Chapter 393 The first year of China’s aviation engine industry!
Liang Zhuoping would say this so bluntly. On the one hand, he was eager to get closer to Chang Haonan so he complimented him. On the other hand, he did take into account the latter's glorious resume in the past.
After meeting Chang Haonan for the second time in Ding Gaoheng's office, Liang Zhuoping, who had learned from the painful experience, quickly found all the project information that the other party had participated in and read it for several days.
In the end, I found that as long as Chang Haonan participated in the project, it would be "successfully completed according to plan".
If you are not careful, you will get some unexpected surprises.
And not only on the technical level, Chang Haonan also seems to have some amazing judgment in the overall direction.
Whether it is using domestic laws to initiate a compliance investigation on the Boeing-McDonnell Douglas merger, or using its own aircraft anti-icing technology to cooperate with the EU, it has ultimately proven to be a highly rewarding choice.
In short, it’s just two words, awesome.
In fact, Liang Zhuoping had heard some rumors before, saying that the reason why Ding Gaoheng, who was supposed to leave his leadership position, could continue to take over as director of the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense was largely because of the too much noise caused by Chang Haonan. Big, the superiors feel that we should seek stability at this time and not change generals on the spot.
Although there is no evidence, in general, the degree of truth of such rumors is often frightening.
What's more, Cao Gangchun, who was originally expected to take over the Science and Technology Commission, was unemployed for more than a month after resigning as deputy chief of staff, and then was appointed by Lightspeed as the head of the newly formed General Armament Department. This is also quite an abnormal situation.
Liang Zhuoping believed it anyway.
In this case, he almost naturally came to the conclusion -
Holding Chang Haonan's thigh tightly should help him sit more steadily in his current position.
Therefore, it is not surprising that he chose to unconditionally support any proposition of Chang Haonan.
After all, the most solid relationship is one where the interests of the two are completely tied together.
Of course, Chang Haonan didn't know, nor did he care much about Xiao Jiujiu in Liang Zhuoping's heart.
As the chairman of the Aviation Industry Corporation of China, the latter was still unattainable to him a year ago, and he could be considered an important figure half a year ago, but now...
Although he is still He won't be reduced to the level of a cat or a dog, but he is basically on an equal footing with him.
With the support of Ding Gaoheng and even higher-level officials, Liang Zhuoping, as a manager sandwiched in the middle, has less impact on specific projects than grassroots engineers like Lin Shikuan and Sun Huizhong. .
This is why many far-sighted companies, even if they want to reduce costs and increase efficiency, tend to use middle management first.
Because the absence of these people will not have a too bad impact on the operation of the organization.
At most, the senior managers need to do it themselves, and the workload will only increase.
On the other hand, some rubbish companies always start from the grassroots level when laying off employees. In the end, the number of employees who actually work has dropped sharply and people's hearts are floating, which has affected the company's core business. As a result, neither cost reduction nor ability has been achieved. Increase efficiency and eventually enter a vicious cycle.
……
Three days later, Hong Kong City.
As an officially-stamped and well-known coastal tourism, leisure, and resort destination, it has long been known as a health resort and conference capital.
Many official or business meetings will be held here.
The local International Convention Center is also relatively busy almost all year round.
Even the recent floods do not seem to have had any particularly obvious impact on this place.
The port city is less than 300km away from the capital, so flying would definitely be too much trouble, so Ding Gaoheng directly sent a special car to Chang Haonan to take him directly to the main venue.
Although Liang Zhuoping had said before that he could scan his face throughout the whole process, Chang Haonan still brought an invitation letter and attendance certificate to avoid embarrassing situations where someone could not recognize him.
However, when he got off the car and entered the International Conference Center, he found that he had underestimated his influence within the aviation industry system.
“Mr. Chang!”
Almost immediately after Chang Haonan entered the door, he heard a familiar voice coming from not far away.
Looking around, there were several people in suits standing there.
Among them is Zhong Shihong, director of the technical department of Factory 410, who is already very familiar with Chang Haonan.
"Minister Zhong, long time no see."
Chang Haonan stepped forward and shook hands with the other party.
"Mr. Chang, Comrade Shihong has now been promoted to the deputy general manager of Liming Engine Company (the formal name of Factory 410 at this time)."
Someone next to me joked with a slightly humorous tone.
"Oh? Then we really should change the title."
Chang Haonan also responded with a smile.
Hearing this, Zhong Shihong waved his hand quickly:
“No, no, this is all thanks to Mr. Chang. If there weren’t so many orders for the Turbojet 14, there wouldn’t be any The quality improvement brought about by the Seiko Project, let alone promotion, makes my head of the technical department almost embarrassed to continue working.”
"Mr. Chang, just call me Comrade Shihong or Zhong Gong."
After a brief greeting after the meeting, Zhong Shihong also introduced several other people next to him to Chang Haonan.
"This is Comrade Liu Yongquan, who has been responsible for the pre-research work on the third-generation turbofan engine project at the 606 Institute."
First of all, it was the first person who just talked to Chang Haonan. That one. Based on his face, this person should be about thirty years old, but his bald head is extremely conspicuous in the crowd, and it directly adds to his overall temperament by at least ten years.
"Hello, Mr. Chang."
Liu Yongquan also put away his joking tone and shook hands with Chang Haonan:
"When the turbojet 14 was improved last year, I told you I have heard the name, especially the method you proposed to control the flow inside the high-pressure compressor Ye Shan, which is simply enlightening to me. In the past six months, I have been working on high-aspect ratio blade bending. I have also done a lot of research on design, and I will give a report at the conference later. I hope you can give me some advice.”
Obviously, this person is also one of the many people who have been influenced and inspired by the latter. One of the researchers.
“It sounds like Liu Gong is very familiar with my work last year.”
Chang Haonan himself was a little surprised. After all, Zhong Shihong said that the other party had been responsible for the pre-research of the Turbofan 10, but his understanding of the specific work content of the Turbojet 14 project was as if he had personally participated.
“I feel ashamed to say that after I first heard your name, I took advantage of your meetings to sneak in and listen in a few times. I really benefited a lot.”
Liu Yongquan touched his bald head awkwardly and replied.
Although scientific research units do not engage in mentoring and mentoring like guild organizations in the past, this kind of thing is like attending a meeting of other people's research groups without permission.
Although it does not violate any rules, if you meet a tutor who is sensitive to this aspect (especially in the field of materials science), you will still be unhappy.
Anyone with a bad temper may drive people away directly.
Of course Chang Haonan definitely didn't care. He wished that when he explained the plan, engineers in the entire aviation industry system could hear it simultaneously.
There is another person Chang Haonan had a relationship with before. Zhang Zhenhua, the technical director of the 430 factory, is now responsible for the production process of the domestically produced turbofan 9.
In addition, there were also engineers who came from Bingcheng, Zhucheng, Rongcheng, Jianning and other places to attend the meeting.
Most of them, like Zhang Zhenhua and Zhong Shihong, are technicians in the production unit.
"For this meeting, our factory sent a total of nearly 50 people from grassroots management to technical backbones."
After introducing the people around him, Zhong Shihong pointed to the final preparations before the opening. Inside the venue:
“There are also about thirty or forty people from the 606 factory, and almost the same number from the 430 factory. In short, Mr. Chang, your appeal is really good. I have never seen you at the same meeting. After so many factories, even Bingcheng 122 Factory and Cidu 372 Factory, helicopter main engine factories that have little contact with us on weekdays, sent representatives here. As for 601 Factory and 112 Factory, they did not need to I said, I heard that this is what you want, so I applied directly to the head office to apply..."
"Original factory?"
Even Chang Haonan was stunned at this moment:
"I remember that this time I organized an industry conference for the aviation power industry..."
There are only other factories that have good personal relationships and close business contacts with him, but Factory 122 (directly 5 /Zhi9) and 372 Factory (Zhi8) are mainly engaged in the production of helicopters, which are very different from fixed-wing in terms of design, development principles and classification, because there has not been much contact between the two parties before.
"Flying hair does not separate families."
Liu Hongming next to him explained:
"I have a college classmate who is the representative sent by Factory 122 this time. ”
Another person also echoed:
“Yes, some people have said before that 1997 may be a milestone for our Chinese aerospace engine industry and the beginning of a new era.”
“ The invitation we received this time also said 'witness the first year of China's aero-engine industry'..."
...
The large number of people coming at least shows that everyone is either interested in him or not. This person attaches high enough importance to the aerospace engine industry. In short, it is a good thing.
But the abundance of rainbow farts still makes Chang Haonan a little unable to bear it.
In the end, he was the first to change the topic:
"By the way, Mr. Zhong, from what you just said, the speed at which our 410 factory produces the turbojet 14 should already be quite high?"
To be able to promote him, a technical director who is not yet old and has not yet come from within the aviation industry system, to the position of deputy general manager, obviously shows good results.
“It depends, if compared with before, the production efficiency is indeed higher because the yield rate has increased a lot. Now we can deliver at least 15-20 turbojet 14 and turbojet 14B every month. , but compared with the order demand, it is still a bit slow. Workers work overtime almost every day. Our new general manager Lin Zuoming is even considering adding a new production line to ensure supply.”
This is pure Versailles.
The engineers from other brother units nearby showed envy and hatred.
Same world, different worries.
The orders in their hands are so small that they can only give workers a rotation of holidays, but others are so busy that they can’t finish the work?
Chang Haonan did not expect this kind of plot to unfold:
"Is the production capacity of Factory 112 and Factory 132 so high? Can 20 engines be used every month?"
20 engines are equivalent to 10 J-8C or 20 J-7F every month , even if it is calculated as 15 aircraft in half, it is a production speed that the Chinese aviation industry cannot even imagine today.
“More than that.”
Zhong Shihong waved his hand:
“About one-third of the goods will be sent to Persia for overhaul and improvement. F4E, there are now dozens of people stationed there in Factory 112, and they can completely renovate 2-3 aircraft every month, and all of them are twin-engine, so the consumption is quite large.”
"That's it..."
Hearing this explanation, Chang Haonan suddenly realized.
Obviously, under his operation, China actually became a net exporter of aviation engines in 1997...
In this way, the "aviation engine industry leader" just now "year" is not entirely a propaganda slogan.
