Fang Zhenguo and several staff officers from the headquarters met with Ralph Cook's White Eagle representatives for several weeks.
"Dear Mr. Fang, I think we should sit down and talk about patent licensing." Ralph Cook showed a brotherly friendly smile.
On the way here by the extended Lincoln, he has received accurate information from the White Eagle Intelligence Bureau that the Eastern Naval Academy of Sciences did use a more advanced semiconductor technology, making the miniaturization of the solar furnace completed on schedule.
When he was in the car, he repeatedly asked the agents of the Intelligence Bureau to confirm the truth of the news, and after receiving a positive answer, he had to adopt such a friendly attitude.
He doesn't want to change his attitude.
If the miniaturization of the solar furnace is completed, it means that the patents in his hand are all scraps.
Not only that, because there is no authorized patent, you can't get the qualification for ordering the solar furnace. This result is the worst.
Before Ralph Cook led the team, the White Eagle Congress gave him a few goals.
The first goal is to invest technology in the solar furnace R&D project.
If this goal can be achieved, then the White Eagle Nation will have controllable nuclear fusion technology.
Mastering this technology means that the White Eagle can directly transform existing nuclear-powered motherships, submarines and other war weapons, and can directly obtain a nuclear fusion-powered fleet.
If the first goal cannot be achieved, the White Eagle Congress has also arranged a less satisfactory goal, which is to buy a solar furnace and then obtain the technology in it through dismantling.
The White Eagle Congress is very confident. With its own scientific and technological strength, it is completely confident to master the technology of the solar furnace through disassembly.
Therefore, when Ralph Cook learned that the Eastern Naval Academy was about to complete the miniaturization of the solar furnace, he found that the first goal could not be achieved, so he hurried over to fight for the second goal given by Congress.
Before coming over, he also asked his assistant to find the patent license contract that was torn in half three days ago, but it was dumped into the trash can long ago.
The representatives of both sides meet.
Fang Zhenguo smiled and shook hands with him, and said, "Don't worry, please sit down first."
Ralph Cook couldn't sit still, and said again: "Mr. Fang, I think we should work more efficiently and let's talk about patent licensing."
Fang Zhenguo kept a polite smile, raised his left hand, looked at the watch on his wrist, and said, "It has been 3 days and 58 points since the last time we met. Therefore, my promise three days ago has lost its validity. Not signing it is not a dishonest."
"No, no...Mr. Fang, you need our country's patented technology so that you can complete the research and development of the solar furnace faster." Ralph Cook began to lobby.
"Mr. Cook, I am very sorry. I am not responsible for the research and development work, so I don't know what technology to use is better. However, according to the information given to me by the Academy of Military Sciences, we no longer need your country's patent authorization. "Fang Zhenguo spread his hands and smiled, smiling very friendly, like a spring breeze.
However, Ralph Cook felt this smile icy.
He forced to remain calm and continued to swim and said: "As far as I know, you find those alternative technologies, all of which have generational differences. Only our technology can solve these problems perfectly."
Fang Zhenguo nodded and said: "I heard from Chinese scientists that this problem does exist. However, if you don't care about power consumption, you can achieve the desired performance by making the parts larger.
"It seems that the volume of the re-modified solar furnace is 5% larger than the original plan? I am not sure about the data. Anyway, I heard from the R&D team that it has no effect on the solar furnace, but only consumes a few kilowatt-hours of electricity per hour. Anyway, the solar furnaces are all Once it's done, the difference of a few kilowatt-hours can be ignored."
Ralph Cook’s face became even more ugly. He took a deep breath and continued: "Okay, don’t perform anymore. I know you need our country’s patented technology. Now you can talk about patent licensing, as long as you give me what is satisfactory. price."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Cook, the order I got does not include the purchase of semiconductor-related patents with your country, so you should think too much." Fang Zhenguo spread his hands again.
Ralph Cook took a deep breath, leaned back in his chair, and said in a deep voice, "You have to think carefully. This is your last chance to get the most advanced semiconductor technology."
Fang Zhenguo spread his hands and said, "I'm sorry, if it was three days ago, I would indeed purchase your country's semiconductor-related patent licenses. I don't really need it now.
"The reason, I can't disclose to you too much. However, according to my experience, as long as it is something that our country can make, it will become the price of cabbage. This is good news for consumers, but for your country's For companies, this is not necessarily good news.
"I suggest that companies in your country should not have the idea of making huge profits and be mentally prepared to sell related products at a discount."
Ralph Cook was so angry that he looked very ugly, but he was forced to remain calm, and said: "Technology accumulation is not that simple. You need advanced semiconductor technology but not just the solar furnace project. You want to buy these. The patent is authorized, admit it."
"Why don't you tell me what you want." Fang Zhenguo didn't respond to his words, but instead threw a question back.
"It's very simple. Our country needs to buy solar furnaces, and it must be the first solar furnace sold." Ralph Cook made this request.
Fang Zhenguo did not immediately refuse, but said, "Are you sure you want to buy?"
"Yes, I'm sure to buy." Ralph Cook replied very simply.
Before he came over, he had already established a minimum target with the Congress on the phone.
"That's very expensive."
Fang Zhenguo looked very relaxed and content.
At this moment, he finally understood what it was like to master absolute technological strength.
At this point in time, controllable nuclear fusion technology is the most powerful technological force, and no technology can compare with this technology.
Therefore, the current solar furnace is the pinnacle technology product of the current stage of technological civilization.
Moreover, only Huaxia can manufacture solar furnaces.
Therefore, what Huaxia says is what it wants, and it can offer whatever price it wants. .
"Make a price." Ralph Cook took a deep breath, knowing that he would definitely be slaughtered this time, but he could only endure it.
As long as you get the solar furnace and obtain controllable nuclear fusion technology from it, the White Eagle Nation can still return to its peak, sitting in the position of the world hegemon, and no one can shake it.
Only by maintaining the status of world hegemon, the price paid now can be doubled back in the future.
