Chapter 482: Consult Mr. Chang for his opinion

After all, they are supervisors with a technical background, and their future job prospects are also involved, so the two people naturally moved very quickly.

At noon the next day, an official letter written in Chinese and English was delivered to the desktop of Ren Bingda, deputy general manager of Haojing Aero Engine Group Company (actually the main unit of Factory 430).

The official documents written by the British are naturally quite long and full of long and difficult sentences that are not easy to understand even if they are translated.

However, after reading the first few lines of content, the expression on Ren Bingda's face quickly changed from impatience to joy.

After watching it from beginning to end, he seemed to be still a little bit unsatisfied, so he went back and watched it a second time.

Such behavior naturally aroused the curiosity of the other person sitting on the sofa next to him.

"Old Ren, what are you looking at? It's turned over."

Gao Ning, deputy director of the production department of 430 Factory.

Since Zhang Zhenhua has been stationed in Shengjing a few months ago, he is currently mainly responsible for the production tasks of the entire factory.

Of course, there is actually nothing easy to produce right now...

"Good stuff..."

The index finger of Ren Bingda's right hand flicked the edge of the page a few times, making a crisp clicking sound:

"I never imagined that Luoluo Company would take the initiative to negotiate terms with us..."

Gao Ning, who had just picked up a cup of tea, paused and hung his hand in the air:

"Negotiate terms? What terms?"

"Of course it's the price, oh, and the timetable for technology transfer."

Ren Bingda said as he put the documents back on the table with a proud expression.

As the leader in charge of daily business docking with Ciro Company, he can naturally read the meaning of the other party from the British writing habits.

"Finalize the component procurement plan for next year as soon as possible and update the specific content in the technology transfer list."

Isn't it just that the year is coming to an end, and China still hasn't shown the need for additional orders, so it's urgent.

"Ah……"

Gao Ning took a sip of tea and shook his head gently:

"What were you doing earlier? I just think about it now and worry...it's too late..."

He and Ren Bingda had dealt with the British in the past two years, and they had suffered countless sullen experiences.

Most of the time, it's either someone else's intentional behavior or the condescension that is inadvertently revealed during normal communication, which makes people even more irritated.

Regarding the Spey engine business, the profit margin is quite terrifying.

Especially finished parts.

After all, to the British, these things are just some items in the inventory that are almost useless. If there was no such thing as Ciro Company, they would probably be prepared to be destroyed.

Therefore, Adam and George have a considerable say in pricing.

Anyway, no matter how much you earn, you will make money.

They have refused to lower prices before because they grasped China's urgent need for the localization of Sibei.

You don’t have a choice anyway, even if you ask for a higher price, you can still do business.

This idea was indeed correct when we negotiated the establishment of Ciro Company two years ago, and China did accept it.

But now...

Times have changed, my lord.

"But, then again."

After all, Ren Bingda was not a newbie. After the excitement of the situation was over, he quickly calmed down and started thinking about business:

"We really need to think about the future positioning of our Xiluo company."

"Positioning problem?"

Gao Ning was stunned for a moment:

"Yesterday afternoon, I called Minister Zhang. He said that if nothing unexpected happens, the complete localization of the turbofan 9 improved engine will be achieved by the middle of next year."

"I think the historical mission of Siro Company is about to come to an end, right?"

He started out as a skilled worker and later went to the Workers', Peasants and Soldiers University as a cadre. His sensitivity in company management is indeed much different.

"Ciro Company was indeed set up to promote the localization of Sibei."

Ren Bingda took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and took out two, but Gao Ning said that he was quitting smoking, so he had to put one of them into his mouth, struck a match and lit it, and continued:

"Although we no longer need to count on the British for this model of Spey, it would still be a pity if this table was just thrown away."

Gao Ning, who was sitting on the sofa, was already in the process of quitting smoking. When he saw someone smoking, he found it difficult to control himself. He drank tea more frequently while talking:

"If you don't want to throw it away, then use it to train young students."

"Some time ago, in order to participate in the Taihang project, you withdrew the experienced old guys from Xiro Company and replaced them with dozens of young people who had just joined the company a few years ago. Didn't you also have this idea?"

Ren Bingda was not embarrassed when his purpose was revealed:

"Hey, let's squeeze out the surplus value of capitalism..."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and waved it gently to disperse the smoke that was lingering in front of him:

"However, the two British people obviously felt something was wrong. Isn't that why they sent us this letter?"

"Let me tell you, if it's bad, it's bad. Anyway, the money we invested in this Siro company is not too much. Now that the strong man has cut off his wrist, the loss will be less."

Gao Ning still meant to cut directly.

But Ren Bingda waved his hand:

"After all, Rolls-Royce is one of the three largest aero-engine manufacturers in the world and plays a pivotal role in the entire aerospace manufacturing field."

"Although Xiluo Company is small in scale, the business scope it was approved for was very wide. It is a bridge between us and Rolls-Royce. If possible, I still hope to keep it, even if it temporarily raises a few useless British ones. People are worthy too.”

In fact, if it had been last year, Ren Bingda's thoughts would not be any different from Gao Ning's.

But this year, he received a huge stimulus from his neighbor, the Haojing Aircraft Industry Group.

Originally, everyone's level was about the same level. Let's not talk about food. Anyway, we could barely get enough food and clothing, and hug each other to keep warm.

But due to a wave of cool operations at the beginning of the year, Haofei took off immediately.

MA-60 has obtained airworthiness qualifications from both Europe and the United States through the Mutual Recognition of Airworthiness Agreement, and has signed a contract with Bangkok Airways, achieving a wave of export earnings.

What's even more awesome is that they also sent technicians to France to work with Airbus to transform two A330 passenger planes into A330AIT icing water sprayers specially used for simulated icing experiments.

In the past, China hired technical personnel from Europe and the United States at high prices to guide its business. Who would have thought that it would suddenly have the opportunity to make a comeback?

This is something worth writing about.

In comparison, the Haojing Aero Engine Group, also located in Haojing, pales in comparison.

Naturally, Ren Bingda was not content with this.

That’s why I thought of stabilizing the Siro Company first. When I have the opportunity in the future, I can also have a serious technical cooperation with the British, and even reverse export!

In addition, doing so will also help maintain their position in the field of aerodynamics.

Considering that the two super large projects of Turbojet 14 and Turbofan 10 were both settled in Shengjing, anyone with a discerning eye can see that other domestic aerospace development and research units will definitely be outclassed in terms of technical strength.

But if Hojing can pave the way for international cooperation with Luo Luo in advance...

At least I still have some say in the channel.

Of course, it’s definitely not easy to talk about this little idea in public.

"What should I do?"

Gao Ning put the empty cup back on the table:

"I heard Minister Zhang say yesterday that the 606A turbofan produced by the 9 Institute has changed many of the original designs of the Spey MK202. Even if we want to continue to pay for this, the British cannot supply it. ."

Ren Bingda nodded and put out the cigarette butt with some distress:

"Of course I know this, so my initial idea is to see if there is anything that we need and the British are willing to let go of, at least to maintain the business first..."

In this regard, Gao Ning is even less likely to have any clue.

After thinking in vain for a long time, he decided to give up:

"I think, why don't we talk to Minister Zhang about this and let him seek Mr. Chang's opinion?"
