Chapter 1879 Everyone Feels They Have Gained

Thinking of this, Yang Xiaotao decided to come clean. This thing had to be done, but he didn't have to do it with them.

"Mr. Wang, we have talked so much, but now we can't agree on this."

"Then let's be frank. There must be a reason why you came to our machinery factory. Otherwise, you can just do it yourself, right?"

Mr. Wang smacked his lips and suddenly felt that he had said so much that it seemed as if he really wanted to make this calculator.

In fact, all the energy of the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building was focused on giant computers. They didn't have the personnel, thoughts or energy to work on calculators.

I just talked so much nonsense that I almost believed it myself.

But this also shows from the side that Yang Xiaotao is really something.

It would be shocking to know that a machinery factory is developing computers.

Old Wang quickly adjusted his mindset, and then he heard Yang Xiaotao continue, "Commander, I estimate that it will cost a lot to start this project, so don't say those lies. It would be a blessing if this thing can be made in one or two years. It may take ten or eight years to achieve a breakthrough."

"The cost is not a small amount. If you think it can be done easily, you would have done it yourself a long time ago and would not have to ask us..."

"Of course, I don't mean to say that you can't do it, don't get me wrong."

"I'm just saying that I'm also looking for partners. To be honest, Mr. Xia has already helped us find talent at the university."

Yang Xiaotao spoke very seriously, and his serious tone made Mr. Wang so nervous that he broke out in a cold sweat.

As Yang Xiaotao said, it will take ten to eight years to make this calculator, and the investment is unaffordable.

Besides, his original intention was funding.

Cooperating with Yang Xiaotao is a win-win situation.

Otherwise, if Yang Xiaotao finds other people to cooperate with, where will he get the funds?
No offense!

"Okay, you guys will be in control."

Mr. Wang agreed, and Yang Xiaotao smiled, "That's good!"

"However, all the funds for this research must be paid by your machinery factory."

Mr. Wang continued to speak, and his tone was very serious.

"no problem!"

Yang Xiaotao agreed immediately.

In fact, even if Mr. Wang didn't say it, Yang Xiaotao also understood that it was probably unknown where the research funds would be used in the end.

But again, as long as it can meet the research needs, he doesn't care about these.

Besides, although Mr. Wang is a bit thick-skinned, he has a good heart.

On the other side, Mr. Wang immediately smiled until his teeth showed, and he kept clapping his hands on the table and said excitedly, "Okay, let's talk about it. One hundred thousand a month should be no problem, right?"

"One hundred thousand? Mr. Wang, you think too highly of me. The machinery factory is not owned by me alone. We also have Secretary Liu and Director Yang. Our machinery factory is huge, and we will soon have Yanzhou as well."

Yang Xiaotao immediately started crying poor.

These days, a worker's salary is less than a hundred yuan. There are so many workers in the machinery factory, but most of them are middle and senior workers, with an average salary of just over fifty yuan. The entire factory has 10,000 people, so the salary is only five hundred thousand. One-tenth of the salary will be gone in one go, which is too cruel.

You have to bargain.

"Don't give me that. I won't even mention the pressure cookers and rice cookers we had before. Just look at the armored vehicles and air conditioners we have now. I think the assets your machinery factory has accumulated are more than our Seventh Ministry of Machine Building."

"Also, the money you just got this time is 500,000. And there is another 500,000 waiting for you, and there will be more later."

"It must be at least a hundred thousand a month. It's so difficult to ask you to take out one tenth of it."

The more Mr. Wang calculated, the more uncomfortable he felt.

This machinery factory is so weird, the things it makes are so damn valuable.

Oh, and I forgot to include a pharmaceutical factory in this count.

One million is definitely too little.

No wonder this guy wants to set up an internal audit system. He probably saw some loopholes and wants to fill them.

This guy is really smart.

As Wang Lao was thinking about this, Yang Xiaotao immediately became bitter, "Commander, you have been deceived."

"What do you mean?"

"This five hundred thousand is our money."

"I know, it's the same."

"It's different!"

Yang Xiaotao then told Wang about the kickback he had promised to give Ruan Wenzhe. When he heard that he had to pay 100,000 Alliance coins from the machinery factory's 500,000, Wang almost bit his tongue.

"Commander, now you know, the actual amount of money that came to our machinery factory was only 200,000 yuan."

"That's all. We still need to spend money on expanding production, building factories, research, and so on. I don't have much left."

After hearing this, Mr. Wang came to his senses.

This, this was definitely done on purpose by Lao Chen.

Moreover, it is very likely to dispel the "ulterior motives" of these people.

"Then how much can you give?"

When Mr. Wang learned that this was Mr. Chen's intention, his expectations began to lower.

"I know this is a very expensive thing, so we can give 20,000 yuan a month as funding."

"No, twenty thousand is not enough. Our machines are not even worth that much. There are also labor costs for operation."

"No, if you add a little, it will be at least 80,000."

Yang Xiaotao coughed lightly and then said, "Mr. Wang, since this is the research department of our machinery factory, we should treat them equally."

"What do you mean?"

"As you know, our main factory's R&D department and the United Star Research Institute have each received 50,000 yuan in research funding this time."

"Since they are all the same, let's just give 50,000. This will save us from giving too much and causing dissatisfaction among others."

"what do you think?"

Old Wang clicked his tongue twice. He didn't expect that the machinery factory would invest so much in the research institute.

Fifty thousand for one research institute. He knew that there were more than just these two in the machinery factory. There was also an ordnance research institute. He heard that the infrared night vision device that was developed a while ago was made by the ordnance institute. They must have made a lot of money.

I didn’t say anything this time, I guess I gave more.

Damn, this guy is so rich.

"Okay, fifty thousand then."

Mr. Wang felt that it was pointless to continue talking, so it was better to quit while he was ahead.

If used frugally, the 50,000 yuan will be enough for Han Sanfeng and his team's research.

Besides, if I encounter some difficulties in the future that need to be overcome, I don’t believe that Yang Xiaotao will not pay for it.

As for the research on calculators, it is of course included in it. "Then let me come to your place later and we will sign the contract plan and everything."

"So our computer working group is complete."

"Okay, come on, remember to bring money, otherwise I'm afraid you won't be able to get in."

Mr. Wang joked, and Yang Xiaotao smiled, "It feels like going to buy groceries."

"Haha, you're the first one to come to our place to buy groceries. I'll give you two big cigars. Do you want them?"

"Yes, I'll buy it and hang it at the door to see who dares to poke it."

"Screw you."

After hanging up the phone, Mr. Wang jumped twice in the office, then rushed out excitedly to find Mr. Qian to report the good news.

Although we didn’t reach the goal of 100,000, 50,000 is not a small number.

And this happens every month.

"Old Qian, come on, what do you think of this number? Is it impressive?"

As soon as he entered the door, Mr. Wang stretched out five fingers. Mr. Qian was looking through the information about rockets, then he looked up and saw a hand stretched out in front of him.

"What do you mean? Five hundred thousand?"

Mr. Wang rolled his eyes and said, "You are even more cruel than me."

Mr. Qian smiled and said, "That's fifty thousand?"

"Well, this kid is very cunning and never suffers any loss. In the end, I was the better one and finally got it."

Old Wang said this with great pride, then sat aside and took a sip of cold water from Old Qian's jar, "Let me tell you, this matter has many twists and turns."

As Mr. Wang explained, Mr. Qian initially treated it as a story, but by the end, he instinctively realized that something was wrong.

However, there is no evidence to prove this feeling. I just simply feel that computers will be an important direction for national development in the future.

If you give the ownership to the other party, you might regret it.

But there was no evidence, and he was not clear about the prospects of computers, so he did not expose it and continued to listen to Mr. Wang's story.

"He will be here soon. Once the cooperation is signed, we will have sufficient funds. Then your solid fuel will not be a problem."

After hearing this, Mr. Qian threw away his worries and focused on the situation in front of him.

"I'm not just thinking about solid fuels now, you see"

Mr. Qian pushed the materials on the table to this side. Mr. Wang stood up and took a look. Then he frowned and said, "Is this a new type of rocket?"

"No, it's a missile!"

"Missile? There's something wrong with this engine."

Qian Lao smiled and said, "I want to add a turbojet engine to give the missile a longer range!"

"Turbojet engine? Isn't that what the third brother and his team are researching? You, you don't want to research it too, do you?"

Old Wang was shocked. This thing had caused so much trouble to the Third Ministry of Machine Building and the Logistics Department that they were almost unable to make ends meet. Their Seventh Ministry of Machine Building had to take this as a warning.

"I'm just researching it. Besides, this thing can be made by them. There's no need for us to research it."

"If you say that, I feel relieved."

Wang Lao sat back on the stool again. "At worst, we can wait until they make it and try it out. If it works well, we'll give it a try."

Mr. Qian nodded after hearing this.

The two talked for a while, and Old Wang still had to tell Han Sanfeng not to reveal the truth or say the wrong thing when Yang Xiaotao came.

On the other side, in the machinery factory office, Yang Xiaotao also stood up from his seat after hanging up the phone, and waved his fists twice in the office to relieve his inner excitement.

With the cooperation concluded, he felt that he had made a profit.

Of course, Mr. Wang must also feel that he has made a profit.

The two people have different goals, so they both feel that they have made a profit, which can be considered a win-win situation.

He signed the cooperation agreement in the office, and then went out to Liu Huaimin.

In theory, this is his responsibility as chief designer, and he can make the final decision in his name.

But as a member of the machinery factory, and having fought side by side and struggled together all the way, he felt it necessary to say something to Liu Huaimin.

It would be best to get Liu Huaimin's support.

Then Yang Youning will definitely support it.

When I report to my superiors later, I can use the name of the machinery factory.

"Old Liu, let me tell you something."

Yang Xiaotao sat at his desk and watched Liu Huaimin who was busy working. The other party raised his head and gestured to listen, so Yang Xiaotao explained the situation.

"That's it? You can handle it yourself."

Unexpectedly, Liu Huaimin didn't care much about this matter.

This made Yang Xiaotao a little puzzled. This was 50,000 yuan, and this was a project.

How come you are so calm?

"Any thing else?"

Seeing Yang Xiaotao in a daze, Liu Huaimin looked up and asked.

"Oh, it's okay. I'll go to the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building to make the decision later."

"Well, be careful on the road."

"Oh."

Yang Xiaotao agreed and left the office.

Standing in the corridor, thinking of Liu Huaimin's attitude, Yang Xiaotao was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses.

Then he started laughing to himself.

"Why think so much? Just do what you need to do."

In the room, Liu Huaimin saw Yang Xiaotao leave, so he just stopped writing and then continued working.

In his opinion, it's just a project.

Doesn’t Yang Xiaotao have enough projects?
As for the 50,000 yuan, the money spent on one of this guy’s aircraft engines is more than that.

That is to say, the steel mills and alloys are all supplied internally. If it were any other factory, the number would have exceeded this long ago.

Not to mention night vision goggles and artillery aiming, which are all expensive stuff.

As for this calculator, let him tinker with it if he wants.

Anyway, this is not the first or second time we have cooperated with the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building. Since his father-in-law is there, we have to give him some face.

Liu Huaimin consciously sorted out the relationship context, then put the matter aside and continued to review and approve documents.

We have added a lot of staff recently, and there are also matters concerning several branch factories, so some staff needs to be increased as well. All of them need to be dealt with urgently.
