Lu Youyou originally wanted to invite Gu Zhe to have a meal today and celebrate his birthday.

Other consultations are secondary. As long as the excuse can be raised, she will be satisfied in the past month after that, with excuses for meeting frequently to make each other feel at ease.

Unexpectedly, Gu Zhe could really tell so much information, and there were many detailed analysis, and the ticket price was worth the price on the spot.

The two chatted deeply, and didn't realize that they forgot the time. Later, they directly pointed out the project. When they finally sorted out thoroughly, they found that it was almost nine o'clock in the evening and the restaurant was about to close and had not finished the candlelight dinner.

While Lu Youyou was grateful, she felt even more embarrassed and celebrated her classmates' birthday, but she talked about so many unsightly things.

For this reason, she personally poured red wine for Gu Zhe as a thank you. The two of them finished their food quickly before taking the bus back to school together.

Sitting in the car, the light was dim and I couldn't read the documents. The two of them had time to talk about some topics about life. Lu Youyou also gently cared about Gu Zhe's body.

Gu Zhe thought of Lu Youyou losing a lot in the past two months, and he laughed at himself from the bottom of his heart: "It's really three months, Hedong and three months, Hexi. I remember when I first returned to China in the middle of the period, you envied me for my successful weight loss. Now it's my turn to envy you."

Lu Youyou smiled gently: "Why are you mentioning this again? I have praised it just now. It depends on you to teach me how to meditate and meditate. Besides, you have done a good job yourself. If you pretend to be modest, I will think you are sour. "

Gu Zhe: "I'm really not humble. I'm not fatter, but the school is obviously harder than summer vacation, and I don't have time to swim. I'm so busy every day, and I'm almost midnight when I'm idle, so I can only run at night. I'm not used to it. My knees are not very comfortable recently."

This made Lu Youyou's expertise, and she immediately became energetic. She lifted Gu Zhe's trouser legs without seeing her, and carefully touched his knees.

"It's true that you used to lose weight by swimming quickly. You are not used to long-distance running. If you have too much intensity, you will indeed hurt your knees. You should pay attention to the rhythm step by step. First practice squatting against the wall to strengthen the tendons of your legs.

Your knees are a bit X-shaped legs. You usually walk too arrogantly. You must often have an outer horoscope. To correct your posture, you must also focus on strengthening the iliopsoas muscle exercise on the outer side of your legs.

In this way, the muscle binding force on both sides of the knee can be balanced. Let’s do this. When you go back to your hometown during the winter vacation, you will have time to exercise together. I will teach you slowly at that time.”

She said a lot of words seriously. When she saw that Gu Zhe did not respond, she realized something. Her face turned red and she pulled Gu Zhe's trouser legs back:

"Why don't you speak? Have you listened carefully?"

Gu Zhe: "I listened very seriously, but I didn't expect you to be so professional."

Lu Youyou then replied to the anger and said to her happiness, throwing her shyness behind her: "That's a must, I've been an athlete for two years. Last time it was an accident. It's normal for me to help you in sports."

She was really happy when she said this, and she was full of pride and pride for being able to help Gu Zhe.

Although it is just a few warm little things in life, it is really good to work together to make yourself feel more worthy of each other.

...

After Gu Zhe's birthday, New Year's Day will be just a few days later, and the busy final exam season will soon come again.

Even the R&D tasks in the laboratory have to be intermittent from time to time, leaving some time for the assistants to review and prepare for the exam.

Fortunately, Gu Zhe's first wave of contact lens polyglutamic acid materials research and development work has basically come to an end, and the subsequent ones were just a small fuss to check for omissions. So by mid-January, Gu Zhe finally completed the project at hand.

In the last 20 days, he developed a new formula. Compared with the initial version he applied for in late December, the disadvantage of the new formula is that its centrifugal optical accuracy is slightly lower.

Only "contact lenses with a degree of myopia below 300 degrees can be centrifuged at one time to ensure accuracy without secondary grinding."

But the advantage is that "the density of the material in the gel state is very close to the existing contact lens dyes on the market, and the water locking properties are better"-

Speaking of human language, we finally solved the problem of "centrifugal can also produce contact lenses, and we are not afraid of the dye being thrown by centrifugal force and being distributed unevenly". In the future, contact lenses under 300 degrees can also be produced directly using high-efficiency centrifugal methods.

This technological progress will not be realized until around 2010 in the world before Gu Zhe was reborn.

In addition, during the three weeks of the final exam season, Gu Zhe submitted the first batch of four inventions and seven or eight utility model applications, and they also received the acceptance number of the National Knowledge Bureau.

Before, he just "applied" but it did not mean that the State Administration of Knowledge was accepted. Now he has obtained the "acceptance number", which at least proves that the State Administration of Knowledge took a quick look at his materials. There was no problem in form, and there was no obvious mistake in seeing through it at first sight. He has left behind to slowly go through the review process.

In this way, Gu Zhe wanted to find someone to sell patents during the winter vacation or after the New Year, and he was more confident. As long as he came to him with an acceptance number and a physical object that could prove the performance of the product, the customer basically would not treat him as a bragging liar.

Finally, Gu Zhe's first paper involving actual scientific research results was finally published successfully in "Journal of Donghai University (English A Collection)", and was in the last issue before the winter vacation.

With the paper, and with certain operations, it will be easier to let powerful companies in the industry pay attention to this cutting-edge technology.

Everything is ready. After the New Year, Gu Zhe can sell his skills with all his strength.

The classmates he hired to do odd jobs have not been idle for money in the past two months, and have actually helped him do something.

For example, Lin Jingjing and Xu Song, who were doing market research, did a lot of questionnaires to gain an in-depth understanding of the attitudes of local brands of stores and dealers towards new products.

Although these investigations did not find any directly available business opportunities, they also proved some of Gu Zhe's previous speculations, or helped him find out the omissions and avoid some pitfalls.

For example, Lin Jingjing's research shows that most glasses dealers are not very interested in technological progress that reduces costs. They are also very afraid that when consumers know about cheap technology, the industry will not be able to maintain huge profits.

After all, even in 2002, the price of glasses was at least five times the production cost. Of the four times that were extra, at least three times were used to amortize the store and the staff costs.

Especially for people with glasses, they have to have a separate optometry. Given customized solutions, few standards can be used to refer to. Optometry machines and optometry are all supported by glasses.

So whether the lens itself can be cheaper is only a small part of the cost for dealers. They are afraid that new technologies will lower the industry standards and affect terminal sales prices. They hope that upstream companies will develop peacefully, maintain the status quo, and do not engage in technical competition that reduces costs.

This survey conclusion can also confirm that Gu Zhe’s initial decision was correct: Fortunately, he didn’t have the money to directly use resin lenses for frame glasses, but could only use contact lenses first.

After all, contact lenses are much less dependent on customization and store optometry. Consumers do not have to deal with opticians. As long as they know the degree they need, they can buy them by themselves. In this way, the hatred and obstruction of the conservative forces of middlemen and conservative forces against new technologies can be minimized.

Lin and Xu's investigation further strengthened Gu Zhe's determination and also reminded Gu Zhe:

If the authorization and promotion are not effective in the future, you can consider layouting some channels that bypass existing dealers and go to the market to make sales in person to disrupt the industry and force giants to follow up and buy their technology.

This kind of operation sounds a bit radical.

After all, Gu Zhe has never personally run an industrial enterprise, and has never been reborn. If he is too aggressive, borrows money to personally arrange heavy assets and opens a factory to build contact lenses, he will definitely exceed the boundaries of his capabilities and be destroyed by various emergencies.

However, Gu Zhe was also very self-aware. He knew that this was a last resort. Even if he had to do it, it was just like the case of Meriser and Shengjia sewing machine in 1851. It was clicked at the same time-

Meriser Singer was an American entrepreneur at that time and the inventor of the sewing machine in the legal sense. When he first started promoting sewing machines, capitalists from the conservative garment factory were worried that a large number of sewing women's industry would be responsible for resisting his machine.

In order to break the deadlock quickly, Shengjia extended its downstream of the industrial chain and directly used its unsold sewing machines to open a garment factory. Taking advantage of its huge cost advantages, it killed the first batch of garment factory capitalists who were reluctant to let female workers go unemployed. After establishing their authority and proved their efficiency, all garment manufacturers in the United States realized the reality and began to fully introduce sewing machines.

The same is true for the alternative plan that Gu Zhe has formulated for himself. Even if he has to, he will not open a factory and build contact lenses for a long time, just to break up a hole. His ultimate goal is to ask Yishilu and Haichang Glasses and other brands to charge authorization fees.

To achieve this goal, Gu Zhe had to think of two things. One was to continue making money during the subsequent winter vacation and figure out "if you had to open a production line by yourself, at least how much would it cost to maintain it so that the capital chain would not be broken."

Another thing is to prepare for the future and find marketing channels for contact lenses - all existing stores are mainly hated by new technologies, and dealers are unlikely to follow up. Therefore, we must not use enemy channels.

As a person who came back in more than 20 years, Gu Zhe naturally thought of the first thing he wanted in this regard was "online sales".

Unfortunately, there is not even Taobao now. I vaguely remember that the first birth of Taobao will have to wait until May next year. Alibaba learned from the social pain caused by SARS and opened online retail.

Of course, if you can be the first to open an online store, you will definitely get Taobao's continuous promotional and distribution resources. Even if you can't sell much goods, you can make a big splash. At that time, you can still make a bluff and scare Yilushi and Haichang.

Gu Zhe began to wonder if it was possible to not spend a few local chess pieces, let Taobao appear a little earlier, and allow himself to occupy a starting advantage in it?

Now it’s about to be 2003, so it’s definitely too late to invest in the Internet. Gu Zhe doesn’t have the capital and the energy to spend money.
