Chapter 131: Serious Disagreements (Second Update)

Their message is clear: collaborative manufacturing, not full technology transfer. The Red Star Plant wanted to get a full set of technologies, including the core and key technologies of this AC electric locomotive.

There is a big difference between cooperative manufacturing and cooperative R&D, the former is just manufacturing, and does not involve R&D. The latter starts from R&D, and carries out technical cooperation together, design and R&D, process design, and then guidance manufacturing, etc., which will be a whole process.

These representatives of Siemens held a short meeting at the Qingjiang Hotel to basically fix the tone, if the leaders of the Red Star Factory knew, it is estimated that they would be anxious, not like this, the Red Star Factory wants a complete set of technology.

Only two days later, at the request of the Red Star Factory, another round of negotiations began, which was held at the Qingjiang Hotel.

In order to cooperate with this business negotiation, the hotel has made full preparations, and has also prepared a business conference room with the best environment, and even the Qingjiang Foreign Affairs Bureau has comrades to participate, and the scale is large.

Because of the hope that he would win, Chang Jinlin changed his normal situation and stood in front of the stage from behind the scenes, and he personally represented the Red Star Factory, with Xie Zhenhua and other leaders, as well as the personnel of the relevant departments of the Red Star Factory, to form a very large negotiation team of 20 or 30 people.

Early in the morning, several cars and a minibus set off from the Red Star Factory, arrived at the Qingjiang Hotel, after the convoy stopped at the door of the hotel, no one else opened the door, Chang Jinlin personally pushed the door and got off, and entered the hotel in a hurry, followed by a large group of people.

In the business conference room, several representatives of Siemens AG were already there, and another round of talks between the two sides was about to begin.

At the beginning, it was relatively relaxed, mainly some unimportant topics, such as Chang Jinlin, on behalf of the Red Star Factory, who asked the people of Siemens with concern, that meals can be used to, sleep well, and this kind of topic, which is not painful.

But this situation did not last long, and after about ten minutes, as the topic turned on the right track, the situation in the entire conference room gradually became intense.

It's just a war of words, and after more than an hour, it even reaches the point of white heat.

The differences between the two sides are very large, and the focus is on the insistence of the Red Star Plant on the introduction of a full set of technologies, including the core and key technologies of this AC electric locomotive.

Siemens insisted on only cooperating with the Red Star Factory for production and manufacturing, and imitated an AC electric locomotive that was basically the same on the basis of their electric locomotive.

The Red Star plant is responsible for the specific production and manufacturing, and Siemens is responsible for the process technical guidance, including the supply of some key and core components.

Doesn't this mean that the Red Star Factory does not even have to manufacture the core and key components of this electric locomotive by itself, and is directly supplied by Siemens, and the Red Star Factory only needs to build a car shell.

Of course not!

Chang Jinlin strived, and even made it clear that the cost could be increased by another 100 million on the previous basis. There's no way!

If you don't add money, this matter is estimated to be yellow, the previous offer, Siemens only agreed to cooperate in manufacturing, only with more money, people may consider a full set of technology transfer.

Chang Jinlin promised to add another 100 million funds, and the people from Siemens Company whispered a few words in German, anyway, no one in the Red Star Factory could understand.

It can be seen from the expressions of people's conversations that it is estimated that it is still not good. Sure enough, a senior executive of Siemens directly shook his head and made it clear in English, no, I still hope that it is just a cooperative production and manufacturing, and they are responsible for technical guidance, and the Red Star Plant pays for the technical guidance, and they promise to help the Red Star Plant manufacture a qualified AC electric locomotive.

That's not going to work!

Didn't master the key and core technology, just a lot of process and technical information, just guide how to produce and manufacture this electric locomotive, did not understand it, in case one day people stuck neck, stop the supply of key and core components, what to do.

No, absolutely not!

Chang Jinlin did not give in at all, insisted on the introduction of a full set of technologies, and said vaguely that the price can be negotiated again, and it is okay to add a little more money.

Chang Jinlin didn't dare to promise how many more billions, just opened his mouth to increase 100 million, that was no way, in fact, the Red Star Factory had already counted all the money that could be taken out, including the 200 million that he got from selling the land to Tang Fei.

Representatives of Siemens also did not mean to give in, but still stuck to their bottom line and only carried out cooperative manufacturing, without considering the transfer of the full set of technologies.

The meeting was arduous and intense, with only one working meal from morning to afternoon, and even noon, without a lunch break, and after the meal he returned to the negotiating table.

It's a pity that the result is similar to the previous negotiations, there are still the same differences, even if Chang Jinlin promised to add more money, the people from Siemens only thought about it, and after a whispered exchange, they finally rejected Chang Jinlin.

It's harder!

As the sun set, half of the sky was red, and it seemed that it was about to be evening, but there was still no result, and the people from Siemens suggested that they should rest for a few days before talking, and they also needed to return to China to report the situation of these rounds of negotiations to their top management.

Chang Jinlin nodded helplessly, he could only comfort himself, he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry, in fact, his heart was very anxious.

However, we can't force people to stay in Qingjiang City all the time and keep talking with them, so we can only promise that after a few days, calm down for a while, and then the two sides will return to the negotiating table.

After the meeting, Ben came to dinner time, and the Red Star Factory, as the landlord, also prepared a sumptuous dinner, but Chang Jinlin had no appetite at all, and Jiao Zhenhua accompanied the guests, but he returned to the Red Star Factory in a very bad mood, and he didn't even want to eat dinner.

As soon as I returned to the Red Star Factory and entered my office, the door was closed with a "bang", and then the sound of smashing cups and tantrums was faintly heard inside.

His secretary was so frightened that he didn't dare to come out, and hurriedly walked away gently, also in the same low mood, thinking in his heart, without his own technical advantages, this kind of thing of asking for others is really aggrieved.

In his office, Xie Zhenhua sat weakly in his wide boss chair, thinking to himself, could it be that I have too much appetite?

No, no, if we don't introduce their full set of technology, even if our engineers guide us in manufacturing, it will be many years before we can independently develop our own electric locomotives.

The Shaoshan series of Hongxing Factory is a DC electric locomotive, and the other is an AC electric locomotive, there is a generation gap between the two.

We are too backward, in the electric locomotive, we are actually a whole generation behind others, as the main manufacturer of domestic electric locomotives, I am deeply ashamed. Xie Zhenhua thought so in his heart.

………

The Red Star Factory is busy negotiating with Siemens and wants to introduce a full set of other people's technology. Tang Fei is also very busy, busy with his big construction.

Wearing a hard hat and work clothes, Tang Fei went to the construction site by himself again and personally checked the progress of the construction of his two large factories.

The steel frame has been completed, and according to this progress, it will not be long before the main body of the two buildings will be completed, followed by the installation of water and electricity, the process layout of the equipment, and so on.

Well, soon, when this place is completed, we will also replace the shotgun with the cannon, at least the area of the factory will be more than doubled. And it is also a new factory with high standards.

The two factories cost nearly 100 million yuan, and each of them has an area of five or six thousand square meters. In the mid-to-late nineties, 100 million was still worth a lot.

Now Tang Fei has money in his hands and has plenty of funds, he could have invested more money and built more factories, but he also knows the disadvantages of developing too fast.

In the rhythm of development or grasp the following, first build two large factories, recruit a group of employees, and so these two plants are completed and put into use, after the training of newly recruited employees, it is not too late to build a new plant.

Here is a flat river, the terrain is open and flat, almost no need to level the land, save a lot of trouble, the speed of building a plant is also relatively fast, and it is completely possible to build a new plant later.

The construction of the factory is already faster, and it may take several months to build a residential building with more than 10 or even 20 floors, including the interior and exterior decoration, water and electricity installation, etc.

The construction period is much shorter, from the start of construction to the complete completion, the normal cycle is generally only two or three months.

The construction of these two factories like Tang Fei is progressing faster, less than a month, the steel frame has been completed, the general outline of the plant has come out, and it can be said that the amount of work has been nearly half.

Without being accompanied by anyone, Tang Fei wore a hard hat, work shoes and work clothes, just like this, looking around the construction site and taking a walk.

After looking at it like this, Tang Fei was satisfied and in a good mood, and unconsciously walked out of the construction site and arrived at the nearby open place.

This place continues to be idle for the time being, according to the plan, in the future there will also be a factory here, the whole area, an area of more than 1,000 acres, will be a large factory after the completion of the whole area.

This factory area is bordered by the Qingjiang River in the north, and the highway is interspersed in the east, where there will also be the entrance and exit of the expressway, and a few kilometers to the south, this is the factory area of the Red Star Factory.

The geographical location here is really good, and Tang Fei's heart is satisfied again.

Raising his hand to look at the time, it had been more than an hour, Tang Fei walked back, ready to go to his office.

When I went back, I passed by the residential area under construction, the foundation had been leveled, the foundation began to pour concrete, and the construction speed was not slow.

Tang Fei thought in his heart that the "Happy Home" will be his first employee residential community, and those who are willing to follow him will not only have good treatment, but also good benefits, and the company will provide housing for good performance.

Looking at the dilapidated residential community next to it, Tang Fei thought in his heart that when the "happy home" was completed, the two would be in stark contrast.

At that time, those who were not optimistic about themselves at all and were unwilling to follow themselves should regret it.

Tang Fei didn't know, in fact, there are many people who regret it now, especially when they see the "Happy Home" community next to them changing every day, the regret in their hearts is even stronger.

Walked into his small factory, went upstairs, entered his office, just sat down to drink a cup of tea, probably heard the movement, knew that Tang Fei was back, Tian Ming came in mysteriously and quietly.

Tian Ming reported a news to Tang Fei, Tang Fei was shocked in his heart, and thought with emotion in his heart, sure enough, the inertia of history is still too great!
