  Chapter 792 SMS-JCB Joint Corporation

   "Uh, this design... is very novel!" Clement is a master in technology, and he can see the feasibility of this design at a glance.

When the two bosses of "JCB" stared at their design, Zhao Guoyang explained from the side: "You two should have seen it too. The design I thought of, when the operator enters and exits the cab, It’s a no-touch loading boom and attachment.”

   "Compared with the design of "Caterpillar" in this area, I think it should have certain advantages?"

  After Zhao Guoyang finished speaking, Bamford and Clement nodded in agreement.

  These two are experts, and they can see at a glance the advantages of Zhao Guoyang's one-arm structure and one-side door entry and exit.

  The single-arm structure makes the operation of the skid steer loader more flexible and manoeuvrable; and the single-side door entry and exit eliminates the danger of slipping, crushing and bruising.

   After being happy for a while, the two bigwigs of "JCB Company" suddenly thought of an important point.

   Obviously, the design that Zhao Guoyang showed them now can be regarded as the embryonic form of a patent.

  As long as there is a little follow-up sorting out, it is almost certain to be able to come up with a patent.

  Now Mr. Zhao has put the idea in front of him so generously, which is a manifestation of his extreme trust in the two of them.

After trying to understand this, Bamford and Clement exchanged glances, and then said: "Mr. Zhao, since you are so proficient in skid steer loaders, let's stop worrying about it and directly use it. How about being our first joint project?"

  Zhao Guoyang gave a "huh", nodded affirmatively and said, "No problem! I completely agree with Mr. Bamford's proposal!"

   "Since Mr. Zhao has no objection, let's have a good discussion on how to cooperate next time!" Clement also added in a timely manner.

  After listening to his words, Zhao Guoyang and Bamford looked at each other and smiled, and at the same time stretched out their hands and held each other tightly.

  …

  Three days later, in the VIP area of ​​Hongqiao Airport, a group of people from "SMS Company" was saying goodbye to a group of "JCB Company" who had completed their visit.

  Walking behind Zhao Guoyang, watching the young Mr. Zhao and the boss of "JCB Company" Bamford talking eloquently, Zhao Siyan secretly admired him.

   These days, Zhao Guoyang almost handled all the reception and negotiation work by himself.

  Under his efforts, "JCB Company" finally decided to reach a policy of comprehensive cooperation with "SMS Company", and established a new "SMS-JCB Joint Company" that mainly produces small construction machinery products.

  The two parties agreed to inject 10 million pounds into the joint company.

Among them, "SMS Company" invested 2 million pounds, including hidden capital injections such as factory buildings, equipment, and personnel, and occupied 60% of the shares; while "JCB Company" invested 8 million pounds in cash and two production lines. Occupy 40% of the shares.

  After friendly consultations, the two parties reached a consensus on the ownership of the products and intellectual property rights produced by this "SMS-JCB joint company".

  Among them, the products produced by the joint company can be hung with the original label of "SMS Company" or "JCB Company" alone, or can be hung with the original label of the joint company.

  If the "JCB Company" OEM label is displayed, they will be given an extra half of the products sold.

  As for the issue of intellectual property rights, except for the production line provided by "JCB Company", the ownership of all newly developed products of the other joint companies belongs to the new company itself.

   Although "SMS Company" and "JCB Company" do not have the right to transfer, they both have the right to use it.

  In addition, out of the consideration of maintaining its own strong position in the European market, "JCB" also put forward an additional requirement for "SMS Company".

   That is to hope that within three years, the annual sales volume of the other party in the European market can be limited to a figure, which is 80 million pounds.

   Zhao Guoyang agreed to this after careful consideration.

  The reason is very simple. Although he is very confident in the future of himself and "SMS Company", he believes that the company will definitely be able to open up the international market step by step.

  However, in the most critical European market, within two or three years, "SMS Company" does not yet have the strength to compete with such giants as "Caterpillar" and "JCB".

  So it's not a big deal to push this issue a little bit.

  Of course, Zhao Guoyang agreed to Bamford's condition, and the other party must have paid something.

  After discussing with Clement, Bamford promised Zhao Guoyang that every year their "SMS Company" could send five to ten technicians to their "JCB Company" technical department for a period of study.

   Such an opportunity is really invaluable for young college graduates who lack actual combat experience in China. Of course, Zhao Guoyang agreed wholeheartedly.

  The signing of the agreement between the two companies not only means that "SMS Company" has immediately entered the top five domestic construction machinery manufacturing enterprises.

   More importantly, incorporating "SMS-JCB Joint Company" into its own "SMS Company" will have more development advantages than any domestic construction machinery manufacturing enterprise in the future.

  After all, the products produced by the company can bear the sign of "JCB Company", which is very easy to make a name for itself when the company started.

  So when Zhao Guoyang and Bamford signed the contract, Mayor Huang came to witness this historical moment in person.

  In the VIP area, Zhao Guoyang chatted with Bamford for a while, and a reminder to board the plane came from the radio.

  Banford sighed with some emotion, looked at Zhao Guoyang and said: "Mr. Zhao, I have really gained a lot from my visit to China this time! It is my honor to know such an outstanding young entrepreneur like you!"

   "Mr. Bamford's praise!" Zhao Guoyang hurriedly said humbly, "I learned a lot from you and Mr. Clement!"

  After hearing this, Bamford and Clement beside him laughed.

   "By the way, at the beginning of next year, there will be an 'International Construction Machinery Exhibition' in Las Vegas, USA. I wonder if you can go there, Mr. Zhao?"

  After hearing this, Zhao Guoyang immediately understood.

   Needless to say, Mr. Bamford will definitely be present at the exhibition next year.

  Thinking of this, Zhao Guoyang nodded quickly and said, "No problem, Mr. Bamford. In fact, I have heard of this construction machinery exhibition in Las Vegas before, but I just haven't had the chance to attend it."

   "Ha, then next year's exhibition, Mr. Zhao, you must participate. I'm very optimistic that you and your 'SMS company' can emerge!" Bamford said cheerfully.

Clement next to him also echoed: "Yes, Mr. Zhao. I personally admire your technical accomplishments. As long as the single-arm skid loader we cooperate with can be successfully developed, Next year, you, the main designer, will definitely become famous!"

"hope so!"

  Zhao Guoyang nodded with a smile and said, "If it is true what Mr. Clement said, then our two companies will definitely make a lot of money next year!"

   "Yes, yes, this must be!" Clement nodded repeatedly.

   After chatting a few words at the end, Zhao Guoyang watched the "JCB" group board the plane.

   Not long after, Li Zhaohe, who was standing by the side, let out a sigh of relief as the plane took off slowly.

   "Phew, I finally sent these VIPs away!"

  Hearing this, Zhao Guoyang couldn't help but smiled and said, "Old Li, why do you sound like you want him to leave early?"

  Li Zhaohe waved his hands quickly when he heard the words: "No, no, Mr. Zhao, you misunderstood. I just want to go back and settle the accounts. All the distinguished guests are here these days, and I haven't been able to take the time to settle the accounts carefully..."

   "Account, what account is it?" Zhao Guoyang asked a little puzzled.

   "Li always has to calculate whether there is enough money in the company's account, right? After all, after this cooperation agreement, our 'SMS Company' will also invest two million pounds!" Zhao Siyan interjected.

   "That's right, Mr. Zhao, Leader Siyan is right. Ever since we signed the contract with 'JCB Company', I've been feeling uneasy."

  Li Zhaohe said with a sad face: "The contract says it's good. Starting from June 1 this year, this 'SMS-JCB joint company' will be formally established."

   "At this time, if our 'SMS company' can't come up with two million pounds, what should we do?"

  After listening to Li Zhaohe's "sorrow", Zhao Guoyang was amused.

He patted the old comrade's shoulder indifferently and said: "Old Li, you can just rest assured about this matter. These days, there are no problems to solve, only the problem of money. It's the easiest to fix."

   "Huh?" Hearing Zhao Guoyang's words, Li Zhaohe was a little dazed.

   Zhao Siyan on the side quickly realized it.

  She nodded approvingly, and explained to Li Zhaohe beside her: "Manager Li, I think I understand Mr. Zhao's meaning!"

   "Our 'SMS Company' may not have enough funds temporarily because we need to expand the production scale. As for Mr. Zhang, because we also have to carry out several large projects, we can't give large support."

   "However, don't forget, there is another company under Mr. Zhao's banner, and it is a very well-funded owner!"

   Zhang Yufang, who was standing behind the two of them, nodded in agreement when she heard the words: "That's right, what Leader Siyan said was what I was going to say just now."

Turning to look at Zhao Guoyang with a calm face, Teacher Zhang smiled and said: "Speaking of the three companies under Mr. Zhao, our 'Xingtai International' may be the largest. Manager Li and Siyan lead your 'SMS Company' The valuation of fixed assets is the highest."

   "But when it comes to which company has the most cash, it must be that 'Rongguang Co., Ltd.' is gone..."

  After hearing what Zhao Siyan said, Li Zhaohe suddenly realized.
