Every Chinese knows that foreigners are the best money to make. When selling tickets at tourist sites, they will ask for a lion when they meet foreigners, let alone scholars.

And the 500,000 US dollars is also unparalleled in shock to the Chinese people.

In this era when one thousand dollars can rampant in the four or nine cities, let alone 500,000 dollars, just one percent of the 500,000 dollars, or 5,000 dollars, is enough to make people crawl.

A professor from a local college has not been able to use 10,000 yuan in total cash wages for the past ten years. As for US dollars, professors from some universities may handle it, but it is still quite difficult to do so.

Today's domestic civil servants look at the dollar much tighter than their belts.

Everyone in the Chinese delegation stared at Yang Rui, thinking about the significance of $500,000.

If you use it to buy a house, a dilapidated courtyard house in Beijing costs about 8,000 yuan, and a neat standard courtyard house costs about 10,000 yuan or 20,000 yuan, and a 500,000 yuan can be bought...

I can’t explain how many sets I have, but I must have lived with my grandchildren.

If $500,000 is used to consume, it is even more exaggerated. Normal people cannot imagine how it spends.

In China in the 1980s, the most expensive consumer product was the car. The Santana, which is 200,000 yuan, is considered a good top among civilian cars. The Crown of 500,000 yuan is the best car that normal people can buy. If US$500,000 is used to buy a Crown, all the remaining money will be bought by buying a large truck. In about a year, two or three Crowns will be added.

If you spend $500,000 to buy traditional luxury goods, such as jade, Hetian jade or mutton fat jade, it is estimated that it will be fine to buy a truck.

If you want to buy more high-end mutton fat jade, you can get as much as you want, and it will be fine to fill a room.

However, no matter how thoroughly they think, the money has nothing to do with them.

"Yang Rui can at least get a few thousand dollars in bonuses." Some scholar stood behind and whispered in Chinese.

The country's bureaucrats are not completely unkind. The era of wanting horses to run away but not giving them grass has long passed. After the reform and opening up, cash rewards were once popular in academic research institutions. Of course, the rewards usually only cost a few hundred yuan or thousands of yuan.

However, from another perspective, domestic scientific research institutions rarely make $500,000 at one time. Even if there are, they are often large projects that cost hundreds of millions of dollars, and there is no value of positive rewards.

In contrast, the PCR instrument made by Yang Rui is different. Anyone can find that the structure of the PCR instrument is very simple. In a slightly larger workshop in China, the shape of the knocking and hitting can be made. This volume alone determines that its cost will not be too high.

The team leader squeezed forward and listened carefully to Yang Rui and Garnika's bargaining.

Yes, he undoubtedly regarded Yang Rui's rejection as a bargaining strategy.

How could any scholar refuse the offer of $500,000?

The leader saw Xiaozhuang at this time, and quickly waved to him and called him, saying, "If you call the country, you will say that there are American companies willing to buy a PCR device made by Yang Rui for $500,000. Please organize instructions."

The team leader is a little proud. Going abroad to be a team leader also requires political achievements. It is certainly a result to bring people back safely, but if you solve the problem and then bring people back safely, it is performance. As for making a great thing like $500,000, which is almost nothing to say, it is almost a achievement.

Among the crowd, Yang Rui rejected the Garnika's share purchase request for the second time.

Garnika lowered her head and pondered for a moment, saying, "Mr. Yang Rui, I really like your design. I will increase the price by 10%. How about $550,000?"

"Sorry, this technology is not a product for sale." Yang Rui shook his head. He didn't have to think at all. Selling the Nobel Prize technology for $500,000 is a stupid thing, let alone PCR is one of the best technology to make money.

Garnika did not give up. This big-nosed Italian didn't show any discouragement at all. He said: "Mr. Yang Rui, I just want to buy the patent rights of your technology, that is, the right to commercialize it. You can continue to study this technology. If there is a derivative technology, we can distribute its benefits according to the contract, but no matter how the contract is signed, it will not affect your research."

I know, but I am not interested, really not interested." Yang Rui repeated it, his expression was extremely sincere.

"The bid is very good for $600,000." Garnika added another 10%. In the biotech industry, buying and selling technology is a very common behavior, but apart from those famous technologies, the price of potential technologies is often not high.

In this era when biology teachers in American universities have changed jobs, biotech companies can even buy technology for only tens of thousands of dollars. In many cases, the price is even lower than the experimental expenses, which is a helpless move made by college teachers in order to raise funds.

Of course, Yang Rui's PCR instrument has been recognized by the big guys, and its technology is excellent in application. The price should be higher, but 600,000 US dollars is a good increase.

Yang Rui shook his head without hesitation: "Thank you, there's really no need."

The team leader suddenly felt a little panicked: It’s better to bargain, don’t pretend to be so similar, okay? What if you scare people away? How difficult it is to find another company. We will go back in a few years. Send someone to negotiate, but I’m not responsible for it…

The leader couldn't wait for Xiaozhuang to call back, so he drove away the person in front, squeezed to the front, and laughed and said, "Yang Rui, don't be so full of words. Foreign friends have requests. We can't just refuse it directly. Do you think about it?"

He spoke Chinese, and everyone in the Chinese group understood it, so Americans did not have this configuration.

Garnika looked at the two of them with her eyes open.

Yang Rui glanced at the leader, but turned his head and said, "Then I'll think about it."

"Yes, that's what I mean..."

Yang Rui took dozens of seconds to raise his head, but said in English: "I have considered it, I refuse to sell this technology, no matter how much it costs."

The team leader was so angry that he said angrily: "Student Yang Rui, please pay attention to organizational principles and international influence."

In a blink of an eye, the leader's tone became calmer and continued to say in Chinese: "I have already notified the country by phone. They will soon send the negotiation outline. Yang Rui, I suggest you don't interfere with the negotiation anymore."

"Whatever." Yang Rui was too lazy to talk about it when he saw him. Anyway, patent rights and so on were all in the hands of Huarui Company. There are multiple offshore companies on Huarui Company. Garnika wanted to buy patents, so he could only find him.

However, there is no need to tell others about this secret. If the leader insists, he will let it go.

In fact, Yang Rui has been in a bad mood over the past day.

Yesterday was the day when he felt the biggest setback. It was like a salesperson working on the first day. He was hitting walls everywhere and was turned away and was overwhelmed.

It feels worse than the salesperson who worked on the first day, because Yang Rui is the technology owner.

In the past day, Yang Rui had already thought of all kinds of bad endings, and his strong sense of frustration almost defeated him.

In fact, he almost defeated him because after Yang Rui sent all the papers and PCR instruments, he was helpless. The extremely short time and unfamiliar environment left him with no reason to continue to persevere.

Professor Evans can help, in Yang Rui's opinion, it is pure luck. There is no need to wait too much. It is meaningless to appreciate his paper two days later.

After this, Yang Rui's excitement has been reduced a lot. In short, it is more thinking and calmness.

The leader was so hot all over. He spoke proficient English and started chatting with Garnika.

Garnika couldn't figure out the Chinese's way, so she followed her word after word.

The team leader actually didn't dare to negotiate the price directly. He had to wait for domestic news, so he could only "stabilize" Garnika.

Professor Evans is a rich scholar. It is easy for them to make money if they are a big bull at the level. He doesn't care about $500,000 or $600,000. Seeing that Yang Rui was relieved, he pulled Yang Rui and spoke.

There was a circle of Chinese and foreign scholars around. Those who wanted to listen to money would look to Garnika, and those who wanted to listen to academics would look to Yang Rui and Evans. They were so happy. Professor Hu and others stood up disdain and unwillingly.

"No matter how expensive you sell, it is the country's money, so you're happy." Professor Hu took the money seriously and felt sad when he retired.
