Chapter 45 The phone call of Mr. Corn

At this moment, the joy of the third uncle buying a bicycle was completely washed away.

"Look at the first and second uncles, they bring meat and iced watermelons to their homes. When did you bring such things?" The third aunt criticized the third uncle. After marrying the third uncle, she had never eaten a popsicle, let alone iced watermelons!

At Diaoyutai, the eldest brother, Foreign Minister Andre, received a long-distance call from Yumi Xiaofu.

"At any cost, get the formula of ultra-high strength steel! Two experts will be there to assist tomorrow. If it cannot be done, I suggest you give up the position and have a more suitable person to take charge!"

“I’ll put the recipe on your desk filled with corn……….”

At this moment, He Ku was sitting at home eating iced watermelons when suddenly another red flag came to the backyard.

Secretary Huang hurriedly pulled He Ku, "Comrade He Ku, you are following me with the drawings now and go to the leader's house to spend the night at night. I can't tell you anything."

When I came to the two-story building of the leader, I saw a legendary figure.

"Are you Mr. Zhou?" He asked incrediblely, wiping his eyes.

"Why, don't it look like it?" Mr. Zhou smiled kindly and pulled He Ku to sit on the sofa. "Comrade Xiao Ku, the high-strength steel you developed has made great contributions to our industrial construction. I'll tell you a long story..."

The leader nodded solemnly, "I have a little hope, that is, to sell our steel rolling equipment to the eldest brother, and let the eldest brother see it. Our level, the price I expect is five million US dollars. I will raise this matter tomorrow, Mr. Zhou and I will raise it."

The next day, He Ku followed President Zhou with excitement and the leader participated in the negotiations.

Although he was very low when he entered the negotiation room, his face was full of smiles, humble to his bones, and he was extremely low-key, and he didn't look like a young and promising young man at all. However, others in the conference room, including the eldest brother, Foreign Minister Andre, did not underestimate them at all. On the contrary, they all paid attention to them as soon as possible.

Participating in such meetings at an early twenties is an unparalleled high profile. No matter how low your attitude is or how humble your posture is, it cannot change this fact.

There was a small episode in the process of getting to know each other. The leader himself knew one of the other experts, and he also knew another expert. It was a fate. They had all come to China for assistance.

The first stage ended, and the second round of negotiations on the arrears officially began. Due to the emergence of super-strength steel, there will be experts sent by two big brothers overnight in places that have no connection with the scientific research field. It is them who participated in the negotiations with Andre and have greater authority than Andre.

"I won't go around the corner. I said three days ago that we have no money now, and it's very difficult for both sides to repay the debt by bartering. What does the corn husband mean?" Mr. Zhou said quickly and spoke first, opening the prelude to the negotiations.

"Big Brother also considered the special difficulties you encountered, so he agreed to your barter request." Andrei took the instructions of the senior management and was very purposeful. "If possible, you can quote a price. Big Brother needs a steel formula, which is the piece of high-strength steel you gave me three days ago."

"Big Brother's basic materials science is more advanced than ours. Before you came, you didn't ask the experts how much money it would cost to develop this kind of material?" Mr. Zhou asked.

"I asked." Andrei looked a little depressed: "Big Brother is very full of tasks and can't find time to estimate the value. Given the friendly relationship between our two countries, Big Brother is willing to believe your offer. Of course, if you have finished steel products, Big Brother will be happy to accept it."

"This thing is our lifeblood. The finished product can be exported, but how can the formula be sold to you?" The leader snorted softly, a little dissatisfied, "You should know that our scientific research capabilities are limited, and the development of this level of steel has almost affected the whole country's strength. Even if it is sold, it will be difficult for you to bear the price."

"This kind of steel has extremely high hardness and is very difficult to process. Mr. Zhou, letting that comrade from the Ministry of Metallurgy dominate the formula is a waste. Our experts have tested this material, which is very suitable for manufacturing aircraft carrier decks. IMHO, you cannot play its role and you will not use it at all. From now on to the next thirty years."

"Let's talk about debt issues first, let's talk about steel next time." Mr. Zhou immediately changed the topic, leaving the big brother and foreign minister a false impression that he was unwilling to sell the formula.

"We are talking about debts now. If you are willing to sell the formula, we can subtract the corresponding amount from the debts." Andre turned the topic to the formula and then said to the leader: "I reiterate that this material is extremely hard and has a stronger ductility than ordinary steel. It is almost impossible for you to carry out deep processing. It is better to use it to offset part of the debt. This is very beneficial to you. If you insist on holding it in your own hands, it will be worthless."

"You should have seen the barrel we made, right? We decided to use this material to make the cannon! We have the ability to use it!" The leader was despised by the elder brother, and the eldest leader was still a little uncomfortable. He pushed back and said carefully to Mr. Zhou afterwards: "I firmly disagree with the elder brother's request, but I can sell a new type of rolling mill technical information."

Mr. Zhou nodded, "Dear Foreign Minister Andre, let's talk about the issue of a new steel rolling equipment first, and then the issue of high-strength steel. We hope that the new domestic rolling mill can offset some debts."

As soon as this statement came out, why hurry up and start sorting out the information and handing over several important drawings and parameters.

Andre glanced at it and handed them over to the two technicians who were accompanying him.

"Yes, you are indeed the best students of Big Brother! The emergence of this set of equipment is epoch-making and can offset debts."

As he said that, the two accompanying technical experts looked carefully several times, and then whispered a few words to Andre.

Andre nodded to the two experts and said to General Zhou: "Brother is willing to buy technical information about this equipment. You can quote a price and allow part of the debt to be deducted."

The translation just now came to translate, and the leader's eyes lit up, but he didn't expect it to be true. When he heard the words behind, he immediately turned his attention to what he wanted.

Mr. Zhou also nodded to He Ku, so He Ku raised five fingers.

"The price of 50 million is too high, we can't accept it. You can discuss it now and re-quote it." Andrei seemed to have a helpless expression and said to Mr. Zhou. In fact, the time when he reacted was only a few milliseconds away from the time when He Ku raised his hand.

The negotiations were underway, and the two sides separated and prepared to return to their respective rooms to start the discussion.

According to the five million that the leader had made He Ku repay, Andrei's 50 million was literally ten times more. If it weren't for the negotiation field, the three would have laughed out loud. After the elder brother left, the three began to withdraw from the negotiation field with a smile.
