To be precise, it is a refined assembly line operation.
Refinement and standardization became the industry benchmark 76 years after the formal establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States.
The bald eagle discovered that the rabbit's industrial system was a mess, so it established its own.
During the establishment process, Bald Eagle discovered a miraculous management system, the so-called five-star management system.
Because of this system, they have saved a lot of trouble. In fact, many factories in the Bald Eagle region have also started to adopt this system.
The creator of this system was Wang Shouren.
This guy was ahead of the country for a full twenty years.
“You should know what this means.” The old man puffed on his cigarette. “This one achievement alone is enough for him to live off his past achievements for the rest of his life.”
“Indeed,” the middle-aged man wholeheartedly agreed.
This is no small achievement. On a smaller scale, it increased factory output; on a larger scale, it became an important benchmark for enhancing national strength.
"However, this person's vision is indeed ahead of its time."
"Ha, this is nothing, just the smallest one in his career," the old man chuckled.
"Dad, you're exaggerating. With this kind of achievement, putting everything else aside, as long as he doesn't make any mistakes and continues to work hard in this area, he'll be a shoo-in for the top position in the Ministry of Industry in the future." The middle-aged man himself hadn't reached that position, but he knew the value of this achievement.
The old man waved his hand: "If he were just the head of the Ministry of Industry, his information wouldn't be recorded in the archives for people to study."
"Research?"
"Hey, the Zhao family, you know them?"
"The Zhao family of the strategist group?"
"That's right. The Zhao family was quite well-known in Beijing back then, but it wasn't a good reputation. They were a wealthy family, and you know how wealthy people were at that time. Some of them ran away around 1966 and never came back. Others did return, but they went through a lot of hardships. But the Zhao family was different. As soon as they came back, they immediately became part of the strategist group. Do you know why?"
"It can't be related to him too, can it?"
"It really is related to him. In 1966, Zhao Wuliang planned to go to the United States to avoid trouble. He wasn't really sure what he could do afterward. At that time, Wang Shouren told him to study the patents of the United States. In the future, we will have some economic struggle with the United States..."
"Wait a minute..." The middle-aged man interrupted his father: "Dad, you're not kidding me, are you? Wang Shouren, born in 1966, is only 22?"
“Yes.” The old man nodded. “That’s the really puzzling part. How did he know that? Don’t doubt it, this was something that old man Zhao Wuliang said himself. Zhao Wuliang said that at the time he thought Wang Shouren was just giving him a direction to put his mind at ease, but after thinking about it later, it seems that it really wasn’t like that.”
The old man took another puff of his cigarette: "Because after he went to the United States, he calmed down and thought about it carefully, and found that there really was such a possibility. He studied the economic system of the United States based on his own understanding of technology and his belief that my country could rise. But what about Wang Shouren? What gave him the right? At that time, he had never even left the country."
"How could he know about patent matters?"
The old man sighed; "There's really no way of knowing these things."
"Could it be..."
"What is it that..." The old man glared at him: "What kind of good spy would put such a person here? Before the 1990s, he was the one who mostly propped up our country's exchange rate. Oh, well, it's not entirely accurate to say that he was the only one who sold at a loss and made a fortune. Is this how your spy did it?"
"That……"
"Moreover, he resigned back in '79, staying away from politics. In his old age, he didn't even stay in Beijing anymore; he just left whenever he wanted." The old man's rebuttal left the middle-aged man speechless.
He could only shrug and say, "Okay, okay, I was just having a doubt. Please continue."
"Because of this, Zhao Wuliang went to study those patent laws. Later, as you know, after he returned, the country introduced some things related to this. It was just the beginning. You should know what happened after that."
Middle-aged men naturally understand this.
That can be considered the first step in China's counterattack against foreign capital.
Foreign investors assumed Chinese people were unfamiliar with patent law and, after some persuasion, tried to register some domestic technologies as patents. However, after paying exorbitant fees, they discovered the patents had already been registered abroad. Furious, they reconsidered and decided to let it slide. After all, their partner was a country, not just a company.
Moreover, this country has not yet joined the WTO.
Not every company has the ability to seize patents, nor does every company have the resources to litigate against a country.
Moreover, going to court is not necessarily a good thing.
Once the lawsuit goes to court, aside from anything else, your competitors will definitely investigate why you're even filing a lawsuit. And lo and behold, there's something good to be had! Once the competitors get involved, the outcome is pretty much guaranteed. A country naturally has plenty of time to waste on them, and besides, it can also boost its reputation through this lawsuit. Why wouldn't it do something like this?
After foreign capital entered the market, it invested a large sum of money but failed to secure any patents.
At this point, sunk costs have already been incurred.
Fortunately, China wasn't without its attractions; its cheap labor force was a real asset. Therefore, during that period, many investors chose to build factories in China.
Zhao Wuliang, from the Zhao family, also accumulated a great deal of merit for himself because of these patent-related matters.
Only then can we say that we have truly established ourselves.
"So, Mr. Zhao did it because of Wang Shouren..."
"You could say that, or you could say it was mutually beneficial. Wang Shouren's strategic vision went far beyond that; he married three wives, oh no, four."
"Wh...what the hell?" The middle-aged man was dumbfounded: "Wasn't he...?"
"Oh, the reason he left his job was because he violated discipline. At that time, he had been with his two wives for more than ten years. It's just that someone reported him in 1979. It was later proven that he was the one who asked someone to report him."
The middle-aged man frowned: "What's the point of this now?"
"For what? Ha."
