Who could possibly provoke Old Master Sun like this?
"Don't tell me that. They are clearly in the wrong. Our decision will not change."
After saying that, Old Sun angrily hung up the phone.
"What's wrong, Mr. Sun?"
"Yangben actually demanded that we release Takeuchi Shun and that principal, saying that they were both important figures in Yangben."
Especially that school principal, who is known as the "Flower of Spy Kings" in their own country.
If I had that power, I could have killed that damn Ming spy.
They're even asking us to return people. Who gave them the courage?
Seeing Old Sun's furrowed brows, I asked:
"Do they still have threats?"
"Yes! If we don't release them, they will stop all auto parts exports."
I know that in the current car market, domestic cars account for almost 60% of the market. They are using this to block us, which puts Mr. Sun in a difficult position.
But, "Old Sun! Don't you think this is an opportunity?"
"oh?"
"What I mean is to break free from dependence on Japanese automotive technology and focus on developing domestically produced cars."
"Then we need technical support!"
"Our current problem is simply a lack of engine technology. I can share some of our internal combustion engine technology with you."
Old Sun's eyes lit up: "Zheng Yang! Why don't you invest your technology in our First Automobile Works?"
I didn't care: "Sure!"
"I'll call them now, and you can prepare the documents."
I only need to do a little sorting of the information.
Old Sun contacted the First Factory, which excited the general manager so much that he wanted to come right away.
Old Sun told him not to rush and to discuss with me whether he should go back to Kyoto with him.
There's nothing much going on here. The generator can be remotely guided, and the electromagnetic railgun program can be prepared and transmitted over.
"Oh well!"
...
Sun Lao, Jiang Lan, and I left by train the next day.
I also want to see what other tricks Yang Benguo is up to.
Old Master Sun has his own private jet, but Jiang Lan insisted on flying on my plane.
My plane was fast enough that we arrived in Kyoto and waited for Mr. Sun for an hour.
Then Mr. Sun took us to the main compound area.
There are armed sentries standing guard at the entrance.
Mr. Sun gave me a card directly.
The card is connected to a key: "From now on, Courtyard No. 17 is yours."
"ah?"
"You don't have to stay, but we have to provide for you."
Um... "Thank you, boss."
This large compound also has public areas with various facilities such as chess and card games, fitness equipment, movie screenings, books and newspapers, calligraphy, and more. All of these facilities are completely free.
Old Sun led us to a teahouse, and many people nodded at us.
There are many familiar faces here, mostly directors and general managers.
The general manager of Factory No. 1 had already arrived; before we even got there, he came running over.
"Old Sun!" He greeted Old Sun first, then shook hands with me:
"Engineer Zheng! My name is Pang Xinjian! I am the general manager of FAW Group."
I've heard about your skills before. If you're really interested in collaborating with us, feel free to name your terms.
"I don't really need anything, it's fine with me! My main concern is that I want to export car electronic control systems and engines to China from you."
I don't know much about the engines on the market right now, but you can take a look at my engine and electronic control system.
This is what I compiled last night.
Pang Xinjian took the computer and his eyes widened as he looked at it:
"Multi-point injection plus turbocharging system?"
I didn't understand what he meant: "What's wrong?"
"Engineer Zheng! Are you going to license this technology to us for production?"
Judging from Pang Xinjian's expression, he was extremely excited.
"Really? If you think this isn't advanced enough, I also have hybrid and hydrogen-powered vehicles."
"No, no! This is already excellent. Engineer Zheng! I guarantee that if this engine is successfully developed, it will revolutionize the domestic automobile manufacturing industry."
Anyway, I don't understand this: "I also have a continuously variable transmission (CVT) system here."
"Great! How about this: I'll license the patented technology to you on a per-unit basis? One set... 100,000?"
This price is quite high, considering that domestic cars are still mostly in the low-to-mid-range market, with many being low-end models.
Some cars can't even sell for 100,000.
"How about this! Fifty thousand for one set, but the First Factory can't monopolize the technology, other factories can also get it."
Furthermore, as long as you independently develop more than 60% of the technology based on my existing technology, you won't need to pay me licensing fees.
"this!"
Not to mention Pang Xinjian, even Old Sun and Jiang Lan were astonished.
Old Sun: "Zheng Yang! Developing this independently based on your work, wouldn't you consider that a technological upgrade for you? And it's free?"
"Yes! I want them to use their own brains."
Pang Xinjian suddenly grabbed my hand: "Engineer Zheng! I understand now, you're trying to stimulate our country's independent innovation development!"
That's right. How can we just rely on other people's technology for everything?
"If you think it's a good idea, Mr. Pang, then please help me promote it!"
"No problem, I'm familiar with other car manufacturers too."
"Okay, I'll get in touch now, how about we have lunch together?"
Let me look at Old Sun.
"Don't look at me, this is your own business."
Actually, I was checking to see if Old Sun had any more tasks for me.
Since he said so, I'll go with Pang Xinjian. Anyway, Old Sun usually doesn't attend dinner parties.
"Okay! Give me a call once you've made the arrangements."
