Chapter 1499: Once Upon a Time

At the regular meeting of the CNOOC Corporation on Monday, after talking about the general work arrangements for the week, Sun Weiguo put down the pen in his hand, leaned back in the chair, and said easily: "Comrades, tell you one thing. ”

“......”

No one spoke, but everyone's expressions were very relaxed, and this relaxation came from Mr. Sun's appearance: Mr. Sun was also very relaxed.

Since Mr. Sun is very relaxed, what are we so nervous?

"That's the case," Sun Weiguo continued: "Isn't this our building a new offshore drilling platform, just last Thursday, Wang Dazhi, the general manager of COMAC, approached me and said that their COMAC Group has also built a gas turbine, and I hope that the main power generation system of our offshore drilling platform can consider using their gas turbine as power." ”

As soon as Sun Weiguo's words were finished, everyone immediately talked about it......

"COMAC also has gas turbines? Don't they build airplanes?" This is completely unheard of COMAC's ERB211 gas turbine, for Sun Weiguo revealed the news, the executive looked puzzled and confused.

"Yes," the person next to him happened to hear about it, and immediately explained to him: "I heard that it was changed on the basis of the RB211 aero engine, and I got the type certificate and production license some time ago, and it seems that the evaluation above is very high." ”

"RB211? What does their RB211 have to do with the RB211 gas turbine generator set of the British Rolls-Royce Group that we purchased before?"

"I don't know very well, is there a relationship between the two? Isn't it the COMAC Group that is rubbing off on the fame of the Rolls-Royce Group?"

"This should be unlikely, for a company as large as COMAC, they still have to consider the ...... for a while."

............

"Ahem......"

In the face of everyone's discussion, Sun Weiguo coughed lightly.

The conference room fell silent.

"This gas turbine of COMAC Group, it is like this," Sun Weiguo explained: "When COMAC was just established, it introduced a full set of technology and patents and production equipment for RB211 engine from Rolls-Royce Group in the United Kingdom. The certification of the Royce Group achieves the same level as the RB211 engine produced by the Rolls-Royce Group in the United Kingdom. ”

Scare!

And such a thing?!

Sun Weiguo's remarks shocked everyone in the conference room: Is COMAC so good? Not only have they introduced the technology of the RB211 aero engine from the aviation giant Rolls-Royce Group and achieved complete independent production, but the RB211 aero engine they produced and manufactured has been recognized by the British, and the overall technical level is the same as that of the original Rolls-Royce Group.

It's terrifying!

Everyone's first reaction was not to believe it, but this came out of the mouth of their own general manager, and everyone couldn't believe it.

For the enterprises in the Huaxia aviation manufacturing industry, the "tay" series turbofan engine and RB211 series large bypass produced by COMAC and COMAC have already been thunderous than the turbofan engine.

Because he didn't know, someone immediately asked Sun Weiguo: "Mr. Sun, aren't the Western countries led by the United States engaged in a technological blockade against us, how can COMAC get the technology of the RB211 aero engine?"

"This ......" Sun Weiguo touched his nose, wanting to laugh but not too embarrassed to laugh: "COMAC was actually forced to buy it by the British." ”

???

As soon as Sun Weiguo's words came out, everyone was confused: What does it mean to be forced to buy by the British? Also, isn't this kind of high-thrust aero engine with a large bypass ratio always been a technology that the West has tightly sealed on us, and how can there be such a thing as "forced to buy"?

"I also deliberately asked an old friend who was familiar with this incident back then," After sending Wang Dazhi and Meng Haibo away on Thursday, Sun Weiguo deliberately learned about the situation of the year, and Sun Weiguo was a little nervous about this understanding: "As you know, our country had a honeymoon period with the United Kingdom and the United States, especially with the United Kingdom, as early as the mid-70s, our country introduced it from the British Rolls-Royce Group." Spey's MK202 aero engine, this engine is also the engine on the 'Flying Leopard' fighter-bomber of our country's naval aviation force, so you can also see that during this period of time, the relationship between our country and the United Kingdom is still very good......"

CNOOC Corporation and HNA are relatively familiar, and many people know about the "Spey" engine and the "Flying Leopard" fighter-bomber, so when Sun Weiguo said this, everyone nodded.

Sun Weiguo continued: "Later, Chen Geng and we jointly established COMAC, at that time Chen Geng promised us that he would introduce an advanced high-thrust civil aviation engine from the United Kingdom as the premise of the formation of COMAC, at this time Chen Geng found the British Rolls-Royce Group, and wanted to introduce the subsequent upgraded version of the 'Spey' engine from the Rolls-Royce Group, which is the 'Tay' series engine on the Fokker series aircraft of the familiar COMAC Group.

However, at that time, the British were relatively dark, and they also knew that our country's level in aero engine manufacturing was very scummy, so they put forward a request to Chen Geng, saying that if you Chen Geng want to introduce the technology of the 'tay' series of aero engines, you must introduce the technology of RB211 aero engines together, otherwise you will not be able to. The technology of the tay' series of aero engines was not sold to Chen Geng, and the reason why he did this was because the British were sure that even if we imitated it, we would not be able to build an extremely difficult aero engine like RB211...... Of course, everyone can also imagine that the price is definitely not cheap......"

"Hahaha......"

As soon as Sun Weiguo said this, everyone burst into laughter!

This thing is so funny, a little thought makes people feel hilarious: the British originally wanted to pit Chen Geng, but they didn't expect that Chen Geng, who was pitted, after more than ten years, the COMAC Group that was pitted back then actually built the RB211 engine, and the technical level was still on par with the original British goods, I don't know what kind of mood the British people who felt that they had robbed Chen Geng and made a lot of money, after knowing that this matter would end in this way.
