Chapter 249 Can be manufactured, but not mass-produced?(2/2)
"Okay, I'll do it right away."
With that said, Gao Yongyu turned and left the office.
Tang Changhong, who stayed in the office, frowned, staring at the figure of the "2.6 tons" gap, wondering what he was thinking.
On the other side, NPU.
Chen Guo soon received a request for help from Institute 603. His first reaction was to find Chen Nian to discuss it, but he soon came to his senses:
This is not a problem that Chen Nian can solve.
——
Of course, if you call him, he is likely to design a series of equipment required for T800L material manufacturing in a short period of time, just like the hot isostatic pressing furnace and single crystal furnace he originally designed.
But the problem is that even with these technologies, the plight of the 603 Institute cannot be completely solved in a short time.
Mature supporting production lines require a lot of time to manufacture and debug, not to mention the H-20 project, etc. This kind of development method that wants to grasp all the technologies in one's hands regardless of priority is inherently uneconomical.
.
The best solution is actually to find a way to introduce a set of advanced equipment from abroad, as Tang Changhong suggested.
With the equipment, combined with the already complete technology and process, T800L - not only T800L, but also various other types of carbon fiber materials can be mass-produced.
More importantly, reverse engineering of these devices may also solve problems with the devices themselves and lay the foundation for long-term development.
Isn’t this better than leaving all problems to Chen Nianqiang?
——
But the question is, how to do it?
What the country has tried for nearly 30 years, but still failed to achieve in the end, can we really have a good result here?
He took a look at the list submitted by Tang Changhong. The companies on it were either island countries or Europeans, and many of them belonged to the Five Eyes Alliance countries.
Wanting them to provide production lines is pure wishful thinking.
Chen Guo shook her head while reading, picked up a pen and crossed out the companies on the list one by one.
At the end of the row, the remaining four companies were all island companies!
It seems that this time, we will inevitably have to discuss business with them.
Fortunately, due to the previous problems with the THAAD system, the tense relationship between China and the island countries has been loosened. In addition, the United States' behavior of exporting the financial crisis has made the island countries extremely dissatisfied. Under the circumstances, will they still abide by Batumi?
The treaty is also unknown.
A person will not have too many principles and bottom lines in extremely difficult times.
The same is true for a country.
I heard that the quarterly financial reports of several pillar companies in the island country are so bad that they cannot be read. Their income has been cut in half, their bones have been broken, and their official fiscal revenue has hit rock bottom.
In this case, it shouldn't be too difficult to let them sell some of their belongings, right?
Thinking of this, Chen Guo suddenly felt confident.
Perhaps, technical problems do not necessarily need to be solved entirely by technical means.
However, before formally contacting them, you still need to prepare a strategy in advance.
We can't let them see our urgency, lest they sit back and raise the price.
This part of the work will be left to the monkeys in the Civil Development Office.
A few days later, all companies on the list received the same inquiry email.
The content of the email is very simple, it is a request to purchase the most advanced carbon fiber production lines from each company.
Regardless of the technical strength of each company, regardless of whether there is a comparison of the pros and cons of each company's products, all are treated equally.
This time, the Office of Civil Development showed an attitude of not rejecting anyone who came.
As long as you are willing to give it, then I dare to take it.
Moreover, in the inquiry email, the Office of Civil Development also vaguely revealed a meaning:
“Prices are preferred, first come first served.”
In other words, whoever is willing to be the first to make contact will have priority in obtaining the preferential conditions provided by Huaxia.
Of course, the premise is that the negotiations can continue.
This email caused quite a stir in the circle of carbon fiber equipment manufacturers. However, this does not mean that all manufacturers will buy into Huaxia’s account.
In Germany, Scholz Autoclaves responded to the email first.
They politely expressed their gratitude to Huaxia for the inquiry, but at the same time, they regretfully explained that their products could not meet Huaxia's requirements and they could only refuse this cooperation.
Subsequently, Miller Italia of Italy, FOREST-LINE of France, and Electroimpact of the United States responded one after another refusing to cooperate.
Their attitude was very firm, without any politeness, and without any room for leeway.
Of course, the most determined one is MAG Cincinnati of the United States.
They were not even willing to go through the normal reply process and simply ignored the inquiry email.
After a round of screening, in addition to second-tier companies like KR in the UK, only three companies from the island country were left that expressed their willingness to cooperate.
Kawasaki, Mitsubishi, Hanyuta.
The three companies have expressed a positive desire for cooperation and are even willing to send representatives to China for interviews.
This result was not at all unexpected by Chen Guo.
After all, those companies in Europe are all serious about old money, and they are somewhat "aristocratic" in nature, so they will not switch sides regardless of a financial crisis.
USA?
They had refused to cooperate before, but this time, it was just a routine inquiry.
Only an island country, a nation with no sense of propriety, justice or shame, would abandon its master without hesitation after he died.
They have no control over what chain reactions will occur after carbon fiber technology is given to China.
As long as you give them enough money, they will even dare to bite their master.
Chapter completed!
