Lin Sanqi was not modest either, and then gave an even bigger surprise:
"The information I brought with me this time includes not only 1250 mAh X-ray machine technology, but also the next generation of X-ray machine technology, computed radiography. However, I'm not an engineer. While the information is comprehensive, how you develop it depends on your engineers' abilities."
Lin Sanqi deliberately reported a long string of English words instead of the abbreviation CR, just to be mysterious.
Sure enough, Lou Jingye, chief engineer of Shanghai Precision Medical Machinery Factory, patted his chest and said:
"Comrade Lin Sanqi, don't worry. You've already got the ready-made information. If we can't make a machine, it means we're incompetent. We'll ask the leadership to punish us."
Lou Jingye is also a returned overseas college student. Now he is extremely excited and feels very excited.
For this kind of technology geek, there is nothing more meaningful than creating inventions and technological upgrades.
Hearing Engineer Lou's assurance, Lin Sanqi reminded:
"Leaders Jing, Cheng, and Jiang, you must classify this information as top secret and make sure it's not stolen by enemy agents. Also, I suggest you immediately set up a shell company in Hong Kong or abroad and apply for all patents.
If we don't apply for patents, it will be easy for foreign companies to crack our inventions. Then they will make money by taking advantage of our existing inventions. I won't allow this.
Then we can declare to the public that we invented the 1250 mAh X-ray machine and the computed radiography machine, which will give us face. Then we can publicly announce that all our patents have been sold to a foreign company.
By then, the patents of this shell company can be licensed to foreign medical device manufacturers, which will be enough to earn huge amounts of foreign exchange. So now everyone should change their mindset and not disclose technology for free or provide free aid to foreign countries.
Now that we have money, we can invest more in new research and development, and we can also purchase food to alleviate the domestic food crisis. Using foreign money to develop our country's industrial agriculture is the right path."
Leader Cheng said with emotion:
"Comrade Xiaolin, your idea is very good and very feasible. I will recommend this to the Central Committee after I return to the capital. We must not only save face but also have substance. We must absolutely not continue to bluff and pretend to be rich.
"Since we have such advanced technology, it would be foolish to watch foreigners make a fortune using it if we can't turn it into economic benefits. We'd be better off making the money ourselves."
Mayor Jiang of Shanghai also agreed:
"Yes, before liberation, it was foreigners who made money from us Chinese. Now it should be the other way around. We should use the money we make from foreigners to build our motherland. This is not shameful, but a skill. Don't you agree?"
Leader Jing agreed, "Yes, only by developing the economy can the people's living standards be improved and the country become strong and prosperous. If the people are not happy, if they don't have enough food and clothing, then this kind of national prosperity is not the kind of prosperity we Communists need."
Lin Sanqi sighed inwardly, wondering if this time-traveling butterfly of his could change the course of history.
However, he was somewhat pessimistic. After all, hybrid grain technology, a good thing that benefits the country and the people and can change history, did not work in the end and was directly shot.
Hundreds of workers and engineers in the factory started to get busy, and there was nothing for Lin Sanqi to do. He was about to leave when Leader Cheng pulled him into an office next door.
Leader Jing was a little puzzled, because Lin Sanqi didn't fall under the jurisdiction of the Foreign Affairs Department. Since he was the one who handled the matter, how could he not go through him? So he followed him in.
Both of them are important figures at the ministerial level, especially Leader Jing, who also serves as the head of the General Logistics Department, so his rank is even higher, so it's okay to listen to him.
After Leader Cheng entered the room, he asked Leader Jing to close the door, then he shook Lin Sanqi's hand firmly.
"Comrade Sanqi, I called you here not because of the X-ray machine, but because I was asked to thank you for your donation of diamonds.
These diamonds are so precious. According to professional evaluation, their value is between 20 million and 30 million US dollars, which is equivalent to half of the national treasury.
The higher-ups have decided to sell a small portion in Hong Kong, and take the majority to various countries around the world. All proceeds from the sales will be converted into food and urgently shipped back to China. Comrade Sanqi, you have saved so many lives."
Lin Sanqi was delighted when he heard this, a genuine joy from the bottom of his heart. He hadn't expected his superiors to be so decisive and immediately exchange it for food.
The outcome he feared most was that these diamonds would be stored in the national treasury as strategic resources and would be of no use, in which case his donation would have been in vain.
Just like money, it is only useful when you spend it and get what you need in return. Otherwise, it is just like the silver winter melon in the cellar of a rich man in Shanxi.
Leader Jing didn't understand what was going on, but when he heard about 20 to 30 million US dollars, he was shocked:
"Old Cheng, what's going on? What happened to Comrade Xiaolin? Why don't I understand?"
Leader Cheng laughed heartily:
"Comrade Kobayashi not only helped us get the X-ray production line back to Hong Kong this time, but also donated diamonds worth 20 to 30 million US dollars. The higher-ups have decided to sell all the diamonds and exchange them for food to be shipped back to China. Comrade Kobayashi has performed a great service."
Wow~~~
Leader Jing looked at Lin Sanqi, a little confused.
Now everyone in the country, from top to bottom, knows that Lin Sanqi is a "smuggler" and a smuggler with powerful connections.
So what's the purpose of these people working so hard to smuggle goods? Of course, it's to make money.
Although Lin Sanqi only wants medicinal herbs and jade in every transaction, if these two things cannot bring economic benefits to him or the organization behind him, why would others allow him to always purchase medicinal herbs?
So it’s just a matter of how much you can make from Chinese medicinal materials and jade, but it’s absolutely impossible not to make money.
But no matter how much money you make, you can't possibly make that much, right? Donating tens of millions of dollars in one go? How much can you earn from smuggling for so long?
Could it be that Lin Sanqi was actually an undercover agent of our Party, hidden within the smuggling ring, wholeheartedly serving the nation?
With twenty or thirty million US dollars in front of them, let alone ordinary people, even Zheng Yaoxian, Yu Zecheng, Ming Lou, or Jing Qisheng, would they really not be tempted?
At this moment, Leader Jing really couldn't see through Lin Sanqi.
A senior leader looked shocked, another senior director looked admiring, and Lin Sanqi waved his hands a little guiltily. After all, those were fake diamonds and he didn't pay much for them.
"It's okay, it's okay. I just did what I was supposed to do. I don't deserve the central government's praise, hehe."
Leader Cheng nodded repeatedly:
"Well said. Every citizen has a share of responsibility for the success or failure of a nation. Each of us should make our own contribution to building the nation. Comrade Kobayashi, rest assured that the nation will not forget your contribution."
Lin Sanqi thought, maybe in a few decades these diamonds will be found to be fake, just don’t blame me, I won’t dare to accept the contribution.
On the one hand, he donated diamonds to help solve the food crisis in the country, but on the other hand, it was also like paying protection money.
Just like this production line transaction, multiple departments across the country took emergency action, and even special planes were dispatched, all to serve Lin Sanqi alone.
Even though the country also obtained the X-ray production line, Lin Sanqi couldn't just remain silent. His emotional intelligence was too low.
As for if he donates diamonds now, will he be treated like a fat pig and be forced to donate again and again in the future?
Lin Sanqi is not afraid of this. After all, if the current No. 1 doesn't even have this kind of vision, then it would be Gaddafi, Saddam Hussein, or the mustache painter.
Besides, he is planning to leave in a few years, so why should he care about the flood behind him?
It's impossible that after donating tens of millions of diamonds to the country, problems and negative consequences would arise, right? Even if it were darker, it wouldn't be this dark. Don't forget the story of buying a horse for a huge sum of money.
…
…
From the Shanghai Precision Medical Machinery Factory, Lin Sanqi and Pan Ye returned to the guesthouse.
Domestic guesthouses cannot be compared with the five-star rooms of the Hong Kong Regent Hotel. Moreover, in China, Lin Sanqi and Pan Ye lived in two separate rooms and did not dare to step out of line.
Although it was already mid-October, there were still a lot of mosquitoes in the guesthouse. Lin Sanqi really couldn't stand it and was just bored when there was a knock on the door.
Lin Sanqi opened the door and saw that it was Mayor Jiang's secretary.
"Hello, Comrade Lin. I've been assigned by my superiors to bring you some receipts. If you're bored in the guesthouse, you can go out for a walk with Comrade Pan."
Lin Sanqi took over a thick envelope, which contained not only 500 kilograms of national food coupons, but also a large number of movie tickets, cloth coupons, meat coupons, oil coupons, etc., and even watch tickets, bicycle tickets, and sewing machine tickets.
There was also 1,000 yuan in cash.
These money and bills may not be a big deal in Lin Sanqi's eyes, but in the eyes of ordinary people, they are huge wealth that they dare not even dream of.
People with better conditions have to buy three big things if they want to get married. Not to mention the money, even if they have money, they can't get the tickets. They have to beg for help and may not succeed.
Lin Sanqi was quite grateful. He had no shortage of money, but he was short of these bills. After all, in this era, money was really useless and bills were king.
"Thank you, Mayor Jiang, and Secretary Wang. These are truly precious treasures. Haha."
Secretary Wang was also very polite:
"Our Mayor Jiang said that you helped Shanghai acquire the world's most advanced X-ray machine production line, even naming the brand after Shanghai. This is the best support for our city, and we can't thank you enough."
After the two said goodbye, Lin Sanqi quickly put the bills into his backpack and went upstairs to knock on Pan Ye's door... (End of this chapter)
