Chapter 579: The East-West Dispute

Gong Guozheng's words made the conference room suddenly quiet. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The question of finances is the crux of all issues, but the vast majority of people do not bring it up at this time.

According to the normal routine, of course, Xifei first took the leading power of the project in his hands, and then invested some funds. When there are phased benefits, you can reach out to the state and ask for money.

The project has been carried out for a period of time, and it makes sense to ask for money. With so much money already invested, the country can't just watch such an important project run aground, right?

If at the beginning of the project, the financial problems faced are put on the table. When the leader above saw it, he might even vomit out the bile.

Therefore, according to the "routine" of the past, the financial difficulties must not be emphasized at the beginning of the project. Instead, you should report less of the budget, and it looks like you can spend a small amount of money and do a lot of things.

Wait until the project progresses to the point where it is impossible to give up, or there are some achievements, so that you can strive for more funds with problems such as "accidents" and "insufficient budget".

Three or five times like this, the resources invested in it are superimposed. It's like a girl in love, and she began to be fooled by the young man's sweet words, such as "I'm willing to give is my business, whether you love me or not is your business", "You can not love me, but I must be good to you", "As long as you think I'm annoyed one day, I'll disappear immediately!", these words came out, and the girl was relieved and carefully invested in a little emotion.

When this little emotion is touched again and again, a huge emotional investment is accumulated. When the relationship was deep, he found that Gao Fushuai was actually just a suitable man, so he could only pinch his nose and admit it.

And as long as there are so many phased investments, seeing that so many resources have been accumulated, it is impossible for the above to cut the project because of financial problems, and that is when the real lion opens his mouth.

At the beginning, the funds were put on the table, what if the leaders above were frightened?

This Gong Guozheng is really too uninteresting.

Not only the other leaders of Xifei, but even Chang Chang, the manager of the 603 Institute, couldn't help frowning.

However, just such a level of pressure cannot make Gong Guozheng bow his head. He seemed to turn a blind eye to the eyes of the other people around him, and then said: "The Yunqi 200A project has just begun to fly west, if we want to invest more resources in the Panda localization project, what should we do with the dispute between the cadres and the north and the south that the Ministry of Aviation Industry already has? Once the superior leaders think that we are playing tricks and unreliable on the panda localization project, will it affect the landing of the Yunqi passenger transport model? Will it add more risks to the already dangerous cadre and branch disputes? As a result, the strategic opportunity for us to enter the passenger aircraft market has been delayed?"

Compared with the J-7, which is not going well, the main business of Xifei has never been a fighter. Compared with short and compact fighter jets, the main business of Xifei is more concentrated on large aircraft. Like Bang 6 and Yun 7, this is Xifei's fist product.

As the chief designer of the Yunqi passenger model, Gong Guozheng has sufficient reasons and positions to stand up for the interests of the Yunqi 200A, which is a responsibility that a qualified leader and organizer must shoulder.

At this time, the development of passenger aviation in China is facing a brutal route struggle, and the faction led by Shangfei believes that the market can be exchanged for technology. McDonnell Douglas' MD-82 assembly line was introduced, hoping to achieve China's ability to manufacture its own mainline airliners by assembling the MD-82. But the problem is that the flight seriously underestimates the difficulty of building passenger aircraft, and it is not only the assembly link that will become an obstacle.

In fact, for China's passenger aircraft manufacturing industry, almost all links are facing huge obstacles.

Starting with the Y-7 200A flying west, the western flight faction in the north advocates that it should run in small steps, first develop regional airliners to stabilize the low-end market, and then try to manufacture trunk airliners after surviving.

Looking at the whole of China, it seems that there are only two companies that actually have the ability to manufacture large aircraft. One is the flying of the magic capital, and the other is the flying west of Xi'an.

As a result, a series of route struggles were derived from the development route of large aircraft.

The dispute between cadres and branches, the dispute between the east and the west, and the dispute between cooperation and independence also involve many foreign enterprises. For example, ATFA with McDonnell Douglas, UHB with Boeing, MPC-75 program with West German MBB, and later AE100 and XAC's self-developed NRJ program. These Chinese airliner development plans in the context of competition between Shanghai and West have almost all failed in the end.

Historically, the manufacturing techniques for regional airliners have not been the same as the requirements for mainline airliners. Even the United States has only one Boeing, and Europe has only one Airbus. Expecting China's aviation manufacturing industry, which is not technologically advanced, capital is underdeveloped, and the market is not sufficient, to impact the field of large aircraft, it has even divided two opponents who dismantle each other, and the result is naturally that the two monks picked up water and ate it. But the problem is that among these two monks, those who have money have no skills, and those who have skills have no money. Xifei is not an opponent of Shangfei in terms of resources and upper-level relations, so what's the use of technology alone?

In order to reconcile the technical route of whether ARJ adopts MD82 and Boeing 737, AVIC later set up a FAI Modu Design Institute, and finally the ACAC Engineering Department and FAI caused serious confrontation, and the ARJ project has a lot of good things......

Shangfei, which has weak technology, wants to make ARJ the only MD-82 route it has ever done, but Xifei has cultivated stronger technical strength in the international foundry, so he wants to make ARJ into a wing crane layout like Boeing 737. This conflict was reflected in the project, where ARJ's requirements phase was so chaotic that it took three to six times longer to work on a joint definition with the supplier, and finally ACAC forcibly terminated the phase and put the issue on hold.

Of course, these confusions and mistakes in the course of the ARJ project were not without gain. Truly completing the entire manufacturing process of a civil airliner is obviously a powerful hammer forging for the team of commercial aircraft.

When it came time to promote the C919 project, everyone thought that COMAC would definitely have to produce all kinds of moths. But in fact, C919 proves that China's civil aviation passenger aircraft manufacturing industry has quietly completed a life and death transformation, and surpassed ARJ to enter the market first.

Therefore, instead of emphasizing something, internal and external disputes, and the battle between cadres and branches, no matter how hard the mouth cannonball is, it is better to really experience it.

From the eighties and nineties to the birth of the ARJ, China's plans to attack the manufacturing capacity of passenger aircraft several times were almost like this kind of thing and internal and external confrontations. Only after COMAC condensed all its resources did it really walk on the right path.

Facts have proved that the construction of large aircraft can only maintain one enterprise with the strength of Europe and the United States. It is simply an evil path for China to engage two rivals who fight each other.

One of the most important lessons learned from the ARJ program is that no program can be over-the-top – an assignment that has been repeatedly turned in for many times in other fields.

Later, AVIC sent a review team, and the deputy general manager of AVIC personally shot the layout of FAI's wing crane, and did the work of Xifei, and invited the main technical force of Xifei to come in, which can be regarded as the completion of the JDP stage.

After these preliminary preparations and design work were completed, it took only three years for ARJ to go from drawing to first flight, which is actually possible.

Obviously, compared with the difficulty of the project, straightening out the system has become a more difficult task.

Gong Guozheng dared to "not open which pot to mention", that is also because he stands under the banner of "political correctness". The Panda localization project is certainly important, but don't forget that Xifei's main business is, after all, the manufacture of large aircraft.

It affected the Yun-7 200A, or as a result, Xifei fell into disadvantage in the East-West dispute, which is absolutely unacceptable to Xifei.

As the chief designer of Yunqi 200A, Gong Guozheng stood up with confidence.

The leaders and engineers of the Xifei 603 Institute, look at me, I look at you, and no one is speechless about this.

There is absolutely no business in the world that has not done a good job and has taken great risks to invest in new products. If any company wants to open up new product areas, it must first have a solid foundation.

Under the condition that the basic plate of Xifei is not stable, rashly entering the field of difficult fighter aircraft manufacturing is indeed a very irrational behavior for Xifei.

Tu Jida and Wu Daguan glanced at each other, smiled helplessly at each other and shook their heads.

The reason why the panda localization project is to fly west naturally also has their considerations.

Looking at China, the only aviation companies that can support the Panda fighter are Sheng Fei and Cheng Fei, plus a Xifei that has been trained by the Jian-7 team.

Chengfei is definitely not good, it needs to concentrate resources on the No. 10 project, and there are not so many resources to invest in a new third-generation aircraft production line.

And Sheng Fei, the leaders of Tu Jida and the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense also intended to put the project in Sheng Fei. But this proposal was very strongly rejected by Hu Wenhai.

He not only supported taking the Jian-8 from Sheng Fei, but also unanimously opposed the turbojet 13 engine that the Dawn Factory wanted to use.

Hu Wenhai's thinking is very simple, he does not intend to get involved in Sheng Fei's intricate internal relationships. Whether an enterprise or a team lives or dies depends on the path it chooses.

He will give Sheng Fei a chance to get the localization project of the Su-27. But only the localization of Su 27 has become a rebirth of Nirvana, and it is a big deal to lose and put the treasure on Cheng Fei.

Supposedly, the opposition of the new department is meaningless within the system, but that is only theoretical. In fact, the heavy industrial power import and export company that Xinke Group now controls is one of the few channels that can be realized and earn US dollars by aviation development enterprises, as long as Hu Wenhai does not nod, the business subcontracted by Rolls-Royce will not fall on the head of Liming Factory.

In addition, as a large financier of investment in the aviation industry, the Ministry of Aviation Industry, the Air Force and the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense also have no shortage of spokespersons for Xinke.

As a result, the two traditional fighter manufacturers will not be able to get this project, and the burden of Panda localization will naturally only fall on the head of Xifei.
