Chapter 549: A Promise to You
"Yes, it's the patent for the vehicle delayed cooling system."
Facing Hassel's doubts, Mao Zhichun nodded affirmatively and said, "Mr. Hassel, you are a technical person. You should have heard of this patent, right?"
Hassel nodded with a serious expression: "Yes, Mr. Mao. Our 'Skoda Automobile Company' has learned about this patent some time ago and is about to contact the owner to discuss the purchase and use rights."
After hearing this, Mao Zhichun was happy: "Mr. Hassel, you are a waste of time, because the owner of this patent is sitting on the spot..."
"What?"
As soon as Mao Zhichun finished speaking, the executives of "Skoda Automobile Company" were all stunned.
Although most of these executives are not from technical backgrounds, they are still very sensitive to important information such as automobile patents.
In the eyes of these bigwigs of "Skoda", most of the patents of the world's automobile industry are concentrated in the three places: island countries, Western Europe and the United States.
In this regard, even international second-tier brands like "Skoda" cannot compete with others. At best, it would be amazing to have a few patents in some unpopular technical fields.
As for the automobile market like China, which is seriously backward in technology, how can a leading and advanced patent be born? This is beyond everyone's expectations.
Just as the big guys on "Skoda" looked at each other, Hassel frowned and asked, "No, Mr. Mao."
"I remember the registration location of this 'vehicle delay cooling system patent' is in Samba Country. How could I get in touch with your Chinese delegation? Did you make a mistake?"
Mao Zhichun seemed to have long been convinced of Hassel's question. After he asked, Chairman Mao calmly spread his hands and said something.
"Mr. Hassel, you only know one thing but not the other!"
Mao Zhichunzhi said proudly: "The patent we are discussing was registered in Samba country a few months ago, which is correct."
"But what you may not know is that at that time, our Songqi Group was sending a delegation to negotiate with the 'Volkswagen Latin American Automobile Company' for further cooperation..."
Mao Zhichun didn't say too straightforwardly. In fact, if he didn't say the following content, people from "Skoda" could guess.
Hassel suddenly looked at Mao Zhichun and said, "It turns out that this patent was successfully applied for by Mr. Mao when he was in Samba. I admire him!"
"Haha, Mr. Hassel was joking. How could I have this ability!"
Mao Zhichun smiled and stretched out a hand to Zhao Guoyang, explaining with a smile: "To be honest, this patent was applied by our researcher Zhao in front of the technician of the "Volkswagen Latin American Automobile Company".
"At that time, Mr. Jeffries, chairman and president of Volkswagen Latin America Automobile Company, directly offered a high price of several million US dollars to buy out our researcher Zhao's patent..."
Mao Zhichun's story naturally has some show-off elements.
However, at this moment, the people of "Skoda Automobile Company" no longer care about this.
Although Hassel didn't know if Mao Zhichun could believe it, he trusted Zhao Guoyang quite a lot.
After Chairman Mao finished his talk, he looked at Zhao Guoyang expectantly and asked seriously: "Researcher Zhao, what Mr. Mao said is true? Is this 'vehicle delay cooling system patent' really from your hands?"
Facing Hassel's inquiry, Zhao Guoyang acted extremely calm.
He nodded softly and said calmly: "Mr. Hassel, Chairman Mao is right. The owner of this patent is indeed me!"
After a pause, Zhao Guoyang turned to Skoda Larson and said, "Mr. Larson, if your company wants to purchase the right to use my patent, I can make an decision to sell it to you at a relatively preferential price."
Speaking of this, Zhao Guoyang smiled and said, "Of course, I mean, if the cooperation between our two sides has not been reached."
"If we are really lucky to be able to cooperate successfully, then my patent will be sold to your company at an internal price just like the ones we treat "Songqi Group"..."
Listening to Zhao Guoyang's relaxed words, Skoda Larson's face relaxed.
Indeed, Hassel has talked about the importance of this patent several times.
For small and medium-sized vehicles, the selection of vehicle delayed cooling systems is almost an inevitable trend.
If the "Skoda" product does not have this function, it will undoubtedly be in an extremely unfavorable situation in future competition.
Now Zhao Guoyang's frank words have clearly expressed his attitude.
Yes, this researcher Zhao has no intention of coercing "Skoda", he just talks about the matter.
Regardless of whether "Skoda" and "Huaxia Automobile Group" can reach a cooperation in the end, his patent will be sold to "Skoda Automobile Company" at a relatively preferential price.
Zhao Guoyang's "kind" behavior has once again soared the "Skoda" executives' already considerable favorability towards him.
Looking at Skoda Larson and Hassel and other bigwigs exchanging eyes, they looked quite amazed.
Zhao Guoyang took the opportunity to speak: "Mr. Larson, we Chairman Mao just introduced so much, just to prove one thing - that is, the level of our Chinese automobile industry is not useless."
After a week of patrolling the "Skoda" executives, Zhao Guoyang said in a sincere tone: "Sometimes, people will evaluate something strange with their first impression."
"But say something against your will. Even if you see it with your own eyes, sometimes what you see is far from the facts, let alone 'heard-telling'."
Zhao Guoyang said enthusiastically: "I don't want to say too much about the level of our Chinese automobile industry. I just have a message that I can reveal to Mr. Hassel in advance..."
Hearing this, not only the person involved, Hassel, but also Skoda Larson, Rossicky and others, also stared at Zhao Guoyang.
"What I want to tell Mr. Hassel is that our 'Huaxia Automobile Group' is already preparing a high-end R&D center."
"In the future, whether it is the experts from the United States, Germany, or island countries, we will invite him to our R&D center to participate in some projects..."
Speaking of this, Zhao Guoyang had a clear pause.
After arousing everyone's appetite, he explained in detail: "At present, I have confirmed that I can get on the horse, including the 'Car Dynamic Simulator Motion System Control Calculation Method', 'Electronic Controlled Gasoline Injection System combining ignition and fuel injection' and other projects."
"Because the previous preparations were already very sufficient, I believe that as long as there are a few months, it will not be too difficult to complete these two major projects..."
Listening to Zhao Guoyang's confident words, the group of people from "Skoda Automobile Company" could no longer sit still.
Hassel kept winking at Chairman Skoda Larson. The meaning was already very obvious, which was to tell his chairman how important the two projects Zhao Guoyang mentioned were.
Judging from Skoda Larson's understanding of Hassel, of course he could understand what was going on at once.
After barely suppressing the excitement in his heart, Skoda Larson turned to look at Zhao Guoyang and said, "Researcher Zhao, we really admire your personal attainments in the automotive industry."
"We 'Skoda' also believe that with your joining, your company's future will be a bright future!"
Zhao Guoyang nodded politely to the boss and said, "Thank you Mr. Larson for his personal importance to our 'Huaxia Automobile Group'."
"I believe that I don't dare to see if the cooperation between our two companies will eventually be achieved this time, it will not affect the good relationship between our two companies, nor will it affect the friendship between our two good neighbors and friendly countries!"
"Yes, yes! Researcher Zhao said this very well!" Skoda Larson nodded repeatedly.
"So, Researcher Zhao!"
Skoda Larson pondered for a moment, and finally waved his hand and expressed his solemnly: "I'll make a promise to Ambassador Meng and everyone in the delegation."
"No matter which company we choose to transfer our shares to this time, our cooperation with Huaxia Automobile Group will definitely not change our minds!"
"Even if all our shares in Skoda are sold, we will definitely still have the autonomy we want in operation. So, Ambassador Meng, Chief Du, and Researcher Zhao, you can rest assured!"
Skoda Larson's attitude is actually very obvious.
There is no doubt that after Zhao Guoyang's magical performance, the big man's heart has gradually tilted the balance towards the "Huaxia Automobile Group Company".
After understanding this, Meng Liangyu and Du Yitao looked at each other and saw the meaning of "stop when you see it" in each other's eyes.
Meng Liangyu smiled and said, "Okay, okay! With Mr. Larson's promise, it is more important than anything else!"
"Mr. Larson, I think it's not too early. Let's get here for today's meeting. It won't affect your company's normal work!"
"Hey, Ambassador Meng's words are out of the question! Isn't the meeting with your delegation working normally? Haha!" Skoda Larson said happily.
"However, Chairman, it's almost noon. Should we entertain Ambassador Meng, Commander Du and others first and then continue to talk?" Rosici next to him smiled and said.
Chapter completed!
