With the craze for natural gas power generation in the Americans, Siemens immediately observed this new industry keenly, and they finally regretted their disdain for the project, but by this time it was too late, and the Chinese engineering team in charge of the gas turbine project resigned en masse, and all of them jumped to the new machine shipyard in Shanghai to start developing the subsequent application of gas turbines. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Although these people left a full set of technical information, Siemens' various supporting factories and cooperative enterprises have also successfully produced the first practical gas turbine before, which means that Siemens is the only company in the world that has applied gas turbine technology, but the loss of the entire technical team is difficult for them to bear, and Siemens chose to file a lawsuit.

Siemens sued the gas turbine team, arguing that they infringed Siemens' patent rights by using Siemens' technology for subsequent research and development, even if the technology was developed by their team, but the patented technology was not theirs.

But this lawsuit is very complicated, because this technology is not unique to Siemens, Siemens only has the right to use and the right to follow-up research and development, and the real ownership right belongs to Yangzi Labs and belongs to Yang Chao.

As soon as the lawsuit was fought, everyone knew that this matter was related to Yang Chao.

Yang Chao also learned about these things through the lawsuit, where did he get these things, he always thought that Ximen was developing, where did he think that Siemens' gas turbine team turned out to be Chinese, and all of them jumped ship.

After the lawsuit started, both sides insisted on their own words, not only brought out Yang Chao, but also brought out the inside story of racial discrimination within Siemens, the Chinese were angry, you German devil's company, make money in China, but also discriminate against the Chinese, your grandmother has a leg, this can not be tolerated, absolutely unbearable.

A large number of electrical appliance companies in Shanghai immediately began to publicize and boycott Siemens.

But Siemens said that China should not treat Siemens as a purely German company, because China's Yangzi consortium holds 40 percent of Siemens' shares, and Siemens is half Chinese and should be regarded as a Chinese company.

As a result, Siemens's statement suddenly pushed Yang Chao to the forefront, and for a while, some people even threw out Yang Chao's heart-wrenching remarks that he liked to cooperate with foreigners too much and oppressed Chinese local enterprises, which was related to Yang Chao's reputation.

Yang Chao said with a smile, let those boys come to see him.

He really didn't expect that a few Chinese technicians would make such a big wave by mistake.

Xu Yuanqi didn't expect his resignation to cause such a big wave, he didn't expect to involve a big man like Yang Chao, but as a technician, he did ignore the issue of intellectual property rights, he never cared about these, he only cared about research and development before, never considered management.

Zhu Binhou of Qiuxin Machinery Factory is also a rough man, and he has little experience in business, so he is numb in this regard.

However, he had deep connections, and soon found various connections, and handed the words to Yang Chao, saying that Qiuxin Machinery Factory was willing to buy this patent for their people to continue research and development.

Yang Chao didn't take care of the goods, and directly called Xu Yuanqi to Qingdao.

I was very happy to see Xu Yuanqi and Yang Chao, this is a baby, an expert in the field of gas turbine technology, a Chinese expert.

Xu Yuanqi was still a little nervous, and in a question and answer, he made a report to Yang Chao on his recent work.

"Can that thing fit on an airplane?"

Despises Yang Chao, a liberal arts dog, he really doesn't know that when a gas turbine is installed on an airplane, you are a jet engine, just like a steam turbine is used to generate electricity in a power plant, and it is used to drive propellers on a ship.

Xu Yuanqi told Yang Chao that his team has now launched research and development in two directions, with him leading the research and development of marine gas turbines, and his deputy Ma Xiongguan being responsible for the research and development of aircraft gas engines.

The reason for this distribution is that Xu Yuanqi is very unconfident, he is worried that the investment in the new machine shipyard will be wasted, because even if the aircraft jet engine is successfully developed, it may not be able to make money, and the marine can always have a market, so the marine can bring benefits, in order not to let the new machine shipyard go bankrupt, Xu Yuanqi personally grasped the research and development of the marine type.

Speaking of this, Xu Yuanqi himself couldn't help but sigh, in the past, in Siemens, he was only responsible for research and development, and he didn't need to consider operation and risk at all, and he only knew that not every one of Siemens' technologies could be profitable, and even more than half of the technologies were useless.

"Good, good! Continue to research, Yang Zi Laboratory can allocate 3 million taels to you for continuous research and development. In addition to the development of marine engines and aircraft engines, we will continue to develop power generation. ”

Yang Chao is very optimistic about this.

But Xu Yuanqi was a little hesitant: "But I have already joined the new machine shipyard." ”

He thinks that it is unkind to leave the shipyard of Qiuxin Machinery and switch to Yang Zi Laboratory at this time.

Yang Chao said with a smile: "Don't worry, you can continue to stay in the new machinery factory, Zhu Bin waits for this kid, and he is quite bold in doing things." It can be regarded as the cooperation between Yangzi Laboratory and Qiuxin Machinery Factory. By cooperating with Yangzi Laboratory, you don't have to worry about technical patents, and they will naturally authorize you. ”

Xu Yuanqi was a little relieved, but then sighed: "I'm afraid that our talents can't support the research of such a big project at all, we are actually the most suitable for the research and development of a technology, and we are afraid of failure, so we are reluctantly divided into two groups." If we continue to work on power generation projects, not to mention the lack of technical strength, I am afraid that we will not be able to compete with Siemens at all. ”

Now, he directly put his competitors on giants like Siemens.

Yang Chao smiled: "Don't worry. The question of technical strength, can you recruit, Chinese, Japanese, Americans, Germans, Italians, as long as you feel suitable, you can recruit globally, enlarge your mind, as long as your heart is big enough, the intellectual resources of the world can be used by you. ”

Xu Yuanqi couldn't help but beat his heart, isn't this the model of Siemens, and he was still quite excited when he thought that he could do things like Siemens.

Yang Chao said again: "But to compete with Siemens, just understand technology, can research is not enough, there is still a long way to go." Since you have the ambition to compete with Siemens, then I'm here to help you. While gas turbine technology is well known, then strike while the iron is hot and simply form a super company. I will invite all the electrical companies in Shanghai to invest together, combine the business channels, financial strength, and technical strength of all companies, and concentrate on building a large group that can compete with Siemens. ”

Xu Yuanqi's breathing was a little short, and what made him even more anxious was that Yang Chao's eyes were staring at his eyes tightly, staring at him breathlessly.

"And you're the head of this big group!"

After Yang Chao finished speaking, Xu Yuanqi's heart beat violently, his face blushed to his neck, not shy, but excited, he was almost enthusiastic.

Yang Chao's initiative was soon supported by a group of electrical appliance manufacturers in Shanghai, and now Southwest Hydropower has reached the end of construction and entered the intensive equipment installation stage, these companies have successfully absorbed the technology transferred by General Electric and Westinghouse Electric in the United States through the purchase of equipment and recruitment of talents, and produced a quarter of the equipment for Southwest Hydropower.

Not only has their technical capabilities improved a lot, and they have reached the world's advanced level in hardware, but they have also cultivated a large group of high-end electrical appliance manufacturing talents, each of which has a technical force that cannot be underestimated, but the disadvantage is that it is too scattered, and it is impossible to compete with giants such as Siemens and General Electric.

Yang Chao has long had the intention to integrate them, and taking advantage of this gas turbine controversy, it is better to complete the integration of the electrical industry.

The manufacture of this kind of large-scale power equipment belongs to the highest end and the highest profits, but the output will not be high, and it is impossible to accommodate hundreds of companies, and the market capacity of the United States has only produced the two giants of General Electric and Westinghouse, and only a few companies in Europe, such as Germany and France, can produce it, and even the British can't make one.

Therefore, Yang Chao believes that China only needs two companies, one is Siemens, which owns 40% of the shares, and the other is to be united by Shanghai, which is a rising power company.

Some of them plan to develop small hydropower equipment to provide equipment for small hydropower in Guizhou, Guangxi, Hunan and other places, some of them plan to develop other directions, such as shipbuilding, and some also plan to build their own power plants.

At this time, Yang Chao provided them with a direction, which immediately aroused their strong interest, doing business with Yang Chao, it seems that they can make money, Yang Chao is a golden signboard, plus in the hot speculation, they suddenly found that natural gas power generation seems to have a future, otherwise Siemens would not have a lawsuit for this, and Yang Chao was involved.

Li Sidi told them Yang Chao's idea and told them that Yangzi Bank would use 1 million taels of capital plus all the technical authorization to buy shares, accounting for 40% of the shares of the new company, and the remaining 60% were subscribed by the Shanghai power equipment company, and the total share capital is currently calculated at 10 million taels.

This number makes these guys who have just broken out once can't help but gasp, Yang Chao's 1 million taels plus technology occupies forty percent of the shares, then the remaining 9 million taels are only sixty percent of the shares, which means that the valuation of this company is 15 million taels, which is a super large company.

But for these companies, it is not impossible to bear, the equipment procurement amount of the southwest hydropower project has reached 5 billion, and they have divided about 1.5 billion, and the profit alone is 500 million, so that they can eat a circle, and jointly invest in the formation of a company with a valuation of 15 million taels It can still be done.

What surprised them was that Yang Chao was so optimistic about the development prospects of gas turbines, doesn't this mean that when Xu Yuanqi came to them with technology, most of them were blindsided.

They agreed, and soon a company called United Power was registered in Shanghai with a registered capital of 10 million taels, and the name means that it is a union of all the large power equipment factories in Shanghai.

At this time, no one knew that this company would become Siemens' most formidable competitor within a few years, especially in the field of gas turbines, and become one of the two giants of the world together with Siemens. (To be continued.) )
