Chapter 1042: A Huge Gamble
Since it is clear that the big leader is playing with the comparison of the four prototypes of the test flight, Yang Hui can't help but say the problems here, which is the responsibility of the general manager of AVIC Southwest, and also out of Yang Hui's own thinking about the aviation industry. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
It's just that this must not be said too directly, and even the money bags of the government on the side don't dare to talk too much at this time, not to mention a little minion like Yang Hui, if one is not good, the future will be ruined, so the way of speaking is very important.
No matter what to do, the only way at this time can only be to save the country with a curve: "Prototype vs. test flight? Do you know that now there are three design institutes for the design of the PK, and the state can now give enough funds for the prototype manufacturing of the three schemes? “
Questioning other aspects is not good, Yang Hui can only pretend not to know, and also turn to question the country's scientific research funding for related projects, you must know that no matter how important the fourth is, there is still a funding limit, and according to the news released by the military before, the early expected research and development funds can only barely meet the needs of a prototype of a program.
Therefore, Yang Hui is worried that there is not enough money, and this can still be said in the past, at least it will not leave a bad impression on the big leaders. However, Yang Hui is still too young after all, he doesn't know how dark the big leader's heart is, and at this time, he is even more ruthless, and for the financial problem just mentioned, it is even more boundless.
Hearing these words, the big leader's eyes were about to narrowly smile, and he scolded Fang Xuan indifferently: "What's so difficult about this, the problem that can be solved with money has never been a problem, this is your general manager Yang's personal words back then, why, it doesn't count now?" “
I'll go! I really never expected that Yang Hui's words a few years ago, all now at this time, can still be caught by the big leader braids, at that time it was still the time when AVIC Southwest invested in the development of aero engines on a large scale, at that time United Aero Engine Company suffered from lack of funds, Yang Hui was on behalf of the head office to express absolute support for United Aero Engine Company, so he said such a sentence, but did not think about it......
There's no way, you can't let the big leaders grasp it as a pigtail, otherwise in the future, any project with a huge cost will have to be assigned to the southwest of AVIC, so even if the landlord's family is generous, we can't stand the toss.
Fortunately, Yang Hui is still quite young, and his mind is relatively flexible, and the excuse for exculpation is at his fingertips: "Leader, this can no longer be used to describe AVIC Southwest, I said this sentence before because I knew that the funds that needed to be invested at that time would not be too much, plus the profits of AVIC Southwest at that time did not need to be handed over to the state at all in addition to normal taxes, so we had enough funds for scientific research at that time, but now most of our profits should be handed over to the state, which is ......." “
AVIC Southwest from 83 years ago, enjoy ten years of corporate profits do not need to hand over the country's preferential policy period, and that is also the golden decade of the rapid development of the whole company, to 92 years, the ten-year period is due, after the AVIC Southwest although the profitability of the blowout, but most of them have been handed over to the state, can really stay to make their own funds are not much.
Now to talk about this, Yang Hui is completely at ease, anyway, what he stated is just a fact, no one can refute it, didn't he see that when Yang Hui said this just now, the money bag of the government next to him suddenly turned better?
The government took away most of AVIC's profits, whether it was used for other places that needed more financial support, or it was unclear what was said, anyway, the annual accounts were there, and no one could erase the merits of AVIC Southwest.
The big leader didn't expect Yang Hui to come out like this, and now it seems that it is because the state took away the money that the funds in the southwest of AVIC are insufficient, but if you think about it carefully, this is not unreasonable, but the big leader said that we have other statements.
"Speaking of which, I originally planned to transfer half of the funds for the prototype manufacturing of the Heavy Four Project to you, but now I suddenly feel that there is no need for this at all, so why don't we make a bet, do you want to listen to it?"
When the big leader came to the southwest of AVIC, he actually had to openly gamble, which may not have a good impact.......
However, Yang Hui said that we like this kind of exciting work, and he was ready to play: "Bet? Since the leader has this interest, we must accompany it. “
Yang Hui must be not the only one who is interested, the entire conference room is convinced by this unprecedented bet, and it is the first time that a big leader can be so down-to-earth.
Everyone watched: "Didn't you say before that there was a bid for an order from the United Arab Emirates, and now that the country has once again lifted the export restrictions on J-18, it depends on whether you can get this order." And now we are betting on whether AVIC Southwest can get this order, as long as you guarantee that you can complete the prototype manufacturing of the two solutions without the investment of the state, then no matter how much profit is generated by the UAE order, the country will not take any money. “
Interesting, this is very interesting, AVIC Southwest guarantees to complete the design and manufacture of the prototype of the two types of heavy four solutions of its two major military fighter design and research institutes, and the corresponding country will not take the profit of the order between AVIC Southwest and the United Arab Emirates.
First of all, AVIC Southwest has to complete the prototype of the two programs by itself, which is actually not a big problem, although this will make the entire AVIC Southwest tighten its belt and live a hard life for a few years, but the company's ability must be there.
Since AVIC Southwest has the ability to make prototypes of the two plans by itself, this means that the company has a bet, and then look at the bet made by the big leader.
I have to say that the temptation of the UAE order is too great, first of all, Yang Hui knows that the current order in the UAE is likely to be successful, and secondly, he also knows what kind of sky-high price the price of the UAE order can be, and it is expected that the project will be at least more than 40% of the total profitable order, that is, it can reach at least about 2 billion US dollars, or even more.
You then talk about how much it costs to design and manufacture the two heavy quadruple prototypes, first of all, compare the funds spent on the manufacture of the prototypes of the two schemes in the LWF project that year, the US Air Force issued contracts worth $37.9 million and $39.8 million to General Dynamics and Northrop respectively, requiring them to trial produce two prototypes for test flight comparison, General Dynamics' program number YF-16, Northrop's program number YF-17.
Some people may say that the two prototypes of the third generation aircraft in the early seventies do not seem to cost much money, but considering the depreciation of the dollar and the technological gap between the third and fourth generation aircraft, in fact, this data does not have much reference value, but the prototype manufacturing cost in the ATF project is more valuable.
In fact, the U.S. military gave Loma and Boeing $700 million respectively in the ATF project, which is the funds needed for the manufacture of stealth fighter prototypes.
Therefore, this is indeed a bet worth betting, huge risks and huge benefits coexist, the most important thing is that in this way, the entire three military fighter design and research institutes under the Southwest of China Aviation can take this opportunity to master the design and manufacturing capabilities of the fourth-generation aircraft, and in the future of the next generation of military fighters, this can ensure that the military has more choices.
