Mr. Ryuji Fujita, Vice President of Toshiba Machine Tool Division, can finally return to his country.
In 1992, 'Holy Light' hooked up with the Mitsui Consortium with a US$30 billion order and requested the purchase of semiconductor production lines. Considering the good communication atmosphere between the two parties at the time, Fujita Ryuji was sent to the 'Daqin' machine tool factory to assemble two nine-axis five-link machine tools.
It was the four machine tools that caused the 'Toshiba Incident' that year, two of which were obtained by the 'Holy Light' from the Baltic Shipyard.
Later events were unpredictable. Fujita got deeper and deeper into the "Holy Light" group. He was unable to return to the country because of his public "extreme remarks", and the "Asia Club", a small self-pleasure club he participated in, was investigated.
.
It was originally a short-term business trip, but Fujita spent 1992, 1993, and until 1994 at the Holy Light. Now the situation has finally calmed down, and the Vice Minister can finally return to Tokyo.
Sitting in the terminal of Teito Airport, the well-dressed Fujita felt like a lost dog. Looking back on his two years in China, it felt like a world away and filled with emotion.
Fujita first helped assemble Toshiba machine tools. In just the past two years, Daqin Machine Tool Factory has developed and produced its own nine-axis five-linkage CNC machining center.
Just two years!
You must know that the former Soviet Union purchased four "nine-axis five-linkage" units from Toshiba and was satisfied with the production of large marine propellers. It never thought of making its own.
After "Holy Light" got a second-hand "nine-axis five-linkage", it began to think about producing it by itself before the assembly was completed.
When Da Qin's new machine tool rolled off the assembly line, the entire city of Hanzhong set off firecrackers to celebrate. They perfectly used machines to produce machines, and relying on rapidly developing semiconductor technology, their performance was even better than Toshiba's original products.
Bang bang bang... Thinking of the super large CNC machining center covered in red and colorful decorations, Fujita Ryuji ignored the surprise of the passengers around him and gave himself a few slaps in the face.
His face turned red.
In order to master that important weapon of the country, 'Holy Light' needs to break through more than a dozen difficulties such as numerical control systems, servo mechanisms, precision measurements, and advanced cutting tools. Being able to produce this thing is equivalent to progress in the entire industrial system.
The success of the development of the 'Machining Center' of 'Da Qin' was greatly attributed to Fujita. This is simply because he is the president of the 'Japanese Federation of Employees in the Holy Light'.
What a shame!
‘Holy Light’ has gathered dozens of domestic scientific research institutions, hundreds of supporting factories, and a R&D team of more than 2,000 people. One-third of the team is Japanese.
In 1992, Japan's economy was on the edge of a cliff. Now it's 1994, and Japan has fallen to the bottom of the pit.
Thousands of Japanese are desperate because of the economic crisis. The "Yakuza" in Tokyo are happy to sell those who owe huge debts like piglets to the "Holy Light" - it is impossible to commit suicide, you must do it.
live.
These people were nominally recruited by Fujita, the president of the Federation, and are contributing to the "four modernizations construction."
Ordinarily, forcing one's own professional and technical personnel to work at the homes of potential rivals is a proper act of subsidizing the enemy. But 'Yakuza' doesn't care. Making money is the first priority.
Every time he thought about this, Fujita Ryuji wished he could hit him to death. If he hadn't wanted to remain useful and loyal to the emperor, he might not have been able to persist.
It is precisely because of the "experienced" R&D team that the "Daqin" machine tool factory completed the "nine-axis five-linkage" product in two years.
This not only produces machine tools, but also trains teams.
For example, machine tool design involves a lot of complex mathematical knowledge. Many mathematics majors from famous domestic universities originally went abroad to find jobs, but now they are left with monthly salaries of tens of thousands.
Due to the participation of a large number of Japanese engineering personnel, this project not only saved time, but also cost less than 100 million in research and development expenses, created thousands of high-paying jobs, and supported nearly 10,000 ordinary workers.
Technology is often just a layer of window paper. Once it is pierced, it means nothing. With this team and an overall progressive industrial system, ‘Da Qin’ can continue to produce and develop the same type of products.
I remember that Toshiba sold four "nine-axis five-linkage" units to the former Soviet Union, which caused an international chaos. But now, "Holy Light" has broken through this thing, and it will be sold casually from now on.
well......
Fujita's heart was filled with tears, and he felt that he had become a national sinner. The Showa patriots would never show up again.
Originally, he hoped that domestic companies would be superstitious about foreign technology and not recognize the level of ‘Da Qin’. But this does not exist within the ‘Shengguang’ Group.
There are too many domestic companies that rely on "Holy Light" to make a living. Mr. Zhou wants to affiliate companies to try out his new products for free and compensate for any problems.
With the golden brand name ‘Holy Light’, many companies are rushing to use it. There will definitely be problems during the trial process of new products, but the maintenance team is stationed in the factory and is on call at any time.
After a few years to accumulate enough experience, better products will naturally come out.
It's just a waste of money.
‘Holy Light’ has already saved almost 95% of the cost in research and development, and doesn’t mind making up for it later. Anyway, it can earn back tenfold or a hundredfold in the future.
Machine tools are just one of the heavy manufacturing equipment that 'Holy Light' has achieved breakthroughs in the past two years, and there are many others.
For example, we obtained two 75,000-ton die forging presses from Lao Maozi. These can be used to produce high value-added products such as passenger aircraft landing gear, engine turbine disks, and oil pipeline valves.
Not long after the two 'Kings of Die Forging' were installed, 'Holy Light' immediately started to break through and build an 80,000-ton one. If the 80,000-ton one was too difficult, it would be fine to build a 60,000-ton one first.
‘Holy Light’ itself does not have the technical capabilities in this area, but it has money!
Mao’s current economy is worse than Japan’s. A bunch of Mao engineers are so poor that they come to work for the Holy Light with a monthly salary of one thousand US dollars.
We also formed a joint domestic and foreign R&D team, and it is expected that the 60,000-ton project will be successful by the end of 1994. The 80,000-ton project will not have any problems in another two years at most.
Anyway, there are now two 75,000-ton ‘Die Forging King’, which basically meet the current demand. There is no rush at all in terms of research and development, and we will strive for excellence as much as possible.
There are many similar ones.
Heavy-duty gantry cranes for shipbuilding, marine titanium alloy processing, ultra-supercritical thermal power generating units, special smelting equipment, high-thrust turbofan engines, there are more than a dozen categories and dozens of projects.
Some were dismantled from Maozi, some were developed by themselves, and some were smuggled in for no apparent reason. In short, 'Holy Light' was worried about the depreciation of the money on hand, and it had invested heavily in heavy industry in the past two years.
Now some projects have been successful, such as the 'Daqin' machine tool. Some projects are advancing rapidly, such as die forging presses. Some projects have taken root, such as special smelting equipment. Some have just started, such as turbofan engines.
"It's only been two years."
Fujita was sitting in the departure lounge, with all kinds of memories floating in his mind. His mind was filled with confusing news that he had personally participated in, indirectly known about, and heard from hearsay.
"Other people are doing five-year plans, and they will reach a higher level in five years. But 'Holy Light' is progressing too fast, and there will be a big difference in two years. Recently, the president is working on 'Holy Light University'. I don't know if it will happen in another two years."
, what kind of monster will it develop into?”
Shaking the ticket in his hand, Fujita didn't know what to think. The boarding reminder at the airport had already sounded, and the flight to Tokyo started checking tickets. He slowly walked to the boarding gate with his luggage.
Before boarding the plane, Fujita's mobile phone rang. He glanced at the number and saw that it was Vice President Watanabe Yu. He shook his head and did not answer the phone. Instead, he turned off his phone, checked his ticket, and boarded the plane.
Alas... I haven't been home for two years. Fujita has finally made up his mind to return to Japan. No one can stop him.
