"The technology of LNG ships is complicated. Sioux City looked up.

Although it is a question sentence, it also shows his interest. Yan Xuecan was encouraged and said busily: "LNG ships do have many high-tech technologies, but we can adopt the measure of purchasing first and gradually digesting. In fact, South Korea's Hyundai Heavy Industry is also based on imported materials and the production of ships, and I have a data ...... here."

Yan Xuecan opened the notebook he was carrying, looked at it twice, and said: "At present, the main construction countries of LNG ships are France, the United States and Japan. Of the 87 LNG ships under construction, France has 31, the United States has 16, and Japan has 14, accounting for 70% of the total. Hyundai Heavy Industries has only found single-digit orders, and my suggestion is to share the technology with Hyundai Heavy Industries and then compete for cost and price. ”

"South Korea's Hyundai Heavy Industry is not stupid, how can they agree! They give us the technology they have worked so hard to get, and then they still compete with us?" Chen Zunian used the standard name of South Korea, and before the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and South Korea, China did not recognize South Korea as a country.

"It's not a delivery, we also spend money. Our country is blocked by the Western world, and now it is impossible to buy technology. But we also have an advantage, Dahua Industrial's LNG transportation business from the UAE is handed over to Evergreen Group, if Dahua Industrial can produce its own LNG ships, it should not be difficult to get orders from Evergreen Group......" Yan Xuecan breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "South Korea is just the opposite, it is easy for them to get technology, but it is not easy to get funds and orders. I'm afraid it's not so easy to make these technologies work. Before our shipyard is built, we can also hand over orders within one or two years to Hyundai Heavy Industries as bargaining chips, and they will definitely be interested. ”

Su Cheng asked: "What is the level of modern heavy industry's technology?"

"It's weaker than Japan, and it's all about cost advantages. If it weren't for the foreign blockade, we could have bought technology from the United States, France, or Japan. "Yan Xuecan's tendency is still obvious.

Su Cheng asked noncommittally, "So so." If you want to make an LNG ship, Japan is also one of the competitors?"

"That's right. Japan's technological strength is relatively strong, but it lacks cost advantages. Especially in recent years, Japan's labor costs have risen sharply, and in the shipbuilding industry, their profits are getting lower and lower. The internal competition is also very strong. At present, there are eight companies in Japan that can manufacture LNG ships, namely Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Mitsui Shipbuilding, Ishikawashima Harima, Nippon Steel Pipe, Hitachi Shipbuilding, Sumitomo Heavy Machinery, and Sasebo Heavy Industries. They are also technologies imported from abroad, respectively. 8 LNG shipyards, they only got 14 orders, each of them couldn't even grab 2 orders, they must not have enough to eat. If you don't do it for a few years, it is very likely that a certain shipyard will give up, so as long as the timing is right, there is still a good chance that you can get the technology of LNG ships. "Yan Xuecan has really done research, and what he said is the Tao.

Among the people present, about half of them were moved by Yan Xuecan. Establishment of diplomatic relations between China and South Korea. It's a very good time indeed, that's it. It is also mentioned in the background information they obtained.

Sioux fell silent again.

LNG carriers can be said to be the last pearl of the modern shipbuilding industry. The nature of natural gas makes the ship transporting it must maintain a low temperature of minus 163 degrees Celsius during the voyage in order to maintain the liquefied state of natural gas. Generate a lot of profits.

When Sioux City was studying, it was just the time when China was developing LNG ships. Albeit later, but even in 2012. LNG ships are still among the cutting-edge products with high profits and high technology. In the impression of Sioux City, at that time, the country undertook orders for 3 LNG ships, and they were all hyped for a while.

Of course, it is also worth proclaiming. The power of Made in China ensures that once Chinese companies enter a certain industry, they can often wipe out most of the opportunities in an industry.

Once Chinese companies obtain the technology of LNG ships, ship production will become a matter of competing production capacity. In this kind of competition, China has basically never lost.

China, which is enjoying the demographic dividend, is irresistible in the manufacturing industry before the end of the upward period. In 1992, there were still more than 800 million peasants in China who had not been converted into industrial workers, and even in the 21st century, when various localities were propagating the "labor shortage", China was still able to increase tens of millions of new generation industrial workers every year, which is equivalent to the total number of workers in a large European country and the total population of a small country.

Although LNG ships involve all kinds of high-tech, shipbuilding itself is still a labor-intensive industry. Whether it is Dahua Industrial, Dahua Shipbuilding or COSCO Shipping, it is not difficult to train tens of thousands of workers, and it is estimated that it will take several years to train hundreds of thousands of workers. For China, this scale is only the number of strong men in a township, but for a shipyard, it is more than enough.

Su Cheng nodded lightly and said, "The plan of the LNG ship can be considered." ”

Yan Xuecan clenched his fists vigorously.

Next to him, Zhong Zhigen said slowly: "Dahua Industrial only owns 50% of the shares of Dahua Shipbuilding, if you want to make an LNG ship, you must communicate with Haliburton." ”

Su Cheng had already thought about this problem, and immediately said: "The purpose of Haliburton's stake in Dahua Shipbuilding is to obtain a series of technologies such as Dahua Shipbuilding's power positioning, and there is little interest in the shipbuilding industry itself, so we can propose to them to buy back shares and share technology." ”

Dahua Industrial does not yet have the ability to develop offshore drilling platforms completely independently, and it is not necessary for us to retain a dynamic positioning technology. In the next few years, there will definitely be better technologies, and the time period of such patents is often relatively short, often only 20 to 30 years, and technology sharing is beneficial and harmless.

The fourth sister, Xu Feng's eyelids jumped, and said: "To buy back the shares of Dahua Shipbuilding, Haliburton may have to offer hundreds of millions of dollars." ”

"According to the amount of investment that year, 60 million US dollars is about the same, don't let Haliburton know our purpose, try to buy back shares as low-key, and then announce the matter of the LNG ship. If it doesn't work, we'll start anew. Su Cheng called and said, "Li Lin, you contact it first." ”

"Okay. "Li Lin is very energetic. She likes her current job so much, she can not only give full play to her long-sleeved and good dancing characteristics, but also wear beautiful clothes every day to go in and out of beautiful places, meet people in beautiful clothes, and at the same time get excess remuneration and good social status, for the work itself, she is naturally interested.

Sioux City didn't treat buybacks as a nuisance. Haliburton's family is a big business, and many companies are bought and sold every year. Especially for such non-controlling companies, as long as the price is right, they have their own set of decision-making mechanisms, so there is no need to worry.

Turning his head, Su Cheng asked Yan Xuecan, "How to get the LNG technology of Hyundai Heavy Industries, what do you think?......

"Can you add the cooperation plan between Dahua Industrial and Hyundai Heavy Industry to the memorandum of understanding on the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries?" Yan Xuecan said tentatively.

Su Cheng laughed "heh", and shook his head at the same time: "It's good to think, but it's impossible!"

How could such a thing as the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries change because an economic and trade cooperation of several hundred million dollars cannot be negotiated?

Zhang Chao, who also went to Russia, thought of the process of China's purchase of the Su-27 production line, and said in a low voice: "Can we give Hyundai Heavy Industries a big order, and at the same time put forward the request to buy the production line?"

Su Cheng thought for a moment and said, "The cost of the LNG ship is too high, and this can only be used as an alternative." In addition, South Korea may only be able to provide us with drawings and related technology, equipment and raw materials, and we still need to buy them from other countries, so we can't give them all the benefits. ”

Seeing that he had determined the target of the LNG ship, everyone started talking word by word.

San Lang, who was standing behind Su Cheng, listened in surprise to the tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of numbers that came out of their mouths. As early as when Su Cheng returned to his hometown, San Lang came out with him, and he has been working in the peripheral departments of Dahua outside for the past few years. After almost 3 years of training, I returned to the Dahua headquarters, as usual, to be a follower of Sioux City.

This is also an obvious promotion trajectory for Jingshan people. Do well, learn something, there will be the opportunity to go up and down, from the periphery to the headquarters, from the headquarters to the small affiliated enterprises below, do a variety of conservative or pioneering work, do not do well, maybe sink in the peripheral department, only a very small number of people, will stay in the headquarters of Dahua Industry for a long time.

"Weihu, what do you think?" Su Cheng called the name of San Lang Xu Weihu. He himself paid great attention to cultivating his relatives. The combination of the modern enterprise system and the family system can greatly improve the cohesion of the enterprise, which is quite helpful for the entrepreneurial enterprises in the 90s. Chinese businessmen used advanced business methods and family-style business models to sell Chinese goods to the world, and after entering modern times, East Asian countries were the first to continue the enterprise model of Greater China.

was named, San Lang was stunned for a moment, and then smiled for a moment: "I just thought, if only we had this technology, don't ask for help." ”

"Well, if we had this technology ourselves, it would be much simpler......" Su Cheng said, his voice gradually quieter, and soon announced the dissolution of the meeting.

For the current domestic research institutions, the technology of LNG ships is indeed a high-tech technology, and many core contents have not even been exposed to at all, nor are they completely understood.

But Sioux City is different, oil and gas transportation is not only a compulsory course for petroleum majors, but also a main course. Although he has never seen an LNG ship, he can still talk about the high-tech LNG ship in general. Especially the new technology that was used after 2000, the current Hyundai Heavy Industry, it is estimated that he only understands a little concept, not necessarily more than him.

If he engages in technical negotiations, Su Cheng really can't do much, but when it comes to political negotiations, he knows enough about technology.
