Chapter 508 The first encounter with the legendary figure

Xin Youbin is dismissive of the large-scale agricultural seed industry. In fact, the large-scale agricultural seed industry has also had its glory days.

Its full name is "Da Nong Seed Co., Ltd.", which is mainly engaged in the cultivation and sales of crop seeds. It once ranked first in the country in the market share of the seed industry, accounting for as high as 23%. It can be said that it has unlimited glory.

However, in the past ten years, due to the "diversification route" of the management, the main business of seeds has been abandoned, running real estate, hotels, and researching new bio-energy. As a result, all route layouts have failed, and the main business of seeds has fallen behind in research and development.

Its competitiveness dropped sharply, its performance continued to decline, and it was defeated by competitors such as "Xiaguo Seed Industry Co., Ltd." and "Dengfeng Plant Seed Industry Co., Ltd." and soon fell out of the top five in the country.

It was not until three years ago that new young management was replaced, and the new chairman and general manager Sangyi Jiang took over, that he would return to his main business. However, it was not until Da Nong Seed Industry finally dealt with the real estate, hotel, and new projects that suffered serious losses under his name.

The energy factory tried to concentrate the remaining funds to catch up, but it was too late. Its main seed business market had already been eaten away, and its market share fell directly below 10%. At present, it can only barely maintain about 8%.

Seeing that the company is about to fall into the abyss, Sangyijiang, the general manager of Da Nong Seed Industry, is worried that his hair will turn gray.

As the new chairman and general manager of Da Nong Seed Industry, Sangyijiang took over the baton from his father.

Different from ordinary second-generation rich people, Sangyijiang is an academic master. He studied in a prestigious foreign university and studied botany. He even had a plant laboratory of more than 20 people and was engaged in "balcony vegetable gardens".

It was not until his father's health failed that he had to give up the scientific research route and take up a management position.

It's a pity that the foundation of Da Nong's seed industry is too bad. Sangyijiang is a scientific researcher and is not good at business. After three years of hard work, he has been unable to make a difference and almost gave up.

But at this moment, he accidentally received news from the industry that a company called "Ling Ning Technology" had six patented technologies related to new tomatoes. The superiors seemed to attach great importance to it. Even Lu Xinping, the secretary of the big leader, personally

He stepped in and made recommendations to three leading large-scale seed companies—but because Da Nong Seed Co., Ltd. had slipped to seventh place in the country, it was not qualified to receive a phone recommendation from Mr. Lu.

Sangyijiang spent a lot of effort to find the introduction books of these six patents, and was soon surprised to find that the patentees actually wrote "Qin Ke" and "Ning Qingyun"!

Sangyijiang knew these two mathematical students who were too young but still very popular on the Internet, because his daughter just entered the sixth grade of elementary school this year, and she watched the set of "Kitten Lemon" at home every day.

"A Wonderful Mathematics Journey with the Puppy Keke", I liked it so much that I finished teaching myself the mathematics knowledge of the first and second grades of junior high school early.

What impressed Sang Yijiang most was the price of just over 10 yuan per copy of that set of books. There was also a line on the back cover: "At the request of the authors of this book, Qin Ke and Ning Qingjun, in order to promote mathematics learning, the price of this book is

It will not exceed half of the latest version of junior high school mathematics textbooks."

It was because of this line of words that Sang Yijiang had a good impression of Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun. He felt that the two children had feelings and ideals. For this reason, he even changed the Windows operating system on his computer to the Lime operating system.

I found that this operating system is not only free to download and use, but also very easy to use.

Since then, Sangyijiang has paid attention to these two talented students from time to time, and often uses these two children as examples to educate his own daughters.

Unexpectedly... I actually met them again.

Although they are only very distant intersections.

Sangyijiang once again took a closer look at the patent profile in his hand. They were about five new types of tomato seed hybrid breeding technology and a lower-cost large-scale seed production technology.

As a doctoral student in botany, Sangyijiang is not specialized in hybrid breeding, but he still has a keen eye.

"Type I tomatoes have such low soil fertility requirements? Can they still grow and bear fruit in poor soil with a certain degree of salinity? Type II tomatoes are tomatoes from normal soil, but they can bear fruit in just two months.

The rate is even higher than that of the current market variety, but the sugar content is reduced by 50%, the taste is soft, and the lycopene content is increased by 20%. It is suitable for people who need to control sugar intake and pursue health and slimming."

The more I looked at Sangyijiang, the more surprised I became, especially the IV tomato seeds, which can convert their branching ability into upward climbing growth ability. They are especially suitable for planting on balconies with anti-theft nets. They are also water-resistant, drought-resistant, sun-resistant and cold-resistant, and are easy to grow.

As long as you water it regularly and add a few drops of nutrient solution, it will continue to grow and produce beautiful and delicious little red fruits.

This was very consistent with the "balcony vegetable garden" direction he had studied before! He felt that it had great potential.

Type V is equally amazing. This is a tomato seed that can grow in water. It only needs nutrient solution and a climbing frame to grow and develop. It is very suitable for large-scale planting in greenhouses. Its biggest feature is that the fruit is extremely large. At least

It can weigh half a catty.

The sixth patent is for low-cost large-scale seed production. It is said that it can reduce the cost to about 70% of the average industry cost.

Is the effect of such six patented technologies a bit too exaggerated? Is it really the result of Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun?

Sang Yijiang even doubted whether the patent description was too exaggerated - this is also a common method in patents. Patented technology developed under laboratory conditions will be discounted when it is finally implemented in actual promotion and application.

, after all, it is impossible to repeat an experiment in patent review, and can only review patent application materials.

Sangyijiang himself was engaged in scientific research, and he knew this very well. Some shameless patented technologies even dared to inflate the data ten times or even completely falsify it. Of course, such patents were specially designed to fool laymen.

The only flaw in these patent introductions is the lack of descriptions and data on insect resistance and herbicide resistance properties. This is very important data for seed industry companies, and even a decisive factor, because these

The indicators will directly affect the actual income of farmers after actual planting and the probability of subsequent repurchase.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Considering the character of Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun, Sangyijiang decided to believe in the authenticity of these six patented technologies. As for insect resistance and herbicide resistance,

For data on characteristics, just ask Qingning Technology directly.

Sangyijiang was about to send someone to contact Qing Ning Technology for discussion, but he received new news, saying that this "Qing Ning Technology" was very strange. Before discussing patent authorization, the seed industry company must agree to a prerequisite, that is, it must agree.

The clause that “the price of the final seeds cannot exceed the average selling price of tomato seeds on the current market”.

It is precisely because of such terms that several leading seed companies cannot accept them, so the negotiations have almost stalled.

However, Sangyijiang remembered the price description at the back of the set of teaching aids, and suddenly realized that these were the terms set by the two children if they really wanted to promote these new seeds and benefit farmers.

Once he understood this, Sangyijiang was almost certain that these patented technologies must have been developed by Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun, and most of them were real and effective technologies.

As for how incredible it is that two freshman students came up with such a powerful patent? Is it even more incredible than them alone writing the Lime operating system that is currently popular all over the country?

Sang Yijiang quickly made a decision. He wanted to interview Qing Ning Technology in person to show his sincerity, and he felt that the terms were acceptable.

He believes in the market potential of these five new types of seeds. By making small profits but quick turnover, the income may not be bad.

What's more, the situation in the large-scale seed industry has deteriorated to such an extent. Apart from putting all your hopes on these five new tomato seeds, is there any other way out?

Sangyi Jiang made a prompt decision and quickly formed a business backbone. He personally led the team and went to the Beijing branch of Qing Ning Technology to conduct patent business negotiations...



Zhou Shutao was very surprised that Sang Yijiang readily agreed to the price terms. Sang Yijiang took out the book "Kitten Lemon and Puppy Ke Ke's Wonderful Mathematical Journey" that he had prepared long ago and pointed to the line on the back cover.

smiled and said:

"There is nothing surprising. This is exactly how Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun do things. We will also print a similar paragraph on the outer packaging of the seeds, such as 'Qin Ke, Ning Qing, the inventor of the patented technology'

Junzhi requires that in order to promote new types of seeds and increase farmers' income, the selling price of this model of seeds will not exceed the average selling price of tomato seeds on the current market."

These words immediately made Zhou Shutao feel good about him, and the two chatted happily. When Sangyijiang asked about key aspects such as insect resistance and herbicide resistance, Zhou Shutao had already obtained Qin Ke’s permission in advance and said with a smile

: "If Mr. Sang is interested, why not go directly to our lime plant cultivation laboratory to visit? Then you will be able to see the data intuitively."

Sangyijiang was naturally happy, and the group drove to the lime plant cultivation laboratory in the suburbs.

Additional security personnel have been deployed outside the laboratory.

Zhou Shutao's work efficiency is still very high. A few days ago, he completed the acquisition of full control of a security service company and a property company, and renamed them "Qing Ning Security Service Co., Ltd." and "Qing Ning Property Service Co., Ltd." respectively.

, the scale is not large, each company only has about twenty or thirty people, but it does not serve external parties and only serves "Qing Ning Technology" itself, which is more than enough.

"Qing Ning Technology" has a lot of money. The first thing after the acquisition was completed was to increase wages and provide all five insurances and one housing fund. This made the employees of the two small companies cheer and morale greatly increased. There was almost no loss of personnel, and the business developed quickly.

, At present, the security, cleaning, water and electricity maintenance and other tasks of Qing Ning Technology itself have been taken over by these two small companies.

Sangyijiang saw that although the laboratory was a bit small, everyone from the security guards to the scientific researchers were in good spirits. The laboratory was also clean and tidy, and the procedures were complete. There were no shortage of dressing and disinfection steps when entering the laboratory, especially for experiments.

The person in charge of the office, Wei Xueming, has a very high level of professionalism. He couldn't help but secretly nod his head, and his confidence in the six patents increased by two points.

Only when he saw the five new tomato seed planting sites displayed by Wei Xueming and the relevant experimental data did Sangyijiang realize that he had really found a treasure!

The data in the patent are not exaggerated in the slightest, they are completely real experimental data, and the reason why insect resistance and herbicide resistance are not recorded is simple - because it is not necessary.

These five new types of tomato seeds can actually be "resistant" or "non-selective" to common pests of tomatoes in summer!

As for phytotoxicity, using the herbicides developed by Lime Technology will basically not cause phytotoxicity to the plants.

These two points alone are enough to destroy all varieties of tomatoes on the market in seconds!

On the same day, Sangyijiang signed a patent licensing agreement with Qingning Technology. With a licensing fee of 120 million plus a share fee of 8% of actual seed sales

, the time limit is five years, and after five years, Da Nong Seed Industry can give priority to renewing the contract. During this period, Lime Technology will be responsible for technical guidance and technical support.

Because the current cash flow of Da Nong Seed Industry is somewhat tight, the final licensing fee of 120 million will be paid in three years.

“A pleasure to work with.”

The photo of Zhou Shutao and Sang Yijiang smiling and shaking hands was quickly posted on the homepage of the official website of Da Nong Seed Industry.

There are basically not many secrets in the industry. Within a few days, the news that Da Nong Seed Industry and Qing Ning Technology had reached a cooperation reached the ears of most seed industry companies.

Almost all of these seed industry companies laughed. There were not a few people who thought that the large-scale agricultural seed industry was sick and rushed to seek medical treatment. Many people were waiting to see the joke of the large-scale agricultural seed industry. Of course, more people were waiting for the complete failure of the large-scale agricultural seed industry.

Later, it was split and acquired...



Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun didn't pay much attention to the company's affairs. They would only read the company's reports regularly to understand the situation and set directions, but they never intervened in specific affairs, such as which company the patent was licensed to this time, and the acquisition.

They don't care about the original names of the security company and property management company.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Don’t be suspicious of others when you employ them. Zhou Shutao’s character and ability have gained their trust. What’s more, finance and personnel are independent and are only responsible to them, forming a

Very good power checks and balances structure.

In addition, there is also a staff assistant Fang Yongtang, who is equivalent to an "imperial envoy". He has the right to raise questions about the company's operations and report to Qin Ke and Qin Ke. This also ensures that Qing Ning Technology is in the hands of Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun.

It has been three days since the two arrived at the University of California, Berkeley, during which they both took the stage to give reports.

The theme of Ning Qingyun's report this time was "Hypergeometric Mapping Method of Green Lemon Number Theory", while Qin Ke reported "Qin's Hypothesis" and "Three Sets of Expressions of Riemann Hypothesis", which attracted thunderous applause from the audience.

.

This report meeting also gave the two of them a lot of insights. The biggest gain was probably that they finally met the rumored "genius among mathematical geniuses", the "Mozart of mathematics", a representative of the Mesozoic generation of Chinese mathematicians.

Character, Professor Tao.

Professor Tao is an Australian. He has been a well-known mathematical genius since he was a child. He was awarded the title of full professor at Princeton University at the age of 21. He won the Fields Medal at the age of 31 and also won the Breakthrough Prize in Mathematics.

Manukin Award and MacArthur Genius Grant, currently a professor of mathematics and doctoral supervisor at the University of California, Los Angeles.

His life is like a mess. He knows almost all fields of theoretical mathematics and has made many achievements in applied mathematics. He can be called a legend.

Coincidentally, Qin Ke had not been able to meet the famous Professor Tao when he went abroad to participate in mathematics academic lectures twice before. It was not until this mid-year lecture of the American Mathematical Society that he had the opportunity to meet him.

This encounter was a bit dramatic.
