When I am reborn, I just want to be a top student

Chapter 296 Cooperation Plan, Parting on Unpleasant Ground
After hearing about the progress in the laboratory of Galaxy Technology Company, Xu Songyao completely understood Wang Donglai's ideas and understood Wang Donglai's confidence.

In addition, according to his and Wang Donglai's previous analysis, the Massachusetts Institute of Materials did not issue a statement early or late, but just after Wang Donglai published the paper, they said that they had developed materials and solved the "shuttle effect". This is really strange.

It is not necessarily that Professor Christopher's team plagiarized Wang Donglai's paper ideas. It is also possible that Professor Christopher's team has made progress, but has been deliberately concealing it, wanting to wait until the problem of lithium-sulfur batteries is completely solved to maximize profits. It was only after seeing Wang Donglai publish two papers that they became anxious and feared that their results would be published before theirs, so they issued this statement.

Finally, there is another possibility, that is, Professor Christopher really solved this problem at this time, and they just happened to come across it.

However, the probability of the last possibility is not very high, and Xu Songyao is more inclined to the first two.

Only Wang Donglai knew that this statement was probably impossible.

In the past, a laboratory in the Korean country claimed that it had solved the problem of room-temperature superconductors, which shocked the global academic community. Countless people on the Internet were celebrating that a new era had arrived.

In the end, all other laboratories that worked overtime to replicate the experiment based on the paper failed, and the Korean laboratory then said that their experimental data was wrong.

Such things are not uncommon in the academic world, but many of them are not exposed on the Internet and are not well known.

Therefore, Xu Songyao was completely relieved about what happened next.

As for how Wang Donglai handles this patent, that is Wang Donglai's freedom and has nothing to do with Tang Du Jiaotong University and him.

All he could do was to provide help when Wang Donglai needed it.

However, just as Xu Songyao was about to leave, Wang Donglai stopped him.

"Uncle Xu, Mr. Wang from BYD and Mr. Zeng from CTAL will be here soon, and we still need you to take charge!"

When Xu Songyao heard Wang Donglai say this, he did not take it seriously, because he knew that it was just Wang Donglai's humble statement.

This is just a simple business cooperation and there is no difficulty at all. Wang Donglai controls the patents, and both BYD and CATL are in a position to seek cooperation, so he doesn't need to be in charge.

"Dongla, this technology is the result of your Galaxy Technology Laboratory and has nothing to do with the school. If I stay here as the principal, it will easily give the outside world a misunderstanding and will be bad for your company's image."

"Besides, this is a business cooperation, I can't help you with anything, and it involves business secrets, so I'd better not get involved."

Xu Songyao clearly distinguished his own identity and had a general idea of ​​how Tang Du Jiaoda and Wang Donglai got along.

That is to fully support Wang Donglai academically, give him the greatest support, as well as the most relaxed research environment, and provide full support in all aspects.

As for business matters, they are clearly divided and nothing can be left that could cause problems.

For example, patent ownership!

In fact, Xu Songyao also knew that within the school, many people felt that since Wang Donglai had made so much money and many patents were completed at the school, the school should also have a share of the patents, or at least get some of the money.

Xu Songyao emphasized these claims many times in meetings before they were suppressed.

That's why I said this to Wang Donglai at this time.

Wang Donglai could understand Xu Songyao's thoughts and agreed with his approach. However, he called Xu Songyao this time because his next plan was related to Tangdu Jiaotong University and he needed Xu Songyao's presence.

"Uncle Xu, this is an idea of ​​mine, take a look!"

As he spoke, Wang Donglai turned his laptop around and showed Xu Songyao the files on the screen.

"Plan for the development of high-tech in Qin Province in the next 20 years"

A big name.

Just seeing this title, Xu Songyao's expression suddenly became serious.

When he read the contents inside, Xu Songyao's heart was shaken.

The more he read, the more serious and solemn Xu Songyao's expression became.

Because the content inside was completely beyond his imagination.

Although I have always known that Wang Donglai has his own opinions on many issues.

However, Xu Songyao did not expect that Wang Donglai's ideas had reached this height and level.

It took Xu Songyao half an hour to finish reading the document.

At this time, Xu Songyao had calmed down.

"Dongla, are you serious about everything in this document?"

Xu Songyao asked Wang Donglai very seriously, staring at him closely.

"Uncle Xu, I am definitely serious!"

"I am not just making up the contents here, I am sure of it!"

Hearing Wang Donglai's answer, Xu Songyao shook his head and said, "I'm not saying this, but you must be sure to do this. If you only develop in academia and business, there will be no problem with your ability."

"But now that you've submitted this document, the situation is different. If it's not adopted, that's fine. But if it is, then the responsibilities you will have in the future will be different."

"Are you ready for this?"

Xu Songyao spoke very seriously, and his words revealed deep concern.

"Uncle Xu, I know, I'm prepared for this, this lithium-sulfur battery is just the beginning!"

Wang Donglai said with a smile on his face and a firm tone.

Xu Songyao nodded and said no more, thinking about the contents of the document written by Wang Donglai.

……

3pm.

It was the same reception room as last time, and Wang Donglai met the boatman and Mr. Zeng again.

When they met again, their attitude towards Wang Donglai had not changed and they were still enthusiastic.

Wang Donglai did not hide anything and said directly, "Mr. Wang, Mr. Zeng, this is the experimental data from my company's laboratory. You two can take a look."

As he spoke, Wang Donglai handed the data to the two of them.

The two took the document and started reading it immediately.

And when they saw this, their expressions changed slightly.

"Professor Wang, is this data really newly produced in your company's laboratory?"

The boatman naturally understood the technology and immediately realized the importance of the document in his hand.

"Professor Wang, you said yesterday that it would take a day. Could it be because of this reason?"

Zeng Qun's eyes flashed, and he thought of Wang Donglai's actions yesterday.

Wang Donglai did not answer the two people's questions, but smiled.

The two didn't care.

Soon, the two finished reading the document, and their expressions became calm and peaceful.

"Professor Wang, this experimental data is not complete. Maybe some tests have not been done yet?"

Zeng Qun spoke first.

"However, Professor Wang is able to lead your company to develop such materials. He is truly a hero in his youth!"

"When I was Professor Wang's age, I was still studying in school, but Professor Wang has already accomplished so many great things. It's true that the younger generation pushes the older generation forward!"

Zeng Qun started chatting with Wang Donglai with a warm smile, and his words were full of admiration for Wang Donglai.

"Professor Wang, let's be frank. BYD is interested in this technology. What do you think, Professor Wang?"

The boatman was also very straightforward and directly expressed his thoughts.

"Okay, Mr. Wang is straightforward!"

Wang Donglai clapped his hands and said immediately: "Both CEOs can see the prospects of this technology, so I won't say much."

"The fact that you two came to me as soon as possible shows that you value me and pursue technology." "Now it depends on how much this technology is worth to the two CEOs."

Wang Donglai did not directly state his price, but handed a document to each of them.

When the boatman and Mr. Zeng heard this, they looked at the documents in their hands and glanced at each other tacitly.

"Professor Wang, this matter is of great importance. We need some time to discuss it. Can you prepare other vacant rooms?"

As the landlord, Xu Songyao immediately arranged this request.

After the boatman and Zeng Qun left with their employees, Xu Songyao said to Wang Donglai: "Dongla, are you sure you want to do this?"

“BYD and CATL may not agree to your conditions!”

Wang Dong smiled confidently and said, "Uncle Xu, the initiative is in my hands now. They will not disagree. My request is quite high, but it is still acceptable to both families."

"However, they may not agree so readily."

Xu Songyao nodded. Seeing that Wang Donglai knew what was going on, he felt relieved.

……

And in a quiet reception room.

The boatman first handed the experimental data handed to him by Wang Donglai to the accompanying technical staff.

"Take a good look at this data and see if you can find anything from it."

"Also, analyze carefully to see if these data are fake."

After the boatman gave his serious instructions, he no longer paid attention to the technicians, but sat aside and looked at the conditions proposed by Wang Donglai.

When he saw this, the boatman's eyes moved.

Three options.

The first is that Galaxy Technology charges BYD patent licensing fees of 1 billion yuan per year. In addition, for every vehicle using this technology, 5% of the sales price of the vehicle will be deducted.

The second option is to buy out the technology patents at a lump sum price of 5 billion, paid in cash, to be paid off within one year.

The third option is to jointly develop new energy vehicles with a patent licensing fee of 1 billion yuan, but BYD is required to increase investment in Qin Province and Tangdu, build more factories here, and listen to Galaxy Technology's plan in related events.

After looking at these three options, the boatman was completely puzzled.

I have absolutely no idea what Wang Donglai's real intention is with these three plans.

The first and second are in it for the money, no doubt about it.

The third option is a bit strange.

After thinking about it, the boatman still had no clue, so he sat on the sofa, closed his eyes and waited for the technicians' analysis.

……

the other side.

Zeng Qun is also doing the same thing as the boatman.

For CTAL, the breakthrough in lithium-sulfur batteries is very important to them.

If there is a breakthrough, they, as a company in this field, will face a major decision.

Whether to choose to make breakthroughs in other fields or to transform.

If something goes wrong, it will affect the company's future development.

With such worries, Zeng Qun had no time to look at the conditions offered by Wang Donglai, but was focused on verifying the authenticity of the data.

Those who can be brought here are truly elite technical talents.

In addition, the data provided by Wang Donglai was correct and very detailed.

So, the judgment result came out very quickly.

"Mr. Zeng, there is no problem with the experimental data, but the test items are not complete. Currently, through these data and information, we can only preliminarily prove that the Galaxy Technology Laboratory has really developed a new type of material that has a certain effect in solving the 'shuttle effect' of lithium-sulfur batteries!"

The technicians used words carefully and strived for accuracy.

At this time, Zeng Qun breathed a sigh of relief.

"call!"

Only then did he remember the conditions offered by Wang Donglai, and he immediately opened the document and started reading it.

When he saw the contents, Zeng Qun frowned deeply.

The content here was beyond his expectations.

However, at this time.

A technician suddenly changed his expression and said, "Mr. Zeng, Professor Christopher's paper was published in Advanced Materials."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zeng Qun took out his cell phone to check it.

……

Wait until we meet again.

Wang Donglai keenly noticed that Zeng Qun's attitude had changed.

Just when Wang Donglai had this feeling in his heart, Zeng Qun said, "Professor Wang, Professor Christopher's paper was just published in Advanced Materials. It was about the cage-like carbon molecular material they developed."

Hearing this, Wang Donglai suddenly understood.

"So that's how it is. I wonder how Mr. Zeng feels about the conditions I proposed?"

Zeng Qun didn't see the expression on Wang Donglai's face that he wanted to see, and he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He smiled and said, "Boss Wang, the conditions you proposed are a bit unreasonable. This is a serious matter, and I may not be able to make a decision immediately. After all, the company is not just me, and I also need to be responsible to the shareholders, so I need to go back and discuss it with other shareholders and the company's executives."

"Of course, if Mr. Wang can provide more detailed data, I believe it will be easier for me to persuade the company's shareholders and executives, and the conditions proposed by Mr. Wang are not impossible."

Old fox!
This was Wang Donglai’s first thought after hearing Zeng Qun’s words.

Zeng Qun's words sounded reasonable and he seemed to be thinking about Wang Donglai, but if you think about it carefully, you can see that they are not right.

Everyone in CATL knows that Zeng Qun is the core figure and controls the company.

If you really want to cooperate, there is no need to go through so much trouble.

"It's okay, Mr. Zeng can take your time to think about it!"

"This is a big deal after all, and we can't make a hasty decision!"

Wang Donglai didn't say anything else, but just continued speaking along with Zeng Qun's words, with no other expression on his face.

"Uh~"

Zeng Qun was a little surprised by Wang Donglai's reaction, but he quickly realized that Wang Donglai was just pretending, so he smiled and said, "If that's the case, I'll take my leave first. I'll go back and discuss this with other people in the company!"

"it is good!"

Wang Donglai stood up and saw Zeng Qun and others off.

Until he left, Zeng Qun was still a little bit in disbelief. He didn't expect Wang Donglai to be so patient.

However, after thinking about it, Zeng Qun raised his lips slightly and whispered: "Young man, you are still too naive. Let me teach you a lesson this time!"

After seeing Zeng Qun off, Wang Donglai met the boatman.

When they met, the boatman did not talk about the conditions of cooperation, but asked about technical issues.
