Chapter 1001: A Piece of Hearts from Korean Friends
Daewoo Group can't float if he wants to.
As a company capable of producing the F-16 and stepping up the development of light fighters, it has now obtained an FCNB-2000 civil airliner project of the same class as the Boeing 757 and A340.
In terms of this product line, not to mention in Asia, but also in the world, Daewoo Group has beaten 99.8% of aviation manufacturing companies.
What Canada's Bombardier, what Embraer, what Indonesia's National Aerospace Industries, what Hindustan Aeronautics and, oh, by the way, China's Aviation Industry Corporation, all of them are younger brothers in front of their Daewoo Group.
As for Japan, which is often called the number one industry in Asia, it is even more difficult to put on the table, and no matter what else, a large civil aircraft with a take-off weight of 180 tons can make the entire Japanese industry kneel.
It also produces Boeing 767 and Boeing 777;
Look at our Korean nation, which has begun to build its own big plane!
That is, the two giants of Boeing and Airbus can be slightly stronger than Daewoo Group, but that is also temporary, after all, Asia, as the fastest growing economic region, will inevitably become the region with the greatest potential in the field of civil aviation.
Daewoo Group, which has been deeply involved in Asia for many years, naturally has extraordinary sales channels, and as long as it occupies Asia, it will be able to form a three-legged trend with Boeing and Airbus.
Combined with secret transactions, rebates at any cost, and crazy personal sales, Daewoo Group believes that within ten years, the FCNB-2000 civil airliner will sweep the world, and the glory of the Korean nation, the first race in the universe, will once again shine on all mankind after 10,000 years.
However, the future is bright, but the road is tortuous.
And this tortuous road lies with the Tengfei Group, a partner of Daewoo Group.
According to the previous agreement, KAI Aerospace Group, a subsidiary of Daewoo Group, will undertake 55.7% of the production of the FCNB-2000 civil airliner.
Tengfei Group is responsible for 22.3% of the production share with domestic aviation companies such as Chenggong Group, Northwest Airlines Plant, and Northeast Airlines Plant.
The remaining 22% goes to other aviation production suppliers around the world.
For example, for aero engines, South Korea's Daewoo half of the eyes look down on the products of Tengfei Group, but they have a soft spot for Rolls-Royce's Trent series.
The same is true for avionics systems, and the semi-finished products developed by Tengfei Group, Daewoo Group, don't even bother to look at it, and directly subscribe to the customized version with Honeywell in the United States.
There is also the landing gear, and the Koreans are more confident in Germany's ability to process large structural parts, and they shake their heads at the stupid big black and coarse equipment that originated in the Soviet Union, saying that it is impossible for a failed country to have a successful equipment.
Similarly, the machining of the wings, the configuration of the sensors, the standards of the depression system and the selection of materials.
After a series of moves, it is not said that the FCNB-2000 civil airliner has been changed beyond recognition, but it has also made Tengfei Group's mother almost unrecognizable.
Of course, this is not the point of the discord between the two sides, Daewoo Group loves how to change Tengfei Group not only does not stop it, but is happy to see it.
After all, Rolls-Royce's Trent aero engines, Honeywell's avionics systems and other important accessories are not unavailable in the international market, but the price is generally high.
There is no way, as an aviation manufacturing enterprise that has stepped on the red line, there is really a ceiling, and that is the restriction on you of the entire global industry chain mastered by aviation giants.
You don't need to deliberately stick your neck, you only need to increase the cost several times in some key components and key technologies, and then get a little stuck in the delivery time, which can make your competitiveness plummet.
And when you desperately break through the process of these technologies or key components, the giants have sent the next generation of civil airliners to the blue sky, and then there is another wave of dimensionality reduction strikes.
There is no way, civil airliners, as large-scale consumer industrial products, are made to make money, and the giants increase your costs and use technology to extend your R&D cycle, resulting in a decline in the competitiveness of your products, and the final result is a huge loss.
Of course, the former Soviet Union's behavior of taking the will of the country and ignoring the cost is an exception, but the problem is that after the disintegration, Russia's civil aviation manufacturing industry is also a mess.
Still not advisable.
Therefore, Tengfei Group, which has been faltering on large aircraft, does not want the advanced supporting systems in Europe and the United States, but the problem is that people shout extremely high prices one by one, and the delivery time is extremely long for you.
It's like if you order a takeaway, the price is three or four times more expensive than other similar meals, not to mention, the takeaway brother delivers food like a snail, which can be so slow that you doubt your life.
So much so that you are so hungry that you have to cook a packet of instant noodles with two eggs, and after you finish eating Meimei, the takeaway has not yet been delivered.
Are you hungry and waiting, or will you just fill your stomach with one bite first?
Ascendas Group wisely chose the latter.
Very simply, Tengfei Group only does theoretical accumulation and technical verification in the early stage of large aircraft, rather than really coming up with a large aircraft and putting it into operation immediately.
Not to mention the Tengfei Group, it is unrealistic for the national aviation industry to be bundled together, not to mention other Y-10 is a typical example.
There are political factors, but it cannot be said that there are indeed some problems with the positioning of the Y-10, coupled with the imitation of the Boeing 707, which is relatively backward in technology, and the domestic market has not yet been formed, all kinds of factors together led to the tragedy of the Y-10.
Tengfei Group's foothold is to make money, of course, it can't be lucky-10 old road, so while eating enough, I have been thinking about where to fight the tooth sacrifice of the next-door neighbor.
The cooperation with the Tupolev Design Bureau made Tengfei Group realize that there is a huge gap in the overall design, structural mechanics, material selection, hydraulic system, control system and other aspects of large civil airliners.
The cooperation with Daewoo Group has made Tengfei Group see that Honeywell's avionics system is indeed superior to its own products; the landing gear produced in Germany is really much better than that produced in Russia; and Rolls-Royce's Trent engine is really better than its own WD-60ML large duct than turbofan engine in terms of comprehensive indicators.
So Tengfei Group, through the cooperation with Daewoo Group, is called a head cantilever beam, taper stabbing stock, and can learn energetically.
In Zhuang Jianye's own words, his family paid $600 million for living expenses from his eldest parent, CITIC, and the rest is the tuition fees paid by Daewoo and the South Korean government and foundation.
This is whether it is good to study abroad at public expense.
In this case, how can we live up to the wishes of our Korean friends? Therefore, we encourage the employees of Tengfei Group sent to the joint venture factory to fully carry forward and ask without shame, the three-person line must have the Chinese tradition of our division and our three provinces and our body, and it is best to let the Koreans replace all the FCNB-2000 civil airliners with the most advanced supporting facilities in the West, so that Confucius will definitely give a big thumbs up to the Tengfei Group after 2,000 years.
Therefore, it is completely meaningless for the two sides to apply advanced Western equipment, and the real difference is in the ownership of the FCNB-2000 civil airliner assembly plant.
Zhuang Jianye can turn a blind eye to other aspects, but the ownership of the assembly plant is tough, the reason is that South Korea's Daewoo Group does not have the ability to assemble aircraft.
