"Don't go."
Sure enough, Liu Xianghai grabbed Lin Zhenhua and said, "It's not enough to have people. The second is the issue of funding. ”
Lin Zhenhua frowned as if he had eaten Coptis chinensis: "Lao Liu, you said that this is a national project, and the country is still short of this money?" People have used it for you, you can't pay for it from our company, right? ”
Liu Xianghai knew that Lin Zhenhua was acting, but it was not convenient to expose him. He said: "To carry a high-temperature gas-cooled reactor to an aircraft carrier, it involves the research of dozens of key technologies. Experts estimate that at least $2 billion will be needed to solve all these technologies. At present, although there is some surplus in the state finance, there are many holes that need to be filled, and it is impossible to invest 2 billion yuan in this project at once.
So, the idea is to join forces with some large companies to co-finance. As such a large enterprise with such a high ranking in China, and a technology-related enterprise, Hanhua should bear a part of it, right? ”
"How much are you going to ask us to pay?" Lin Zhenhua asked.
Liu Xianghai looked at Zhang Yihua, Zhang Yihua hurriedly turned his head away, not daring to look at Liu Xianghai, he couldn't expose the core intelligence of the company in front of his boss. Liu Xianghai smiled, turned his head to Lin Zhenhua and said, "200 million, how about it?" ”
As soon as this number came out, Lin Zhenhua knew how in-depth the information that Zhang Yihua and Liu Xianghai had exchanged. These 200 million yuan is a figure that was discussed at the meeting of the group company, and it was agreed that the maximum amount of money that the group could come up with to develop helium turbine technology was 200 million. However, judging from the conditions at that time, 200 million could not complete the development of the required technologies, so the project was eventually shelved.
Now, Liu Xianghai said a quota of 200 million in one bite. Obviously, Zhang Yihua revealed the company's bottom line to Liu Xianghai, and Liu Xianghai is essentially a person who engages in technology. Not very good at bluffing. So I directly put forward this bottom line.
For other people and other occasions, Zhang Yihua's behavior is definitely not allowed, but with the relationship between Lin Zhenhua and Liu Xianghai, even if Zhang Yihua doesn't say it. Lin Zhenhua will also talk to Liu Xianghai about it, in this regard. Whether it is Zhang Yihua or Liu Xianghai, they all have the same thoughts as Lin Zhenhua.
"It's okay to give 200 million, so what is our return?" Lin Zhenhua asked. Since 200 million is his psychological bottom line. Naturally, there is no need to bargain anymore.
Hanhua will definitely not be able to complete such a research with 200 million yuan of its own investment. The reason why the Commission of Science and Technology has been able to do this is because it has mobilized the technical strength of the whole country, including the use of a large number of existing research results, which is equivalent to saving a lot of investment in the early stage, which is the advantage of the national system.
"We can get all the patents for the helium turbine technology." Zhang Yihua hurriedly replied, "The value of this patent." It will not be less than 10000000000000000000 ”
Lin Zhenhua asked Liu Xianghai: "Lao Liu, Lao Zhang said this." Is that your opinion? ”
Liu Xianghai said: "Basically, that's what it means, but there is an additional clause that the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry can use all these patents for free due to national defense purposes." ”
"Isn't Huaqing University and the Commission of Science and Technology a loss?" Lin Zhenhua said with a smile. The use of these patents by the Commission of Science and Technology is free of charge, which does not matter to Hanhua. However, several research institutes of the Commission of Science and Technology and Huaqing University that participated in the research voluntarily gave up the ownership of the patent, which was tantamount to letting Hanhua choose a big bargain. A few years later, the big bargain that Hanhua chose was equivalent to the value of a mountain of gold.
Helium turbine technology is not only used in nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, its main purpose is to build fourth-generation nuclear power plants.
So far, the world's operating nuclear power plants are second-generation technologies, which have low safety factors and are highly prone to nuclear accidents like those in Fukushima, Japan. In a world parallel to the novel, China signed a contract with Westinghouse in 2007 to introduce the AP1000 technology, which belongs to the third generation of nuclear power plants, and is much safer than the second generation. But even so, this technology is still not completely safe, it is only a significant decrease in the probability of accidents, and an increase in the ability to control accidents. …,
Fourth-generation nuclear power technology represents a higher level of safety than the third-generation nuclear power, in which the fourth-generation nuclear power using high-temperature gas-cooled reactors is theoretically absolutely safe, and can even be built on the periphery of cities without fear of accidents. It is conceivable that if the fourth generation of nuclear power technology can be commercialized, the world's original nuclear power plants will inevitably be phased out and replaced by this new technology that is both clean and safe.
The rebuilding of hundreds of nuclear power plants is a terrifying business opportunity! As a key equipment for high-temperature gas-cooled reactor power generation, helium turbines can only be described in astronomical terms.
For the value of helium turbine technology, Hanhua Group has also estimated, and the result of the estimation is much larger than the 1 billion that Zhang Yihua just said. The reasons why Hanhua Group has not invested in this research for a long time are, first, the initial investment is far from being able to meet the needs of 200 million yuan, and second, helium turbine technology is only one of the technologies in the fourth generation of nuclear power, and if there is no breakthrough in high-temperature gas-cooled reactor technology, it is worthless to come up with a helium turbine technology.
Now, the opportunity has come, taking advantage of the opportunity to build a 100,000-ton nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, the country has decided to concentrate its efforts and invest heavily in the comprehensive overhaul of high-temperature gas-cooled reactor and helium turbine technology, which means that the fourth generation of nuclear power will be on the horizon. With a country as the leader, it is entirely possible to use the technology formed in this research to build an experimental commercial fourth-generation nuclear power plant, which will inevitably be followed by the finalization of the technology and the blowout development of the fourth-generation nuclear power. By being able to catch this express train, Hanhua has seized a prominent position in the future nuclear power market.
Hearing these conditions offered by Liu Xianghai, Lin Zhenhua spoke highly of Zhang Yihua in his heart. Zhang Yihua stubbornly pulled Hanhua into this project, which is really the hero of the entire group. In fact, Zhang Yihua, as a member of Hanhua's senior management team, would not be able to take care of it if it was really something that made Hanhua suffer.
"These technologies, left in the hands of Hanhua, can be regarded as fertile water does not flow into the fields of outsiders." Liu Xianghai said, "What the Commission of Science and Technology wants is the right to use patented technology; On the side of Huaqing University, the right of authorship of the results is required. Direct economic benefits, they don't want much. If GCA can bear the main cost of the development of the helium turbine, it is only natural that it will have the final research results. Hanhua is also a national enterprise, without the tax revenue you create, how can there be the development of military industry and national science and technology? ”
"Yes, yes." Lin Zhenhua hurriedly said, "In fact, the interests are not interested, it is too cheesy, I know that the Commission of Science and Technology and Huaqing University don't care about this, so let our company bear a mercenary infamy." ”
"You Xiaolin, you are really cheap and good." Liu Xianghai scolded with a smile, "Okay, now you should be willing to pay for it, right?" ”
"Look at what you said, serving the country, when did we Hanhua not be willing?" Lin Zhenhua said righteously, "The question of money is over, what else is there?" ”
"And things." Liu Xianghai was not stunned by Lin Zhenhua, he still followed his own train of thought and said, "In terms of things, it is actually very simple, the main thing is that Hanhua needs us to provide us with some processing equipment, and when Lao Zhang and they were engaged in gas turbines, they purchased a set of advanced experimental equipment, and we may have to borrow it at that time, you can't be reluctant." ”
"Didn't say that!" Lin Zhenhua waved his hand and said, "Lao Zhang can call the shots in this matter." ”
Between the three of them talking and laughing together, they negotiated a big project that would affect the future development of GCA in the next 20 years. Of course, how to provide human, financial and material support, as well as how to distribute the final results, etc., still need to be negotiated in more detail, these are the specific matters to be considered by the specific managers of both parties. ..., Zhang Yihua saw that the matter had been discussed, and he had no intention of chatting with Lin Zhenhua and Liu Xianghai again, and after a few words of greeting, he returned to his job. Liu Xianghai took Lin Zhenhua out of the aircraft carrier workshop, and he said to Lin Zhenhua with apologies: "Xiaolin, I'm sorry, I asked you for someone and money, and I didn't communicate with you in advance." ”
Lin Zhenhua smiled: "Lao Liu, don't be polite, do you still need to say such polite words between us?" To be honest, the cooperation between Hanhua and the military industrial system has always been a win-win situation, and you have helped us a lot. ”
"We just gave you some opportunities, and every time you contributed money and efforts, it was you." Liu Xianghai said, "Regarding the helium turbine, you can discuss it with the leaders of the group team after you go back, if everyone thinks it is not suitable, you don't have to be reluctant, we will find a way to raise funds from other places." ”
Lin Zhenhua said: "The discussion must be discussed again, but I don't think it's a big problem." The helium turbine project has been discussed many times by our group, and as long as the conditions are ripe, we will definitely start it. Now that there is such an opportunity for military-civilian cooperation, if it is abandoned, it will really be a short-sighted thing. ”
"That's good." Liu Xianghai said happily that he has been busy raising money in the past few years, and Hanhua has helped him the most. But if Hanhua was to reluctantly come up with 200 million, he wouldn't be happy in his heart. Now that he heard Lin Zhenhua say that Hanhua had already had this intention, he felt much more at ease.
Lin Zhenhua stayed in Shanghai for another two days, visited Xiong Lijun of Daxiong Household Appliances, and went to see the propeller company that Hanhua cooperated with the Ship Institute, and then returned to Xunyang to perform his duties as chairman. He, the chairman, has always been a hands-off shopkeeper, and when he runs around outside, he is far more than when he stays in the office and gives orders, and everyone is used to it.
This time, Lin Zhenhua was not able to stay in Xunyang for a full month, because there was a new news from Chen Tian, saying that there is a small country called Singapore in Southeast Asia, and something is coming out again.
