Chapter 811: Technocracy VS Business
How could Lin Hongzhi not be angry, how could he not be angry.
Now it is clear that the core technology of the large aircraft project is in the hands of Westerners, and if it is not transformed, then the pigtails of COMAC are in the hands of Westerners.
Now the shareholders of the group have come forward to negotiate with CMF and agree to continue selling the engines of the COMAC Group.
This is clearly to see that Pangu Technology borrowed money from COMAC to keep COMAC alive, and seeing that it could not assist its allies in acquiring COMAC and was unwilling to lose Xia Guo's customers, it continued to supply.
Continued supply means that COMAC will continue to rely on core products such as Western engines.
One day in the future, if the relationship between the two sides is stalemate again, and the West cuts off the supply of core components again, will there be a group like Pangu Technology that can lend a helping hand to COMAC?
Lin Hongzhi didn't dare to guarantee it, he was very worried about the future of COMAC. can even be sure that if something similar happens again, COMAC will definitely be brain dead in an instant.
Lin Hongzhi, the general manager of COMAC and one of the directors of aerospace technology, insists on his opinion.
"I suggest abandoning the manufacturing and R&D plans for large aircraft, because according to the information given to us by Pangu Technology, the days of passenger aircraft are not long, and the aviation industry will definitely undergo earth-shaking changes in the future. ”
Lin Hongzhi calmed down and said: "Director Hu, Mr. Lin Lilin of Pangu Technology gave me a sentence from Xiao Ming, and now I will also give you a sentence." ”
"Technology must have taken time to age, not suddenly. The West has been developing engine technology for hundreds of years, and even if we refuel to catch up, it will take decades. It will take us a few decades before we will be able to reach the current level of the West, and what will the level of the West be like in a few decades? Since we cannot catch up, then we should give up this kind of attachment and change the way to dislocate the competition. ”
Lin Hongzhi said: "Pangu Technology has given us such a plan, and we can participate in the real future of aerospace. Now CFM is indeed willing to sell engines to us, but what about the future? The most important part of a large aircraft is the engine, and if the engine technology is not in our hands, the soul of a large aircraft must not be in our hands. ”
Lin Hongzhi still hopes that a unity can be formed within the group.
Lin Hongzhi was born in aviation technology, he pursues a kind of great ambition and great ideals, and does things more about a feeling, the feeling of a great power with the rise of Xia Guo Aviation.
In order to achieve this goal, cooperation with Pangu Technology is the best choice.
It's a pity that Lin Zhihong completely underestimated the power of capital.
Capital doesn't care what is flying in the sky in 10 years, 20 or even 100 years, or which country's product it is, but it cares more about the financial statements at the end of this year, how much profit this year will be, and how much dividends shareholders can distribute.
Hu Junyi, who had just been scolded by Lin Hongzhi, was very angry now, but he was unwilling to quarrel with Lin Hongzhi, and the way adults solve problems is never to quarrel.
Hu Junyi said: "We'll see you on the board. ”
The dispute between Lin Hongzhi and Hu Junyi is actually the dispute between the development route of COMAC.
COMAC does not have a God perspective, and they have great doubts about cooperating with Pangu Technology.
This confusion comes from the current situation of Xiaomi, Warwick and other companies that cooperate with Pangu Technology.
Xiao Mi and Warwick are not stupid, and they also know the truth of making money in a low-key manner.
Xiaomi's participation in the ecological customization of the Pangu system, and Huawei's participation in the manufacturing and research and development of quantum communication equipment, these are not products sold in stores, so the influence of the two companies in the hearts of the people has decreased in recent years.
But this does not prevent the two companies from making money silently. The profits of Xiaomi and Warwick have doubled compared to five years ago.
The shareholders of COMAC Financial Investment Company certainly did not see this.
There is a saying in the technology industry that if Pangu Technology has its eye on any industry, then all companies in this industry will be doomed.
Now that Pangu Technology has taken a fancy to the aerospace industry, COMAC will have to finish. Rongtou Group feels that if it cooperates with Pangu Technology, it will be doomed.
So what to do? Find a seemingly strong partner with a thigh on your shoulder, hoping to prevent Pangu Technology from entering the industry.
Rongtou Group has no problem finding anyone, but it is clear that he has found the wrong arm and found the Western aircraft engine manufacturer and the capital behind it.
As for whether the Rongtou Group has carried out a certain exchange of interests with these capitals, outsiders do not know.
On Monday morning, Yanjing was cold and steep, and the boardroom of COMAC Group headquarters was also chilly.
This day was the moment that decided the fate of COMAC.
The board of directors has only one topic on the agenda, what is the future of the company after the debt is paid off.
It is certain that the C930 project will be abolished, there must be no engine, and there is no point in redeveloping it except burning money.
But whether other aircraft projects will be terminated, and whether the drawings given by Pangu Technology will be developed, which will confuse everyone, will be the focus of the meeting.
Ten years ago, when COMAC raised funds and expanded its shares, most of the seats on the board of directors were already occupied by the financial investment group.
After several hours of debate, even the technical faction represented by Lin Hongzhi argued with reason, but finally fell behind.
The drawings of Pangu Technology were scrapped, and the system of large aircraft manufacturing and R&D was maintained.
The moment the decision was made, Lin Hongzhi's whole person collapsed.
Unable to return to the sky, maybe that's how it feels.
Lin Hongzhi has never been able to understand why COMAC has to follow the old road of the West, this road has been successfully walked by others, but will he be able to succeed?
Looking at the technical colleagues around him, Lin Hongzhi knew that it was too late.
"The board of directors announced that Lin Hongzhi will continue to serve as the general manager of COMAC......"
Rong put Lin Hongzhi on the horse and did not let Lin Hongzhi pack up his things and get out, this is not because Rong Investment is very happy to see Lin Hongzhi, but in the development of the group, there is still a need for people who understand technology.
Everyone applauded and congratulated Lin Hongzhi.
"Lao Lin, the board of directors still trusts you, come on. ”
"Come on, Lao Lin!"
Everyone's encouragement to Lin Hongzhi now sounds so harsh.
Lin Hongzhi only felt that his head was buzzing and blank.
Lin Hongzhi stood up and said, "I am now formally submitting my resignation to the board of directors. We would like to thank the Board of Directors and COMAC for their continued trust in us. Thank you!
Lin Hongzhi bowed to everyone, this is where he has struggled for decades, and he didn't expect that the meeting would end in this way, and everything should be over.
