It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish!
Some things still need to be pushed, and only when you have pressure can you be motivated.
"If I give you nine-axis and five-linkage components, can a large-scale CNC machining center be manufactured in China?"
"sure."
“But China can’t even build qualified three-axis machine tools now.”
"Three-axis CNC machine tools can actually be manufactured in China. However, the parts are not available in batches, resulting in short equipment life, poor accuracy, and poor maintenance.
Because the price/performance ratio is not high, domestic companies would rather use imported goods than domestic ones.”
"Can't it be solved?"
“Mass production involves cooperation among many units and ministries, and it cannot be solved overnight.
But large-scale CNC machining centers only require one or two. If there are key components, they can be assembled through nationwide research."
"How about this. What key equipment do you want for the nine-axis CNC center? I will get some to show my ability. At the same time, I will place an order with you, such as a thousand three-axis CNC machine tools.
I can provide you with any parts you are missing, just treat them as processing and assembly with supplied materials. After completing this first step, we will discuss further cooperation."
Zhou Qingfeng's idea is very simple. He wants to force the country to improve its technical capabilities. It will also provide convenience for himself.
Nine-axis five-linkage machine tools are only used in very small heavy industries. But in general industrial fields, three-axis CNC machine tools are enough.
Zhou Qingfeng wants to engage in economic development and manufacturing, so he has a greater need for ordinary CNC machine tools. However, when he buys complete machines from e-commerce, he purchases them based on weight, and can only buy four at a time.
The key components of the whole machine weigh only one-tenth at most. If the assembly can be completed domestically, it will immediately greatly improve Zhou Qingfeng's ability to obtain equipment.
It's a win-win.
Furthermore, assembly is not easy.
A lot of public knowledge in later generations said that the domestic manufacturing industry could only do assembly.
Build a mobile phone and claim that the chips are from abroad. Build a high-speed rail and claim that the technology is imported. Build a C919 and claim that everything in the engine is imported.
This routine has not changed in decades.
Since the 1990s, the public has been saying that domestic refrigerators, televisions, and washing machines will not be manufactured. If they continue to yell, there will be no need to produce anything abroad.
But who can graduate from college after being born in the womb? Who can’t graduate from babbling to maturity? To engage in industry, you need to pay more attention to science.
Do you want to build a nine-axis machine in China?
sure!
First build the three-axis for me.
Lack of quality parts?
Uncle Zhou delivers the goods to your door, giving you whatever you want. Even if he only makes a shell in China, he can save half of his e-commerce purchasing weight.
Even if it is just assembly, only by having an in-depth understanding of the entire system can we assemble the different parts. Most countries can only do sub-systems and cannot even assemble them.
But Zhou Qingfeng's request to move forward really caught Director Chen off guard. The situation was completely different from what he expected.
Before, I thought about spending money to solve the problem. After all, even in the 'Toshiba incident', Japan made ten times the profit, but the Soviet Union only paid more than 17 million US dollars.
Although the country is poor, it can still squeeze out the money by gritting its teeth.
But now this boss is not short of money. Instead, he is like a teacher holding a pointer, coaxing and forcing the domestic manufacturing industry to upgrade.
"I want to ask my superiors for instructions." Director Chen did not dare to make any arbitrary claims, so he got up and changed places to call China to report.
Lao Xiao seized the opportunity and asked: "Mr. Zhou, why do you make such a request?"
This is a reasonable request!
"If I just want to make money, it's enough for me to engage in the entertainment industry. Even if I stay in Hong Kong and engage in real estate, I can be rich in the world. But I really need a thousand three-axis CNC machine tools, which is not too much.
‘Holy Light’ is engaged in manufacturing, I need CNC machine tools, stamping and forging equipment, new steel and aluminum materials, engine gearboxes, chemical engineering, chips and semiconductors, many, many more.”
With so many needs, wouldn’t it be exhausting for Uncle Zhou to rely on the ‘Holy Light’?
Zhou Qingfeng smiled and shrugged. He was very confident about the future, but he also knew that the road ahead was full of obstacles. There were no less troubles at home than abroad.
In order to avoid having a hot face and a cold butt, it is better to have a way forward and a retreat in everything.
Director Chen was on the phone for a whole hour, and he didn't know how much the phone bill cost. When he came back, he asked Zhou Qingfeng: "Mr. Zhou, do you have a fax machine here?"
"Irene." Zhou Qingfeng called to his maid, "Help Chen Chu, he wants to use our fax machine."
There are all kinds of electronic equipment in luxury apartments.
Director Chen reported the fax machine number to Imperial City, and a few minutes later a few pages of temporary handwritten demand list appeared in Zhou Qingfeng's hand.
Imperial City is very practical, and the conditions for the first step are not high at all. Chen Mu explained: "If possible, we would like to get a batch of machine tool tools that can be used immediately."
The demand list lists about thirty types of cutting tools, basically including high-speed steel, carbide, cubic boron nitride and ceramic materials.
Some can be produced domestically, but the quality is not good. Some can be imported domestically, but the price is too expensive. Some are restricted from export abroad and can only be purchased domestically through special channels.
What’s more, it doesn’t even have a specification number. It is a new type of tool that has published papers or research prospects abroad and is still in a conceptual state.
I added a few paragraphs at the end of the list, hoping to purchase some high-power silicon controlled thyristors and gallium nitride MOS field effect transistors. I specified that I wanted high-current models above 600V, saying they would be used to build intermediate-frequency smelting furnaces.
If gallium nitride is not available, gallium arsenide will work.
By the way, I also want some industrial control chips. I have high-speed A/D conversion components, and I hope to get some.
If not, please ask again next time.
After reading this list of demands, Zhou Qingfeng's face turned gloomy. The knives in the front were fine, but the demands in the back made him curse secretly.
What a liar!
Do you think I'm really stupid?
Gallium nitride and gallium arsenide, MOS tubes made of these two materials are obviously used to build radars.
As for industrial control chips, where do you want to use them? Don't tell me it's ballistic missiles.
As for high-speed A/D conversion components, this thing has a wide range of uses. There is no industrial field where it cannot be used. For example, building an optical or radar reconnaissance satellite or something, it is very good for attitude control and data collection.
Director Chen handed over the list of requirements and stared at Zhou Qingfeng's face, hoping to see something from his expression. He waited for a long time, then lowered his voice and asked: "Mr. Zhou, is that okay?"
Zhou Qingfeng raised his head angrily and stared at the director from the imperial capital.
Chen Chu felt a little uneasy, "If that doesn't work, it's okay to meet half of the above requirements. For example, for knives and the like, the key is to have more quantity and cheaper prices. Domestic people pay more attention to these."
Lao Xiao wasn't very technical, but seeing that Zhou Qingfeng's expression didn't seem right, he helped, "The list you listed must be difficult. How is it possible that the ministries and commissions have everything they want?"
It’s not easy for Mr. Zhou either. He relies on hk to make money from the entertainment industry and develops the manufacturing industry in the mainland with a pure heart. You can’t be too difficult. I think it’s better to do something simple.”
Zhou Qingfeng turned his head and scolded Xiao Jinlang first, "Old Xiao, you are not a good person either. You two are in the same group. But you two are pretty good at provoking generals.
If you say I can't do it, I won't be happy. Aren't you just asking for knives? Aren't you just asking for a larger quantity? Aren't you just asking for electronic devices that can be used in military production?
Men can't say no.
Since you dare to make this list, I will satisfy you all. Just wait, I am like Aladdin's genie today, you can get whatever you want.
But you must also remember that I have met your requirements, and you must also meet mine.
Okay, here’s the list of requirements, you can go out.
I'll let you know when I have the goods ready."
Zhou Qingfeng waved his hand and drove Xiao and Chen out of his apartment.
Returning to the busy streets of Central in a daze, Xiao Jinlang was awakened by the unfamiliar environment. He took Chen Mu's arm and asked in a low voice: "What are the things in the list used for?"
Chen Chu shook his head and refused to say anything. He only said, "Don't ask. I can't tell you if I ask."
