Chapter 184: Naturally, there are acquaintances
1. The time of my personal cooperation with the Oriental Times on the external advertising of the No. 3702 patent is tentatively set for three years.
2. After publishing an advertisement for the transfer and use of a patent in the Oriental Times, the company or individual who contacts the Swiss Patent Office through the Oriental Times and successfully pays the patent transfer fee shall be deemed to have purchased the patent through this channel, and the Oriental Times shall have the right to collect the publicity and information fee.
3. The Oriental Times shall sign a separate contract with the Swiss Patent Office, and the specific matters shall be decided by the two parties through consultation, and the resulting single publicity and information fee shall be paid by the Swiss Patent Office to the Oriental Times newspaper separately.
Zhong Bai finished writing these three contents, pushed them in front of Li Nanxin, looked at her with a smile, and did not speak.
After Li Nanxin took it and looked at it in detail, she frowned and said, "Xiao Zhong, I personally don't think there is anything wrong with these three, but why is there no distribution of benefits related to you in them?" Isn't this a personal loss for you? ”
"No, of course I don't suffer personally, in fact, I have added to this clause." Zhong Bai smiled slightly: "But before that, I need to explain, that is, I personally need a foreign exchange to MD to buy relevant scientific research equipment, you should also know that our country's current attitude towards foreign exchange is cautious and conservative, which is bound to cause a big time delay." ”
Li Nanxin is such a smart person, although he is abroad, but he is an overseas Chinese in the newspaper industry, he naturally knows that what Zhong Bai said is true, and if he wants to buy MD's related scientific research equipment, the difficulty can be imagined in China.
Li Nan was glad to see that Zhong had something to say, and knew that the other party would continue to speak, so he didn't interrupt but listened patiently.
"So I think about it this way, as long as there are successful cases, the Swiss Patent Office pays you the publicity and information fee, please be sure to set aside a part to help me buy this scientific research equipment, and after the successful purchase, mail it back to China directly in the form of newspaper donations to my personal hands, that's all." Zhong Bai finally revealed his true thoughts.
"I don't know what this scientific research equipment is? How much is it worth? Seeing that Zhong Bai finally talked about the key point, Li Nanxin also asked solemnly.
Having said that, Zhong Bai did not hide it: "It is the latest personal computer produced by IBM this year, which is worth about $10,000, and I need it very much." ”
"$10,000? It's not cheap! Even though she was a little mentally prepared, Li Nanxin was still startled when she heard this number: "Xiao Zhong, although I promised you to do publicity, our newspaper can't donate at a loss......
"You can rest assured that in the past three years, the publicity and information fees collected by your newspaper through the Swiss Patent Office will definitely not be more than this amount, but will be far exceeded!" Zhong Bai replied firmly: "And this money is actually not paid by you, but collected by the Swiss Patent Office from the buyer, as for how they collect it is their business, I do not ask you to pay in advance, but wait until you receive enough money to help me with this." ”
"Well, that's fine. However, you just mentioned the details of the publicity and information fee, and the "Eastern Times" should sign a separate contract with the Swiss Patent Office, and the specific matters will be decided by the two parties through negotiation. Li Nan was happy to see Zhong Bai say this, and her heart was settled, but now she was really blind to the specific details of this cooperation, so she asked.
"Please rest assured, I didn't just sign the patent with them yesterday, naturally I have acquaintances, let's go to the patent office now......" Zhong Bai smiled slightly and said.
So a taxi quickly pulled the two from the newspaper office to the Swiss Patent Office, and Zhong Bai immediately took Ms. Li Nanxin to find Deputy Director Alden, who was too familiar to know him anymore.
Zhong Bai unabashedly explained his intention to Alden, and told the other party that this was a win-win situation for all three parties, and hyped up the exposure and potential business opportunities brought by the patent through print media publicity.
“…… Zhong, this is really something we never imagined, you can actually think of advertising patents in newspapers, this is ...... This simply refreshes my perception of your old-fashioned and closed impression of Chinese people! After listening to Zhong Bai's words, Alden's jaw was about to drop.
Zhong Bai looked at the time and said, "There is no need to say more about these words that are not nutritious. Deputy Director Alden, everyone is pressed for time, and we will immediately work out the terms of the contract in detail, and the priority is to finalize this matter as soon as possible. ”
"Uh-huh, you're right......"
Zhong Bai's brain naturally had countless sets of templates for this kind of contract in his previous life, and after a little recollection, he directly made the contract for "Oriental Times" and the Swiss Patent Office.
With the rigor of the Germanic people, the text is of course complicated, but as long as the core content meets its own requirements, so although it took an hour to draw up a dense contract of six pages, the key points are right.
The core content of this is that, anyway, within three years, the case of finding the door through the "Oriental Times" and finally successfully purchasing the right to use the patent with the Swiss Patent Office, regardless of the size of the company, will be charged an information fee of $1,000 per case, and this single $1,000 information fee will be distributed by the Swiss Patent Office and the "Oriental Times", of which the "Oriental Times" will share 700 US dollars and the Swiss Patent Office will share 300 US dollars, it's as simple as that.
Before leaving, Li Nanxin brought a series of items such as the official seal in advance at the suggestion of Zhong Bai, and Alden was in his office, needless to say, so after perfecting some details, the two parties signed the contract without hesitation.
"Zhong, thank you so much for this wonderful idea! It is foreseeable that in the future, in addition to the global patent conferences and patent journal publicity, patent No. 3702 will have another publicity channel that other patents have never had! And that's going to be good enough for everyone! Alden gripped Zhong Bai's right hand tightly, and the wrinkles on his face were almost squeezed into the dense ravines of the Alps.
"This is just a win-win opportunity for both of you to give me, but how much benefit you can get from it depends on the joint efforts of both of you." Zhong Bai smiled unashamedly: "Although I know that this money will not go into the pockets of your Deputy Director Alden, after all, it is the income you have developed, and I believe that in terms of office expenses, your patent office will also give you greater access and money." ”
"Hehe, of course." Alden laughed, Zhong Bai's words are not false, only he knows that if it is really as the other party said, 50 companies can contact the Swiss Patent Office through the "Oriental Times" to purchase the right to use the No. 3702 patent a year, which means that through this newly opened channel, there will be $15,000 remitted from the sky to the Swiss Patent Office.
"As long as there are really 50 companies buying the right to use patent No. 3702 through this channel next year, I can guarantee you, Zhong!" Alden slapped his chest loudly: "Next year, I will definitely lead a team to visit Tianhe Province, Huaguo, and hope that you can have more patents registered with our Swiss Patent Office in the future!" ”
