Lin Zhenhua still felt unhappy, he said: "In this way, aren't you more than 200 people? Let me explain to Xiong Lijun and ask him to get you 1,500 catties of pork every month, which is a matter of several thousand yuan. Now that Lao Xiong is fighting with the commercial sector, he can get cheap pork. In the future, you, the director, can give everyone another five catties of pork every month. ”

"This is not good, how can I accept your things for no reason?" Liu Xianghai said embarrassedly.

Lin Zhenhua said in an unshirkable tone: "Lao Liu, you don't care about this matter." As a responsible enterprise, we send some condolences to the comrades of the People's Liberation Army, why do you refuse? ”

"But ......," Liu Xianghai said.

He knew that Lin Zhenhua was not short of money now, but he always felt a little inappropriate to accept Lin Zhenhua's gift like this. After thinking about it, Lin Zhenhua did not give him a gift personally, but gave gifts to all the employees of the firm, as the director, does he have the right to refuse? If everyone knew that he had refused to donate five catties of pork per person per month, wouldn't he have become a public enemy of the whole firm? At the very least, the whole family of the institute can't spare him.

Of course, he also knows that Lin Zhenhua is doing this because he is thinking of his old relationship with him and supporting him as a director in disguise. In this year, the leader who can help employees get benefits is the best leader. With these meat and eggs, he is more able to earn the respect of the whole staff and it will be easier for him to carry out his work.

"Lao Liu, don't refuse. In the future, I have something to trouble you. Lin Zhenhua said.

"Well, okay, but it doesn't have to be delivered every month. When it comes to the New Year, and there is still August Day, it is okay to send one or two times. Liu Xianghai said insincerely.

"Lao Liu, don't be polite to me. Let's be honest, all the money I paid was earned by you. Your patent for the five-blade fan earned me tens of millions. Actually, I'm exploiting your labor. Lin Zhenhua said.

Liu Xianghai said: "No, I'm just a technician. These technologies are worthless to me, and it is you who have developed the value of these technologies, so all the benefits are yours. ”

Lin Zhenhua said: "Lao Liu, now that the national financial funds are tight, you blindly expect the state to allocate funds for you to conduct research, which is too passive." Haven't you ever thought about doing some business activities and making your own money? Earning money, whether it's welfare, or research, it's better than suffocating like this, right? ”

Liu Xianghai said: "We don't have any industry, so we can't produce electric fans, right?" ”

Lin Zhenhua said: "Who said that you don't have an industry, aren't your warships an industry?" ”

Liu Xianghai laughed: "You won't let us sell warships, right?" The navy is also very poor now, and we sell a ship for 13 million, but the navy can't afford it. By the way, the idea of modularization that you came up with last time, we are really still working on it, and now what we sell to the Navy is the patchwork version, and the cheapest one can be compressed to more than 9 million, and the Navy welcomes it. ”

Lin Zhenhua shook his head: "Just by selling warships like this, no wonder you will die of poverty, you never thought of selling warships abroad?" ”

"Sell abroad?" Liu Xianghai looked at Lin Zhenhua suspiciously and asked, "How can you have such an idea?" ”

"What's wrong with my idea?" Lin Zhenhua said confidently: "You have developed a product, isn't it just for selling?" What is the difference between selling at home and selling abroad? You are not a sophisticated weapon, are you, more than two generations behind the United States, are you still afraid of the loss of technology? ”

Liu Xianghai shook his head: "It's not. However, Xiaolin, what you said is also reasonable, in fact, now our military industrial system is indeed engaged in foreign trade, aerospace, aviation, light weapons, and so on, and several foreign trade companies have been established. We have also mentioned this part of the navy, but no one has taken the lead in doing it. There is no shortage of people who can fight wars, but there is a shortage of people who can do business. ”

Speaking of this, he suddenly looked at Lin Zhenhua fixedly, with a hint of a smile in his eyes: "I remembered, you Xiaolin is very good at business." ”

"I can't!" Lin Zhenhua waved his hand again and again, "I'm an expert in selling civilian products, but I can't sell military products." Besides, I'm not from your military, so don't beat my mind. ”

Just kidding, I am quite nourishing in front of the capitalists in the people, in case I get into trouble with the military, how can I be so free now. If you don't get it right, your Hanhua company has been nationalized and has become a naval company.

Liu Xianghai said: "Don't you say that I haven't thought of it, if we really want to sell warships, you are the most suitable person." You see, you yourself are a veteran, politically reliable. You know mechanics, you know English, and you have given us advice on modular shipbuilding, which is an all-round talent. You have experience in business, and when dealing with foreign businessmen, you have never suffered a loss. And ......"

"Lao Liu, you won't be serious, will you?" Lin Zhenhua was a little confused. This is called unintentionally inserting willows and willows, he just made a suggestion casually, and Liu Xianghai discovered so many advantages of himself, as if he wanted to get himself a military uniform and wrap it in immediately, and sent him abroad to sell arms.

Liu Xianghai said: "I still have one last point to say, that is, we are now going to do a deal of warships, we can't do it in the name of the military, we must find a non-military identity, preferably a non-state-run identity, so that we can reduce a lot of trouble in the world." And your Hanhua Industrial Company is essentially a private enterprise, where can a private capitalist like you with a clean background and high political consciousness go now? ”

Lin Zhenhua listened to Liu Xianghai's more and more truthful, and he couldn't help but become serious, he asked, "Old Liu, how do you know so much?" Have you thought about this question in the past? ”

Liu Xianghai said: "If you don't say it, I really forgot." In fact, the last time Minister Zhang came to inspect the work, he mentioned the export of new frigates. According to intelligence services, some third world countries in South Asia and the Middle East urgently need some corvettes for coastal defense. The United States, Great Britain, Germany, and the Soviet Union are all negotiating with them about selling frigates, but the price is said to be too high for them to accept. However, the intelligence services do not care about foreign trade, so it is not known about the possible surnames of the Chinese frigates sold to them. ”

"Lao Liu, the information you got about the frigates of the United States, Britain, Germany, and the Soviet Union is of the same grade as ours, what is the approximate price?" Lin Zhenhua asked, he now has a feeling that he is starting to enter the role.

Liu Xianghai said: "The detailed price is not available, but it is estimated that it should be more than 100 million US dollars, and the price in the United States is the highest, which may reach 200 million US dollars, and it is said that it is still a condensed version." ”

"Ours?"

"15 million yuan, if the air defense, anti-submarine, anti-ship and other weapons are all complete, it will not exceed 20 million."

"Holy!" Lin Zhenhua jumped up, "With such a big price difference, why don't we sell it!" ”

Wei Jingwen, who had been sitting next to them and listening to their chat, interjected: "Xiaolin, why do I think we shouldn't sell it?" ”

"Why?" Lin Zhenhua was confused.

"We are a peace-loving country, so how can we be arms dealers like the United States and the Soviet Union?" Wei Jingwen said.

"My Teacher Wei!" Lin Zhenhua sighed, "What age is it, let's still support this façade." If we are not arms dealers, there will be fewer wars in this world? If you look around us, including our treasure island of Taiwan, all of them are weapons sold by American [***] firemongers. They sell their weapons and make money, so they can develop more advanced weapons to use against us. We pretend to be saints here, and the end result is to be passively beaten. ”

Liu Xianghai clapped his hands and applauded: "Xiao Lin said it well, Lao Wei, it's time to change your concept." ”

Liu Xianghai's qualifications are older than Wei Jingwen, and when he talks like this, Wei Jingwen can't say anything. Wei Jingwen also knew that he was a pedantic man, and some of his ideas were indeed too old-fashioned, so he waved his hand and said, "Oh, I said it casually, you better continue to talk." ”

Liu Xianghai turned his head to Lin Zhenhua and said: "Xiaolin, just what you said just now, I think you are really the most suitable person to do warship trade for us, after you go back, think about this issue seriously." As for me, I will report this matter to the hospital as soon as possible, and then we will form a report and hand it to Minister Zhang of the Equipment Department. What do you think? ”

Lin Zhenhua said: "Lao Liu, I know what you think, but I'm really afraid that I won't be able to take on this important responsibility." You see, my understanding of foreign trade is very shallow, and the political aspect is even more immature, and I also have a half-understanding of the knowledge of naval equipment. It's a little bit of a confidential matter, I'm afraid I'm not suitable to know about it, how do you think I can take on this? ”

Liu Xianghai said: "You can rest assured of this, I said that I will leave this matter to you, not to let you do it alone, but to use your Hanhua Company as a platform to avoid all kinds of unnecessary troubles." As for the manpower in foreign trade, policy, and military industry, the Ministry of Equipment will coordinate and solve it. ”

"Uh......" Lin Zhenhua thought about it for a while, and then smiled dumbly: "I know, Lao Liu, what you mean is that I am just a puppet, that is, I am acting for you at the front desk, as for how to sell, what price to sell, and who to sell, it is up to your people to decide, and then I will implement it, right?" ”

"It's okay to interpret it that way, but ......"

Lin Zhenhua interrupted Liu Xianghai's words and didn't let him finish the "but": "Then the money earned is yours, and the diplomatic disputes caused are counted as our Hanhua Company, right?" ”

Liu Xianghai smiled: "Xiaolin, you are too pessimistic. First, you are still at the heart of the whole business, and I am very optimistic about your vision and your courage, which is something that our comrades in the system do not have. It's okay for our comrades to fight, but in business, it's not as ruthless as yours. When it comes to making money, you're really ruthless. ”

"Is this a compliment to me?" Lin Zhenhua said depressedly.

"Second, the matter of making money will not bypass you, we will negotiate a reasonable sharing ratio with Hanhua Company, and we will distribute all sales profits according to a proportion."

"It's like a human saying." Lin Zhenhua muttered to himself.

Liu Xianghai's nose was almost crooked: "Comrade Lin Zhenhua, please respect a little bit of a division-level cadre of the Chinese People's Liberation Army!" ”

"Yes! Comrade Lin Zhenhua, a cadre at the division level, has now understood that everything you say is human language, and it is Chinese with a Shanghai accent. ”

"Hey!" Liu Xianghai raised his hand, hesitated for a while, and finally didn't hit Lin Zhenhua's body, "You Xiaolin, when will you become a little more mature?" ”

Lin Zhenhua smiled and said, "That's it, you can start reporting this matter, and I'll go back and sum it up." I'm a businessman, and I can't afford to be early. If it's profitable, I won't refuse. ”

"It's like a human saying." Liu Xianghai said in a vengeful tone.

Next, Liu Xianghai introduced the development of waterfall washing machines to Lin Zhenhua. Through a large number of theoretical calculations and practical simulations, Chang Qingbo and others basically mastered the technical know-how of using water spray technology to clean clothes. The first waterfall washing machine trial-produced by the base's machinery factory was born, and after hundreds of hours of trial by the family members, it was unanimously praised.

This laundry method saves water and electricity, and the wear and tear of the clothes is less than that of the traditional wave wheel washing machine, and there is no dead angle in the cleaning process, which fully achieves the effect expected by Lin Zhenhua.

Lin Zhenhua didn't know if the technology developed by Chang Qingbo and others was the same as the waterfall technology he had heard about in later generations, but since it had achieved the expected effect, he didn't think about it anymore.

The waterfall washing machine has high requirements for the control system, and there is a certain synergistic relationship between the various nozzles, which needs to be controlled by the program. This question is not a difficult problem for Wei Jingwen. He communicated with Chang Qingbo and others for an afternoon, and basically understood everything he should know, and he could complete the corresponding circuit design after returning to Xunyang.

In the following days, Lin Zhenhua took Wei Jingwen to visit various electronics research institutes and electronics factories in Shanghai, while learning about the technical situation of each unit, the products that may be provided, etc., and on the other hand, privately inquiring whether these units have idle electronic talents.

I don't know if it was because there was a surplus of talent back then, or if the work paid off, Lin Zhenhua asked like this, and he actually found more than a dozen electronic engineers, some of whom had retired from the unit, and some of whom were idle at home because the projects in the unit were discontinued.

After Wei Jingwen communicated with these people, he circled the names of some of them and told Lin Zhenhua that these people who were circled were all available, and the level of some of them was even higher than Wei Jingwen himself.

Lin Zhenhua saw that the talent was unceremoniously, and immediately came to the door again, knowing the reason, and enticing it to benefit. Finally, when he and Wei Jingwen left Shanghai, the prototype of a Hanhua company's electronics research institute with more than a dozen people had been formed.
