"Do you need me to hold your hand to sign?" Deputy Director Alden's voice was not loud, but it was full of unquestionable meaning.

"Okay, okay...I'll sign."

Johnson finally signed Johnson, the seven letters he had written countless times in his life. At the moment of signing, Alden had already pulled out two documents from him and said coldly: "You can leave, Johnson. Remember to transfer your reputation compensation to Shanping County Fertilizer Factory and Mr. Zhong Bai to their accounts within two days, otherwise I don't need to say more about the consequences, right? In addition, go to the Finance Office to collect your last consultation fee this year, and then you will have no relationship with our Swiss Patent Office."

"I see."

Johnson, who was ashamed, dragged his staggering steps away from the conference room, and Alden breathed a sigh of relief and said to the group of people sitting opposite him: "Director Lv, today's matter has finally been resolved. I originally said that the subsequent patent transfer fee would be negotiated within one day, but now it seems that time is not enough. Let's continue tomorrow, but no matter what, I regret today's matters. This is also a mistake in our Swiss Patent Office. I hope you don't mind."

"Since you dismissed Johnson, he also apologized, and he also compensated Shanping County Fertilizer Factory and Mr. Zhong Bai for their remarks just now, then we will not continue to pursue this matter." Lu Xudong nodded and said, "After all, this is just his personal behavior. It is not necessary to rise to the national height, and we will not expand it. After all, this time we came to Switzerland thousands of miles away, just to conduct a successful cooperation with the Swiss Patent Office to play a demonstration role and establish a good foundation for cooperation. In the future, more Chinese patents will be registered with you, right?"

"Yes." Alden dared not say anything at all: "Today we have been busy all day, and we get up early in the morning to take the bus. Why not let me come forward to personally invite everyone to taste Bern's food..."

As soon as his words were translated, everyone immediately began to laugh and agreed happily!

The dinner that night was more hearty than the one I had in Geneva yesterday, which was enough to show the sincerity of the Deputy Director.

The atmosphere of the conversation between everyone was much more frank and no longer hiding each other. After all, the first step of cooperation has been successful now, so there is naturally no hostility. Although we may have to compete for specific distribution tomorrow, we are no longer acquaintance, and we all understand each other's sincerity in trying to do this, so the atmosphere naturally becomes harmonious.

As expected, Alden chose to get himself drunk again, and then be dragged away by Bridget, which even made Zhong Bai wonder if this action was deliberately trying to end the dinner early?

With Zhong Bai's persistence and unremitting struggle, today's Johnson smear incident was successfully resolved, and the result was also satisfactory.

After returning to the hotel, Lu Xudong specially called Zhong Bai to his room alone and said he wanted to talk to him.

"Xiao Zhong, sit, there is water on the table." Lu Xudong was obviously much more relaxed today than yesterday's appearance, and his tone became softer: "No wonder Director Sun said you are a treasure. I think you are not just a treasure, but also a treasure! Today, this matter can be properly handled, and you account for at least 90% of the credit!"

"Director Lu praised it, how could I afford it?" Zhong Bai waved his hand and said, "If it weren't for the fact that Johnson was stubborn and wouldn't shed tears without seeing the coffin, I wouldn't want to chase such a prejudiced engineer. But as long as he dares to speak to our country, it wouldn't work!"

"Well, right, we must remember to maintain the dignity of the motherland at any time when we are abroad. This is the bottom line and I have always insisted on it." Lu Xudong took a sip of tea and said, "You proposed the honorary compensation at that time. At the beginning, when I heard that the number was so large, I had to divide it into two parts for the factory and for yourself. I thought Johnson would not agree even if he beat him to death, but he didn't expect that he actually agreed?"

Zhong Bai smiled and explained: "Director Lu, this is the actual situation where foreigners also have foreigners. In Western countries, they value personal credibility very seriously. As long as he dares to disagree, after we expose this matter, he will not be able to keep the job hired by the Swiss Patent Office, and he will never want to take the job as a professional engineer in the future. I think Johnson should be in his fifties, so he must have a rhythm of having a lower class. As long as he doesn't want to let his family live a lonely life for the rest of his life, there is no second way to go except to agree to my compensation requirements."

Lu Xudong smiled and said, "Haha, it's pretty comprehensive, it's good, but I want to announce the regulations here."

"What regulations?" Zhong Bai was stunned for a moment.

"Johnson compensates you the 10,000 Swiss francs of the Shanping County Fertilizer Factory, of course, to their accounts in full." Lu Xudong paused and said, "But the 1,000 Swiss francs he compensates you for your personal compensation. According to regulations, 50% of the income obtained by those who go abroad during their trip to France during their trip to the country, and 50% of them must be handed over to the country and 50% of them. Therefore, after the two thousand Swiss francs are received, you can only get 500 after the account is received. The remaining 500 must be handed over to Secretary Wu Xiaoping, and he will hand over to the foreign affairs department after he returns to China."

"Ah??There is still this regulation?" Zhong Bai immediately smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know that it has been several years of reform and opening up, and it will be paid... Then OK, just pay it if you pay it."

"Huh? Why do you feel that you don't feel so painful?" Lu Xudong also joked with Zhong Bai: "Five hundred Swiss francs, which can be converted into 3,500 RMB, which is worth my salary for one and a half years. Why don't you even complain?"

Of course, what Lu Xudong didn't know was that although these 500 Swiss francs were indeed not a small amount of money for a young man in a small factory who had just started working, Zhong Bai was not an ordinary young man in a small factory!

Not to mention how much proportion the individual patent fees will be divided in the future. Even if the patent fees are not included in the income, 30% of the profits of Yu Dongfeng's toad mirror business are flowing in every day. Of course, Zhong Bai will not violate national regulations for the sake of this small profit in front of him.

So Zhong Bai said disregardly: "What I deserve is, of course I have to earn. What should I give to the country, so I should give to the country. What should I complain about? Anyway, our country urgently needs foreign exchange now. Although these 500 Swiss francs are small, it is considered that I have made contributions to the country's foreign exchange, haha."

Hearing Zhong Bai's open answer, Lu Xudong quietly praised him in his heart.

This young man was calm and unhappy when encountering urgent matters, handled them politely and concisely, knew a few foreign languages, and knew how to patent technology. He also knew that national interests were the first priority. He was really a talented person to put him in Shanping County Fertilizer Factory...

No, after going back to this inspection, you must find a way to get Zhong Bai to the province!

Seeing Zhong Bai leave his room, Lu Xudong made up his mind secretly. No matter what this kid has personally thoughts, such a talent that is rare in a century cannot be allowed to waste his time on a small county fertilizer factory, and there are still many tasks waiting for him to do!
Chapter completed!
