It is undeniable that Carnegie is very clever. From an unknown name to a wealthy world, Carnegie only spent a few decades, and the speed of wealth accumulation is indeed dazzling.
However, Li Mu is not bad. Li Mu has seen the autobiography of tycoons such as Carnegie, Rockefeller, Morgan and so on. He is no stranger to the history of these tycoons. Reborn in this era, Li Mu is confident to be among them. One member, in this world, Li Mu is confident that his name will be widely advertised in the future.
Of course, Li Mu does not want to associate his name with the "robber", so Li Mu has to use a more legal and reasonable way to accumulate wealth.
Carnegie still does not have this awareness, and Carnegie's character does not allow Carnegie to give up, so although Li Mu explicitly rejected Carnegie's request to purchase a patent, Carnegie continued his efforts: "According to what I have You know, you did n’t join the idea of steel industry, so there are only two ways for this patent you want to turn into cash. Now that you have rejected one of them, that is to say, you want to retain the ownership of the patent, Collecting royalties, I understand that right. "
"That's right." Li Mu does not deny that it is really useless to keep this patent in his own hands. It is necessary to find a proper way to bring profits to Li Mu.
"Then can the patent use rights give me Carnegie-Micandris Steel Company, I can guarantee that your annual income will not be less than 5,000 US dollars." Carnegie has fully recognized Li Mu's inconvenience, What's more, Li Mu doesn't look like a person who lacks money, which makes Carnegie face the reality. Even if he can't monopolize the patent, it is good to get the right to use it.
"Of course you can, thank you very much for your appreciation, but 5,000 US dollars a year does not guarantee that only your family will be authorized. You must know how big the market for this small thing is." Li Mu must take the residual value to the greatest extent, even if it will To make Li Mu look abominable in Carnegie's eyes, Li Mu did not hesitate.
"Rim, don't be so greedy. The market for this little thing is not as big as you think. There is a fact that you may not know that after the Pacific Railroad is opened, the government's investment in railways is decreasing and people's enthusiasm is also decreasing. The demand for related aspects will also decrease accordingly, so you have to lower your psychological expectations so that you will not be disappointed. "Carnegie is a good lobbyist, and the argument sounds full.
What Carnegie is talking about is also half-truth. After the completion of the Pacific Railroad, the US government ’s investment in railways is indeed decreasing, but people ’s enthusiasm has not only decreased, but enthusiasm has increased. All railway-related company stocks are on Wall Street. Being sought after, people's reason is disappearing, and a huge disaster is coming.
But no one except Li Mu foresaw this fact.
"Really? If I had money now, I would use it to buy all of Yili's stock." Li Mu politely exposed Carnegie's lies and showed unusual familiarity with the US financial market.
Yili is not a milk company, but a company that manages the Yili Railway. Around the company's stock, financial predators Gould and Vanderbilt launched a "financial war" five years ago. Losing and losing, Gould and partner Drew were also deceived by Gould's design pit, and disappeared without a trace after losing $ 1.3 million. After Gould controlled Yili, the stock of Yili has risen steadily. Now Is the famous bull stock.
"Damn!" Carnegie finally turned his face, scolding angrily.
"Mr Andrew, think of your words." Will looked right.
Will must be a notorious villain before the treacherous merchants in Springfield, but Will was a loving father to Gloria and Sandy.
In the face of treacherous merchants, Will can start without hesitation, but in the presence of Gloria and Sandy, Will never even swears.
"Excuse me—" Carnegie apologized to Will a bit perfunctoryly, still looking at Li Mu: "So what do you want, Lim? Or, if I want to get the exclusive right to use the patent, then I What price should be paid? "
After finally occupying the initiative in negotiations, Li Mu smiled with satisfaction: "Mr. Andrew, as far as I know, your Carnegie-Micandris steel company has not yet opened?"
"Yes." Carnegie is not surprised that Li Mu knows this. Li Mu even knows such secret things as Carnegie's operation of a sleeper car company. Carnegie really can't think of Li Mu or what he doesn't know.
It is only now that Carnegie understands that it is a mistake for him to meet Li Mu so eagerly. If Carnegie can be more patient, maybe he will get better conditions. Sitting in front of Li Mu, although he is well-dressed, Carnegie has a kind of naked body standing on the open-air square, and his body is exposed to the public in such a faint manner that there is no trace of secrets at all.
This feeling made Carnegie uncomfortable.
"Like you said, with the passage of the Pacific Railroad, the government's investment in railways is decreasing. In the past eight years, the price of rails has fallen by 14%, so the current steel production capacity seems to be excess. , Then if you want to have a huge profit, a fist product is essential, which is exactly the purpose of your coming here-"Li Mu first talked about the right to use patents, but analyzed the current situation with Carnegie.
With Li Mu's analysis, the anger and anxiety on Carnegie's face had disappeared, and he began to become dignified.
Li Mu is right. The current steel capacity is indeed "seemingly" excess. Pittsburgh is the current steel center in the United States. Carnegie Carnegie-Micandris Steel Company will also be established in Pittsburgh. As far as Pittsburgh is concerned, most steel plants are just in their infancy, and no one steel company has a monopoly position, so Carnegie's company really needs a fist product if it wants to stand out.
"If you can, I hope to participate in your Carnegie-Micandris Steel Company through technology shares." Li Mu finally saw the truth and stated his true purpose.
"How many shares do you want to take?" Carnegie did not reject Li Mu's proposal. The current Carnegie must not have imagined how big Carnegie-McCandris Steel would be in the future.
"The more the better, it's OK to even inject capital, but I don't participate in the operation, the management right is yours." Li Mu guarantees Carnegie's power over Carnegie-Micandris Steel.
"We need to talk about this issue." Carnegie adjusted his collar and finally corrected his attitude, treating Li Mu as a potential partner.
