Just one day later, Gao Yuan saw an old man in the company. He looked almost seventy years old, with gray hair and glasses, a gentle temperament, and introduced himself, named Cui Kaiyuan.

Focusing on personal image may be the common feature of traditional intellectuals. Mr. Cui and Cao Feiyu both wore straight suits, red bow tie, and meticulously combed their hair. In an instant, the plateau had an illusion that the elderly version of Cao Feiyu was in front of him.

He hurriedly invited Mr. Cui to take his seat, and Cao Feiyu asked him what to drink.

Cui Kaiyuan said: "If you have black tea, it's best. It's okay without black tea boiled water. If you get older, your stomach is not good, and you can't drink raw and cold things."

Cao Feiyu nodded and made him a cup of black tea.

Gao Yuan asked curiously: "I didn't expect you to come so quickly. Mr. Wu only told me about your needs yesterday afternoon, but I didn't expect you to come today."

Cui Kaiyuan sighed and said, "Can't wait. I watched your live broadcast yesterday, and I immediately realized the great value of Kunlun Seiko to the field of optical. Unfortunately, I don't recognize your company either, so I had to ask Lao Wu for help inquire, and then I realized that he has a good relationship with you."

"So, I asked Lao Wu to ask if you have any ideas to get involved in the field of optics. Then you promise Lao Wu to give it a try. Now I was so excited! I tossed and turned last night and couldn't sleep, so I just took the first train this morning and came to Jiangnan."

So that's how it is.

Gao Yuan nodded, looked at Cui Kaiyuan again, and asked, "Old Cui, I don't know which company you represent? Are you making optical glasses or optoelectronic products like cameras?"

"Glasses?" Mr. Cui was stunned for a moment and frowned and said, "It seems that Lao Wu didn't explain it clearly to you. I am not a glasses, nor a camera. I am the Institute of Optics of China Science and Technology, in charge of scientific camera special projects."

Pooh ~

Gao Yuan almost sprayed out the tea foam in his mouth. This misunderstanding turned out to be an old senior from the Institute of Optics of China Science and Technology, who specializes in scientific cameras!

Maybe everyone doesn't know that cameras are actually divided into different levels. Common Nikon, Canon, etc. are mostly consumer-grade digital cameras. Consumer-grade cameras are good to take pictures of beauties on the street, but when used in scientific research, it seems not enough to see them.

Can you throw the Nikon D-Series on orbital satellites and use them as space cameras?

Of course, it is not possible. Even if you barely install it, consumer-grade cameras will definitely perform poorly in the face of powerful cosmic rays and harsh space environments. Otherwise, scientific research institutions in various countries will not spend a lot of money to specialize in scientific cameras.

Science cameras are the kind of hugely ugly, bulky, and expensive, but they are indispensable whether they are shooting in space or deep sea, microorganisms or chemical reactions.

Cui Kaiyuan smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's normal. Our scientific camera team has never been famous and has no decent products. Even the Chinese Academy of Sciences uses imported scientific cameras, and no one among the people knows that our group exists."

"But this is not a solution. Now it is easy to buy imported scientific cameras, but I have always been worried that if one day it is like a lithography machine, no matter how much money it costs, what should I do?"

"So my biggest wish is to be able to produce domestic scientific cameras in my lifetime and leave a way out for future scientific researchers. After all, although the production and sales of scientific cameras are very low, it is really not possible without this thing."

Mr. Cui was full of sincerity and was still worried about the country and the people at the age of his life, which moved Gaoyuan and Cao Feiyu.

Gao Yuan smiled slightly and said, "I promised Mr. Wu yesterday that he would try to do some optical research. Since you are here in person today, let's talk straight to the point. I want to ask you and your team to come to our Kunlun Group to assist in the work. Just like with the Aerospace Group, we will also set up a joint laboratory!"

Cui Kaiyuan was stunned and looked excited.

Then, he seemed to think of something again, and said in a little embarrassedly: "Our scientific camera team has only a dozen people, and the annual research funding is pitifully small, so"

Gao Yuan understood and waved his hand and said, "Old Cui, we can afford this research funding, and scientific cameras are top technology at the top of the pyramid level. Once successful, they can be used in the field of consumer optics."

Cao Feiyu also smiled and said: "We have always made money from the consumer field to make up for research deficits. Please rest assured that even if scientific cameras lose money, as long as we can use technology to enter the consumer field and defeat Canon, Nikon, and Olympus, we will only make more money in the future!"

Cui Kaiyuan has been engaged in optical research for his whole life and did not understand business matters, but he heard what Gao Yuan and Cao Feiyu said, so he gradually felt relieved.

"Then I will notify the team members and move the family directly! I will work here in your office in the future!" Cui Kaiyuan said excitedly.

His so-called family background is mainly experience and data, and there is nothing valuable. Of course, the plateau is rich and powerful now, so he doesn't care about these things.

Gao Yuan thought for a while and said to Cao Feiyu: "You can connect with Mr. Cui, and place an order to purchase the equipment you need immediately. At the same time, let Xu Qingzhou find a group of engineers who have studied optics or surveying and mapping to enter the joint laboratory."

Cao Feiyu nodded and agreed, leaving the office with Cui Kaiyuan, and found another place to discuss.

In the evening, Cao Feiyu reported to the plateau that everything was ready.

After hearing this, Gao Yuan nodded silently, as if he was in a heavy mood.

"Do you have something to worry about?" Cao Feiyu noticed it keenly and asked himself the childhood friend.

Gao Yuan shrugged and said, "It's nothing, it's just that the scientific camera incident has produced many associations. The revolution has not been successful yet, so we still need to work hard."

Cao Feiyu said: "Look at what you said, it seems very tragic."

"The fact is very tragic." Gao Yuan curled his lips and threw Cao Feiyu a table. "This is the market share ranking of scientific research equipment that the public rarely knows, that is, the professional equipment, consumables, etc. used in major laboratories."

"The largest scientific research equipment manufacturer in the world is Thermo Fisher Technology, a North American company. The second is Denach, the third is Shimadzu, Japan, Roche, Switzerland, the fifth is Agilent, the sixth is Zeiss, the seventh is Metler Toledo, the eighth is Brook, the ninth is Waters, and the tenth is Ebend, the German."

Gao Yuan said quickly, Cao Feiyu's face gradually became gloomy. The problem was not that Gao Yuan memorized the rankings, but that among the top ten suppliers of scientific research equipment, there was no Chinese company!

"Not only have the top ten, but also the top twenty." Gao Yuan said: "Mr. Cui was visiting today, but he just opened the tip of the iceberg. We, who claim to be a major scientific research country, do not have suitable scientific research equipment. This is a great irony."
