Material Empire

It is not a trivial matter for a local capitalist to threaten to help the military industrial unit earn money. While holding Qin Hai steady, Gu Qinyuan quickly reported the news to the leader of 70X Institute. With a half-suspicious mentality, the leader asked people to do a brief investigation, and the results that came back made everyone break out in a cold sweat.

1, 2, 3... How many zeros are there? Director Xu Guoquan pointed at the numbers on the investigation report, and for a long time couldn't figure out how many zeros there were.

There are 9 zeros in total, which is 1 billion. Secretary Zhang Peng reported to Xu Guoquanhui in a polite manner.

That is to say, this Qin Hai has earned 1 billion yuan through the production and export of thermal spraying machines? Xu Guoquan was surprised. As the director of a scientific research institute, he didn't even know the numbers, but I was frightened by this number just now, and I couldn't believe my eyes.

Zhang Peng reminded in a low voice: Here is the US dollar... We don't have a deep understanding of the specific figure. The 1 billion US dollar is an estimated figure, and it may actually be more than this.

All this money belongs to Qin Hai himself? Gu Qinyuan was also shocked by this figure, and he carefully asked for proof.

Zhang Pengdao: We have learned that Qin Hai is the patent owner of thermal spraying technology. After the thermal spraying machine was put into production, he bought Qingfeng Agricultural Machinery Factory, which specializes in the production of thermal spraying machines, so all the income should belong to him personally. Yes. According to our guess, the production cost of the thermal spraying machine is less than 10% of the sales price, that is to say, out of the 1 billion US dollars, Qin Hai’s personal profit is more than 900 million US dollars.”

900 million U.S. dollars, or more than 3 billion yuan, this...is this several times more than our entire system's annual expenditure? Xu Guoquan said looking at Gu Qinyuan.

Gu Qinyuan nodded: It should be, no wonder when he, Xiao Li, and Xiao Wu came from Anhe, he paid for their plane tickets with his own money, and I still feel embarrassed...

What's the matter, I'm sorry, an air ticket is nothing more than a hair to Qin Hai. Damn, these big money in the local area can be so rich, is this still socialism? Xu Guoquan muttered dissatisfied stand up.

Gu Qinyuan said: I think this little Qin is pretty good. No matter how much money he earns, he relies on his own skills, not by speculation. In addition, he earned the money from foreigners. Earning our country's money, from this point of view, he is much better than many big money.

That's true. Xu Guoquan began to calm down, Since this guy is so rich, why did he come to our 70X office?

He said that he wanted to make some contributions to the cause of national defense, and he also said that this is the duty of every common people. Gu Qinyuan explained.

Xu Guoquan said with a smile: Haha, if someone else said that, I wouldn't believe it. However, this Qin Hai said that, I really believe it to a certain extent. Think about it, he is a billionaire, and he definitely wouldn't want to get money from us. What benefits did he get? He was able to buy a plane ticket all the way to our place, and it seems that he has some awareness.

Zhang Peng came up with an idea: Director Xu, Mr. Gu, you see, since Qin Hai is so rich and supports the military industry, can we ask him to sponsor us and help improve everyone's lives? That's fine too.

I can't say that. The leaders in our firm don't seem to be good at things like soliciting sponsors. Xu Guoquan said with some embarrassment. Xu Guoquan was really embarrassed to beg others to donate money with a face.

Gu Qinyuan said: It's definitely inappropriate to sponsor Qin Haila. I don't agree with this approach. However, he offered to help us earn money. I think we can give it a try. With his status, this kind of It’s not like talking casually, is it?”

What does he want to do? Xu Guoquan asked.

Gu Qinyuan said: He told me that he can cooperate with us to develop several cutting-edge products and earn some money in the international market. He also said that some things are not suitable for him to do in his capacity, but we do it in the military industry system. It doesn't matter.

Cutting-edge product? Xu Guoquan frowned, Can this cutting-edge product be developed if he wants to? How sure can he be?

Gu Qinyuan said: According to what he said, it seems that he has a chance to win. However, he hopes that we will give him an authorization to develop these products and sell them in our name.

Xu Guoquan thought for a while, and said: This thing can be done. Judging from the fact that he is engaged in thermal spraying machines, he should be a very capable person, and we deserve to trust him. If he can help us create a For such a good product as the thermal spraying machine, we don’t expect to earn 1 billion dollars, as long as there is one tenth, no, as long as there is one percent, that is 10 million dollars, which is enough for us to turn around .”

Then I should go and inform him now? Gu Qinyuan beamed with joy, and immediately wanted to find Qin Hai.

Xu Guoquan waved his hand and said: This is just my personal opinion, and I have to discuss it collectively at the work meeting. In addition, it is not something we can decide on our own if we want to cooperate with the local government. We need to ask the National Defense Industry Office for instructions. .”

Okay, I see. Gu Qinyuan nodded and said.

When it comes to asking the higher authorities for instructions, it is not possible to get results in three or two days. It was impossible for Qin Hai to wait for the other party's reply in the 70X office. After helping Gu Qinyuan and the others solve the technical problem of ferrite material spraying, he took his leave first and left. He told Gu Qinyuan that he would contact him after the superior had a reply.

Coming out of Tongjiang, Qin Hai didn't go back to Anhe, but went directly to Pujiang and came to Haijie Company.

I heard that you have gone to Tongjiang. Do you have any big projects? Seeing Qin Hai, Xia Yangjie asked curiously.

It's not a project, but I went to 70X Institute to help them solve some thermal spraying process problems. Qin Hai said.

Xia Yangjie said with a smile: Such a technical problem requires you, Mr. Qin, to take the lead. Isn't this a sledgehammer?

Qin Haidao: They are a military industry department, and they have some confidentiality requirements. It may not be suitable for others to go. In addition, I also want to learn about their research and see where I can help them.

Xia Yangjie said: I heard that the budget of the military industry system has been greatly reduced, and many projects have been put on hold.

That's why I came to you. Qin Hai said.

For this? Looking for me? Xia Yangjie was a little confused, What do I have to do with military industry?

Qin Haidao: I went to the 70X Institute, and what I saw was exactly the same as what you said. The state's appropriation has been greatly reduced, and now they can't even afford living security, let alone conduct research. A large group of top experts in the country, You can only do some theoretical research all day long, and you don’t have money for experiments, so it’s a waste.”

I said, you don't want to poach their corners, do you? Xia Yangjie said with a smile, Are you making connections in private again, trying to lure people to the School of Materials?

Qin Hai shook his head again and again: I don't have the guts to destroy the Great Wall of Steel. That's a serious crime. I just want to help them. I told them that if they agree, I can make some products with them. Go to the international market to make some money.

You are so full of sympathy, the military can still send you this little money. Xia Yangjie joked.

Qin Haidao: I've learned about it. Now they rely on their subordinate factories to produce some civilian products to subsidize their expenses. But those civilian products they make are really horrible. Not to mention the technical content, the appearance and the like are also ugly. It’s no wonder it’s sold. I plan to design a few good products for them, and they must be able to enter the international market.”

So, you really want to do business with the military? Xia Yangjie began to ask seriously, Xiao Qin, will this have any impact on us?

Qin Haidao: I've thought about it. Cooperating with the military is only good for us and has no harm. We are a private enterprise. Once we grow bigger, we will inevitably be missed by others, just like the small yamen in Beixi in the past. The special steel factory has the same idea. If we want to protect ourselves, we must find a backer. Anhe Province can be regarded as one of my backers. Director Yang and Minister Cui of the Machinery Committee will also help us. However, if we can rely on The military, our confidence is even stronger.

That's true. Xia Yangjie nodded. In the early 1990s, the state's policies were in a period of swings, and the attitude towards the private economy was very conservative, and even showed some signs of tightening up the policies. Many private entrepreneurs were trembling, for fear that changes in policies would endanger their lives. property and personal safety. Qin Hai established a relationship with the military in this way, but it was also a means of self-protection.

You haven't said, why is this matter related to me. Xia Yangjie remembered the previous topic and asked Qin Hai.

Qin Haidao: I thought of a good product, which is suitable for cooperation with the military. However, there are some technical problems in the middle, which may require you to solve.

What product? Xia Yangjie came alive. He knows that the products that Qin Hai can think of are often very interesting things, which are worth his energy to study.

Qin Haidao: Lao Xia, you are an expert in fiber, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber, have you studied it?

It goes without saying. Xia Yangjie said proudly, Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber is one of the three hot spots in the international fiber industry today. Can I not pay attention? Why, the product you mentioned is this?

Exactly, as far as I know, so far, the industrial production of this fiber is still a difficult problem. If we can solve this problem first, we will be able to occupy a leading position. Can you imagine its market value? Qin Hai said.

These chapters are difficult to write, and some technical concepts are also troublesome to look up, so I can't write quickly.

In addition, I want to explain that some black technologies developed by the protagonist may not be able to match reality, because when it comes to cutting-edge fields, Cheng Zi dare not say which technology is truly advanced. Everyone just read the novel as a novel. Don't use the conclusion in the novel to apply for the Natural Science Fund...

Today, I asked for a monthly ticket in the single chapter. The students were very helpful. They cast more than 400 votes in one day, and they have successfully made the book break into the top six in the city. If this position can be maintained, Orange will be able to get a bonus of 1,000 yuan. However, the enemy will not be willing to fail. Tomorrow's monthly ticket battle will be even more brutal. I implore everyone to continue to provide fire support.

Thank you Orange.
