Chapter 186: Proportions

Due to the fact that the Chinese technicians of the MPC75, which mainly flew west, insisted on using the turbine slurry fan engine, the MPC75 passenger aircraft could not be locked in design, and the follow-up negotiations between China and Germany could not be carried out, and core issues such as the specific division of labor between the two sides could not continue.
After Liang Yuan took over the project, he directly decided to use a turbofan engine, which made the project progress of the MPC75 accelerate sharply.
According to the analysis of the MPC75 project, the entire passenger aircraft manufacturing can be divided into five parts, airframe manufacturing, avionics system, electromechanical system, aviation motor, and aviation standard parts.
In terms of the level of the aviation industry of the Federal Republic of Germany, similar to the manufacture of airframes, aviation standard parts and electromechanical systems are not difficult, but the avionics system and aviation motor, the two core systems of the aircraft, are still very difficult for the aviation industry of the Federal Republic of Germany.
The aviation motor and avionics system are close to 5o% of the total value of aircraft manufacturing, which also happens to be the strengths of Britain and France
In order to make up for the shortcomings of the German aviation industry, the Federal Government of the Federal Republic of Germany has made great efforts, and BMW and Rolls-Royce have jointly produced the next generation of RB7OO series aviation motors, which is an effort of the Federal Republic of Germany in aviation power.
When the Republic wavered on the MPC75 project, the Federal Republic of Germany adopted the VF614 regional airliner jointly developed by Germany and the Netherlands as a verification aircraft for the flight control system. The telex technology that is partially intended for use on the MPC75 has been verified.
However, as the process of the MPC75 project has been greatly accelerated, the cooperation between the two sides has become deeper and deeper, and the conflict between China and Germany has also increased day by day.
When talking about the proportion of work between the two sides in the future, the Federal Republic of Germany handed over to the Republic the manufacture of large parts such as the metal frame of the middle fuselage, rear fuselage and wing of the passenger aircraft, and gave a small number of aviation standard parts such as wires and cables, and in general, the workload of the delivery to the Republic accounted for about 25% of the total work volume of the passenger aircraft.
This ratio is still acceptable in the view of MPC75 technicians from Xifei, including Liu Wenyue, who think that the Germans are not bad, and they are working hard to talk about some mechanical and electrical equipment. It is almost enough to make the total engineering quantity more than 3o%. It's a pity that everyone underestimated Liang Yuan's ambitions.
Liang Yuan pushed the Germans back on the spot, but fortunately, Liu Wenyue had already explained Liang Yuan's identity to the Germans these days, and Edmiston, who was in charge of negotiations at MBB, knew that the young man who was in charge of translating German was a member of the family of the controlling party of the Civil Aviation Import and Export Company. I thought that Liang Yuan had already had a plan with Liu Wenyue and others on the proportion of the division of labor between the two sides.
"According to the principle of reciprocity of pay and return. In the case that we pay the same as MBB. We must be rewarded with the same amount as MBB. Liang Yuan said dryly.
"No, no, the ability should also be added to the proportion of effort and return. IMHO, the remaining work on the MPC75 project is simply not up to the task for the current industrial base of China. Edmiston inherited the usual straightforwardness or rigidity of the Germans, and mercilessly exposed the state of the republic's domestic industry.
"In 1981, Volkswagen of the Federal Republic of Germany visited Wusong, and I remember that Volkswagen experts at that time told the media that the technical ability of Wusong Automobile Factory was only comparable to that of Germany before the start of World War II, and it would take at least 3o years to build a Santana car. Liang Yuan glanced at Edmiston playfully.
"By the end of last year, Volkswagen's localization rate in China had exceeded 6o%, and this Qiē only took three years. ”
At this time, Liang Yuan naturally had to forget that the biggest technical improvement made by the Wusong public to ordinary Santana was the rotten thing of replacing the original analog radio with a seagull digital radio.
"And Mr. Edmiston forgets the most important point, that according to the budget, an MPC751OO base airliner will cost no more than $160,000, and I am sure that only a 5o% proportion of parts processed in the Republic will be able to achieve the target described in the plan. ”
In the mid-nineties and early nineties, what can be bought for $160O, at the end of '89, the Brazilian aircraft industry company will build a cornerstone of its regional airliner empire ERJ145 series regional jet airliner, its cheapest ERJ airliner is priced at $1600,000, and the maximum number of passengers in the ERJ series is only 5O.
Therefore, Liang Yuan did not believe that the price of the MPC751OO proposed by the Federal Republic of Germany was about 160,000 US dollars, unless all the parts were made by the Republic, and if it was produced in the Federal Republic of Germany, this price would not even recover the cost, and the Germans would definitely lose the last pair of bottoms.
In the future, the Boeing 7376OO, which is only 5 passengers higher than the MPC752OO passenger plane, will have a catalogue price of 590,000 US dollars, and according to the Germans' estimates, the catalogue price of its MPC752OO passenger aircraft will be controlled at 210,000 US dollars, which is impossible to look at.
There are only two reasons why the Germans set the price of the MPC75 so low, one is that the Federal German government is ruthless and gives MBB a government loss subsidy, and the other is that the Germans have little experience in driving the whole machine and misestimate the budget of the entire project.
But whatever the reason, Liang Yuan's cost issue is the core key, and Edmiston dares to doubt the industrial capacity of the Republic, but he will never question the low cost of the Republic.
"Do you have any good ideas?" Edmiston said as he took a step back and looked at Liu Wenyue.
Liang Yuan said these words quickly and urgently, Liu Wenyue listened a little stumbling, watching Edmiston ask Liu Wenyue's opinion, Liang Yuan pretended to be a translator again, and said in detail what he had just said to Edmiston.
Liu Wenyue thought for a moment, took the note and wrote a few lines and handed it to Liang Yuan. (To be continued......)
