"Oh? Is this true? ”

Sato couldn't help but take over the conversation and asked, Tanaka and Yukio Toyoda were also staring at each other, Huaguo actually has a company that produces steel plates suitable for their products, why don't they know?

To be honest, although they are engaged in automobiles, not steel smelting, they are very clear about the situation of Huaguo's steel smelting industry.

In fact, when it comes to the smelting technology of Huaguo Iron and Steel, it still comes from Japan, which was in the 80s of the last century, when the short leader of Huaguo went around Japan, and it was the best time for China's relations with Japan.

At that time, Japan came up with a lot of technology to support China, including this steel smelting, the earliest Huaguo steel smelting technology, inherited from Da Maozi, but they have not made much progress for decades, and it has been an extensive smelting model, so the smelting of special steel is not mentioned at all, and even the most basic steel smelting is in a state of high energy consumption and low output.

At that time, Nippon Steel of Japan supported the smelting technology of their Puhai Iron and Steel Company, but the Japanese also harbored evil intentions in this technical support.

The steel smelting technology they provide to Huaguo cannot be said to be bad, but the requirements for the steelmaking furnace are very high, so that the steelmaking furnace can only smelt very high-quality iron ore, and the kind of low-grade iron ore produced by Huaguo itself is completely incompatible with the steelmaking furnace.

They have already calculated, in the case of a big country like China, if they develop in the future, they will definitely import iron ore from all over the world in the future.

And taking into account their geographical location. For them. The most cost-effective place to import iron ore. It can only be Australia, so as early as that time, the Japanese began to lay out and acquire iron ore companies in Australia.

And their calculations also ensure that they have reaped enough benefits after more than 20 years.

Of course, that's all for later, and when it comes to steel smelting technology, Mitsuto Tanaka and Yukio Toyoda are very clear. They are the first Japanese car companies to enter China, so most of the raw materials they produce are purchased from China, so the two of them are clear about the level of Huaguo's steel smelting technology.

The high-end ones only need to estimate and guess that the Chinese people have no foundation and development at all in this regard, and more than 20 years have passed since the introduction of technology from Japan.

In fact, with their ability, they can completely upgrade their steel smelting technology to a higher level, or even several grades. But they don't seem to have much interest in doing scientific research themselves.

Even now, they have been able to smelt the lowest building profiles on a large scale. And the most common rough steel, with such scientific research efforts, you can still count on them to develop any good profiles.

Therefore, as early as the beginning of Huaguo's investment and construction of factories, after they inspected the general situation of Huaguo's iron and steel companies, they did not report any hope for Huaguo's iron and steel enterprises.

Take the most common steel plate used in automobiles, such steel plates seem to be very simple to produce, but in fact, they are not like that at all.

First of all, such a steel plate, what you have to do is corrosion resistance, after all, although the body steel plate is painted on the outside, but because it is often blown by the wind and rain, even if it is painted, it is very easy to rust.

Therefore, in order to prevent the steel plate from rusting, it is necessary to galvanize the steel plate, so the most common steel plate used in general cars is galvanized steel plate.

And the better Lingxin car companies will use double-sided galvanized steel plates for you, while those that lack morality will simply use single-sided galvanized sheets.

Moreover, such a plate as yours must also have considerable tensile resistance and strong yield test, and in this regard, the plate produced by Huaguo's steel enterprises is not up to the test at all.

Especially in terms of yield resistance, which means the strength of your steel plate, and in this regard, the steel plate produced by Huaguo is very poor, and the reason is very simple, that is, it is not up to par in terms of heat treatment.

Because after the steel plate is processed and formed, there will be a heat treatment process, but because this process takes a long time, the process is very complex, and some special processing methods are also needed, so the cost will increase.

Therefore, many Huaguo iron and steel enterprises are not willing to work hard in this area at all, which leads to their technology has not been improved, and they cannot produce the kind of plate that Japanese car manufacturers demand.

But now this guy on the other side actually said that Huaguo has an enterprise that can produce steel plates that meet their needs, which is ...... Isn't that hell?

You know, in order to be able to recruit suitable suppliers, they ran all over China, and almost all the large iron and steel enterprises in China were searched, but they also failed to find a suitable company, and now they actually say that there is.

Isn't that a joke? You know, those powerful iron and steel enterprises in China, they have all gone, Pudong Iron and Steel, Wuhan Iron and Steel, Anshan Iron and Steel, they have all been to inspect, but they have not been able to find qualified steel, how do they know that they will have a suitable steel smelting enterprise in China?

"Li Sang, you're not kidding us, are you?"

Sato asked again suspiciously, while Li Zheng on the other side laughed, he was carrying private goods, in fact, it was also ordered by the previous boss.

Li Yifan pondered at the time, anyway, the Japanese also want to import such steel plates from domestic steel mills, and it is better to use their own qualified products than to use such substandard products.

Although the cost is a little more expensive, it can also allow more people who use Japanese cars to get a guarantee of safety, and by the way, it is also to help their Bincheng special metal smelting company find another business.

"How so? In fact, this is also a chance that we found out. At that time, we went to North Province to do an interview, there is a local automobile company, the steel plate used is very good, we asked by the way, people just told us, in Bincheng, North Province, there is a special metal smelting company, this is a newly established company, the scale is not large, but in the special metal smelting is very handy, they produce special profiles, plates, quality is very reliable. Later, we also went to verify that where they can produce special profiles and plates that fully meet the standards of your Japanese cars. ”

Of course, Li Zheng had the responsibility to advertise his boss at this time, and when Sato and the others heard this, their eyes couldn't help but light up.

Indeed, as the person in charge of the automobile company, there is no way to use low-quality steel before, and everyone knows that word of mouth is very important, and who does not want their products to be reliable and not to be criticized.

No one knows better than them how unreliable their domestic Japanese cars are in China, and to be honest, if there are qualified steel and good steel plates, who wants to use those poor plates.

Although the cost can be saved, the key is that the materials you use will strictly affect your product and reputation in the market.

The safety of today's Japanese products, the reputation in the market is very problematic, they are also like to do the improvement, electronic configuration is good to say, when the time comes to install it, but this requires the use of more high-grade profiles and plates has become a headache for them.

After all, such a plate is not a high-tech product at all in foreign countries, and can only be classified into the sequence of ordinary products, but in China, this is a high-end product, and they can't buy it if they want to.

If it is imported, the cost is too expensive, so they can only settle for the next best thing and use low-grade profiles and plates.

Now Li Zheng told them, and he swore that there was such a steel company in China that could produce plates and profiles that met their production standards, and they were immediately interested.

"Is that really the case? That's really great, Li Sang, wait a minute, can you help us leave the contact information of that factory, we plan to go and investigate, if it is really as you said, where they really have such qualified plates and profiles, we can consider buying directly from them. In this way, in the future, our new products can also have better security, so as to be worthy of the trust of the majority of Chinese consumers. ”

Mitsuto Tanaka continued on the side, and although Yukio Toyoda didn't speak, his face showed a very interested look.

Li Zheng laughed, and then said: "Okay, no problem, you can rest assured of this." Wait a while, I'll leave you their contact information, you can make an appointment to investigate, I definitely don't tell a lie, although you can rest assured, I will definitely not let you run in vain. ”

"That is, you can rest assured that we have all gone to see it with our own eyes, and I think that if you are really sincere, you can directly purchase a batch of steel and plates from them to take a look, and then when it comes to production, we can send some reporters to go over to do an exclusive interview with your production and processing, as well as materials, which also happens to be a special program in our next issue, the name of this special program is Factory Exploration, mainly for the interviews of the factories of several large car companies, The purpose is to give consumers a more detailed understanding of how a car is produced. Don't underestimate this kind of article, his main purpose is to let consumers have a deeper understanding of their favorite brands, and how to produce the ...... of cars through various high-level models" (to be continued......
