If that's really the case.

Then I've really hit the jackpot this time...

After all, who wouldn't want to see their country grow stronger day by day?

But on the other hand.

Based on the information gathered so far.

The so-called national fortune reward is indeed valuable, but the boost brought by that '+1' is likely limited.

If nothing unexpected happens.

Its actual effect should be to ensure the success of things that are on the verge of completion, but it won't magically produce results out of thin air.

It's like a gentle spring breeze.

When the breeze blows, lightweight branches may sway slightly and drift gently in the direction.

But if the target is an ear, the effect is zero.

Therefore, if it is to become a real game-changer for national trajectory, just one +1 is clearly not enough.

Maybe +7 or +8 might be about right.

For now, its symbolic significance might be greater; it's good, but it won't bring a qualitative change.

As a result, soon.

Xu Yun took a deep breath, brought his thoughts back to reality, and focused his attention on the Hanhua Group:

"Teacher, is there a way for us to get in touch with Hanhua Group?"

"Hold on for a second."

Tian Liangwei rummaged through the drawer for a bit and soon found several postcards.

Then he opened the postcards, shook them in his hand, and said:

"Back in the day when I was evaluating national model workers, I met Director Lin once, and we've been exchanging postcards and small gifts over the years."

"How about this, I'll give him a call and see if there's a chance for us to collaborate."

"To be honest, even though Director Lin is almost 70 now, when it comes to dealing with foreign companies, he can whip out a set of military moves in no time!"

Then Tian Liangwei asked Xu Yun and Gu Qunqing to sit down first and dialed a private number.

A moment later.

A robust voice came from the other end of the phone:

"Hello, Old Tian?"

"Yes, it's me, Old Lin. What are you up to right now?"

"Nothing much, there's nothing urgent at the factory today, so I went fishing for half a day and was just about to go home."

"Fishing, huh... That's quite a relaxing activity. Hmm, why does it sound noisy on your end?"

"I'm at the market buying fish... uh, I mean, buying ingredients for grilled fish, Old Tian, let me tell you, today I caught one that's over three pounds... Hey, hey, hey, don't snatch it, that's the grass carp I spotted first!"

Tian Liangwei:

"..."

A little over a minute later.

The noisy background on the other end of the phone suddenly quieted down, and the other person said:

"Cough, cough... There was a little mishap just now. So, Old Tian, how have you been lately?"

Tian Liangwei glanced lightly at Xu Yun and deliberately said:

"To be honest, not too well."

Hearing this, the voice on the other end instantly got louder:

"What happened, something wrong at home?"

"Not at home, it's on the other side."

Tian Liangwei sighed and described to Lin Zhenhua the predicament that Huadun Biotech was facing:

"...That's roughly the situation. The equipment embargo is preventing us from increasing production, and the situation has stalled."

"Just happened to see the technical filing submitted by your company on the Fuin, so I thought of asking if we could try producing a set of cyclic-construction equipment..."

"Damn those little devils!"

After listening to the background and current situation described by Tian Liangwei, Lin Zhenhua couldn't help but curse:

"Damn, how many years has it been, and these guys are still lingering around like ghosts."

Lin Zhenhua used to work in equipment export in his earlier years, so he dealt with the Little Baka quite a bit.

Because of that.

He had witnessed many tricks used by the Neon People.

The most common of which was selling equipment at low prices and providing high-priced subsequent parts at prices even several times higher.

For instance, back when Lin Zhenhua was still a technician, Jiangnan Province's second fertilizer plant imported a set of large fertilizer equipment which included two chillers worth 210,000 US Dollars.

As it turned out, during installation.

The main shaft of one chiller was broken in an operational error and was rendered useless. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

At that time, Jiangnan Light Chemical Hall confirmed that the primary responsibility was on the Huaxia side, so they didn't demand compensation from the Neon side.

Instead, after dealing with the responsible personnel, they proposed to import another main shaft from the other side.

This situation was frustrating, but actually pretty normal:

It's like when you bought a small electric scooter, and when you parked it, you fell, and the ball bearings fell out, so you had to find the seller for after-sales maintenance.

And since it's after-sales maintenance, the price should be cheaper, let alone the fact that the equipment had just been bought.

The other party replied:

It's no problem providing a main shaft, but it will cost 30,000 US Dollars.

Bear in mind.

A chiller cost just a bit over 100,000 US Dollars back then, so charging 300 US Dollars for a main shaft would already be considered high.

Later, Lin Zhenhua and others, with a mindset of spirited rivalry, mobilized their technical core forces to produce a main shaft themselves.

When the Neon representatives heard that we had made a main shaft, they immediately objected, insisting that our Axion was severely faulty and unusable.

Seeing the situation, an eighth-level worker stood up and proposed a plan:

Let's gamble life!

Gambling life meant that the Huaxia side and the Neon side each installed their shaft on a chiller, with the eighth-level workers standing by the Huaxia main shaft, and the Neon representatives by the Neon main shaft.

Then gradually increase the speed and see which one breaks first.

The initial speed of the chiller was 1000 RPM,

Later it was increased to 1500... 2000... 2500.

When Huawei raised it to 3000 RPM, the Neon representatives chickened out.
