Chapter 546: U.S. Patents
(I did my best to keep the two chapters in unison, and I have been updating them for more than 270 consecutive days, and I have never asked for leave.) Please vote for those who like small works, thank you!)
The night was deeper, and the frost was cold to the bone......
The two teenagers ignored it completely, and Shen Xiaorong asked, "Will you write to me?"
"No, I don't want to waste time, and I don't want you to waste time, it's not easy to have the opportunity to travel across the ocean to study, and it's most important to learn more advanced knowledge from others. ”
Shen Xiaorong was silent, as if her eyes were foggy......
"It's not early, let's go back and rest!"
"Well, we have to leave tomorrow morning!"
"I know, I'll come to see you off!"
"I don't know when I'll be able to come back. ”
"You don't have to worry about it, the feeling of not being bad for money is actually quite cool, and you can come back during the summer vacation.
It doesn't have to be summer vacation, as long as there is more than a week off, you can come back. ”
The desolate atmosphere was deliberately ruined by Huang Han, and Shen Xiaorong said leisurely: "You are planning to let me have money, is it so that I can fly over the Pacific Ocean as I want!"
"No! I don't think people like you should worry about money. ”
"What's wrong with me?"
"You are a genius in learning, and it is not worth spending your time working part-time jobs at KFC or McDonald's to earn tuition. ”
"You say that again, I always thought you were a genius!"
"I can't, remember, you're the best!"
"Thank you for your encouragement, I will work hard, and you have to work hard!"
"That's a must, I can't be much worse than you!"
"I ...... I'm going upstairs!"
"Go ahead, get a good night's sleep, it's quite tiring from jet lag. ”
"Go back, goodbye!"
"I'll see you tomorrow morning!"
Shen Xiaorong tiptoed back to the room, preparing to go to bed immediately and take a shower tomorrow morning, so as not to wake up Qin Shujie.
Who knew that Qin Shujie was not asleep, she suddenly spoke: "Xiaorong, I really didn't expect Huang Han to have a talent for design, those travel bags and boxes that can be pulled and walked with small wheels are really creative." ”
"You haven't slept yet, and you've scared me. ”
"Alas, I can't get jet lag, I'm tired, I just can't sleep after tossing and turning. I've been thinking about Huang Han's designs. ”
"Auntie, you have been in the United States for seven or eight years, haven't you seen the kind of travel bag that can be pulled and walked, and the trolley suitcase that Huang Han said?"
"I've seen a box that can be pulled with a strap before, and it's not good to compare it with Huang Han's design. ”
"Ahh
"Why didn't I think of that?"
Qin Shujie suddenly sat up with an excited face.
Shen Xiaorong was stunned and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Since the trolley box is Huang Han's exclusive invention, we should apply for a patent for him.
Hahaha...... , we owe Huang Han a lot of favors, and we don't know how to pay it back. When we returned to the U.S., I applied for a patent for him in the U.S. If it succeeds, the great favor will be returned. ”
Why did she go to the United States to apply for a patent? That is because Qin Shujie knew that New China did not have a patent protection law, and there was no place to apply for patents.
Shen Xiaorong didn't understand this, and wondered: "Is the patent important?"
"Of course it's important, Huang Han has this patent, and the value is probably tens of millions of dollars. ”
"Patents are so valuable!"
"Of course, I will raise the price of the quotation given by Huang Han by 10% and then say, this is a patented product, it shouldn't be so cheap. ”
"Are you going to raise the price for the company you work for to buy Huang Han's products?"
"Yankee's company makes money black, spending a dollar to buy Chinese goods, at least three dollars, of course I prefer Chinese to make more money." ”
"Not necessarily, I'm afraid you're willing to let Huang Han's family make more money!"
"Isn't the Huang Han family Chinese? Then blame me for a lot of things, forget it! Don't help him." Save yourself from worrying. ”
"Auntie, I was wrong, Auntie, you are the best......" Shen Xiaorong got into Qin Shujie's quilt and began to cling.
"You ghost spirit!" Qin Shujie scratched Shen Xiaorong's nose with her fingers and said with a smile.
With the expectation of applying for a patent, Qin Shujie is more optimistic about the "Fengpai" trolley box series, she not only wants to apply for a patent in the United States, but also helps Huang Han register a trademark in the United States.
For this reason, she called Huang Han early in the morning to talk in detail, and added some necessary explanatory materials for the procedures.
Huang Han has always been full of confidence in this product, and the bags produced by the "Fresh Air Clothing and Luggage Factory" have been pressing inventory in the past six months, but he didn't think of going to the United States to apply for a patent.
In fact, if it weren't for Shen Xiaorong's matchmaking and meeting Qin Shujie, who is engaged in international trade in the United States, Huang Han would not have been able to go to the United States to apply for a patent.
Now after being woken up by Qin Shujie, his mind is a little messy, and he has been thinking about what new inventions he still knows.
Seeing that Huang Han was distracted, Shen Xiaorong smiled and said, "It turns out that you also have times when you are not calm!"
"Where, I wondered if I could come up with more unique ideas and products to apply for patents in the United States. ”
Qin Shujie couldn't cry or laugh, and said, "Do you think the only thing that the patent needs is to buy Chinese cabbage?"
"Hehe!" Huang Han laughed dryly twice, and changed the topic: "Auntie, you just go through the formalities to take away all the inventory that has been produced by my family, as for when to pay off the goods, don't worry." ”
Huang Han's assumption is that it will take time to go through the export procedures, and it will take time for the container to arrive in the United States, which is estimated to be about the same in one or two months.
With this time, it was enough for Qin Shujie and her colleagues to contact dealers and wholesalers.
Huang Han knew that the company where Qin Shujie worked was originally an agent for bags, clothing, silk and so on.
There are only five or six hundred thousand US dollars in stock, and Qin Shujie took the lead in issuing a notice to the distributor, believing that the shipment will be completed in a few days.
As for whether to ask the company for instructions, it is not a matter, because Huang Han's side can sign a contract without paying a deposit for delivery.
If you don't give money to get the goods, there is no risk here, and if the person in charge of the company refuses to complete such a transaction, you can directly pull it out and kill it, so as not to waste food.
This time it was a special situation, and it was also because Qin Shujie refused to swallow nearly one million dollars to gain Huang Han's trust.
In the future, international trade must be done in accordance with the rules, and the stupid thing of shipping without giving a deposit will never be done.
Qin Shujie did not agree with Huang Han's decision, she said:
"I am not in a hurry at this time, as soon as Shen Xiaorong and I returned to Hangzhou, we entrusted the agency to buy a ticket to the United States, I have samples, photos, drawings and a certificate of entrustment signed by you, I believe that I can successfully get the patent.
When the formalities are in hand, I will contact the 'Fengpai' clothing and luggage factory in the name of the company, and then it will be more secure to go through the export procedures. ”
"Auntie, my idea is this, this batch of goods was originally used with my family's funds to press the inventory, and after selling this batch of goods for US dollars, don't complete the settlement for the time being. You take the money and then talk about the joint venture. ”
"Do you mean that the principal I want to act as an agent is $500,000 plus this batch of payments?"
"That's right, the bigger the principal, the bigger the face, you find a yellow-haired and blue-eyed Yankee performance funder, and you will be the capital client in the future.
When Sanshui County learns that the United States has come up with more than $1 million, I am afraid that it will be very excited, for fear that you will run to find another family, and the next negotiations will definitely be much easier. ”
"Ho, I don't see you're still a conspirator!"
"Where is this conspiracy, it is completely a conspiracy, my family is creating conditions without conditions, the purpose is to make our company bigger and stronger. Isn't this serving the country by industry?"
"Alas, you know my situation, I know the situation in China too well, I just can't stand the officialdom and the efficiency of work, so I decided to stay in the United States for development. ”
"Auntie, I know the main reason, you actually refuse to work and live with a mask, and you don't agree to allow your grandfather to return to China as a national cadre. ”
"Alas! My character, who is not pleasing to the eye, is the material for being a cadre? If I become a person, I can only bring embarrassment to your eldest and second uncles. Let your grandfather down even more. ”
So that's the case, no wonder she, the second generation of officials with a master's degree, gave up her career.
Huang Han said: "Different paths lead to the same end, now reform and opening up is in full swing, and engaging in trade can actually better serve the people." ”
Qin Shujie didn't refute, and said, "It's almost eight o'clock, we have to go." ”
"The car has already come, and I have prepared some souvenirs, which will be a minute when you return to Hangzhou. ”
The current Qin Shujie and Huang Han are partners, she did not refuse, thanked her and accepted it calmly.
Qin Shujie's opinion of Huang Han has changed greatly, but she is not optimistic about what can be between Shen Xiaorong and Huang Han at all.
She has been in the United States for many years, and she doesn't know that the world of flowers will change many people.
Even though Qin Shujie is willing to have a Chinese boyfriend in the future, who can say this kind of thing well?
"Big brother, the car has gone away, let's go back!" Qian Aiguo looked at Huang Handao, who was still standing in the cold wind.
Cheng Wenge and Qian Aiguo are different from Zhang Chunmei, Wang Huiling and other children, they can't do housework at all, even if it is already the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, they still follow Huang Han all day long.
Seeing that Huang Han didn't react, Qian Aiguo said again: "Big brother, let's go back and try the video recorder that Aunt Shen Xiaorong brought back to you, okay?"
Qin Shujie knows that domestic electrical products are expensive, and she will buy some and bring them back every time she comes back, of course, they are all consignments.
This VCR was brought with her to Huang Han, and she also brought Huang Han fifty rolls of Kodak color film.
She knew that Huang Han often participated in the filming of promotional videos, and told Huang Han that the next time she came to Sanshui County, she would buy a video camera and some videotapes.
Huang Han said: "It's cold and I want to sweat, Qian Aiguo, Chengwen Pavilion, how about we go to the hotel activity room to have a good fight?"
In order to prevent injuries during sparring exercises, Huang Han, who had a lot of money last fall, built a 50-square-meter fighting room in the hotel's activity room, with mats on the ground and soft bags on the walls.
The teenagers who practiced changed into protective clothing, put on boxing covers and protective gear, and the fight was completely real, which was quite enjoyable.
Not only Huang Han, Cheng Wenge, Qian Aiguo, Liu Xiaoming, and Lu Bin like it, but almost all the teenagers who recognize Qian Aiguo as their eldest brother and practice martial arts with him want to come here to have a good time.
But it's not like you can come here if you want to, Qian Aiguo is measured, and he only brings four or five teenagers to practice for a few hours a week.
If you don't control the number of people, the fighting room can be full every day.
Qian Aiguo must be treated differently when selecting people, and only classmates who study seriously and are close to him have a chance.
It is Qian Aiguo's nature to love to fight, and he especially likes to fight against Huang Han or Cheng Wenge.
Because in front of other teenagers who practice martial arts, Qian Aiguo is the master and the eldest brother, and it is impossible to do his best when practicing with him.
Seeing that Huang Han was going to the fighting room to loosen his muscles, Qian Aiguo was overjoyed, and said: "Let's take turns to fight, and go to the bath after sweating, there are too many people in the bathhouse in the past two days, it should be better in the morning." ”
This is also one of the characteristics of Sanshui County, because everyone has to take a "yuan treasure bath", and in the first few days of the New Year, the bathroom will increase its business hours, opening 24 hours from the 27th of the lunar month until 10 am on the 30th day of the Chinese New Year's Eve.
The confrontation between Huang Han and the three of them was quite fierce, and when Huang Han bragged in the past, saying that his weight and height were about the same as Qian Aiguo, one person could beat two of him.
Facts have proved that it can't be done, Qian Aiguo is quite resistant to beating, and every time he fights with Huang Han, even if Huang Han wins, he just holds on.
The rules of the fighting room, whoever is so tired that he can't get up will lose.
After a good fight, the evil fire in Huang Han's original heart dissipated, and when he soaked in the bath, it was already light and light.
The psychological age of knowing the destiny of heaven is very pragmatic, and there is a hard injury, which is too practical, and I don't believe in the alliance.
Shen Xiaorong should be a meteor crossed by the experimental elementary school, gorgeous and out of reach.
However, Huang Han should be within reach, but he is only willing to stop at friendship and is unwilling to go further......
Cheng Wenge is honest, he actually likes to see Huang Han and Shen Xiaorong together, and seeing that Huang Han is silent, he is also silent next to him.
Qian Aiguo was different, he wanted to say something to distract Huang Han's attention and deliberately chattered.
The jeep was staggering on the national highway to Hangzhou, and the Chinese New Year was coming soon, and there were many fewer trucks on the national highway, which was relatively smooth, and Feng Xinhua was able to maintain a speed of forty or fifty kilometers per hour.
Of course, Qin Shujie and Shen Xiaorong didn't feel more timid about their hometowns, they were both very excited.
Because they didn't tell their families that they would go home for the New Year this year, they were carrying out a surprise attack, ready to surprise the whole family.
The two of them were actually struggling with one thing, and they had been discussing whether to tell their family, and they helped Huang Han win money in gambling and shared nearly 300,000 US dollars.
Qin Shujie and Qin Shuzhen have a deep sisterhood, and they used to talk about everything, otherwise Qin Shujie would not have tried her best to support Shen Xiaorong and Shen Xiaofeng to study in the United States.
She thinks that these two children have a talent for learning and will definitely be able to learn advanced knowledge, in order to do this, Qin Shujie spent a lot of energy and money.
It stands to reason that the whole family will know that she is going to work hard in the United States to make more money.
If she flies back again after only half a year, and it is two people back, the family will definitely complain that she wasted thousands of dollars on airfare.
