Chapter 723: Demon Capital Planning
Whether it is Hu Wenhai or some other high-level insiders in China, everyone has a consensus on Gemai's shares, which is basically a mirror that does not count. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Once the Chinese side takes over the shares of a major US military industrial enterprise, it will not only be invalidated, but will also seriously affect the relations between China and the United States. This is as if the Americans were going to get involved in the northern industry, and it was a serious diplomatic incident that touched the bottom line of various countries.
Today, only a very small number of people know Hu Wenhai's role in Grumman's acquisition of McDonnell Douglas, and it is still a top secret within Grumman. The reason is not that Gemai is really sincere to act as a spy, but that now Gemai's entire lifeline is in Hu Wenhai's hands.
Once this deadly threat is lost, and the Chinese side is still holding on to the shares of Gmay, then it will only take a moment for both sides to tear their faces apart.
Instead of everyone turning against each other at that time, it is better to use this part of the resources to cultivate the real "common spies" within the GMC company. Compared with the fragile combination of interests of Gemai and Hu Wenhai, the personal attachment of a certain part of the "American traitors" is more solid.
Hu Wenhai came up with such a condition in front of Douglas, and simply and neatly captured the next president of the company.
Douglas is currently booked for the position of vice president of the commercial aircraft business at the combined Gomer, and it is foreseeable that the commercial aircraft business that will enter the Chinese market will usher in greater growth in the next few years compared to the military ATF program of the gold-swallowing giant.
With such a performance support, Douglas became the president of GMAC.
And for a large company like GMA, the president is still not the end. For example, although Norton is the president of Grumman, after retirement, he has become an ordinary individual shareholder, at most he has a seat on the board of directors.
Retail investors who buy and sell stocks on the stock market are afraid of becoming shareholders by speculating in stocks, but for people like Douglas, they dream of becoming a major shareholder in the company they work for.
With Hu Wenhai's support, Douglas is likely to become the majority shareholder of more than 2% of the company's shares in the future. Such a shareholding ratio is already quite a pivotal force for Gemai, which has a complex shareholding composition.
Hu Wenhai's promise is equivalent to turning Douglas from a part-time worker into a veritable boss. The price paid is only a small one, and the $16.7 billion Chinese market can already enjoy the most meticulous care from McDonnell Douglas.
Compared with Boeing and Airbus, McDonnell Douglas has always been generous when it comes to transfer technology. Isn't it the Asian Delivery Center? Isn't it just increasing the proportion of local suppliers? Isn't it even the Asian Design Center, or simply a copy of McDonnell Douglas in China? What's the big deal?
Douglas has no burden on this, and a large number of BBA models have completed localized production in China, and even cultivated the entire Chinese passenger car parts system, and China's passenger car manufacturing share accounts for 28% of the world's total. So what, is it true that the foreign shares of Chinese car companies are not assets of foreign companies?
No matter how much technology and system China has mastered, there will be no less money belonging to Gemer anyway, isn't that okay?
What? What is China's likely military strength and international strategic position to be enhanced by this? What does that have to do with Gemer. If the Chinese surpass the United States because of this advantage of Gemai, then it is also the United States itself that has a problem, what does it have to do with Gemai?
It's always very easy for a person who has made up his mind to sell his body to find a reason to convince himself.
Douglas accepted the bait thrown by Hu Wenhai without hesitation, and sacrificed all his discipline to the devil.
And in Douglas's suite that night, the lights stayed on all night. What exactly was said on this night, in this room, was destined to be buried behind the fog forever.
......
The CBD area of the city is actually gradually taking shape, and the larger and more specific urban plan for the next ten years has long been placed on the desks of the relevant leaders of the city government.
Douglas's itinerary for the next period of time was arranged quite tightly by the Demon City Mansion. Including visits to the city, visits to other foreign-funded enterprises, discussions with leaders of the city government and relevant domestic industries and ministries, and inviting domestic scientific research institutes in the field of commercial aircraft to come to the city to introduce the development of related technology industries, etc.
The trip is expected to last two weeks, and not only Douglas himself will be treated like this, but in fact, the management and technical staff of the former McDonnell Douglas commercial aircraft department who accompanied him will have their own work to understand.
In addition to expanding the ongoing MD82 assembly cooperation with COMAC, McDonnell Douglas is working on the merger with Grumman while advancing the implementation of the contract of the century with the Chinese side without any impact.
In fact, on the work weight table of GMAC, the level of contract implementation by the Chinese side is even higher than that of the merger of the two companies.
This time, Douglas came to China not only with the flight attendants and flight attendants on the special plane, but also many engineers and technicians from McDonnell Douglas also arrived in the magic capital in the follow-up work.
McDonnell Douglas first conducted a thorough survey of the magic capital to determine how much effort would be needed to build the Asian delivery center.
In these works, Douglas's opinion is clearly decisive. In addition to the data written on paper, there are some invisible things that can only be confirmed by him himself to get accurate answers.
Standing in front of the high-end conference room window of the 150-meter-high New Jin Jiang Hotel, looking out over the entire Magic City District, there are as many as five similar high-rise buildings that are about to be topped out. And the many more CBD buildings that are still under construction are simply innumerable.
As for the Oriental Pearl, which has been built by more than 50%, it is even more eye-catching. The completed part alone far exceeds the height of Jin Jiang Hotel. When it is completed, it will set a new record for a tower in Asia, and it will be more than 100 meters taller than Tokyo Tower.
It is a city full of life, and Douglas can feel that the land has absorbed sufficient nutrients and rested from its long slumber, and is gradually opening its eyes and regaining its vitality.
"We are planning to build the Daluchao Railway Station, which will form a land-sea and land-air combined passenger and cargo transportation and logistics center with Pudong International Airport and Yangshan Port, which are planned to be completed in 1995. In this way, with the advantage of land, sea and land transportation, GMEC's suppliers in the Asia Delivery Center can be distributed all over China without worrying about logistics and traffic restrictions, which is very beneficial for the selection of suppliers and the establishment of a supply system......"
In front of the projector screen in the conference room, Assistant Huang was holding a whip and talking. Judging from the urban planning of the magic city he described, the city will undergo a radical change in the next three to five years.
Investments in infrastructure are growing exponentially. If this plan can be successfully implemented, the city will not only be several times larger than it is now, but its infrastructure will be built at a level that even American cities such as New York and Los Angeles will be unable to match.
"As for the exact location of the Asian delivery center, we recommend choosing it near Pudong Airport. The land around Hongqiao Airport is already relatively tight, and the future development potential of Pudong will be even greater. With the support of GMAC, the design of Pudong Airport can continue to be expanded at this stage to meet the needs of the center. ā
McDonnell Douglas engineers whispered to each other, and they were quite satisfied with the sincerity of the magic capital. Although McDonnell Douglas shares runways and related facilities with civilian airports in other delivery centers, it is still very rare for an airport like Modu Pudong Airport to be built and designed with the needs of aircraft manufacturers in mind.
The delivery center is more than just a runway for test flights, it is often not far from the final assembly plant. There is a need for convenient water and land transportation facilities, such as Boeing's large parts are basically transported by rail, and it is more convenient to import components from internationally by sea. For such a requirement, looking at the urban design of the magic capital, there is only the area from Pudong Airport to Yangshan Port.
Being able to take into account a series of requirements of McDonnell Douglas aircraft from transportation, assembly, production to test flight from the beginning of the construction of Pudong Airport is also a novel experience for McDonnell Douglas engineering designers who always have to succumb to urban planning.
From building a dojo in a snail shell in the past to building a perfect delivery center, these are two completely different work experiences.
For such treatment, these former McDonnell Douglas designers are also very interested. The fact that the Demon Capital can come up with such a condition is actually more attractive to Gemai than what three exemptions and two halves. This also means that the Magic City Mansion has really understood the needs of Gemai in order to make such a targeted design.
Douglas withdrew his gaze from afar, and faced Ms. Linda, the director of the negotiation team, put down the pen in her hand with satisfaction, and nodded gently to him. This means that the experienced industrial designer is obviously very satisfied with the Chinese plan.
"Then it was decided to place the delivery center and the final assembly plant in the area south of Pudong Airport. Douglas simply decided: "The problem now is that we have to determine the overall construction plan, and we must determine what parts can be done from China, and what we need to prepare ourselves." Among them, the key long-span steel structure workshop of the assembly plant, we don't know if the Chinese side can provide it. ā
"There is no problem with this, our Aerospace Vehicle Technology Research Institute has the capacity to build such a plant. The Modu side came forward to answer, but it was not the people from the Modu Mansion, but the new deputy general manager of COMAC sent by the Ministry of Aviation Industry: "Actually, our construction capacity is much higher than what you require, after all, the volume of aircraft and rockets is completely incomparable." ā
Linda and Douglas looked at each other and snorted boredly. Being crushed by the other party in a place where you thought you could bargain is not a good feeling at all.
A deputy general manager from the aerospace system, this is the goal pursued by the previous series of operations of the Ministry of Aeronautics. As Mo Wenxiang said, Gou Guan and the faction behind him are really in the way of too many people.
The commercial aircraft system is controlled by it, and as a result, new technologies that have always been interested in entering this field are blocked. It seems that the interests of the Gou Guan family have been guaranteed, but on the other hand, those who are eager for Xinke to enter the big market and fly with everyone are really dumbfounded.
Xinke has technology in its hands, capital has capital, has a relationship, and has a network, but it has always been unable to really enter the domestic commercial aircraft system. The tentacles stick in a little and are all kinds of small shoes that are worn. In the end, Xifei and MBB could only engage in a backdoor listing, and the strategic intention was realized in a roundabout way.
But on the other hand, China Shipbuilding and the Ministry of Railways, who have already put down their bodies and cooperated with Xinke, who doesn't know that cooperating with Mr. Hu is a serious benefit?
China Shipbuilding has now completely knocked down the South Korean shipbuilding industry, and the South Korean economy has just taken off. The economic situation is compared to the original history, and the small flame of the miracle of the Han River is shaking in the wind and rain.
Relying on the industrial transfer of RB shipbuilding, the shipbuilding industry is now about to become China's industrial business card. The central authorities are quite satisfied with the achievements of the CSSC, and have repeatedly commended and awarded them, and even the navy has benefited a lot by the way.
And the Ministry of Railways, not to mention. Tietong and China Railway Construction Investment, these two enterprises have shown their terrifying strength more and more, not only becoming the cash cow of the Ministry of Railways, but also helping the Ministry of Railways to insert its tentacles into telecommunications, finance, aviation and other fields, and its power has greatly expanded.
Seeing that the Ministry of Communications has a tendency to give the Ministry of Railways a hand, the subsidiary that split out in 1975 will in turn want to acquire the parent company!
Not to mention that Mr. Hu also came up with IGCT and blackmailed the 1163-3 diesel engine from the MTU, so that the 10,000-ton trains of the Ministry of Railways began to relieve the hunger for capacity in the country as early as possible.
Looking at Mr. Hu's investment in aviation development, as well as his generous investment in the turbine yard and Xifei and Chengfei, the aviation system dreams of one day being able to lean on Hu Wenhai's thigh like the Ministry of Railways and China Shipbuilding.
At this time, I still don't know that the mantis arm is used as a car to prevent Mr. Hu from entering the aviation industry, how can Gou Guan and others not be crushed to death?
The deputy general manager of COMAC Aerospace Systems is not only a balance within the aviation engineering department, but also shoulders an important mission.
Mr. Hu, you can't just help the Department of Aeronautics, right? Isn't our Department of Aerospace important?
