When you are rich, there is Rheinmetall; when you are poor, there is Rheinsteel!

Meng Chao felt very uncomfortable being stared at by that calm gaze, because he had always stared at others with this kind of gaze, and no one had ever stared at him with this kind of gaze.

To describe it in one sentence, I feel uncomfortable all over.

He turned away slightly, loosened his tie with his hand, regained his rhythm, and then said loudly: "Your asking price is too high. I have never seen a start-up company dare to ask us for an investment of 30 million." , and we only hold 30% of the shares!”

Lin Yu spread his hands and continued to say with a smile:

"Whether the asking price is high or not depends on whether it matches. If you invest 30 million today, it will become 300 million in the future, or even 3 billion, or it may be 30 billion."

"You invested 30 million today. What you can bring is employment for you."

"Moreover, my company is a technology company, or an orthodox technology company, not the DVD factories you support. To be honest, 90% of the profits are taken by the little devils. I don't even know what kind of factory is built." What’s the use?”

"If it were me, I would close that kind of factory right now, leaving it a waste of resources, a waste of electricity, and no revenue."

The use of a gun and a stick made Meng Chao and the two men on the opposite side look a little embarrassed, because it involved some bad memories.

The so-called DVD is a high-density digital video disc that is better than VCD. Compared with VCD, the image resolution of DVD can reach 720P. Therefore, after the DVD prototype appeared in early 1996, it began to develop rapidly.

As an emerging industrial manufacturing country, China has naturally introduced this technology. Likewise, as a development zone, Shenzhen is also encouraging the development of these technologies.

Moreover, after 1999, the DVD manufacturing industry developed rapidly and captured a considerable share of the global market.

The wasteland is left uncultivated, and the fertile land is disputed.

After the market share reached a certain proportion, starting in 1999, foreign developers who owned some DVD patents began to demand payment of patent fees.

On January 10 this year, the negotiations between the Electronic Audio Industry Association and the Little Devil 6c Alliance on joint licensing of DVD patents broke down.

The customs of European countries took this action and directly seized DVD products exported to Europe in real time on the grounds that DVD manufacturers did not obtain intellectual property rights.

On March 8, the 6c Alliance, headed by Toshiba, issued an ultimatum to more than 100 DVD member companies of the Electronic Audio Industry Association.

An agreement on patent royalties and the 6c Alliance must be reached before March 30, otherwise a lawsuit will be filed.

The condition proposed by the 6c Alliance is to charge patent fees based on 20% of the product unit price of each DVD.

The price of DVDs exported to European and North American countries is about US$100. Based on this price, the royalty fee for each DVD is about US$20.

In other words, domestic companies hired workers, used water and electricity materials, and finally earned only a few yuan per DVD.

However, under this premise, the Electronic Audio Industry Association still reached a consensus with the 6c Alliance and signed a relevant agreement on April 19.

According to reliable internal information, the collection of patent fees began in January 2004.

Unfortunately, there are also several invested DVD production factories in Shenzhen.

Now, although the money has not been collected, it has been poked out in front of someone, which is equivalent to a group of people being slapped in the face like crazy.

Meng Chao didn't want to endure this tone, but he had to endure it because they didn't have the skills.

At this moment, the more he thought about it, the angrier and more frustrated he became. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the young man in front of him was right.

Rather than wasting electricity resources to produce things that are not profitable, it is better to shut down these factories directly to avoid wasting time.

He looked at Wu Tao, his old face slowly turned red, and smoke even appeared on his hair.

Seeing him like this, Wu Tao quickly came behind him and gently tapped his back with his hand to help him relieve his inner anger.

"Don't be angry. What are you going to do if you make your body so angry? Isn't it just a DVD?"

"You still have a mobile phone in front of you, let's find another way."

Under Wu Tao's persuasion, Meng Chao's expression slowly faded and returned to his normal appearance.

He glanced at Lin Yu again, picked up the notebook on the table and stuffed it into his briefcase. He stared at Lin Yu and said loudly: "What you said is right, but I can't make the decision for 30 million. I need to go back and find someone to discuss it." ”

"As for you, I think since you are so confident, you can do well even without our 30 million."

"I go first!"

After carrying the briefcase in his hand and glaring at Lin Yu again, Meng Chao walked out of the office angrily.

"Hey...I...wait for me!" When Wen Dai saw Meng Chao leaving, he quickly grabbed his briefcase and followed.

In the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the corridor.

Looking at the door that was still swinging, Wu Tao put his face in his hands, looking like a child who couldn't be taught.

He turned back to stare at Lin Yu and said dejectedly: "You really don't know what to do. I even doubt that you have done the investigation."

"Lao Mengqian has been the financial director for five years. His proudest investment in the first two years was those DVD factories. This year, the trend has changed sharply, and the more he thinks about it, the more he gets angry."

"You still mentioned that I..."

Snapped!

Wu Tao patted his head and said to Meifeng: "Let's go, I will take you to go through the relevant leasing procedures."

After he finished speaking, he walked out of the reception room immediately. When he left, Mei Feng asked Lin Yu, "Did you do it on purpose?"

Lin Yu nodded and responded with a smile:

"Yes! There is a saying that one learns from one's mistakes. We have pulled out so many tiger skins. They must investigate it. Once the information is found, it is not too late to invest slowly."

"Besides, I can't even get the money, and the people behind me can't get any money for me either!"

“It’s hard to do, so everyone should stop doing it!”

"Let's go, let's take care of the factory first!"

…………

On the other side, walking out of the door of the Planning Bureau, Wen Dai immediately began to complain to Meng Chao: "Young people today really don't know how big the world is. They have to go through such a big fight to borrow money. No, this person can't do it."

"That's right!" Meng Chao nodded sympathetically, looked back at the door with disdain, snorted coldly, and walked quickly towards his Santana.

As he walked, he also made a bet to Wen Dai: "If a person like this can succeed in starting a business, I..."

Before he could say anything, Wen Dai quickly covered his mouth and kept saying beside him: "Bah, bah, bah, don't say these words. We people still have to be a little taboo."

"I'm going back first, call me if you need anything."

Waving his hand, Wen Dai returned to the car and watched Meng Chao drive away. He immediately took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.

"Hey, Mr. Tian, ​​today the Shenzhen City Planning Bureau recommended a project to us, but there are some problems with the people involved in this project."

"It's not about cheating money, but because of their technology and various aspects of planning. I suspect that the Planning Bureau didn't tell me the truth. Help me check the origin of this person. This person is from the north."

"Yes, I am very optimistic about them. They are also engaged in electronics, but their behavior is very thorough, unlike those who engage in DVDs."

"Excuse me, let's have a meal sometime."

After hanging up the phone, Wen Dai glanced at the Planning Bureau building again, turned around, started the car and left. Now he still needed to know something.

30 million, just one sentence.

…………

The street trees outside the car window are receding rapidly. In Shenzhen at the end of June, the weather is not generally hot.

Meng Chao held the steering wheel with his left hand, took out his mobile phone with his right hand, found a number, and dialed:

"Hey, Mayor, I've seen that project. The plan is very complete. As long as it is implemented according to the plan, there will be no problem. They also provided an additional patent. I can guarantee that I have never seen that patent."

"The problem is that this person is very open-minded. He used his technology to discount 60 million, added 10 million in cash himself, and then offered the remaining 30% of the shares for 30 million."

"It can actually be done, but the main issue I'm worried about is the investment payback time."

"If we want to invest, we can sign some additional conditions, such as when the progress reaches a certain level, and then pay additional investment funds for the next stage."

“I’ll discuss the specific situation when we meet!”

"Also, Mayor, tell the people below that if there is such a project, let us take a look at it internally. If I hadn't gone today, that bitch Wen Dai would have definitely taken out a loan."

"The icing on the cake is never as good as providing help in times of need. You, old man, need to understand this!"

"Okay, I'll go to your office and wait for you first!"

After hanging up the phone, Meng Chao changed direction and drove towards the location of the city hall.

On the other hand, with Wu Tao's help, Lin Yu realized what it means to have someone in the court who can do things easily.

He just sat there, and the people who helped him with the procedures were running around in front of him. In less than an hour, the work that might have taken a week was completed.

Until Wu Tao handed him the relevant procedures, he still felt like he was in a dream.

"Take it! With a 20-acre factory building and a total of 10 years of contract, the rent for the second half of this year will be waived."

"In the first five years, the rent is 200,000 yuan per year, and in the next five years, the rent is 500,000 yuan per year."

"For the procedures for the power supply and water supply inside, you can get it from the power supply company and water supply company in the area where the factory is located, hand it to them, and they will help you open an account in half an hour at most."

"But I suggest you check the pipes and wiring in the factory before opening it. The factory hasn't been used for half a year. It's possible that the pipes and wires inside have been stolen."

"Finally, if you start recruiting workers, you can contact the civil affairs department. They always have tasks in hand and can help you alleviate the problem. I say it will be easier to solve it if you go to them."

"I have something else to do here, so I won't send you two there."

Appearing in front of the office building again, sparse raindrops, mixed with the gloomy afternoon sky, fell from the sky.

After a while, it turned into a downpour, drenching everything they could see.

Holding out his hand to catch the rain, Mei Feng's face looked a little unhappy: "It doesn't mean a good thing if it rains when you go out!"

Unlike him, Lin Yu opened his arms, took a basin of water, poured it forward, and said with a smile:

"The sun always comes after the wind and rain. Heavy rain can wash away the dust in the air. This also implies that we will have a period of silence next. When this period of silence is over, our world will be ours."

"Tomorrow we'll go see the factory first, and then we'll lie to people!"
