Technological Supremacy Chapter 158: China Speed, Star Technology and Power Grid are about to join forces
After several days of intense evaluation, Ning Zeping finally called Luo Jia.
On the other end of the phone, the old man was obviously very emotional, and he said in an eager tone: "We have invited experts from the Ship Research Institute, Machinery Institute, and Marine Engineering Institute to study together, and everyone agrees that your engineering ship , the design is much better than the Rheinland Group's plan."
"However, the colleagues of the expert group found that many key pressure-bearing links need to use expensive imported materials, so the cost of your engineering ship is not low."
Luo Jia feels helpless. Materials science is indeed a big shortcoming in our country. As a very special offshore construction machine, engineering ships are also large-scale operations. They need to purchase many high-strength metal parts from abroad. reinforcement.
The material science of Xingchen Technology, with Niu Jiming who came back from Cambridge, is in charge, and his strength is quite good, but the marine materials are not urgently needed at present, so they have not been put on the agenda.
The material science team headed by Ming Ji has actually done a lot of work. The aluminum-plastic film was made by his team. The high-density carbon material used in the supercapacitor this time is also a masterpiece of Ming Ji's team.
There are too many lessons to make up, so take your time.
Luo Jia said with a smile, "Mr. Ning, you should understand the principle that you get what you pay for. When we designed the engineering ship, we didn't intend to save money. We guaranteed a ship for 40 years. Designed for standards."
"Understood, of course I understand." Ning Zeping said, "Your ship is so strong that it is too strong. It is a typical example of high cost and cheap use. This kind of thinking is very good."
"But there is one more thing I must inform you in advance."
"Oh, what is it?" Luo Jia asked.
"The power department means to directly pay a design fee to buy the blueprint of the engineering ship." Ning Zeping hesitated for a few seconds, and then told Luo Jia the news.
He thought that as a businessman, Luo Jia would not agree so quickly. After all, Xingchen Technology entrusted the shipyard to manufacture the ship, and then leased the ship to the power department to maximize the benefits. Selling the blueprint does not make much money. .
However, Luo Jia had already expected that the power department might pay to buy it out, so he didn't think much of it.
"No problem, the blueprint can be sold." Luo Jia said happily.
"You agreed so soon?" Ning Zeping couldn't believe his ears.
Luo Jia said with a smile, "Why don't you agree? The engineering ship is just a small project for us. Since the power grid has bought the blueprint of the engineering ship, it will launch a large-scale wind power project next. Use our supercapacitor."
"For things like business, we have to take a long-term view. Our Star Technology has always been fighting the world with our partners. Being able to cooperate with domestic power giants is only good for us, and there is no harm."
Ning Zeping nodded, "Sure enough, you are said to be a smart businessman, this time I have really seen it."
"As you said, we are very satisfied with the supercapacitor. Don't worry, the grid will definitely place a huge order for you next time!"
After hanging up the phone, Luo Jia called An Ran and Hong Tao and told them about the decision to sell the blueprint of the engineering ship to the national team.
Things like blueprints are not finished by just copying them with a USB flash drive. Star Technology, as the designer, needs to send out a team of experts to assist the national team in implementing the plan. .
And Hong Tao's business department is responsible for negotiating a contract with the national team.
According to international practice, blueprints can be authorized or sold outright.
Licensing contracts are relatively cheap, but buying out designs and patents at one time is relatively expensive. It depends on how the national team chooses.
An Ran was a bit reluctant, after all, the hardware department spent a lot of effort in designing the engineering ship.
But he also understands that a person who wants to make a profit in everything may not be able to accomplish anything in the end.
Star Technology is the best example. They never eat alone, and have in-depth cooperation with countless domestic giants.
So far, I have never seen anyone who dared to make an idea for Xingchen Technology. On the contrary, whenever Luo Jia wants to do something, many companies will immediately stand up and ask Luo Jia if he needs help.
This time, Xingchen Technology will cooperate deeply with domestic electric power giants again. As a result, Luo Jia's circle of friends will expand again.
"Go and talk to them." Luo Jia said to Hong Tao, "I heard what Mr. Ning said, besides engineering ships, the power side may also place a big order for our capacitor project."
"Leave it to me, I will leave for Beijing right away." Hong Tao nodded.
......
Siemens Group Headquarters, Munich.
Luo Xude is in the office, writing an email to shareholders.
Because of Huaxia, the rumors that Xingchen Technology will enter the offshore wind power field intensified, resulting in a sharp drop in the company's stock price. As the president, Luo Xude needs to give an explanation to the shareholders.
Germanic is a relatively strict nation, Luo Xude touched his chin with his hand, considering the wording of the email.
He must accurately express the company's management's confidence in the future, and at the same time, he must pay attention to the threat from the East and not make shareholders too panic.
Luo Xude scratched his hair with his hands, this is really an embarrassing thing.
After all, the opponent this time is Xingchen Technology, a terrifying existence that once pulled Apple and Samsung from the altar, snatched the mobile operating system from Google, and cut Google search in half.
The wording of the email must be very careful. If you belittle Xingchen Technology too much, shareholders will think you are arrogant, and if you say Xingchen Technology is too powerful, it will make shareholders feel incompetent.
Just when Luo Xude was in a dilemma, there was a knock on the door outside.
Then his secretary stood outside the door and said, "President, I have your call."
Luo Xude frowned, and said impatiently: "Didn't I tell you that while I am writing emails to shareholders, I will not answer anyone's phone calls."
The secretary said with some embarrassment: "The call is from Huaxia. Our chief representative and president of Huaxia Region, Bronte, has something important to ask you. He is on line 6."
Calling from China?
Luo Xude was taken aback suddenly, motioned for the secretary to leave, and then pressed the Arabic numeral 6 on the phone keypad.
Bronte's voice came from the opposite side, he was panting heavily, and said in a serious tone: "President, the latest news, they are about to sign a contract!"
"Don't be in a hurry, tell me clearly, who is signing the contract with whom?"
"Star Technology is about to sign a contract with Huaxia Power Grid and major power giants! They have decided to purchase the engineering ship authorization of Star Technology. Our plan with the Rhine Group has been completely abandoned by them!"
Luo Xude sighed deeply, sure enough, what should come has come.
What is a nightmare opponent?
That's it!
Star Technology is the kind of enemy that can bite you hard anytime, anywhere, at any time and place that you least expect.
When Luo Xude heard for the first time that Xingchen Technology was still engaged in engineering ships, he could hardly believe his ears.
This strange company, what kind of road are they, even researching shipbuilding?
But when he came back to his senses, he thought about it carefully, and found that the method of Xingchen Technology is really clever.
Every step they take is precisely designed.
Use batteries to drive electric controls, and use electric controls to drive electric cars and motorcycles. With electric cars and motorcycles, China's power consumption will definitely increase sharply, so they launched supercapacitors.
Capacitors solve the problem of energy storage, so that large-scale offshore wind farms can be built, and offshore wind farms need to install ships, so Xingchen Technology began to study special ships.
They started from optimizing software, and in less than two years, they have crossed multiple fields, and now they even started to get involved in ship design.
However, their efforts in each field are interlocking, driving the entire industrial chain forward step by step.
Finally, after cutting down countless opponents, Xingchen Technology's big knife is about to fall on Siemens' head. Luo Xude's current mood is one of anger and helplessness.
"When will they sign the contract?" Luo Xude asked.
Bronte hurriedly said, "Our informant said that the signing ceremony will be held tomorrow afternoon, and Luo Jia, the CEO of Star Technology, has already arrived in the capital."
"This is very unusual, because Luo Jia has always been a very low-key person and almost never participates in any public activities. If it is only the installation ship authorized to sign, he should not attend in person. Star Technology and Power Grid, each send a representative. Enough."
"However, this time, not only the president of Xingchen Technology will be here, but also the big boss of the power grid. It is possible that their contract is not just about installing ships."
Bronte did not continue, but Luo Xude had already guessed.
If it is not only the installation boat, it must be a super capacitor.
So far, Star Technology's supercapacitor is still in a semi-invisible state.
There have been rumors in the market for a long time that Xingchen Technology has already produced this thing and is doing large-scale testing on the power grid.
However, Xingchen Technology has never announced it to the public. The last time Luo Jia gave a speech in Beijing, he talked about the late stage of the laboratory, and did not announce the completion of the project.
And if Xingchen Technology really signed an energy storage project with the grid, it would be tantamount to the existence of supercapacitors, and it would be completely smashed.
Luo Xude rubbed his temples, "Really? Are they moving so fast?"
Bronte said with bitterness in his voice, "President, the efficiency of Huaxia is different from ours. Assuming that we have mastered the supercapacitor technology, it will take at least one or two years ~IndoMTL.com~ or even a few years for large-scale research. Scale testing can convince Deutsche Power and Federal Power.”
"But this is Huaxia! Their speed is too crazy!"
"After more than a month of testing, Huaxia Power Grid decided to purchase supercapacitors on a large scale and officially build an energy storage center. This kind of thing cannot happen anywhere in the world, but it is very likely to happen in Huaxia!"
"Because in this land, there is nothing impossible!"
Luo Xude didn't speak for a while, his face was livid, and he swallowed a few mouthfuls of spit, but his throat was still terribly bitter.
What kind of people are these **** people!
Xingchen Technology is a group of tough guys, especially able to endure hardships and fight. The whole world already knows this.
Looking at it now, Huaxia Power Grid is also a bunch of lunatics!
Just tested for more than a month, dare to place a big order for Xingchen Technology, not to mention that the rigorous Germans can't do it, no one in the world except Huaxia can do it!
If this news is true, the impact on the world will be too great.
Whether it is charging piles, supercapacitors, or engineering ships, these are all upstream areas of energy.
With the rapid advancement of the upstream field, China is getting closer and closer to becoming the first country in the world to use new energy on a large scale.
