Of course Yu Lihong would not have any conditions to negotiate with the United States. Qin Hai returned to his room and made a long-distance call to the country, directly to Ji Mingchu's office.
Qin Hai got to know Ji Mingchu because of the No. 98 steel matter. After Qin Hai intervened in the work of the 33rd Naval Institute, the research and development of No. 98 steel progressed smoothly and some phased results have been achieved. Ji Mingchu was very satisfied with this. In the past
for a period of time,
Ji Mingchu often asked his secretary to notify Qin Hai to sit in his office and chat with Qin Hai about equipment construction. Qin Hai's erudition was deeply appreciated by Ji Mingchu, and the two people's friendship became more and more profound.
Let’s talk about some things.
This time, when it comes to dealing with the United States, Qin Hai will naturally ask Ji Mingchu for instructions and listen to the veteran general’s opinions. After all, dealing with foreign troops is a relatively sensitive matter. If he does not say hello to the Chinese side in advance, I am afraid that
It will cause some trouble.
"Mr. Ji, there is such a thing that I want to report to you..." Qin Hai briefly introduced the contact between the United States and himself to Ji Mingchu, and finally said: "Look, can we provide them with the information?"
This kind of super filtration membrane, and if we want to provide it to them, what reciprocal return will they need to make?"
"Are you in France now?" Ji Mingchu asked.
"Yes, I'm still in Le Havre." Qin Hai said.
"Tell me your address in Le Havre." Ji Mingchu said.
"Address?" Qin Hai was a little confused, but since Ji Mingchu asked for it, he also reported the name of the hotel and room number. While he was speaking, he could hear another person repeating it in a low voice on the other end of the phone.
He was Ji Mingchu's secretary, because the name of the hotel here is spelled in English. The old general himself would definitely not be able to remember it.
"Okay, you go and do other things first, then call me in the evening." After Ji Mingchu wrote down the address, he ordered Qin Hai. Before Qin Hai could ask anything else, the other party had already hung up the phone.
At night? Qin Hai was a little confused, but then he thought about it. Maybe the old general had other things to do now and couldn't talk to him in detail, so he asked him to talk on the phone again at night. But, what time does night mean? Also,
What does the phone call at night have to do with his address in Le Havre? There is no way the old general would come to him in person, right?
Qin Hai's doubts were answered in the afternoon. Just before dinner, an off-road vehicle rushed from Paris to Le Havre and parked in front of the hotel where Qin Hai lived. Two Chinese people came from
After getting off the off-road vehicle, he carried two aluminum alloy boxes in his hands and went straight to Qin Hai's room.
"Excuse me, is this Comrade Qin Hai?" After knocking on the door, the leader asked Qin Hai. When he spoke, his face was expressionless, giving people a businesslike feeling.
"I am." Qin Hai said, "Excuse me, who are you?"
"My name is Zhang Tao. This is Mu Zheng, and we are from the Chinese Embassy in France. We are here to install the phone for you under the orders of Mr. Ji," the leader said.
"Pretending to be on the phone?" Qin Hai was stunned for a moment and then understood.
No wonder Ji Mingchu asked him to call him again at night. It turned out that it was not because Ji Mingchu had something to do, but because Qin Hai's method of making calls was inappropriate. When it came to military matters, Ji Mingchu couldn't call him on such an ordinary phone.
What the two embassy staff brought to China to discuss with Qin Hai was obviously a telephone with encryption function.
Sure enough, the two people walked in, and without saying a word, they removed the original phone in the hotel room and replaced it with a phone they brought. This phone looked ordinary on the surface. It was even more powerful than an ordinary phone.
It seemed crude. However, Zhang Tao told Qin Hai very clearly that this phone could encrypt the audio signal and no one could eavesdrop.
"Is it that serious?" Qin Hai said with a smile, "I won't be involved in any very confidential matters."
"I don't understand this. The order we received is to provide you with encrypted phone service." Zhang Tao said with a cool look on his face.
The two people not only sent an encrypted phone call to Qin Hai, but also used a set of unknown equipment to detect the inside and outside of Qin Hai's room. They were obviously checking whether there were surveillance or eavesdropping devices in the room. All inspections were completed.
Afterwards, Zhang Tao nodded to Qin Hai and said: "Comrade Qin Hai, you can use this phone now. We will wait outside the room."
"Okay, thank you." Qin Hai said, since the other party valued him so much, it was inconvenient for him to say anything more.
Zhang Tao and Mu Zheng exited Qin Hai's room. As they said, they did not walk away. Instead, they found two chairs and stood guard outside Qin Hai's door like door gods. Occasionally, they stayed in hotels.
When other people in the room walk by in the corridor, both people will stare at each other alertly until the other person is gone.
Qin Guanghai went to the room, picked up the encrypted phone, and dialed Ji Mingchu's number again. After Ji Mingchu picked up the phone, he laughed loudly before speaking: "What's up, Xiao Qin, don't you think it's a bit of a fuss?
?”
"Mr. Ji, I reflect on it and it's because I don't have enough awareness of safety and confidentiality." Qin Hai quickly admitted his mistake.
Ji Mingchu said: "It's not surprising. You have been working in the local area and do not understand the seriousness of the intelligence struggle. Although you are only talking about a super filter membrane, from a small to a large scale, it will still involve many national defense and security issues.
information, so you need to be careful.”
"I understand." Qin Hai said.
"Okay, now you can explain the cause and effect of the matter in detail." Ji Mingchu said.
This time, Qin Hai's introduction was much more detailed. Ji Mingchu listened and asked questions at the same time. Not only did he ask about the identity of Setzler and others, he also had a careful understanding of the performance of the super filtration membrane.
"This kind of super filtration membrane has very important applications in the military field." After hearing this, Ji Mingchu said, "Having this kind of super filtration membrane can improve the endurance of warships at sea and enhance the military's field survivability.
This kind of filter membrane is not only useful for the US military, but also has great significance for the modernization of our army."
"We ignored this problem and did not introduce this technology to the military in time." Qin Hai said apologetically. This was actually an oversight on his part. After developing the super filtration membrane, he has been thinking about the civilian field.
The needs of the military were not taken into account.
Ji Mingchu said in a slightly reproachful tone: "Xiao Qin, this kind of thing will never happen again. From now on, no matter what new technology your Daqin Group comes up with, you will have to file a case with the Science and Technology Commission. You can't think of any use.
Maybe the troops regard it as a treasure. Just like your super filtration membrane, in the end, it will bloom inside the wall but be fragrant outside the wall, but it is the foreign military who first noticed its usefulness."
Qin Hai could only continue to admit his mistake: "Yes, this is indeed our fault. We will definitely pay attention to it in the future."
Ji Mingchu had no intention of pursuing the matter further. After all, Qin Hai was not a member of the military and had no obligation to explain all his technology to the military. It was already a very good performance for Qin Hai to think of reporting to him at this time.
Compared with other private enterprises, it has a very positive attitude.
He changed the topic and said: "Xiao Qin, after I heard you talk about this matter this morning, I asked the comrades in the logistics department to learn about the situation in detail, and also got in touch with your Jintang Chemical Materials Company.
We obtained specific technical information. After a comprehensive analysis of the information, the Logistics Department concluded that this super filtration membrane has very important strategic value, and the United States should be determined to obtain it."
"So, can we provide this product to them?" Qin Hai asked.
"If you don't provide them with this product, can you imitate it with American technology?" Ji Mingchu asked.
Qin Haidao: "The technology we use is actually not sophisticated. It just converts flat filter membranes into hollow fibers. If there are any technical difficulties, that is, in the preparation of hollow fibers, we have some unique features, but it is not impossible.
Imitation. We have applied for a patent on this technology, and the main technical details are public. If the United States wants to imitate it, it will not be too difficult."
"In other words, if you don't sell it to them, they can make it themselves?" Ji Mingchu asked.
"Yes. Imitating our technology is patent infringement. But if it is used by the military, I guess they won't care about the infringement or not," Qin Hai said.
Ji Mingchu said: "This is also the conclusion reached by the Logistics Department. We believe that instead of trying to block the United States in vain, it is better to sell products to them openly and then use these technologies in exchange for some technologies that we are interested in. This will
For us, it is more advantageous.”
"What you think is exactly what I think." Qin Hai said, "The purpose of calling you is to find out what our military wants to exchange for. I want to use these as conditions to negotiate with the other party.
Carry out negotiations. However, if possible, it is best to invite comrades from the embassy to participate in this negotiation. As a private enterprise, our Daqin Group is not suitable to discuss cooperation on military projects with the other party."
"I understand." Ji Mingchu's mind was very clear. He understood what Qin Hai's difficulties were. He said: "I will arrange someone to take charge of the specific negotiation work. What you have to do is to communicate well between the two parties. Also
Yes, what happened this time is a new contribution made by your Daqin Group to the army, and the military will never forget your contribution."
"Haha, I am satisfied with Ji Lao's words." Qin Hai said with a smile. (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
