My courtyard shelter

"In addition, there will be a fine of 200 million. Google search reading"

Xu Bin was immediately anxious: "Why do they fine you?"

"It's okay not to pay the fine. Anyway, you have made a lot of money this time. Otherwise, just don't bother. This much money is definitely enough to spend, and I guarantee that no one will pursue your breach of contract liability."

"Can it be fined only half?"

Xu Dong shook his head: "The penalty notice has been issued, how can there be room for negotiation?"

"Old Third, aren't you a major shareholder?"

"My shares are less than 4%, and there is a board of directors above. They can give up the general agent of Sydney, which is already a great honor."

"But 100 million is too much, right?"

Xu Bin was very entangled.

Xu Dong shook his head, indicating that he could do nothing to help.

After the old third made it clear that he was powerless, Xu Bin gritted his teeth and had to accept the reality.

One is short-term interests, and the other is long-term interests. Of course, he knew how to choose.

However, he still didn't give up.

"Old Third, I accept the punishment. Can you help me get more goods?"

Since I can't make huge profits, I'll just sell more at a low profit.

The result is the same.

Xu Dong spread his hands: "The floods in the past few months have had a great impact on the supply chain, especially the shortage of chips. It is estimated that we have to wait until after the New Year."

"How could this be?"

Xu Bin said with disappointment.

If he had known that this would be the result, he shouldn't have been so clever and easily exempted his niece's 200 million loan two days ago.

In fact, if the loan and fine are deducted, he now has only 30 million left, which is just a normal profit.

"Don't be discouraged." Xu Dong hurriedly comforted: "Sydney is such a big market, at least one million sets of game equipment can be sold, you can calculate how much profit you have?"

Xu Bin quickly took out his mobile phone and pressed it.

After fiddling with it, he was instantly surprised:

"Damn, there are 7 billion?"

Xu Dong couldn't help but cover his forehead. The eldest brother's arithmetic is really good. Just think about it and you know that it is impossible to have such a high profit.

However, he didn't intend to correct the other party.

Sometimes being confused is a blessing.

"How is it? Are you tempted?"

Xu Bin nodded repeatedly: "Third brother, my vision is too narrow, and I almost missed the big thing. This fine must be paid. We can't lose the big because of the small."

"Just figure it out yourself."

"Le Le said that their university has free open classes. It seems that I must go to refresh myself, otherwise I can't even understand the business contract, which is too bad."

Xu Bin rekindled his fighting spirit.

"If you want to go, go. If you don't understand anything, you can ask me directly."

Xu Dong looked relieved.

...

Under the strong motivation of "7 billion", Xu Bin devoted himself to learning. In order to facilitate the reference of materials, he even asked his niece to help him apply for a library card of Sydney University.

Although learning was difficult, the progress was obvious.

Then, the days passed quickly.

On February 11, the winter vacation began.

On February 16, there were still two days before the Spring Festival.

Xu Dong unexpectedly received a call from Ye Hui announcing the good news.

"Mr. Ye, what's the good news?"

"Mr. Xu, guess?"

Ye Hui rarely showed her playful side.

"The stock price has reached the daily limit again?"

After Xu Dong finished speaking, he opened the stock trading software.

Without waiting for Ye Hui to answer, he immediately denied his own answer: "No, it only rose by 2% today. Could it be that there are research results?"

"Mr. Xu, congratulations on your correct answer."

"What results have been produced?"

Xu Dong did not show any special excitement.

Basically, a batch of scientific research results will emerge in the laboratory of Xinke Seaweed every once in a while, and the most recent one was just last month.

Under the leadership of Professor Huang, the laboratory successfully developed a special fertilizer for seaweed using volcanic ash, which not only increased the production of seaweed, but also shortened the growth cycle.

In summary, it can reduce the cost by about one-tenth, which is a very remarkable achievement.

It is with this technology that Xinke Seaweed has finally touched the threshold of "turning losses into profits".

Of course, the "turning losses into profits" mentioned here refers to the Asian mutual market, not including foreign countries.

At present, the export of food is strictly prohibited in Asia.

Seaweed powder is also on the banned list.

It is meaningless to talk about foreign trade at this time.

Ye Hui couldn't suppress her joy: "Mr. Xu, before the flood, didn't I report to you about a bold attempt in the laboratory? Do you still remember it?"

"I remember that it seemed to use nuclear wastewater to cause genetic mutations in seaweed..."

"Yes, that's it."

Ye Hui couldn't help interrupting.

"Didn't this project fail?"

Last year's annual report just came out, and Xu Dong is currently studying it carefully, so he remembers it very clearly.

"It originally failed. After all, the success rate is too low, and everyone didn't have much hope at all. But fortunately, Professor Zhuang Mayumi is more careful, and when cleaning up the waste, she actually made a major discovery."

"Huh? It sounds like a Neon person?"

Xu Dong asked.

Ye Hui nodded: "Yes, Professor Zhuang Zhen was originally the chief researcher of Neon Idemitsu Kosan. Later, this company was merged into our company, and the other party joined in. He has been responsible for the equipment management of the laboratory before."

"I remember that Idemitsu Kosan's boss Kishi Natoshi used this company to exchange 1% of our shares. Now it seems that he should have made a profit?"

"More than making a profit, it's a huge profit."

"Really? Can you tell me in detail?"

It was only at this time that Xu Dong really took it seriously.

"I don't know the details. There are too many professional terms. I can only give a rough idea.

Professor Zhuang Zhen successfully cultivated a new variety using the remaining abandoned seaweed. This new variety has a significant advantage, that is, it has a low demand for light sources.

After preliminary calculations, it can reduce costs by about 6%. Combined with Professor Huang's special fertilizer, our company will soon be able to turn losses into profits."

"Are you sure?"

Xu Dong was immediately excited.

Once the new seaweed turns losses into profits, it will definitely usher in a big boom, and the foundation of the old Xu family will be stable.

"There is a 70% to 80% certainty, and the details need further experiments." Ye Hui said cautiously.

"When will the results be available?"

"Professor Huang, Dr. Alex and others plan to work overtime during the Spring Festival, and the final results will be available by the end of April at the latest."

"Thank you for your hard work."

Xu Dong nodded with satisfaction.

"I am not that tired, but the grassroots researchers are. They work overtime almost every day, and this year they can't even take a holiday during the Spring Festival."

"Mr. Ye, please remember that anyone who stays to work overtime during the Spring Festival will be paid five times the salary.

In addition, please tell everyone on my behalf that as long as the experiment is successful and the company turns losses into profits, the equity incentives promised to them will be paid immediately.

As for Professor Mayumi Sho, no matter how the board of directors rewards her, I have decided to give her 0.5% of the shares privately."

Xu Dong ordered.

The reason why he is so generous is, on the one hand, to boost morale; on the other hand, to win people's hearts and avoid being taken advantage of by others.
