Chapter 126 [King Kong Glass (1/4)]

(Four shifts a day at the end of the month, asking for tickets in the front row~~(*^▽^*))

——

Three days later, Luo Sheng arranged the work matters related to the two companies before leaving for the country, and the first stop of this business trip was New York, North America.

Arrived in New York and rested in a hotel for one night to turn the jet lag backwards.

This morning, Luo Sheng slept until he woke up naturally, and came out of the guest room, breakfast had been prepared, and a newspaper was put at the same time.

"Please come in."

When he heard the knock on the door, Luo Sheng, who was enjoying breakfast, stared at the contents of the newspaper and responded, and it was Qin Weimu who walked in.

"I've already made an appointment for you, meet with Corning CEO Wendell Weeks in the morning, go directly to their company, meet Take-Two founder Ryan Blunt tomorrow afternoon, and meet Valve's founder Gabe Logan Newell four days later." Qin Weimu said, these are all arranged by Luo Sheng.

Luo Sheng nodded, glanced at her and said, "Hard work, haven't you eaten breakfast yet?" Well......? ”

After speaking, he showed her a look, Qin Weimu had indeed not eaten breakfast yet, but he did not refuse, he sat down at the table generously and enjoyed breakfast together.

Luo Sheng admired her, and suddenly said seriously: "To tell the truth, Arsenal also wants to shoot and score, thinking about it, okay, let's not talk about the problem of shooting, I'll think about it, but let's see what the world in the penalty area is like, right?" ”

Qin Weimu hesitated for a moment, and suddenly glared at him angrily: "Don't play hooligan in front of me here." ”

Luo Sheng sighed helplessly: "What you can't get is really like a cat scratching an itch, how long are you going to torture me, I'm too difficult......"

Qin Weimu couldn't help but laugh secretly when he heard this, and snorted as if nothing happened: "You stinky men, you are too easy to get and will not cherish it at all, I just want you to understand that not all women can be overcome with money and materials." ”

Luo Sheng suddenly rolled his eyes, glanced at her and mocked: "Cut~~, standing and talking doesn't hurt your back, she is already a rich woman with a valuation of hundreds of millions, of course, you can say that, if you know it earlier, I won't give you equity, so you will be embarrassed." ”

Qin Weimu looked at him with a smile and said, "Then you can fire me?" ”

Luo Sheng pretended to stare at her, looking at her incredulously, Qin Weimu saw that his expression was also inexplicable, Luo Sheng immediately said: "Uh~~ Really fake?" How dare you do this? It's the first time I've ever seen a woman who asks for it...... But this kind of thing doesn't need to be said so ...... Shouldn't we be subtle? I didn't expect you to ...... too."

Qin Weimu: ???

After reacting, Qin Weimu suddenly interrupted him in annoyance, and scolded angrily: "Shut up, get out-"

Luo Sheng smiled and hurriedly admitted his mistake: "It's not me...... Okay, my fault, my fault, don't say it, don't say it, don't say it, ah, I'll invite you to eat goose another day, it's super delicious. ”

Qin Weimu wasn't really angry with him, but he had to express his emotions, otherwise with this guy's cheekiness, he would definitely get an inch, and maybe the forbidden area would be lost.

Goose meat?

Qin Weimu was suspicious in hindsight, but he didn't figure it out.

……

After breakfast, Luo Sheng went to Corning's headquarters as promised and met with Wicks around 10 a.m.

"I was really surprised to hear that you wanted to meet me, and I still can't understand why the 'son of the Internet' would interview the CEO of a glass manufacturer." In Corning's reception room, the company's owner, Wendell Weeks, quipped.

At this moment, when they were both seated, Luo Sheng brought Qin Weimu as an accompanying assistant.

"Mr. Wicks, maybe you don't know, in addition to Bluestar Technology, I also started another business."

"No, I know, Cote d'Azur." Wesker corrected.

Hearing this, Luo Sheng shrugged his shoulders with a smile and spread his hands, "Huh...... Well, in fact, I was looking around for the hardest glass manufacturers all this time, and Corning came into my sights. ”

When Wicks heard this, he crossed Erlang's legs and said ostentatiously: "Haha, Mr. Luo, if you want to buy glass, then you have found the right person, I am an expert in the field of glass." But what I want to know is, what do you want glass for? ”

Luo Sheng put it succinctly: "Smartphone screen glass. ”

There is nothing to hide, a screen glass material can not see any clues, the purpose of Luo Sheng's trip is to hope that Corning can supply screen glass materials for the Cote d'Azur, how to do it The company itself has a final assembly line and related supporting equipment.

I see, Wicks, who learned the reason, was not too surprised, when Luo Sheng came to meet him, he also understood, and knew that the Cote d'Azur company also cooperated with Qualcomm, and it was not surprising to make mobile phone screens.

Knowing that the customer came to the door to discuss business, Weeks couldn't help but feel a lot more concerned, and immediately introduced many of Corning's products and R&D capabilities to Luo Sheng, which showed off the story of developing "King Kong Glass" for the cockpit of American fighter jets in the 60s of the 20th century.

Just finished telling this story, Luo Sheng patted his leg and said: "Ness, this so-called 'King Kong glass' is the kind I want, Mr. Wix, your company will produce this kind of glass for us, and there is another requirement, the thickness of a piece can only be 1.3 mm, our order is very large, the first is not less than the volume of one million mobile phones, there may be more in the future, we can establish long-term strategic cooperation." ”

The first million?

More on the back?

Now it's Wicks' turn to be dumbfounded, so confident that the product can sell so well?

Okay, whatever, Wicks came back to his senses and suddenly smiled bitterly, and said, "It's a pity that Mr. Luo, we can't produce this kind of glass." ”

Faced with this basin of cold water, Luo Sheng was stunned, and subconsciously said: "Why is this?" ”

Wix replied reluctantly: "After this glass was developed at that time, the market demand was too small, and the company had already stopped production in 1971 and had not produced it for decades. ”

When Luo Sheng heard this, he immediately smiled lightly: "I thought it was a big deal, it's nothing, it's just a small problem, just restart the production line." ”

Wicks was speechless, no one knew his factory better than him, and this problem was not something that could be overcome with a "small problem" or a "restart".

Immediately afterwards, Luo Sheng asked him a big problem: "Mr. Wicks, we hope that your company can produce 2 million pieces or more of diamond glass within one year." ”

Wicks spread his hands and said: "I'm sorry Mr. Luo, although I am very excited about this business, but now I don't have this ability, our factory is now producing liquid crystal displays, not diamond glass, it is difficult to restart the production line." ”

Luo Sheng looked at him and said: "It's not difficult at all, you can do it, you can definitely do it, use your brains, think of a way, you are experts in the field of glass." Not only did I bring a significant order, but I also brought a historic opportunity for your company. ”

The story king is online again.

"Just imagine, how many mobile phone brands are there in the world at present? Don't you want to be the standard for mobile phone covers? OK, imagine what it would be like when almost all the mainstream mobile phone manufacturers were happy to use Corning's diamond glass panels? ”

"We're going to be better, all of us are crazy about our products, you can make glass that has never been made before, I believe! I'm convinced! ”

At this moment, Luo Sheng once again exerted his talent for clever tongue, praised the other party to the sky, saying that the other party is a master, and others can't do it, but Corning Company can produce more than 2 million pieces of this glass within one year.

Luo Sheng frantically instilled Ecstasy Soup with Wendell Weeks, and finally he sacrificed a killer idea.

"OK, since your company no longer produces this glass, I will invest $80 million to support your company's project restart, research and development, equipment introduction and advanced glass manufacturing of diamond glass. And immediately sign a contract of 2 million pieces, our company pays in advance, and includes the follow-up long-term strategic cooperation, more than 40 million pieces of the contract, if the Cote d'Azur defaults, will pay up to $50 million in liquidated damages. ”

For two million pieces, the contract is at least $10 million, and the contract for 40 million pieces is not less than $200 million.

Luo Sheng let these words out, and Wicks' small universe exploded on the spot.

"Mr. Luo, are you sure it's true?"

Luo Sheng affirmed: "Of course, could it be that I came across more than half the world to joke with you?" ”

Wicks, who was in high spirits, immediately said, "I've decided that we're going to put the best scientists and engineers into this project." ”

Luo Sheng smiled and said, "It should be so." ”

On the same day, the two sides negotiated and quickly reached a consensus on cooperation, but it will take a little time for the contract to be formally signed.

Because it's about investment, Corning Incorporated is a North American high-tech company with five business segments: Display Technologies, Optical Communications, Specialty Materials, Environmental Science, and Life Sciences.

Diamond glass is only a sub-product of the specialty materials segment, and display glass is Corning's highest-revenue, most profitable business segment and its products.

The company nearly went bankrupt in 2003, but by this year its market value had soared to more than $30 billion.
