Chapter 148 Strategic Products
On Monday, April 6, the patent supermarket was just launched for a day.
As soon as Zhou Yu arrived at the company, he saw a message from Huang Ke.
"Mr. Zhou, the water purification technology we launched in the patent supermarket, the Ministry of Commerce sent us a letter this morning asking us to remove this technology as soon as possible. They will send someone to our company in person to negotiate with us to handle this technology.
I have blocked this technology now and are waiting for the visiting of the Ministry of Commerce. Zhou, you will receive the people from the Ministry of Commerce, or I will receive the people from the Ministry of Commerce."
Zhou Yu thought that he was from the Ministry of Commerce, not from the industrial and commercial department, and he was mainly in charge of trade, especially foreign trade.
He immediately replied to Huang Ke and informed him that he would come to receive the people from the Ministry of Commerce.
At the same time, inform the company's front desk, confirm the identity of the person coming from the Ministry of Commerce, and take them to their office.
Zhou Yu was waiting in the office for a short time and received a notice from the front desk that the person sent by the Ministry of Commerce had arrived at Xinghuo Technology Company.
He glanced at the time and it was only 9:00 am now. People from the Ministry of Commerce should have been sent here as soon as they started work.
The two people sent by the Ministry of Commerce were soon taken to Zhou Yu's office by the front desk customer service.
Zhou Yu looked at them and dressed in a standard civil servant, one of them should be the leader and the other was his subordinate.
The person who looked like a leader introduced himself: "I am Liu Yi, Director of the General Office of the Ministry of Commerce."
Zhou Yu stood up and said politely: "Director Liu, please sit down. I don't know if you come to our company. If you have anything to discuss with our company."
Liu Yi also said very politely: "Mr. Zhou, our department leaders have been paying great attention since your company released water purification technology yesterday. Today, the leaders of multiple departments exchanged opinions.
They reached an agreement and hope that your company will carefully consider the water storage technology and try not to make this technology too popular."
Zhou Yu waved his hand repeatedly and declined: "This is impossible. This is a public welfare technology we developed. It can have too much impact and can directly change our domestic water resources pattern.
Even if your Ministry of Commerce wants to ban it, the relevant leaders of the State Council will never agree."
Liu Yi still kept a smile and said politely: "Mr. Zhou, you misunderstood my meaning.
I mean, don’t let this technical threshold be too low, any company can buy it on the market.
This technology is definitely a far-reaching technology in China. Its impact on a metropolis like Yanjing is more important than the South-to-North Water Diversion. We cannot prohibit this technology from being used in China.
I mean your company should have one or two companies to take charge of the overseas market.”
Zhou Yu narrowed his eyes and asked, "What you mean is that your Ministry of Commerce wants to designate a company to undertake our water purification technology."
Zhou Yu is very familiar with some bureaucratic styles. He is from Liao Province and his bureaucratic style is definitely one of the top five in the country.
In other places, investment promotion is to attract golden roosters to lay eggs, and bureaucrats and chickens share eggs with them. His hometown is a chicken that was tricked by sweet words, and he closed the door and killed the chicken and stewed the soup.
Bureaucrats are also growing themselves and will not blatantly ask for bribes.
After a certain company is established, it usually recommends talents to him. Since it is a talent, it must be recruited higher than the market price.
When purchasing a company, you must choose a designated company. The designated company's products are several times the market price, which of course is of good quality.
Zhou Yu did not expect that he encountered such a thing in Yanjing. Generally speaking, the better the economic development, the more transparent the government affairs will be.
Liu Yi's face was a little pale and he hurriedly explained: "Mr. Zhou, you misunderstood what I mean. It's not that we designate the company, but that you are open to bidding. But I hope your company will try to choose a state-owned enterprise so that we can coordinate some things."
Zhou Yu knew that he misunderstood them. Although some state-owned enterprises are zombie enterprises, they give Xinghuo Technology the opportunity to choose independently. No matter how stupid Zhou Yu is, he will not pick such companies, let alone Xinghuo Technology has a huge think tank.
"Director Liu, you should talk openly and honestly. Such ambiguousness can easily lead to misunderstandings." Zhou Yu tightened his face and said in a slightly unpolite tone.
Liu Yi sighed and said helplessly: "Mr. Zhou, I will tell you a story first so that you can understand what I mean."
"Ah????????????????????????????????????????? " " "Ah???. This movement is a huge color revolution, which has indirectly caused the rise of the extreme terrorist forces of I5I5."
"Behind this movement is entirely driven by the United States. In addition to promoting online, supporting the opposition and hiring Blackwater companies to make trouble.
They have a huge killer weapon, that is, the United States' exported food prices increased by 8 cents at that time. The United States is the world's largest grain exporter. The grain prices are extremely guiding worldwide, which directly increased the food prices in relevant countries in the Middle East by 50%.
You should know that there are absolutely destitute people in cities in these countries and cities, living in slums.
They had barely survived, and after the price of food increased, they could not survive at all. Someone provided food, and of course they acted as the organizers behind them."
When Zhou Yu heard the story told by Liu Yi, he fully understood what Liu Yi meant.
"Director Liu, you mean our water purification technology. It is also a strategic product in foreign countries, just like grain," Zhou Yu said in a very affirmative tone.
"Mr. Zhou, of course, this is true. Just like a country with shortage of food, a slight fluctuation in grain prices can make the whole society unstable.
If it weren't for the efforts of Mr. Yuan Longping and related scientists, we wouldn't know what China is like now.
In a water-scarce country, mastering the output and price of fresh water will definitely affect the country's basic national policies." Liu Yi nodded and said.
"Director Liu, since this technology is so important, I can give it to the state for operation." Zhou Yu suggested.
Zhou Yu knew that water purification technology was really handed over to the country, and the benefits he received would definitely exceed the value of water purification technology.
After all, the country and the company look at things differently. What he sees is the benefits brought by this technology, and what the country hopes to see is the impact of this technology.
Liu Yi shook his head and said, "Mr. Zhou, it is better to master this technology among the people. Our country believes in the five basic principles, and some things are more flexible when doing them in enterprises.
If Mr. Zhou really wants to help the country achieve its goals, you only need to authorize this technology to state-owned enterprises at its due price.
Mr. Zhou, the quality of the water-permeable membrane technology is somewhat poor, it would be great if it could last for one year."
"Director Liu, please rest assured that our Spark Technology is a "responsible enterprise" designated by the leader. I did not realize the special value of water purification technology at first. Since I understand its extraordinary role, I will definitely cooperate with the actions of relevant departments."
Zhou Yu immediately agreed that this matter was a slight effort and there was no need to object because of some interests.
After he sent away Director Liu from the Ministry of Commerce, he asked Xiaomi to search for relevant information carefully. The real information was far beyond people's imagination. Any commodity could be used as a weapon, let alone food and water that is indispensable for people's lives.
After thinking for a long time, Zhou Yu sent a message to Gou Fugui.
Water purification technology is authorized to conduct full competition in China. It is authorized to a large-scale water plant and can be authorized by multiple authorizations.
The overseas market of water purification technology is only handed over to large central enterprises with foreign trade capabilities, and the three-year life of water-permeable membrane is changed to one year.
Gou Fugui soon made a public bid, and the water purification technology was competed by many companies, and many large domestic water companies obtained this technology.
The only foreign trader was bid by Poly Technology.
Poly Technology is a military-industrial and foreign trade enterprise and also has general foreign trade product qualifications. They export fire tanks, fire rockets and other things.
