Chapter 270: Qin Hai's scheming
Hearing Zhou Hongwen say "108,000" so righteously, Qin Hai couldn't cry or laugh. Yue Kun and the others finally designed a finalized thermal spraying machine, and the cost of light was more than 400,000 units. In the future, the cost can be slightly compressed by the factory for small batch production, but more than 300,000 is the minimum. The materials used in thermal spraying machines are expensive and require high machining accuracy, so they are very costly.
"Director Zhou, if your factory can only take out 180,000 yuan, I will send the products to Qingfeng Factory in the future, and we will process them for you. The processing fee can be cheaper for you, 10 yuan for a ploughshare. Qin Hai said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
"10 dollars a piece? You're so dark. If we really open up the international market, why can't we sell one or two million pieces a year, and we will give you one or two million? "Zhou Hongwen's mathematics was obviously learned from the math teacher, and the calculation results are very correct.
Qin Haidao: "Since Director Zhou knows this, does he still think that our thermal spraying machine only needs 108,000?" Think about it, the ploughshare processed by thermal spraying process, the service life can be increased by three times compared with the conventional ploughshare, even if you are twice the price, a ploughshare can earn more than thirty or forty yuan, one million pieces, you can earn thirty or forty million, think about it, spend 2 million to buy a piece of equipment, is it expensive? ”
"2 million? You can't mean it, do you? Zhou Hongwen's mind calmed down, and he began to realize that this kind of equipment that can surprise foreigners should not be so cheap.
Cui Hongchun also came over and said, "Xiao Qin, I haven't had time to ask you yet, can you guarantee this thermal spraying technology in terms of equipment?" Now we have already advertised the product, if you can't provide the corresponding equipment by then. That's troublesome, can't everyone take the products to the Qingfeng factory for processing, right? ”
Qin Haidao: "We have already considered this problem. We contacted two machine factories to help with the processing, and in the next two months, we can come up with about 30 to 40 pieces of equipment, but we can only keep 10 pieces of equipment for sale in the domestic market. The rest will be put on the international market. ”
"Launching on the international market?" Cui Hongchun frowned, "Of course, it is a good thing to earn foreign exchange through exports, but as soon as you sell your equipment abroad, won't we have our own technical advantages?" So what's the point of us coming to Brazil to participate in this expo? ”
"That's right, now foreign manufacturers are looking at our batch of spraying accessories, if they have the same equipment, then we won't have a market?" Zhou Hongwen also hurriedly said. He was still dreaming of exporting ploughshares to earn foreign exchange just now, if Qin Hai sold the thermal spraying machine abroad. Can their ploughshares still be competitive?
Qin Haidao: "Director Zhou doesn't have to worry, as long as you can control the cost, you won't lose your competitiveness." Relying on the technical threshold of thermal spraying to occupy the market will not last long. If you think about it, the technical level of Western countries is higher than ours, if they realize the importance of the thermal spraying process, can they still overcome the technical difficulties? Even if we don't sell them equipment, they can still build it. Instead of this, we might as well preemptively earn a foreign exchange to sell equipment. You say, don't you? ”
"Can you delay it for a while...... Anyway, it's good to give us a year and a half. Zhou Hongwen said depressedly.
said so, but Zhou Hongwen also had to admit that Qin Hai's truth was tenable. The technical level of foreigners is definitely higher than that of Chinese, and Chinese can build thermal spraying machines, can't people build them? In the past, people didn't build it. It's because people didn't expect it. Now that their products have been put out, people can understand it at a glance, and it is estimated that they will start researching it when they go back, maybe the equipment they have researched is even more advanced than Qin Hai's equipment.
As for saying that it can be delayed for a while, it will be counted for a while. This kind of thing is also whining. An Ha Province also needs to earn foreign exchange through exports, and with such good equipment, if it can be sold abroad, why don't people sell it? The so-called national game of chess, in the face of local interests, is fragile, Qin Hai has no obligation to give up the opportunity to export thermal spraying machines for the sake of Shannan Agricultural Machinery Factory.
Zhou Hongwen didn't know, in fact, what Qin Hai said was all an excuse, and Qin Hai's real thoughts didn't lie in this at all.
The thermal spraying process is indeed a layer of window paper, which will break when stabbed. The key is that the person who pierced the window paper now is Qin Hai, who has applied for technology patents in China, Europe, the United States, Japan and other places while allowing Li Linguang and Yue Kun to develop this technology. These patents can create a solid threshold that will keep subsequent researchers out of the door or have to take a detour. The so-called statement that people can quickly build the same equipment is basically bullying Zhou Hongwen for not understanding patent regulations.
The reason why Qin Hai is eager to export thermal spraying equipment to foreign countries is, of course, to seize the time to make money, and on the other hand, to use this method to slow down the pace of foreign research on thermal spraying technology. He knows that after this expo, the concept of thermal spraying will definitely become the hottest concept in the industry, not only agricultural machinery manufacturers, but also manufacturers in other fields will pay attention to this technology.
In this case, if Qin Hai does not provide them with thermal spraying equipment, they will be forced to develop the corresponding technology by themselves, although it is more difficult, but as long as there is enough real money to throw down, there is no technical obstacle that cannot be crossed.
Conversely, if Qinhai launches thermal spraying equipment in the international market in a timely manner, these companies can buy equipment at a price of hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars, and they will not have the incentive to develop independently. Foreign manufacturers are very economical, and if they can buy the technology, why do they have to spend a lot of money to do it themselves?
This hand is what many foreign companies have done to the Chinese, using relatively cheap equipment to induce you to give up independent research and development. What Qin Hai has to do now is just to treat the other side in the other way.
Qin Hai would not say this idea to Zhou Hongwen, or even to Cui Hongchun. How difficult the thermal spraying technology is, except for Li Linguang and Yue Kun, others are not clear. This time, Qinhai launched the basic accessories after thermal spraying treatment at the expo, and the main purpose is to sell thermal spraying technology and equipment, and the sales of basic parts of agricultural machinery. It's just an add-on.
Regarding Qin Hai's words, Cui Hongchun couldn't find any reason to refute them. However, his mentality is more calm than Zhou Hongwen, for him, as long as he can get some honors at the expo this time, his goal has been achieved. As for the issue of the export of basic parts by enterprises in the future. There's always a way to fix it. Qin Hai is right, don't Chinese companies still have a cost advantage?
"Xiao Qin, exporting to earn foreign exchange and providing equipment for our own enterprises cannot be wasted on both sides." Cui Hongchun exhorted in the tone of a leader, "The ministry is also very supportive of large enterprises like Director Zhou and their mountain farmers. So, if you produce new thermal spray equipment, try to provide it to them first. ”
"That's for sure." Qin Hai smiled innocently, "Our consideration is also to give priority to providing a batch of equipment for key enterprises in the ministry. We estimated that the improved thermal spraying machine is about 2.2 million yuan, and I don't know if Director Zhou can accept it. ”
"What if you don't accept it?" Zhou Hongwen said angrily, "Now you are the only one in the world who can produce this kind of equipment, unless we don't want to use this set of technology, otherwise you will drive 10 million, and we will have to buy it." ”
Qin Hai said with a smile: "Director Zhou is really right. We are in the international market and intend to sell for 10 million RMB. It's almost $2 million. In the domestic market, it is inconvenient for us to earn money from the state. ”
"Can it be sold for so much?" Cui Hongchun asked with some interest. Although he did not personally go to the Qingfeng factory to observe the thermal spraying machine manufactured in the early stage, it can be seen from the photos that Qin Hai brought him that the volume of the equipment is not large, the main part is not much larger than a diesel engine, and there are some automatic workpiece replacement devices on the periphery. At first glance, you can tell that it is not worth much. Wouldn't it be too optimistic to call out the high price of $2 million for such a piece of equipment?
Qin Hai nodded and said, "This is the value of knowledge. The equipment itself may not be worth so much money, but the money, manpower, etc. we have invested in the research and development of this technology must be counted in the equipment. Minister Cui, think about it. Some of the cutting-edge practical equipment we imported from abroad, an instrument the size of a shoe box, is often hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars. We can't make it ourselves, don't we have to spend this unjust money to buy it? ”
"You're right." Cui Hongchun also figured it out, "Since no one has this kind of technology, I support you to sell it more expensive, which is also to win glory for the country." ”
"Thank you, Minister Cui, for your support." Qin Hai hit the snake with the stick, and immediately followed up: "Minister Cui, we plan to publicize our thermal spraying equipment by the way at this expo, this should not violate the principle, right?" ”
As soon as this question was raised, Cui Hongchun was so hung that he vomited blood: this is an agricultural machinery exhibition, and the state has paid so much money to organize everyone to participate in the exhibition, in order to promote domestic agricultural machinery and tools, can thermal spraying machines be regarded as agricultural equipment? In the name of participating in agricultural exhibitions, promoting one's own private goods, if this does not violate the principle, what else violates the principle?
However, Qin Hai's name is high-sounding, and he himself said that this is a matter of winning glory for the country. Since it is to win glory for the country, how can you oppose it?
Cui Hongchun choked himself enough, and nodded for a long time before he nodded, and said: "It is also a good thing to be able to use this opportunity to promote a little more Chinese technology." However, if you pay a little attention, it's not good to dominate the crowd. (To be continued......)
PS: There are a lot of things going on this month, and as you can see, there are many days when this book is updated after midnight. As soon as I stay up late, my mouth is full of foam, and I am really old. I plan to try to go to bed before midnight for some time to come. Renewal is a big deal, but the body is also very important, and people of this age really can't fight as hard as young people.
Starting tomorrow, it's a double monthly pass.,If you don't dislike the orange update this month is too scummy.,Just support it.。 If you feel angry...... Orange is also embarrassed to ask for votes. In the next three days, if the working hours allow, the orange may have a few more chapters, mainly to make up for the previous debts, and it will be as much as you can make up.
