Thinking about this, Huang Sheng stood up with a smile, pulled Liu Meng up, and shook his hand warmly, saying, "Younger brother, I haven't asked your name yet."
As this guy approached, a strong smell of cigarettes emanated from him, causing Liu Meng to wrinkle his nose. He also smiled and said, "Liu Meng, nice to meet you."
"Brother Liu Meng, can you really develop a remote-controlled small airplane? This seems much harder than a small car, right? I'm not doubting your abilities, but you don't look that old," Huang Sheng said with some hesitation.
Liu Meng smiled confidently and said, "A hero is not judged by his background or age. Mr. Huang, prepare a large remote-controlled car, a soldering iron, a welding torch, and some common electronic components for me."
This was the rhythm of on-site modification. Huang Sheng was delighted and quickly led Liu Meng to the small workshop's laboratory. The equipment was quite complete, with various circuit board development tools and a full range of common electronic components. There was even equipment for making circuit boards, though it could only produce four-layer boards, not too precise ones.
This greatly exceeded Liu Meng's expectations. He really didn't expect such a black workshop to have such a laboratory.
"Brother, the conditions in my lab are pretty good, right? To be honest, our company may not be large, but we do value technological innovation," Huang Sheng said confidently.
Liu Meng thought to himself, "You should stop it. The lab is empty, and many devices are covered in dust, clearly unused for a long time. Are you going to die if you don't brag?"
He just smiled and didn't say anything, starting to work.
The principles of remote control for a small car and a small airplane are the same. The remote control range of the small car is too short, but it can still be modified for a demonstration. The other aspect is the motor drive. The small car already has a motor, so it just needs to be modified and a small airplane propeller added.
He also asked Huang Sheng for a small fan. Although the propeller was not very effective, it could be used for the experiment.
This work took two hours. Huang Sheng sat beside him the whole time, only leaving to go to the bathroom once, showing great patience.
"Mr. Huang, let's go outside to an open area for a demonstration," Liu Meng said after assembling a simplified version of the remote-controlled airplane.
"Brother Liu, you're really amazing," Huang Sheng said, giving him a thumbs up. He had watched the entire process, and Liu Meng's skill really impressed him, far surpassing the old engineer he had hired before.
Outside, Liu Meng held the modified small airplane and started the remote control test. The propeller rotated, and the airplane slowly lifted off the ground, rising to about two meters.
"The motor power of the remote-controlled car is not enough, so it can only rise this high. For real development, both the remote control and the motor need to be optimized. The motor should be replaced with a more powerful and high-performance permanent magnet synchronous motor," Liu Meng explained while controlling the airplane.
After flying for a while, the modified structure caused the airplane to drop and crash, breaking into several pieces.
"Rough and ready, it can only be used for a demonstration," Liu Meng said.
"No problem, no problem. Brother Liu, I've never been impressed by anyone, but today I'm really impressed by you. You're too amazing. I think even the senior engineers from big companies can't match your level," Huang Sheng said, warmly patting Liu Meng's shoulder.
"Too much praise, Mr. Huang. Do you think we should sign a contract for me to develop this product for you?"
"Let's not rush, let's not rush. It's almost two o'clock. Let's have lunch first," Huang Sheng said, his mind turning and enthusiastically pulling Liu Meng to his office.
The office was quite large and well-decorated, looking much more luxurious from the inside than from the outside. In the center was a large painting of a tiger descending a mountain, a huge sofa, a massive desk, and a large bookshelf filled with business legends like "Bill Gates and the Microsoft Empire" and "Steve Jobs and His Apple."
Liu Meng thought, "This guy has big ambitions."
While Liu Meng was modifying the airplane, Huang Sheng had already instructed his secretary, Xiu Na, to order a table of dishes at a nearby restaurant, with a good mix of cold and hot dishes, meat and vegetables, quite a variety.
"Xiu Na..." Huang Sheng called out loudly.
Soon, his secretary walked in with a seductive gait, wearing a very tight dress that clearly showed her curvy hips and ample chest. Her figure was top-notch, and with her catwalk, her chest jiggled. Her hair was in big waves, and her face was quite pretty, with large, bold features and a big, bright red mouth, exuding a wild charm.
Seeing her, Huang Sheng couldn't help but feel a surge of desire and said, somewhat discontentedly, "How can you not bring wine to entertain Brother Liu? Go get the bottle of old village chief I've been saving for ten years. Let's have a few good drinks with Brother Liu today; we hit it off at first sight."
While scolding her, his eyes couldn't help but show his desire.
Xiu Na didn't care that Liu Meng was sitting there and gave him a big, flirtatious look, her eyes almost dripping with water, making Huang Sheng feel hot all over again.
"Boss Huang, last time when your brother came, you didn't even bring it out. Why are you willing to do it this time?" Xiu Na pouted, almost pressing her body against Huang Sheng. Huang Sheng chuckled and took the opportunity to pinch her buttocks, feeling the plump elasticity.
"I hit it off with Brother Liu at first sight. Your wasteful brother can't compare. Bring it quickly and have a few more drinks with Brother Liu," Huang Sheng said with a hearty laugh, enthusiastically urging Liu Meng to eat.
Liu Meng ate a few bites and put down his chopsticks, saying, "Boss Huang, how should we sign the contract?"
Huang Sheng waved his hand, raised his glass, and said with a smile, "Let's eat first. We'll talk after we're full. Come, come, have another drink. This wine is smooth after being aged for a long time."
Reluctantly, Liu Meng had to keep drinking, gradually feeling a bit dizzy.
As they drank, Huang Sheng secretly observed Liu Meng. His drinking capacity was quite good; he didn't seem affected by a whole bottle. Seeing Liu Meng drink so much but still remain calm, his face only slightly flushed, Huang Sheng laughed heartily and raised his glass again.
After a satisfying meal and drinks, Huang Sheng pulled Liu Meng to sit on the sofa.
"Boss Huang, can we talk about the cooperation now?" Liu Meng asked calmly.
"Brother, I'm a few years older than you and have more social experience. Don't worry, I won't let you down. Here's my offer: 20,000 yuan," Huang Sheng said warmly, patting his chest to guarantee it.
Liu Meng knew that people like Huang Sheng, who were so close, had no good intentions. They were trying to lower the price. A young person with a thin skin might have been swayed and agreed.
"Boss Huang, I also feel very close to you, like a big brother. But you can't treat your brother like this. We both know the profit margin of the small airplane. My price is this much," Liu Meng said, holding up five fingers.
Huang Sheng still smiled and invited Liu Meng to have tea, saying, "Brother, I trust you. We will have more cooperation opportunities in the future. However, the small airplane is quite expensive, and the sales are uncertain. I have a lot of risk if I invest too much. If you want this price, I think it's worth it. How about this: you develop it first, and after three months of sales, regardless of the results, I will pay you this amount."
Liu Meng cursed inwardly, "Do you think I'm an idiot? Three months later! If you refuse to pay, what can I do? It's just an excuse to lower the price."
"This won't work. We should sign a development contract with three payments. I'll make a slight concession on the price, but this is the best I can do," Liu Meng insisted.
Huang Sheng pondered for a moment, stood up, and patted Liu Meng's shoulder, saying, "Brother, for our first cooperation, I feel you are very reliable. I'll take the risk. I'll add another 10,000 yuan, and we'll have three payments. I trust you, so we don't need to sign a contract. That's it. Let's go out and relax after drinking."
Saying this, he pulled Liu Meng out.
Liu Meng had no choice but to get into Huang Sheng's car, which was a very popular SANTANA. The car was sprayed with so much perfume that it was almost suffocating.
Since he really needed the money, Liu Meng didn't insist further. He decided to take the money and go along with Huang Sheng. They arrived at a massage parlor, and it was clear that Huang Sheng was a regular. The boss greeted him, "Boss Huang is here."
