Compared with the distance of nearly 8,000 kilometers from Switzerland to China, Ukraine, which is also on the European continent, has only 1,900 kilometers by air from Switzerland.

Alden, the deputy director of the Swiss Patent Office, never imagined that the voice in this phone call from Ukraine turned out to be ......

Zhong Bai!

"Director Alden, long time no see! I have business to contact you today......" On the phone, Zhong Bai's voice was still so magnetic and confident.

However, after listening to Zhong Bai's request, even Alden felt a little too mysterious!

Zhong Bai asked himself to find a way to send an official and two experts in the mining industry to Kharkiv City, Soviet Ukraine, to audit and sign the contract on the spot as soon as possible!

Because there, there is a Huaguo company opened by Zhong Bai's friend, which will register a new patent for continuous mining equipment in underground mines!

"I said, Zhong ...... This kind of operation has never been seen before in our Swiss Patent Office! Alden could only lay out the facts and reason for the other party: "It's just that no matter how anxious you are, it won't be like this, right?" We in Switzerland are neutral countries, and we are visa-free to Ukraine, so can't you let your friends take this design to Geneva? ”

Zhong Bai ignored Alden's request: "No, this matter is very urgent, we only have an entry permit from China to Ukraine now, if we apply for a visa to Switzerland again, it is estimated that there will be a lot of delay in the middle, and we can't afford to wait." Anyway, your patent office doesn't have this restriction, and I heard that when some big MD companies want to register their company's patents with you, you don't send someone to fly over! ”

"After all, it's MD, your situation is still a little different......" When the other party said this, Alden realized that he couldn't find a suitable reason to refute Zhong Bai.

"What's different?" Zhong Bai said nonchalantly: "It's all patents!" And I can assure you that as long as you agree, I will definitely let you take the commission for the transfer and use of this patent according to the highest specification allowed by your Swiss Patent Office, that is, 30%! ”

Rao is Alden's heart is strong, and he can't help but pound when he hears this tempting number!

"Huh?! 30%？！ Don't joke with me, Zhong! ”

Zhong Bai said seriously: "When did I joke with you about this kind of thing?" Rest assured, saying 30% is 30%! However, I would like to make it clear that this patent, at least for the current five years, is limited to the authorized transfer and use in the territory of the Soviet Union and Ukraine, and no other country or region in the world, except for China, is not allowed to transfer and use in a second place, and I have to make this clear to you in advance. ”

"Oh, that's it......" Hearing Zhong Bai say this, Alden's excited mood just now suddenly calmed down a lot.

"Hehe, this matter is not only a matter of commission ratio, it also has other meanings, I believe that I don't need to emphasize that Director Alden will also understand, for the Swiss Patent Office this is a very remarkable achievement, right?"

Alden quickly digested Zhong Bai's prompt and did a real-time analysis in his brain.

Even if only one country, Ukraine, can authorize the transfer of the use of the withdrawal commission, even if the total amount is not high, but the commission ratio of 30%, which in itself is a particularly symbolic thing!

You must know that since the establishment of the Swiss Patent Office for so many years, there are only a handful of times when patent applicants dare to set the commission ratio to the upper limit of 30%, not even more than 5!

Because this percentage of commission is too high, it is not conducive to patent promotion.

But Alden is also very clear that from another point of view, the last patent that could set the commission ratio to 30% was probably applied for 20 years ago, right?

In other words, at least in the first three terms of the current Patent Office (each of the five years), no Director General has had this exceptional achievement!

And in the past, all of these patents were obtained through the relationship of the director!

So, if he promised Zhong Bai this time and got it, does it mean that a new patent with a 30% commission ratio was actually successfully promoted by himself?

Thinking of this, Deputy Director Alden's heart began to pound again!

At the end of last year, because of the success of patent No. 3702, Alden was recognized by the bureau at the end of the year, which greatly improved his status.

The Swiss Patent Office is currently composed of a director and three deputy directors, and Alden has always been the second-ranked deputy director.

A soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier, everyone knows this saying.

In the same way, a deputy director who doesn't want to be a director is not a good deputy director!

According to Alden's plan, he was originally going to take some time to go to China this summer to see if he could dig up more patent registrations through the Zhongbai line, so as to increase his importance!

Quite a director, at least to become the number one deputy director!

But it's not yet April, Zhong Bai has given such a good opportunity to make contributions, if he doesn't grasp it, wouldn't it be a big waste?

Alden quickly made a comprehensive balance between these individuals and the interests of the bureau in his heart, and finally nodded heavily and agreed: "Okay! Then I'll find a way to make it happen this time! It's a patent for continuous mining in underground mines, right? ”

"Yes."

Alden's voice trembled with excitement and said, "Okay, I have a job in my hands, and I can't fly to Ukraine in person." However, I will send the director Bridget who met with you last time to Ukraine on behalf of the bureau, and in addition, I will immediately find two professional engineers in the mining industry to review it according to the regulations, and you can confirm it as soon as tonight if you wait for my news. ”

"Thank you so much Deputy Director Alden!" Zhong Bai saw that the other party finally agreed, and the stone in his heart also fell to the ground.

Steady!

I'm as steady as a dog in this wave of operations!

Alden didn't forget to confirm again: "Zhong, this time I didn't even know the basic situation of your design and sent someone, in terms of the content of the patent itself, you must not give me a problem!" ”

"Rest assured, it must be a first-class new patent, and I can guarantee with my personality that there will be absolutely no problems!"

Zhong Bai still ended the call with Alden with his favorite promise in the past two days: "If there is any problem with the patent itself, I will find a piece of coal for you to eat!" ”

Although the Red Star Machinery Manufacturing Factory did not accept the call before, after this call, Zhong Bai had more than sixty percent of the certainty in his heart.
