A group of people entered the restaurant talking and laughing.

Before Qin Tao could find a seat to sit down, when he passed a certain table, the person who was dining stood up.

"Mr. Qin!"

This tone of voice is very special, not because of ridicule, but because the speaker is a foreigner.

Qin Tao looked over in surprise: "Michelle?"

Mbappe was also sitting there, waving to Qin Tao: "Qin, I sincerely invite you to dine at our table. This oriental food is really good!"

Their table was filled with delicious food.

Qin Tao nodded: "Okay, I'm very honored."

These senior executives of GT Company were originally staying at the Huating Hotel, and now it was dinner time. Unexpectedly, they bumped into each other like this.

Qin Tao looked at the people around him and said: "Let me introduce to you, this is Manager Zhang of our Shipbuilding Industry Corporation, and this is Director Wang of Huating Shipyard."

Forget about the other people, I can introduce them to these two people.

Qin Tao introduced to the two people around him: "These are all from the French GT company. Mr. Mbappe is the person in charge of the company, Michel is the technical director of the company, and..."

Manager Zhang and Factory Director Wang were both surprised. The focus of today's meeting was actually the natural gas tanker. Although no resolution was reached in the end, Factory Manager Wang had already made up his mind to follow Qin Tao and the others, but they didn't expect it.

, unexpectedly, while eating, I could see the leader in the natural gas ship industry, GT Company!

"Welcome, welcome, everyone, please come and eat together." This time, Mbappe also stood up.

If there was only Qin Tao, he could still support him and just sit there. However, the person in charge of China Shipbuilding Industry Corporation is different. His status is higher than him.

Once everyone is seated, eating becomes secondary.

"Manager Zhang, you have a large number of shipyards. If you want to continue to develop, you must manufacture new types of ships, especially natural gas ships. On behalf of the company, I welcome your inspection at any time."

Mbappe has already begun to pave the way for their company's business expansion.

The scale of their company is not large. They make money by selling patents. All the companies in Europe that can buy their patents for shipbuilding have already bought them. If they want to continue to expand their scale, they have to move to the East.

Therefore, they expect to sell more patents here.

"Of course, we at CSSC have also admired GT Company for a long time. We will definitely go and inspect it when we have time in the future."

Now that you have encountered it, it is a matter of course. Regardless of whether it is introduced or not, it is always necessary to go and take a look.

"Mr. Mbappe, just wait and continue to make money from now on. We are meeting today to discuss the issue of natural gas ships." Qin Tao started to lie from the side: "If nothing else, Yinwa Steel's automatic welding equipment,

It must be purchased.”

Mbappe's eyes lit up.

After Qin Tao left yesterday, they discussed it, but no resolution was reached.

If Mingzhou Group is a Western company, they will admit it. It is obviously a company from a backward Eastern country, but it wants to sell patents to them. They really can't lose face. How can a proud French company buy a Chinese company?

patent?

However, if they don't buy it, their research and development route will be blocked, and the plan proposed by Qin Tao is not too extreme.

In this way, they repeatedly weighed and failed to reach a consensus, and they could only be happy when it was time to eat.

Now, let’s talk about work again.

Although Mingzhou Group has relevant patents, Mingzhou Group does not have various equipment! More than 90% of the welds of Yinwa Steel’s liquid cargo fence require automatic welding machines. For these, they only

Can be imported.

If you use their GT company, you can also make a lot of money!

"Director Wang and I have just reached a decision on patent licensing for natural gas ships." Qin Tao said: "Their shipyard needs to purchase some automatic welding equipment. In the future, more shipyards will join in.

Mr. Mbappe, how do you think about what happened yesterday?"

This can be regarded as opening the skylight and speaking openly.

Although it cost them two-fifths of the patent fee, which was a bit much, they still let them take the bulk after all. Moreover, the insulated boxes and the like were all given to them for free. Qin Tao was also very generous.

Now, Qin Tao has given a new benefit. As long as they are willing to agree to yesterday's request, then Qin Tao can purchase these automatic welding equipment through them and let them make a fortune.

Anyway, they are not the only ones who can contact. Qin Tao can directly contact the relevant factories. After all, those welding equipment are still in use in Mingzhou, and the factory has specialized technicians responsible for maintenance. Moreover, not only this factory, but also

There are other factories in Germany and the UK that can help, so you don’t need to go through them at all.

This is an exchange of interests.

Mbappe looked at several other people around him, exchanged opinions, and finally nodded: "After our careful consideration and research, we can accept your proposal, but it still needs the approval of the company's board of directors and needs to go through

It will take some time before we can sign the agreement."

"Okay, our Huating Shipyard also needs a period of preparation. By then, the relevant agreements can be signed together."

Factory Director Wang felt that Qin Tao was using them as a negotiating weapon, but it didn't matter. Qin Tao gave them a 2% patent fee, which was quite low. They would be the second to enter this market and then become the shipbuilding company.

A new profit growth point for the factory.

The meal was very enjoyable. After the meal, Qin Tao and Xu Zhengyang went home. They only worked for half a day at most every day, leaving half a day to spend with their wives.

On the way back, Xu Zhengyang continued to sigh.

"Mr. Qin, GT Company really agreed. This is a new era for our group."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "There are so many benefits, and they can't get around the relevant technical routes, so of course they have to reach an agreement with us." Qin Tao said: "If you have money, let's make it together."

"By the way, Huating Shipyard, how can you give them a 2% authorization price?"

"It goes without saying that 2%, 1%, or even 0.5% will do. After all, our family cannot build so many ships. If we build them together, it will drive the development of the entire shipbuilding industry in our country. It is also our

It is obligatory." Qin Tao said.

Xu Zhengyang turned his head and glanced at Qin Tao, trying to see the hypocrisy on his expression.

but none.

Qin Tao really thinks so. Looking at the competitive situation of international natural gas ships in the future, if they can be sold more expensively, of course they should be more expensive, so as to make money from foreigners. If not, then he is willing to lower the patent fees and let domestic shipyards

Be in an advantageous position in the competition.

As for the issue of making money, Qin Tao actually didn't want to make much money through patent fees. They wanted to engage in industry. The Yinwa Steel to build natural gas ships needed to be purchased from the Mingzhou Steel Plant.

Even if other steel mills want to produce this kind of Yinwa steel, it will not be easy because they do not have a stable source of nickel. Only 36% of nickel can be used to create Yinwa steel, which is not something ordinary steel plants can do.

Done.

Even if it is just supporting domestic shipyards and providing Yinwa steel, it will be enough for Mingzhou Group to make money. To expand the production of natural gas ships, of course, there is also the consideration of expanding the Yinwa steel market.

In addition to these, there are some other things, such as various anti-freeze valves, which also have very high requirements. They are all independently produced by Mingzhou Shipyard and can be sold for money.

Therefore, Qin Tao is very generous. He must charge royalties, but he can charge less. Of course, he must charge them on a ship-by-ship basis. He must have a stable source of profit and cannot let other shipyards take advantage.

After returning home, Zhao Ling and her mother-in-law were not there and had gone for a walk. Wu Shengli also came back. After seeing Qin Tao, Wu Shengli immediately spoke: "Went to attend a Hongmen Banquet today?"

"Yes, it was roasted on the fire for a while. Now, those people are probably building a scarecrow."

Wu Shengli smiled: "Those people's gazes can kill people, right?"

"Yes, I am thick-skinned and thick-skinned. By the way, Dad, I have something to report to you."

"Say it."

"We at Mingzhou Group also want to participate in the Asian Defense Exhibition." Qin Tao said: "We plan to make some ship models, but the weapon systems equipped on them need to be approved by the navy."

"Well, let's talk about it."

"Currently, our main product is the 054 frigate." Qin Tao said: "Almost all the weapons and equipment on this warship are copied from Lao Maozi, so there are not many secrets at all.

, if the Navy agrees, we will use this warship as the basis to launch a brand new frigate, which will definitely steal the show at this defense exhibition."

In terms of surface ships, Mingzhou Shipyard really doesn’t have much to offer.

The original anti-aircraft destroyer has a large displacement and is limited by gas turbines and anti-aircraft missiles, so it cannot be exported. Besides, even if it is exported, no user can appreciate it. After all, this kind of warship only focuses on air defense, and some

Tasteless.

The 054 is different. The engine is owned by itself, and all kinds of air defense equipment are also owned by itself. Therefore, it can be mass-produced at any time. After improvement, it is not that difficult to export and make foreign money.

"Air defense missiles are not good, but other systems are fine." Wu Shengli immediately replied to Qin Tao.

"What?"

Qin Tao was a little embarrassed: "The biggest advantage of our frigate is the vertically launched air defense missile system. Without it, what else would we use for publicity? Besides, if it can be sold, it can also bring a fortune to relevant units.

Profit!"

In countries like the United States and Lao Maozi, arms sales are divided into grades, with high-grade products for personal use and low-grade products for export.

It’s not just Lao Maozi who is shrinking, the United States is no exception. When it sold the F-16 to China, it planned to forcefully insert the J79 turbojet engine into it, but not the turbofan engine version. The famous M1 tank, in

After export, the armor protection is also weak.

But China is different.

When China exports, a common practice it follows is that what is exported is better than what is used for its own use.

In terms of aircraft, the J-7 fighter jets switched to Marconi's avionics and had a head-up display, which was first sold abroad. The Air Force thought it was good, so they equipped a batch of them. The Army is even more so.
