Chapter 172 Rich is willful
"Who said I won't cry anymore? I'm so heartbroken, okay?"
Listening to Tang Zifeng leading the conversation to himself, Bao Nana said to Tang Zifeng dissatisfiedly:
"On the contrary, you, the cruel senior brother, your own junior sister, are going abroad. Not only are you not sad at all, but you are also sarcastic. I have done so many things for you. What a lie. The matchmaker has lost the wall, it's so unpretentious!”
A few people next to him felt chills. Everyone knew that Bao Nana was talking about her introducing Xiao Wenjun to Tang Zifeng, but she directly claimed that "what's up", and this scale was a bit too big.
Everyone is full of festivals and is not suitable for this issue. They can only lower their heads and pretend to eat skewers. Only Xiao Wenjun took advantage of the inattention and pinched Bao Nana viciously. It was midsummer, and everyone was dressed cooler. Xiao Wenjun wanted to pinch Bao Nana, and there were places where he could start.
"Oh! Murder your best friend!" Bao Nana screamed exaggeratedly, which attracted everyone around who were eating skewers to look at him with surprise.
Xiao Wenjun put her hands away and pretended to be fine and ate the skewers. Bao Nana gave Xiao Wenjun a fierce look, but she was embarrassed to pinch her back. After all, she was completely unrestrained and what she said was indeed a bit dirty.
"Junior sister, what school did you go to in the United States?"
Tang Zifeng did not get entangled in Bao Nana's nonsense, but asked a random question to divert the embarrassment just now.
"Pennsylvania, learn communication." Bao Nana replied.
"A good school." Tang Zifeng praised.
"Of course," Bao Nana said, "It doesn't matter who I am. However, Penn only gave me half a prize, and two schools gave me full prizes. I thought they were not good and rejected it."
"It turns out that if you have money, you are entrusted." Tang Zifeng praised again.
Bao Nana had no classes in the last two months of school, and she was just waiting to do a symbolic graduation thesis defense before she could get her graduation certificate. She was bored and went to Feihai Company to work again, helping to sell the simplified version of "Five Three", and ended up earning another 20,000 or 30,000 yuan. This is her confidence to reject the full prize.
"What's the money? Compared to Wen Jun and I, I'm so poor, okay? Senior brother, you are too partial. You have helped Wen Jun make so much money, and you won't help your younger sister find a chance to make money." Bao Nana complained. She is not a foolish person. She said this in a low voice, only Xiao Wenjun and Tang Zifeng can hear it.
Speaking of Xiao Wenjun, he is the biggest winner in life among this group of people. According to the conditions that Tang Zifeng had negotiated with Linyiji, for each wood carving machine produced by Linyiji, Xiao Wenjun had to pay Xiao Wenjun a patent licensing fee of 100 yuan.
In fact, for the need for technical confidentiality, Xiao Wenjun's drawing specifications and knife-wielding strategies have not yet applied for a patent. Because once a patent is applied for, the technical details must be disclosed to the outside world. If the country's township enterprises do not care whether your patent is patented or not, they will start to copy the technical know-how, and they will not have the time to file a patent lawsuit without the time to file a patent lawsuit.
According to Tang Zifeng's plan, he had to wait for the Yiji machine to occupy a large part of the market and then start the application for these two patents. Even if the counterfeit companies want to copy, they would not be able to pose a major threat to the Yiji company. Tang Zifeng did not expect those encryption programs to be kept confidential forever, and it was estimated that it would last for about half a year. Yiji had already eaten up the fattest one in the market, and the rest would be kept for slowly playing with other manufacturers.
So far, Li Yi Machine has produced more than 500 wood carving machines and has nearly a thousand orders on hand. Tang Zifeng settled an authorization fee for Xiao Wenjun and took 100,000 yuan from Li Yi Machine. According to the agreement, Fei Hai Company raised 20,000 yuan as a commission, and the remaining 80,000 yuan was reached by Xiao Wenjun.
After receiving the patent licensing fee of 80,000 yuan, Xiao Wenjun was shocked. She told her father Xiao Ming over the phone and asked Xiao Ming what to do. Xiao Ming called Qin Zhongnian again to ask if there was any violation of the policy and whether Qin Zhongnian offered Xiao Wenjun a high price for the sake of his old classmates.
Qin Zhongnian could only tell the truth, saying that this technology was Tang Zifeng's creativity. Xiao Wenjun completed the design and the price that Tang Zifeng spoke with Linyi Machine on behalf of Xiao Wenjun. Qin Zhongnian also admitted that the authorization fee of 100 yuan per unit is actually relatively low. When it is opened to 200,300, the Linyi Machine is probably acceptable, because this machine has created five or six million profits for the Linyi Machine, and this is just the beginning.
"Why is it Tang Zifeng again?" Xiao Ming murmured on the other end of the phone.
"Old Xiao, this matter...ah!" Qin Zhongnian didn't know what to say.
In fact, Xiao Ming pretended to be reserved in front of Qin Zhongnian. After understanding the whole story, he was very excited. After all, his daughter was able to create technology to make Qin Zhongnian look at it, so that veteran machine companies like Linyi Machinery would willingly pay the patent fee. This is a glorious thing.
As for the black hand that appeared in this incident, the young assistant named Tang Zifeng, in Xiao Ming's mind, it was definitely not a disgusting image, but a bit petty. He suspected that his daughter could come up with those designs, which should be inspired by Tang Zifeng. Tang Zifeng was able to help her daughter find opportunities to make money, but it was such a high-end opportunity, and it seemed that it was not an exaggeration to call him a "good son-in-law".
Xiao Ming, who was happy, called his daughter back and said that the money was earned by his ability and could be taken openly. The family does not need subsidies for his daughter, so she kept the money in her hands and used it. Haven’t you always wanted to buy a laptop? Then buy it and choose the best one to buy. The laptop is something for learning, and it is also worth spending some money.
This time, Xiao Wenjun came to Linhe with his new notebook. This ibm notebook is worth more than 40,000 yuan, which Xiao Wenjun once coveted but never dared to care about. Unexpectedly, his dream has come true now.
"Wenjun's money is earned by technology, and you don't know how to design machines. How can I help you create opportunities for making money?" Tang Zifeng asked Bao Nana with a smile.
Bao Nana said: "I can write a press release, and I can also interview. By the way, after I go to the United States, I will find American business information for you. How about it? You have to give it to me according to the highest standards for the information fee."
Tang Zifeng thought and said, "I really remembered what kind of machine you say this. Although we have some information channels for the US market, I always feel that it is not down-to-earth enough. After you go to the United States, if you have the opportunity, you can contact ordinary American families for us and see which mechanical products they often use. It is not necessarily machines. As long as we can make it, you will pass on the information to me. If the information is useful, I will definitely not treat you badly."
"You mean American family?" Xiao Wenjun asked in surprise.
Tang Zifeng said: "Yes. With Nana's share, it is probably impossible to understand the needs of the company. But there are actually many DIY people in American families. I remember..., uh, I mean I have seen some information, saying that the demand for household machines in the United States is very large, especially various woodworking machines. The price is not high, which is only one or two thousand dollars per unit, but the demand is huge. Everyone in the United States is stupid and has a lot of money. If they don't make money, I'm sorry for the 5,000-year history of civilization."
The "impression" that Tang Zifeng said was actually what he heard in later generations. The labor costs in the United States are high, and many Americans are accustomed to doing house repairs, electrical appliances and even automobile repairs by themselves, and this requires various small tools, including some small drills, saws, cars, etc. These small machines are small in size, low in frequency, and do not have high requirements for durability, so the cost is relatively low, and they are small things that every household can afford.
For American families, it is not a big expenditure, such as one or two thousand US dollars, which is more than 10,000 yuan. If 10,000 such small machines can be exported a year, it will have an output value of more than 100 million yuan. Tang Zifeng would not dislike such a business.
If the factory was not rich and Zhou Heng had no ambition to explore overseas markets for the time being, Tang Zifeng would have wanted to take people to the United States to inspect the small household machine market in the United States. Now he asked Bao Nana to be an information officer for himself, which is actually just a casual move. If Bao Nana really can bring him any useful information, it would be a surprise. Even if Bao Nana didn't find out anything, Tang Zifeng didn't lose anything, and only Bao Nana was affected.
Who made Bao Nana claim to be Tang Zifeng’s younger sister every day? Isn’t the younger sister just used as a free labor force?
Tang Zifeng was secretly laughing there, but Bao Nana saw it. She cried and said to Xiao Wenjun: "Wenjun, look at your Zifeng smirking again, you must be plotting against me again."
Xiao Wenjun stretched out two fingers and made a position to pinch Bao Nana. Bao Nana quickly smiled and avoided, hugged Tang Ziyan and whispered. Xiao Wenjun looked at Tang Zifeng and asked in a low voice: "Senior Brother Tang, are you really planning to stay in the first round for a long time?"
"Why do you ask this too?" Tang Zifeng said in surprise. Wang Zijie asked him just now, but why did Xiao Wenjun ask this too in a blink of an eye? Do you seem very dedicated tonight?
Hey, don’t you seem very dedicated tonight?
"Not anymore, it's just that in his position, he is planning his own affairs, and it's always good to be able to help Linyiji find more business. Even if I'm transferred back to the department, at least Fatty and Xiaohui are still waiting for him. Even if I don't plan for myself, I have to plan for them." Tang Zifeng explained.
