After the two sides met and exchanged greetings, Ye Qianwen gave a detailed account of the content of Xia Yingying's phone call.
And asked Wan Feng to contact the other party as soon as he arrived in Shenzhen.
Then Ye Qianwen called Xia Yingying.
On the phone, Xia Yingying told Wan Feng that the things he wanted were already in the warehouse of Juchuang Trading Company. There were also two foreigners with him. She also told Wan Feng that the rice and yuan he needed were ready.
Wan Feng expressed his gratitude over the phone and the two parties agreed to meet tomorrow.
After Wan Feng stayed in Shenzhen for one night, the next day, accompanied by Ye Qianwen, the group arrived in Shenzhen in a grand manner.
At Luohu Customs, Xia Yingying was already waiting for him. As soon as Wan Feng arrived, he got into the special car prepared by Xia Yingying.
The special car drove directly to Juchuang Trading’s warehouse.
In the warehouse, Wan Feng saw the items he wanted and the two foreigners.
It was indeed Currie and Calder.
"Hello!" Apart from Hello, Wan Feng had nothing else to say to the two foreigners, and he didn't speak English.
I had to express my condolences through an interpreter.
Next comes the tedious identification process.
First, the files and the computer.
These documents are all written in Helan language, and Juchuang helped with the translation of Helan language.
They were the ones who translated a sample of these materials.
Even if I were to translate it all in ten or eight days, I wouldn't be able to finish it.
After translating a sample of the information and checking the contents of the computer, the next step was the semi-finished machine.
The size of this machine was quite beyond Wan Feng's expectations. It was about the size of a three-ton truck's cargo box and weighed more than two tons.
This thing was shipped back by cargo plane, and the shipping cost alone was 200,000 Mi Yuan.
Calder, who can speak English, kept talking to the machine, with a look of regret and reluctance on his face.
The expert assigned by Wan Shouwu to Wan Feng also had an English-speaking expert who listened to Calder's introduction while comparing the machine with the data.
The identification took two full days, and it was finally confirmed that everything was true.
The information is absolutely true, the machine is a semi-finished product that has not been successfully researched.
Calder's point was that if the money was there, the machine would succeed.
After confirming the authenticity of the data, the two parties signed an authorization agreement, of course with the presence of a lawyer hired by Xia Yingying from the Xianggang Law Firm.
With the lawyer's testimony, Wan Feng used the check prepared by Xia Yingying to transfer 15 million euros to the accounts designated by Curiet and Card on the spot.
The most important clause in the authorization between the two parties is that after these materials are authorized to Wan Feng, Curit's team will no longer be allowed to engage in research on lithography machines.
If there is any violation, Wanfeng will have to pay billions of dollars in compensation.
Foreigners in the 1980s and 1990s still had some sense of contract, but foreigners after 2010 still had some sense of contract. The difference between a mouth and a butt is the difference in their upper and lower positions.
As long as Curit signed the authorization document, Wan Feng believed that he would no longer be involved in research in the field of lithography machines.
The Asmi who became famous in later generations might not exist.
"Mr. Curit, I'd like to ask, what's the future of your Asmi team researching lithography machines?"
At the banquet after the signing ceremony prepared by Xia Yingying, Wan Feng asked after he and Curiet drank a glass of red wine through the translator.
"It's disbanded. It's a shame we've been doing research for four or five years. If we had more funding, we would definitely succeed in another four or five years."
"I wonder how many people are there in your research team?"
"More than twenty main researchers, and some supporting staff."
"I'd like to ask Mr. Currit and Mr. Calder if your team is still interested in continuing research on lithography machines?"
Currit and Calder shook their heads at the same time: "We have already licensed the technology to you. Further research would be a violation of the contract. We will not conduct further research."
"What I mean is this: I'll pay your team two million RMB a year, and you'll come to China to conduct research. We'll cover the research costs, and if you succeed, I'll give you a bonus of ten million RMB. What do you think?"
Although the non-contact lithography machine was destroyed in ASMI's hands, Wan Feng was worried about what would happen to ASMI's noodles and ASMI's oil if ASMI came out again.
It is more accurate to master this technology yourself.
Using our own people for research would undoubtedly mean starting from scratch, which would take many years. However, if we could hire the Curiet team, we would get twice the result with half the effort.
Of course, the remuneration is also expensive.
The normal annual salary of his entire Nanwan Group's more than 4,000 employees is only 2 million yuan.
He offered this price right away.
In the late 1980s, the annual income of Europeans was only about 10,000 to 20,000 euros, which was far less than the premium of hundreds of thousands or even millions of euros a decade later.
He believed that the price he offered was enough to attract the other party.
Of course, the two million is just the asking price for the core team, and Chinese people can be used as auxiliary personnel.
Wan Feng's suggestion aroused the interest of Curit and Card, and the two guys chatted for a while.
"I'm going to go back and discuss this with my team members. If they're willing to come, we'll contact them."
There is nothing wrong with what the other party said.
Wan Feng asked Han Guangjia to personally escort Curit and Carde onto the plane to Europe.
The 15 million euros that Juchuang advanced to Wanfeng plus their 1 million euros in handling fees totaled 16 million euros, which Wanfeng exchanged for Chinese currency.
Now it’s time to figure out how to get these things to the mainland and bring them back to Jiangwei.
Wan Feng inquired in detail about Juchuang Trading Company's contacts in Europe and how to transport goods from Europe to Xianggang, not even skipping some small details.
Wan Feng didn't think there was anything wrong with the other party's answer.
It seems that I have been thinking too much.
The customs clearance procedures from Xianggang to the mainland are very simple thanks to the existence of Juchuang Trading Company.
They are engaged in trade themselves, so solving this problem is no problem for them.
The customs clearance procedures were completed quickly and we just need to start the shipment and clear customs tomorrow.
Wan Feng always felt that things were going a little too smoothly.
This made him a little uneasy.
"Secretary Xia, can you give me another place to put this machine for one night?" Wan Feng changed his mind temporarily.
"You feel unsafe here?"
"I always feel that this thing is a little too smooth. Don't you have another warehouse?"
"Okay! I'll have someone move this box to another warehouse right away."
It was already dark at this time. After Xia Yingying directed the move of the box, the people who followed Wan Feng's car to move it were Yang Jianguo, Han Meng, Zhao Gang and the three people brought by Han Guangjia.
The task of Yang Jianguo and the other six is to guard this machine and that box of information tonight.
As for the computer, Wan Feng dismantled it and only took away the floppy drive and hard drive containing the data.
