Chapter 164: Hot Hammer Forging Die Steel

The owner of Isaacson's manor is named Juanito, when Qin Hai of the previous life met him, he was already 70 years old, but he was in great health, and when he came to China for a meeting, he pestered Qin Hai to accompany him to climb the Great Wall. At this time, Juanito is only in his 40s, a middle-aged and wealthy second generation.

Juanito describes himself as a scientist and loves to study metallurgy. He has more than a dozen formulas of special steels in his hands, and he has opened a small steel mill to specialize in smelting these special steels, which can make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. This income is enough for him to live comfortably, and from time to time he can do some scientific tests and pretend to be a scientist.

According to Qin Hai's contact with Juanito, he knew that it was true that Juanito liked metallurgy, but to say that there was any invention or creation, it was boasting. The formulas in his hands were all inherited from his ancestors, or he paid for them from some unscrupulous scientists. In the previous life, Qin Hai met him because he had bought some steel formulas from Qin Hai. Qin Hai knew the rules of his formula trading, so when he heard that he was coming to Spain this time, he was ready to meet with this gentleman for a while.

According to Qin Hai's account, the taxi driver found the Isaacson Manor and parked the car outside the gate of the manor. Qin Hai got out of the car and handed over the task of paying the fare to Chen Hongcheng. Chen Hongcheng counted the pesetas out of his bag, his face bitter as if he had eaten coptis.

"Okay, Old Chen, it's only $30, as for making you miserable like this? You are also a person with a net worth of hundreds of thousands, so it is okay to look a little personable? Qin Hai joked with Chen Hongcheng with a smile.

Chen Hongcheng pointed to the manor in front of him and said, "Xiao Qin, this is where you spent 300 yuan to take a taxi?" How do I look like an orchard? ”

Qin Hai disdainfully "cut", then stepped forward and pressed the electric bell button on the gate of the manor.

"Dear Sir. Who are you looking for? A small door next to the gate of the manor opened, and a man who looked like an old servant poked his head out and asked Qin Hai.

"Is Mr. Juanito here?" Qin Hai asked.

"Are you looking for Mr. Juan Sr. or Mr. Juan Jr?" The old servant confirmed that at this time, Juanito's father was still alive. That's why the old servant asked.

Qin Haidao: "I'm looking for a Mr. Juanito in his 40s. ”

"Oh, so do you have anything to do with him?" The old servant asked tirelessly.

Qin Hai reached out and took out a small object and two pieces of paper with writing in his bag, handed them to the old servant, and said, "Please give this to Mr. Juanito, and let him decide whether he wants to see us or not." You tell him that we are from far away China and that we will only stay here...... 15 minutes. ”

What Qin Hai handed over to the old servant was a sample of a small piece of steel and an explanation of the performance indicators of the steel. That's what Juanito does. As long as you look at these indicators, you can know the value of this piece of steel, and with Qin Hai's understanding of him, he will definitely be interested in this kind of steel.

The old servant obviously knew the professional characteristics of his master, and he did not feel strange when he received this small piece of steel. He nodded to Qin Hai, then retreated to the manor and closed the small door.

Qin Hai and Chen Hongcheng waited for less than five minutes in total. The gate of the manor was opened, and a middle-aged man dressed in homely clothes greeted him with a smile. He asked, "Excuse me, are you friends from mysterious China?" ”

Qin Hai recognized him as Juanito between the eyebrows of this person, he stepped forward with a smile, stretched out his hand and greeted, "Mr. Juanito, it's a pleasure to see you." Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Qin Hai. It is the technical director of China Red Sea Industrial Company; This is my partner, Chen Hongcheng, who is the sales director of our company. ”

Chen Hongcheng's position is clearly the general manager of the Red Sea Company, but Qin Hai was stunned to lower his position in order to be equal to Chen Hongcheng. Regarding this point, Qin Hai had previously discussed with Chen Hongcheng. Chen Hongcheng has no objection to this.

"Oh, Mr. Qin, Mr. Chen, please sit inside." Juanito shook hands with Qin Hai and beckoned the two into the manor.

The Isaacson Manor is an old mansion with a large footprint, and there is a large manicured lawn from the doorway to the main building of the estate. Chen Hongcheng followed behind Juanito and Qin Hai and walked towards the manor, and everything in front of him had already shocked him.

Qin Hai is relatively familiar with Isaacson Manor, in his previous life, he visited Spain twice to attend international conferences, and even stayed here for a night. However, in order not to surprise Juanito, he did not show his prescience, but listened attentively to Juanito's introduction to the estate like a strange visitor, and from time to time he issued a polite praise or two.

The group came to the living room of the manor and sat down with the guests. The old servant stepped forward and served coffee to the three of them, and Juanito said a few polite words, and then got to the point: "Mr. Qin, just now Paul sent me a steel sample and the corresponding manual, I have already read them. I want to ask, what are you going to do when you send me these things? ”

Qin Hai asked, "Has Mr. Juanito read the indicators listed in the manual?" ”

"I see it clearly." Juanito Road.

Qin Haidao: "Then can Mr. Juanito see what kind of steel this is?" ”

Juanito nodded: "If I guessed correctly, this is a hot hammer forging die steel with high high temperature strength and wear resistance, good heat fatigue resistance and thermal conductivity, and ...... The hardenability is good, if it is used to make the mold, the cross-section of the whole mold can have relatively uniform mechanical properties. I think this should be the situation that Mr. Qin wants to show me, right? ”

"Mr. Juanito is indeed an expert in metallurgy and has a keen eye." Qin Hai praised half-truthfully. He knew that Juanito's scientific research and innovation ability was not very good, but he still had a lot of practical experience, and he always liked to think of himself as an expert.

Sure enough, hearing Qin Hai's praise, Juanito's mouth opened, and he said with a smile: "Mr. Qin praised me too much, I just have some interest in metallurgical techniques." As a continuation of a metallurgical family, I have been engaged in the research of metallurgical technology for more than 30 years, and this performance characteristics can still be seen. ”

Qin Haidao: "In that case, does Mr. Juanito think that this steel has some unique advantages compared to the existing hot hammer forging die steel on the Spanish market?" ”

After a moment of silence, Juanito said: "I must admit that the properties of this steel are better than those of similar steels available on the market, especially for the manufacture of large and medium-sized forging dies. I think Mr. Qin understands that large and medium-sized forging dies have high requirements for quenching process, and deformation will occur if you don't pay attention to it, and this kind of steel has unique features in preventing mold deformation. Of course, it also depends on how the heat treatment process is designed in the later stage. ”

This is called the Ming people not to talk darkly, the things in the technique cannot be faked, the advantages and disadvantages of this kind of steel, Qin Hai and Juanito are very clear, and there is no need to go around in any circles. In fact, Qin Hai played a little trick on this issue, and the steel he took out was a kind of die steel developed in Europe in the mid-90s, which was much superior to the steel performance in the 80s, but compared with other die steels that appeared after the 21st century, it was relatively backward. Qin Haicai wouldn't be so stupid as to sell the highest technique he had mastered.

Hearing that Juanito had already recognized the properties of this steel, Qin Hai was not polite, and he asked bluntly: "I want to package and sell all the formulas and subsequent heat treatment process specifications of this steel to Mr. Juanito, can you give me a suitable price?" ”

When he saw the piece of steel sent in by the old servant, Juanito knew the meaning of Qin Hai. He was originally in this business, and he had a good steel formula, so he would naturally spend money to buy it, because it was an intellectual property that could be used for profit.

Steel formulations are something that, on the one hand, is very useful, and on the other hand, it is extremely easy to imitate. Because of the latter characteristic, people who develop new steel formulas rarely apply for patents, because once they apply for a patent, then the entire steel design idea will be made public, and it is not difficult for others to develop similar or even better steel on the basis of this idea.

The more common practice is to keep the recipe a secret and produce it yourself, or sell it to steel companies that need it. Qin Hai found Juanito's door and wanted to sell him the formula, which was not an abrupt act.

The only thing that surprised Juanito was that it was actually two Chinese who came to sell the formula. He couldn't imagine how the Chinese could master such an advanced formula, and at the same time wondered how these two people could know their name.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Qin, before talking about this business, I want to inquire, how did you know about me?" Juanito raised his doubts.

Qin Hai smiled and said, "I have a teacher named Chen Heqian, I think Mr. Juanito should have heard of his name, right?" ”

Chen Heqian is an expert in metallurgy and has some fame in the world. Juanito, who likes vassal elegance, once had a relationship with Chen Heqian at an international conference, and the two sides also exchanged contact methods. Qin Hai said Chen Heqian's name to Juanito, which could be regarded as answering Juanito's question.

"Oh, Mr. Chen Heqian...... It turned out that Mr. Qin was a student of Mr. Chen, so it was no wonder that ......" Juanito was relieved. He looked at Qin Hai's childish face, and a thought surged in his heart: Could it be that this kind of steel was developed by Chen Heqian, and he just pretended to be the hand of Qin Hai in front of him to sell it to himself? (To be continued......)

PS: It's the end of the month, and I asked timidly: Do you still have extra monthly passes, support oranges.

I know that the update of oranges is not very powerful, and it can only be updated 6,000 words a day, which is really because people are in the workplace and can't help themselves. There are some troubles and disturbances during this period of time, and the writing is not going well, and Orange will adjust as soon as possible.
