The negotiation with the Feiling Sect failed, and Li Yao didn't take it to heart.

Business negotiations are like this, the price is not negotiable, it is normal.

However, Gao Guanyu's words reminded him.

Utility patents are only valid for three years.

After three years, the structure of the monster detector is no longer protected by patent law, and anyone can refine a similar magic weapon.

If you want to commercialize it, the sooner the better.

However, it is one thing to spend a few days carefully crafting and hand-polishing a demon beast detector, and it is another thing to refine it in large quantities on the assembly line.

Not to mention that he does not have a large number of necessary equipment such as Xuanguang micro-engraving machines for refining, it is said that after refining, advertising and marketing, channel distribution, after-sales service, and capital operation ......

None of these problems can be solved by him.

Thinking about it, he didn't have a clue, Li Yao could only ask Yuan Manqiu for advice.

Yuan Manqiu has been in the refiner circle for decades, she is a veritable eldest sister, she has applied for hundreds of patents, and she has long been familiar with how to commercialize patents, and her first sentence is amazing.

"First of all, you can start a sect on your own."

"Don't look at me so dumbfounded, what's so great about the founding sect? Now, in order to stimulate the creativity of young people, the state strongly encourages young cultivators to start their own businesses. ”

"It is a trend for college students to start a sect."

"For example, many senior students in our school, groups of three or five, have founded their own sects, and the school is very supportive."

"Moreover, not only do you have the status of a college student, but you are also a disabled soldier at the federal level, and if you start a sect, you will have great incentives in terms of taxes and bank loans."

"After opening a sect, you can mass-produce monster detectors, of course, you need a large amount of investment in the early stage, you can borrow from the bank, or you can go to some youth entrepreneurship parks to find someone to invest."

"Nowadays, many large sects like to discover potential small sects in the youth entrepreneurship park and invest in them."

"I think the monster detector project has great potential, and with this as the core, it will create a very distinctive small sect, which will be very popular in the youth entrepreneurship park."

"If you're lucky enough, there will even be a big sect, spend an astronomical amount of money, and directly buy your small sect."

"In this way, not only will you be able to get a high monetary return, but you can even directly become an elder or hall master level figure of this great sect, which can be described as a step to the sky!"

Yuan Manqiu's construction made Li Yao's heart flutter.

Start a sect of your own?

Sounds pretty beautiful.

However, after careful consideration, he still gave up on this plan.

Whether it is to apply for a loan at a bank or to find investors in a youth entrepreneurship park, there is very tedious transactional work to deal with.

This is an area where managerial cultivators excel.

Li Yao is not a managerial cultivator, he only likes two things, the first is to travel in the complex world of mystical magic weapons; The second is to kill all sides on the bloody battlefield.

These two things have consumed all his time and enthusiasm.

In the next stage, he will focus most of his energy on the Registered Alchemist exam.

Even if he passed the exam, he would make the Xuan Gu Project the focus of his work.

I really don't have the extra energy to run a sect.

Seeing that he denied the first mention, Yuan Manqiu was not surprised, and continued:

"If you don't want to create a sect to produce monster detectors yourself, then you can only cooperate with other sects."

"But cooperation, it also depends on what sect the other party is."

"A big sect like the Feiling Sect, although it has rich experience in refining weapons and a perfect marketing network, but the scale is too large, it is difficult to treat you as an equal collaborator, they are often only willing to make a one-shot deal and directly buy your patent."

"If you want to keep patents, you can only choose second- and third-rate small sects to cooperate, these sects are not strong in technology, there is no follow-up research and development capabilities, and you don't need your patents, you only need to authorize them to produce exclusively."

"Of course, in this way, the price will definitely be lower, and the marketing network of the small sect may not be as perfect as the Feiling Sect, and the magic weapons refined in large quantities on the assembly line will also be problematic for quality control."

"Therefore, it is particularly important to choose a small sect that knows the roots to cooperate."

"Li Yao, what do you think of the Shanhai Sect?"

Yuan Manqiu obviously thought about it more than once, and since Li Yao asked, she threw out the best plan she could think of.

"Shanhai faction?"

Li Yao thought quickly.

He still has a good impression of the Shanhai faction.

Not only is Jiang Wenbo, the logistics director of the Shanhai faction, a visiting professor in the Department of Alchemy, but also one of his teachers.

Moreover, Guan Xiong, a cultivator in the foundation building period of the Shanhai School, was not only his savior, but also a witness for him to become a cultivator.

In the past year, he has met Jiang Wenbo and Guan Xiong several times, and the relationship between the two sides is good, the Shanhai faction is still the sponsor of the refining department of the Great Wilderness War Academy, and now that the students of the refining department have achieved results, it is natural to cooperate with the Shanhai faction.

"I heard that the Shanhai faction has not been doing well in the past two years?" Li Yao was a little uneasy and asked.

"Yes."

Yuan Manqiu did not hide it, and said generously, "For more than a hundred years, the Shanhai faction has always been a second- and third-rate sect with little strength, and there has not even been a strong person in the Jiedan, and in recent years, it has been even more unlucky. Then there was another master, Guan Xiong, who was eroded by demon energy in the beast tide and fell back to the middle level from the high level of the foundation building period. ”

"Without these two high-end combat powers, some high-profit businesses such as killing high-level demon beasts, prospecting in the wilderness, and becoming a military contractor of the Federation cannot be carried out, so it has caused operational difficulties."

"However, after all, the Shanhai faction has developed in the Great Wilderness for more than 100 years, has a deep foundation, and its marketing network is all over the cities of the Great Wilderness, and it also has a certain reputation and sectarian reputation."

"The main market for the demon beast detector is in the Great Wilderness, even if the inland cultivators want to go deep into the wasteland to hunt demon beasts, they will first go to the forward base in the Great Wilderness to rest, and with the advertising and distribution capabilities of the Shanhai School, they can fully cover these important nodes."

"Another key issue is production capacity."

"The Shanhai Sect was not originally a sect that focused on refining weapons, but in order to transform, they spent a lot of money to introduce a set of production lines for Xuanguang micro-engraving machines and micro-components."

"This set of equipment is very advanced, and it can be used to refine the Lingzi watch, and although the structure of the monster detector is ingenious, there is still a certain gap between it and the Lingzi watch."

"In other words, the Shanhai Sect is fully capable of mass-producing demon beast detectors."

"On the other hand, the technical strength of the Shanhai faction is not strong, the newly established R&D center is still those old people, and the director of the R&D center is Lao Jiang, he is a grassroots refiner, and he is not good at refining precision magic weapons, and in terms of technology, it still depends on your support."

"In this way, you will provide technology, and Shanhai will send people, money, production equipment and marketing networks, and the two sides will complement each other very strongly, and the foundation of cooperation will be very solid."

After the teacher's analysis, Li Yao nodded again and again.

In the current situation, Shanhaipai is indeed the best partner.

After a moment's hesitation, Li Yao asked again:

"However, is the Shanhai Sect willing to cooperate with me? Why don't I talk to Mr. Jiang first? ”

Yuan Manqiu smiled slightly:

"What are you talking about, if you take the initiative to talk to him, then you will be passive, of course, wait for him to come to the door!"

"I've sent the video of your battle in the Thunder Cup match, as well as some footage of you fighting in the wasteland, to Lao Jiang, and 'by the way' told him that you have obtained a patent."

"With his eyes, he should be able to see the value of this patent."

"And with the current situation of the Shanhai faction, this is simply a magic weapon tailored for them."

"You better think about it, what conditions should be offered to the Shanhai faction!"

What Yuan Manqiu said was true.

Before waiting for the next day, that night, after watching Li Yao's battle video and the detailed introduction of the demon beast detector, Jiang Wenbo, who was very excited, sent a Linghe biography.

The magic weapon of the demon beast detector is really too much appetite for the Shanhai faction!

Right now, the Shanhai faction is in a very embarrassing situation.

With bank loans, the assembly line introduced at a high price, the refined Lingzi watches have become unsalable, and they are backlogged in the warehouse, and one piece is lost when refined.

But if you don't refine it, the assembly line is idle there, and the interest generated by bank loans every month alone is astronomical.

I have the intention to transfer the whole set of equipment, firstly, the buyer is not easy to find, secondly, the transfer price is too low, and the loss on the books is simply shocking.

What's more, after all the equipment is transferred, what is the future of Shanhai School?

The appearance of the demon beast detector made the eyes of the whole Shanhai faction shine.

The combat-type cultivators led by Guan Xiong often hunted demon beasts in the Great Wilderness, and they were very confident in the market prospects of demon beast detectors.

What's more, the assembly line originally introduced for refining Lingzi watches can be used to mass-produce monster detectors after a little transformation, and there is no technical difficulty.

Instead of being crushed by traditional giants such as Feilingzong in the highly competitive mature market of Lingzi Watch, it is better to try to open up new markets!

Even if the sales volume is not high, as long as you can repay the interest on the bank loan every month, it is better than the assembly line being idle in vain!

Under such calculations, after a day and night of fierce discussions, the Shanhai faction finally reached an agreement to fully cooperate with Li Yao to produce monster detectors! R1152
