Chapter 567 This will be a wonderful thing [Fourth update]
A few days later, the three Nacks met up with the security team in Wilmington. No one knew what the three of them had done.
Only Nack nodded to Gao Jin secretly.
Gao Jin didn't care at all. It was still some time before the forum started. Sonia had already contacted the forum organizing committee and reported Gao Jin's address.
He said that he would arrive as scheduled when the forum started, and the relevant special passes had been collected, and everyone would have one copy.
On this day, when Gao Jin was drinking tea on the farm platform, Nadun, the chairman of Airbus Group, came to visit. Gao Jin invited Nadun to the platform on the second floor to drink tea and chat.
The two met and chatted several times in France. What's more, Gao Jin also placed an order with Airbus for a large aircraft.
The current aircraft is a bit small and vehicles cannot be shipped directly onto it. Gao Jin directly ordered a large aircraft that can transport five vehicles directly to the aircraft.
In this way, no matter where Gao Jin goes by plane, he doesn't have to worry about not having a vehicle to use.
A large aircraft is expensive, with the cost of modifications reaching more than 70 million euros.
The two of them each picked up their teacups and took a sip. Nadu started to talk, "Gao, does your Xingling Group have an aircraft hydrogen engine project?"
After hearing this, Gao Jin was stunned for a moment, looked at Na Dun and nodded and said, "Yes, we have such a project, but we haven't made a complete breakthrough yet."
"How about we cooperate, or let Airbus Group acquire your aircraft hydrogen engine project?" Naton said these words very seriously, and Gao Jin could see that Naton was not joking.
"Naton, frankly speaking, it is useless for you to acquire this project, because we are taking a different route, which is fundamentally different from the current mainstream aircraft engines."
"We are taking the carbon magnetic boosting route. You know the difficulty of this technology and the prospects of this project even more clearly. It is impossible for me to sell this project." Gao Jin said this very frankly.
Carbon magnetic supercharging is supercharging again on the basis of turbocharging. It is a brand-new power model. There is only theory in the world and there is no prototype.
The aircraft hydrogen engine studied internally by Xingling Group uses this technology. If it were not too difficult, it would have been released long ago.
"How about Airbus becoming a shareholder in this project?" Nadun said with a smile, knowing that there was little hope but still giving it a try. This project is too important.
It is important that the Airbus Group devotes all its energy to dealing with it.
"What do you think?"
Gao Jin asked with a smile, and then gave a helpless smile. It was already obvious that Gao Jin did not intend to let anyone participate in this project.
"Gao, we can definitely cooperate"
"Xingling Group has no aircraft project. The existence of Airbus symbolizes the unity of the European Union. Our cooperation is also a big benefit to you." Naton had to move away from the EU flag.
In terms of money, Xingling Group is not short of money and its financial strength is definitely stronger than Airbus.
In terms of corporate influence, Xingling Group's influence is higher than that of Airbus and is global in nature.
The only thing Gao Jin could worry about was the EU, and that was a helpless move.
"Na Dun, where did you hear the news?" Gao Jin asked.
After hearing this, Nadun smiled and said, "Gao, your project is not a secret. Seven or eight world-renowned aircraft engine engineers are in your Xingling Group."
"Don't tell me they're working on tractor engines."
Gao Jin smiled awkwardly after hearing this. He had no choice but to know what projects the Xingling Group was carrying out.
"I'm surprised why Boeing didn't come to discuss this matter with me," Gao Jin asked.
"It's very simple. Boeing has its own hydrogen engine R&D team, and they believe they will launch a hydrogen engine faster than you."
After Naton said this, he looked at Gao Jin with a meaningful look. His meaning was very clear. If we work together in this matter, we will both benefit and suffer two harms.
After hearing this, Gao Jin frowned and began to think. He was not in a hurry and started drinking tea slowly. After all, Gao Jin's tea here was very good, and he also did research on black tea.
After a while, Gao Jin turned slightly and said something to Na Dun. After speaking, Na Dun began to think.
"Naton, I will not give up the carbon magnetic booster under any circumstances. According to my plan, if we work together, we will both benefit and suffer two harms," Gao Jin added.
After Nadun thought for a while, Gao Jin's plan was considered an acceptable one. He made a decision in his heart, stretched out his right hand and said, "Happy cooperation!"
Gao Jin extended his right hand to shake Nadun's hand and said, "It's a pleasure to cooperate."
This matter has been settled. Although there are many details that need to be discussed, these are small matters. Now the two of them have enough time to negotiate.
Moreover, this matter still requires Naton to carry out some activities after returning to Europe, and a decision cannot be made yet.
The two discussed it, and Gao Jin invited Na Feng to have lunch here. There is a chef on the farm, who was hired by Gao Jin. He is a four-star chef with very good skills.
Na Dun agreed and went downstairs to eat and chat together. Gao Jin also opened a bottle of red wine and invited Na Dun to taste it. This is a new product launched by Xingling Group Winery.
"This red wine of yours is very mellow, what kind of wine is it made from?" Nadun asked.
"Romantic ruby" Gao Jin said with a smile.
Beginning in 1995, Ishikawa Prefecture spent nearly 10 years breeding and cultivating a grape variety. It is bright red in color, looks delicate, and tastes extremely sweet. Each grape is about 3 centimeters in diameter and about 2 times the size of Kyoho grapes.
times.
The price is also ridiculously expensive.
On July 11, 2015, a bunch of "romantic ruby" grapes weighing about 700 grams was auctioned for a sky-high price of 1 million yen (about 51,000 yuan).
On July 9, 2019, a bunch of 24 "Romantic Ruby" grapes were auctioned for a sky-high price of 76,000 yuan, and one grape cost about more than 3,000 yuan.
Ordinary rich people can't afford this kind of grape.
The Xinghai Botanical Research Institute purchased the seeds and conducted trial planting and improvement in Bordeaux, France. After three years of improvement, a batch was successfully planted, but the yield was extremely low.
It is still being continuously improved, and there is a dedicated project team working on this possibility.
"Gao, you are too extravagant"
Nadun said this with a look of jealousy. As a red wine lover, Nadun also had a deep understanding of grape varieties. Gao Jin knew the grape variety as soon as he said its name.
Using this grape variety to make wine is nothing short of luxury.
If Nadun was asked to spend his own money to buy romantic rubies, he would also feel pain.
"When I've reached this stage, it's natural for me to enjoy it." Gao Jin said with a smile, and then he smiled bitterly. Gao Jin really couldn't refute this sentence.
Isn’t the purpose of working hard to make money just to enjoy life better?
They drank and ate food. After the meal, the two chatted in the living room for a while, and then left in the car.
The first led to the second. Many people came to visit Gao Jin at the farm. Correspondingly, Gao Jin also attended cocktail parties held by many people, mostly organized by people from the business community.
The people who appeared at the cocktail party were all business people, and no government officials, whether from the United States or foreign countries, appeared.
As the cocktail party progressed, many deals and contracts were concluded while the big bosses were drinking and drinking, and everyone was laughing and talking, feeling very comfortable.
The EUV Industry Alliance also held a cocktail party and invited Gao Jin. Stavin, the Secretary General of the Industry Alliance, had a serious talk with Gao Jin and hoped that Gao Jin would join the EUV Industry Alliance.
At present, the EUV Industry Alliance has integrated most companies from chip design to manufacturing, but the largest chip manufacturer in China has not been fully integrated.
The chip factory under the Xingling Group is already mass-producing ten-nanometer chips. It was originally expected that the Xingling Group would produce eight-nanometer chips in the second half of last year, but the Xingling Group failed to make a breakthrough.
However, the EUV Industry Alliance does not dare to underestimate the R&D capabilities of Xingling Group.
"Sorry, I can't join your alliance, and I don't want to betray the company's confidential information." Gao Jin simply refused.
Stavin smiled after hearing this, and wanted to say the clear words for Shanxing: "We have nine ways to make you hand over the data willingly."
"Gao, do you think our alliance can't do anything to you?" Stavin said this calmly.
"Staven, I know what you rely on," Gao Jin said with a smile. Stavin was stunned after hearing this.
"Moganshan Company has made a breakthrough. Although it cannot reach the performance of Xingling Group's ultra-high thermal conductivity products, it is almost the same."
"Do you think that with their products, your EUV Alliance can confidently and boldly suppress the Protoss Group until the Protoss Group surrenders?"
Gao Jin said this very calmly.
"yes!"
"Although Moganshan Company's materials are not as good as your Xingling Group's ultra-high thermal conductivity materials, they are still sufficient, especially for mobile phones and high-end technology."
"I can't think of any reason to let go of your Protoss Group," Stavin gave a clear answer.
After hearing this, Gao Jin smiled, raised his hand and drank the red wine in the glass in one gulp, and then waved to the waiter. The waiter came over with the wine, and Gao Jin put the wine glass on and took another glass.
"Staven, you can give it a try, I'm looking forward to it"
"Frankly speaking, I've been very bored lately and really want to have some fun. I hope you won't disappoint me."
"I will definitely have fun with you"
"The price?"
“How about undersea travel?”
"You can see if I have the ability to ask your so-called EUV Industry Alliance to invite you to travel to the bottom of the sea."
"It would be a wonderful thing to be sent to the bottom of the sea by your own organization to travel, isn't it?"
Gao Jin said this with a smile on his face. Stavin narrowed his eyes and took a deep look at Gao Jin. Gao Jin shrugged indifferently, took the red wine and left without talking to Stavin.
