Chapter 559: A State-Owned Enterprise That Is Not Enterprising
The person who has never spoken is not simple. He is actually the director of the Jinling Electronic Technology Research Institute. Although his name is inconspicuous, he has a well-known number within the system: 14!
Those who specialize in radar are saying that they are the radar research institutions with the strongest technical strength in my country. No one has any questions. They are no.1 of domestic radar technology!
The boss of an aviation engine manufacturing unit, the head of a military aircraft production unit, and the director of a radar research institute with the strongest technical strength in China, Lin Zheng kept beating the drum in his heart: Why are these people looking for themselves?
He didn't believe that these people really made friends just to find themselves to have dinner with them.
Sure enough, after some cups and cups, Director Liu Jianming of the 14th Institute seemed to have spoken casually: "Mr. Lin, I heard that your group is building an aerial camera?"
It turned out to be for this? Lin Zheng suddenly realized in his heart! He shook his head and smiled: "It's not our group, it's me and a friend in the advertising industry..."
Since the other party was interested in aerial cameras, Lin Zheng naturally would not hide anything. He talked about the key points of why he suddenly thought about making an aerial camera, current progress and technical difficulties he encountered, etc., and the key points he was in front of him.
Lin Zheng said it simply, but Jiang Liang who had heard it once was fine, but Lu Yuanlong and Liu Jianming were shocked: Just because they felt that using cranes to shoot is not only inconvenient, but also expensive, they decided to build such an aerial camera? Should they say they are rich and willful, or should they say that their business opportunities are keen?
That's right. The market competitiveness of state-owned enterprises is not good, but it does not mean that these two people do not realize the market value of this high-stability aerial camera does not exist. On the contrary, after listening to Lin Zheng briefly talk about the application field of this aerial camera, several experts who have been immersed in the military industry for a lifetime immediately realized that this aerial camera not only has huge application prospects in the fields of film and television production and advertising production, but also has a huge market for military purposes!
But the question is why such a good idea was not proposed by oneself? These technical difficulties are difficult for a private enterprise that does not accumulate any aviation knowledge, but are they difficult for us old military industry? Of course, Lu Yuanlong and Chen Jianming both know that the technical content of aerial cameras themselves is not high, if they are only civilian. It is already very good to do this level now, but it is far from enough for military use. How to achieve real-time data transmission and confidentiality, small size and even miniaturization of equipment, etc. There are still a lot of problems that need to be solved, but this is not a problem. The real difficulty is to discover a market and application field and work hard on the market.
For a moment, everyone was in a mixed mood.
Lin Zheng was not stupid either. After briefly talking about his aerial camera, he asked Lu Yuanlong and Chen Jianming with a smile: "Mr. Lu, Director Chen, are you here for the aerial camera we are working on? This is a project we cooperate with Secretary Jiang, but as long as Secretary Jiang has no problem, we actually have no objection."
Both Lu Yuanlong and Chen Jianming smiled awkwardly. Before they could think of how to speak, they didn't expect that Lin Zheng would reveal the topic first. For a moment, they couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. However, nodded when they thought of their unit now. Who has the confidence to hold on? He looked at each other and nodded repeatedly: "It made Mr. Lin laugh. It's really a presumptuous to say that we were talking about when we first met, but so many people in the unit were waiting for dinner, so..."
"Understand," Lin Zheng nodded, "What you two mean is that I hope I will give you a suggestion to see if you can earn some money in the civilian field to subsidize the unit. Is that what does that mean?"
"That's right, that's what it means!" After hearing Lin Zheng say the word "suggestion" and it was also a "subsidy unit", Chen Jianming and Lu Yuanlong immediately breathed a sigh of relief, nodded repeatedly, and said with a wry smile: "I believe Mr. Lin also knows the situation of domestic state-owned enterprises now. Although family scandals should not be made public, we hide them in front of real people like Mr. Lin, but we are ignorant of them. I also hope that Mr. Lin, you can take our pulse for us... To be honest, Mr. Lin, the workers in our unit now do not talk about bonuses and benefits, and they cannot even pay the basic salary."
"It's easy to say," Lin Zheng nodded, pondered for a moment, first looking up at Lu Yuanlong: "Mr. Lu, let's talk about you first. I wonder how much Mr. Lin knows about the model aircraft engine?"
"Model aircraft engine?" Lu Yuanlong widened his eyes and asked Lin Zheng again. He asked Lin Zheng to think of a solution for himself, but he didn't expect that Lin Zheng actually proposed a model aircraft engine. He was a little annoyed for a moment: Are you slapping me?
"Mr. Lu must not look down on this model aircraft engine. The high-end oil-driven model aircraft engine and the micro-turbojet engine dedicated to the model aircraft are expensive, and the technical content is not low. Only a few companies in the world can provide it and the profit is also very high. If you can do it well, you will make a lot of money in a year. Although I am not very clear about the specific price, as far as I know, the market price of a model aircraft micro-turbojet engine with a thrust of about 40 kilograms is usually more than 40,000 yuan, and you often can't buy it."
"Is there anything else?" Lu Yuanlong couldn't help but be stunned.
As a top military aviation engine manufacturing unit in China, there is no doubt that Lu Yuanlong has a high vision. Although he knows that model aircraft uses miniature turbojet engines, model aircraft engines are not taken seriously by him at all. But now, Lin Zheng's words undoubtedly completely subvert his perception: How can this kind of child-playing things be sold so expensive?
"Mr. Lu, don't believe it. Which of these high-end model aircraft players is not rich?" Seeing Lu Yuanlong's skeptical look, Lin Zheng couldn't help but smile: "These high-end players are not short of money. They play alone without me. They play as high-end models. Of course, they won't play electric model aircraft that children play. Ordinary oil movement may be OK. High-end micro turbojet power is what they want. A miniature turbojet engine used in a model aircraft has a maximum thrust of only 20 to 80 kilograms, but the international price is often tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands!"
Lu Yuanlong's eyes turned red in an instant!
Although the price Lin Zheng said was definitely not US dollars, even so, it was enough to make the Dawn Factory jealous: Damn it is possible to buy a sedan at the price of a model aircraft engine!
Even if you only sell hundreds or thousands of units a year, the money you earn is enough to improve everyone's welfare. As the leading turbojet engine provider with domestic technical force, Lu Yuanlong doesn't believe that if his unit also wants to make this type of miniature turbojet engine used in model aircraft, it will be inferior to those small workshop factories that have never even heard of.
But before Lu Yuanlong could finish his jealousy, Lin Zheng's next sentence hit him hard, making his eyes turn black...
"In fact, the micro-turbojet engines used in high-end model aircraft are not the most profitable. The most profitable ones are always relatively high-end civilian products. They are driven by high-temperature and high-speed exhaust gases that are eliminated by the engine to provide high-pressure air into the engine cylinders, Mr. Lu should have heard of it? I don't know about aircraft engines, but I think the working temperature of the blades of aircraft engines should be much higher than the exhaust temperature of the automobile exhaust manifold? Since your factory can even manufacture turbojet engines, it should be no problem for exhaust gas turbochargers. In my opinion, the market prospects of this thing are also good, and it should be a trend in the future."
"Exhaust gas turbocharger?" Lu Yuanlong hesitated for a moment and asked Lin Zheng carefully: "I know this thing, but the technical content is not high, but is there a market for this thing? Apart from those modified cars, sports cars or racing cars, where can I use turbochargers on ordinary civilian cars? Mr. Lin, can you think of other things for me?"
Lin Zheng sighed heavily in his heart, "Suspended gas turbocharger, this thing is not conspicuous, but 20 years later, if there is no turbocharged model in the car series, it will be laughed at if someone says it out. However, at that time, the domestic automobile turbocharger market was basically occupied by foreign brands such as Mitsubishi, BorgWarner and Garrett. There is no sign of domestic turbochargers in the market. Lin Zheng originally expected domestic aero engine manufacturers to take this opportunity to enter this market. After all, for them, the technical difficulty is much smaller, but he did not expect that they would even feel the risk is too high and they are reluctant to do it!
However, in this day when naturally aspirated engines are popular, who would have thought that exhaust gas turbochargers will become popular in less than 10 years, and almost present a national turbo trend after 20 years. For these state-owned enterprises, doing more mistakes and doing less mistakes have almost become a belief deeply rooted in their bones. The path they pointed out to them is good, but who is willing to take this risk under the premise of unclear situations? Although they are not unaware of the principle that the greater the risk, the greater the reward.
After thinking about it, Lin Zheng still advised: "Mr. Lu, I am personally optimistic about the application prospects of exhaust gas turbochargers in automobiles. Although there are no cars in China that use turbochargers, in Europe, which pays more and more attention to automobile exhaust emissions, the application of turbochargers in automobiles will inevitably become a trend. There are currently few waste gas turbochargers manufacturers with top-notch technical strength in the world. If the Liming Factory can make efforts in this field, with the accumulation of Liming Factory in aviation engine technology, I believe the result will not be too bad."
"No, the risk is too great," Lu Yuanlong shook his head firmly, and suddenly asked Lin Zheng: "Mr. Lin, doesn't your company also have automobile-related businesses? Why don't you even make the market for this turbocharger? At worst, we can produce it for you."
Let the Liming Factory produce for me? Lin Zheng was stunned for a moment. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
