"Hey, boy! Look at me, do you know who I am?"

Spacey is actually in her forties, so there is nothing wrong with calling an intern at an IBA.

The interns recruited by iba are young people who are preparing to make a living in scientific research or working hard in the battery industry in the future. The first thing that can be done by those who can be responsible for reception at the door of the conference hall is to memorize the hero chart.

As the speaker of the opening ceremony of this conference, Spacey's photos have certainly been memorized by these interns.

"Professor Spacey, of course I know you. Is there anything I can do to serve you?"

"Ha, you're good, very promising!" Spacey was very happy that she could scan her face. She hooked up with the intern's shoulders and said familiarly: "Listen, I have something I want to ask you for a favor. If you agree, you can not only gain Professor Spacey's friendship, but also get this!"

Spacey stretched out his hand and shook his hand tightly with the intern. Needless to say, this hand is a unique skill that all Americans can do. By shaking hands, Franklin in his palm is transferred to a master.

Without this skill, it is often difficult to move forward in the United States.

"Oh, what do I want to call you? My friend? I want to remember your name well. You have helped Professor Spacey a lot!"

"Andy, my name is Andy, Professor Spacey."

"Andy! What a great guy, will you help me, right?"

"Oh, of course!" A photo of Franklin was added in his hand, and the intern suddenly smiled: "Professor Spacey, please give me instructions, and I will definitely help you do anything!"

"It's not a big deal, you just need to do this..."

...

"Captain Zhang, does it have to be like this? Look at the foreigners around you, which one is not very casual, and our clothes are just like uniforms, which is too ugly!"

"Professor Qing, please forgive me. These are all rules set by the Foreign Affairs Bureau, and I have no choice..."

The leader of the Chinese member group is a "young young", probably in his thirties, and is the person in charge arranged by the foreign affairs department. It is said that he is a member of the central ministry at such a young age. It is also a promising future. However, any member group is a professor from a university in China, or a researcher from a research institute. Many of the people who have achieved this position are very old.

The subordinates are in charge of such a group of people who can't beat them, and they can't scold them, and the two sides have no affiliation yet. How should we manage this? If we don't have to care about the so-called "international influence", we really have to herd herds.

There is no way. People have disappeared after going abroad many times in China, so they have to be implicated by these people who run away, and all the foreign visiting groups must be strictly managed.

"I said Lao Qing, don't lose your temper with Team Leader Zhang. What can he do? I'm serious about the meeting. Don't we have half a day to move freely?"

"Hey, I brought out less than a thousand dollars in total, and I don't know what I can buy."

"Hey? Why did you exchange a thousand dollars? I have cash in my hand, but I just can't find a place to exchange the US dollars."

"I tell you, it's in Liulichang. I know a man who sells calligraphy and paintings. Foreigners often go to see the new things there, and the relationship between the sell calligraphy and paintings is just a little bit more..."

After Professor Qing said this, the members could no longer maintain order. Everyone surrounded him and asked for the tips for exchange of foreign currency.

However, there was still one person in the team who stood there without moving his footsteps, holding a stack of manuscripts in his hand, as if he was reading it unconsciously.

"Oh, Professor Ling Xiaoling, are you still reading the paper?" Team leader Zhang looked at the old professors in a circle to exchange experiences. It was hard to emphasize any discipline after touching his nose.

Well, that's it, he hates this trick himself. Look at the participants from other countries around him, who can really like the trick he has done?

However, during the heated discussion in the team, there was a person who ignored it, just like a queue of Chinese people suddenly appeared in the hall, and Professor Ling suddenly appeared in the Chinese member group.

Professor Ling seems to be about the same age as Team Leader Zhang, but he is already a professor after he is called. Even if he is an associate professor, this is not simple in the domestic seniority environment.

"Oh, there are a few speeches in this conference that are very interesting. I want to know about it in advance." Ling Xiao closed the collection of papers in his hand, and then he saw the old professors who were already sitting in a group.

"What's wrong"

"Ahem, it's okay, let's share your experience of attending meetings abroad." Team Leader Zhang pretended to cough and suddenly asked: "By the way, Professor Ling, I heard that Professor Spacey, the speaker at the opening ceremony of this conference, seemed to be talking about our Chinese technology?"

"It's hard to say." Ling Xiao hesitated for a moment and shook his head, "There is a research paper from our China published in American scientific journals. However, it's hard to say whether Spacey's technology uses the technology of that paper. After all, American university professors may also be developing this technology simultaneously, so it's possible to crash."

"Oh, that's it." Team Leader Zhang seemed a little regretful, but he was not too disappointed. Or it should be said that the threshold for expectation is too low, so the negative emotions are not strong.

"It's a pity to say that Motorola has proposed a purchase price of tens of millions of dollars to Professor Spacey in order to acquire this patent! If this was invented by scientists in our country, would it be our turn to take this money?"

"It's very difficult." Ling Xiao's tone was not sure, but he was thinking: "If you bought our technology, even if it was the same, Americans would not pay so much money. For example, there was a patent for two-step fermentation of vitamin C in China and was sold to Roche in Switzerland. Unfortunately, this technology that can subvert the market was only sold for 5.5 million yuan, which is almost slim compared to the market fluctuations that Roche avoided. Until now, Roche is still using the original one-step fermentation method because it is the world's major vitamin C manufacturer."

Leader Zhang could understand it halfway, but he still nodded subconsciously. Only then did he realize that foreigners could still do business like this. In order to maintain their monopoly position, they insisted on more advanced technology without using it.

This is almost unimaginable in China. What technology is not a matter of a superior unit? Brothers can be very popularized quickly if they say it is very easy to use. The only problem is the inertia of civil servants and investment in technical transformation, but there will never be such a reason to prevent the application of new technologies.

However, Roche Company probably didn't know that their efforts did not stop their demise. When China's manufacturing industry began to enter a boom in the late 1990s, because Roche did not buy out the right to use the two-step fermentation method in China, a large number of Chinese pharmaceutical companies began to use the two-step fermentation method production line of vitamin C. At a cost of about US$4, the international price of vitamin C up to $18 was thrown into hell.

The international market of vitamin C can be said to have truly experienced the price offensive of Chinese-made bakery. The price of vitamin C finally fell to a loss of US$3, and most Chinese pharmaceutical factories went bankrupt as a result. However, Roche, Switzerland, BASF, Germany, and Takeda Pharmaceutical, which have always monopolized the supply of the vitamin C market, also went bankrupt and disintegrated due to this malicious competition in dumping.

After that, the world's vitamin C supply became the on-the-trade meal of the four major Chinese pharmaceutical companies. Therefore, the only surviving German BASF company in this storm has always been seeking to make vitamin C a prescription drug.

Unfortunately, after the tragic Germans forgot that after the International Vitamin C Price Alliance fell apart, this prescription vitamin C offended other interest groups. Coca-Cola, Procter & Gamble and other interest groups in the United States also could not tolerate the high price of vitamin C, so they simply dispatched an antitrust investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice, sending the general manager of Roche, which has mastered the two-step fermentation method to prison, and imposed a fine of US$5 billion on the charges of the price alliance.

From then on, 80% of the world's vitamin C was produced in China. The friendship of Pacific Rim II was the first to bear sweet flowers in the vitamin C market.

But of course, Ling Xiao didn't know these future events.

"I'm talking to you professors, we're almost done. Is it time to enter the venue?" Team leader Zhang looked at his watch and saw that it was almost time to enter the venue, so he quickly reminded everyone.

"Oh, let's go, let's go!"

The old professors re-arranged into two columns according to the requirements of Leader Zhang, and led by him to the direction of the conference hall.

Andy conscientiously checked the invitations of everyone entering the conference hall. Although there may not be free food and drinks for such meetings, there are many international battery industry experts, academic masters, technical personnel of battery companies and even main persons in charge, and representatives of downstream manufacturers. This means that the hall of this conference is full of business opportunities.

If you cannot determine the identity of the person entering the venue, those well-informed salesmen may be able to burst the venue.

"Hello, we are a Chinese member group attending the conference, here is an invitation."

Like passports and other ID documents, the invitations to attend the meeting are also kept by the team leader, that is, the team leader will hand over to Andy.

"Please wait, I need to check it." Andy took the stack of invitations handed over by Team Leader Zhang and began to check it carefully.

However, when he opened the last invitation in his hand, his brows frowned. (To be continued.)
