Chapter 662: What a chemical giant, I'm still not afraid of you

Siemens' influence in the field of wind power equipment is not comparable to that of Vestas.

However, Siemens' comprehensive strength in the field of equipment is definitely far superior to Vestas.

Therefore, if Siemens wants to inquire about some news, there are many more channels than Vestas.

After communicating with Anderson, Scott also wanted to know which equipment manufacturer had snatched Vestas' order.

This will definitely have some reference significance for Siemens to participate in the bidding of other projects in the future.

After a few phone calls, Scott quickly figured out the situation.

"What?"

"You said that Modu Electric won this order?"

"Impossible!"

"Their wind power bearings are purchased from Nanshan Group like ours, but their blade procurement costs are higher than ours."

"The most important thing is that they should be the first time they have been involved in this kind of large, environmentally friendly blades, and they are not competitive."

It was obviously difficult for Anderson to accept that his lost orders were snatched away by local manufacturers in China.

Isn't that a slap in the face?

"It is said that the cost of wind power equipment of Modu Electric is at least ten points lower than yours, and their wind turbine blades are still a combination of PET foam and carbon fiber."

"This blade is lightweight, the material is more environmentally friendly, and the performance is better."

"That's why people were able to snatch orders that you thought were certain."

"Anderson, in the field of bidding in China, as long as the results are not announced, there is no such thing as a certainty."

"This time, you should take it as a lesson."

Although Scott knew about the technological progress of Modu Electric, he was not in a very good mood.

But with the unlucky guy Vestas as a foil, his mood was a little better.

So he can easily say some so-called comforting words.

It's just that Anderson probably didn't listen to a word of comforting words.

"Scott, I heard that Siemens also plans to build a wind turbine factory in China in the future, and the market here is very worth looking forward to."

"In this case, the rise of local equipment manufacturers in China is definitely bad news for us."

"We need to figure out what kind of plan they are taking to snatch orders from us."

Anderson felt that this time he would work with Siemens to find out the situation.

Otherwise, the future will be even more difficult.

"Indeed, the equipment manufacturers in Huaxia are now becoming more and more difficult to deal with."

"Now the wind power equipment is mainly for the domestic market in China, and I am worried that the next step will soon be for the export market."

"When the time comes, it will definitely have a big impact on us."

"We've got to find a way to change that."

The two brothers began to communicate.

However, they don't need to do the relevant investigation information, and Modu Electric itself began to publicize it.

After all, after using a new generation of wind turbine blades and redesigning other parts, this model of wind power equipment is already the fist product of Modu Equipment in the field of wind power.

As a state-owned enterprise, it still produces products with non-confidential equipment, and Modu Electric will naturally not give up a good opportunity for publicity.

Therefore, soon, various equipment manufacturers also knew about the technological progress of the wind turbine blades of Modu Electric.

And this change has also made more manufacturers feel a hint of threat.

……

The application of PET structural foam board in wind turbine blades is definitely a cutting-edge topic in the field of wind power equipment.

At present, this material is mainly produced on a small scale by a few manufacturers such as Mitsubishi Chemical and BASF, and has not yet been fully developed.

But everyone is quite optimistic about the market for this new environmentally friendly material.

After all, the market for a single wind turbine blade is not small, not to mention that there is also a demand for this material in many other fields.

The most important thing is that before using PET foam, everyone uses PVC foam, which is one of the main products of BASF.

Now, according to the information advertised by Modu Electric, people not only directly revolutionized the life of PVC foam from BASF and other manufacturers, but also grabbed the future PET foam market.

This kind of information must be taken very seriously by BASF.

"Mr. Liang, we inquired and basically figured out the situation."

"The latest wind turbine blades of Modu Electric's wind power equipment are purchased from Nanshan Carbon Fiber's wind turbine blade factory."

"The PET foam used on this leaf is produced by Nanshan Chemical."

As the sales director of BASF Huaxia, Li Daxiong's ability to inquire about news is still very strong.

It's just that according to the official news announced by Modu Electric, he quickly used his connections to figure out the specific situation.

"Nanshan Chemical?"

"Why don't I have an impression of this company?"

As the general manager of BASF Huaxia, Liang Fuxing is also a high-ranking person, and the people he usually comes into contact with, whether it is a corporate or a government department, are relatively high-level.

For example, Nanshan Chemical, a company that has no special achievements in the industry, it is normal that he has not heard of it.

After all, BASF is a global giant in the chemical industry, and it is disdainful of general material manufacturers.

"This is a subsidiary of Nanshan Group, and the main business was digested within Nanshan Group before, and the scale is not very large, so it is normal that Mr. Liang has not heard of it."

"However, Nanshan Group is a very special existence in China, and their carbon fiber technology is at the world's leading level, breaking the monopoly of companies such as Dongying Toray and Hearst in the United States."

"Then they also have extraordinary achievements in the field of special steel, high-speed rail bearings and axles are produced by Nanshan Group, and even the production of aircraft carrier steel plates has the shadow of Nanshan special steel."

"So although this Nanshan Chemical is not well-known in the industry, and the scale is not very large, I think the company needs to pay full attention to it."

Li Daxiong is obviously quite clear about the situation in all aspects.

As a native of Huaxia, he is too aware of the influence of Nanshan Group in Huaxia.

In the past, BASF had no competition with Nanshan Group, and even BASF was a secondary supplier of Nanshan Group, and some of the coatings on Xingchen Automobile were produced by BASF.

But now that Nanshan Chemical has begun to make efforts in high-performance resin materials, Li Daxiong feels that it is necessary to pay full attention to it.

This is because this market is the main market for BASF's high-end products.

Don't look at the annual sales volume, high-performance resin materials are far less than ordinary resin materials, but the profits contributed are a lot.

Even the materials in this field don't need you to sell them, and the customers themselves will come to you.

In the past, various chemical giants were reluctant to localize the production of this type of material in Huaxia.

So don't look at the material giants such as BASF and PPG in recent years, they have successively built factories in China.

However, the materials produced by these factories are relatively ordinary materials, and there are absolutely no high-performance materials.

"Nanshan Chemical's scale is not large now, do you think it is possible for us to simply acquire it?"

Liang Fuxing immediately proposed a very creative plan.

As the general manager of BASF Huaxia, he also knows some information about the headquarters.

BASF attaches great importance to PET foam.

At the headquarters, we are talking to a European manufacturer specializing in the production of PET foam and discussing the acquisition.

If the Huaxia branch can get this material technology at a smaller cost, and even use this acquisition to directly monopolize the market of Huaxia's high-end PET foam, it will definitely be a very good achievement.

Liang Fuxing's year-end bonus is estimated to be a lot more.

However, his abacus is very good, but Li Daxiong has no confidence at all.

"Mr. Liang, up to now, any branch of Nanshan Group has not been sold."

"In the past, they bought other companies, and they wouldn't sell them easily."

"Of course, it's not impossible for us to give it a try."

Li Daxiong euphemistically expressed his opinion.

He was not optimistic about the acquisition at all.

"Didn't Lingnan Province always want us to build a large chemical plant there?"

"If we make good use of this information, is it possible to promote the acquisition of Nanshan Chemical by Lingnan Province?"

Using local forces to achieve some of BASF's ideas, Liang Fuxing has not used this way of doing things in the past.

Not only have I used it, but it works very well.

Sometimes, BASF just expressed its ideas appropriately, and the local government helped to get the relevant things done.

This time, with the acquisition of Nanshan Chemical, he felt that there should not be a big problem.

After all, compared to BASF's investment of tens of billions, the acquisition of a chemical company with no sense of existence should be nothing, right?

"If it were a different company, maybe that would be a viable option."

"But Nanshan Chemical is a subsidiary of Nanshan Group, and it is estimated that Lingnan Province will not easily put pressure on the other party."

"Of course, there's nothing wrong with touching it."

Li Daxiong vaguely felt that something bad might happen, but he couldn't say much.

After all, Liang Fuxing's proposal is advancing in a direction that is beneficial to the company.

He had no reason to object.

These actions of BASF Huaxia were quickly passed on to Cao Yang's side.

"Mr. Cao, BASF suddenly contacted me in some way to discuss the acquisition of Nanshan Chemical with us."

"I think it's a bit inexplicable."

"So I just refused."

BASF is an industry giant, and people proposed to acquire Nanshan Chemical, and Lai Yuanhong must have mentioned this matter to Cao Yang.

Otherwise, if you make any important decisions wrong, the cost of recovering them later will be relatively large.

Lai Yuanhong still has this root.

"BASF moves so fast?"

"Nanshan Chemical's recent achievements are PET foam, right?"

Although BASF is an industry giant, the size of Nanshan Group is not small.

In Huaxia, Cao Yang is really not afraid of it.

Even if some of the materials of Nanshan Group are supplied by BASF, there is nothing to worry about.

Those are basically irreplaceable products.

"Yes, but in the communication with me, the other party did not mention PET foam, but said that BASF felt that after Nanshan Chemical was integrated into BASF's system, the future development prospects would be broader."

"In particular, we don't have a basic chemical material production plant, but only do research and development of modified resin materials."

"This kind of positioning can be combined with BASF, which can have the effect that one plus one is greater than two."

Lai Yuanhong actually guessed that BASF's actions were related to PET foam.

However, the person who contacted him on the other party hid it and did not break the words.

In the end, it will certainly not be so easy to agree.

Even BASF didn't want the people at Nanshan Chemical to know that they valued PET foam technology.

"The last time I listened to Nanshan Carbon Fiber's report on wind turbine blades, I mentioned that the current blade material and core material are mainly PVC foam materials."

"This material is imported from German BASF, and the price is not cheap."

"Now that we have developed PET foam that is more environmentally friendly and cost-effective than PVC foam, it will definitely have some negative impact on BASF."

"Although BASF is strong in the field of materials, not every material is involved."

"Now I want to take advantage of the fact that Nanshan Chemical has not yet developed and grown, on the one hand, I can improve my layout, and on the other hand, I can eliminate a potential opponent."

"They're doing a good job."

Cao Yang will definitely not let BASF buy Nanshan Chemical.

Are you kidding!

The purpose of establishing Nanshan Chemical is to promote the localization of various special materials, so as not to be stuck in the future.

Now is it difficult to give the neck to someone else's card?

"The next time they contact me, I won't bother to talk to them."

After figuring out Cao Yang's position, Lai Yuanhong also knew it.

No matter how good you BASF is, it has nothing to do with me.

I just ignore you!

However, soon, BASF did not give up and went around in circles to find Cao Yang.

"Mr. Cao, I heard that the investment promotion department in the province asked you to communicate about BASF's acquisition of Nanshan Chemical, are you preparing to sell Nanshan Chemical?"

Liu Tianwu's news is also very well-informed, and after a preliminary understanding, he called Cao Yang directly.

As a star enterprise in Yangcheng, he must express his support for Nanshan Group at a critical moment.

"There is this thing, but Nanshan Chemical is a very important link in the industrial chain of Nanshan Group, and it is also an important link in the localization of materials in the future, and we have no intention of selling Nanshan Chemical."

Regardless of whether Liu Tianwu called this time to support himself or to be a lobbyist for others, Cao Yang did not have any intention of compromising.

So he expressed his meaning straightforwardly.

"If you don't have that in mind, then just stick to your principles and don't need to worry too much."

"Whether it's the relevant personnel from the brother city putting pressure on you, or the contact from Lingnan Province, or the contact with the ministries and commissions, you can go back."

"Nanshan Chemical's development is good, and it does not need BASF's acquisition."

Liu Tianwu is very smart, and naturally he can feel Cao Yang's emotional changes, so he clearly expressed his meaning.

BASF's project is a large chemical project, which is destined to be impossible to be placed in Yangcheng.

Therefore, Liu Tianwu does not have any pressure and can firmly stand on the side of Nanshan Group.

If the big chemical project is in Yangcheng, then the situation will be different.

For example, companies such as Intel or Samsung want to invest tens of billions of yuan to build a chip factory in Yangcheng, and in that case, in the face of other people's special requirements, Liu Tianwu has to consider communicating and coordinating.

Even if he has a good relationship with Nanshan Group, he has to fully consider the opinions of all parties when facing a large project of tens of billions.

Otherwise, there will be a lot of right and wrong.

"Thanks to the support of the leadership, our position has always been very clear."

"Nanshan Chemical has also launched a lot of projects now, leaders you can also come to visit when you have time, maybe in the future Nanshan Chemical can also bring unexpected surprises to the development of Yangcheng chemical industry."

As soon as Cao Yang said this, Liu Tianwu was really interested.

Over the years, everything Cao Yang wanted to do has been successful.

Cao Yang brags about cowhide, and it also proves that it is not cowhide.

Now he dares to say that Nanshan Chemical will bring surprises to him in the future, then there will definitely be surprises.

It has to be said that confidence is built step by step.

"Then I really want to take a good look, I have basically visited all the factories of Nanshan Group, and I am just Nanshan Chemical."

The two continued to make small talk for a while before ending the call.

……

"Mr. Liang, Nanshan Group doesn't have any intention of selling Nanshan Chemical, and Yangcheng doesn't support us to put pressure on Nanshan Group, or we can forget it?"

Li Daxiong knows that although BASF is very powerful in the world, its influence in China is definitely not comparable to that of Nanshan Group.

If the relationship is very stiff because of the acquisition of Nanshan Chemical, in case Nanshan Group also sends its own relationship to wear small shoes for BASF, then it will definitely be BASF who will be unlucky in the end.

Li Daxiong is very sure of this.

"The point is that I've already reported this matter to the headquarters, and if I stop moving now, it's a bit difficult to do."

Liang Fuxing now also knows that Nanshan Group is not so easy to do.

But it's a bit hard to ride.

"If we continue to talk, it may be more difficult to end, and if it doesn't work, we will delay it for a while and report to the headquarters again."

Li Daxiong and Liang Fuxing are still talking about the acquisition of Nanshan Chemical, but they don't know that because of this acquisition, they have already caused trouble.

felt that Cao Yang, who took the initiative to provoke BASF, couldn't let go of Cao Yang, so he made an appointment with Pan Jun to chat about BASF's Huaxia want to acquire Nanshan Chemical.

When he said this, Pan Jun immediately exploded!

Nanshan Chemical!

People outside don't know its importance, can he not know it?

That's the supplier of stealth materials for the new generation of stealth fighters!

Or the exclusive kind!

BASF actually wants to acquire such a company?

Is it because some people already know some things related to Huaxia stealth materials?

So you want to spy on intelligence through this action?

Or do you want to indirectly understand the information of stealth materials through the acquisition of Nanshan Chemical?

No matter which one it is, it is worthy of Pan Jun's attention!

"Mr. Cao, I will report this matter to the security department, and let them investigate it carefully to see if there is any special reason behind it."

"Nanshan Chemical will never allow any foreign capital to get involved, and the information of our stealth materials cannot be leaked."

Pan Jun emphasized it very seriously.

As a representative, he is naturally very aware of the importance of stealth materials.

Whether the new generation of fighters can be successfully promoted to the world's first-class fighters, stealth performance is one of the most important indicators.

This is a major event related to the safety of the Chinese sky in the future.

Can't be too careful!

"Representative Pan, there is another matter, which I think is also a bit strange, and I may need to report it to you as well."

Cao Yang is not such a generous person.

In the past few days, some people have called Lai Yuanhong, and some people have called themselves.

It can be said that BASF has made a lot of connections.

Although they were rejected in the end, people did not necessarily dare to embarrass Nanshan Group on the surface.

But to make an example of killing chickens and monkeys, Cao Yang felt that these hands that stretched out their claws towards the Nanshan Group had to be cut off.

Nanshan Group is now a super big piece of fat, and some people can't help but want to take a bite.

In this case, it is necessary to let more people know the truth that if you stretch out your hand, you will be cut down.

Cao Yang will arrange the research and development of some military products, to a certain extent, to make Nanshan Group more special, so as to deal with some special problems.

After all, once it comes to military products, any change in shares must be more sensitive.

Some people want to start, and they will have more scruples in their hearts.

"Mr. Cao, is there anything else?"

When Pan Jun saw Cao Yang's appearance, he immediately raised his vigilance in his heart.

There's something going to happen.

"During this time, in order to persuade us to agree to sell Nanshan Chemical to BASF, many people called me."

"I don't really understand why those people want Nanshan Chemical to become a subsidiary of BASF, is it possible to achieve it because BASF is a foreign-funded company?"

"The enterprises of Nanshan Group attach great importance to technology research and development, and they have some core technologies in their hands, which many people know."

"But in this case, they still called, and what is the purpose behind this, I think you may need to pay attention to it."

As soon as Cao Yang said this, those who contribute to BASF, whether it is for official or private affairs, will definitely be unlucky.

Although this will offend some people, where can you not offend people when you do things?

Unless Cao Yang is willing to give up the Nanshan Group, otherwise he will continue to offend people!
