The group in the tea room fell silent.
The group of enthusiastic students never considered business matters.
If their business encounters problems, it will backfire on their scientific research.
Although some scientific research is not for commercial profit.
For example: astronomical research, mathematical exploration, etc.
However, Zhao Lu's research has a very obvious commercial nature.
On one side are students and schools, and on the other side are private companies.
How to achieve a balance?
This will not be a problem in later generations.
However, in this era, not long after the reform and opening up, many practical problems were overlooked.
Many technological achievements have nothing to do with the inventors; they belong to large collectives.
However, Wu Changfeng was not part of a large collective.
Zhao Lu asked, "Boss, how should we allocate them?"
Wu Changfeng laughed and said, "You haven't even produced any results yet, and I'm already going to invest a huge amount of money."
"I don't know what your academic level is like."
"I'm at the biggest risk. I've poured real money into this, and if there are no results, can I hold you accountable?"
"Definitely not."
“Therefore,” Wu Changfeng said very seriously, “first, I will buy out your research results, and regardless of whether they are successful or not, I will pay you the highest salary.”
"Regarding salary, I am absolutely not stingy. 3,000, 5,000, or even 10,000 a month, you can ask for whatever you want."
"Secondly, I will not give you a guaranteed base salary, but rather it will be linked to your research achievements. After the research results are put into the market and the research costs are recouped, a certain percentage will be allocated as bonuses."
"You need to have absolute confidence in this aspect, otherwise it will be a waste of time."
"You choose."
Zhao Lu was dumbfounded.
You can pay 3,000 or 5,000 a month as you please?
Such a high salary is like a windfall!
But he also knew that salary was proportional to ability, and he could pay him five thousand in the first month.
But if they see that your work is not good, you will definitely be demoted, or even fired directly.
After all, nobody's money comes from thin air.
The other option requires taking a gamble.
That's right.
Zhao Lu believed it was a gamble.
If research results don't perform well in the market, the research expenses can't be recouped, so how can there be any bonuses to be awarded?
However, if it goes viral, the bonus will be even more enticing than the guaranteed salary!
Zhao Lu was conflicted.
He could only say, "Could you give us some time to think about it?"
"Of course," Wu Changfeng said with a smile. "It's not like we're in a rush. You can weigh the pros and cons carefully. After all, in business, you can't have your cake and eat it too."
The group drank milk tea and then went to the workshop to start tinkering with bladeless fans.
Wu Changfeng had nothing to do.
I drove over to the Beijing office to see Director Wang.
Director Wang gave Wu Changfeng a thumbs up: "You're really amazing. The provincial leaders all know about your deeds now, and your name is on their list."
Wu Changfeng said modestly, "No, it's just a small-scale operation."
"This is absolutely outrageous! A 300 million project, and you got it for 100 million US dollars."
Director Wang poured tea for Wu Changfeng: "If we wait a few more years, and then need something from you, we'll be able to get it for free, won't we?"
"I don't have that ability. Director Wang is giving me too much credit. You might just kill me with your words."
"Look at what you're saying, you're not as superficial as others, you're very composed," Wang Zhu said seriously. "If it were someone else, they would have been bragging non-stop, and wouldn't be done until they'd given a few speeches."
“Look at you, you’ve always kept a low profile. You know Yu Hong from the National Development and Reform Commission, right? He even called to ask about you.”
Wu Changfeng asked curiously, "I saw this person at the company this morning. Why are you asking?"
"They asked if you were instructed by the province to be stingy, haha."
Wu Changfeng laughed too: "How could that be!"
"As I said, sometimes even contacting the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) doesn't work, let alone the NDRC itself."
Wu Changfeng was a little embarrassed: "Although it's not exactly a compliment, it should have a good effect."
Director Wang nodded: "This is the only way I can help you hold them off for now. Don't worry about the others, just focus on completing the task assigned to you by the province."
"No rush." Wu Changfeng calculated the time: "I'll go back to Jiangcheng in a while, and then go to Japan."
"Earn foreign exchange?"
"Yes."
"Alright!" Director Wang slammed his hand on the table. "I won't put any pressure on you. Feel free to do as you please."
You need to have leverage to put pressure on me!
The provincial leaders are just paying lip service.
Of course, everything was for the sake of making money; the provincial tasks were just something that was accomplished incidentally.
Director Wang asked again, "Have you been free these past few days?"
"Nothing's wrong."
In fact, Wu Changfeng had long planned to hand over the management of Youmei Milk Tea Company to Yu Qingmu.
He withdrew the money from his account and returned to Chishui County.
The bladeless fans at the research institute will take a while to develop, but there shouldn't be any major problems.
Although Zhao Lu wants research funding, they estimate that the two proposals he has given will require some time for negotiation.
The factory in Chishui County also has a new project about to go online.
They don't even know what to do without their own willow branches.
but……
Gu Zhengnan has not yet shown up in the capital.
I don't know if they were scared or if they were plotting something bad.
We'll just have to wait a few more days.
After receiving Wu Changfeng's reply, Director Wang said, "Okay, come with me to the Major Industrial Equipment Department tomorrow."
"You still need me?"
"With you here, I feel more at ease. The province has already organized a group of factory leaders to come over and wait to receive their assignments."
