After all this planning, Zhang Yi found that the little funds he had now were simply not enough to do these things.

The glass production line alone has cost him more than half of his money, and this does not include the cost of modifying the glass production line.

And according to Zhang Yi's calculation, if the production line they bought will be converted into a special glass production line, the money spent during this period will not be cheaper than buying a production line.

You know, Zhang Yi has been worrying about money these days!

Originally, Zhang Yi was still thinking about whether to stop manufacturing the bearing production line first. After all, manufacturing a high-precision bearing production line would cost too much money.

In order to build a high-precision bearing production line, Zhang Yi has now spent tens of millions. The profit from the factory's previous processing of accessories, aerodynamic bicycles and astronomical telescopes for the Jili Group has basically been invested in research and development.

On the production line.

Although Zhang Yi has invested tens of millions in this production line during this period, success is still far away so far, and if the production line is successfully developed in the future, the investment in this production line will not be over yet.

Even after the production line is built in the future, it will not be perfect, and various tests and improvements will need to be carried out.

After the production line is running, it is not over yet. There will be improvements and upgrades to the production line, which all require money.

Zhang Yi never thought that Ronald Company would come to his door and take the initiative to give money.

Hearing this, Ronald was overjoyed, knowing that he had come to the right place this time at Qicai Stone Machinery Factory.

In fact, they had no idea when they decided to come to Qicai Stone. They didn't know whether Qicai Stone Machinery Factory had the glass they needed.

Then they talked about glass in the office. Ronald hoped that Zhang Yi could directly sell the glass patent he mentioned to their company, but Zhang Yi did not want to sell it.

In the end, Ronald had no choice but to choose patent licensing, but even if it was patent licensing, Ronald originally wanted to adopt an exclusive licensing approach.

He didn't want other manufacturers to produce this kind of glass, and they even offered an annual licensing fee of US$50 million for this purpose, but Zhang Yi vetoed it.

Finally, after Zhang Yi negotiated with him, Zhang Yi promised that in addition to their Ronald company, there would be no more than two authorized companies in the world for this kind of glass, and that in addition to manufacturers in Dahua, manufacturers in other regions

Not in the astronomical instrument industry.

After all, Ronald didn't want many of his company's opponents to be able to use this technology after their company spent a lot of money, especially their company's mortal enemy, Trang Astronomical Instruments.

In terms of licensing price, what Zhang Yi obtained this time far exceeded Zhang Yi's expectations. As the saying goes, asking for high prices and paying back the money on the spot, Zhang Yi's asking price for this technology is US$30 million per year, and the number of years of the license is also limited.

for five years.

However, Zhang Yi never expected that Ronald did not counter-offer Zhang Yi's asking price and directly agreed. He even directly asked Zhang Yi to sign the contract on the spot in the presence of the Xianxian Investment Promotion Bureau for fear that Zhang Yi would regret it.

So Zhang Yi's Colorful Stone Machinery Factory and Ronald Astronomical Instrument Company signed a patent licensing agreement on the spot in Zhang Yi's office under the witness of the Investment Promotion Bureau.

After the patent licensing agreement was signed, Ronald happily left Zhang Yi's Colorful Stone Machinery Factory with the glass manufacturing information that day.

As for the money for patent authorization, it will take a day or two to arrive because it has to go through cross-border procedures.

The day after Zhang Yi and Ronald signed the patent licensing agreement, Zhang Yi’s Xianxian Daily reported the matter and even put it on the front page of the Xianxian Daily.

The next night, Zhang Yi and his Colorful Stone Machinery Factory were on the Xianxian County News.

On the third day, even the news in Zhoutai City, where Zhang Yi was located, reported the incident.

When this incident was reported, many people were incredulous about it. Even many employees in Zhang Yi's factory looked unbelievable after hearing the incident.

If Xianxian News and Zhoutai News were not official media, it would be impossible to fabricate such a thing, and no one would believe such a thing.

You must know that the Qicai Stone Machinery Factory is just a small machinery factory among the many machinery factories in the entire Zhoutai City. There are not even 10,000 but also thousands of such machinery factories in Zhoutai City.

Even though Zhang Yi and his Colorful Stone Machinery Factory had done relatively well in aerodynamic bicycles and astronomical telescopes before, not many people in Taizhou City actually knew about this machinery factory.

However, this incident made many people remember that there was such a manufacturer in Zhoutai City. Even on the second day of the news, their aerodynamic bicycles showed a rare hot trend in the entire Zhoutai City.

Zhoutai City is not Hangzhou. Although Zhoutai City is the manufacturing base of Jiangnan Province and has more wealthy people, it is far behind Hangzhou. What's more, due to Hangzhou's car license restriction measures,

Coupled with traffic congestion, even rich people don't like to drive a car when traveling.

But it's different in Zhoutai City, so the sales of aerodynamic bicycles in Zhoutai City are tepid.

At the same time, on the night of the news report, the sales of aerodynamic bicycles on Zhang Yi's company's website and online store were also much better than usual.

Zhang Yi did not pay much attention to the reports of Zhoutai News and Xianxian News.

Because the day after they signed the contract with Ronald, the Hangcheng Military Region called their company to ask him about this matter.

"Boss Zhang! Our military noticed that your Qicai Stone Machinery Factory signed a patent licensing agreement for a new type of glass with the internationally renowned astronomical instrument manufacturer Ronald Astronomical Instruments. I didn't know that your factory signed with them.

What kind of glass is it? Will you reveal the formula of the glass we are cooperating with?" The caller was Second Lieutenant Fang Jinming who had been to Zhang Yi and his Colorful Stone Machinery Factory before.

"Second Lieutenant Fang! Please rest assured that the glass we signed with Ronald is not the glass we cooperated with, it is just an ordinary optical glass.

As for whether Ronald Astronomical Instruments can use this formula to deduce the formula of the glass we cooperate with, that is impossible.
Chapter completed!
