Improved hand-cranked computers are important, but investors' profits must also be guaranteed, and 20 percent is an appropriate percentage, and Roque does not intend to change the status quo.

This is not a question of how much the patent of the modified hand-cranked computer is worth, but an equity game between the investor and the inventor of the patent, and the common law system is mainly expressed in case law, if Roque agrees to Harrison Cooper's request, then in the future, the foreign investment of Nyasaland and the RAND Bank will follow the 30% share ratio, which will have a serious impact on the profits of the Nyasaland company and the RAND Bank.

Roque now has to try to balance the interests of all parties internally, so that Roque will inevitably have to be with the mud many times, and now every decision Roque makes will affect the interests of tens of millions of people, and Roque has to be cautious.

"Lord, even twenty-five percent—" Harrison Cooper worked hard to fight for the interests of Nyasaland Heavy Industries, which had been under a lot of pressure lately.

Before the World War, there was only one company in Southern Africa in the automotive sector, Nyasaland Automotive Group, but then Nyasaland Heavy Industries and Nyasaland Automotive Group were spun off, and the two companies officially competed.

Roque is also a last resort, if the enterprise has a monopoly position in an industry, then it is indeed able to guarantee the profits of the enterprise, but at the same time, it will also lead to the loss of enterprise enterprising spirit and sense of competition, Nyasaland Automobile Group has exposed some problems in the previous competition with Ford Motor, if Roque does not solve it in time, then Nyasaland Automobile Group will lose competitiveness against Ford Motor.

Objectively speaking, compared with Ford Motor, Nyasaland Automotive Group has many advantages, such as the most intuitive labor cost, and Nyasaland Automotive Group has a huge advantage compared with Ford Motor.

In 1914, Ford workers were paid five dollars an hour, and the working day dropped to just eight hours.

Because of the large number of African-American employees, Nyasaland Automotive Group has a great advantage over Ford Motor Co., Ltd., and even in this case, Ford Motor Co., Ltd. still reduced the price of the car to only 360 US dollars, which is nearly 40 percent lower than the cheapest car of Nyasaland Auto Group.

This situation is enough to make Roque vigilant, now it seems that the situation of Nyasaland Automobile Group is not bad, but once Ford Motor attacks Europe, the profits of Nyasaland Automobile Group will be greatly affected, instead of passively waiting for Ford's attack, Roque simply spun off Nyasaland Automobile Group, deliberately introduced competition, and stimulated Nyasaland Automobile Group and Nyasaland Heavy Industries to take the initiative to change.

Not only in the automotive sector, but also in other areas, such as Nyasaland and RAND Bank in the investment field, they also started to compete in the investment field, and Roque did not favor Nyasaland and Bank.

After the end of the world war, the production of armored vehicles and tanks mainly produced by Nyasaland Heavy Industries has plummeted, and Nyasaland Heavy Industries has had to let tank factories produce tractors and armored car factories produce cars in order to actively adapt to market changes.

Tractors are good to say, farms in southern Africa have a great demand for tractors, the transformation of armored vehicles is very difficult, in the southern African and European markets, Nyasaland Automobile Group has a first-mover advantage, for different grades of consumer groups to launch different grades of models, Nyasaland Heavy Industries to open this market, it is necessary to ensure that Nyasaland Heavy Industries' products have some advantages over the products of Nyasaland Automobile Group.

That's the truth, but it's very difficult to do.

"Harrison, don't focus on the number of shares, five percent will not be of much help to Nyasaland Heavy Industries, try to find new profit points." Roque's decision will not change, instead of competing for a share of the cake, it is better to find a way to make the cake bigger.

"Sir, Nyasaland Heavy Industries is in difficulty right now, and we need more help." Harrison Cooper finally talked about the main body, he is not here to fight for shares at all, but to support.

"If there is any difficulty, as long as Ada and Sam can help, I believe they will not refuse." The support that Roque can give will definitely be given, and if he can't withstand Ford's attack, then Roque will be held accountable.

"It's not about the money, Lord, Nyasaland Heavy Industries needs your help." Harrison Cooper has a clear goal, Nyasaland Heavy Industries is not short of money, during the World War, he made at least tens of millions of dollars by selling tanks and armored vehicles, and his cash flow is unprecedentedly abundant.

"Help what? Let me tell you what kind of cars should be produced to sell? I don't know, you should ask Ada and Sam about this, go to their research company and do a market research to see what kind of cars our citizens and farmers need, and then you can make what kind of cars. "Roque is now gradually diluting its influence on the company, if Roque is willing, then Roque can indeed give some suggestions to Nyasaland Heavy Industries, such as pickups, such as SUVs, these models have potential demand, but what Roque wants now is not profits, but the ability of enterprises to develop independently.

To put it bluntly, those things in Roque's memory will sooner or later become a reality little by little, and if Roque uses up all the "golden fingers" by then, but the enterprises of Nyasaland still do not have the ability to develop independently, the enterprises of Nyasaland will be eliminated from the market sooner or later.

Because of business needs, Nyasaland and RAND Bank have research companies, don't underestimate the role of survey companies, those survey reports set for the target group are very important for the development of enterprises.

"What kind of cars do citizens and farmers need—" Harrison Cooper thought, but not yet had an epiphany.

"What else could be needed? The price is lower, the performance is better-" Ida finally spoke, there are some things that everyone knows, but no one will take the initiative to do it without external force.

"We need lower fuel consumption, we haven't found a high-yield oil field in southern Africa so far, all the oil has to be transported all the way from Port Elizabeth, if the car can reduce fuel consumption, then it will also relieve some pressure on Adan company." Sam also actively put forward his opinion, people who can be the general manager are not stupid, sometimes they look stupid and they are pretending.

"And then there's the safety issue, the cars produced by the Nyasaland Automotive Group are still canvas roofs, and you didn't think of replacing canvas roofs with fixed roofs?" Roque is purely complaining, the mindset is really terrible, and the Nyasaland Automotive Group is also self-contained.

"I see, I see, I know what to do—" It dawned on Harrison Cooper that something was actually a layer of window paper that would break when stabbed.

After solving Harrison Cooper's problem, Roque turned his gaze to Ada.

"Okay, okay, I know, I'll go back and ask Yanni to withdraw the patent application." Adado was smart and immediately took the initiative to gag Roque's mouth.

Not only did Roque have nothing to say, but his chest was also a little blocked, so he looked at Sam.

Sam looked innocent, and the Nyasaland company did not have a patent for Nyasaland Heavy Industries to register.

"The two of you can invest in the factory of the improved hand-cranked computer at the same time, and you can coordinate the specific equity distribution yourself-" Roque wants to maximize the advantages, Nyasaland and the RAND Bank have investment business, and the two together are not only conducive to reducing risks, but also the two work together, the improved hand-cranked computer can occupy the market in the shortest possible time, which is beneficial to everyone.

It's not good for those existing hand-cranked computer companies, but who cares about them, who makes them unable to improve hand-cranked computers in time, business competition is like this, if you don't advance against the current, you will retreat.

"Half a family." Ida is decisive, and Rand Bank and Nyasaland certainly cooperate while competing, which is the same as Nyasaland Automotive Group and Nyasaland Heavy Industries, although these two are separated, they also have cooperation, and the new technology developed by Nyasaland Automotive Group is also used by Nyasaland Heavy Industries, of course, the cost is inevitable.

"As you wish—" Sam doesn't resist, even if Ida doesn't let Nyasaland invest, Sam won't be angry, and if there are more investment opportunities, Sam won't lose a big deal because of a small one.

"The next thing we're going to do is to spin off Nyasaland Power and Nyasaland Military, gasoline engines, diesel engines, gearboxes, pistols, shotguns - try to make at least two companies compete with each other in each market segment, and now these companies are living too comfortably, and we have to find something for them to do." Roque wants to resolutely adjust the existing enterprises, after the world war, the pace of global integration is accelerating, and Roque wants to make Nyasaland's enterprises as competitive as possible to face the challenges of the future world.

Yes, in many areas, it is indeed Southern Africa that is facing challenges from all over the world, such as aviation.

The world war made the whole world truly realize the power of airplanes.

After the end of the World War, European airlines have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and many airlines have national backing behind them, and Nyasaland Airlines is facing unprecedented challenges.

Fortunately, Nyasaland Airlines had a huge advantage, and after the end of the World War, Nyasaland Airlines' civil aircraft were so popular that orders from Europe and the United States were once again flying like snowflakes, and factories were working overtime to fulfill those orders in time.

Nyasaland Airlines is still making continuous improvements to its commercial aircraft while the supply of commercial aircraft is in short supply, and the technology research and development is endless.
