Chapter 261: Insiders

There are so many Chinatowns around the world that it's hard to count exactly how many there are.

But in the United States, the oldest is the Chinatown of the vassal city, which began in 1848 with only three Chinese, and has experienced many historical upheavals, including the destruction of the earthquake, and has persevered to this day.

Chinatown is by far the largest Chinese community outside of Asia in the world, and a major tourist attraction in the domain city, with more visitors each year than even the Golden Gate Bridge.

The entrance to Chinatown is at the southern end of Grant Street on Bush Street, and the gate is covered with green tiles, and several vivid dragons have a very Chinese flavor. Grant Street is the main street in the community, densely packed with shops, restaurants, and colorful facades that attract tourists and citizens alike. The Chinese Cultural Center hosts a variety of exhibitions of Chinese Americans, as well as a Chinatown History Tour and a Chinatown Food Tour. The Chinese Historical Club tells the story of Chinatown and the difficult years of Chinese people in the United States, and various documents testify to the Chinese community's contribution to San Francisco's history.

In the past few days, I have eaten Western food every day, and everyone wants to vomit after eating. Just arrived in Chinatown, so I can taste the taste of hometown.

In order to adapt to the taste of foreigners, Chinese restaurants will have some improvement in the cooking process. However, after seeing the faces of the Orientals, the boss who spoke Cantonese was obviously much more enthusiastic, and the menus he brought over were all different.

"There are some dishes that only our domestic people know how to enjoy!"

The range of food eaten by foreigners is not as large as that of Chinese people, and a lot of offal and pig blood are not eaten, but in the eyes of Chinese people, this is a rare delicacy. In the southern recipe, there are many animal offal dishes.

Being able to eat the taste of China at this end of the ocean is quite impressive.

After settling the two eldest ladies who couldn't afford to offend, Du Jiayi took time to meet Sterke's classmates.

"Scott said that you resigned because of the failure of the investment, can you take the liberty of telling me what happened?" As soon as Du Jiayi sat down, he got to the point.

The American, named Able, looked quite burly and spirited, without a middle-aged beer belly. The hair is not messy, the suit is very neat, and at first glance I feel that it is a very self-disciplined character.

Abel said calmly: "The investment in communication equipment that I promoted was cheated by that company, and the technology they claimed was not up to standard, but it reached the laboratory stage, and it was not able to reach the mass production stage at all." ”

"But when I did the final inspection, I couldn't find a problem, so the company had to continue working on the project."

In the final analysis, Abel is only part of the problem, and in business, using the investment of large companies for technology development can be regarded as an unspoken rule in the industry. When the technology is put into production, it will not necessarily bring losses to the company, but for the morally clean Abel Abble, this is a big mistake, and he has no face to stay in the original company.

After listening to Ebel's story, Du Jiayi always felt that this Abel was a bit like a medieval knight, full of chivalry.

At this point, Du Jiayi guessed correctly.

Ebel's great-grandfather's generation was a knight in England, and if it weren't for offending the powerful because of his upright character, he wouldn't have been sent to the barren United States.

My great-grandfather's generation had a stronger chivalry, and it was quite mixed in the American West, which admired the cowboy spirit.

By the time Abel had come to his generation, that chivalry had almost dissipated, but moral cleanliness had remained.

"I don't have any problems here." Du Jiayi thought about it for a moment, "If there is no problem with the crossbow, I think we can sign an employment contract." ”

Able didn't seem surprised by this answer, and was very confident in his abilities.

"I have a question." "I'm curious to know what exactly you need to hire me for?" ”

When Scott contacted Able, he revealed Du Jiayi's net worth, and serving under him was not in vain for Able's talent.

But Abel still didn't know what Du Jiayi needed to do on his own.

"If you want to know, then sign the contract first, there are some confidentiality clauses in it." Du Jiayi said.

Able struggled for a moment.

Americans generally don't like savings, spending as much as they want, and not enough money to overdraft their credit cards. After not resigning, the bills that were originally consumed still need to be repaid, not to mention that the salary given by Du Jiayi is not low, Abel just struggled for a moment and signed.

Du Jiayi looked at the contract for a while, and then told Abel about the problems he encountered.

The main business of the original company of Abel was electronic instruments, and it was also a person in the industry, so he could more or less have his own opinions.

"In the United States, there is a very special legal provision." Able immediately thought of a solution.

"The U.S. patent law specifically stipulates that in order to ensure that patent rights are not abused, patents are not allowed to be held by only one company, and at least one company must be authorized by means of sale, exchange, grant, etc."

"That means that while capacitive touch technology is in the hands of fruit companies, there is at least one other company that has this technology." Abel explained.

"It can even be said that the patents in the hands of fruit companies may also be purchased from other companies."

"Regarding the information about this patent, you can go to the government department to find it, and it is all public!"

Du Jiayi had no idea that there was such a layer.

It stands to reason that if there is a patent that is not guaranteed to make money, it has to be hidden. Du Jiayi also understands it according to this line of thought, but the laws of others stipulate that it is not allowed to be held alone, how could Du Jiayi think about it?

Du Jiayi suppressed the excitement in his heart: "Your first task is to find other people who have this patent and see if there is a way to buy it back!" ”

"What is the budget?"

"Budget is not a problem, the main thing is to buy it!"

Du Jiayi motioned for Ai Jinmeng to send a check.

"Scott also talked about your situation, you take this check first, it is considered an advance salary."

Abel takes a closer look, half a million dollars!!

It's almost enough to catch up with a few years of my salary. Du Jiayi's shot is too generous.

"I don't need to know the process, I just need a result." Du Jiayi said, "As long as you can get this technology, I can reimburse you for the expenses incurred in the process!" (To be continued.) )
