Chapter 512: What You Say ..... It's really weird and good
More than half a month passed like this.
These days, Xu Chuan has basically gone back and forth between Nanda, Xinghai Research Institute and villas at the foot of Purple Mountain, and his range of activities is basically fixed.
He thought that the news about miniaturized and controllable nuclear fusion would be released soon, but there was no movement after the old man returned.
So much so that the corresponding papers he wrote were held in his hands.
Although he didn't know exactly what he was thinking, Xu Chuan didn't pay much attention to these things, and after leaving the task of keeping an eye on relevant news from media newspapers such as "Nuclear Industry Times" and "Huaxin News" to his assistant, he didn't care about this matter anymore.
Nanda, after a math class, Xu Chuan returned to the office, and as soon as he took a sip of water, the assistant Tang Ran came over.
"Professor, Mr. Zeng Yuqun, chairman of CATL, would like to meet with you."
Xu Chuan: "President of CATL? ”
Tang Ran nodded and said, "Well, he arrived not long after you went to class, if it's inconvenient, I'll refuse here." ”
Xu Chuan was a little curious: "What is he looking for me to do?" Did you say anything? ”
He dealt with CATL, as if it was just once, the artificial SEI film patent authorization for the lithium battery, and CATL obtained two domestic and international authorizations from him at the price of 300 million meters of gold.
Other than that, he and the other party can be said to have little communication.
Tang Ran: "Listening to Mr. Zeng Yuqun's expression, it should be related to the patent of the Chuanhai Materials Research Institute under your name, and he said that he wants to cooperate with you." ”
Xu Chuan thought for a moment and said, "Since you're here, let's see you." ”
If he's not mistaken, CATL seems to only make batteries and battery-related products, right?
Of course, it is also possible that he doesn't know much about it, after all, it doesn't seem realistic for a Fortune 500 company to only make batteries.
However, he basically didn't care about this kind of thing, and he was curious about what the chairman Zeng was looking for him.
The patent of Chuanhai Materials Research Institute, in addition to artificial SEI films, seems to have nothing to do with batteries and is worthy of a Fortune 500 company chairman personally approaching.
Tang Ran nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go and invite him over." ”
At the same time, on the other side, in the reception room of Nanjing University, Zeng Yuqun, who was sitting on the sofa, consciously took a deep breath, looking at the door of the reception room nervously and nervously.
For him, today's meeting is undoubtedly quite important.
To be honest, he hadn't been so nervous for a long time, and if I had to recall, the last time I had probably been a few years ago at the Science and Technology Conference, and we had a few words.
At that time, his mood was probably similar to that of now, nervous and expectant, nervous and hopeful.
If I can meet that scholar smoothly this time, maybe it will completely change the fate of the CATL era.
On the tide of the times, as long as you take the big ship that controls the direction of the wave, there is no doubt that you can extend your destiny to the future and see the more distant world.
Even, maybe you can take advantage of this to soar into the sky.
At this moment, the glass door of the reception room was pushed open, and he immediately looked over with anticipation in his eyes.
Tang Ran nodded and said, "Professor he agreed, please come with me." ”
Hearing this, Zeng Yuqun's eyes suddenly burst into surprise, and he quickly stood up and said, "Thank you, Assistant Tang, I'm in trouble." ”
Although the other party's identity is only an assistant, it is far from worthy of his politeness under normal circumstances. But the identity of this assistant is also completely different from the person he follows.
Just like the woman in front of her, following the great scholar who is destined to be famous in the world's textbooks, her status has naturally improved countless times.
"You're welcome, this is my job to do." Tang Ran replied, brought the person to the door of the office, and then knocked on the door.
"Please come in."
Soon, a young voice came from inside.
Hearing this, Zeng Yuqun stood at the door and stretched out his hand to gently adjust his tie, took a deep breath, and followed Tang Ran into the office.
"Hello Academician Xu, it's really an honor to meet you today."
Looking at the figure sitting on the sofa waiting for him, Zeng Yuqun walked up quickly after three steps and two steps, and said with a hearty smile and respect on his face.
Xu Chuan smiled and shook hands with the president of CATL: "Hello, Mr. Zeng." ”
After a few pleasantries, Tang Ran poured tea for the two, then turned around and left the office with the door.
Xu Chuan took a sip of the teacup, and then said with a smile: "How can a big entrepreneur like Mr. Zeng have time to come and sit with me today?" ”
Zeng Yuqun smiled and said: "Compared with Academician Xu's research, what is the work of the CATL era, your name is destined to shine in the long river of civilization and be praised and remembered by the world." ”
Hearing this, Xu Chuan smiled a little embarrassedly, what he said was really weird and good.
Smiling, he opened his mouth to praise each other: "If the world's top 500 companies are nothing, then there are few companies in this world that can be counted." ”
Zeng Yuqun smiled and said: "Don't look at the revenue of CATL, but the actual profit is really not high. It's too difficult to make batteries, sandwiched between raw materials and application providers, and the profits are basically taken away by the upstream and downstream, and we just make a hard fee. ”
After a pause, he continued: "To be honest, I came here today mainly to expand the scope of cooperation with the Chuanhai Materials Research Institute under your name, Academician Xu. ”
Xu Chuan: "Expand the scope of cooperation? ”
Zeng Yuqun nodded and said: "I heard that some time ago, the Chuanhai Materials Research Institute developed a new technology for synthesizing high-quality graphene, and it just so happened that CATL was also researching graphene batteries, and there was a great demand for high-quality graphene."
Xu Chuan: "So you always wanted to purchase high-quality graphene from Chuanhai Materials Research Institute? ”
Zeng Yuqun shook his head and said with a smile: "I think we can cooperate further." ”
Xu Chuan: "Do you want to license the patented technology?" ”
Zeng Yuqun said with a smile: "CATL has the production qualification of graphene, I want to further cooperate with Academician Xu, Chuanhai Research Institute through technology and patent shares, CATL production, sales, and then related dividends."
To be honest, as a capitalist, if you want to get the most benefits, then buying out the patent license and the exclusive license of patent exploitation is the most cost-effective.
But Zeng Yuqun knew that judging from the style of this Academician Xu, this was almost impossible.
He probably wouldn't allow this kind of monopolistic patent granting, as can be seen from the last patent grant for artificial SEI films.
Of course, compared to getting a patent for graphene from this academician Xu, he hopes to take this opportunity to connect with him.
What is certain is that as the father of controlled nuclear fusion and the Nobel Prize Fields Medal winner, this is definitely the helmsman who controls the development of this era.
One word of his can create a huge market.
Compared with obtaining the patent authorization for the production of graphene, if it can be put online, it will definitely be the most beneficial for the development of CATL.
Therefore, he chose technology shares and dividends that ordinary companies would not choose under normal circumstances, and could even give up most of the profits and equity.
After listening to Zeng Yuqun's words, Xu Chuan thought for a while.
To be honest, he still has some good feelings about the CATL era.
Not to mention the fact that in the last artificial SEI film patent authorization, CATL's quotation was almost 15% of that of other manufacturers.
And this time, Mr. Zeng also offered a sincere price.
For a technology, although the return is smaller in the short term, it is definitely more worthwhile than licensing or buying out in the long run.
The high-quality graphene preparation technology of the Chuanhai Materials Research Institute will probably be sold directly under patent authorization like a very artificial SEI film in his original plan.
It's so convenient, and he can get a huge amount of liquidity, and he doesn't have to worry about it.
Now, it is also a good choice to pay dividends through technology shares.
After thinking for a while, Xu Chuan said: "This kind of cooperation can also be used, if you have production qualifications, I have no opinion on technology shareholding." Then let's talk about the division, and then you can go to the Chuanhai Materials Research Institute to find Fan Pengyue to deal with the specific details. ”
Seeing that Xu Chuan agreed, Zeng Yuqun immediately nodded and said with a smile: "In this way, Chuanhai Materials Research Institute will invest in the technology and patents of high-quality graphene, and I will fully invest here to establish a new graphite production company." ”
"All the relevant affairs of the company are in charge of my side, of course, you have the right to review, and you can always inquire about the operation of the company."
"As for the proportion, how is Seventy-Three? You are seven and I am three. ”
Hearing this ratio, Xu Chuan glanced at the chairman of CATL with some surprise.
It has to be said that pure technology shares occupy 70% of the shares, which is already the top.
Normally, the shares of pure technology will only account for 10%-20% of the total share, if the technology content is high, it can reach more than 30%, and the top one, it can exceed 50%.
However, in any case, according to the third paragraph of Article 27 of the Company Law, the monetary contribution of all shareholders shall not be less than 30% of the registered capital of a limited liability company.
Therefore, the maximum amount of technology equity can only be 70% of the total registered capital.
Therefore, the ratio given by this boss Zeng is already the highest allowed by Chinese law.
Of course, high-quality graphene production technology is also worthy of this proportion.
Nodding, Xu Chuan said with a smile: "Okay, then so be it, you can go to the Chuanhai Materials Research Institute to discuss the relevant details at that time." ”
Someone sends him money, and he certainly won't refuse.
After all, there are many places that need money to engage in scientific research, whether it is Chuanhai Materials Research Institute or Chuanhai Network Technology Co., Ltd., they need a lot of capital to invest and support.
Zeng Yuqun nodded with a smile, stood up and said, "That's for sure, I won't bother your research work much today, Academician Xu." ”
Xu Chuan got up and sent the person to the door: "Walk slowly." ”
After sending Zeng Yuqun away, Xu Chuan returned to his office, sat at his desk, picked up the mathematics journal and continued to read, thinking about it from time to time, and checking it on the manuscript paper with a pen.
At this time, an email suddenly popped up in the lower right corner of the computer.
"Ding, you have an email of concern."
The crisp voice interrupted Xu Chuan's reading, and when he put down the journal paper in his hand, he reached out and clicked the mouse.
There are only a few people who can be followed by him as a star email, and I don't know who sent the email.
The header and sender of the message are visible.
"Dude! Praise me! ”
Seeing the email title and sender, Xu Chuan couldn't help but put some smiles on his face.
Xu Xiao's girl's email hasn't been received for a long time.
And this title.
Thinking about it, Xu Chuan clicked on the email, and there was nothing in the email, only a link.
He clicked in, and the link led to a report.
"Recently, a team from the Institute of Neuroscience at Mizuki University published a paper in the journal Science, reporting a method to form a certain vision by implanting electrodes in the brains of monkeys and then without passing through the retina."
While this may not be the first time similar techniques have been used, the researchers have made unprecedented progress on several key parameters. The sensors implanted in the monkey's brain have 1,024 electrodes and produce analog visual signals with high resolution, which can allow monkeys to recognize English letters on the screen. ”
"This technology holds great promise for people who have lost their vision, and as long as special sensors are implanted in the brain, it is possible to feel visual signals without relying on their eyes."
"There is no doubt that this research has laid the foundation for the application of neuroprosthetic devices. In the future, such technologies may be able to help people who are completely blind regain functional vision, perform applications such as object recognition and navigation in unfamiliar environments, and improve their autonomy in life. ”
“.”
In addition, according to an interview with our reporter, Professor Fu Wei, the person in charge of the project, said that in this research, it was not himself who made the greatest contribution, but his student Xu Xiao.
"The student has made a great contribution to the project, redesigning a complete mathematical model for the array composed of multiple electrodes, which can greatly stabilize the stability of EEG signals and the resolution of artificial images."
"It is understood that Xu Xiao, who is studying at Mizuki University, is only 22 years old this year, and for a student, this should be the stage of learning, but she has already walked a long distance on the road of scientific research."
Of course, this is inseparable from her home education. According to this station, Xu Xiao, who has made significant contributions to the project this time, is the sister of Academician Xu Chuan, a famous scientist in China. ”
"A twin, all embarked on the road of scientist research, I have to say, the power of example is infinite!"
