Chapter 482 Ask Mr. Chang for his opinion
After all, they are supervisors with a technical background, and their future work prospects are also involved, so the two people naturally moved very quickly.
At noon the next day, an official letter written in Chinese and English was delivered to the desktop of Ren Bingda, deputy general manager of Haojing Aviation Engine Group Company (actually the main unit of Factory 430).
Official documents written by the British are naturally quite long and full of long and difficult sentences that are not easy to understand even if they are translated.
However, after reading the first few lines of content, the expression on Ren Bingda's face quickly changed from impatience to joy.
After watching it from beginning to end, he seemed to be still a little bit unsatisfied, so he went back and watched it a second time.
Such a move naturally aroused the curiosity of another person sitting on the sofa next to him.
"Old Ren, what are you looking at? Turn it over and over."
Gao Ning, deputy director of the production department of 430 Factory.
Since Zhang Zhenhua has been stationed in Shengjing a few months ago, he is currently mainly responsible for the production tasks of the entire factory.
Of course, there is nothing easy to produce at the moment...
"Good stuff..."
The index finger of Ren Bingda's right hand flicked the edge of the page a few times, making a crisp sound. Clicking sound:
“I can’t believe that Luoluo Company will take the initiative to negotiate terms with us one day...”
Gao Ning, who had just picked up a cup of tea, paused and raised his hand. Hanging in mid-air:
"Negotiating terms? What terms?"
"Of course it's the price, oh, and the timetable for technology transfer."
Ren Bingda said as he put the documents back on the table with a proud look on his face. look.
As the leader in charge of daily business docking with Ciro Company, he can naturally read the meaning of the other party from the British writing habits.
What "finalize the component procurement plan for next year as soon as possible and update the specific content in the technology transfer list".
Isn't it just that the year is coming to an end, and China still hasn't shown the need for additional orders, so it's urgent.
"Huh..."
Gao Ning took a sip of tea and shook his head gently:
"What were you doing earlier? I only think about it now and am anxious...It's too late... ..."
He and Ren Bingda had dealt with the British in the past two years, and they had suffered countless sullen experiences.
Many times, either others do it intentionally, or they inadvertently show condescension in ordinary communication, which makes people even more irritated.
As for the Spey Engine business, the profit margin is quite terrifying.
Especially the finished parts.
After all, to the British, these things are just some items in the inventory that are almost useless. If there was no such thing as Ciro Company, they would probably be prepared to be destroyed.
For this reason, Adam and George have a considerable say in pricing.
Anyway, no matter how much you earn, you will make money.
The reason they have refused to lower prices before is because they have grasped China’s urgent need for the localization of Sibei.
You have no choice anyway, even if the price is higher, the business can still be done.
This idea was indeed correct when we negotiated the establishment of Ciro Company two years ago, and China did accept it.
But now...
Times have changed, my lord.
“But, having said that.”
Ren Bingda is not a newbie after all. After the excitement of the situation was over, he quickly collected his emotions and started to think about business:
< br>“We really need to think about the future positioning of our Xiluo company.”
“Positioning problem?”
Gao Ning was stunned for a moment:
“Yesterday afternoon, I called Minister Zhang, and he said that if nothing unexpected happens, the complete localization of the turbofan 9 improved engine will be achieved by the middle of next year. "I think the historical mission of Xiro Company is about to come to an end, right?" The cadres' sensitivity in company management is indeed much different.
“Ciro Company was indeed set up to promote the localization of Sibei.”
Ren Bingda took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and took out two, but Gao Ning said that he was quitting smoking, so he had to put one of them into his mouth, struck a match and lit it, and continued:
" Although there is no need to rely on the British for this model of Sibei, it would still be a pity if this table was thrown away like this. "
Gao Ning, who was sitting on the sofa, was in the process of quitting smoking. It was naturally difficult to control some people who smoked. They unconsciously increased the frequency of drinking tea while talking:
“If you don’t throw it away, then use it to train young students.”
“Some time ago In order to participate in the Taihang project, you withdrew the experienced old guys from Xiro Company and replaced them with dozens of young people who had just joined the company a few years ago. Don’t you also have this idea?”
Ren Bingda was not embarrassed when his purpose was revealed:
"Hey, let's squeeze out the surplus value of capitalism..."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and waved it away. Smoke lingering in front of our eyes:
“However, these two British people obviously felt something was wrong. Isn’t that why they sent us this letter.”
“Yes. I say, if it’s bad, it’s bad. Anyway, the money we invested in this Xiluo company is not too much. Now that the strong man has broken his arm, the loss will be less.”
Gao Ning still meant to cut directly.
But Ren Bingda waved his hand:
“After all, Rolls-Royce is one of the three largest aero-engine manufacturers in the world and plays a decisive role in the entire aviation manufacturing field. "
"Although Xiluo Company is not large in scale, the business scope it was approved for was very wide. It is a bridge between us and Rolls-Royce. If possible, I still hope to retain it. , even if it is worth raising a few useless British people for the time being."
In fact, if it had been last year, Ren Bingda's thoughts would not be any different from Gao Ning's.
But this year, he received a huge stimulus from his neighbor, the Haojing Aircraft Industry Group.
Originally, everyone's level is about the same level. Let's not talk about the food. Anyway, we can barely make ends meet and hug each other to keep warm.
But due to a wave of cool operations at the beginning of the year, Haofei took off immediately.
The MA-60 has obtained airworthiness qualifications from both Europe and the United States through the Mutual Recognition of Airworthiness Agreement, and has signed a contract with Bangkok Airways, achieving a wave of export earnings.
What’s even more awesome is that they also sent technicians to France to work with Airbus to transform two A330 passenger planes into A330AIT icing water sprayers specially used for simulated icing experiments.
In the past, China hired technical personnel from Europe and the United States at high prices to guide its business. Who would have thought that it would suddenly have the opportunity to make a comeback?
This is something worth writing about.
In comparison, the Haojing Aero Engine Group, also located in Haojing, pales in comparison.
And Ren Bingda was naturally not content with this.
That’s why I thought of stabilizing the Siro company first. When I have the opportunity in the future, I can also have a serious technical cooperation with the British, and even reverse export!
In addition, doing so will also help maintain their position in the field of aerodynamics.
Considering that the two super large projects of Turbojet 14 and Turbofan 10 were both settled in Shengjing, anyone with a discerning eye can see that other domestic aerospace development and research units will definitely be outclassed in terms of technical strength.
But if Haojing can pave the way for international cooperation with Luo Luo in advance...
At least it will still have some say in the channel.
Of course, it’s hard to talk about this little idea in public.
"Then what should we do?"
Gao Ning put the empty cup back on the table:
"I heard Minister Zhang say yesterday that the turbofan 9A built by the 606 Institute has caused Sibei Many of the original designs of the MK202 have been changed. Even if we want to continue to pay for this, the British can't supply the goods."
Ren Bingda nodded and put out the cigarette butt with some distress:
“Of course I know this, so my initial idea is to see if there is anything that we just need and the British are willing to let go of, at least to maintain the business first...”
In this regard, Gao Ning is even less likely to have any clue.
After thinking in vain for a long time, he decided to give up dejectedly:
"I think, why don't we talk to Minister Zhang about this matter and let him consult Mr. Chang for his opinion?"
