Reborn in 1976, teach him how to be an official

Liu Hongyi was "flattered".

In such an occasion, the old professor gave him enough face and politely called him "Commissioner Liu".

Come to think of it, the old professor himself is also a member of the Science and Technology Committee. Even if he does not respect Liu Hongyi, he has to respect the big name of Chongqing Hua University Science and Technology Development Committee.

"Okay, okay, Mr. Wang, Mr. Zhong, please come this way, gentlemen."

Although this is Shougang's workshop, it is perfectly acceptable for the two scientific masters to visit it.

All the dukes and lords had to accompany him in a well-behaved manner.

Zhao Hanmin personally gave a demonstration to everyone.

"How much has efficiency improved with this automated system?"

Mr. Wang asked.

Zhao Hanmin replied, "The efficiency of each individual workstation has increased by over 200 percent. This is because some workstations require manual labor and cannot be replaced by machines. Therefore, the overall efficiency of the entire production line should have increased by over 40 percent."

Professor Wang was surprised and said, "Great! You've really conquered this problem... How about this? When I get back, I'll call Liu Feibin, one of my students, and ask him if he's interested in this system."

When Quan Guanhou and others heard the name "Liu Feibin", their expressions changed slightly.

If you mention Liu Feibin in other industries, perhaps no one has heard of him.

But in the steel industry, things are naturally different.

Liu Feibin is the general manager of Jianghan Iron and Steel Company.

Hangang is a behemoth that is not much weaker than Shougang.

"Hongyi, how about we lower the price a bit?"

After returning to school, Zhao Yuanfang grabbed Liu Hongyi and spoke in a low voice.

He is now so short of money that his eyes are popping out.

"Two million isn't enough, but one million will do. Let's get the money first and put it in our pockets..."

As for the ten million, Zhao Yuanfang didn't mention it at all.

Even he felt that it was totally unreliable and that Liu Hongyi was just bragging.

Two million should be Liu Hongyi’s real “psychological price”. As the saying goes, if you ask for a high price, you should pay back on the spot.

Shougang would have to be crazy to agree to give 10 million.

Liu Hongyi smiled and said, "Teacher, this is already the most conscientious price I can offer. Any lower would be disrespectful to science."

Zhao Yuanfang wanted to spit in his face.

It's okay if you say this to the people at the steel plant, but why are you pretending to be so arrogant with me?

Do you really think that just because I, Zhao Yuanfang, am the director of the Tertiary Industry Office, I don't know anything? I'm still a professor of computer science.

"Teacher, you haven't considered that I really gave them a huge advantage. Shougang can't always be this size. I can't even tell you what kind of giant it will become in the future..."

"If Qinghua Industrial Park wasn't in urgent need of funds, and if this 10 million yuan investment wasn't expected to grow into 100 billion yuan in the future, I wouldn't have given them such a favorable price. I could even install the system for them for free the first time."

"But if you want to upgrade and iterate in the future, a mere 10 million won't be enough."

Free is the most expensive, it has always been like this.

"Yes, yes, yes, I admit that what you said makes sense..."

One hundred billion!

Zhao Yuanfang was simply too exhausted to complain.

You're not the kind of person who brags. You're not bragging without thinking. You're just tearing up the draft paper, right?

But Zhao Yuanfang didn't argue with him about this. He just wanted to get the money quickly.

"But aren't we in urgent need of money?"

"Lower it a little more!"

"No surrender!"

Liu Hongyi refused outright.

"If they don't accept it, that's their loss. Teacher, why are you so anxious? Can we still eat plucked pigs without Zhang the butcher?"

As long as this system is proven to be effective, Liu Hongyi really doesn't believe that he won't be able to find a big customer who recognizes the value of the system.

On the Shougang side, the atmosphere was completely different.

To be honest, Quan Guanhou really wanted to develop this automation system, but he could not accept the offer from Qinghua University.

But that's how negotiations are, there's no rush.
