Chapter 541 Even without me taking action, it’s already the time

This is a critical stage for China Aviation Industry to build a reputation in the world. Therefore, as long as it is a cooperative R&D project that involves China's technical participation and is not simply a co-optation of money, it is worth a try.

Of course, the most basic checks still need to be done.

Otherwise, setting up an official partner of Air Havoc like DC10 or 737max will be totally worth the loss.

Although the "AC139" helicopter in the report is still very crude at first glance, and is still at the stage where the basic design plan has not yet been fully determined, from the renderings, design drafts, and performance indicators, the positioning It should be the AW139 helicopter from the previous life.

However, in the original timeline, AgustaWestland first found Bell Helicopter to cooperate on this model. After failure, it established a joint venture with Westland of the United Kingdom to be responsible for the research and development and upgrade of this model.

However, the British routinely used their talents as troublemakers, and finally forced the Italians to have no choice but to spend a lot of money to directly acquire the already worthless Westland Company, which was considered stable.

Fortunately, all ups and downs are inevitable, but all good things come true. The later AW series helicopters have become benchmark products in the field of civil helicopters around the world, especially in the high-end market.

It must be admitted that Italians know luxury.

Including China's domestic general aviation and police aviation, they have also purchased a large number of this series of products.

Even if you only consider it from this perspective, you will definitely make money if you choose to cooperate.

It costs money anyway, so why not keep some of it in the country.

Of course, in the current timeline, AgustaWestland has reached the target in one step and directly found China Aviation Industry, which is more willing to cooperate, so I am afraid that the two prefixes "AB" and "AW" will never appear.

Just think of it as a ruthless NTR against the British and American father and son.

"As long as the ownership of the project is 50:50, I don't see a problem."

Chang Haonan put the information he had read on the coffee table, thought for a moment, raised his head and replied:

"However, in the Bingfei Group's improved Z-9 project, our group, as Party B, provides technical solutions, which is essentially equivalent to a first-tier supplier."

"If we want to continue to cooperate with AgustaWestland in this way, we may need an import and export qualification to become an international supplier..."

Torch Group’s only previous product was the TORCH Multiphysics software.

Since the current regulations on the software industry are not clear enough, the behavior of "selling computer software abroad" has not yet been defined.

Not to mention qualifications, you don’t even need to pay taxes...

But if you are doing serious import and export business, you still need a license.

Especially if you want to become an international supplier, the approval process is generally quite strict.

Besides, Torch Group is now a serious second-level state-owned enterprise. It was a department-level unit that was well established before the administrative restructuring. It cannot continue to do business on the sidelines.

I just took this opportunity to get the relevant permits.

As a result, Ding Gaoheng had already predicted his prediction:

"I have already contacted the Ministry of Foreign Economic and Trade Cooperation to resolve the issue of import and export qualifications for you."

"what?"

Even Chang Haonan was surprised by this efficiency.

You know, even if you really get the green light all the way, you still have to follow the procedures.

The foreign trade license was obtained without him, the general manager, even showing up?

Seemingly seeing Chang Haonan's doubts, Ding Gaoheng explained:

"The approval has been passed. There are still some written procedures behind it. You may need to sign a few words after a while. In short, there is no problem with this cooperation at the policy and legal levels. As long as you are interested here, you can directly refer to the above Based on the experience of this time, it will be settled soon."

"As for the specific time, it is still up to you. The turbofan 10 and the die forging press are more important. Let Agusta and Bingfei cooperate with your timetable."

Chang Haonan was stunned, and then realized that the Z-9 improved project was too small. Therefore, Ding Gaoheng probably didn't even know what was going on, so he habitually thought it was Chang Haonan's masterpiece.

But in fact he didn't come forward directly at all.

"There's nothing wrong with me here."

Chang Haonan waved his hand:

"The project in Bingcheng is under the responsibility of our group's Numerical Computing Business Department. I only provided some guidance at the beginning. Now that they have done a project themselves and have gained experience, they should be able to handle it independently."

"So as long as the Italians are ready, the project should be started as soon as possible. AgustaWestland has experience in this type of helicopter. If we come up with the noise reduction plan, the progress should be very fast. We can put 6-7 Tons of this level of civilian market have been captured.”

"If possible, we can also strive to obtain mutual recognition of airworthiness for helicopters like regional aircraft."

According to AgustaWestland’s plan, this model of helicopter will use a PT6C-67C engine, which will have some restrictions on military use.

But in the future, the field of civilian helicopters will also be quite vast.

When engaging in industry, the core is to make money first.

Especially in a big industry like aviation, investment is like a bottomless pit.

If you only eat without vomiting for too long, you will inevitably feel pressured by your superiors’ decision-making.

In the past two years, the state's policies and funding for the aviation industry have become increasingly liberal. In addition to the fact that the Science and Technology Commission system has become stronger due to the Boeing-McDonnell Douglas merger, it is also largely because of the convincing achievements it has made. .

Not to mention anything else, just the export of MA-60, the export of key aviation subsystems to Europe, and participation in the A330AIT test aircraft project as a core supplier are enough to silence some eager people.

"Are all your men already so powerful?"

In the past two years, Ding Gaoheng has become accustomed to all kinds of miracles brought by Chang Haonan.

But this time, he obviously didn't expect that the plot would turn out like this.

This is no longer a model effect, but a driving effect!

"Our country's technical personnel are not stupider than others. In the past, it was just because there were not many projects, experience, knowledge, and exposure to advanced concepts."

Chang Haonan naturally cannot boast directly:

“Now that conditions are better and there are more projects, our capabilities will naturally increase.”

"Just wait and see, when the Turbofan 10 project is completed, our country will also have a batch of more such talents in the field of aviation development!"

Although it was a cake painting, Ding Gaoheng could even smell the fragrance of the cake.

Fortunately, he didn't lose his temper because of this:

"Let's not talk about these things that are too far away. Even if you don't have to follow the project personally, you are the general manager of Torch Group after all, so you still have to figure it out when we cooperate."

"Set a nearest time."
