The person who sent the computer to Yang Kai was Gao Fan's collaborator in Japan, Kitajima Masanobu.
Gao Fan remembered his promise to Yang Kai. Before Kitajima Masanobu returned to China, he gave him a task to help purchase an IBM_PC machine in the Japanese market and mail it directly to the Department of Chemistry of Peking University. The recipient
It is Yang Kai.
The price of an IBM_pc machine in the Japanese market is nearly 1 million yen, which is equivalent to nearly 7,000 yuan at the current exchange rate. Gao Fan promised Kitajima Masanobu that this money can be deducted from future cleaning agent sales. Gao Fan
This money will be used to replenish the payment for Bei Daozheng's goods in China.
Kitajima Masanobu is not worried that Gao Fan will default on his debt. The cooperation between him and Gao Fan is completed through official channels. Kitajima Masanobu has enough reasons to believe that Chinese officials will not let him go.
In this way, as soon as Kitajima Masanobu returned to Japan, he purchased an original ibm_pc on the market and sent it to Beijing according to the address left by Gao Fan.
When Yang Kai first heard that he had a parcel from abroad, he felt that Monk Zhanger was scratching his head. When he saw clearly the words ibm_pc written on the delivery note, he suddenly remembered what Gao Fan had promised him when he left school, and he couldn't help but
Shocked.
This computer finally fell into the hands of Yang Kai, and it took a lot of twists and turns.
A PC is worth RMB 7,000. This is calculated based on the exchange rate. At this time, the ratio of U.S. dollars to RMB is 1:1.92, so a PC sold for more than 3,000 yuan in the U.S. market will be equivalent to RMB 7,000.
.
In fact, at this time, the country was extremely short of foreign exchange, and the exchange rate between U.S. dollars and RMB on the black market could reach 1:10. Based on this ratio, this PC is equivalent to more than 30,000 yuan.
Whether it is 7,000 yuan or 30,000 yuan, it is an unimaginable huge amount of money for Chinese people in this era. For such valuable equipment to be sent out of thin air to the hands of an ordinary teacher, the school cannot help but be vigilant, and
There is no reason for others not to be jealous.
"I told the school that this is equipment sent to your company by foreign investors. Because I was worried about sending it to Maolin without insurance, I sent it to Beijing first. I just received the goods on your company's behalf. In this way, the school still
They have nabbed me several times, saying that it is not appropriate to put it here and that it should be managed by the school." Yang Kai told Gao Fan.
"It seems that I still thought of this matter too simply." Gao Fan said with emotion.
"That goes without saying!" Yang Kai scolded, "It's nearly 1 million yen, and you didn't even say hello to me in advance. You don't take it seriously, right?"
"It wasn't a big deal originally." Gao Fan said with a smile, "Brother, you don't know, when I was in Shuinan, I received a phone call from home saying that Kitajima Masanobu had already negotiated several terms in Japan.
Retailers, let us hurry up and ship the goods.
"The first batch of orders from Masanobu Kitajima totaled 100,000 bottles. Our FOB price for each bottle of cleaning agent is 1,500 yen. Brother, please do the math, how much does it cost in total?"
"100,000, multiplied by 1,500, this is... 150 million!"
Yang Kai's eyes widened, almost doubting his level of arithmetic.
Gao Fan said with a smile: "Isn't it just 150 million yen? Our factory must be extremely busy now. Fortunately, I made an excuse and said that I would come back to take the exam and leave all the work to them.
It’s gone.”
"150 million yen, this is a business worth 1 million yuan. You actually dare to leave it to others to do it. Isn't this too free and easy?" Yang Kai said.
Gao Fan said: "Actually, it's useless for me to be there. As for technical matters, we have an engineer in the factory, a college student in the early 1960s. His level is very high and he can definitely handle it. As for production management, you have to rely on it.
My father is an old man.
"Our fertilizer factory is currently undergoing equipment renovation, and the factory has stopped production. My old man is helping me keep an eye on the production of cleaning agents.
"Our factory used to produce 20,000 tons of chemical fertilizers per year. Now we can produce 100,000 bottles of cleaning agent, which is about 50 tons. It is not difficult."
"So, your Canghua Company would be the same with or without you?" Yang Kai joked.
Gao Fan said: "Of course I am still very useful. I developed this chemical cleaning agent. The cleaning agent produced with my formula is at least ten years ahead of the existing cleaning agents on the Japanese market. This is my value.
Where.”
Yang Kai nodded and said: "That's true. I have analyzed your formula and searched foreign literature, and found that your formula is indeed unique. I can't say whether it is ten years ahead of foreign countries, but it must be.
More effective than existing cleaning agents abroad.”
The formula of the chemical cleaning agent comes from Gao Fan's later memories. In his impression, this cleaning agent was developed by the Japanese in the early 1990s, and once it was put on the market, it defeated the original similar products on the market.
Gao Fan put this product on sale ten years in advance, so he didn't have to worry about the sales effect. But he was also a little unsure, that is, in this time and space, would the Japanese have invented this product in advance because of his time travel?
If he creates a product and then sells it, not only will he not be able to make any money, he may also get involved in a patent lawsuit.
In order to avoid this situation, he wrote a letter to Yang Kai, attached the cleaning agent formula, and asked Yang Kai to help him search foreign literature to see if similar products had appeared.
Yang Kai works as a data clerk, so it is easy to do some information retrieval. He analyzed foreign literature on the research and development of chemical cleaning agents in recent years and determined that Gaofan's development idea is completely new, and foreign scholars have not yet proposed such an idea.
.
"Gao Fan, I'm really curious, how did you come up with this idea?" Yang Kai asked.
Gao Fan waved his hand and said: "The secret must not be leaked, so just think of me as a genius."
"I prefer to believe that you are a blind cat who has just met a dead mouse." Yang Kai said disdainfully.
He is a genius himself, so he naturally knows how geniuses do things. The chemical cleaning agent developed by Gao Fan has some unique design ideas, but to be honest, it is not mysterious. Sometimes it may just be a sudden inspiration.
Of course, the idea mentioned here refers to a genius. If you meet a mortal, even if you put the "inspiration" in front of him, he will not be able to do it.
"By the way, senior brother, how are you using this computer?" Gao Fan finished talking about his own affairs and turned the conversation back to Yang Kai.
Speaking of computers, Yang Kai suddenly became animated. He pulled Gao Fan to the computer and said excitedly:
"This computer is really useful. These days, I am learning the Pascal language and practicing with your cleaning agent formula. Look, I have developed several different modified products for you, which are definitely better than your original ones.
