Chapter 129: You guessed wrong

"One million US dollars?" The people from the Provincial Foreign Affairs Office, the translator, and even Shui Rou, who were here to accompany Chen Mingluo to negotiate, were surprised. They had never thought that a faucet invention patent could be worth so much money.

But judging from Francisco's expression, it seems that the price does not make him feel incredible, but he just feels that it is a bit too much, which means that Chen Mingluo's valuation should be relatively normal.

No wonder it is said that science and technology are the primary productive forces, but seeing is true. A second-year high school student can produce a patented technology that can cost millions of dollars. If this is said, many people will be surprised to hear it.

However, the people from the Provincial Foreign Affairs Office accompanied the Spaniards to negotiate, so naturally people could not ignore their existence. So a director who led the team made a statement, "One million US dollars is a bit too much. Based on the principle of mutual benefit, can both parties give in to each other and take an intermediate value?"

He made such a good statement. After all, 500,000 US dollars is about 5 million RMB, which is enough for many people to work hard for several lifetimes. You should know that those who can get a monthly salary of 1,000 yuan in the provincial capital can be considered middle-income class.

Five million yuan is necessary to make a middle-income employee of a provincial capital struggle for four hundred years!

With such a huge profit, it’s time to be content!

Even at this moment, many people are beginning to be jealous of Chen Mingluo's luck. How could he create an invention that interests foreigners and are willing to spend money to buy? How many inventors have not achieved this step even though they have worked hard to achieve this!

Who knew that Chen Mingluo heard them, but just smiled slightly, shook his head and sighed, "One million US dollars?! You guessed wrong! Haha, you underestimated my courage too much. I mean ten million US dollars!"

"Oh, God!" Everyone in the seat was shocked.

Whether it was the Spanish or the Chinese present, including Shui Rou, everyone stared at Chen Mingluo with wide eyes, as if he was already crazy.

Francisco's heart was bleeding! He never expected that the boy of the other party had such a strong appetite and asked for a patent transfer fee of 10 million US dollars!

You know, even according to the international general algorithm, the board of directors has only given a maximum limit of 6.5 million US dollars, 10 million?! This is simply a style that can eat people without spitting out bones!

"Impossible!" Francisco Jodi stood up suddenly and said angrily that he had been insulted. Even if Lotong Company attaches importance to intellectual property rights, it is impossible for others to blackmail it!

The Spanish immediately left the seat angrily like a proud rooster, muttering that this was an insult to international friends, and all the consequences caused by this should be borne by Chen Mingluo. If Letong Company cannot land in Xiling Province because of this, then he will only feel very regretful.

"Lotto cannot accept such conditions, and the great Spaniards cannot withstand open blackmail!" said Francisco.

Regardless of the dissuasion of the officials of the Provincial Foreign Affairs Office, the group angrily expressed their desire to leave Mingyang City and take a chartered flight back to Spain.

The officials of the Provincial Foreign Affairs Office immediately sat down. This time, they accompanied the Spaniards to Mingyang, but in fact they wanted to keep the other party's factory in Xiling Province. Otherwise, who would have time to accompany them to see their faces?

Secretary Sang is also very concerned about this matter. If Chen Mingluo is unwilling to sell his patents, how should he explain it to Secretary Sang after he goes back? Wouldn't he admit that his ability to do things is very poor?

Therefore, the director of the Provincial Foreign Affairs Office harshly told the local Mingyang officials who accompanied him, "What are you doing? Why don't you cooperate with the provincial work at all?" As landlords, you have to let the patent holders make some concessions? Look how sincere the Spanish are? 500,000 US dollars is very sincere. Your lion opens his mouth and asks for a price all over the sky. Doesn't it seem that our Chinese tastes have all been stolen into the stinky smell of money?"

The local officials in Mingyang are also very embarrassed, but others don’t know, how could they not know who Chen Mingluo is? That is the young man of Secretary-General Chen Tongda and Mayor Xiao Mingxue are very fond of. Why should he bargain with others?

If Mayor Xiao asked about this, he would have to ask, "Who are you talking to?"

It was messy here. Chen Mingluo saw it and naturally knew that everyone was having a mentality. So he said to Francesco and his group, "I'm not afraid to tell you that although Japan's Dongtao Company has not taken action yet, Germany's Gaoyu Company has already intended to bid 5 million US dollars to buy my patent, and it is a one-time payment."

Then he smiled indifferently and said, "International competition is very fierce! If you don't want to enter this field, then forget it. Anyway, Letong has never been the boss in this industry. However, if you want to invest in and build a factory, then you will find the wrong person. What's your business? If you don't sell the patents to Spanish, you can also sell them to Germans, Americans, and Japanese. They are all very generous customers!"

Francisco was about to walk out of the door, but after hearing Chen Mingluo's words, he stopped immediately and sat back at the negotiating table in shame. His arrogance was not as arrogant as before.

Francisco naturally cannot verify the fact that Chen Mingluo's words are half true and half false. However, judging by Chen Mingluo as a sophomore in mainland China, he has already mentioned the names of German Gaoyu Company and Japanese Dongtao Company, and said that German Gaoyu Company plans to bid for $5 million to purchase a patent, which makes Francisco worry.

Germany's industry strength is much stronger than Letong, but it is slightly inferior to Japan's Dongtao Company. Judging from the Germans' competitive spirit, it is very likely to overwhelm the Japanese as the leader in the industry through new patent advantages.

Francisco understood that since the board of directors of Letong Company can objectively make an estimate of 6.5 million US dollars, then Chen Mingluo's invention must be worth this amount. In contrast, Chen Mingluo's bid for 5 million US dollars by German high-domain companies is more reasonable.

As for Chen Mingluo himself, it is reasonable to hope that his patented technology can be sold at a high price.

From this point of view, it is really possible that Chen Mingluo said five million US dollars.

After figuring this out, Francesco suddenly felt very tricky.

This time, Letong Company sent him to China to discuss this matter. The purpose of holding was only one. Money is not a problem, but within the limit given by the board of directors, you must obtain this patent, because it is related to Letong Company's policy trend in the next five or even ten years and its advantages in the industry's leading position.

In other words, Letong's first priority is to acquire Chen Mingliang's patent, followed by price. As for the little calculations in Francesco's own belly, it is not considered by the board of directors.

Even though the Germans were a little hesitant about patent acquisition, there was also a big tycoon, Japan Dongtao Company.

Francisco has long experienced the despicable behavior of his Japanese colleagues. If they were allowed to take the lead, they would really have nothing to do. They would definitely pay a high price to buy Chen Mingluo's invention patents to cut off their peers' similar directions.

No matter from any aspect, I don’t stand on the side where I take the initiative!

After the Spaniard figured out this, he suddenly felt a little discouraged. It seemed that the challenges he was facing were still very severe, and the scenarios he had predicted before seemed to be impossible to achieve.

"Five million US dollars is a bit too much. Germans sometimes talk big. You can't trust a group of Nazis-" Francisco said, but he didn't believe much persuasiveness.

After hearing his words, Chen Mingluo smiled, making Francisco look embarrassed. In fact, during World War II, the Spanish were once an important part of the fascist camp. During the dictatorship of General Franco, even the Spanish king lived in his shadow.

"Ten million US dollars are really not much. I am not the kind of person who asks for a lot of money." Chen Mingluo sighed.

Shui Rou wore a very formal professional suit, with stockings and boots under her skirt. The weather is a bit cold after all. Although there is air conditioning in the house to keep warm, after staying for a long time, she always feels a little numb, so she interlaced her legs and replaced them for a while, soothing a little unblocked blood.

She listened to the dialogue between Chen Mingluo and the Spanish who were constantly interpreting it in simultaneously, and then she understood that Chen Mingluo was a natural businessman, a conspirator who ate people and did not spit out his bones.

Under Chen Mingluo's step-by-step pressure, Francesco can be said to be defeated step by step, and the bottom line has been repeatedly lost, his face has become greener and his eyebrows have become even more twisted.

After hearing that Francisco had already agreed to the price of 6 million US dollars, Shui Rou was shocked.

Even according to the official foreign exchange price, this is a huge wealth of nearly 50 million yuan. I really didn't expect that Chen Mingluo's invention patent could be worth so much money.

At this time, the people from the Provincial Foreign Affairs Office were already stupid and dared not interrupt again. They never expected that the small invention, which was originally worth hundreds of thousands of yuan, could be worth a sky-high price for the Spaniards.
