Chapter 711: Mercedes bows his head
Will they go to the Iron Horse Factory?
Of course not, what will their expressions be like when they go there? Qin Zhenhua could laugh from his heart.
This is how Porsche's engineers should have felt when they see Porsche.
Now, Mercedes-Benz heavy truck personnel to a machine factory inspection, of course, is also the importance of a machine factory, they should now also understand that if you want to find a factory in the East to cooperate, a machine factory is the best choice.
In order to introduce the Steyr project, it is a comprehensive combination of manufacturers with a vehicle production capacity of more than eight tons in China, and only these factories can be combined to eat these projects.
The transportation sector has no other ability, and a machine factory is currently self-financing to establish a branch of the car, but also intends to produce heavy trucks, but they want to develop their own, it is definitely a huge effort, so if Mercedes-Benz is willing to export technology, this is definitely a win-win situation.
Mercedes-Benz saw the demand here and came over.
At this time, Marx stood quietly in front of the 10,000-ton hydraulic press developed by a machine factory, looked at the hydraulic press pressing a steel ingot, and asked curiously: "What are you going to do with this steel ingot?" ”
"Blank of engine crankshaft." Qin Zhenhua replied: "In the past, we could only forge on a 2,000-ton hydraulic press, and the quality of the blank was not very good. ”
Suppressing a car girder, that's just an appetizer, a 10,000-ton hydraulic press, the effect is great.
The blank pressing of the engine crankshaft is one of them, the crank bearing is transmitted by the connecting rod, and the reciprocating motion is converted into rotation, and its quality directly determines the performance of an engine.
Now, after the machining here, the crankshaft of the engine, the quality is absolutely just.
"Engine crankshaft?" Hearing his introduction, Royce, who came with him, frowned: "So, you still plan to build an engine?" ”
"Yes, we have introduced Steyr's heavy truck project, the engine used in this heavy truck, to the supporting manufacturers to produce, however, many manufacturers of technology is not in place, so many parts are required to help us to process them." Qin Zhenhua said very casually.
Actually, of course, this is.
Different from those described in the cool article, the introduction of technology and the production of a heavy truck is definitely not something that can be solved in a word, and it takes great efforts and years at every turn.
After the introduction of the Steyr heavy truck project, the initial production was in accordance with the CDK method, the introduction of parts, the domestic assembly, and then the gradual localization, in this process, there are many problems.
With imported parts, the quality is just right, and with domestic parts, the performance is unstable!
Now that the project has just been negotiated and the assembly has not yet begun, it is impossible to start producing such components as the engine crankshaft in-house.
However, Qin Zhenhua said that this is the blank of the engine crankshaft, and he is not wrong, in fact, this is the crankshaft blank of his own Panther diesel engine, which is used by tanks.
Now, hearing Qin Zhenhua say this, Marx frowned.
They are still late, at the beginning, the lion opened his mouth, and now, they have to take the initiative to come to the door, and the huge psychological gap makes it difficult for many people to accept.
However, it is difficult to accept, and then it must be accepted, otherwise, it will completely lose the market in the East, in case they have built a mature car with reverse mapping, then the Mercedes-Benz factory will not get any benefit.
Thinking of this, Marx continued to speak: "So, you are planning to produce Steyr's engines?" ”
"That's right." Qin Zhenhua casually remarked: "Our machine factory originally had a factory specializing in manufacturing engines, as long as there are production drawings, we can produce it, and the full set of drawings of Steyr Automobile is said to have pulled several train wagons." ”
"Steyr's engine, the technology is too backward." "They only have an in-line six-cylinder engine, even if they use supercharged intercooling, it is only more than 200 horsepower, and our OM series engine, even the naturally aspirated OM402, has reached 256 horsepower, and as for the supercharged intercooled engine, it can already reach the maximum power of 430 horsepower." ”
When it comes to Mercedes-Benz's technology, they are very confident, Mercedes-Benz personnel have never looked down on other cars, because in their eyes, there are only two kinds of cars in the world, Mercedes-Benz and other cars!
Mercedes Benz cars, always number one!
"Yes, Steyr's technology is not the most advanced, but it is what we can get, the lowest cost." Qin Zhenhua said: "If we buy 50,000 vehicles first, and then talk about technology transfer, then we can't afford to introduce them." ”
This sentence, the few people present did not look good.
"Mr. Qin, we are here this time with the intention of cooperating." Schultz said on the side: "We know that a new automobile branch has been built here by a machine factory, intending to produce advanced heavy trucks, and we, Mercedes-Benz, are willing to export our latest NG80 car technology." ”
"Don't you have to buy tens of thousands of vehicles first?" Qin Zhenhua asked.
"No, our company has decided to make an exception for the big countries in the East." Schultz said.
The personnel of a machine factory who followed the scene were all happy in their hearts, okay, Mercedes-Benz Automobile Company, finally bowed their heads!
In the past, they were high, and they used to have a complacent face, but now, they are finally in a hurry, and they absolutely can't bear to watch such a major market as a big country in the East completely fall into the hands of Steyr!
Mercedes-Benz Automobile Company, took the initiative to come to the door, and finally gave up the conditions that were previously opened, and was willing to export technology directly!
The president of them came in person, which shows that they have great expectations for this trip!
The quality of Mercedes-Benz heavy trucks, it goes without saying, the world's first, is the world's first, however, the expensive price, the eastern countries can not accept, we only accept the most suitable.
"I'm glad to hear this, it's really impressive, if you had agreed to these conditions, we might have been able to cooperate earlier."
If Mercedes-Benz was full of sincerity at that time, where was Steyr or something! However, that's the way it is.
It's like the introduction of the L7 tank gun back then, if you don't have 100 slips, you have to introduce it, it will be very difficult, and the British will open their mouths!
If you don't have the smooth progress of the Steyr project, Mercedes-Benz will take the initiative to find it? Only if you have it, the other party will be more sincere.
The same is true in later generations, we don't have lithography machines, people don't sell, monopoly, we have 28 nanometers, people are open to sell, through price competition to block us on the road to research and development, once we are fooled, then people do not sell more advanced.
