Chapter 146 Authorization to the State
June 9th.
The day after the end of the high school entrance examination.
Chen Jin's stand-in, with some company executives, went to the imperial capital.
Participated in an important meeting held within the Ministry of Education.
Or rather, a "negotiation" took place.
Negotiations on the Little Star Learning Machine.
Truth be told, the negotiations were quite difficult.
When the negotiations reached a stalemate, an elder-level leader gave him some ideological work.
But Chen Jin's position has not softened in the slightest.
That is the interests of Xinghai Technology, which must be fully guaranteed!
The demands of certain education experts for "nationalization" were categorically rejected by him.
"Since you said that your company spent tens of billions of dollars on the research and development of Xiaoxing learning machines, well, the state will compensate you with 20 billion, double compensation, is this enough?"
"Are you really a brick family, 20 billion yuan, do you treat Xinghai Company as a flower child? The value of the Xiaoxing learning machine is more than two trillion! If you want to buy out this technology, you can, and come up with two trillion. Chen Jin said with a sarcastic smile.
The expert was scolded by him and vomited blood: "Two trillion, you want to make money and want to go crazy?" Products that are related to the future of the country and the fortune of the country, do you only think about making money? You...... It's so disappointing. ”
"Do you have any misconceptions about making money? Xinghai Company invested tens of billions of dollars in the research and development of this product, not to make money, is it to do charity, fortunately you are not an entrepreneur, if you are asked to manage a company, or you will be bankrupt in a few days! ”
Chen Jin shook his head: "The purpose of any company is very simple, that is, to make money first, to change the world by the way, feelings, righteousness, that is for children, everyone is an adult, please communicate in an adult way." ”
"And what exactly do you want?" Another expert asked.
"I don't want anything! Instead, ask what do you want? If you want a Xiaoxing learning machine, you can, pay for it and buy it, and give you a preferential price; If you want the technology of Xiaoxing learning machine, you can, pay for it...... Everyone, please communicate with me in a commercial way. ”
"Qian Qian Qian, have you gotten into the eyes of money? Can't you make your own contribution to the country and the nation? The expert jumped out again.
Chen Jinteng stood up: "I'm sorry, I can't talk anymore, as long as this brick family is present, I don't want to talk anymore, chickens talk to ducks, play the piano to cows, and I can't communicate at all!" ”
He walked straight out of the room.
The experts looked at each other, and the expert blushed.
The next day, Chen Jin re-entered the conference room, and there was no trace of the expert, and the chief negotiator was replaced by a kind official.
"Young man, I understand what you mean, this is the era of commodity economy, there is no problem with your ideas, and you are doing high-tech, and you are contributing to the country's scientific and technological development, and every penny is above board and blameless."
"It's just...... The product of Xiaoxing learning machine has too much impact on the country, too much subversion of the education system, and the education of the next generation must not make any mistakes. ”
"We know that the knowledge points in Xiaoxing's learning machine are mainly in natural sciences, which is very helpful to science students, and it does not touch those sensitive contents, which shows that you are a very smart company and have fully considered some problems."
"But for the state to allow this product, it is impossible to completely control it in the hands of a company, the meaning of the existence of the Ministry of Education is to supervise and supervise, to ensure that there are no problems, and the best regulation is to nationalize this product and operate it by education experts...... Like transportation, electricity, and the military, the importance of the Xiaoxing learning machine has risen to the same level as these fields. ”
"Of course, the state will give a certain amount of economic compensation, and Xinghai Technology Company will also receive strong support, and I guarantee on behalf of the country that you will never suffer!"
The official spoke warmly and sincerely.
But Chen Jin still shook his head.
"Nationalization, it's not impossible, I'll take another step back, 500 billion, completely buy out! Xiaoxing learning machine will be given to you, and the data will also be given to you, this is my bottom line, and it is impossible to give up another point. ”
"Don't think it's expensive, it is said that the country invests trillions of dollars in the field of education every year, my requirements are not high, enterprises also need profits, Xinghai Technology makes a product worth trillions, but sells it at a price of 500 billion, I don't feel that I have taken advantage of it, but I have suffered a big loss."
"Five hundred billion?"
The official opened his mouth wide and said helplessly: "Young man, you are really exaggerating! 500 billion, the country itself can form a team to develop a similar learning machine. ”
"I support national independent research and development! Xinghai Technology is willing to provide technical consulting services, free of charge. Chen Jin immediately expressed his position.
"This ......"
Negotiations have reached an impasse again.
The Ministry of Education added some more chips, hoping for a 100 billion buyout, but it was refused.
Then Chen Jin received a call from his grandfather He Changhou, and the old man scolded him, saying that it was almost enough! Don't delay the country's educational development for the sake of money and become a historical sinner!
Chen Jin had to spend more than two hours barely to get through the old man's ideological work.
June 18.
The negotiations lasted until the ninth day, and a compromise plan that Chen Jin came up with was finally approved by the Ministry of Education and approved by the above.
The core content of the compromise plan is mainly three.
1. The intellectual property rights and technical data of Xiaoxing Learning Machine belong to Xinghai Technology, but they can be licensed to the state for free use
Second, Xinghai Technology will supply Xiaoxing learning machines to the Ministry of Education with the production cost price + 10% hardware profit, and even take away 70% of the production capacity of the foundry.
3. The R&D, manufacturing and production related to Xiaoxing learning machine will be supported by the state with tax exemption and complete tax exemption.
If the state gives tax exemption support, the comprehensive cost of Xiaoxing learning machine can be reduced by at least 40%...... This is something that Chen Jin values very much.
He finally said: "The core technology, it is impossible for me to contribute it free of charge, 100 billion is just a flower child, but I can authorize it to the state for free to supply the cost price version of the Xiaoxing learning machine for the Ministry of Education, in exchange for tax-free support." ”
"In addition, Xinghai Technology will continue to make learning machine products, and even, we have successfully developed a ten-fold more powerful 'Xiaoxing Second Generation', this product, the Ministry of Education can purchase in large quantities, Xinghai Technology will also be sold externally, but in terms of pricing, our" Xiaoxing Second Generation "is the market pricing, the price will be more than 10,000, I don't care about the pricing of the Ministry of Education, whatever you decide, some poor students can't use it, that's not our problem."
"This is my greatest sincerity, if you can agree, then happy cooperation; If it doesn't work, I have to give it for free, sorry, I really can't do it, I can only give up this product and expand in other fields, so as not to interfere with each other in the future. ”
Chen Jin shrugged and said that he couldn't have made any bigger concessions.
The experts of the Ministry of Education looked at each other for a while.
The official communicated with the above and received a positive reply: "Yes, the intelligent learning machine cannot be completely controlled by the government, and private enterprises are also needed to participate in the competition to stimulate the vitality of this market!" Provide better education services. ”
"Okay, Comrade Xiao Chen, we agreed to your conditions! In the future, we will work together to make our contribution to the education of country Z! ”
"Happy working together!"
Chen Jin smiled and shook hands with him.
……
June 20th.
All the terms of cooperation are negotiated, the representatives of both sides sign, and the cooperation agreement is officially reached.
Chen Jin put forward an application in the ear of Minister Yuan of the Ministry of Education to keep his eyes open: let the second generation of Xiaoxing participate in the national college entrance examination held on July 1.
