There are bars all over the city of Dortmund. Of course, Liu Lang couldn't enter because he was underage.
German beer is famous in the world, and Liu Lang is a little greedy after seeing it. He has never drank alcohol since his rebirth. Of course, he was not an alcoholic in his previous life, and he could not even drink a few times in a year. However, he has not drank alcohol for such a long time.
It made him a little greedy.
Well, Liu Lang is only ten years old this year. Drinking alcohol as a child will affect brain development...Liu Lang used his own will to suppress the idea of drinking.
Liu Lang's will is very strong. As long as he tells himself not to drink, the idea of drinking will be completely suppressed.
At nine o'clock in the morning the next day, Liu Lang and Sun Hu took a bus to the industrial area in the suburbs. As soon as they left the city, they saw a large factory area. Like Bochum, the factories here were not very big.
There are towering chimneys and thick smoke, and there are many flower beds and trees on both sides of the road. The factory area is also very clean, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as spotless.
Even Sun Hu, who didn't understand industry, saw the problem.
"Liu Lang, the factories in West Germany are also engaged in machinery manufacturing. Why are they so clean? The factory yesterday was even cleaner than the hotel. Let's look at the factories in our country. Our North Industries Group is not bad, but the other factories are not.
It’s not oil-stained twists. The workers’ hands and bodies are covered with oil after work. It’s completely different. Why do you think this is?”
Liu Lang smiled.
"It's very simple. This is a sign of the era of electrical automation. German products are all refined. For example, when Volkswagen cooperated with us to establish a joint venture, we required 80% localization. But at that time we
The level cannot be achieved even 1%.
A car has tens of thousands of parts. We have thousands of companies but can't even make one percent of it. Isn't it ridiculous to think about it? But that's it. Every part of the car must be made to the extreme, and many of it must be perfect.
Fine to a few tenths of a millimeter or even smaller, our original equipment is only suitable for rough benzene parts, and it is not easy to achieve centimeter level.
A car is a symbol of electrical industrialization. It cannot be achieved by relying on bulky machine tools. It can only improve the industrial level. In the future, mechanical equipment will be more sophisticated than now, and many parts will be so small that even our naked eyes cannot see it.
Even a particle of dust will affect the entire equipment. At that time, manufacturing a component had to be completed under near-vacuum conditions. That was the era of showing national strength!"
Sun Hu seemed to understand, but nodded slightly.
The two walked on the road for ten minutes and arrived at the door of Andrews Company. Andrews Company has developed rapidly in the past two years. The original small factory with only 60 or 70 people has now become a medium-sized enterprise with more than 200 people.
The company sign at the entrance is very old, but there are three factories inside that are obviously newly built. There are forklifts coming and going in the factory area, and trucks loaded with goods come and go from time to time.
The inspection team led by Jiang Botao arrived in Dortmund this morning. Schmidt will not be accompanying him anymore. He will be accompanied by a deputy minister. However, they will first visit another steel group. That company smelts titanium alloy steel. This
This kind of steel is a new type of material, mostly used in the aerospace field. The country also seems to have introduced it. This time, I came to inspect it in advance. However, Liu Lang was not interested and went directly to Andrews Company to have a look. It was considered to avoid Jiang Botao and the others. After all, he
His current identity is the chairman of Shengtang Company.
Little Andrew had known for a long time that Liu Lang was coming. He was his great benefactor and of course he couldn't neglect it. So when he got up in the morning, he waited in the concierge at the door.
passed.
Liu Lang did not come to Andrews Company to "steal" their technology, and they were not worthy of his "stealing". A few years ago, Andrews Company was just a company on the verge of bankruptcy. Although they have vigorously carried out research and development in recent years, their technology has declined.
It takes time to accumulate new technologies and technologies. If they were only a third-rate company back then, then they can barely be considered second-rate now. Maybe their technology is first-rate in China, but in Liu Lang's eyes, Andrews Company has already entered the market.
I can't help myself.
But Liu Lang will not underestimate the other party. The technical level of Germany is there. As long as Andrews Company can survive, their technology will inevitably improve rapidly. The relationship between the other party and China is very good. Little Andrew even learned Chinese.
, this relationship is a kind of wealth. As time goes by, the relationship will become deeper and deeper. Maybe the other party will become a major help to Norinco in the future.
Of course, Liu Lang also wanted to buy some parts this time, which will be used in the manufacturing of Norinco's second-generation machine tools.
Little Andrew knew that Liu Lang had a background in industrial studies. He was a top student at the School of Mechanical Engineering at Hua Xia University and later went to Stanford University to further his studies. Even though he was the chairman of Shengtang Company, he was also the chairman of the entertainment company who knew the most about mechanics in the world.
His level was not very low, but even so, little Andrew didn't hide anything from Liu Lang and still took him to visit the core of the company.
Firstly, this was to show his sincerity, and secondly, little Andrew thought it was nothing. Can he learn his unique skills at a glance? This was obviously impossible, so he didn't care.
Liu Lang just looked at it briefly and saw that the other party was developing CNC machine tools. He also asked the other party and learned that they had cooperated with a German engineering chip company. If nothing unexpected happened, Andrews Company would manufacture CNC machine tools within a year.
Although it is only two-axis linkage, as long as you can step into this door, you will take the initiative in the future.
Therefore, Liu Lang feels that Andrews Company is quite promising. This is their background, and they can accurately grasp the development trend of world industry, and even lead the development of world industry.
China is much worse than that. It is always in a leading position, such as CNC machine tools. China is also one of the first countries to develop CNC machine tools. Decades have passed, but the country has not made any progress in this regard.
, this is also the case now. No domestic company has conducted research and development in this area. Only Huaxia Industrial Technology Co., Ltd. is conducting preliminary research and development alone.
Of course, there are two large state-owned machine tool factories that are interested in cooperating with Germany to introduce some CNC machine tools, but at most they are two-axis linkage, and they are just intentions. It may take some time before they are actually introduced.
But importing and independent research and development are two different things. You can't always follow others. Others have three-axis and four-axis linkage. As a result, you haven't figured out two-axis linkage yet, so the gap is a bit far.
