Chapter 296 The cooperation plan ended on bad terms
After hearing about the progress in the Galaxy Technology Company laboratory, Xu Songyao completely understood Wang Donglai’s thoughts and his confidence.
In addition, according to his and Wang Donglai's previous analysis, the Materials Research Institute of Massachusetts did not issue a statement sooner or later, but it happened that after Wang Donglai issued the paper, he said that he had developed materials that solved the 'shuttle effect' ', it's really strange.
It is not necessarily that Professor Christopher’s team copied Wang Donglai’s thesis idea. It is also possible that Professor Christopher’s team has made progress, but has been deliberately hiding it, hoping to wait until the problem of lithium-sulfur batteries is completely solved. The problem is to maximize benefits. I just saw Wang Donglai publishing two papers and I was a little anxious. I was afraid that the results would be snatched away, so I issued this statement.
Finally, there is another possibility, that is, Professor Christopher really solved this problem at this time and happened to meet him.
However, the probability of the last possibility is not high, and Xu Songyao is more inclined to the first two.
Only Wang Donglai knows that this statement is probably impossible.
In the past life, the laboratory of Kimchi Country claimed to have solved the problem of room-temperature superconductivity, which shocked the global academic community. Countless people on the Internet were partying, and a new era was coming.
In the end, the other laboratories that worked overtime to replicate the experiments based on the paper all failed. Only then did the Kimchi Country laboratory say that its experimental data was incorrect.
Such things are not uncommon in academia, but many of them have not been exposed on the Internet and remain unknown.
Therefore, Xu Songyao was completely relieved about what happened next.
As for how Wang Donglai handled this patent, it was Wang Donglai's freedom and had nothing to do with Tangdu Jiaotong University.
What he can do is provide help when Wang Donglai needs help.
However, just when Xu Songyao was about to leave, Wang Donglai called out to Xu Songyao.
"Uncle Xu, Mr. Wang from BYD and Mr. Zeng from CTAL will be here later, and we need you to take charge!"
Hearing what Wang Donglai said, Xu Songyao didn't take it seriously because he knew it was Wang Donglai's humble remarks.
This is just a simple business cooperation, there is no difficulty at all. Wang Donglai controls the patent. Both BYD and CATL are in a position to seek cooperation, and there is no need to sit in charge.
“Donglai, this technology is the result of your Galaxy Technology Laboratory and has nothing to do with the school. If I stay here as the principal, it will easily give the outside world a misunderstanding and have a bad image of your company. ”
“Let’s talk about it again , this is a business cooperation, I can't help you, and it involves commercial secrets, so I won't participate."
Xu Songyao made his identity very clear, and he also knew about Tangdu Jiaotong University. I have a general idea of how to get along with Wang Donglai.
That is to fully support Wang Donglai academically, provide the greatest support, and the most relaxed research environment, and provide full support in all aspects.
As for business matters, they are very clear-cut and cannot leave anything that could easily cause problems.
For example, patent ownership!
In fact, Xu Songyao also knows that within the school, many people feel that Wang Donglai has made so much money and many patents were completed in the school, and the school should also have a share of the patents, at least Some money should also be shared.
Xu Songyao emphasized these claims many times at the meeting before suppressing them.
That's why I said this to Wang Donglai at this time.
Wang Donglai also understands Xu Songyao’s thoughts and agrees with Xu Songyao’s approach in his heart. However, he stopped Xu Songyao this time because his next plan is related to Tangdu Jiaotong University and requires Xu Songyao’s presence. .
"Uncle Xu, this is an idea of mine, take a look!"
With that said, Wang Donglai turned his laptop over and gave Xu Songyao the files on the screen. look.
"About the development plan of Qin Province's high-precision technology in the next twenty years"
A big name.
Just seeing this title, Xu Songyao's expression suddenly became serious.
When he read the content inside, Xu Songyao's heart became shocked.
The more he watched, the more serious and solemn Xu Songyao's expression became.
Because the content inside was completely beyond his imagination.
Although I have always known that Wang Donglai has his own views on many issues.
However, Xu Songyao did not expect that Wang Donglai's thoughts had reached this level.
In half an hour, Xu Songyao read this document.
At this time, Xu Songyao had calmed down.
“Donglai, are you serious about the contents of this document?”
Xu Songyao asked extremely seriously, staring at Wang Donglai closely.
"Uncle Xu, I must be serious!"
"I am not just talking about the content here, I am sure of it!"
Hearing Wang Donglai's answer, Xu Songyao shook his head and said: "I'm not saying this, but you are sure you want to do this. If you just If you develop in academia or business, there will be no problem with your ability.”
“But once your document is submitted, the situation will be different if it is not adopted by the higher authorities. That’s okay, if you really adopt it, the things you will bear in the future will be different.”
"Are you ready for this?"
Xu Songyao said very seriously, with deep concern in his words.
"Uncle Xu, I know, I am also ready for this. This lithium-sulfur battery is the beginning!"
Wang Donglai said with a smile on his face and a firm tone said.
Xu Songyao nodded and said no more, thinking about the content of the document written by Wang Donglai.
……
Three o’clock in the afternoon.
It was the same reception room as last time. Wang Donglai saw Brother Boatman and Mr. Zeng again.
When they met again, their attitude toward Wang Donglai had not changed much and they were still enthusiastic.
Wang Donglai did not hide anything and said straight to the point: "Mr. Wang, Mr. Zeng, this is the experimental data from our company's laboratory just now. You two can take a look."
With that said, Wang Donglai handed the data to the two of them.
The two took the document and started reading it immediately.
At this sight, the expressions of the two people changed slightly.
"Professor Wang, is this data really just coming out of your company's laboratory?"
The boatman naturally understands technology and immediately realized the validity of the document in his hand. importance.
"Professor Wang, you said yesterday that it would take a day, could it be for this reason?"
Zeng Qun's eyes flashed, and he thought of Wang Donglai's actions yesterday.
Wang Donglai did not answer the two people's questions, but smiled.
The two of them didn’t care.
Soon, the two of them finished reading the documents, and their expressions became calmer, and Gujing remained calm.
"Professor Wang, this experimental data is not complete enough. It should be that some tests have not been done yet, right?"
Zeng Qun was the first to speak.
“However, Professor Wang can lead your company to develop such materials. He is truly a hero!”
“I was Professor Wang’s age and was still studying in school. Professors have already done so many great things, and it really is the waves behind the Yangtze River that push the waves ahead!"
Zeng Qun chatted with Wang Donglai with a warm smile, and his words were full of admiration for Wang Donglai.
"Professor Wang, people don't tell secrets. BYD is interested in this technology. Professor Wang, do you have any ideas?"
Boatman Brother was also very straightforward and expressed his thoughts directly.
"Okay, Mr. Wang is so happy!"
Wang Donglai clapped his hands and said immediately: "Both bosses can see the future of this technology, so I won't say more. "
"The fact that the two came to me as soon as possible is due to their importance to me and their pursuit of technology." "Let's see how valuable this technology is to the two bosses. ”
Wang Donglai did not directly state his price, but handed each of them a document.
When Brother Boatman and Mr. Zeng heard this, they looked at the documents in their hands and glanced at each other in tacit understanding.
"Professor Wang, this matter is of great importance. We need some time to discuss. Can we prepare other free rooms?"
As a landlord, Xu Songyao immediately made arrangements for this request. got up.
After the boatman brother and Zeng Qun left with their employees, Xu Songyao said to Wang Donglai: "Donglai, are you sure you want to do this?"
"BYD and CATL may not agree to your conditions. Ah!"
Wang Donglai laughed confidently and said: "Uncle Xu, take the initiative now The power is in my hands, and they will not disagree. My request is quite high, but it is still acceptable to the two of them."
"But they may not be like this. I agreed readily."
Xu Songyao nodded, and felt relieved when he saw that Wang Donglai knew what was going on.
...
In a quiet reception room.
The boatman first handed over the experimental data that Wang Donglai handed him to the accompanying technicians.
“Take a good look at these data and see if you can find anything out of them.”
“In addition, analyze these data carefully to see if there is any fraud.”
< br>
After the boatman finished his serious instructions, he no longer paid attention to the technicians. Instead, he sat aside and looked at the conditions proposed by Wang Donglai.
At this sight, the boatman's eyes moved.
Three options.
The first is that Galaxy Technology charges a BYD patent licensing fee of one billion per year. In addition, every vehicle using this technology will receive 5% of the selling price of the vehicle.
The second is to buy out the technology patent, with a fixed price of 5 billion, paid in cash, and paid off within one year.
The third is to jointly develop new energy vehicles, with a patent licensing fee of one billion, but requires BYD to increase investment in Qin Province and Tangdu, build more factories here, and listen to Galaxy on related events. Technology solutions.
After reading these three plans, the boatman was puzzled.
I don’t understand Wang Donglai’s true intention of these three plans at all.
The first and second ones were there for money, no doubt about it.
The third option is a bit strange.
After thinking about it, the boatman still had no clue, so he sat on the sofa with his eyes closed and rested, waiting for the technical staff's analysis.
……
The other side.
Zeng Qun is also doing the same thing as Boatman Brother.
For CTAL, the breakthrough of lithium-sulfur batteries is too important to them.
If there is a breakthrough, they, as an enterprise in this area, will face a major decision.
Should we choose to make breakthroughs in other fields, or should we choose to transform.
If something goes wrong, it will affect the future development of the company.
With such worries, Zeng Qun had no time to look at the conditions offered by Wang Donglai, but was focused on verifying the authenticity of the data.
Those who can be brought here are truly elite technical talents.
In addition, the data given by Wang Donglai are also correct and very detailed.
So, the judgment results will be available soon.
"Mr. Zeng, there is no problem with the experimental data, but the test items are not complete enough. At present, through this data information, it can only be preliminary proved that Galaxy Technology Laboratory has really developed a new material that can solve the problem of lithium Sulfur batteries have a certain effect on the 'shuttle effect'! ”
The technicians are very careful with their words and strive to be accurate.
At this time, Zeng Qun breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Huh!"
Then I thought of Wang Donglai's conditions, and immediately opened the file and started reading.
When he saw the contents inside, Zeng Qun frowned severely.
The content was beyond his expectation.
However, at this time.
A technician suddenly changed his expression and said, "Mr. Zeng, Professor Christopher's paper was published in Advanced Materials."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zeng Qun took out his mobile phone to check it.
……
Wait until we meet again.
Wang Donglai was keenly aware of the change in Zeng Qun's attitude.
Just when Wang Donglai had this feeling in his heart, Zeng Qun said: "Professor Wang, just now, Professor Christopher's paper was published in Advanced Materials, which was about the caged carbon molecule material they developed."
Hearing this, Wang Donglai suddenly realized.
"So that's it. How do you feel about the conditions that Mr. Zeng proposed to me?"
Zeng Qun didn't see the look he wanted to see on Wang Donglai's face. I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed at the change, so I smiled and said aloud: "Mr. Wang, the conditions you proposed are a bit difficult. The matter is so important that I may not be able to make a decision immediately. After all, The company is not my own, I also need to be responsible to the shareholders, so I still need to go back and discuss with other shareholders and the company’s executives.”
“Of course, if the data provided by Mr. Wang can be better. If it is detailed, I believe it will be easier for me to persuade the company’s shareholders and executives, and the conditions proposed by Mr. Wang are not impossible.”
Old fox!
This was Wang Donglai’s first thought after hearing Zeng Qun’s words.
Zeng Qun's words sounded reasonable and well-founded, and he was thinking about Wang Donglai, but if you think about it carefully, you can find that something is wrong.
Who in CATL doesn’t know that Zeng Qun is the core figure and controls the power of the company.
If you really want to cooperate, there is no need to go to such trouble.
"It's okay, Mr. Zeng can think about it slowly!"
"This is a big matter after all, and it cannot be decided hastily!"
Wang Donglai did not say anything else, but followed Zeng Qun's words As he continued speaking, there was no other expression on his face.
"Uh~"
Zeng Qun was a little surprised by Wang Donglai's reaction, but he quickly realized it and thought that Wang Donglai was trying to hold on, so he smiled and said: "In that case, then I I’ll take my leave now, and I’ll go back and discuss it with the rest of the company!”
"Okay!"
Wang Donglai stood up and sent Zeng Qun and others away.
Until he left, Zeng Qun was still in disbelief. He did not expect Wang Donglai to be so calm.
However, after thinking about it, Zeng Qun’s lips curled up and he whispered: “Young man, you are still a little too young. Let me teach you a lesson this time!”
After sending Zeng Qun away, Wang Donglai met the boatman brother.
When they met, the boatman didn't talk about the conditions of cooperation, but asked about technical issues.
