Chapter 56： Carbide Printing Materials

Cangsha District, Rongcheng Province.

A black Audi S8 drives into a modern factory.

The black Audi S8 slowly stopped at the entrance of the office building. Not long after, Li Yi and Cai Xiaowei got out of the car one after another.

Enter the office building and report the appointment to the female front desk.

Soon, the female receptionist walked ahead to lead the way, leading Li Yi to the chairman's office, while Cai Xiaowei was taken elsewhere.

The huge chairman's office is luxuriously decorated, with panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows, mahogany furniture, and in front of the coffee table for meeting guests, a bald middle-aged man in his forties was making tea, as if he was waiting for Li Yi.

Seeing Li Yi being led in by the front desk staff, the middle-aged man was slightly startled, then stood up quickly and asked in surprise, "Hello, are you President Li of Xingyao Technology?"

"Hello, President Xu!" Li Yi smiled slightly, walked in front of Xu Xiuyong, and took the initiative to extend his hand to greet him.

"Hello, hello, I didn't expect President Li to be so young! I'm a little surprised." Xu Xiuyong smiled awkwardly, stretched out his hand to shake hands with Li Yi enthusiastically, and said with emotion.

Li Yi was only 21 or 22 years old, but he was the boss of a big company, which really surprised Xu Xiuyong.

"I'm laughing, but I'm not very ambitious, Mr. Xu, don't underestimate me!" Li Yi laughed and joked with Xu Xiuyong.

"Haha! What Mr. Li said was, come, come, please take a seat, and let's sit down and talk." Xu Xiuyong laughed and hurriedly invited Li Yi to sit down.

Although Li Yi's youth surprised Xu Xiuyong, his self-confidence praised him to a certain extent, which showed his 'skills' to a certain extent. Whether he has 'real talents and hard work' can only be known after a chat.

Xu Xiuyong watched Li Yi sit down and couldn't help asking curiously, "Mr. Li, this time alone? Didn't you bring a few technicians?"

"No, I'm also from a technical background, and I also have research on materials. If we can reach a cooperation intention, then we can quickly move forward with this project." Li Yi waved his hand and explained.

"I understand, I understand! I don't know, what kind of cooperation does Mr. Li need from us?" Xu Xiuyong nodded repeatedly and asked Li Yi carefully.

Jinyuan Technology is a well-known material enterprise in the country. It has been committed to the research, development and sales of new materials, nanomaterials and 3D printing materials, and has extensive influence in the industry. Innovation in materials has all but stalled.

Therefore, Jinyuan urgently needs to introduce some collaborators for collaborative development, or an institution with strong scientific research strength to conduct research and development on its behalf.

After learning from a certain channel, Xingyao Technology, an enterprise with a supercomputing center and simulation experiment capability, has entered the vision of Jinyuan Technology.

Originally, he valued Xingyao Technology's advanced technology in the field of supercomputing, and was going to entrust it to perform experiments and provide data technical support. However, the boss of Xingyao Technology, took a fancy to Jinyuan Technology's material research and development project, and suddenly received Xu Xiuyong was overjoyed at the intention of cooperative development.

Compared with entrusted development, Xu Xiuyong expects more financial support from Xingyao Technology.

"Mr. Xu, this is my first cooperation with your company. In order to avoid any unpleasant things, I have to open up some words first!" Li Yi looked at Xu Xiuyong and said bluntly.

"Of course, if you have any requirements, Mr. Li, feel free to mention them." Xu Xiuyong nodded happily and said understandingly.

"Yeah! For this technology joint development and cooperation, Xingyao Technology is willing to bear all the research and development expenses, and the technical patents generated by the research and development results belong to our company." Li Yi looked at Xu Xiuyong with a profound look and said.

Hearing this, Xu Xiuyong was stunned for a moment, looked at Li Yi in confusion, and asked, "This, this, this is not the other way around? What does Xingyao Technology want these technical patents for? What benefits can Jinyuan get?"

"Xingyao Technology is going to develop into a technology research enterprise driven by advanced technology, and it needs to master some advanced technology reserves. In this joint research and development, if relevant technology patents are generated, under the same conditions, the authorization of technology patents will be enjoyed by Jinyuan. priority, and a 90% discount." Li Yi explained with a smile.

Xu Xiuyong frowned, thinking seriously.

"Mr. Xu, Jinyuan's funds should be used to increase the layout of the 3D industry, and research and development of new materials is a thankless scientific research investment that costs a lot of money. Xingyao Scientific Research is willing to undertake it. If the development fails, your company does not need it. Under the huge pressure of research and development, isn't this cooperation model very good!" Li Yi looked at Xu Xiuyong and asked with a smile.

"If that's the case, Xingyao Technology will do the research on its own. What are you doing with Jinyuan?" Xu Xiuyong looked at Li Yi badly.

Li Yi smiled slightly and continued to persuade: "Your company has rich technical reserves and senior R&D experience in the field of metal materials, and our company has advanced R&D methods in new materials and nano-powder materials. Therefore, we are in this 'hard The Alloy Printing Materials' R&D project has a very good basis for cooperation."

"Besides, Xingyao bears all the research and development funds and takes huge risks. Jinyuan only provides a little technical support. If the research and development is successful, we can sign a long-term authorization contract, which is definitely a good thing without risk for Jinyuan. If the research and development fails, Jinyuan has no losses at all, what do you think, President Xu!" After a pause, Li Yi looked at Xu Xiuyong and asked.

Hearing this, Xu Xiuyong couldn't help but be moved. The research and development of 3D materials is a very risky business. If Xingyao Technology can bear it, it will greatly ease the financial pressure of Jinyuan.

"If possible, I would like to first inspect your company's research room, connect with your company's technical director, and discuss the feasibility of this research project. Next, we are signing a cooperation agreement, Mr. Xu, look How is it?" Li Yi looked at Xu Xiuyong and continued.

Xu Xiuyong nodded and said simply: "No problem, Mr. Li has considered it very well, and I will arrange it immediately."

"I don't know, when will your engineer be in place?" After a pause, Xu Xiuyong looked at Li Yi and asked.

Hearing this, Li Yi seemed to have heard a joke and reminded Xu Xiuyong rudely: "Mr. Xu, don't underestimate me! I can still handle the technology in the field of materials and can handle it."

Xu Xiuyong widened his eyes and looked at Li Yi in disbelief: "Mr. Li, you're not joking!"

"Why would I joke about this kind of thing? If President Xu doesn't believe it, we can test it on the spot!" Li Yi shook his head with a smile and said loudly.

Xu Xiuyong glanced at Li Yi in astonishment. He was a little unsure of what the other party said was a promise.

If Li Yi doesn't come to Taiwan at that time, then this cooperation project may be in vain.

Seeing Xu Xiuyong's hesitant expression, Li Yi knew his concerns, and quickly comforted him: "Mr. Xu, don't worry! How dare I go to Liangshan without three or three!"

"Okay! Since President Li said so, please come with me." Xu Xiuyong nodded with a smile, stood up, and led the way for Li Yi.

Li Yi nodded happily and stood up.

Soon, with Xu Xiuyong leading the way, Li Yi left the reception room and walked towards their R&D department.

Not long after, Xu Xiuyong brought Li Yi into a small conference room.

Xu Xiuyong recruited four R&D experts and introduced them to Li Yi one by one: "Mr. Li This is Professor Liu Cheng, who has rich research experience in the microstructure of plastic deformation of metal materials.  … This is Professor Pan Fusheng, who is mainly engaged in the research on the mechanism of alloy strengthening and toughening.... This is Professor Nie Xiaofeng, who is mainly responsible for the deformation mechanism and microstructure and texture control of industrial metal sheets. This is Professor Wang Qian, who is mainly engaged in medium and low Basic research on extraction and separation of non-ferrous elements,..."

Looking at the four professors in their fifties, Li Yi greeted them happily: "Professor Liu, Professor Pan, Professor Nie, and Professor Wang, hello!"

"Hello, Mr. Li," Professor Liu Cheng smiled politely and asked straight to the point: "Listen to Mr. Xu, do you want to cooperate with us to develop 'tungsten carbide printing materials'?"

"Yes, 3D printing technology is gradually replacing other production modes. However, printing materials need to be solved urgently. Cemented carbide printing materials have a huge application market. We have our own advantages in this field, and cooperative development is very suitable." Li Yi smiled and nodded.

The four professors looked at each other and agreed with Li Yi's judgment. With the advancement of technology, 3D printing technology has become more and more mature. However, printing materials have always restricted the development of this technology. If a new type of cemented carbide printing can be developed Materials, there is no need to worry about the lack of a market.

The four professors couldn't help being very optimistic about this cooperation project. They were eager to enter the next agenda, but couldn't wait for each other's technicians for a long time.

"Mr. Li, where is the technical director of your company?" Professor Nie Xiaofeng looked at Li Yi and asked puzzled.

Li Yi shook his head, smiled, and introduced, "Professor, we can start. I am the technical leader of this project."

"you?"

Hearing this, the four professors stared at Li Yi and exclaimed in unison.
