Chapter 67 Authorization

Zhou Shuo, Liu Gang and Liu Guifang walked out of the Finance Bureau and watched the Fulin Group and the group proudly get into the car and leave.

Liu Gang spat in anger and hummed: "Don't look at the smile now, be careful to get a list in the future. Zhou'er, since the component factory has been acquired by Fulin Group, what should we do?"

Zhou Shuo smiled and shook his head and said, "The show has not been finished yet, let's take a look."

Zhou Shuo and the other two walked less than two steps, and someone chased after him from behind and shouted, "Is it Mr. Zhou? Our boss hopes to talk to you."

"Your boss? Do I know each other?" Zhou Shuo asked curiously.

The man nodded and said, "We met in the conference room just now. My boss is right behind me. Just wait a moment."

"Oh." Zhou Shuo smiled and said, "Okay, I'll wait."

Now he is worth tens of millions of dollars. He just said something casually, and he didn't dare to go there and followed him. This man looked pretty good and was polite, so he was reasonable to wait on the street.

Not long after, a man in his thirty years old came to the direction of the Finance Bureau. He laughed and said, "This is Mr. Zhou, right? Hello, my name is Li Jiufeng, I have long been famous!"

"Haha, hello. Mr. Li knows me?" Zhou Shuo asked in confusion.

Li Jiufeng shook his head and said, "I just heard of Daming for a long time, and I can't tell you what I know. But I really want to know Mr. Zhou. My father and Pang Zhou's father are colleagues."

Zhou Shuo said regretfully: "Oh, Pang Zhou doesn't tell me much about his family affairs."

Li Jiufeng smiled and said, "He has strict tutoring. If he hadn't made a name for himself, he would still be a small employee now."

After he finished speaking, he turned his head and sighed, "Who would have thought that this kid suddenly turned into a phoenix and went abroad to be a capitalist. It was really shocking. Because of this, my old man was about to die of death, so I asked him to learn more."

Zhou Shuo pursed his lips and said, "Pang Zhou is quite well-behaved at home, haha. Does Mr. Li have something to do with me?"

Li Jiufeng took out a business card from his pocket and said, "It's nothing. Today I mainly want to get to know Mr. Zhou. This is my business card. I have run a small business myself. I'll ask you to take care of you in the future."

Zhou Shuo took his business card and took a look. "Chenguang Group, what kind of business does Mr. Li do?"

"Do everything and make a living, mainly because I have taken the Bohai general agent from several foreign companies. I am not like Pang Zhou, and I can borrow some light from my home and make some living." Li Jiufeng said casually.

When Zhou Shuo heard this, he understood what he was doing. However, for some reason, he put away his business card. Then he touched it from his pocket, took out a notepad, and said with a smile: "Mr. Li, don't laugh at the business card. I don't have this business card yet. I can usually find me if I write you a school phone number."

This negligence cannot be blamed for Zhou Shuo. He has been away from his business card for many years before he was reborn. Acquaintances dialed their phone numbers to each other, and it was easy to save a name. After reborn, they forgot this troublesome way of communication.

Write down your name and contact information, and tear off one page of paper. Zhou Shuo wrote down the three letters "PDA" on another page of paper. This is also an important research direction and you must not forget it.

Li Jiufeng took Zhou Shuo’s note with both hands, looked over and asked: “What does Mr. Zhou mean by this PDA? Is it a new software design?”

"Oh, this one." Zhou Shuo smiled and said, "Paper business cards are so troublesome. I just thought that it would not be much more convenient to make a handheld device that can be used to check phones. I can write it down casually."

Li Jiufeng's eyes lit up when he heard this and said with interest: "If Mr. Zhou makes this product, he must notify me!"

Zhou Shuo laughed and said, "Okay, no problem."

Li Jiufeng put away Zhou Shuo's contact information, held his hand, and said sincerely: "Then I won't disturb Mr. Zhou anymore. I look forward to the day I will cooperate with you!"

"Don't worry, Mr. Li, we will definitely have a chance." Zhou Shuo shook his hand hard and said.

"Hahahaha, it's so satisfying!" Zhou Fulin waved the contract document in his hand, waved his hand and said, "Uncle Ping'an, how about it? I said, how can we not get what our Fulin Group is interested in?"

Zhou Ping'an, the director of Ping'an Clothing Factory under Fulin Group, smiled and said in a compliment: "Yes, yes. Mr. Zhou is indeed wise and wise. The masts and oars are destroyed while chatting and laughing! Haha, it's time for us to achieve great things."

"That's right! Are all the production equipment I asked you to acquire ready?" Zhou Fulin asked with his legs crossed and excitedly.

"Don't worry, Mr. Zhou, you've purchased it all." Zhou Ping'an nodded suddenly and said, "Just wait until we sign a supply contract with Microsoft, we can start production at full speed immediately!"

"That's great! Let's go to the imperial capital and talk to the Microsoft person. I heard that Zhou Shuo can sell a keyboard at a high price of $20 with the advantage of patents. Humph, this time we will use 40 yuan to supply Americans, and I don't believe it won't be too bad!"

Zhou Fulin and Zhou Ping'an took a group of people and left as soon as possible, pulled out a convoy of six vehicles and headed straight for the imperial capital.

The manager of Microsoft China office had already been replaced by people at this time. Tu Bin, a native of Baodao, took over James's class and was appointed as the new general manager. One of his important tasks was to ensure a stable source of goods for Microsoft's X-architecture Ergonomics keyboard.

When he heard that someone was willing to supply Microsoft at 40 yuan, he stood up on the spot. He walked around the place and quickly said to his secretary: "Let me find the phone number of Principal Zhou of Xiucheng, hurry!"

The newly-tipped secretary rushed out Zhou Shuo's phone in a hurry in the phone book, and beeped two rings, and the phone was connected.

"Hey, I'm the Microsoft China Office, I'll look for President Zhou."

"Hello Mr. Zhou, I have something here to confirm with you. Has your X-architecture keyboard patent been transferred to others?"

"Well, yes, okay. I understand. Of course, Mr. Zhou must have a good relationship when he comes to the imperial capital."

"Okay, goodbye!"

Tu Bin shook his head with a smile, stood up and said to the secretary: "Okay, please invite the guests to the reception room, I'll go there later."

Seeing that the secretary was out, Tu Bin whistled and fiddled with his hair, tightened his tie in the mirror, and then walked out of the office.

For him, James is different from himself. Tu Bin knew very well that Microsoft would make big moves in 1995, and before that, the best thing was to calm down, the less changes, the better.

Although Microsoft buys X-architecture keyboards for a cost of $20, its price is as high as hundreds of dollars. Zhou Shuo’s keyboard factory seems to produce 50,000 keyboards per month, and it can earn millions of dollars in revenue, which seems to be amazing. But is this really a lot?

Compared with the 200 million computers in the United States, 50,000 keyboards are not even a drop in the bucket. Although the film X-structure keyboard using flexible silver paste technology is much lower than the traditional crater rigid PCB keyboard, it is actually sold as a luxury product in the United States.

Before the Windows 95 operating system is produced, if you rashly change the supplier and significantly reduce the purchase price, should Microsoft sell it at a lower price? How can I explain it to users who bought it at a high price before? If you don’t reduce the price, if someone knows its own cost price, how big a storm will arise?

Therefore, for Microsoft, which seeks stability, the best way is to seek stability.

Tu Bin entered the reception room with agile steps, and smiled cheerfully in Taiwanese Mandarin, "I'm sorry, I've been waiting for a long time."

Tu Bin shook hands with Zhou Fulin, Zhou Ping'an and his group shook hands, and then said: "I Tu Bin is the general manager of Microsoft China Office. I don't know what the customer is called?"

Zhou Fulin smiled with a restrained smile and said, "Hello, Manager Tu, my name is Zhou Fulin. This is my uncle Zhou Ping'an. We came on behalf of the Bohai Province Embroidered City Fulin Group. We are here this time mainly because we can supply X-architecture keyboards to Microsoft."

"Oh?" Tu Bin asked curiously: "Have your company obtained a patent for X-architecture keyboard?"

Zhou Fulin said proudly: "That's not the case, but he has obtained patent authorization. In terms of cost, haha, even if others have patents, they cannot compare to our advantages."

Tu Bin nodded and asked, "I don't know what industry your company is in? Do you have experience in producing electronic products?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Fulin said proudly: "Fulin Group is mainly engaged in the textile and plastic products industry, with rich international trade experience, and you can fully trust our capabilities."

Tu Bin hesitated: "So, do you have no experience in producing electronic products?"

"No, no, no, we have it." Zhou Fulin hurriedly took out a piece of information and handed it to him, saying: "Fulin Group has just acquired Xiucheng Components Factory, an electronics factory with a history of more than 50 years. It has rich production and management experience, and I believe it can meet the needs of X-architecture keyboard production."

Tu Bin looked through the introduction information of Xiucheng Components Factory, nodded and said, "This factory is really good from the documents. How long will it take for you to start production?"

"It's OK at any time!" Zhou Fulin saw Tu Bin's feeling of looseness, and said excitedly: "Our equipment and personnel are ready. As long as we sign the contract, we can organize production immediately! And we have a place that has more advantages than others, because we invest more and have stronger capital, and once we put it into production, the output is incomparable to others!"

When Tu Bin heard his last sentence, he frowned slightly and said invisibly: "Okay, give me your patent authorization certificate. If there is no problem, I will recommend you to the head office."

Zhou Fulin said overjoyed: "Thank you so much for Manager Tu!" As he said that, he waved to Zhou Ping'an and said: "Uncle Ping'an, hurry up and give Manager Tu the authorization documents."

Zhou Ping'an quickly took out the authorization contract for the X-structure keyboard from his bag and handed it to Tu Bin.
