Qin Zhenhua never thought of accumulating the tank design office. The first machine factory is in the grassland city and the design office is located in the capital. These two are completely different units. Although in order to produce three generations of tanks, the two sides cooperate closely, after all, each has their own organization. Now, Mr. Zhu actually said that the tank design office should be merged into the first machine factory!
Of course, this is for Qin Zhenhua's consideration. One department can only have one top leader. If Qin Zhenhua becomes the director of a machine factory, it is impossible for him to be the director of the tank design office. Only when these two departments merge, they can all belong to Qin Zhenhua's leadership.
Now, taking advantage of this merger trend, Qin Zhenhua has provided this opportunity.
Some factories have the ability to produce various equipment or civilian products, making a big profit, but the design institute cannot obtain funding from superiors without design tasks and are extremely poor. Such design institutes hope to be merged into the factory, which can at least have some benefits. Some design institutes take on their own jobs and make money by design, while the corresponding factories are facing the risk of bankruptcy. Therefore, the factory hopes to be merged into the design institute and give him a bite of food.
Different design institutes and factories have different problems, but these have nothing to do with the merger of the first machine factory and tank design institute.
Yimai Factory is a famous military factory in China and produces a variety of ground equipment. It can be said that it is simply the leader of domestic military industry, with rapid development. The tank design institute has strong design capabilities for national key projects. Zhu Lao still has a lot of funds left, so it doesn’t matter who takes advantage of it at all.
Mr. Zhu said to Qin Zhenhua: "This merger is mainly a strong alliance, which is to make our military R&D strength stronger. Look at the merger trends in the military field in the world, and it is becoming more and more powerful."
With the continuous development of technology, more and more funds are required to develop new equipment. Therefore, military factories can only be strong if they are constantly merged.
Look at the United States, this is how it is. Take their fighter jet development as an example. In the past, every factory could take the lead independently, but now? Several companies joined forces to bid. Moreover, even if the factory failed to bid, they could get a share of the winning bidding company and participate in certain R&D projects. This is because the R&D cost too much, and the joint force is the solution.
American military-industrial enterprises have had a strong momentum of mergers over the years. The famous Lockheed Martin Company has not known how many defense companies have been merged.
If the country wants to develop and avoid internal friction, it is necessary to join forces with strong forces. Therefore, the merger of the tank design institute and the first machine factory is almost natural.
Moreover, many people in the tank design institute walked out of the R&D room of the first machine factory, so for them, this was no big deal at all, just treat it as returning to their parents' home.
Mr. Zhu said a lot, but Qin Zhenhua knew that these were all for him to accept this merger plan. No matter what, merging the tank design institute into the one-machine factory will be beneficial to the one-machine factory, which is equivalent to taking advantage of the one-machine factory.
Seeing that Qin Zhenhua didn't say anything, Mr. Zhu continued, "What, do you disagree? I'm afraid that our tank design will take advantage of the factory? This is just like the Tank Armored Vehicle Magazine. We manage it separately internally, separate accounts, and bear the profit and loss at your own expense. Is this okay?"
Qin Zhenhua still didn't speak there.
"Anyway, the superiors have held several meetings to discuss it. This merger cannot be reversed. Just wait for the superiors to notify you. Anyway, your machine factory is a large state-owned enterprise, so you have to listen to the country's words. Your own opposition is invalid."
"Mr. Zhu, stay here. How many years will you do it? When you come up with the third generation of tank modifications, you will be able to retire again?" Qin Zhenhua said: "We need you."
Mr. Zhu was stunned for a moment, spitting out stars and talking for a long time, but he didn't expect that Qin Zhenhua was still thinking about this issue.
Mr. Zhu is not young anymore, but he is still very energetic. After the military parade, his face became even more rosy. If he was a sick old man, Qin Zhenhua would never make this request. He just wanted to cooperate with Mr. Zhu for a longer period of time. Moreover, the third generation of tanks were developed by Mr. Zhu, so he is the most familiar and the modification is inseparable from Mr. Zhu.
"You, you want to give me my old bone here." Zhu Lao said: "I understand what you mean. You ask me to stay and then agree to this merger, right?"
Qin Zhenhua nodded: "Please forgive me for being shameless this time."
"Okay, then I'll stay here and work for a few more years." Mr. Zhu said: "When the third generation tank is modified, you have to let me be the old man, right? At that time, our deputy chief designer will mature. At the very least, let her take the lead."
Qin Zhenhua nodded: "Well, of course there is no problem. By the way, who is the deputy chief designer?"
The chief designer of the third generation tank is Mr. Zhu, but as the deputy chief designer, several have been replaced, so Qin Zhenhua doesn’t know who it is currently.
"You are the most familiar with this person, Xiaoyu." Mr. Zhu said.
Qin Zhenhua was stunned: "Xiaoyu? How can she do it? Mr. Zhu, aren't you making a fool of yourself?"
Wang Xiaoyu is not a major in tank design. She is a major in optical science. At most, electronics is the case, which has nothing to do with the tank chief designer.
"Why am I just making a fool? Our three generations of tanks face many problems. Among them, the problem of the fire control system is a big difficulty. This problem was solved by Xiaoyu." Zhu Lao said: "And with the continuous advancement of technology, the development of the tank body and power system will stagnate, but electronic equipment will continue to develop, and the fire control system will continue to improve. Have you heard of Moore's Law?"
Mr. Zhu started to talk endlessly. In the past, when he was the chief designer of a tank, he needed to work on machinery. What about the future? If he wanted to be the chief designer of a tank, he needed to work on electronics!
Therefore, Wang Xiaoyu is the most suitable choice.
Qin Zhenhua was speechless after hearing Mr. Zhu's explanation. He just didn't want his wife to be too tired, but if his wife had this ability, Qin Zhenhua would definitely support her.
My whole family is fighting for the tank cause of my motherland!
