The leisurely life of rebirth

Chapter 45: A new member of the family

In the end, Fang Monan didn't ask for Douzhi. Through the glass, they saw a tall and thin man in a suit trotting in from the outside with a handbag. He stood in front of the foyer and looked around for a while, and then went straight to the direction.

Murnane and his friends came to the table.

"Mr. Cheng, I'm sorry, I wasted time while crossing the border." The man took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his head, and said to Cheng Shigui.

"These are..." He stood awkwardly, "I, Jinhua."

"Ham" Fang Monan said, he quickly covered his mouth and waved his hands to express his apology.

"Haha... my little sister knows so much. Yes, my ancestral home is Jinhua, Zhejiang. I went to Hong Kong before liberation. My grandfather missed his hometown, and because his surname is Jin..." Jinhua said with a smile, [

"Jinhua ham really leaves the eater with a lingering aftertaste. The skin of Jinhua ham is yellow and bright, shaped like a pipa, and the meat is rosy in color. It has a rich aroma, is rich in nutrients, and is delicious. It is famous for its "four unique features" of color, aroma, taste, and shape.

"Fang Monan muttered. She even bought some in Shanghai.

"It's so famous and delicious." Han Zhiqian asked.

"Well! We bought some on the way, but it's a pity that it's not convenient at home, so we can't cook and eat it," Fang Monan said.

"That's such a pity!" Han Zhiqian looked disappointed.

"Ahem...Business matters." Cheng Shigui cleared his throat and reminded the two people who had forgotten business for the sake of food.

"Haha...I'm so sorry." Han Zhiqian said with a smile.

"It's okay! Jinhua ham is indeed famous." Jinhua said. After all, he has seen its true charm, so it's not surprising!

"These are Fang Monan, Lin Qingshan, Qi Qiushi, and Han Zhiqian." Cheng Shigui introduced. He chatted a few words and enhanced the emotion.

"Sit down!" Han Zhiqian stood up and asked him to sit down.

Since he had no job and had a child, Jinhua didn't know how to address him, so he addressed him as Mr. Everyone bowed and shook hands to greet him.

"It's a great honor to be able to ask Mr. Jin to help us apply for agency." Qi Qiushi said that this was something they had discussed in advance and wanted him to experience it personally.

"Yes, yes, it is my honor to serve Mr. Qi." Mr. Cheng introduced, could he be a small person? "Mr. Qi is young and promising, and he will definitely have a bright future."

"This is the introduction to the product we applied for patent for. Please take a look at it." Qi Qiushi handed the information to him.

He looked through the information and said, "There is too much information. You need to conduct a patent search to find out the details. Sometimes, someone else may have applied for a patent for a product, but it has not been put on the market. In this case,

Next, your patent application is also valid."

"We understand that it is not convenient to conduct patent searches in the mainland, so we need to trouble you to handle these things together. So I have to ask you to help with these things." Mr. Lin said.

"This is what I do." Jin Hua said seriously, this is his usual job.

Mr. Lin asked Jinhua some patent issues again, and it was introduced by Cheng Shigui. Both parties were very satisfied. They signed an agency contract, not only the four-leaf ceiling fan lamp, the five-blade ceiling fan lamp, but also the patents and design drawings that Mr. Lin wanted to apply for.

It was handed over to him along with some other documents. Both parties signed the agreement and filled out the required forms.

"As for the patent fees," Cheng Shigui said.

"How dare I ask Mr. Cheng for money!" Jinhua flattered.[

"Okay, someone from Hong Kong will give it to you." Cheng Shigui said.

Jinhua went back satisfied. Not only did he earn thousands of dollars this time, but he also attracted Mr. Cheng's attention and his future was limitless.

Fang Monan looked at his retreating back, and they also got up and left. When she returned to the room, she felt a little disappointed, "What's wrong, Nan Nan? Isn't it right? The patent application has been approved, why aren't you happy?" Cheng Shigui asked.

"Brother Cheng, do you think I should be happy?" Fang Monan asked.

Cheng Shigui thought about it carefully: "In the past two years, traveling between the two places, I have observed that many domestic companies do not cherish their unique technologies, and some unscrupulous foreign manufacturers have focused on domestic technologies and are using various methods to

They use despicable means to steal these patented technologies and register them in their own names. Once they succeed, we will have to pay for our own technology to others. This problem is no small matter."

"Ah! What are the consequences of their preemptive registration?" Qi Qiushi asked curiously. In his opinion, registering a patent is not cost-effective at all.

"The consequences are very serious. When it comes to international patent applications, no matter whether you are clear about it or not, people just follow the procedures. Although it is not very rigid to determine the ownership of the patent based on the order, just like the one you just applied for, if

If we don’t apply, then we have to pay patent royalties to others for the products we produce. And royalties are sometimes a big deal,” said Han Zhiqian.

"There are too many of these things, especially the unkind little devils who, under the pretext of Sino-Japanese cultural exchanges, stole your technology and registered it themselves. Such as: rice paper, wolf hair, Hui ink, porcelain. Anyway, there are only things you can't think of, without them

It can't be done." Fang Monan paused, "This is just technology flow, and there are countless trademarks. Since it has just been opened up, and they don't understand the rules set by others, some companies feel that it is not cost-effective to spend a lot of money to register abroad.

, it was only when I went abroad that I realized there was a way out."

"What do you mean by saying this?" Qi Qiushi asked.

"Hero's Golden Pen, Wuliangye Liquor, Maotai Liquor, Chinese time-honored brands, places of interest...it's endless." Fang Monan counted, feeling helpless and sad.

"Then why don't they register?" Qi Qiushi said naturally.

"Do you know how much it cost us to register the patent just now?" Han Zhiqian said as if you were innocent. "4,000 US dollars."

"My dear."

"This is just the registration fee, and then you have to pay an annual fee every year." Han Zhiqian added.

"My God, given the current conditions, the cost is too high." Qi Qiushi smacked his tongue.

"It's not a question of height, but a question of concept. You know Japan's Panasonic Electric!" Cheng Shigui saw them nodding and said, "You know his trademark is registered in more than 180 countries."

"That would be an astronomical figure." Qi Qiuzhi thought in his mind. "If you don't register, the loss will be even greater. I understand."

"I've checked the market in the past few days, and our ceiling fans are the best in terms of appearance and energy efficiency. But I'm worried about domestic purchasing power." Qi Qiushi thought for a while and said.

Fang Monan and Mr. Lin looked at each other and smiled. It seemed that he had begun to get into the role.

"Who said we were going to sell it in China?" Han Zhiqian said. "The little devil and Uncle Sam are very rich. We will export it and we will help you with the order."

"Yes! The little devils are very rich, and they are clamoring to buy the United States." Cheng Shigui said.

"That's good. I can't sit still now. Can I go home right away?" Qi Qiushi said with a smile.[

"Haha..." Everyone was amused by his anxious look.

******************************

Grandma and the others finally came back after playing all morning. Mobei excitedly shouted about the giant pandas, golden monkeys, South China tigers, elk, Eld's deer, domestic rare animals, chimpanzees, giraffes, African elephants, hippos, etc. that she saw in the park.

Zebras, rhinos, and black swans are rare animals from all continents of the world.

Things were almost done. Fang Monan and the others decided to leave early for the capital. When they called their mother at home, they learned that their aunt's admission notice had come out. Both provincial universities and Peking University had sent their admission notices, asking her to take good care of herself.

Think about it and decide which school to attend.

After receiving the news, Fang Monan and the others were extremely happy, and their aunt was so excited that she cried. Cheng Shigui proposed a celebration, which was unanimously responded to. Finally, they ate at the buffet in the hotel's Western restaurant, where they could eat whatever they wanted.

"Nannan, Mobei will be delayed due to the existing conditions in the country. I think Uncle Lin has already taught him beyond his ability." Cheng Shigui and Fang Monan were sitting in a corner of the restaurant talking quietly.

"Yeah! I know this. Let's wait another two years and wait until we are older." Fang Monan put down the cake in his hand, frowned and let go.

"In fact, we can let her participate in the International Youth Violin Competition first. Anyway, she is still young and it is still early for school. It would be better if she can be favored by a famous teacher. If not, it will be easier to change careers." Cheng Shigui said after thinking.

"Now it's time to find a good teacher for her." Fang Monan raised his eyebrows and said, "Here's this one! I'll help you."

"Haha... After listening to Mobei's street performance, I have found a teacher for her. He is a child of a musical family. We are neighbors at the Royal Conservatory of Music. He is older than me and has a small reputation in the world. He has also won the

..." Cheng Shigui continued to count his names.

"Wait a minute, if he's as good as you say, why would he come to teach Mobei? Is there something wrong with him?" Fang Monan heard his rude interruption and expressed his doubts. He was young, rich and famous.

It should be very popular, and it won't be reduced to teaching children.

Cheng Shigui smiled and patted the horse and said: "Nannan, you are wise." He said with compassion: "You know that since we are a musical family, the heirs will be the survival of the fittest, so..." He felt sad.

"You mean, he is the one who was exiled." Fang Monan guessed, and it was confirmed, "He will agree."

"It's probably time for him to arrive." Cheng Shigui raised his wrist, looked at his watch, and counted the time.

"He was not shaken to the core by the blow. He became cynical and turned towards the angry youth..." Fang Monan asked worriedly.

"Nannan, it's not that serious! Then he's here, you can see for yourself." Cheng Shigui pointed at the person standing at the door of the restaurant and said, he was not so sure at first glance.

I saw that the person who came was unshaven, covering half of his face, and his clothes were hanging on his body as if they hadn't been washed for hundreds of years. "Oh my God, Leonard, you...how...you...have become like this." Cheng Shigui said.

In a secluded corner.

"Oh my god! What happened?" Cheng Shigui asked worriedly. On the phone, he just asked him to help find a violin teacher to teach children. Unexpectedly, Leonard said that he would come to teach in person. He thought Leonard was just joking.

. I just worriedly asked him if there was anything wrong. He said it was okay, but he didn’t take it to heart. It seemed that what Nannan said didn’t make sense.

"It's nothing. I'm very good now. I don't have to practice piano for many years, no matter how cold or hot it is. It's great." Leonard said as if he was very good now. There was nothing wrong with him.

"That's your favorite violin." Cheng Shigui looked at him and said with some sadness.

"So what." Leonard said.

"Where's Alice?" Cheng Shigui asked.

Just when Cheng Shigui thought he wouldn't answer yes, a low and depressed voice sounded.

"Oh! She is married now and the groom is not me." Leonard said leisurely while looking at the white clouds outside.

"Tsk, tsk... you are really good at it." Fang Monan curled her lips disdainfully and looked at Cheng Shigui, "Are you sure you want her to be Mobei's teacher?" She said worriedly.

"This..." Cheng Shigui looked at this and then that hesitantly.

Fang Monan looked at this man named Leonard, who was about thirty years old and about 1.9 meters tall. He had dark brown hair, gray-blue eyes, deep facial features, and a typical foreign devil look and manner that was very noble.

"She is my student." Leonard looked at Cheng Shigui and asked. "She speaks English well."

"Your Chinese is not bad," Fang Monan said.

"Don't the Chinese value respecting teachers the most?" Leonard provoked. Being looked down upon by a little girl, he became increasingly angry.

"Hey!" Fang Monan didn't expect that he still had fighting ability, "You are not my teacher yet..." The implication is that whether I respect you or not depends on the situation.

"'Nannan', don't be like him." Cheng Shigui said nothing, but when he spoke, Leonard was completely offended.

"Matthew, let's still be friends! Why do you say this about me?" Leonard said angrily: "He's just a child, I can definitely teach him." He doesn't want to go home now, so just treat him as an escape. He just wants to

take a break.

"Are you sure he can live in my house?" Fang Monan looked at Cheng Shigui, then at him and said, "My house doesn't have a flush toilet, and it's not convenient to take a bath. Also..."

Leonard said before she could finish her words: "If you can live in it, I can live in it."

Cheng Shigui clasped his hands together and asked Fang Monan not to hit him with words, "'Nannan', he is really good."

"Forget it, let's take a look first and then talk." Fang Monan looked at his request and gave it a try first!

Fang Monan introduced the new members to everyone, and everything went smoothly. Next, they went north to the capital. Mr. Lin and Qi Qiushi left the team to find molds for four or five fan blades. Before leaving, my aunt was looking forward to it and worried.

Her eyes showed that Qi Qiushi told her the ins and outs of the matter, and the look of reluctance between the two of them when they parted showed that things between them had not gone bad.

In order not to waste time, Fang Monan and the others decided to fly to the capital. Cheng Shigui held the hotel design drawings given to him by Fang Monan in his hand and looked at the plane disappearing in the blue sky. Sitting in the car, he and Han Zhiqian carefully turned over the

Look, not to mention the latecomers, but certainly the ancients, they have also stayed in well-known hotels. They have never been as environmentally friendly as she is. It is what she calls an environmentally friendly and energy-saving hotel.

Lingnan is dominated by a subtropical monsoon climate. With the tilt of national policies, a large number of people are pouring into the city with the development of the city. The city will become hotter and hotter, and the consumption of resources will cause the electricity and water to increase with the trend. So how to protect the environment and save energy?

That's the key.

“The designed hotel is very modern, but it’s not a combination of Chinese and Western styles.” Han Zhiqian said sincerely. “Looking at the drawings, it’s really beautiful.

"To meet her requirements, we must first collect materials such as solar cells, insulated glass, air circulation systems, large water tanks, and refrigeration systems." Cheng Shigui said, "It's not easy. I don't know if they can be found."

"But if it is really built, it will be the most environmentally friendly building in the world." Han Zhiqian has a feeling of pride that he must build it. The height of the building is not high, it is very ordinary, only ten floors.

"It will definitely cost a lot of money. At this stage, it is better to find materials first!" Cheng Shigui said.

"Yeah!" Han Zhiqian said again: "You have to go to the front office first. What procedures and approvals are needed?" The mainland market is vast, but the procedures are complicated. I can't count how many stamps a project needs. Okay.

They have been here for more than two years, doing as the Romans do and getting to know a lot about them.
