Zhou Yin didn't expect the research institute to be run so well, it was really beyond his expectations.
When Shen Annian first proposed to set up this research institute, many people were not optimistic about it, saying that they were paying to support idle people.
But now, so many things come from research institutes. It can be said that if there were no research institutes, they would earn less than half of their money.
"How do we sell it? The materials are theirs, they assembled it, and the location is theirs. How can we negotiate the price?"
Director Fang: "I'm worried about this too. Once they produce the machines, they must sell them.
I heard that a machine like this costs tens of thousands of dollars out there, so we'd be at a loss no matter how much we ask."
The more you sell, the more you get. No one knows how much it will sell for in the end.
If the bid was one hundred or two hundred thousand, he would feel he was losing money.
If the price is over a million, the machinery factory will definitely not agree.
That's why he was in trouble.
Zhou Yin: "It's best to discuss this with Nian Nian. She has a lot of clever ideas."
Director Fang: "I thought so too. Let's go ask her if she has any good ideas first. If she really can't come up with one, I'll ask for one hundred thousand or two hundred thousand. That will also be an income."
Squad Leader Hu looked at him with wide eyes. One hundred thousand? Two hundred thousand?
How come he said it as if it were ten or twenty yuan?
Is money so worthless now?
"Wow, this is too profitable."
When Director Fang heard this, he started complaining, "How can I make any money? I'm so poor.
We sold a lot of goods during the New Year period and made a lot of money. The brigade commander waved his hand and used more than 500,000 yuan to buy equipment.
I've worked all year for nothing, and there's not a cent left on the books."
When Director Fang mentioned this matter, his heart was still bleeding.
The brigade commander was so cruel that he didn't even leave him a penny.
Liu Xianzong was extremely happy, "I was wondering why the troops changed their equipment, so this is it."
He patted Director Fang on the shoulder and said, "You've done it, kid. The army's equipment upgrades will all depend on you."
Director Fang felt quite proud after hearing his praise.
But his stingy nature still made him feel uncomfortable.
That’s more than 500,000 yuan. It took so many people working day and night for almost two months to earn that much money.
The brigade commander used it all up in an instant.
Zhou Yin suddenly asked him, "I heard the Martyrs' Cemetery is about to be renovated?"
“It’s almost done, it’s in the final stages now, and we plan to have it completed before the Qingming Festival.
On Qingming Festival, let the school children go to pay respect to the martyrs and let them know how hard it is to have a peaceful life like today."
Zhou Yin nodded, this was a good idea.
"Then we'll go visit our fallen brothers and bring them a bottle of wine."
He served as a soldier on the border for several years, and some of his soldiers, including those who served in the same period as him, are buried in the Martyrs' Cemetery.
He has to go see them during the Qingming Festival and tell them that the Third Regiment has become better now.
Director Fang: "Okay, we'll go take a look when the time comes, and tell the children how the martyrs sacrificed their lives."
After dinner, Director Fang went to his guard post.
After resting for a while, I finally saw Qin Zhengqi riding a bicycle over, and sitting on the back seat was Shen Annian.
Qin Zhengqi stopped the bicycle, Shen Anyian jumped off, and prepared to ride to the winery by himself.
Director Fang came out and said, "Niannian, don't leave yet. I have something to discuss with you."
Shen Annian put his feet on the ground, "What's the matter?"
"Come here first, let's discuss it."
Shen Anyian and Qin Zhengqi looked at each other before walking over.
Director Fang welcomed them into the booth and said, "Come on, come in, let's talk inside."
Shen An Nian sat down and asked, "Director, what's going on?"
Director Fang closed the door of the booth and then sat down.
"Didn't Researcher Lin go to Hu City a few days ago? The machinery factory was very interested in our freeze dryer and wanted to buy it from us.
I thought we didn't need many freeze dryers, so we could sell them to them, but I didn't know how to set the price.
If we ask for a million or so, they probably won't give it to us. If we ask for only 100,000 or 200,000, we will lose too much.
I've asked people and learned that a freeze dryer costs tens of thousands of dollars. They produce freeze dryers for sure to sell them.
How do you think we should ask for this money?"
Shen Annian thought for a moment and said, "I think it's best for us not to ask them for money directly. Whether it's one or two hundred thousand or even millions, it's all small change.
We take a share of the profits. When we sell a freeze dryer, we get 50% and they get 50%.
Without our technology, the freeze dryer wouldn't be made, and the materials would be nothing more than scrap metal. I think 60% is a fair price."
Director Fang slapped his thigh, wondering why he hadn't thought of this.
He knew that as long as he mentioned making money, he and Shen Annian had the same idea.
If it weren't for their technology, the machinery factory would not be able to make freeze dryers.
This is the result of the hard work of dozens of people in their institute who have been working day and night for more than half a year.
It’s not too much to ask for a 60% profit.
"You're right, we should still split the profits, but we want 60%, and they probably won't agree."
Shen Annian smiled and said, "That depends on your ability, Director. When the time comes, you can go talk to them. I think as long as you take action, there will be no problem."
Director Fang: "It's hard to say that, I will definitely try my best to negotiate this matter.
If it really doesn't work out, it would be good if we can negotiate it down to 50%.
I just don’t know if the freeze-drying machine business is going to be good. If it doesn’t sell well, will we lose money?”
