Zhang Hongbin saw Gao Jin ask this question, understood in his heart, and began to enter the bargaining stage.
"What do I want? Do I, a common man, dare to ask for conditions from your officials?"
Gao Jin said something unhappily, Zhang Hongbin showed a smile on his lips and said nothing, picked up the teacup and drank tea slowly.
I don't understand Gao Jin's words at all.
After dealing with Gao Jin for so many years, I have basically figured out Gao Jin's situation. If I don't say anything and let Gao Jin continue, Gao Jin will honestly change the topic to the right track.
Seeing Zhang Hongbin not talking and just drinking tea, Gao Jin also picked up the teacup and took a slow sip, then put down the teacup and made a decision in his heart.
"Brother Zhang, if you are serious about the morning market tomorrow, you will get a lot of benefits."
"As far as I know, there is a one-time award of five million euros, and then one million euros per year for ten years."
"I have put a lot of effort into this matter. It can be said that I take 80% of the credit."
"Well, I don't want more, you and Lao Qiao can just make up for my losses."
"The renewable resource system loses a lot of money. Let's adjust the annual basic garbage disposal fee to 50 million. After three years, we can increase the fee according to the incremental base we agreed on."
Gao Jin calmly explained his adjustment.
Zhang Hongbin looked at Gao Jin, looking at such a young face, and felt the urge to give Gao Jin a slap in his heart.
"In your heart, do you think I am a fool?"
"The adjustment base after three years will be an increase of 5% on the basis of the 30 million garbage disposal fee. 3,500% is 1.5 million, and 5% of 50 million is 2.5 million."
"You don't think I can't tell which of these two numbers is bigger and which is smaller!"
Zhang Hongbin stared at Gao Jin quite unhappily and said this.
"It's your fault"
"You started asking for a lot of money and only gave me a certificate. I will definitely make a reasonable counter-offer."
Gao Jin took it for granted that he said this, and his intention was very clear. It was you who resorted to tricks first, and I followed your standards.
Zhang Hongbin's face darkened, he took a deep breath to suppress his anger, and began to bargain with Gao Jin. He would never agree to 50% of 50 million.
Neither of them gave anything in vain. Gao Jin and Zhang Hongbin calculated the expenses of the enterprise, but Zhang Hongbin refuted them day by day. As a practical person, Zhang Hongbin knew very well how much the specific expenses of each link of the enterprise were.
Gao Jin felt uncomfortable. He didn't expect Zhang Hongbin to do his homework so well, so he thought about it for a while.
"Brother Zhang, I lose money on the 30 million yuan in garbage disposal fees every year. You must admit this. Don't tell me that I make money by selling recycled resources."
"You know very well that it will take several years to realize this. Now I am losing hundreds of millions every year. No one knows how many years it will take to recover the capital."
"My bottom line is a subsidy of 50 million yuan a year. I will never accept a subsidy of 30 million yuan. Even if you don't come to me today, I will call you in a few days to discuss this matter."
"As for the growth base after three years, we can cancel this and directly replace it with a specific amount, two million."
"In the future, it will be increased every two years, and each increase will be two million."
"how"
After Gao Jin finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Hongbin. Now let's see what Zhang Hongbin said. This price is the bottom line. He will never agree to a price lower than this.
Zhang Hongbin hummed and was about to speak, but Gao Jin waved his hand to stop Zhang Hongbin from speaking.
"Brother Zhang, I will never agree to a price lower than this. I'm not kidding."
"After the morning market certification, you can receive a bonus of one million euros from relevant United Nations departments every year, which is more than eight million euros converted into Chinese currency."
"Only give me two million, which is really not much money."
"I have invested so much that I have lost hundreds of millions every year in recent years. If I put these hundreds of millions in the bank for a year, the interest would be more than two million."
"If you still want to bargain with me because of this little money, the good things will belong to you and Lao Qiao, and the money lost will belong to me."
"That would be really boring."
Gao Jin added these words, and Zhang Hongbin began to think about it. After a while, he slowly nodded and agreed to Gao Jin's condition.
In the final analysis, Zhang Hongbin still doesn't know how powerful the Xingling Group's renewable resource system is. If he knew the specific data, Zhang Hongbin would definitely refuse to agree to this condition.
Now it seems that the city government has benefited. A few years later, there will be a day when Zhang Hongbin regrets it.
This is the result of information asymmetry.
"You must cooperate when the certification project team comes for certification." Zhang Hongbin looked at Gao Jin and said this. This matter must be communicated in advance and no mistakes can be made.
"No problem, as long as they don't check those confidential equipment, I will let them go." Gao Jin said this very grandly. Zhang Hongbin frowned and was not fooled.
"Confidential equipment, what is confidential equipment?"
“This term is too general”
Zhang Hongbin glanced at Gao Jin with disdain, "Don't play tricks on me, it's useless."
"Brother Zhang, the renewable resource system is unique to our Xingling Group. It is a unique technology in the world."
"Can you guarantee that there are no people proficient in equipment in those so-called certification groups?"
"If the construction secrets of some equipment are leaked, will you compensate me for this part of the loss?"
Gao Jin said this without politeness.
Once Rizao City starts applying for the certification of "Pollution-free Sustainable City", it will definitely cause an uproar around the world. Those who are interested can definitely see that this is a gold mine that will never be exhausted.
They will definitely try their best to steal technology.
Once they obtain the technology, they are fully capable of rolling it out in a different model. By then, the renewable resource system will no longer be exclusively owned by the Star Spirit Group.
It doesn’t matter if you have a technology patent, there are alternative technologies. You can completely bypass the patent by spending a little more money and adding some equipment.
The investment is nothing compared to the gain.
There will definitely be no shortage of companies that dare to take risks, and Gao Jin is definitely not willing to see a group of competitors emerge.
"Okay, we will coordinate this matter," Zhang Hongbin agreed.
Stealing technology in the name of inspection or certification has not happened before, but has happened many times.
Especially in the field of rice paper and traditional Chinese medicine, many companies in RB come to obtain technical standards in the name of technical exchanges, inspections, certifications, etc. and then go back to optimize them and apply for patent registration as their own.
In the early days of China's reform, although we were introducing technology, we secretly lost a lot of technology.
Once the big framework was reached, the remaining things became easier to handle. The atmosphere began to ease and the two continued to drink tea and chat.
"Brother Zhang, the certification time will be postponed for some time. The renewable resource system is still very unstable now." Gao Jin said calmly. Zhang Hongbin looked at Gao Jin curiously and wanted an explanation.
In Zhang Hongbin's view, the current renewable resource system is already a mature system, and it was possible to dispose of the city's garbage yesterday.
Why does Gao Jin still say that this system is unstable?
"I'm not kidding"
"The waste classification factory is a little more stable, but as for other branches, adjustments have just begun, and many have not even made a single adjustment."
"The entire system must be run at full capacity for a period of time to expose more problems, so that we can carry out better optimization and the system will mature."
"Although there are many problems exposed now, they are still far from reaching the peak period and have not reached the ideal state."
"Adjustments must be made, which is also the original intention of putting this system into operation in the morning market."
Gao Jin explained, Zhang Hongbin understood, nodded slowly and asked, "When is the time to adjust?"
"At least one month, the full-load operation time must be more than two weeks." Gao Jin gave an affirmative answer.
Gao Jin did not play any tricks this time. The entire system was running at full load for two weeks and everything was normal, which is when the adjustment was truly in place.
"Okay." Zhang Hongbin agreed immediately.
Certification and reputation are important, but they are not as important as truly solving the problem of urban waste.
The two chatted for a while, Zhang Hongbin said goodbye and left. Gao Jin sent Zhang Hongbin to the door to get in the car and left, then returned to the company with a smile on his face.
Call Zhou Ziru and ask him to come to his home with Guan Hongsheng to discuss anything.
When Zhang Hongbin left Gao Jin, he kept thinking about the process of talking to Gao Jin. This was a habit Zhang Hongbin developed in order to avoid being plotted by Gao Jin.
He knew that Gao Jin was not malicious in his calculations and was just doing it for fun, but this situation made Zhang Hongbin very unhappy.
Today's conversation went smoothly, but it also made Zhang Hongbin feel that something was wrong. Zhang Hongbin couldn't figure out what was wrong.
Rubbing his head, Zhang Hongbin suddenly felt that he was a little out of energy, especially when dealing with Gao Jin.
Gao Jin is a young man who is growing rapidly and entering the golden age of his life, but he is already on the decline. Thinking of this, Zhang Hongbin shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Everyone is the same. There is nothing we can do to face this kind of natural aging. All we have is the sadness of being powerless.
After returning to the compound, Zhang Hongbin went to Qiao Mingxian's office. Qiao Mingxian gave Zhang Hongbin a glass of water. The two sat down to talk, and Zhang Hongbin reported the matter truthfully.
"Lao Zhang, you did nothing wrong in this matter. If it were me, I would make the same decision."
"Gao Jin is right. This system must run at full capacity for two weeks before it is officially passed. It is important to be famous around the world, but it is even more important to solve our city's waste."
"I didn't expect this either. I'll call my superiors later to explain it."
Qiao Mingxian comforted Zhang Hongbin, saying that it didn't matter even if the Xingling Group gained some benefits. As long as the city's garbage could be solved, it was acceptable to pay more.
"Have you reported to your superiors?" Zhang Hongbin asked.
"Yes, I will definitely report such a big event to my superiors in advance. The superiors are very supportive of our approach and support us in being the first to apply for [Pollution-Free Sustainable Development City] certification."
