The discussion about Qian Jia Optics didn't last long.

That evening, the major boss of Qian Jia Optics personally contacted someone from Zhong Wei Technology and finally obtained the contact information for the owner of the FY-01 material from Peng Fan.

At the same time, the latest developments regarding screen optical materials on the patent network and some personal information about Zhou Feiyu were also uncovered.

In modern information society, as long as you have a mobile phone number, you can basically find out a person's basic information; it's impossible to prevent.

The major boss of Qian Jia Optics was greatly shocked, never expecting that an optical material with performance comparable to the King would be developed by an unknown material research and development engineer. If this matter were exposed and promoted by the media, who knows how many experts and top industry figures would be slapped in the face.

There are no secrets that time does not reveal.

The actions of Qian Jia Optics and the recent events at Zhong Wei Technology were naturally discovered by those with keen eyes.

Apart from Hua Long Technology, other manufacturers in the industry might have been a bit slow, unaware of the inside story and not paying much attention. However, Di Guang Optics, as a competitor of Qian Jia Optics, had been particularly tense and sensitive during this period. They quickly obtained detailed information and were immediately plunged into shock and worry.

"We need to act quickly while it's still early, otherwise, if this astonishing news breaks out on the market, not to mention the future, just looking at the present, the stock price is likely to hit the limit down."

The people at Di Guang Optics were very vigilant and obtained information about Zhou Feiyu at the first opportunity, deciding to take the initiative.

Di Guang Optics, like Qian Jia Optics, is a listed company, a major giant in the field of optical materials with a market value exceeding ten billion. Naturally, they were particularly worried about the exposure and spread of the news.

The next day, the sun rose, another sunny day.

Having already received news from Director Dong that the loan could be approved next week, Zhou Feiyu was in a cheerful mood. After breakfast, he sent a piece of FY-01 material to Zhong Wei Company and then prepared to go out for a spring outing and study.

The company had already been registered, and all manufacturing data and equipment modification plans were completed. All that was needed was the startup capital to acquire the factory, and then trial production could begin. After everything went smoothly, normal stocking would follow. Therefore, Zhou Feiyu immediately shifted his focus back to studying, which was his foundation.

Unexpectedly, two unfamiliar company calls came in one after another, causing Zhou Feiyu's mood to immediately fluctuate.

"President Zhou, hello, I am Xiao Weidong, Vice President of Di Guang Optics Technology Co., Ltd. I apologize for the interruption, but I would like to discuss cooperation with you..."

"President Zhou, hello, I am Yang Jiacheng, Chairman of Qian Jia Optics. I apologize for the interruption, but I would like to discuss cooperation with you. I heard that you have developed an optical material with performance exceeding the King. It's truly remarkable and greatly boosts the prestige of our countrymen. I am greatly impressed..."

One was Di Guang Optics, the other Qian Jia Optics. They called him one after another, both around 8:30 AM. He didn't know if they had planned it, but he was sure they had calculated his time.

8:30 AM, this time was neither too early nor too late.

"Cooperation? It seems they've all heard the news about the FY-01 material and are eager to find me."

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Feiyu was secretly surprised.

The material he gave to Hua Long Technology was only about two sheets of A4 paper, which was not even enough for Hua Long Technology itself, so they definitely wouldn't give it away. Obviously, after hearing the news, these two companies didn't even verify whether the FY-01 material was truly powerful and came directly to him with great fanfare.

This was somewhat beyond his expectation. He had originally anticipated that other material manufacturers would only react and flock to him after his material was officially put into production and mass-produced for Hua Long Technology.

Now it seemed that these material manufacturers were extremely concerned about any slight disturbance in the market. It was a case of宁可杀错一千,不可放过一个 (better to kill a thousand by mistake than to let one escape).

Zhou Feiyu replied to Di Guang and Qian Jia, agreeing to talk and asking them to send people to Nanjiang County, Nanjiang Province. They should call him when they arrived.

At this time, Zhou Feiyu also canceled his plan for a spring outing and study. Instead, he found a friend in the county town and asked him to introduce a local lawyer to assist him with legal issues related to business negotiations.

On the other side, in Peng City.

The people from Di Guang Optics and Qian Jia Optics wasted no time after hanging up the phone and immediately booked high-speed train tickets for that morning, heading directly to Nanjiang County, Nanjiang Province.

In just over three hours, both teams arrived at their destination simultaneously.

The station in Nanjiang County was undoubtedly very small. As expected, before they even left the station, the two teams ran into each other.

When acquaintances who are also competitors meet, the situation is naturally quite awkward.

"President Xiao of Di Guang, you're here too."

Yang Jiacheng recognized the other party. It was Xiao Weidong, the Vice President of Di Guang Optics. He had a deep impression of him and knew he was a capable and decisive figure within Di Guang Optics.

In an instant, he understood the other party's purpose, which was clearly the same as his. Otherwise, in a backwater place like Nanjiang County, with no resources and no supply chain, material manufacturers wouldn't come at all.

"Director Yang, you actually came in person!"

Xiao Weidong naturally understood instantly as well, but he was very surprised and thought to himself, This is bad. This old guy actually came in person. He's giving this a lot of face.

He couldn't help but think that their boss at Di Guang Optics hadn't come in person due to his status, so he, a vice president, had come on his behalf.

In the past, his presence as Xiao Weidong would have been enough.

But now, compared to Qian Jia Optics, where the big boss came in person, his presence as a vice president seemed a bit insufficient and showed a lack of importance.

Yang Jiacheng shrugged: "There's nothing I can do. My company is always on the verge of bankruptcy, so I'm always trembling with fear, walking on thin ice."

Xiao Weidong smiled wryly: "Director Yang is really good at joking. This time, Di Guang miscalculated."

Yang Jiacheng, however, smiled slightly and said: "Since both of our companies are here, in order not to harm each other's interests and become the clam and the egret fighting while the fisherman benefits, let's discuss this."

Xiao Weidong was startled, then immediately agreed: "Director Yang's insight is truly admirable, I am very impressed."

Subsequently, the two discussed their respective prepared chips and the order in which they would meet Zhou Feiyu for a while. Only then did they call Zhou Feiyu one after another to arrange a meeting.

Di Guang Optics' Xiao Weidong arranged the meeting first. According to Yang Jiacheng, the younger person should go first.

Xiao Weidong didn't stand on ceremony either.

Both companies naturally had their own plans. They had originally hesitated about whether to come forward and contact Zhou Feiyu so early, but now it seemed they were fortunate to have come, otherwise they would have lost the initiative.

Zhou Feiyu naturally didn't know about the discussions behind the scenes between the two companies. After arranging the meeting, he first hosted Xiao Weidong and his group at a local teahouse.

After some pleasantries, Xiao Weidong first proposed to see Zhou Feiyu's material and visit his company and equipment production line, etc.

"The material is here, and President Xiao can also take it back for verification, but a non-disclosure agreement must be signed first. As for visiting the company and equipment production line, let's do that next time. We're just starting out now."

Zhou Feiyu took out a piece of the FY-01 material that had been prepared long ago and handed it to Xiao Weidong, then motioned for the lawyer beside him to simultaneously hand over a non-disclosure agreement.

Xiao Weidong's heart immediately sank, knowing that cooperation wouldn't be so easy.

"So thin!"

Upon receiving the material, Xiao Weidong was surprised again. This was the first time he had held the FY-01 material, which was rumored to be miraculous at Hua Long Technology and Zhong Wei Technology. It truly had its extraordinary qualities.

For nothing else, just for this thickness, it could indirectly reflect the powerful performance of FY-01.

Furthermore, Zhou Feiyu's confidence in giving him the material for verification also indirectly showed Zhou Feiyu's confidence in the FY-01 material technology, not fearing them doing reverse engineering at all.

This point was undoubtedly more terrifying, as it meant the technological exclusivity of this material!

If it was true, then whether it was Di Guang or Qian Jia, they would have to choose to cooperate with Zhou Feiyu, otherwise the consequences would be too severe for them to bear.

What needed to be discussed still had to be discussed. After putting down the material, Xiao Weidong proposed Di Guang Optics' conditions: "Di Guang is prepared to cooperate with President Zhou with two plans. One plan is to invest twenty-five million yuan in exchange for 25% of the shares in President Zhou's hands; the other plan is to buy out the material patent in President Zhou's hands for fifty million yuan, and Di Guang will exclusively enjoy the production and sales rights of this material in the future..."
