great importance to the import of this super filter membrane, as a strategic technology that can greatly improve logistics and supply capabilities. Neither Fitters nor Setzler were surprised by Qin Hai's relays of the Chinese military's demands, which, in their view, would be suspicious if China did not impose any restrictions on the export of the technology, or offered no quid pro quo.

A military attache from the Chinese embassy in France hurried to Le Havre for two hours of closed-door consultations with Fitters and Seitzler, and Qin Hai did not know what kind of behind-the-scenes deal the two sides had finally reached, only that when they left the negotiation room, both sides had a satisfied smile on their faces, and it was clear that some win-win results had been achieved.

"Comrade Qin Hai, thank you for your important contribution to the country, this time, we have gained a lot of unexpected gains." Before leaving, the military attache of the embassy held Qin Hai's hand tightly and said sincerely.

Qin Hai smiled: "You're welcome, this is what we should do." In fact, with the continuous improvement of our country's technological level, we should also have this awareness of reciprocal exchange of interests with others. ”

The military attache nodded again and again, and said, "Yes, we were too lacking in this area, and Chairman Qin taught us a vivid lesson." ”

It turns out that, contrary to the thinking of the United States, the Chinese side did not realize what benefits it could gain by using this technology-for-technology approach. Of course. This is mainly because the Chinese side has never had any technology that can be valued by the Americans in the past, which has led to the Chinese side not having the consciousness of using technological superiority to blackmail. In the eyes of many government officials, the willingness of Americans to buy Chinese products is a great thing that has fallen from the sky, and it is already a relatively reserved expression if they do not hurry forward to kneel and lick it, and who would think of taking the opportunity to make things difficult. Let the other side make some concessions.

This time, if Qin Hai did not take the initiative to raise this issue, but directly sold the product, the Chinese military is estimated to be only a little unhappy, and will not hold Qin Hai responsible. However, Qin Hai had an idea, made up a non-existent export ban, and then used this as a condition to bargain with the United States, and finally really got the harvest. How could this military attaché, who had been appointed by the country to participate in the negotiations, not feel overjoyed.

When I sent off the military attaché of the Chinese embassy and went to see Fitters and Setzler again. The two of them also had expressions of gratitude. Setzler put his hand around Qin Hai's shoulder and said: "Mr. Qin, thanks to your help, your country's negotiator said that because your company is a large company, they have made it particularly convenient, just to let the United States cancel a few unimportant export restrictions, and allow you to export super filter membranes to us." Until then, we are really worried that your country's demands are too high. We can't be satisfied. ”

"You know, I also made a lot of sacrifices. It was only then that the military agreed to this condition. In order to export these membranes to you, our group has to provide a large amount of sponsorship to the military. Sponsorship, you know? Qin Hai pretended to be distressed and said to Setzler.

"This ...... I know a little bit. Setzler said, and then he glanced back at Fitters. Then he pulled Qin Hai aside a few more steps, and said in a low voice: "In order to show our gratitude to your company, we can give in a little bit on the price, do you understand?" ”

Speaking of this, he desperately glanced at Qin Hai. I just had to take out my heart and show it to Qin Hai.

"Price?" Qin Hai was slightly stunned for a moment, and then remembered the last time he went to the United States to sell body armor, and couldn't help laughing: "That's natural, the filter membranes we produce are all for civilian purposes, and in order to meet the requirements of your army, some necessary corrections must be made." By the way, can Mr. Seitzler recommend us a consulting firm in the United States that can help us improve our membrane technology? ”

The last time they went to sell body armor, officials from the US Army's materiel department demanded that the Chinese side must find a consulting company in the United States to act as a service provider in order to get kickbacks, citing the need to provide technical advice. When Setzler made the above hints to Qin Hai, he naturally also had the idea of taking some kickbacks in this procurement case. Anyway, the kickback is also a matter of wool coming out of the sheep, and if it does not harm the interests of Qin Hai and the Chinese side, Qin Hai is naturally happy to push the boat.

Hearing Qin Hai say this, Seitzler was full of joy. He called Fitters over, and together with Qin Hai, he discussed the price, quantity, and other behind-the-scenes transactions for the purchase of filter membranes. The specific signing still needs to go through some procedures, Qin Hai naturally doesn't have to follow everything personally, just hand it over to Chen Hongcheng of the overseas company to deal with.

Qin Hai left Xia Yangjie, Yu Lihong and others to accompany the French personnel to solve various technical problems at the scene, and he left Le Havre and returned to the capital by plane via Paris.

"In the past month or so, has there been anything in the group?"

Sitting in the car that came to pick up the airport from the office, Qin Hai casually asked Su Yabo, the director of the office.

Su Yabo reported in a regular manner: "The ion implanter produced by Blue Point Group has passed the national appraisal last week and will soon be put into production; The welding of the No. 1 and No. 2 ethylene spherical tanks of the Jintang ethylene project has been completed and the pressurization test is now underway, and I just called to learn that the test results are satisfactory......"

"Well, that's good." Qin Hai nodded slightly, in fact, he had always kept in touch with the country when he was in France, and he already knew most of the things Su Yabo said, but he just asked again.

"There is another big matter, it is about Mr. Liu of Quwu, the matter is more complicated, do you think I will report to you now, or will I talk about it in detail after returning to the office?" Su Yabo said.

"Liu Shuo? What's wrong with him? Qin Hai raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Last week, he was detained by the police station in Changgu City." Suyapodo.

"What?" Qin Hai's eyes widened, "What did he do, and besides, why didn't you inform me of such a big thing?" How is he now, is he still at the police station? ”

"He's been released." Su Yabo hurriedly explained, "It was the legal department of the group that communicated with the Changgu police and released Mr. Liu." I consulted Mr. Ning, and he said that this matter was too big, and he was afraid that you would be in a hurry, so he wouldn't let me report to you. ”

"yes, I see." Qin Hai responded, since Ning Zhongying ordered him to keep it secret, he couldn't complain about Su Yabo about this matter. Ning Zhongying's idea is also right, Qin Hai is far away in France, even if he knows about this matter, he can't deal with it personally, he just adds to his worries. It seems that Liu Shuo's crime is not too strict, and it is obvious that Ning Zhongying and others can handle it by themselves.

"You haven't sued me yet, Liu Shuo was detained by the police station for something." Qin Hai said in a calm tone.

Su Yabo said: "He beat someone, and the public security department identified it as a minor injury." Also, he himself was injured, but not too strictly. ”

"Hitting?" Qin Hai was surprised, "How could he beat people, and how could he go to Changgu to beat people?" ”

Su Yabo smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. Qin, you see, I originally planned to go back to the office and report to you slowly, but this matter is a long story, and I don't know where to start for a while." ”

"You sue me first, who did he beat?" Qin Hai asked bluntly.

"Wang Peichao." Suyapodo.

"Wang Peichao?" The image of a white-looking man appeared in Qin Hai's mind, "Deputy Director of the Production Department of Quwu Ceramics Company?" ”

"That's right, it's him." Su Yabo replied.

The predecessor of Quwu Ceramics Company was Qin Hai's brother ceramic factory in Quwu, and there were 20 miners' children of Quwu Jianxing Coal Mine at that time, of which Liu Shuo was the eldest of these people, and Wang Peichao was one of the shareholders. Since the Brother Ceramics Factory itself was established to house the 20 miners' children, these people all held certain positions in the factory, and later became members of the company's management after the establishment of the Quwu Ceramics Company.

After seven or eight years of development, Quwu Ceramics Company has become a large enterprise with an annual output value of nearly 1 billion yuan, and it is also a famous enterprise in Linxi Province.

Qin Hai has inspected Quwu Ceramics Company many times, and is very familiar with the cadres of the company's management, and naturally knows the deputy director of the production department named Wang Peichao. In his impression, Wang Peichao is a very active person, and to put it mildly, he seems to be more impetuous, which is very different from other shareholders such as Liu Shuo and Huang Yanling. However, Qin Hai didn't know much about this person, and he didn't inquire about his specific situation. At this time, when I heard that Liu Shuo entered the police station because of a fight with him, I couldn't help but move slightly.

He knew that Liu Shuo was not a very impulsive person, and he was already in his early fifties, which was no longer the age when he could fight. Wang Peichao's father and Liu Shuo's father were both miners who died in the same mining accident, they used to be called brothers, Liu Shuo beat Wang Peichao to a slight injury as soon as he made a move, what kind of thing will happen in this?
