Xia Lei sold all the rights for the intelligent lathe he had brought back from Germany for 200,000,000 plus the previous 88,000,000. He would not build or give to anyone any drawings or related machine information from then on. However, he had not just simply stolen Josef’s design plans in Germany - he had ‘seen’ many things in his time there and also learnt quite a bit. All these could not be bought. 

Though China Industrial Group had bought all rights to Josef’s intelligent lathe, they could not buy the information in Xia Lei’s head. He could create the most suitable and most advanced lathe for Thunder Horse Manufacturing in a year and a half. This was why he had agreed quickly when Mu Jian-Feng gave the offer to buy. 

The transaction was done on the day itself and China Industrial Group paid 200,000,000 in cash to Xia Lei, tax free. Additionally, China Industrial Group would provide Thunder Horse Manufacturing with 20 different machines; lathes, drilling machine, milling machines and so on, all of the most advanced range available in China. They would also build a larger integrated workshop for Thunder Horse Manufacturing....
