Chapter 414: Independent Innovation!

When Peng Huqi heard Yang Jie's words, he hesitated for a moment and looked at Han Shaoqi.

"Don't hide from it, whatever the situation is. At this time, Director Zhang, who was sitting on the side, spoke.

Han Shaoqi was silent for a moment and nodded.

"Our trial production of Huaxia Star high-speed train on the basis of the purchase of parts from abroad assembly, the cost is higher than Japan's Kawasaki Heavy Industries Shinkansen E2 series electric EMU, this year's prototype in the trial operation of the train network interruption, main converter switch breakdown and overcurrent, inverter failure, gearbox oil leakage, speed sensor failure, air conditioning failure and other operational failures of almost 58 pieces. ”

"The 'Huaxia Star' is still just an experimental product, and there is still a long way to go between industrialization and engineering," Peng Huqi said...... "Since I have participated in the trial production of this high-speed train tractor, I am very clear about this." ”

"Director Zhang, how big is the investment amount of the 'Huaxia Star' project?" Yang Jie looked at Zhang Shuguang at this time and asked.

"It is true that this project is a key industrialization project arranged by the former State Planning Commission, which is jointly completed by 12 enterprises, scientific research institutes and universities, with the state allocating 40 million yuan, the Ministry of Railways allocating 40 million yuan, and the enterprise undertaking the remaining 50 million ......."

Speaking of this, Zhang Shuguang was also a little embarrassed.

"It's really generous......" Yang Jie also spit out a breath of turbidity, such a small amount of funds to develop high-speed trains is a drop in the bucket, which does not force the following companies to purchase ready-made parts from abroad for assembly.

However, it is also a great thing that the prototype can be assembled and imitated in such a short period of time with such a small amount of R&D funds in China, and the train marshalling debugging and high-speed comprehensive performance experiments can be completed one after another.

At present, the R&D expenditure of the communication equipment company under the Huaxing group company has exceeded more than 10 billion yuan in a year, and the R&D expenditure of all group companies in previous years is more than 40 billion yuan, which is converted into more than 5 billion US dollars.

Such a large investment in research and development is also the only one in China, and in previous years, Huatai Group Company has invested more than 10 billion yuan in research and development.

In previous years, Huaxia's investment in all domestic scientific research and experimental development has just exceeded 100 billion yuan, and a private enterprise has invested more than 40 billion yuan in research and development, which is also the reason why Zhang Shuguang and others are very embarrassed.

"Yang Shao, China's passenger transport tension situation is very strict, if the original innovation skills are complete and mature before solving, will pay incalculable time and economic costs, 'Huaxia Star' high-speed train is still experimenting, and will not be abandoned. ”

Zhang Shuguang said.

"Director Zhang, our Huaxing Group Company also wants to participate in the project of the 'Huaxia Star' high-speed train, and set up a joint venture company with CSR Group Company to be responsible for this project, what do you think?" Yang Jie looked at Zhang Shuguang at this time and asked.

"Well, I'm going to ask my superiors. Zhang Shuguang didn't expect Yang Jie to suddenly make this request, and he didn't dare to be this master.

"That's as it should be. Yang Jie smiled and nodded, he was not worried that the Ministry of Railways would refuse the participation of Huaxing Group Company.

Over the years, Huaxing Group Company has participated in major national defense and key science and technology fields, and is a very special existence.

In his memory, the Ministry of Railways put forward "three musts" in the 04 EMU bidding documents, one is that the key skills of the foreign party must be transferred, the second is that the price must be preferential, and the third is that the Chinese brand must be applied. ”

In fact, over the years, the results of the implementation of exchanging skills with the market have awakened the high-level leaders, and the key core skills are not to come, to buy, or to buy.

The Ministry of Railways is very clear about this, and also knows that the introduction of high-speed trains is related to the interests of the country and the nation, and must be consistent with the outside world, so the Ministry of Railways first brought together dozens of enterprises under the CSR group and the CNR group, emphasizing that in the negotiations with foreign parties, only the two main engine manufacturers of CSR and CNR will negotiate with foreign manufacturers, and other domestic enterprises will not contact with foreign parties.

It is precisely with this request that the Ministry of Railways has always firmly controlled the initiative in the following negotiations.

Just when the Ministry of Railways invited the first bidding for the 200 km/h EMU project, the German company Siemens held the mentality that this project was the only one for me, and offered a sky-high priceβ€”β€”

The price of each prototype is 350 million yuan, and the skill transfer fee is 390 million euros!

In the negotiations with the Ministry of Railways, the skills transfer fee was reduced to less than 150 million euros, at 250 million yuan per prototype, but Siemens' negotiators refused to budge until late at night before the bid was opened.

The next day, Alstom of France, Kawasaki of Japan, Bombardier of Canada and two domestic OEMs won the bid, but Siemens was out.

As a result of this incident, Siemens' stock plummeted, the president resigned, and all members of the negotiation team were dismissed, only to win another tender a year later, and together with Tangshan Locomotive and Rolling Stock Factory, they won the contract for the procurement of 60 EMUs with a speed of 300 kilometers per hour.

Siemens not only reduced the price of the prototype to 250 million yuan per train, but also pushed the skill transfer fee to 80 million euros.

In these negotiations of future generations, it is under the dual effect of temptation and pressure that foreign high-speed train giants have approved the transfer of technology, and have also created a matter of cutting the 1.5 billion national dollar offer of the French company Alstom overnight.

In this process, according to the provisions of the EMU procurement agreement, foreign enterprises should not only provide domestic companies with design, production, testing and experimental debugging skills materials and production process equipment, but also conduct comprehensive skills training for domestic employees.

At that time, 142 professional and technical staff, 192 operational workers and 55 management staff went to foreign enterprises to study on the spot, and a total of 10,737 days of study allowed 242 people to obtain 414 qualification certificates.

It is also after nearly 3 years of digestion and absorption that Huaxia Guo has completely controlled 9 key skills and 10 important supporting skills of EMUs.

On this basis, although a total of 160 columns of CRH with a speed of 200 kilometers per hour were purchased, only 6 columns were imported from the whole vehicle, 12 columns were imported from the domestic assembly of parts, and the other 142 columns were all independently designed and produced by domestic enterprises that controlled foreign skills.

Moreover, when Yang Jie was reborn, the localization degree of CRH with a speed of 200 kilometers per hour had reached 85%, and the core skills had been basically localized, and on this basis, without any foreign participation, he had the ability to design, produce and produce high-speed trains with a speed of 300 kilometers per hour, and began to grab orders with these "masters" overseas.

This process, which took more than a few decades, proved that the strategy adopted by the Ministry of Railways was very correct.

However, now the Ministry of Railways is aiming at the fuel cell technology and motor technology of Huaxing Group Company and the technical strength behind the group company, and Yang Jie naturally wants to take over the industrial project of "Huaxia Star" and enter the domestic high-speed train field.

After all, the technical route of fuel cell high-speed train is very different from that of foreign high-speed trains, and it can only be innovated independently.

The key domestic high-speed train market is very large, the future generations of domestic high-speed train construction for more than 10 years into a total of trillions of scale, only in service trains reached 2,500, the high-speed train procurement alone is more than 600 billion, if you add the train operation every day to consume hydrogen oil difference to reach more than 80,000 tons, according to the current hydrogen oil price difference will reach 1.2 billion.

The price of hydrogen oil can become cheaper than gasoline as the scale increases, but it will cost at least hundreds of millions every day, and the scale will be close to 200 billion yuan a year.

The use of pantograph and high-voltage grid power supply method consumes only one-third of the electricity every day, but the construction cost of supporting power stations and high-voltage lines alone will be trillions, and if thermal power generation is used, the pollution caused will be greater.

In the face of such a large market scale, Yang Jie is naturally very tempted, since the Ministry of Railways found himself this time, he is willing to spend money to take over the "China Star" project, CSR Group Company also has skills and talent reserves in this regard, what is lacking is only R & D funds and a fair R & D governance system.

Moreover, Huaxing Group Company has also accumulated a large number of technology patents in fuel cell technology and motor technology and control system and mechanical processing equipment and technology, and it is not particularly difficult to transplant these skills to high-speed trains.
