"Mr. Timsey, please. Nazarbayev looked at Sioux City with a wry smile. What is it to come to his presidential palace and not look for the president, but for the guests.

This is Haliburton, a world-class oil equipment manufacturer, and Nazarbayev would not be so good at talking to another company, even the world's No. 1 oil producer, Exxon. But without the support of the Soviet oil industry, only Haliburton can fully support Kazakhstan's oil policy, and Nazarbayev has to look down on them.

Timsi, the vice president, is the head of Haliburton's Central Asian region, and to some extent controls the overall progress of Kazakhstan's oil development, and Nazarbayev has more time to beg her and less time to be asked, which is psychologically disadvantaged.

Su Cheng bowed slightly, apologized hypocritically, and sat down on the chair.

Several people were actually a little curious about what Haliburton was in such a hurry.

Without waiting too long, the long-armed and long-legged Timosi walked into Nazarbayev's office.

This is a man who looks like an athlete, with a wide body at the top and a narrow body with a graceful demeanor, stretching out his hand from afar, shaking hands with Nazarbayev, Su Cheng and Ayiman respectively, and said with a smile: "I don't want to disturb His Excellency the President, but I am about to go back to Turkey for a meeting, and I suddenly received news, so I hope to communicate with Chairman Su Cheng in advance." ”

His expression and speech are quite polite, but the mere act of going to the presidential palace to find Sioux City shows that he does not regard the presidents of Central Asian countries as very important.

Su Cheng sighed secretly. Although he is the wholly-owned owner of Dahua Industrial, in terms of international status, he is not even comparable to the vice president of Haliburton.

Nazarbayev couldn't see whether he was happy or unhappy, and said with a smile unchanged: "It doesn't matter, the president's duty is to serve the public, and Kazakhstan is still a country of learning." We need to be more open-minded to our friends around the world. ”

"Your Excellency the President is indeed a banner in Central Asia......" Timosi complimented with two sentences, making the scene look better.

Ayiman stood behind, looking at Timsi with some curiosity and some interest, such a dashing character is not easy to encounter even in France. It's just that the appearance is good, but it is rare to have status and status, and the age is not too big......

After a few words of greeting, Timsey turned to Sioux City. Said: "Congratulations to Su Dong, Dahua Laboratory's research progress in carbon fiber is beyond our expectations, and I am here this time in the hope of extending the partnership between Haliburton and Dahua Industrial to the field of materials." ”

Su Cheng listened inexplicably and looked forward to it. He pressed and said in English: "You can get the news faster than me, Dahua Laboratory's progress in carbon fiber, to be honest, I don't know." ”

"We also learned through the patent office that Dahua Industrial has successfully researched anisotropic asphalt-based carbon fiber. "Timsey doesn't hide the source, a super big company like them, searching for patents all the time. Although you don't want to be a patent robber, you always have to know what new things are emerging in the field.

Su Cheng asked in surprise, "What attracted you?"

"The patent specification has greatly reduced the percentage, which is only 10% of the same type of product. Considering your production volume, the company wants to purchase some or all of it at the right price. "Timsey has a posture of wrapping up.

This is not surprising, as the annual production of carbon fiber is very low worldwide. When it comes to a factory alone, the annual output of 100 tons of carbon fiber belongs to the large factory. The carbon fiber that has just been developed has an annual output of 10 tons is considered good. If it can really reduce the yield by 90%, Timothy can't wait for more than possible.

Carbon fiber is in short supply, and even in the 21st century, the production of carbon fiber does not meet the standards of a large number of industrialization. At the very least, this kind of product that can replace steel is far from reaching the production capacity and success of steel. Therefore, every price reduction of carbon fiber can strengthen its popularity, and its popularity actually depends more on its price.

No matter how bad the carbon fiber is, it also has the index advantage of more than traditional materials, and in terms of demand in the early 90s, even if it is the isotropic asphalt-based carbon fiber made by Wang Yun before, it is also marketable, but it is just a matter of earning more and earning less. The indicators of anisotropic asphalt-based carbon fiber are definitely going to have a jump compared with isotropic asphalt-based carbon fiber, as for how much jump, in fact, it doesn't matter, Timosi values only 10% of the score.

Although this degree of reduction will not cause the life of steel to be removed, there is no problem in removing the life of some precious metals. Judging from Haliburton's annual sales of tens of billions, it is really as much carbon fiber as there is to consume as much carbon fiber.

In the field of petroleum machinery, carbon fiber is a natural warrior, high modulus, high strength and corrosion resistance, each of which is needed for petroleum machinery. Otherwise, carbon fiber is a revolutionary material, and if the success of this thing can be reduced to the extent that oil companies can accept, replacing tens of millions of tons of steel every year, it is equivalent to one industry that can consume 1,000 years of world production.

Su Cheng was happy, slapped his forehead when he listened, and said in his heart: The description on the patent specification must have been made by a guy who had just jumped from a national research institution, and he copied what was given to the domestic patent office.

Before 94 years, Chinese patents were only for China's domestic use, and the Chinese Patent Office was also an administrative review department, and it was quite strict. If you don't write "fill the domestic gap" or "reach the world-class level" in your patent application, you can wait slowly if you want to pass it, and a year and a half of verification is not a long time.

Therefore, unlike foreign patents, early domestic patents, not only to write technical things, but also to boast about their own products, the more ruthless they boast, the greater the chance of passing, even if it is a senior research institution such as the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the so-called experts and professors themselves do not brag, and the following apprentices and grandchildren also have to help brag.

And in foreign countries, "greatly reduced into 10% of the same type of products" such content, it is dispensable, if it is a specialized research institution, maybe also consider boasting about patents to sell at a good price, other laboratories will not write more to find trouble, such a way of writing, is not it clear that the buyer is depressed?

If it's true, it's just that, if it's pure bragging, it becomes an increase in sales pressure.

Su Cheng thought carefully for a while, and said with a smile: "I'm incompetent as the chairman, and the important news in China was heard from another company." Mr. Timothy, please wait a minute, I'll give you a call to the office. ”

Timothy nodded with a smile and picked up his coffee cup.

Su Cheng explained it to Nazarbayev again before going outside the door to make a call. The presidential line in the room is inconvenient for him to use.

It took about 10 minutes for the transatlantic phone to connect to Dahua Laboratory, and during this time, Sioux City slowly calmed down.

"Is Su Dong? Is it Su Dong?" On the other end of the phone, accompanied by a hoarse male voice, Wang Yun's tone could be heard if he listened carefully.

"It's me, I heard you've made a new carbon fiber?" Sioux City's voice was amplified. At this time, the transnational telephone is terrible, at most the level of the field telephone.

"Yes, we are preparing to report to you that our patent has been accepted by the patent office and that factory trials of anisotropic asphalt-based carbon fiber have begun, and it is going very well. At this point, there was a wave of cheers from the earpiece, needless to say, the sound of celebration in the Dahua laboratory.

Su Cheng's stomach was shocked by this sound, and after a while, he smiled: "Congratulations, you have worked hard." ”

Experimenting with materials is boring, just like Edison tested filament materials, and most of the time of the experiment is non-stop testing. Test with iron wire, test with bamboo wire, I heard that I have also used a friend's beard test, each material has to test different treatment methods, carbonization and original bamboo wire are different, and the test results of iron wire with different carbon content will not be the same.

With modern technology, there are many ways to reduce the number of tests, but there will always be an infinite number of tests waiting for researchers.

In the eyes of laymen, it may be a great luck, but in the eyes of insiders, it is just watered with more sweat.

Although Sioux City has not done real research work, he has learned too much about the life of a researcher in the five years since he established Dahua Labs.

With anisotropic carbon fiber in such a short period of time, Wang Yun and his team are afraid that the number of times they can go home is limited. If not, they would have been able to make anisotropic carbon fiber a long time ago, why not take 2 years to make an isotropic asphalt-based carbon fiber.

Without Dayu's general dedication, without Dayu's general passion, without Dayu's self-discipline, it is impossible to complete this kind of research in advance.

Two more words written on the patent application report are nothing.

Su Cheng decided not to mention this matter in front of Wang Yun, and instead asked with a smile: "What are the parameters of the new carbon fiber?"

Speaking of the flesh in his heart, Wang Yun on the other end of the phone suddenly became shy, suppressed his excitement and said, "You definitely can't guess." ”

"So powerful?"

"Of course!" If it weren't for the extreme excitement, Wang Yun, who is calm on weekdays, would definitely say it directly, he didn't mention the parameters just now, just to shout out loudly now, only listening to Wang Yun on the other end of the phone, and said with full of anger: "The indicators of the new material are more than twice that of the same asphalt-based carbon fiber, 15g tensile strength, 150g modulus, absolutely the strongest carbon fiber of the same type, the first in China!"

"Success?"

"It's one-tenth of Nitto-ray. ”

"Is it really only ten percent?" Su Cheng was stunned this time, he thought that the description on the patent application was more or less watery.
