Li Hucheng and Yu Danping stood on the roof of the Hucheng Building, looking at Guanshan in the dark night.

It was already dark, and there were bright lights everywhere you looked.

Vehicles are constantly moving, and shadowy figures can be seen in the lights.

"When I came here, Guanshan was still a rural village, and less than ten years later, it was already a city. ”

Thinking of the great changes in Guanshan over the years, Yu Danping couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.

"It's just beginning to take shape, although it has surpassed the ancient city, but it is still a little worse than the Green River. At least it has to be the size of the Green River to be a real city. ”

Li Hucheng said.

"It's not easy to catch up with the Green River, and I think the development of Guanshan has hit a bottleneck. Since last year, your pace of development has slowed down. ”

"I can't say that, the annual GDP growth is about 20%, this speed is fast enough, looking at the whole province, except for Guanshan, where is there such a speed. ”

"Compared with other places, this speed is of course very fast, but compared with Guan Shan himself, the speed is lower than in previous years. I think the year before last was the fastest, at 27%. ”

"Extra-high-speed growth is not normal, and the growth rate of about 15% is normal. Even a 10% growth rate is perfectly acceptable. ”

"In the past, the growth rate was fast because of the small base. If you go to a large company, your GDP will increase a lot. Now Guanshan has a large volume and a large base, and every percentage point increase is needed. ”

"This year, the shield machine can produce 120 units, with an output value of 6 billion, and it can only increase by a little more than 2% when it is spread over GDP. If you put this figure in previous years, it would be more than 10%. ”

"Since the shield machine is so profitable, why not produce more?"

Li Hucheng's eyes dimmed, and his voice became low.

"It's not that I don't want to produce more, it's that there aren't enough parts. Foreign countries are not allowed to export so much, and the quota given to us every year is not enough. To put it bluntly, it's still stuck in our necks on key components. ”

"What the hell is it?"

"Main bearings. ”

The main bearing of the shield machine is the core, the most expensive and the most important component of the shield machine, which can be said to be the heart of the shield machine.

It carries the main load during the operation of the shield machine and is the most important component of the cutterhead drive system.

Because the TBM encounters a variety of complex formations during the tunneling process, the main bearings need to be able to withstand the huge loads and strong temperature rises at high speeds.

If the main bearing fails, it is very difficult to repair or replace it.

Because it is underground, if it is to be repaired and replaced, the entire shield machine needs to be excavated and put on the ground.

This will undoubtedly consume a lot of time and manpower and material resources. Even then, repairs are not always successful. Sometimes, the entire EPB has to be scrapped.

Li Hucheng's shield machine is a full set of technology purchased from Bill. But some parts are not produced by Bill Company. The main bearings were purchased from other companies.

Because the other party intends to control the price, it controls the production volume. Even if you have money, I don't sell you much.

"Can't you produce it domestically?"

"No, one is not good in design, the second is not good in materials, and the third is not in processing capacity. This is not bad for me, because Bill originally had a contract with the manufacturer of the main bearing, and I bought Bill as a wholly owned company, inherited this contract, and they sold it to me. ”

"Other domestic manufacturers and some foreign manufacturers, if they want to buy them, they don't sell. Other manufacturers have adopted this strategy, controlling output, maintaining high prices, and monopolizing the market. ”

"To join the WTO, the economy will inevitably develop in the future, the speed and scale of domestic construction will also grow rapidly, and the demand for shield machines will be increasing. ”

"If the main components are not solved, they will not be able to meet the domestic market demand in the future, and foreign products may take advantage of it. Over time, it can squeeze your market share. You'll have to figure out how to solve this problem. ”

"Asking people to get stuck in their necks is not a long-term solution after all. In the unlikely event that the international situation changes, or if relations between the two countries deteriorate, the other side may run out of stock. The fundamental way is to take the road of localization. ”

"In the past few years, we have also been trying to find a way to solve this problem. At present, we are cooperating with several units to tackle key problems. Hopefully, we will see results in a few years. ”

"I'm sure you'll have a way around it. If Li Hucheng has no way, I'm afraid others will have no way. ”

"I hope so. ”

"This ....... ”

Yu Danping seemed to want to say something, but he stopped talking.

"Say whatever you want, don't ramble. ”

"Still thinking about Guanshan becoming independent and becoming Guanshan City?"

When Yu Danping was still the head of the township, he once wanted to work together with Li Hucheng to turn Guanshan into a city.

At present, Guanshan has surpassed the ancient city and county in terms of urban size, population, infrastructure, economy, etc.

Now, Gucheng is barely the second largest town in Gucheng County, and its economic power is only slightly stronger than that of the third-place Sainiu.

In fact, the center of the ancient city is already in Guanshan. Just because the county government and various organs are in the ancient town, it is the nominal ancient city and county seat.

"yes, but I'm not in a hurry. Wait until the scale and strength reach the level of the Green River. ”

"As long as I am the magistrate of Gucheng County for one day, you Guanshan will not want to go out independently. ”

"I'm afraid this matter is not for you and me to decide. When that day really comes, the ancient city will have to recognize it if it is unwilling. In fact, if you don't want to let Guanshang go out, it is also a solution to move the county government to Guanshan and change it to Guanshan county-level city in the future. ”

"Tiger City, you're thinking too simply. The relocation of the county government is tantamount to a tremendous change in the administration of the office, which involves the vital interests of many people and units. Housing, treatment, transportation, work, etc., will undergo many changes, and will inevitably encounter strong resistance. Even superiors can't ignore this impact. ”

"I admit that there will be a lot of problems and there will be strong resistance. But that doesn't change the fact that Guanshan is pulling the ancient town farther and farther away. ”

"The strength of the ancient city in all aspects is not as good as Guanshan, and the contribution it has made is far inferior to Guanshan. Over the years, Guan Shan has been transfusing blood to the ancient city. ”

"If there was no support from Guan Shan, the ancient city would not have lived so comfortably over the years. Including the people in the county government and the ancient town, everyone got a lot of benefits from Guan Shan. ”

However, the development of Guanshan is restricted by many aspects of the ancient city. Guanshan is just a town, and everything has to be approved by the ancient city before it can be done. ”

"Not only is it inefficient, but Guan Shan's authority is also very low. More things, less power. The contribution is large, and the status is low. The widening of a street has to be approved by the ancient city. Do you think that makes sense?"

"You can't blame the ancient city for this, that's how the policy is arranged. ”

The two didn't talk about anything, and Li Hucheng's phone rang.

"Go back, He Xiao came to me to study the matter of the main bearing. ”

"Go ahead, I'll take another look here. You don't have to worry about me, I'll go back by myself in a while. ”

"Okay. ”

Watching Li Hucheng leave, Yu Danping shook his head,

Alas, they all thought that Hucheng was worth hundreds of millions and was majestic, and how many people knew about the hard work he had paid behind him.
