Automotive Black Technology Chapter 1491: : There is another company!
www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of automotive black technology!
Shanghai Aircraft Company, the C9 project department was filled with fog. Logically speaking, the room is full of information, so you shouldn't be smoking. But Guo Haotian, the general manager of Shanghai Aircraft Company, is a big smoker himself. He has held more than a dozen meetings in a row in the past few days. The intense work has made many people, including him, ignore the details.
Because of the retaliatory tariffs imposed by the Eagle Country on the 4th, the last item in the tax policy, "Planes and other aircraft with an empty weight exceeding 15,000 kilograms but not exceeding 45,000 kilograms." includes Boeing's exports to China. The main models - the 737 series and MAX7, mean that these two Boeing models have become the "target" of China Eagle's trade war.
From the perspective of this policy, Shangfei Company is actually quite innocent. But only those within Shanghai Fei Company know that this clause was actually added at the strong request of the company!
The reason for doing this is not for anything else. Just because the large aircraft C9, developed and designed by Shanghai Aircraft Company, has completely passed the flight test and can be mass-produced, assembled and applied to the market at any time!
Long before the test of this aircraft was completed, the company had already passed domestic and foreign exhibitions and had orders from several large leasing companies and more than a dozen airlines in China. Externally, more than 50 pre-sale orders have been signed with Pakistan and several friendly neighbors at the developing country level.
Originally, the company's plan was to take advantage of this opportunity to take advantage of Sanpiyin's sharp increase in tariffs and think it was a vacuum in the manufacturing market, so that the C9 product could be fully promoted!
Not to mention defeating Sanpiyin and fighting against Airbus, at least it must occupy a place in the domestic market.
But the decision-makers of Shanghai Aircraft Company did not expect that this time, Sanpiyin would... regardless of the impact on the international market, let alone the spirit of the contract, categorically violated the contract and unilaterally stopped the supply of important parts, which was so cruel!
China's aerospace industry has always placed emphasis on military industry and neglected civilian use. This has something to do with China's social development process, and there is nothing to say about it. So this time the C919 adopts an international cooperation method.
The important partners of aircraft engines are Sanpiyin and General Electric of Eagle Country.
Everything in the contract has been finalized, but when the C9 is launched during this sensitive period, it is very likely to seize about 15% of the Chinese passenger aircraft market!
What is this concept?
Based on the total number of passenger aircraft currently in service in the Chinese market, 15% is approximately 130 aircraft. Take the 727-800, the best-selling 737 series currently sold by Sanpiyin, as an example. The price of a single aircraft is US$90.5 million!
In other words, within this market vacuum, Sanpiyin may face a direct loss of US$12 billion. In addition, the loss in after-sales maintenance costs is uncountable!
In the face of such losses, it seems that breach of contract is not so important. After all, money is worth more than face.
But anyway, things have happened.
In the project department at this time, experts related to the C9 project and project executives from Shanghai Aircraft Company were all present. But in the face of the current difficult situation, no one has given even a single constructive opinion.
"Are you talking? No matter what your idea is, put it forward." Guo Haotian blew out the smoke in his lungs distractedly, and stuffed the cigarette **** into the mineral water bottle that was about to overflow.
After speaking, he looked at Huang Haixing, the chief engineer of the C9 project team.
"Mr. Huang, what do you think?"
Huang Haixing stroked his glasses and endured the smell of nicotine. He paused and said, "I think this matter should be dealt with from the communication aspect. After all, 89 key components are all based on our The current industrial basic processing capabilities cannot be independently produced. Our expert team has thought about handing over these 89 parts, including turbofans, engine covers, and thrust reverser components, to Russia for production. Although we have the intellectual property rights of the engine, the patents for the twelve components of the thrust reverser assembly are provided by General Electric as a condition of cooperation. If we replace these 12 components, we will have to redesign the entire thrust reverser. The thrust device, and if the thrust reverser device is changed, the entire engine will be modified. ”
As soon as Huang Haixing finished speaking, Jin Peng, the manager of CAAC in charge of coordinating the project, stood up.
"Mr. Huang, you need to understand something! Sanpiyin and General Electric unilaterally suspended the supply of accessories. The main reason is that our C9 has had a great impact on the market! Do you know how big the impact is? Don’t know? A conservative estimate is 22 billion U.S. dollars! This is equivalent to more than 150 billion yuan! How can we resolve this matter through communication? Should we tell Sanpiyin that all the money earned by C9 should be given to them? /
Jin Peng is very angry. On the one hand, it is because Huang Haixing's scientific researchers take things for granted and do not understand the principles of the business field. On the other hand, in the past few days, during the communication with General Electric and Sanpiyin Company, Jinpeng, as the main contact person, has received too much arrogance!
Now he is eager to let this trade friction escalate into a war between China and Eagle. If that is the case, he may be the first to sign up to join the army, carry a submachine gun to Chicago, break into Sanpiyin's headquarters, and kill those few Each one is cut into a sieve with a thousand cuts!
Obviously, Jin Peng's uncontrollable anger changed the atmosphere of discussion within the entire project team.
Huang Haixing slapped the table and stood up, confronting Jin Peng across from him, "Why do you have any luck with me? Originally, the C9 project was good, but didn't it become what it is now because of mistakes in decision-making? It's been a long time since. Knowing this, why rush to cancel the C9 project in advance?
Do you know what this project means to my country’s civil aviation field?
To a large extent, the success of the C9 project is a more important step than starting from scratch! It is a step forward from unqualified to qualified or even excellent in the field of civil aviation design, R&D and manufacturing!
As long as C9 flies safely in the sky, we can continue to accumulate and summarize, paving the way for our future direction!
Now, the project is stuck here. We neither benefited from it nor achieved the set goals! Let me tell you, you bureaucrats should be responsible for this! ”
In excitement, Huang Haixing's eyes almost dropped due to his extremely frustrated voice and exaggerated dancing.
Jin Peng regretted losing his temper, after all, the boss is here now. But at this time, facing Huang Haixing's questioning and accusations, and realizing that this nerd had brought Guo Haotian into it, all his expectations disappeared.
"What the hell! The domestic basic processing field is not good. Only three of the more than 300 companies that invited bids were qualified, and even these three companies cannot produce qualified products. Is it my fault!?"
The gaffe has completely gone out of control.
"Enough!"
The gloomy Guo Haotian shouted loudly, "Are you two going to fight and make the problem more complicated?! Find a way! What I want is useful opinions, not complaints and blame! That won't solve the problem! ”
Guo Haotian slapped the table and the scene became quiet.
At this moment, an expert sitting at the end of the conference room, Lin Wusi, a professor at Beijing Institute of Technology who had previously participated in the Zhengxin Group's Poseidon series engine research and development project, silently raised his hand.
"I think what Mr. Jin just said is not objective and accurate. Because as far as I know, in the previous C9 project bidding, there was a domestic company with the ability to process and manufacture aero engines, but it did not bid."
"Which one is it?" Guo Haotian asked without any hope.
The engine equipped with the C9 has more than 30,000 parts, involving almost the entire industrial processing field in China. Whether one family or two families exist or participate does not solve the actual problem.
"Zhengxin Group." Lin Wusi stroked his glasses and whispered.
