The General Administration of Geological and Mineral Investigation of France is affiliated to the Ministry of Industry of France. It has 25 local branches, 3 local mining offices, and a series of joint-stock companies engaged in mineral investigation and mining.

It is one of the few large institutions in the world that integrate geological surveys, mineral storage screening, geology and land development.

The Bureau has formed a huge network of group companies through mineral investigation and mining companies.

Through its subsidiaries, it directly holds mining equity in large minerals in many countries, and its business covers the world.

Just one "International Mining Development Company" has produced more than 5 tons of gold in Africa in the past few years.

When Zhao Guoyang learned that Lexus was the boss of such a huge subsidiary, he couldn't help but sigh that his luck was really good.

In the lounge, when Lexus and Piero were arguing, Clement's eyes never left Zhao Guoyang.

As the world's top three engineering machinery giants, "Jessebo"'s business focus has actually been in Europe and the United States.

One important reason for this is that the average price of its products is too high, and few mining enterprises and engineering construction enterprises in Asia, Africa and Latin America are willing to purchase in large quantities.

In Africa, "Jessebo" has mining equipment, but its market share is less than one percent.

Such a low market share makes "Jessebo Company" not very confident in this market.

This time, Clement came to participate in this "West Africa International Construction Machinery and Mining Machinery Exhibition" and did not have much idea of ​​expanding his business. He just wanted to learn more about the product status of his competitors.

Originally, Clement was somewhat disappointed after looking at competitor products such as "Komatsu Production" and "Volvo Construction Equipment" in the exhibition hall today.

It’s not because these competitors’ products are not competitive, but because these products do not have much attention to their innovation level.

However, after being attracted by the dispute between Li Zaidao and Zhao Guoyang, Clement suddenly discovered that this "SMS company" that he had never heard of before has a good product.

Later, after further understanding the dispute between "Modern Heavy Industry" and "SMS Company", Clement naturally paid attention to Zhao Guoyang, the "rise" of "updated star".

"Mr. Zhao, I wonder if your patent for your 'DC all-digital new electronic control system' is intended to be sold to the public?" Clement asked straight to the point without any trace.

After hearing his question, Zhao Guoyang smiled and nodded, "Mr. Clement, since this patent has been applied for, it must be used for sale."

"However, as far as I understand, your company's research on electronic control should exceed our patent level. I don't know why..."

After Zhao Guoyang asked this, Clement shrugged disregardably and said, "We, Jessebo Company, do have many patents in electronic control. However, because our company's mine lifting equipment is not the main product, we don't put much effort into this patent."

After Clement's explanation, Zhao Guoyang immediately understood.

Indeed, it is not that the "Jessebo Company" cannot come up with this patent, but that there is no need.

After all, their business is large-scale engineering machinery, not mine lifting equipment.

If this relatively small patent can be purchased directly from other companies at a relatively preferential price, it will also be a savings in manpower and material resources for the technical research and development department of "Jessebo Company".

After thinking about this, Zhao Guoyang's heart gradually became alive.

If you want to say that my patent for this "dc-all-digital new electronic control system" is indeed quite practical, but in terms of difficulty and complexity, it is just ordinary.

Therefore, in terms of the price of patent transfer, Zhao Guoyang's psychological price is only about 200,000 US dollars.

With the financial resources of "Jessebo Company", Zhao Guoyang believed that after he quoted this price, Mr. Clement would bargain for a little bit and would most likely agree.

However, compared to only earning this 200,000 US dollars, Zhao Guoyang attaches more importance to the ability to engage in a series of cooperation with "Jessebo" company.

Making up his mind, Zhao Guoyang smiled and said, "Mr. Clement, I personally express my deep honor for you to value our 'sms company' patent."

"If you want to buy it, of course there is no problem. I will give you a relatively discounted price. But..." Zhao Guoyang deliberately showed a hint of embarrassment.

Seeing his expression, Clement said with hope: "But what? Researcher Zhao, just say, don't have any worries!"

Seeing Clement getting hooked, Zhao Guoyang then told his thoughts in detail.

"That's right, Mr. Clement. Our 'sms company' is not short of money for the time being. So I don't care too much about how many companies can this patent be sold to and how much it can be sold."

"Compared with the transfer of patents, what I value more is the improvement of technology and the expansion of the market..."

As soon as Zhao Guoyang said this, Clement seemed to understand something.

Seeing the serious thought on his face, Zhao Guoyang continued to whistle: "In fact, I have always personally highly praised the technical level of 'Jessebo Company'."

"Compared with the same size of 'Caterpillar' and 'Komatsu Production', your company has always invested more energy in the innovation of engineering machinery."

Zhao Guoyang said in an admiring tone: "This is also an important reason why your company's market value is not among the top five among the same type of companies, but its fame is one of the top!"

Listening to Zhao Guoyang's sincere words, a hint of relief appeared on Clement's face.

However, "Jessebo Company" is much worse than other major engineering machinery manufacturers in terms of market value, and can only rank fifth and sixth in the world.

However, this does not damage its good reputation in the industry.

After entering the engineering machinery industry, Zhao Guoyang's first reaction was to seek cooperation with "Jessebo Company", which is precisely because of this reason.

Giving Clement a little time to think, Zhao Guoyang continued to speak: "Maybe Mr. Clement has some concerns about the cooperation I mentioned, thinking that our 'sms company' wants to become your company's OEM factory and produce your products in China."

"In fact, this is just the most basic way of cooperation I imagined!"

Hearing this, a strange color flashed in Clement's eyes.

He raised his head, stared into Zhao Guoyang's eyes, and said thoughtfully: "So, Mr. Zhao, what other ways of cooperation are you considering?"

"Technology sharing, supporting manufacturers sharing, product standards sharing, and even market sharing are all possible!"

Zhao Guoyang spread his hands and said, "I know that 'Jessebo Company' has a persistent pursuit of product quality. In this regard, our 'sms Company' also attaches great importance to it."

"Maybe Mr. Clement also knows that China has the largest construction machinery market in the world. But I am frankly speaking, our China market does not have a high recognition of your company. It is even possible that it is not as good as Mr. Li Zaidao's 'Hydramatic Heavy Industry Group' just now!"

Zhao Guoyang's comment made Clement somewhat embarrassed.

However, this person is still very well-educated. After thinking about it for a while, he also accepted Zhao Guoyang's statement.

Seeing Clement's characteristics, Zhao Guoyang continued to speak: "If we cooperate with each other, we can fully demonstrate the reputation of 'Jessebo Company' in China."

"I can't guarantee that the products of your company's brand will definitely be sold, but it's still okay to open up some of the Chinese market!"

Upon hearing this, Clement nodded in approval and said, "Well, Mr. Zhao's proposal is still feasible."

"However, I still know nothing about your company's technical research and development and production capacity. Just relying on a mine hoist is actually nothing. I don't know Mr. Zhao, do you agree with my point of view?"

Zhao Guoyang shrugged and said indifferently: "This is natural!"

"If our 'sms company' is just so capable, we are not qualified to cooperate with your company and can only be your 'Office Factory'."

Zhao Guoyang pointed outside the room and said with a smile at the booth of his two companies: "In fact, Mr. Clement may not have paid much attention to another product of our company - a small excavator!"

"If Mr. Clement, you have a closer look at this product, then the senses of our 'sms company' may be different!"

After hearing Zhao Guoyang's words of swearing, Clement was stunned.

As Zhao Guoyang said, just now, because he was paying attention to the other product on the booth because he was focusing on the two mine hoists of "Hyundai Heavy Industry" and "SMS Company".

Of course, there is another reason, that is, the excavator is clearly just a sample and there is not much to observe.

Clement himself is a master of technology in engineering machinery, and of course it can be seen at a glance.

It is reasonable that he did not continue to pay attention to the excavator.

At this moment, he heard that Zhao Guoyang seemed to have some meaning, and Clement said "Hmm": "Is that so, I'm wrong with this."

"Okay, Mr. Zhao, we will go over and take a look at your company's excavators later. If we can reach a good level, I think there is still a lot of potential for cooperation between our two companies..."
