The development of our domestic helicopters can be roughly divided into three stages.
That is, in the initial stage, we learn from Northern Mao and introduce technology, followed by independent research and development.
The symbol of the initial stage is the Z-5 helicopter, which is a copy of the Bei Mao Mi-4 helicopter.
In February 1958, it began to be copied according to the drawings provided by Beimao, and the first test flight was carried out in December of the same year.
This is the beginning of our aviation industry helicopter, and it is a long beginning.
How long is it?
Since 1958, the Z-5 has become the main force of domestic helicopters and has been in production for twenty years.
Yes, the aircraft model has not been changed for twenty years. During this period, the Z-6 and Z-7 were also developed, but due to many problems such as design, the projects were cancelled.
The most core issues of helicopters are lift and gravity.
The Zhi-7 project was rejected because the overall quality was seriously overweight.
So, do we need helicopters in China nowadays? Do we need domestically produced helicopters?
It can be described in four words: eager to see through.
What is the most powerful function of a helicopter?
It is to fight against the torrent of steel, and the anti-tank missile it carries is a can opener.
Our industrial foundation is too weak, even after so many years of belt-tightening.
The aircraft industry really took off after the 1970s, when new technologies were introduced from abroad.
At this time, there are indeed aircraft projects in preparation, such as the 701 aircraft.
However, since the Bell 47 prototype was captured in 1962, mass production has not been achieved until now.
The Bell 47 is still a light helicopter. The prototype can only carry 2 people. Unless a stretcher is tied to the landing gear to transport the wounded, it can only carry 4 people.
In other words, this thing can only be used for reconnaissance, transportation, agriculture, surveying, etc.
Its uses are very broad, but its application is very narrow. So is it important?
It's very important, I want it very much——
Why?
There is an old man in Hong Kong called Cai Lan. He once said that when you have a girlfriend, you should not look at the beautiful or ugly ones.
What is the most important thing about having a girlfriend?
Regardless of whether you are in love or not, you have to have a girlfriend before you can fall in love, so it’s easy to be ugly.
By chance, the Red Star Factory obtained the KH-4 production line and technology from a Japanese company.
This incident was reported internally by the Ministry of Industry and immediately attracted the attention of aviation-related departments.
At the same time, Bingcheng Aircraft Manufacturing Factory also paid attention to the news.
Starting in 1962, it has been five years now, and their 701 aircraft project is almost ready.
As a result, their imitation project collapsed and their hard work was in vain!
There are two situations for imitation.
One is imitation with drawings, just like the Z-5 imitation Mi-4, just take it and copy it.
Of course, the time is very short. It can be tested in ten months, which means that it already has production capacity.
What about Bell 47G?
This is the second situation. It was seized without drawings and measured manually with a tape measure.
Scrap the data from the product, and then figure out the metal properties and production data of the parts.
After all the data is obtained, the production process will be redesigned according to industrial standards.
This procedure often takes a lot of time, manpower and computing power.
Are you talking about future generations of Mishijie?
Stop making trouble, the computers of later generations will be able to match the computing power of tens of thousands of people today.
This is not an equal comparison at all, not to mention that the design of MSJ is also very long-lasting.
The basis for the establishment of Project 701 at Bingcheng Aircraft Manufacturing Plant is that it is currently confirmed that the production data of the aircraft cannot be obtained through normal channels.
Moreover, there is currently no way to obtain replacement products for other aircraft.
There is no introduction and no project development, so imitating the Bell 47 is a helpless move.
Under such circumstances, in five years, this project went from attracting much attention to almost being forgotten now because it took too long.
Compared with the demand for helicopters five years ago, compared with the demand for helicopters now, the international environment has changed, and the development of industry and the military has also changed.
In fact, Bingcheng Aircraft Manufacturing Factory also knows very well that if this project is not taken down, the 701 Project with such a large investment will become a mess.
Well now, there is news from Jingcheng Industrial that Hongxing Steel Rolling Plant will mass-produce KH-4.
Bingcheng Aircraft Manufacturing Factory no longer has the aviation management department to worry about their research and development progress.
Project 701 was directly declared unfinished——
What does that advertisement say in later generations?
Mom no longer has to worry about my studies because I dropped out of school——
Just say, after spending so much budget and so much manpower, can Bingcheng Aircraft Manufacturing Factory be willing to watch the project in hand go to waste?
This was the first time they had heard of the name Red Star Factory. It was located in the far north, at the aviation port, and had no contact with the Red Star Factory.
Looking at the full name of Red Star Factory again, their leader felt even more numb and painful.
Just say, ah——
A steel rolling mill has to produce helicopters, which are more advanced models than their project.
Those who rolled the steel did not roll the steel well, and now they want to go to heaven. Do you think this is irritating or not?
Thank you for not having a steel mill, otherwise you wouldn't be able to produce tanks!
After the detailed information was passed on, their leader asked for clarification and looked at the information again, and was even more dumbfounded.
Hey - don't say it yet!
It’s not that we don’t want to produce tanks, it’s just that there’s no need because they already produce cars.
What the hell - what the hell - ah!
Do you think this is reasonable?
According to the news, it was the leader of their Red Star Factory who told them to get the helicopter production line.
What if you don’t say it?
A year later, I will report the research and development speed of the 701 project, and then ask for a budget.
A piece of material was directly sent to him from above, telling him that the Red Star Factory had already begun mass production for takeout.
Who will be embarrassed when the time comes?
Whoever can’t give birth will be embarrassed!
Originally, Bingcheng Aircraft Manufacturing Factory's suggestion to the higher-ups was to bring over this production line.
After all, the Red Star Factory is just a steel rolling mill and does not have the professional production capabilities for aircraft.
Furthermore, they are an aircraft manufacturer and the research team for this project.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The whole country is a game of chess, I don’t care where you come from. All industries must carry out their work under the leadership of the organization, and aircraft are under aviation control.
However, this opinion that was submitted immediately fell into disrepair.
There was no reply, no response, just this information was sent back.
It is information about the Red Star Factory and the specific cooperation situation of this aircraft production line.
After reading this, the leader understood that it was not that the aviation department did not want to help, but that it was too busy to help.
If there is just a steel rolling mill across the street, there is no need to mention it. It would be no problem to bring the steel rolling mill over.
But, the opposite is indeed a steel rolling mill, but it will soon be upgraded to a steel group.
Good guy, you want Red Star Factory, and Red Star Factory still wants you!
When an ant swallows an elephant, who will annex whom?
Looking at the materials, Red Star Factory covers many industrial fields such as metallurgy, steel rolling, textiles, chemicals, automobiles, ships, food, and trade.
The leader of the Bingcheng Aircraft Manufacturing Factory was baldly silent. There was nothing more he could say!
How to say?
It's no longer possible to forcefully specify the contract. The explanation of the contract given by others is clear.
This set of aircraft production equipment is a cooperative project industry between Sanhe Co., Ltd. and Hongxing Factory.
In other words, it is a project in which Japanese companies provide equipment and equipment and entrust Red Star Factory to produce it.
If you want to take it away, forget it. Don’t cooperate with any domestic industrial projects in the future.
Ah, if one comes, you take one away, if one comes, you take one away, how can we come?
Therefore, they cannot take away this aircraft production line. The Red Star Factory has the ability to produce it.
What makes them even more speechless is that the strength of Red Star Factory far exceeds their imagination.
Products from this aircraft production line are directly sold to external parties.
There is no planning and control of planned production at all. In other words, this project does not have the budget of the aviation department and is not subject to aviation constraints.
The Ministry of Industry listed this project in the joint industrial and tertiary industry projects of the Red Star Factory.
United Industries will introduce aviation technology companies in the production and assembly process.
The tertiary industry will strongly support the construction and production of the Red Star Factory in the parts production process.
The meaning of the Ministry of Industry is obvious: This is mine!
Some voices also said, let’s see what Red Star Factory can do, swim in the river, run on the ground, and now I’m starting to think about flying in the sky.
That’s right, even though our old Li doesn’t know anything about business, he has a group dream.
What is your group like?
Oh - this is the Automobile Group.
Isn’t it just that all automobile production is autonomous? Well, it’s awesome, I won’t learn from it.
Oh - that's an industrial group.
Isn't it just that all industrial production is streamlined? Well, it's awesome, I don't want to learn it.
Oh - you are the aviation group.
You said that aircraft manufacturing is technically difficult, costly, and requires high materials and processes?
Hiss - I don’t think it’s that high!
Stop talking, stop talking, let me show you the aircraft we produce. Is this called an airplane?
The group industry that I, Lao Li, want to establish should not only cover the integration of light and heavy industries, but also flourish in the industrial field.
In the fields of automobiles, ships, food, aircraft, etc., you do high-end and we do high-yield.
The purpose of our company is to serve the people.
The interpretation is that we will build whatever the people need.
First, let the people realize the freedom of motorcycles, and then add more weight to the energy field.
Don't always say that energy is enough. It is enough now because there are few vehicles.
Throw out hundreds of thousands of motorcycles and 30,000 cars a year. Throw them away for a few years and then see if they are enough.
Red Star Steel Group wants to be a catfish and a troublemaker in the industry!
------------------
In the reception room, introduced by Li Huaide, Li Xuewu met the leader of the 701 project team.
Project director Kong Xiaobo, deputy director Bai Guangming, and chief engineer Shi Zhiyuan.
Of course, many people came to the 701 Project this time, from the project director to the technical backbone.
It's not a visit, nor is it a chance to relax and travel.
Their emotions are very complicated, but not that complicated.
After all, the meat is in the pot. The Red Star Factory produces helicopters and is also part of the country.
After seeing the top leader of the Red Star Factory, these people couldn't help but curl their lips inwardly.
I don’t know if I ask three questions!
When you asked him about the specifics of the project, he told you that the journey here went smoothly?
If you ask him about the implementation plan for cooperation, will he tell you if there are arrangements for a place to live?
If you ask him again about the formation of the inspection team, he will directly tell you to drink more at noon.
Good guy, I bet this Director Li is on the men's football team and is good at kicking the ball.
It wasn't until the security cadre Li Xuewu arrived that their conversation was no longer so barren and could only consist of giggles.
Of course, Kong Xiaobo was not too happy, let alone overjoyed.
What, this is, security cadres are in charge of industry, so what are industrial cadres in charge of?
Isn’t this what Red Star Factory is doing nonsense——
Kong Xiaobo is also a sensible person, and production changes are currently being implemented in the industrial field.
This phenomenon has been caused by changes in the management of some factories.
However, the aircraft manufacturing project that is about to be inspected is related to the important work and development opportunities of domestic helicopter localization, so leave it to them?
This is so unprofessional——!
Therefore, when faced with the young man introduced by Li Huaide, director of the Red Star Factory Management Committee, although Kong Xiaobo was very polite, he was too polite.
What Li Xuewu felt was perfunctory and contemptuous, not contempt for him, but contempt for Red Star Factory, which believed that Red Star Factory had collapsed.
It may be that the previous management of Red Star Factory negotiated the project and let this current one take advantage of it.
He was not in a hurry to explain. After getting to know the visiting 701 project team, he looked at Director Han from the General Office of the Ministry of Industry.
"Hello, Director Han——"
"Hello, Comrade Xuewu——"
Director Han knew Red Star Factory, Li Huaide, and Li Xuewu.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! So when shaking hands and greetings, I was very enthusiastic and spoke very kindly.
The two met only once, the last time he accompanied Li Huaide to the Ministry of Industry to recruit people.
Cheng Kaiyuan survived the catastrophe, thanks to Li Huaide and Li Xuewu who risked their lives to save him.
When Leader Du met with them, Director Han showed extremely high organizational qualities.
Similarly, Li Xuewu was deeply impressed by him, and Director Han was also deeply impressed by Li Xuewu.
The young man is bold and bold, and he is capable and strategic.
Therefore, when they met this time, the two of them had a great time chatting and even seemed to be taking over the host's place.
The reception room of Hongxing Factory is quite large, with sofas and coffee tables surrounding the wall.
Because Li Xuewu came, Li Huaide became more confident and had more energy to brag.
If he hadn't eaten lunch yet or drank wine, he would have said that the Red Star Factory will make poached eggs in ten years.
These people from the Bingcheng Aircraft Manufacturing Factory echoed Li Huaide's boast while observing the cadres at the Red Star Factory.
Director Li Huaide, deputy directors Gu Weijie and Xue Zhifu, and security cadre Li Xuewu.
The more they exchanged pleasantries, the more they discovered that the Red Star Factory was a complete outsider in aircraft manufacturing.
It can be said that none of the people in the room understand aircraft manufacturing.
Even if it's an engineer, it's better than talking about the situation and business.
As Director Li just mentioned, Li Xuewu, the security officer in charge of the aircraft manufacturing project, ignored them at all after entering the room to say hello.
He has been talking to Director Han from the Ministry of Industry, looking flattering.
In their opinion, if the security cadre can manage industry, he is probably a good talker.
They waited until lunch time and were invited by Li Huaide to arrange for them to have dinner at the guest house.
Looking at the sumptuous banquet on the table, as well as the dress and exquisite etiquette of the service staff, Kong Xiaobo denounced the extravagance of the Red Star Factory in his heart, and at the same time, the factory in Suanjing City was wealthy.
Logically speaking, you can't drink alcohol during lunch, but this is a human thing. When we meet for the first time, we have to have some wine to cheer up.
When Li Huaide picked up the first glass of wine, he said, do what you can and do as you please.
Today I made friends, welcomed brothers, didn’t drink much, and saw each other in everything.
Good guy, those who knew it was the factory leaders who were talking, but those who didn’t know thought they were people from the Jianghu.
Perhaps he thought Li Huaide said this because he was not good at drinking. Kong Xiaobo did not embarrass him, but as the guest of honor, he drank a lot of wine.
But as I drank, I felt something was wrong. The people at Red Star Factory really did what they could, and they were so rude.
However, that young cadre, Li Xuewu, gradually became the main force.
There was no toast at the table, but he had a drink, and Li Xuewu had a drink.
Deputy Director Bai Guangming had a drink, and Li Xuewu also had a drink, vaguely thinking of competing in the ring.
Young people, don’t underestimate your capabilities!
Kong Xiaobo had no reaction, but Bai Guangming took the initiative to stand up and get away from Li Xuewu.
He thought, I am from the Northeast, I grew up soaked in 56-degree wine, how can you compare with me?
Li Xuewu was looking for a breakthrough. When he saw someone rushing up, he naturally dug a hole hard.
Overwhelmed by the alcohol, Xuanxuan showed up as if he was about to collapse. Bai Guangming's eyes widened as he kept drinking, but he didn't see any intention of falling down.
The others were so incompetent that they died without even finishing three rounds.
As a result, Kong Xiaobo looked at himself asking for trouble and smiled bitterly.
Young people, don’t talk about martial ethics!
Why didn't you tell us earlier if you were so good at drinking, and let us drink?
Li Huaide looked at Kong Xiaobo and couldn't help but snicker.
He was really damaged. All the brothers' units in the capital were brought into disaster by him and Li Xuewu.
Now Lao Li is calling the heads of those factories or units to have a drink. He must have agreed in advance. Li Xuewu is not here, and today the friendship bureau is here.
Otherwise? Who the hell would fall for you?
Am I going to drink, or am I going to risk my life?
After the disaster in the capital was over, the two of them went to Fengcheng to fight guerrillas. Unexpectedly, as soon as they came back, someone would come to their doorstep. He was so harmful!
Arrange the formation in advance, explain things clearly, and do what you can. It seems that you are exposing yourself to shortcomings. If you say you can't drink, you raise the white flag in advance.
He is just waiting for the other party to take the bait. I have said these words, so you must not drink too much.
The result is very suspenseful. If the other party's deputy director hadn't been lured by Li Xuewu, today's round would have been a failure. He was too deliberate.
Fortunately, the fish bit the hook, and the fun of Li Huaide's fraud came.
Let's wait and see how you talk in the afternoon.
Are you saying you are too drunk?
I'm not forcing you to drink. I've just told you to stop and do what you can.
Okay, we welcome you here to discuss the project, your soldiers will drink to death?
Just say, are you embarrassed?
Speaking of being bad, Lao Li was not so bad before, but then he met Xiao Li.
Xue Zhifu and Gu Weijie came to meet in the morning. Cheng Kaiyuan had work and came at noon.
Except for the union chairman who "fell ill" again, as well as Jing Yunong and Dong Wenxue who were in Fengcheng, all the leaders of the factory were here, which is interesting.
Xue Zhifu is an honest man and feels that this method is mediocre and of no use in business.
But this did not prevent him from watching the excitement and trusting Li Xuewu.
This kid never suffers losses or is fooled. He is the only one who deceives others, and no one else deceives him.
Therefore, as soon as Li Xuewu entered the reception room and said hello to Li Huaide, he knew that old Li Xiaoli would not be able to get into the water today.
Cheng Kaiyuan and Gu Weijina are both extremely shrewd people. They would have known that today's game would not be easy.
Just think about it, the 701 project team came with bad intentions, how could Lao Li and Xiao Li be unprepared?
This project was initiated by Li Xuewu, especially to show off Lao Li. Can it be used to make wedding dresses for others?
These two bastards were obviously shaking off their wedding clothes and trying to seduce the bride.
Are you taking my wedding dress?
Then it's not too much for me to steal your girl.
------------------
"Director Li, doesn't he smoke?"
Kong Xiaobo gestured to the cigarette case in his hand and asked, "Want one?"
"Thank you, I don't smoke."
Li Xuewu smiled and waved his hand and said: "I used to smoke, but then I quit."
"Oh? Really-"
Kong Xiaobo lit one for himself, looked at Li Xuewu and nodded slowly: "What a great perseverance."
He seemed to be pointing out and asked: "I see that your Director Li doesn't smoke either."
"Yes, Director Li also stopped smoking."
Li Xuewu caught the other person's words well and explained: "He quit first, and I quit later."
"Director Li consciously felt that his health was not good. In the spirit of dedicating himself to the organization, he quit smoking."
He chuckled and said in a humorous tone: "I watched him quit smoking and felt that smoking was really inconvenient, so I quit."
"Oh, I really can't think of it-"
Kong Xiaobo gestured to the cigarette in his hand and said: "My wife once advised me to quit smoking, but I don't have much perseverance, let alone big pursuits."
"well--"
As he said this, he sighed, folded his legs, and put his hands on the armrests of the wicker chair.
"Especially when you are tired from work." He sat up straight and flicked the ashes in the ashtray, looked at Li Xuewu and emphasized: "This 701 project has made us suffer-"
Li Xuewu picked up the teacup and heard that the other party was getting into the topic, so he remained silent.
He looked at this young man with a grown-up look, drinking tea from a cup and not answering anything.
The corners of Kong Xiaobo's eyes twitched slightly, and he suddenly felt that he was in trouble.
You underestimated the enemy——!
After lunch, everyone was drunk at the wine table. Li Huaide suggested taking a rest, but he could only let the Red Star Factory arrange it.
We haven’t even started talking about the matter yet, let’s eat it first to show off our power!
Let’s look at several factory leaders of the Red Star Factory. They should go to work and nothing will happen.
So one can imagine Kong Xiaobo’s depression.
Li Huaide knew etiquette and did not leave them alone in the guest house.
Isn't that right? Comrade Li Xuewu, who was in charge of the business, stayed to drink tea with him.
It's just that I feel awkward drinking this tea. It seems like a card that Li Huaide threw out at random, but this card is probably the trump card of Red Star Factory.
But what can he do? The old king exploded, and even a 3 in his hand could make him mad to death.
He also had to act modest and pinch his nose to deal with the deputy director.
How do you talk about this matter?
Want to talk to Red Star Factory? Yes, the negotiation table is ready. Do you dare to go up?
Now Red Star Factory has played Li Xuewu's card and forced Kong Xiaobo to play his card.
If the card is revealed, why don't you ask others to press it and beat it?
But if you say you keep talking with your hands, others have to talk to you.
The 701 project team is here for research and cooperation, not to grab things.
Before the aviation and industrial departments can coordinate, they must negotiate an attitude with the Red Star Factory.
Only with the approval of the Red Star Factory can they obtain cooperation in the technical part of the production plan given by the Ministry of Industry.
In other words, they need to provide production technical support to Red Star Factory in order to obtain technology sharing from Red Star Factory in the aircraft manufacturing industry.
I haven't gotten the KH-4 production line back yet, so everything needs to be discussed.
The reason why Bingcheng Aircraft Manufacturing Factory got the first opportunity to come to Hongxing Factory for talks was because they were in charge of the 701 project.
If they cannot reach an agreement, Red Star Factory would prefer to obtain cooperation from other aircraft manufacturers, which means that the 701 project will be completely difficult to produce.
At that time, the superiors will also doubt and criticize their work attitude.
Don't say that there are no other aircraft manufacturers coveting this cooperation opportunity.
Currently, they are not the only ones researching helicopters in China.
Help the Red Star Factory dismantle the production line and install it to ensure normal production at the Red Star Aircraft Manufacturing Factory. In this process, the Bingcheng Aircraft Manufacturing Factory can obtain all production parameters.
In this way, they can continue the research project.
After all, the production line has been obtained, and based on this, we can further develop new models or develop modifications of this model.
As long as this goal is achieved, we can ensure that the research on Project 701 is not in vain.
After all, it took five years to train many technical personnel, and they can seamlessly connect to this project.
As for what form the cooperation will take, how can Bingcheng Aircraft Manufacturing Factory ensure its own interests while acquiring technology?
This requires him to negotiate. If the negotiation goes well, everyone will be happy. If the negotiation fails, he will have to take the blame.
You can also ask the higher-ups to directly put pressure on Hongxing Factory to cooperate with Bingcheng Aircraft Manufacturing Factory.
But the Ministry of Cooperative Industries has objections to such companies, and Red Star Factory will kick them out sooner or later.
Therefore, we have to talk carefully and have a good talk.
The young man in front of him was the first hurdle he needed to pass.
"I heard from Director Li that you were responsible for negotiating the cooperation with Japanese businessmen and this project?"
"You misunderstood, haha——"
Li Xuewu chuckled and put down the tea cup in his hand, looked at Kong Xiaobo and explained: "I am the deputy director in charge of the coordination work of the Red Star Factory Management Committee Office."
"Because I understand some foreign languages and happen to be responsible for some security affairs, so——"
He paused, then nodded slowly and said, "I am indirectly exposed to this project and am responsible for daily contact."
"oh--"
Kong Xiaobo nodded, looked at Li Xuewu and asked: "Can you introduce the specific situation of the project cooperation? If you don't mind."
"You are worrying too much. We have nothing to mind. This is normal foreign cooperation."
Li Xuewu looked at him and emphasized: "This is not the first time we have cooperated with enterprises."
"As early as last year, we had finalized cooperation in the electronic and electrical industry."
He raised his hand slightly and introduced: "At the same time, Sanhe United Co., Ltd. is also responsible for the agency distribution business of our factory including hardware, food and other industrial products in Japan, South Korea and North America."
"That's right——"
Kong Xiaobo couldn't help but become serious as he listened, and exclaimed: "I didn't expect that the Red Star Factory's business is doing so well, including North America?"
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "The liquidity of business, as long as necessary."
Li Xuewu confirmed, and then continued: "When this project was established last year, the nail clippers, kitchen tools and other hardware products produced by our factory have been sold through Sanhe United Co., Ltd. to the distribution areas they are responsible for."
"In the first half of this year, the electronic and electrical industry infrastructure projects invested and constructed by the Red Star Factory were completed in an orderly manner, and the corresponding production equipment has been purchased and is being installed and debugged."
He pointed to the brand new electric fan on the cabinet and introduced: "This is our product."
There was already a look of surprise on Kong Xiaobo's face. The shock was completely different when he saw the materials from the Red Star Factory and when he heard the introduction from the people at the Red Star Factory.
Li Xuewu introduced it casually: "Including household appliances, kitchen appliances, household appliances, etc., we signed a compensation agreement."
"I understand, it's a good idea."
Kong Xiaobo nodded and said in agreement: "As long as we can introduce technology, we will have the opportunity to create our own products."
"It's hard-"
Li Xuewu looked at him and said seriously: "The Red Star Factory has always been committed to serving the people, and so are the products it produces."
"Excellent quality, advanced functions, high quality and low price are our goals."
He picked up the tea cup and took a sip before continuing: "The quality of the Red Star Antelope cars produced by our factory is not inferior to the 212 from the Beijing Automobile Factory."
"But do you know how much it sells for? 6,000 to 8,000 yuan."
Li Xuewu did not wait for the other party to guess, and directly gave the answer. He did not wait for the other party to be shocked, and introduced again: "The 50CC motorcycle produced by our factory is 499 yuan, and the electric fan is 59 yuan..."
"Electric fan! 59 yuan?"
Kong Xiaobo heard Li Xuewu quote the prices of a series of products, of which electric fans were the most sensitive.
He pointed to the electric fan on the cabinet and said in surprise: "We just bought it for 130 yuan."
"Hehehe——"
Li Xuewu chuckled and nodded, confirming: "It's 59 yuan. It seems you bought it early."
"..."
Kong Xiaobo looked at Li Xuewu speechlessly. The project can be put aside temporarily. Their family seems to be losing money!
"The production model of our factory is different from that of ordinary factories."
Li Xuewu didn't wait for him to ask questions and explained: "Our factory has a department called the Trade Management Center. They are responsible for the management of the supply chain."
“You haven’t heard of supply chain, have you?”
He didn't care whether the other party had heard it or not. He used the electric fan on the cabinet to explain to the other party what the supply chain was and how it was run.
Kong Xiaobo was surprised after hearing this, and there were beads of sweat on his forehead.
I had already stubbed out the cigarette in my hand and didn't drink any water, for fear of missing any important information.
Only after Li Xuewu finished speaking and was stunned for a while did he finally figure it out.
The rapid rise of Qingqing Hongxing Factory relies on the supply chain to achieve industrial production.
This is not a manufacturer of parts, but a manufacturer of goods.
"I'll make a bold guess."
Kong Xiaobo thought about many things, looked at Li Xuewu and asked seriously and tentatively: "You are engaged in helicopter production, and you also want to use this system?"
He raised his eyebrows slightly and confirmed: "Is this what you call a supply chain?"
"Do you think it's feasible?"
Li Xuewu did not answer his question directly, but kicked the ball back.
Kong Xiaobo was also thinking about this issue. He frowned slightly, rubbed his chin with his fingers, leaned on the chair and said, "I understand what you mean."
"The experimental machine we are working on is a machine taken from the Zhuzhou Aircraft Engine Manufacturing Factory."
He said: "Aircraft parts are also produced by multiple factories."
"However, I never thought about throwing out all the parts and producing the aircraft through order procurement."
Kong Xiaobo looked at Li Xuewu and asked: "You should know that aircraft is an industrial product with very high technical difficulties. Don't you worry about quality issues when using purchased parts?"
“Why worry about quality?”
Li Xuewu spread his hands and asked, "Shouldn't this be something that the production unit is worried about?"
"At least three factories are responsible for the production of the orders we place. If any quality problem occurs at any one, they will be responsible."
He looked at Kong Xiaobo and emphasized: "The orders from our factory are not planned production orders. If there is a quality problem, we will not pay."
"Also, regarding the issue of technical difficulty," Li Xuewu explained: "Our factory is isolated from the R&D and production links."
“It’s not that there is no communication and communication, but R&D is relatively independent.”
He pointed to the direction of the research institute and introduced: "We have our own scientific research institute, including many projects that are supported by it."
"Our Director Li has said that professional matters should be left to professionals."
Li Xuewu looked at the other party and said with a smile: "Look, we just got the aircraft production line, so you, who know the technology, are here."
Kong Xiaobo understood and was convinced that Red Star Factory did not follow the routine at all.
They don't care at all about the meaning behind their products, and they really wave the banner of serving the people, as long as they don't violate this principle.
So, back to the original question, with the unlimited profit channel of foreign trade, can the Red Star Factory realize the production of helicopters through the supply chain?
In fact, Kong Xiaobo did not need to answer the question, and Li Xuewu did not want to get any opinions from him.
Asking him is to make him think and understand Red Star Factory's current attitude towards this project.
We already have a production line, but are we still worried about not having technical support?
It can be without your 701 project team, but it absolutely cannot be without the helicopter production line of the Red Star Factory.
Therefore, if you want to talk to Red Star Factory, you must have the proper attitude.
If you are bossy and self-sufficient in technology, you will look down on the Red Star Factory. Forget it, we have no shortage of bosses.
Kong Xiaobo looked at the electric fan on the cabinet and fell into deep thought.
The production model of the Red Star Factory was completely different from what he imagined.
There is no need for advanced production technology here because parts and components are not produced here.
The only thing is that the core components of the aircraft are also purchased, and even the Red Star Factory is also doing research.
Li Xuewu just mentioned that the Red Star Factory has its own engine research institute.
In the future, we will also have to produce our own power systems to meet more and higher needs.
At present, what the Red Star Factory lacks is assembly production technology and the technology to bring this production line back completely from Japan.
Is it difficult?
As Li Xuewu introduced, Huaqing aircraft manufacturing experts took the lead and organized a group of graduates who were already ready.
If they hadn't suddenly intervened, the inspection team would have been ready to set off.
Now, Li Xuewu has made the problem clear. We can do without your technology, but can you do without our support?
No, Kong Xiaobo is the person in charge of the 701 aircraft project, and he has to be responsible for the project team.
Therefore, now he has to take the initiative to show his skills and sincerity in order to gain the satisfaction and support of Red Star Factory. He is rushing to ask for help.
"We have already received the invitation letter. In order to be fully prepared, I have postponed the date for a few days."
Li Xuewu put down his teacup, looked at Kong Xiaobo who was deep in thought and said, "You can walk around the Red Star Factory and see more. When you have a certain understanding, we can talk slowly."
"About the inspection team——"
Kong Xiaobo didn't pay attention to the threat in Li Xuewu's words, looked at him seriously and asked: "What are your plans and arrangements?"
"I won't go into detail about the importance of this production line." Li Xuewu could see that he was about to show off, and explained seriously: "The inspection team needs to leave as soon as possible and complete the disassembly, assembly, and transformation within half a year."
"Sanhe Co., Ltd. contacted Japanese companies to transform this production line."
Li Xuewu emphasized: "The inspection team can participate in it to ensure that the production line can be installed and produced smoothly after returning to China."
"I'm afraid it's not just about ensuring installation and production, right?"
Kong Xiaobo's answer also became sharper. He looked at Li Xuewu and asked: "How did you arrange this production line?"
"Based on the present, carry forward the past and open up the future."
Li Xuewu didn't pay attention to his question and answered casually: "Now we don't even see what the production line looks like, so why talk about the future?"
He picked up the tea cup and took a sip, and said with lowered eyebrows: "Let's produce the aircraft first and then talk about it."
"That's true——"
Seeing him like this, Kong Xiaobo raised his eyebrows and asked: "What about technical cooperation?"
"How did you arrange it?"
He folded his right leg, put his hands on it casually, looked at Li Xuewu and asked: "We can't wait until the production line is pulled back and the aircraft is produced before we can talk about it, right?"
"Haha, that means using people to face the front and not using people to face the back."
Li Xuewu chuckled and put down his tea cup, looked at the other party and said seriously: "Two conditions."
"First, our factory should share the aircraft technology derived from this project."
Before Kong Xiaobo could refuse, he waved his hand and continued: "Second, our factory can share the helicopter manufacturing plant."
"What--!"
Kong Xiaobo couldn't say the words of rejection for a moment.
The Red Star Factory wants the technology derived from this project, which means that the technology developed in the future by the 701 project will be shared with the Red Star Factory.
Then what they did was not in vain!
Not in vain, Red Star Factory's second condition completely knocked back what he said.
"Joint stock cooperation or joint venture production?"
"Stock cooperation?"
Li Xuewu looked at him with a chuckle and asked with a very subtle expression: "Dongcheng Credit Union invested 5 million yuan in this project, how much can you contribute?"
Kong Xiaobo: “…”
You scare me!
It’s great to have money!
If you have money, you can do whatever you want!
"Let's talk about the conditions for joint production..."
