"Meet?"

In a café in Philadelphia, Lu Zhou, who was holding his mobile phone, was slightly stunned after hearing Woolf's words.

Woolf looked helpless: "Yes, I helped you push the price to 10 million US dollars, and the other party also agreed to my offer." But he said he couldn't entrust his team's future to a boss he hadn't even met in person, insisting that he meet you before signing the contract. Or...... Shall I arrange for him to come over? ”

To be honest, Woolf had no other idea than roll her eyes as to the guy's reasoning.

Don't talk about the future of the team, there is no future for a research team without funding. I'm afraid that the researchers in his team would like to change their boss and make up for the two months' wages they owe first.

Lu Zhou thought for a moment and said, "No need, let's go over." I also have to see what the equipment is like over there. ”

Woolf smiled and said, "Okay, it's best if you're willing to come in person." ”

The matter of experimental equipment cannot be sloppy, and for the sake of insurance, Lu Zhou decided to go over and take a look in person.

Relative to the researcher himself, the equipment is what he really needs.

In a place like Silicon Valley, where high-tech talents are intensive, an annual salary of $100,000 is more than enough to hire a Ph.D. in the direction of carbon nanomaterials and organic synthesis.

However, the equipment is different, and it can easily cost millions or even tens of millions of dollars.

If nothing else, a slightly better SEM SEM would cost millions of dollars. Another example is the CVD vacuum tube furnace for the preparation of carbon nanotubes, and the vacuum arc chamber commonly used for the preparation of fullerene materials, etc., with a full set of instruments, 20 million US dollars is barely enough at most.

For the sake of cost savings, ordering a new instrument from an instrument manufacturer is definitely not cost-effective to acquire an off-the-shelf research institute.

He doesn't have to spend a lot of money to get a batch of high-quality and inexpensive second-hand equipment, which is undoubtedly much more reliable than second-hand equipment that has been eliminated by other research institutions or has been of unknown origin.

Not only that, but he can also get a group of "skilled workers" who can go directly to work without employee training.

After explaining the matter, Lu Zhou hung up the phone, and then looked at Professor Mihil Pasi, who was sitting opposite, and smiled slightly apologetically.

"Sorry for keeping you waiting for a long time on the phone call at work."

"It's okay, time is precious to an outstanding scholar like you." Michelle Passy smiled, unsparing her compliments, and continued, "Can I start?" ”

Lu Zhou nodded happily: "Of course." ”

I have to admit that the University of Pennsylvania is indeed worthy of the incubation base of the world's business elites, and both students and professors here are quite level.

With her explanation, Lu Zhou has a general framework for the organizational structure of Star Technology's North American branch.

Including the functions of various departments of the company, which positions need which types of talents, employee compensation system and other things that need him to think about, she has already considered for him.

To be honest, if she has the idea of going to the company to find a job, I believe that with her ability, any management position is not a problem.

Of course, doing this kind of job with a fixed salary is definitely not as comfortable as being a professor.

In particular, this kind of professor with a double doctorate in business administration and international trade earns more than just the salary of a faculty position at the University of Pennsylvania, and he is charged by the hour for any company he works as a consultant or for a training company.

Usually take students, occasionally send papers, brush up on the sense of existence, encounter some big cases, and your own students can also act as free labor, this kind of life is definitely more comfortable than living a 9-to-5 life in the office.

“…… That's the basics, and considering that your company is primarily engaged in intellectual property, I recommend that you set up an office in several major markets around the world to monitor the use of patents in those markets. In addition, if the budget is sufficient, I recommend that you hire a professional lawyer and assemble a legal team of 1,020 people to handle intellectual property infringement cases. ”

Taking note of Professor Passy's advice, Lu Zhou closed the document in his hand: "I will seriously consider your opinion. ”

After this interview, the cooperation between him and AM Law Firm on the patent management company was basically over.

All that remains is to hand over the document to the manager he hired, follow the framework laid out in the document, and the North American branch of Star Technology will be running like a machine running at full power.

And he can also extract himself from the cumbersome and mundane things and concentrate on the things he researches.

However, for Michelle Passy, it was only a business stipulated in her contract with AM, and for her personally, the main purpose of today's trip has just begun.

"I noticed that you have not yet developed the Huaguo market, in fact, I have a report on the market research of Huaguo lithium anode materials in my hands, I don't know if you are interested."

Hearing this, Lu Zhou said in a joking tone: "Do I need to charge a fee?" ”

Professor Michel Passy smiled and said: "Of course not, but if you think my research report is okay, I can provide you with more detailed research services and help you formulate a suitable intellectual property licensing strategy for the anode material market in China...... Of course, this part is charged. ”

After taking the research report, Lu Zhou simply flipped through it.

If he is allowed to evaluate it pertinently, this research report is generally doing a good job. As for the specific part, he, as a layman, couldn't see anything more, and he didn't want to worry too much about it.

It is his consistent position to hand over professional things to professional people.

Quietly waiting for Lu Zhou to finish reading the report in his hand, Michelle Passy smiled and asked, "What do you think?" ”

"Generally satisfied," Lu Zhou put it on the table after closing the document in his hand, and said with a smile, "I can see that you are very professional." ”

"Of course," Michelle Passy smiled slightly, "after all, I'm a professional at all." ”

"Then do as you say. However, for follow-up services, I hope to contact you from the Star Technology side, probably in mid-January, I will ask the executives of Star Technology to contact you. ”

Professor Parcy smiled and said, "No problem. So I wish us a happy cooperation? ”

Lu Zhou smiled slightly: "Happy cooperation." ”

After the meeting, the two went to the parking lot together.

Before getting into the car, Lu Zhou suddenly remembered something and turned back to Professor Patsy to ask.

"By the way, you're a professor at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania?"

Michelle Passy smiled, "yes, what's wrong?" ”

"That's right, I have a friend who is studying there, I don't know if you know him?"

Michelle Passy: "May I ask who he is?" ”

Lu Zhou smiled and said, "Her name is Chen Yushan, and she is a master's student at the Wharton School of Business." I heard that she seems to have encountered some difficulties in her project recently, but I can't help her with anything about management. If it's convenient, I'd like you to take care of her for me. ”

The moment she heard this name, Michelle Passy was slightly stunned, and then her expression became a little subtle.

With a light cough, she quickly disguised the subtle unnaturalness and continued, "...... I think I've heard of it, but I'm not very impressed, but I'll keep an eye out for you when I get back later. ”

Lu Zhou smiled and nodded: "Then please." ”
