At night, in a certain bedroom, a couple was having a bedtime chat.

"Hey, honey, a deputy general manager of our company was caught for taking kickbacks."

"How many kickbacks did you receive? Aren't your company's remuneration packages and benefits very good?"

"I heard that there are millions of kickbacks. That deputy general manager has a mental problem and did something like that. According to his level, after becoming a full-time employee, he will receive a bonus of three million at the end of the year. He has a bright future. After all, it is not money given by the company.

It’s less, but it’s because you can’t satisfy people’s desires. Even if you give them 100 million, they might want one billion. Desire is a bottomless pit. Fortunately, we discovered it early. This kind of person should be caught!”

"Then why are you sighing, husband? It has nothing to do with you."

"I feel like my lips are dying and my teeth are cold."

"Don't do bad things, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door. Husband, after all, the higher your position is, the more worried I am. The salary package your company gives you is already very good, so don't be stupid."

"Hey, don't worry. I can handle it clearly. I won't do that kind of thing. We are not short of money. We just have a daughter. We have everything we need. How could we do something stupid?"

In the past few nights, the fact that Li Jing was caught and imprisoned for taking kickbacks has greatly shocked the middle and senior management of Xinghai Group. They are reflecting on whether they have done anything wrong.

Now, Luo Xiang is a living king of hell in their eyes. Saying hello to them makes their heartbeats speed up inexplicably.

Li Jing's incident caused a stir in Xinghai Group, but it returned to its usual calmness after a few days.

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the university also started a new semester.

Song Xuelu has also started school. She has been admitted to graduate school by the school and majors in accounting.

But she plans to take a year off before studying again, and her marriage plan to Mu Yang has been decided. She just said that she has not yet decided whether or not to hold a wedding banquet, or even when to hold the wedding banquet.

Whether there is a wedding banquet or not, she still wants to take wedding photos.

She has recently become obsessed with wedding dresses. She goes to look at them and even tries them on in her free time.

Mu Yang's suggestion is to ask the world's famous wedding dress master to customize it for Song Xuelu. Song Xuelu's advice is not to be extravagant and wasteful, not to make it too exaggerated, and to inlay any diamonds. The wedding dress is only worn once. After wearing it once, it is mostly kept as a collection. In fact, with time

As time goes by, no matter how good the wedding dress is, it will become old, so there is no need to make it too good.

Mu Yang finally listened to his wife's advice and invited famous teachers from around the world to customize it, spending at most hundreds of thousands of dollars. People get married once in a lifetime. He is not short of money, so he can't be too casual.

In her previous life, Song Xuelu didn't have a wedding dress. The two of them just took wedding photos casually, which was very hasty, and they didn't even organize a banquet.

In this life, Mu Yang must make up for his regrets and not let his wife have any regrets.

In addition to customizing wedding dresses, Muyang also customizes jewelry.

Mu Yang prefers jade, and feels that jade bracelets and rings worn by his wife are more in line with her temperament. Wearing gold looks vulgar, and diamond necklaces look too street-oriented.

But it is too difficult to find Laokeng glass imperial green bracelets. The cut Laokeng glass imperial green jadeite rough stones are definitely not available on the market. Most of them are collected by people, and they may not be available nationwide.

The price of jadeite is not cheap these days. A piece of Laokeng glass imperial green bracelet A can cost tens of millions of yuan at least. If there are no flaws and the water quality is good, it can be sold for two to three hundred million yuan.

Of course, if you settle for the next best thing, Laogelaokeng glass light green or high-ice colorless bracelets can be bought for millions, and they are also valuable for collection.

However, with the current counterfeiting technology, let’s not talk about the very obvious difference between Malay jade. This jade can wash away the flaws. Even if you use real jade to wash it, experienced people can still see the difference. The transparency of the washed jade

It is called B product if it is very poor. If it is green, it will be more obvious. The color is lumpy and cannot be evenly dispersed.

Laokeng glass imperial green rings are easy to find. A small piece of leftover material can be used to make the ring surface. If the ring surface is small, you can buy an imperial green ring for around hundreds of thousands.

Jade of this quality is not available in ordinary cities. Only some high-end stores in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou or Hong Kong City sell it. The price is very expensive, twice as expensive as going to Sanzhou, the place where jade is processed, or Tengchong or Nanyang in Yunnan Province. If you really want to buy it,

For high-end jadeite, it is best to go to these places.

Don't trust any certificate when buying jade. You can get a certificate for tens of dollars, and it may not necessarily be A grade. It is best to ask people in the industry for help, and then go to a professional inspection agency to watch them inspect it in person.

For Mu Yang, he still believes in authentic auction items.

He asked people who were familiar with the auction industry to help him pay attention to several major auctions to see if Imperial Green was being auctioned. He even consulted world-famous auction houses such as Sotheby's and Christie's in the name of the company. They all had resources in this area.

On February 12th, Mu Yang received an email message from Sotheby's auction, saying that there would be an auction in Hong Kong City in March. The email described the treasures to be auctioned, and Mu Yang read it.

The raw imperial green jadeite in the stone, with its skin completely scraped off, weighs about 1.5KG and has no cracks. It can be used to make a jadeite bracelet with a diameter of 56mm. The ring is then inserted into a small bracelet with a diameter of 42mm. You can make a lot of leftover materials.

Ring face.

After seeing this promotional material, Mu Yang decided to take a photo of it.

In addition to jade, there are also some calligraphy and painting treasures.

Before Sotheby's and Christie's auctions, they will conduct a long period of publicity and send information to potential buyers.

On February 13th,

In 2011, the top 500 Chinese brands were announced, and Xinghai Group ranked 30th in the country in terms of brand value.

Mu Yang was informed and was very happy, saying that Xinghai Group has been at the forefront of domestic enterprises and should be proud of it.

Regarding this 30th place, Mu Yang feels that it is about the same. Warwick ranks tenth in the country.

But Huawei's turnover last year was over 100 billion yuan, while Xinghai Group's was only 30 to 40 billion yuan.

Xinghai Group’s revenue is not high, and the top 100 companies are all higher than Xinghai Group;

However, Xinghai Group's influence is world-class, and many of its technologies are world-class.

Brand is people's evaluation and recognition of a company, its products, after-sales services, and cultural value. It is a kind of trust.

To evaluate the value of brand intangible assets, there are mainly market method, income method and cost method.

Various authoritative institutions have highly recognized the evaluation of Xinghai Group. It would be unfair to Xinghai Group if it were evaluated solely based on turnover, because it started late, but starting late does not mean that its global influence is low.

As the popularity of Mu Yang and the reputation of Xinghai Group spread, when Chinese people hear "Xinghai Group", their first impression is that of a "black technology" company. This company does not bother to be the second in the world.

For example, which company has the best welding machines and which company has the best welding technology? There is no doubt that it is Xinghai Group. This is the perception of industry professionals and even ordinary people.

Even foreigners admit that international giants such as Matsushita, Lincoln, and ESAB have all been defeated by Xinghai Group. This is a fact.

Xinghai Group's secondary protection welding machines have been hyped by scalpers since they were launched. However, Xinghai Group has restricted sales in order to avoid monopoly laws.

There is a joke about scalpers and small workshop owners that has been circulating in the welding equipment industry.

The scalper told a small workshop owner: "I'm telling you, this second-guaranteed welding machine belongs to Xinghai Group. Now it's sold at a price increase of 1,000 yuan, and it's only been used for half a month. If you don't want it, another boss will rush to get it."

"

The owner of a small workshop who had just entered the welding industry looked unconvinced: "99% new, it's a thousand yuan more expensive than the normal market price. What international joke are you kidding? This is the first time I've heard that second-hand goods are more expensive than the normal market price.

equipment.”

"You have a small quantity and you can't buy it from the agent. You only buy one, and that's the price. The brand-new price is definitely three to four thousand more than the normal market price. If it's only a few hundred yuan more, you have the ability."

Get the goods, I want as much as I want.

If Xinghai Group hadn't limited prices and prohibited sales at higher prices, those agents would have already raised the prices. Selling for a few thousand dollars more wouldn't be a problem at all. Xinghai Group also limits production capacity just for fear of being suspected of being a monopoly. That's how awesome it is!

If there were no other brands of welding machines on the market, look at how many foreign brands there are. Matsushita would have been kicked out of the country long ago.

Xinghai Group also limits the number of agents it gives to agents. Brother, you are in Henan Province, so it’s good to have the goods. After using it for half a month, it’s actually no different from a brand new one. There is no problem with the quality of this welding machine at all.”

"Forget it, I'll ask again." The owner of the small workshop waved his hand without much hesitation, not wanting scalpers to make money. It's too fucking deceptive.

"what ever."

It doesn't matter if it's a scalper. He charges 2,000 yuan lower than the original price. Earning a middle price of 3,000 yuan is just a hard-earned fee.

One day later, the owner of the small workshop couldn't find the goods, so he asked the scalper again and found out that he had already sold them.

"Can you contact me if you have the goods? It's not a problem if it costs a thousand yuan."

"Let's wait until it's available. There are too many people asking. It's brand new and it costs 4,000 yuan. Do you want it? I'll find a way to help you get one."

"It doesn't matter if it costs four thousand, just a second-hand one. It's not easy to run a small business."

"It's really hard to find second-hand ones. Why don't you buy other domestic brands? They're not out of stock. My Weiwang is also pretty good. It only costs four thousand yuan, not 19,000."

"Forget it, my Party A only recognizes Xinghai Group's welding machines. It must use this welding machine brand to weld products, otherwise the order will not be given. Damn it, I can't figure it out. Could it be that Xinghai Group's welding machines can weld products?"

It’s gold.”

"Well, haha, you will know it after you have used it. Just find anyone who has done welding, and they will definitely say that Xinghai Group's welding machine is good." The scalper was too lazy to explain.

If the equipment has not been sold yet, he will definitely explain to him that Xinghai Group's equipment is stable, the weld quality is good, there is zero spatter and no polishing is required, and the technical level requirements for welders are much lower.

The incident between the owner of this small workshop and scalpers happened in many places.

Small workshop owners have little demand and cannot buy goods at all, so they can only pick up goods from scalpers.

Xinghai Group does not have retail stores in order to reduce sales costs.

Also on this day, Xinghai Group obtained the "Nationally Recognized Enterprise Technology Center".

It is very difficult to obtain this nationally recognized enterprise technology center. There are many conditions. For example, it is required to be recognized as a provincial or municipal (department) recognized enterprise technology center for more than 2 years.

Muyang applied for provincial certification as an enterprise technology center within the first year of its establishment, which was not difficult.

It also requires technical leaders with high technical level and rich practical experience, a certain scale of technical talent team, and strong innovative talent advantages in the same industry.

This condition is basically the top three levels in the industry, and it must have a technical team. If the technical team is dozens of people, it will definitely not work if it is not large enough.

Mu Yang is someone who has been there and knows that it is not easy to obtain this national certification as an enterprise technology center.

Apply before May every year, once a year.

Perhaps it is a special situation of Xinghai Group that the implementation is so fast, but it is also a normal situation.

The advantage is that there are corresponding preferential policies. For example, if Xinghai Group develops the world's top technology, there will be rewards after applying. This reward can range from hundreds of thousands of yuan to tens of millions of yuan.

Of course Mu Yang is interested in this reward, and it will have achievement points.

In addition, several of the company's laboratories have also passed the approval of provincial key laboratories and have 3 national-level postdoctoral research workstations.

When the awards come in April and May, a large number of corporate honors will be awarded to the company.

The company received these honors and celebrated internally. The company profile on the official website only contains these honors, but there is not too much publicity. There is not just one Xinghai Group, but hundreds of them across the country.

Just another day passed, February 14th, Valentine’s Day in the West, and the winners of the 2011 Wolf Prize in Mathematics were announced.

A total of two mathematicians have won the award this time, and the award ceremony will be held in the holy city of Jerusalem on June 11 this year.

The Wolf Prize has been awarded since 1978 and is awarded annually to outstanding scientists and artists from all over the world, including medicine, agriculture, mathematics, chemistry, physics, painting, music, sculpture, architecture and other fields.

Among them, the Wolf Prize in Mathematics is one of the most important mathematics prizes in the world today. It and the Fields Medal are jointly known as the highest honor in mathematics!

The Wolf Prize in Mathematics does not have an age limit for winners to be under 40 like the Fields Medal. Therefore, there will be more academic figures among the Wolf Prize winners.

There is no doubt that Mu Yang is one of the mathematicians who won this award.

He is also the youngest Wolf Prize winner in the world. He is 22 years old this year and just over a month after his birthday.

Compared with being a nationally recognized enterprise technology center, it is a big deal that Mu Yang won the Wolf Prize in Mathematics.

At 7:30 in the evening, YTV News LB broadcast this news. Although it was only a short minute, it was also on News LB, and the opinions were different.

Most people don't know about the Wolf Prize in Mathematics. They only know that it can be broadcast by News LB, but they don't realize how important it is.

The highest honor in mathematics is almost comparable to the Nobel Prize, that's what it means.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Mu Yang received a large wave of achievement points.

[The company obtained the "Nationally Recognized Enterprise Technology Center", achievement points +30;]

[The host personally won the Wolf Prize in Mathematics, achievement points +100;]

[Five of the company's laboratories have obtained provincial key laboratories, with +50 achievement points;]

[The company has 3 national-level postdoctoral research workstations, with achievement points +15;]

[Two papers on semiconductor refrigeration chip SCI Area 2, achievement points +20;]

Total achievement points: 611.5

Mu Yang breathed a sigh of relief as 215 achievement points were suddenly added.

After not adding achievement points for several months, he was a little flustered and did not dare to use achievement points to buy technology.
Chapter completed!
