Chapter 8 Planning for the Next Two Years

  Looking at the growing number of collections and recommendation votes is the greatest joy for Cavalrymen. Can't everyone make Cavalrymen a little happier?

  Sun Zesheng walked up to the security guard and pulled out his student ID, "Brother, this is my student ID, I'm not a bad person, just something came up and I want to find your business department."

  The security guard took a look at Sun Zesheng's student ID, "What are you doing here looking for the business department? If you want to buy our company's products, you can go to Computer City or Zhonghua North Street. Why come here? We don't do retail business here, it's all B2B and for factories and mines."

  "Big brother, I'm not here to buy your company's products, but rather to ask you to help me process some things. Don't worry, I'll pay the processing fee in full and won't drag my feet. Can you please help me call the sales department and ask if they're willing to take on my order?"

  Sun Zesheng spoke while approaching the security guard, using his body to block the camera at the factory entrance. He quickly stuffed a pack of mid-range cigarettes he had just bought into the guard's hand, "Brother, help me out."

  The security guard took a bribe and became more talkative. "You wait outside, I'll make a call to ask about it."

  Sun Zesheng stood outside the security room, waiting. The security guard went inside to make a call. After a while, the security guard held the receiver and stuck his head out of the window again. "That student, the business department said it's okay to take on commissioned work, but our fees here aren't cheap. We don't accept jobs that are less than 10,000 yuan."

  Sun Zesheng nodded repeatedly.

  The security guard hung up his head again and soon hung up the phone. "You student, wait for it. The business department will have someone come out soon."

  Sun Zesheng waited for about ten minutes, and a man in his thirties walked out of the factory, wearing a casual outfit that was all domestic brand names, worth several hundred yuan. From what he wore, he didn't look like a big shot from the business department.

  He didn't even introduce himself and went straight to the point, "Is it you who wants our factory to process something for you?"

  Sun Zesheng nodded and took out the bound drawings, "Yes, it's this one."

  He took it over, flipped through it simply, and the more he looked at it, the more surprised he became. "What is this thing? If we follow your requirements and use only the best materials, just for this one item, the material cost alone would be at least 20,000 to 30,000 yuan. Do you have that much money?"

  Sun Zesheng smiled and said confidently, "As long as your company has the technical strength to process it, and can deliver on time, the processing fee is not a problem. If you don't trust me, after signing the contract, I can pay half of the deposit."

  "Our factory's technical strength, you don't need to doubt. The former State Council Vice Premier and the current number one leader have both visited our factory for inspection. In all of South Hebei, if we can't process something, other factories won't be able to do it either." The business representative said with great confidence.

  "That's the best," said Sun Zesheng, "Shall we sign a contract for processing on behalf of others?"

  The salesman nodded, "Contract, of course, we need to sign. But before signing, we need to calculate the processing cost and then calculate the fee for processing on your behalf. Your surname is Sun, right? Please follow me to the office for a while."

  Sun Zesheng followed the salesperson into the factory, and the salesperson handed him a bottle of chilled mineral water. Then, carrying the drawings Sun Zesheng had brought, he went to find someone to calculate the cost.

  Sun Zesheng waited for more than half an hour before the salesperson brought over a draft subcontracting agreement, with a subcontracting fee of 50,000 yuan and a processing time of one week.

  The tens of thousands that the salesperson just mentioned is only an estimate and not very accurate. Moreover, this time also includes processing fees. Of course, this is also because there is only one unit for outsourcing processing, if the quantity is large, many costs can be spread out, and the cost per instrument will not be so high.

  Sun Zesheng had no objection to the processing fee, but was not very satisfied with the time of up to seven days. He shook his head, "Within three days, I want to get the finished product. How about this, I'll add another 10,000 yuan, and consider it overtime pay."

  "I need to ask the leader for instructions." The business personnel made a phone call in front of Sun Zesheng, consulted with the head of the business department, and after getting the head's consent, reprinted a copy of the contract.

  Sun Zesheng and the business personnel signed their names on the contract respectively, and stamped the factory's seal. Afterwards, the business personnel called an accountant from the finance office, who followed Sun Zesheng to a nearby bank, withdrew 30,000 yuan, as the deposit for this processing trade.

  During the three days waiting for the instrument to be processed, Sun Zesheng did not idle. He used Tianji Xing 3000 to collect news from various channels, hoping to find a suitable buyer.

  Sun Zesheng was just a third-year university student, and his access to information was very limited. Many messages were not searchable on the internet. Moreover, although he was in Jinnan City, which is a prefecture-level city, it can only be considered a third-tier city domestically. Few well-known domestic and foreign enterprises have settled in Jinnan City, and even if they do, they are mostly just branch factories or branch companies.

  Of course, if Sun Zesheng is willing to use Tianji Xing 3000 to invade the servers of various companies or units to find the required intelligence, it can still be done, and it can even be said that it is an easy task.

  However, Sun Zesheng had his own principles. There were some things that he wouldn't do unless absolutely necessary or unavoidable. It wasn't that he didn't believe in the capabilities of Tianji Xing 3000, but rather that he just didn't have a habit of doing such things.

  He would never resort to improper means to get things which he could obtain through normal channels.

  The more one walks a crooked path, the more one's heart will be unrighteous. When the heart is not righteous, it is easy to take the wrong road and do wrong things, leaving behind handles for others to grasp.

  Sun Zesheng never thought that relying on his wisdom plus the assistance of Tianji Star 3000, he could deceive the whole world. When it's time to be cautious and careful, one should still pay special attention.

  Heaven gave him a chance to relive, he must cherish it and not repeat the mistakes of his past life. In this life, he not only wants to live a wonderful life but also a happy and peaceful one.

  Besides, Sun Zesheng was not in a hurry, he was still young, only twenty years old, and had plenty of time to use. There was no need to use the Tianji Xing 3000 to intrude into those companies' servers to fight for those few short days.

  When Sun Zesheng couldn't find the information he wanted on the internet, newspapers or magazines, he thought for a moment and decided not to wait passively for opportunities to come knocking, but instead took the initiative.

  He used Tianji Star 3000 to create a straightforward introduction of the instruments he wanted to sell, including technical data and demonstration animations, then packaged them and sent them to the email inboxes of dozens of CEOs, presidents, and chief executives of domestic home appliance manufacturers, IT manufacturers, and medical device manufacturers.

  Sun Zesheng first made a brief self-introduction, saying that he was passionate about inventing and creating. This device was an idea he had in high school, and after two years of researching and studying at university, he finally developed it.

  He now feels that his instrument is relatively mature and wants to convert it into a product and push it to the market. However, considering his limited personal ability, he wants to cooperate with your company.

  The mode of cooperation is not limited. The hardware design, operating system and other aspects of the instrument can be fully or partially acquired, or a joint venture company can be established for joint operation.

  Sun Zesheng also emphasized that if you want to cooperate, you must send someone to Jinan City before August 15th to conduct specific negotiation matters. No delay is allowed.

  After sending out the email, things were no longer under his control. Maybe someone would take his sales letter seriously, but he guessed that most of the companies that received the letter would treat his self-recommendation as spam and not even bother to take a look.

  This is also an inevitable thing, Sun Zesheng has no reputation at all, and no one will take the words of this undergraduate who has not yet graduated seriously. This is a social norm. What Sun Zesheng hopes for is that his way of casting a wide net can help him catch one or two big fish, which would be enough.

  At this time, there was still about half a month until August 15th. Sun Zesheng didn't idle around, he spent his time getting familiar with the current era except for going to the enterprise that accepted his commission on the agreed date and taking back the instrument.

  Every day, he rides his bike, goes out for a stroll, walks around the mall, walks around the supermarket, walks around the computer city, goes to the airport, and watches trains at the train station, high-speed rail station, standing on the overpass watching the hustle and bustle of cars.

  Every time he walked to a place, he would stop for a long time, looking at the familiar or unfamiliar things. In this way, he was trying to gradually forget his past life that had brought him glory, loss and pain, slowly but firmly integrating into his current life.

  This method is still effective. After several days, the reincarnated double Ph.D. became more and more aware of being a third-year university student.

  At this moment, Sun Zesheng does not have the mentality of "ten thousand years is too long, only fighting for dawn". At present, his strength is too weak, and taking out an instrument would be very eye-catching. As for other advanced technologies, he will not take them out together with the unsold instruments, and he plans to wait until there is a suitable opportunity in the future before carefully selecting what to bring out.

  During his recovery at home, Sun Zesheng had already made a relatively detailed plan for the path he would take in his last two years of university.

  First, university studies must be completed and completed beautifully. In this regard, Sun Zesheng set two goals for himself: one is that each subject's grades must be excellent, and the other is that when graduating from university, he strives to obtain an outstanding graduate certificate.

  Secondly, while completing his studies, he should set up a company and select some of the less important scientific technologies he has mastered to turn them into real products and accumulate wealth.

  The last one is that while starting a company, try every means to gather talents, establish personal connections and set up a network of relationships. If possible, establish some kind of relationship with people in official positions.
