Chapter 112 Aircraft OEM
The three of them chatted for more than half an hour, and Mark and Neon came, and after a while Ling Zhigao also came, along with his best friend Wang Haihua, Allison, Foster, and Grove.
As soon as Wang Haihua came in, he said to Ling Shizhe: "Ling Shao is generous, you have changed to play with airplanes, do you know that since you took over the introduction project of F-4 fighters, the north has been very annoyed with you." ”
Regarding Wang Haiwen's ridicule, Ling Shizhe said indiscriminately: "We do things, when has the north been happy, does Lao Tzu need to look at their faces, and don't look in the mirror, what kind of things are they, are they annoyed, I'm still angry." ”
The words full of contempt made Wang Haihua notice the national/national/party/general/general uniform on his body, and realized that he was too Meng Lang just now, the Ling family is all national/democratic/party, how can they have a good impression of the north, fortunately, he has a good relationship with the Ling family, and if he was someone else, he would have been beaten out by Ling Shizhe.
Tao Cheng'an saw that the atmosphere was a little cold, and hurriedly interjected to shift the target to the art exhibition they went to see today, and at the same time secretly glared at Wang Haihua, blaming him for being a little unscrupulous, and he didn't want to think about whether Ling Shizhe was a person who was afraid of threats, the more he threatened him, the greater his fighting spirit.
Ling Zhigao was not very satisfied with what Wang Haihua said just now, but seeing that he was his friend for many years, he pretended not to hear it.
Today, except for Wang Haihua, the rest of the people, including his father Ling Zhigao, were all called by Ling Shizhe today, the purpose is to discuss the future development of the China Aircraft Industry Corporation, but he did not expect that Ling Zhigao actually called Wang Haihua over, he did not understand his intentions, Wang Haihua has always been unclear with the other side, Ling Shizhe does not want him to get involved, usually he and Wang Haihua in addition to normal work matters, everything related to the two sides of the strait This old gentleman will be confused.
Wang Haihua is a rightist, and he hooks up with the left; said that he was a leftist, and his political stance was a typical right-leaning ideology; said that he was a centrist, and he did not have any dealings with them, and he did not understand that he was a person over there, and many times his remarks were very inappropriate, offending both sides, if it were not for Ling Zhigao to protect him, this old gentleman would have no other way but to stay away from Hong Kong.
At this time, Li Li came to the living room and said, "Dinner is ready, let's eat." ”
Ling Zhigao stood up and said, "Let's eat first." ”
Everyone walked towards the dining room, Ling Shizhe took a step behind and whispered beside Ling Zhigao: "Why did you call Old Man Wang, don't you know that this old gentleman is a fool about cross-strait affairs?" ”
"What concerns the two sides of the strait, I only know that today is just a matter of discussing the future development of your aircraft company." After Ling Zhigao finished speaking, he walked directly into the dining room.
Seeing Ling Zhigao's back, Ling Shizhe sighed, shook his head and followed everyone to the dining room.
Today's dishes are very rich, it is a typical Huaiyang cuisine series, Ling Shizhe can't name it, Tao Cheng'an and Ling Zhigao's tastes love Huaiyang cuisine, so Ling Shizhe asked someone to invite a master who specializes in Huaiyang cuisine from the Peninsula Hotel to take charge of the spoon.
After the wine and food were full, everyone came to the study, Li Li and Li Qian served tea to everyone, Ling Zhigao looked at the young and beautiful Li Qian like a little daughter-in-law, then turned his head to look at Ling Shizhe, and signaled with his eyes: What's going on, she is your new woman?
Ling Shizhe nodded, admitting his guess, and Ling Zhigao stopped talking.
After the two of them finished serving tea to everyone and went out, Ling Zhigao spoke first: "Old Seven, let's talk first, what are your plans for this aircraft company." ”
Ling Shizhe took a puff of cigarette and said: "This is also the reason why I came to discuss with everyone, originally I planned to let the party-state introduce F-4 fighter technology, I was using the platform of the F-4 fighter to develop a new integrated avionics system, so that Ambrera Company will lay the foundation for entering the avionics market in the future, but the party-state asked me to be responsible for the introduction of F-4 fighters, which disrupted my original plan, and the party's words could not but be heard. That's why I brought everyone together to discuss what the future of this aircraft company should be. ”
"Then you should have a preliminary idea, you should first tell me your thoughts."
"I plan to do so, divided into three parts, China Aircraft Industry Corporation as a piece, aero engine as a piece, Ambrera company set up a jet and propulsion laboratory, specifically responsible for the development and production of aero engines, and the establishment of Ambrera precision department, Hong Kong and the United States two mechanical processing plants to merge in, in the future this department is responsible for the production and processing of aero engine parts, as well as the development and production of some necessary aviation production equipment."
"Which department is responsible for the spare parts of the aircraft?" Allison chimed in.
"The vast majority of aircraft parts are outsourced, and the aircraft company is only responsible for the research, production and assembly of key components, and the avionics company is responsible for the aircraft company, Apple and Ambrera."
"Where is the company's profitability?" Foster asked.
"The company's profit point in the future is mainly focused on avionics equipment, but in the early stage, it mainly relies on the OEM production of F-4 fighters to make money."
……
Seeing that they were puzzled, Allison explained to them: "One of the main reasons why McDonnell Douglas transferred F-4 fighter technology to us is that they want to use cheap labor from Asians, after all, American labor is too expensive, since the end of World War II, the labor cost of the United States has risen dozens of times, McDonnell Douglas can't afford it, and the F-4 fighter as the main force has not performed well in the Vietnam battlefield, and now F-4 has withdrawn from the main front, and now the main force is the F-105 fighter, And the price of the F-4 fighter is much more expensive than the F-105 fighter. The U.S. Congress is very dissatisfied with McDonnell Douglas' F-4 fighters and has significantly reduced its procurement plan, so McDonnell Doesnnell Douglas will hand over to us to produce them to reduce costs, hoping to sell them at a reduced price to hold orders. ”
Allison said that this situation is a mold from the T-50 trainer aircraft program handed over to South Korea by the United States in the 21st century, and the T-50 trainer aircraft, codenamed "Golden Eagle", is a supersonic jet advanced trainer aircraft. The trainer is Lockheed? Martin and Korea Aerospace Industries jointly developed for the South Korean Air Force, in fact, it is mainly Lockheed? Martin is responsible for development, and South Korea is only responsible for OEM production.
In fact, in the 21st century, the training aircraft used in the United States have reached the service life one after another, and a new type of training aircraft is urgently needed to replace the original training aircraft, but the training aircraft produced in the United States are more expensive than the training aircraft produced by other countries, and the United States has encountered a financial crisis in 08 years, the defense budget has been sharply reduced, and the United States cannot come up with enough funds to purchase new training aircraft, so Lockheed? Martin Company thought of a way to hand over most of the parts of the training aircraft to South Korea for production, and the aircraft assembly was also handed over to South Korea for OEM, and then sold to the United States at a one-third cheaper price. Martin Company has made money by taking advantage of the different labor cost gaps between China and South Korea, and South Korea has made a lot of foundry fees, which can be described as a lot of money.
The training aircraft is not a high-tech thing, the trainee pilot sits in it, the instructor flies with the rookie pilot, as long as these rookies are taught to fly, as for how to fight, it is a matter of professional fighters, after becoming an official fighter pilot, you will be allowed to fly the fighter and slowly train tactical tactics, so the training aircraft is not a high-level thing in the eyes of the Yankees, and it is just right to hand it over to the South Korean OEM.
This F-4 fighter is similar to the situation of South Korea's T-50 trainer aircraft, the performance of the F-4 fighter on the battlefield in Vietnam made the United States very disappointed, listing him as an unreliable fighter, orders have been greatly reduced, many overseas orders have also been reduced, an unreliable fighter so the Yankees will agree to transfer technology to Taiwan/Bay, plus Lockheed? Martin company intends to use Hong Kong's cheap labor to guarantee orders, so Ambrera company and Lockmartin company hit it off, I will OEM technology, you make money to protect the order, both sides take what they need.
Although he only earned a little labor cost, it was enough for Ling Shizhe, his main purpose was to obtain technology, not to mention that now it is no more than the 21st century, developed countries have very strict control over the technology of developing countries, and there are a lot of loopholes to drill, plus the United States has classified the F-4 fighter as a second-line fighter, and the 105 fighter is the main force, and the F-14 fighter is about to enter service in the future, and it is really unnecessary to hide the technology of the F-4 fighter, so simply transfer it to Taiwan/Bay for him to pick up and deal with the mainland. You can still use some residual heat.
It's a pity that the United States has a good plan, but Lao Jiang doesn't know what he thinks, he doesn't want it, he thinks the F-4 is too bad, and he would rather want F-5 and F-105 fighters, but he just forgot that the F-4 is a heavy long-range fighter, don't you want to counterattack the mainland? This thing is just right, but he didn't want it, he thought he was rubbish, okay, you don't want me, Ling Shizhe took over.
After listening to Alison's explanation, everyone understood the twists and turns.
"The qualifications of more than 36,000 containers, despite this, the key technical information is still not given." Ling Zhigao has dealt with the Yankees a lot, and he is still very clear about their urine, so he asked this question.
Sure enough, Ling Shizhe nodded and said: "Lao Dou, that's right, the United States didn't give us the key technical information, although the means of production of those core components were given to us, although they could be produced, but we didn't know the principle of doing so." ”
"In those ways?" Wang Haihua asked.
Foster said: "The two parts of radar and fire control system, as for the avionics system, our Ambrera company itself is engaged in semiconductors, this part is completely meaningless to hide from us, even if we hide it It will not take long for us to figure it out ourselves, the avionics of the F-4 fighter is nothing unusual, so they are very generous and directly give it in the avionics part." ”
"What about aero engines, they were so generous to you?" Wang Haihua asked.
