Chapter 571: Breaking the Filter on Japan, Start with You and Me
For the Chinese people of this era, it is indeed difficult to imagine that those developed countries will also have things like data fraud.
Especially under the high-level marketing of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs that has been spending money for more than ten years, the domestic company will more or less add a layer of filters to Japanese companies.
It's like what kind of craftsmanship and so on.
Including after the reform and opening up, many domestic enterprises studied management and management, and most of the learning objects were Japanese companies at the beginning.
After all, from the perspective of the time, the two countries were both East Asian countries and had many cultural ties, and it was easier for Japan to adapt to the experience of Europe, even if it could not be directly copied from the United States.
Of course, gradually some professionals began to find that the situation was not right, and the things they learned were strange and of little use.
But I basically feel that the national conditions are different, and few people think about it at a deeper level.
But as a person who has been reborn, Chang Haonan's thinking is much broader than that of people in this era.
The large-scale fraud of Japanese companies, before his rebirth, was no longer news at all-
Rather, it would be more unusual if there was a Japanese company that had never faked it from the beginning to the end.
Although the situation at the end of the 90s and the 20s of the 21st century certainly cannot be generalized, Chang Haonan does not remember what kind of bad deeds this NSK group has.
But in short, the available evidence has shown that the other party has a high degree of suspicion of fraud.
After all, those fake immortals in the previous life could pull out twenty or thirty years of fraud records when they were found out.
If you do the math, that's exactly what the 90s will begin.
"Those test reports, you should still keep them in Hangzhou Tooth Factory, right?"
After thinking for a moment, Chang Haonan asked.
"Of course, we must keep all these documents, so that there is no confusion about anything in the future."
The other party nodded and replied:
"We can provide you with a copy if you need it, but the original...... According to the rules of the factory, unless there is an express request from the superior or the police, it must be kept in the file. ”
He was obviously worried that Chang Haonan would ask for the original directly when he opened his mouth, so he took a preventive shot first.
"It's okay, it's enough to have a copy, you get in touch as soon as possible and let them send this fax."
Chang Haonan tore off a page from the notebook he carried with him and wrote the fax number of Yang Huimei's office on it.
Although he had been thinking about setting up another department responsible for publicity, Professor Yang became more and more proficient in this area, and he continued to pick up the hair on a sheep.
After all, the other party is also a senior executive of a state-owned enterprise, and he is not an ordinary worker.
There is no psychological burden on squeezing.
"Yes, I'll do it when I go back today!"
……
For most of the others sitting in the car, this was a minor episode at best.
It seems that after Chang Haonan learned about this, he was going to investigate the situation.
In addition, in this round of institutional adjustment, the Ice Axis Group was not included in the management of the Equipment Industry Department, but directly became an ordinary local state-owned enterprise.
Therefore, there is still speculation that Lan Xinzhi or Ding Gaoheng is ready to borrow the hand of President Chang to take advantage of the momentum of the die forging press project to further expand a wave of power.
However, not everyone is looking in the wrong direction.
After today's entire trip, on the car back to the city, Yan Yongnian specially found Chang Haonan.
He is more familiar with the latter, and has also heard that the other party has assisted several special steel companies and bearing gear companies to develop products, so it is easier than others to see some of them.
"Mr. Chang, why do I think the situation doesn't seem right?"
"Last year, I had a few friends from the Bearing Research Institute inadvertently mentioned that our country's bearing industry suddenly entered a small outbreak stage, and specifically named the ice shaft, and came up with several good products in the field of automotive bearings......"
"If the Ice Axis Group uses special means to get someone else's process technology, it is unlikely that it will be shared with great fanfare, so as to drive a whole industry forward, right?"
He did not directly mention Chang Haonan's name in the question.
After all, leaders may sometimes want to keep some mystery alive.
In this case, could it be a complete coincidence? The two companies have developed a process technology that is very close to each other, and then they happen to be very close in the performance of a certain batch of products? ”
Liao Xinhua's tone was questioning, obviously thinking that this possibility was not high.
Performance characteristics are a bit like human fingerprints, and while it is theoretically possible that they may be the same, in practice the probability is completely negligible.
"Of course, it can't be a coincidence."
Chang Haonan waved his hand, straightened the seat he had just put down, and the person sat up:
"But have you ever thought of another possibility?"
Yan Yongnian and Liao Xinhua looked at each other, and after thinking for a moment, they shook their heads almost simultaneously.
Human cognition will not exceed the era in which it lives.
It's normal for two people to react like this.
"The difference in performance between the products produced by the two companies is smaller than that between different batches of products of the same company under normal circumstances, and even the Hangzhou Tooth Factory can think that the string will not affect the stability of the work, even if the same process is used, it is not realistic at all."
"If the results on the test report are really as they just said, it means that these bearings are not only made with the same production technology, but even on the same assembly line!"
Chang Haonan said at the end, and tapped lightly on the small table in front of him to show the point.
"Meaning...... OEM? ”
Liao Xinhua, who has been engaged in business management for a long time, is more familiar with these things, and immediately blurted out:
"That's the Ice Axis Group from ......"
Halfway through the answer that subconsciously popped out of his mind, he realized that something was wrong.
"That's not right...... The person just said that the products of the ice shaft are cheaper, and the supply is still very large, and it is impossible to achieve low cost and high shipment volume at the same time......"
"That means ......"
Yan Yongnian and Liao Xinhua gasped together:
"Is it possible that the other way around, NSK Group buys the products of the Ice Axis Group in bulk and then sells them under its own trademark?"
Chang Haonan nodded:
"It's not that it's possible, but it's probable."
"This ......"
Although they may have come up with this on their own, the moment Chang Haonan nodded, the two of them still had a feeling of disbelief.
It's even a bit of a worldview collapse.
The image of Japanese products has been established in China through various methods since the early days of reform and opening up.
In the past decade or so, there has been almost no large-scale challenge.
It is generally believed that although there is still a gap compared with the top European products, it is basically a perfect balance in terms of price, performance and service.
On the side of the Chinese market, it is generally definitely divided into the ranks of high-end goods.
However, just today, there is a naked reality that tells them that there is a Japanese company that is well-known in the industry, and directly sells domestic goods under OEM......
According to the law of a thousand cockroaches, it is absolutely impossible for them to use OEM products just on this one supply agreement.
However, it has not been detected until now.
"In other words, the products of our Bingcheng Bearing Group, in terms of performance, are actually not worse than NSK's original goods?"
Yan Yongnian quickly figured out the joints:
"Otherwise, the use of OEM to charge the number must have been discovered a long time ago."
"It's not bad."
Chang Haonan shook his finger gently:
"The materials and processes used in these recent products are the solutions provided by our Torch Group."
"I can't guarantee those century-old big factories in Europe, after all, they have a rich background, and they may be able to find out what treasures from the old paper piles in the past, but Japanese and Korean companies will never be able to produce the same level of technology in a short period of time."
"They choose to sell goods on an OEM basis, not because of a simple cost problem, but because they can't make it!"
