Chapter 425 Academicians as Lobbyists
It is easy to find out who is trying to intercept. Zhang Haonan does not need to check. He is in Beijing and there is a high probability that the other party will contact him.
With his current strength, he dares to ignore his tricks. He will go back to Jiankang or Gusu to call the police and then cross the province.
He comforted Wang Aihong without saying anything final. He said that he could settle the hops planting in Xuecheng, mainly because it is very likely that the other party will give a very good exchange condition.
If he agrees, it will hurt Wang Aihong's heart a little.
He knows very well that Wang Aihong is very enthusiastic about his hometown, so he naturally does not want to disappoint him.
After letting Wang Aihong stop the work at hand, he gave him a few days off. It is also good to take his wife to play in Beijing.
As for the child, his old mother will take care of him in Shacheng, so it is not a big problem.
On September 9, Zhang Haonan took people from "Shacheng Food" and "Daqiao Food" to participate in a commemorative event, because the big guys from Liangjiang Province would hold a small meeting to discuss the Hyundai LCD panel production line the next day. So after the commemorative event ended in the day, the accompanying secretary reported to him in the afternoon that a ballistics expert from Jiankang Polytechnic had invited him to dinner.
"Hmm? Are you sure it's a ballistics expert from Jiankang Polytechnic?"
"I've confirmed the ID, yes."
"Strange..."
Zhang Haonan was full of questions, so he called An Duxiu. Upon hearing this, "Master Master" said that this was also a person of the right path, a master of the "Mahayana period".
Yes, he was also an academician...
As a fellow junior, Zhang Haonan asked the Second Guesthouse of the State Council to prepare a richer dinner. Although he didn't know why Academician Yang from Jiankang Polytechnic wanted to see him, it was definitely not to talk about ballistics.
Could it be that he was asked to sell multi-functional rockets somewhere?
But this is impossible. "Longdun Security" has a project in preparation that is indeed related to rockets, but the business line is not Jiankang Polytechnic, nor is it Songjiang Jiaotong University, where the head coach of the 800,000 Imperial Army is, but Blackwater Engineering, a school in the northeast.
The expert group is all from the northeast. If "Longdun Security" starts the business, it will give the blank employment contract to the members of the expert group to sign.
Jiankang Polytechnic knows about this, but Jiankang Polytechnic is not envious, because there are profits from armored vehicles and light weapons. Compared with the two, it is hard to say whether rockets or light weapons make money.
After all, "Longdun Security" is not a weapons company and does not do arms business.
The dinner time in Beijing is quite long, almost from six to nine o'clock is dinner time. When Academician Yang, a ballistics expert at Jiankang Polytechnic, arrived, Zhang Haonan and his daughter were watching the "Corgi" transformation in "Tianpeng Fighters" in the hall.
The advantage of being handsome is that there are many people watching.
Most people from Liangjiang Province who come to Beijing for meetings stay here.
Some policymakers hang out here, except in the Beijing Office, because most of the big politicians and businessmen are here.
Zhang Haonan is now a "big boss", and some people from the Beijing Office of some cities will come to create "encounters" with Zhang Haonan, including some beautiful girls with curvy figure.
But Zhang Haonan brought his daughter with him, and they were not showing him an advanced breastfeeding technique, so they had to pretend to be reserved and dignified, which made all parties very uncomfortable.
This made Boss Zhang miscalculated. If he had known not to bring his daughter, he would have come alone... Wouldn't it be so cool?
In just a few days, he met no less than three-digit beauties. Who can fuck them?
"Mr. Yang, what instructions do you have for me?"
When Academician Yang arrived at the Second Guesthouse of the Government Affairs Council, Zhang Haonan politely asked him to eat something first. They were all in the circle of Jiankang University, so Academician Yang naturally knew Zhang Haonan's temper.
Very happy that Zhang Haonan was so generous, Academician Yang smiled and said straightforwardly: "You want to invest in a hops planting base in the Northeast? I came here today to talk about this."
"Is this to pass on a message?"
Zhang Haonan was a little surprised. Let the academician be a mouthpiece... something.
"I am also willing to do this kind of thing because I get a sum of money. Another thing is related to the old comrades in the school. A former vice president, who is also the deputy leader of the political work group, is named Hua. He has a nephew who used to make liquor in Jibei Province. Now he wants to change his career and make beer. It just so happens that your investment coincides with it."
Academician Yang, with a smile on his face, spread his hands, "The original words mean this, I didn't see it with my own eyes, I can't confirm whether it is true or not."
"Donate or invest in Jiankang University of Science and Technology?"
"Five million, donate a dormitory building."
"That's okay."
Nodded, five million to pass on a message, that's fine.
Then he will get more, or "Shacheng Food" and "Daqiao Food" will get more.
Zhang Haonan was too lazy to ask about the background of this old vice president of Jiankang Polytechnic named Hua. There was no need. The business was definitely a public-to-public transaction, or a political-business behavior.
"It's good that you don't mind."
"What's there to mind? I asked you to come out and pass on the message. If I don't give you this face, the president will climb the tower crane."
"Hahaha..."
Academician Yang couldn't help but laughed immediately, just like An Duxiu.
"If you don't mind, then Hua Group will arrange a time to meet with you tomorrow. I don't know what to talk about specifically, and I won't ask."
"Okay, these are just some trivial things about bargaining. Let's eat quickly. It's in time. The state banquet chef from Northeast Ice City is on a business trip here. They are all delicious dishes."
"It seems that the rumors are not credible. I took the five million and the school said something was going to happen. When I came here, I was also very nervous."
"Well, it's hard to tell. Serious business is not that complicated. I just like to make money peacefully. If I can't do business peacefully, then I will ask everyone not to do it. It may be difficult to do a good job. It requires full cooperation. Crashing the market... that's too easy."
"..."
First, have a bowl of pigeon soup. After feeling comfortable, eat and chat. The people who accompany the table are either secretaries or assistants. Academician Yang also brings students, and the doctoral students in the research group also take the opportunity to benefit.
Some doctors are still wearing military uniforms. At first glance, they don't look like the kind that can visit abroad. Zhang Haonan gave up the idea of poaching them and just talked about some things about academic exchanges with the international community.
Because there is an idea to expand business in Europe, of course Zhang Haonan only said that it was a business need of the company, but did not say what to do. Academician Yang talked about some past events in Ostrava and Miskolc. When he was young, he had academic exchanges on material research with these two places, but the international situation at that time was much more intense than it is now.
The geopolitics of this situation may be more complicated, but the cruelty and suffering are somewhat childish. As a master of the "Mahayana period", he did not take the "evil demons" seriously and firmly stated that as long as the resources of the righteous alliance are sufficient, it is not a problem to train more young masters.
In short, it is a euphemism to say that everyone is hanging out in Jiankang, and Boss Zhang is also a disciple of the righteous sect. If he has the strength, he can take time to go to Jiankang University of Science and Technology...
The products of this sect are still quite powerful, and the various magic equipment emphasizes a large power and a long range.
Zhang Haonan feels that these masters have the same routine, and they want to beg for alms when they see the opportunity.
Although it was just a casual chat at the dinner table, it can be seen that Academician Yang is very familiar with the former Soviet republics, especially the academic channels of countries like Belarussia, which he can almost say like the back of his hand.
This kind of professional quality reminded Zhang Haonan of Wei Gang.
The bald old man can almost speak a lot of industrial and agricultural data in the Yangtze River Delta region. For example, he can remember the per capita housing area in rural areas. It is a great and strong personal ability.
"Mr. Yang, 'Zijin Technology' Jiankang Polytechnic also has patent fees, which are not small. It is much better than the Meteorological College."
"It has to be divided with Jiankang Industry."
"..."
Sure enough, there is still a difference in closeness between people from the same sect.
Academician Yang wants to do a unique business. If he can collect patent fees from laboratories in more than two colleges like Liangjiang University of Technology, wouldn't it be great?
In fact, Jiankang Institute of Technology's requirements for scientific research transformation are not for civilian use, but are basically related to "nuclear high-tech basic research". The transformation of military achievements sometimes depends on face. For example, if the military does not like the results of some self-funded research, the Ministry of National Defense will not pay for it.
National defense-related colleges and universities are similar. There is money only when there are tasks, and if there are no tasks, you have to find a way.
The so-called "follow-up research" in the early years was actually empty talk. The actual reproduction experiments could not be done because there was no money.
Academicians who have suffered from the "scientific winter" are all academicians who have not been promoted for special reasons. They have a strong obsession with how to make money during the period of academician committee members.
Of course, this money is not for themselves, but for similar research projects. As presidents or deans, they may also have to raise money for other areas of the school.
Therefore, this can be regarded as a verification standard for the water content of an academician. If the money is made for himself, or even invested in a project or an unrelated company, then the water content is basically not small, and it is likely that the disciples and grandchildren have used money to make it.
If the money-making becomes a big tree, providing shelter for researchers in similar related fields, then sometimes the grassroots researchers actually wish that such big guys can make more money for themselves.
The reason for hoping that the big guys can make some money for themselves is that if the big guys have money, the experimental funds will be more flexible, and they will not have to bark at the management office every time for a little money.
Ten years later, a boring and realistic topic among many young graduate students is whether they have followed the right "boss". If they follow the right one, everything will go smoothly, but if they follow the wrong one, graduation will be delayed... or even not graduate.
The several doctors brought by Academician Yang also have projects on hand, all kinds of them. Although he is a ballistics scientist, it is okay to sell software instead of hardware.
Of course, selling ballistics-related software is definitely not okay, which is enough to get him shot dozens of times. However, not all of the doctoral students he supervises are in ballistics, there are also control systems, unmanned submarines, underwater robots, drones, high-altitude airships, etc. In short, there are many strange things, more or less.
Zhang Haonan is not interested in other things, but he is very interested in drones.
"Mr. Yang, are you saying that this senior is working on drones?"
"He is a graduate student working on flight control software, and then there is a two-in-one project, the strike system and the reconnaissance system have to be done together, so he was transferred to Jiankang University of Science and Technology. He was originally a graduate student at Jiankang Aerospace."
"Will there be any leaks?"
"There won't be any, there are regulations, and they will be reviewed. What? Do you really have a project?"
"I really do."
Not to brag, Zhang Haonan explained, "I actually contracted some farmland last year and made a little profit from summer grain, but it was based on quantity. If you want to make more, you have to contract more farmland. If you contract more , applying pesticides is very labor-intensive and expensive.”
"Is it related to drones?"
"I'm thinking about whether we can design a larger drone that can hold about 100 kilograms of pesticides. In this way, it would save more money to spray pesticides with a drone. If there are several thousand acres of land, we can use a pesticide sprayer. It already saves money compared to manpower, drones should save more money, right?”
"But the use of airspace requires approval from the Air Force."
"Model aircraft, what I want is a model aircraft, not a drone, one controlled by someone."
"..."
Boss Zhang has a very sharp mind and responds quickly, "The model aircraft I want is slightly larger, has more functions than a small aircraft, and has a larger bomb load... and a more substantial drug load. This should save a lot of money." Bar?"
"Are you talking about Vera Technology, a subsidiary of Scott Electronics? It should be a technology application two years ago, in the form of a rotorcraft. But it should be for surveying and mapping, not for spraying pesticides. Nowadays, low-speed propeller aircraft are still used in agriculture. Save money."
"If Liangjiang Province wants to hire pesticide sprayers, they need to apply in advance, which is very troublesome. Some planes have to depart from the Northeast and fly to several provinces to spray pesticides. It is really unnecessary."
In fact, there are also planes in Yandu and Guangling, but it is a pity that they cannot be used because Zhang Haonan's one or two thousand acres of land is too small.
So if you can have a larger drone or remote-controlled aircraft, you can do it once and for all. Hang a row of nozzles under the drone and spray every acre. It will only take about ten seconds, and it will last for a minute.
If you were to apply pesticides by yourself, you would be able to spray pesticides with a motor, and you would not be able to spray them in minutes.
It may be a loss in one or two years, but as long as you can produce a batch of this thing, you will make a profit in ten or twenty years.
In the long run, the more land you cultivate, the more money you will save.
Once in and out, they are also big grain growers, and Zhang Haonan's profit is at least ten to twenty points more.
Judging from the current level, the amount is still one hundred thousand or two hundred thousand.
If you give each of your wives a bracelet, you may still have a lot of food money left over.
"Is this market prospect... big?"
Academician Yang knew that this fellow junior from Liangjiang Industry was known as the "wealth-spreading boy". He heard that any project he handled would be profitable.
Making a million dollars is considered a loss.
"It should be pretty big, right? What if farmers use drones to spray pesticides on their fields in the future?"
"..."
"If that doesn't work, I will set up an agricultural aircraft company specifically. The forms of cooperation can be diversified. If you are willing to transfer the technology, transfer it. If you are willing to sell it, sell it. If you are willing to share the shares, just share the shares. The price is easy to negotiate."
"..."
This made Academician Yang confused. He always felt that both were good and he might make less money.
But hearing Zhang Haonan speak so sincerely, I felt a little embarrassed. My fellow juniors were so polite, so why should I be petty?
On the other hand, the doctor who was sitting with him finished a mouthful of golden shrimp balls and his eyes lit up while eating yellow croaker soup: "If you have three or four hundred thousand, I think that's about it."
"Ahem."
Academician Yang coughed lightly and glanced at the unlucky child, thinking that you are already a grown man, why are you so restless while studying for a Ph.D.?
The person in front of you who is treating guests to dinner is the living God of Wealth. You only asked for three or four hundred thousand, and your appetite is too small.
Think about that handsome Lingnan boy Ye Guodong. He now has an annual salary of 200,000 yuan. The situation is opening up, disciples.
Zhang Haonan also smiled when he saw this. He first asked the waiter to prepare a few more delicious dishes, and then told Academician Yang about his needs, which was basically the pesticide spraying project.
Of course, if you go abroad, you may need surveying and mapping. How to install equipment depends on whether you can leave modification design redundancy for the aircraft, or it can be directly modularized.
In short, it won't be a one-time deal, because Alexey told him that there are even bigger oligarchs above the Pavlov family, who have planted a lot of soybeans in Khazstan. Zhang Haonan and the Pavlov family A joint venture will be negotiated in December. Whether or not to introduce respective state-owned assets depends on the situation.
But the Sastan officials made it easy, the money was in place, and the green light was always on.
The trouble lies with the people. Alexey hopes that Zhang Haonan will set up one or two NGOs, which can be regarded as a "tradition" in Khasaistan.
After all, how exaggerated is this scene in Sastan?
I met six people on the street, one of whom was a member of a foreign NGO.
Boss Zhang needs to carry out some degree of "localization" transformation in order to survive in his market.
Environmental protection organizations, animal protection organizations, earth defense organizations, traditional culture protection organizations, Central Asian integration organizations, Cyrillic writing defense organizations, historical organizations...
All kinds of strange NGOs on the earth, even pure cult development organizations, can be found here, all kinds of strange and strange.
But as long as it is done and someone takes their own money, civil affairs will be easy to talk about. For example, if a women's rights organization holds an event and collectively exposes breasts in the square, as long as they are willing to add money, it will not be a problem.
You can even show your breasts, let alone grow soybeans?
So since growing soybeans is not a problem, what remains is how to increase production.
So when Zhang Haonan mentioned going abroad, it was really not nonsense, it was really very possible.
A matter of ten months at most.
After talking like this, Academician Yang immediately became interested, but after a quick calculation, he felt that he couldn't sell a few aircraft, so he had to sell technology to make more money faster.
Zhang Haonan is not interested in the broader civilian market for drones. He just wants to spread pesticides quickly and conveniently. It doesn't matter whether he has money or not. If he really wants to make money quickly, he can just put a vest on the market at "Shacheng Food".
Moreover, "Zijin Technology" can also be put on the market, and it is estimated that it will be faster to install. After all, this thing is high-tech, and the electric leeks must be more efficient.
"Then why don't you sign your intention early?"
Academician Yang thought that he couldn't put it off because the night was long and he had many dreams.
This capital...and the capital's aerospace industry. If the news leaks out, who knows if someone will get there first.
Judging from Zhang Haonan's attitude, he should be able to offer three to four hundred thousand without even frowning.
"It's okay. It doesn't matter if I go back to Jiankang or stay here in the capital. We are all our own people. I am absolutely sincere in my bid. The money will not go to outsiders."
As he spoke, Boss Zhang opened a glass of coconut water and filled a glass for his daughter who was sitting in the baby chair next to him. After the two toasted, he raised a glass with Academician Yang and others.
"I think it's better to just stay in the capital. In a few days, when you are done with your work, you can sign a letter of intent first. I will also go to the National Defense Science and Technology Institute to report in. After the review, I will start investing in research and development as soon as possible when I return to Jiankang. Work."
"Okay, I can do it."
Upon hearing this, several doctors suddenly felt that the lobster meat in their mouths became more fragrant, and then they all talked about other projects, including medium-range ballistic missiles. However, Boss Zhang's company was too small and it was useless for this thing, so they gave up... …
