Intelligent Industrial Empire

"Without any foundation, China created an atomic bomb, a hydrogen bomb, and at the same time, it sent their satellites to the sky. Now, after China's reform and opening up, their technological development has gone from what it used to be. So fast, why is this?" Blacker asked everyone with a serious face.

Why is that?

The shareholders of Pratt & Whitney suddenly felt pain. The speed or slowness of the Chinese technology development has nothing to do with them. However, there are several officials of the Ministry of Defense here, and they are not easy to suffer. ?After all, national interests are above all else!Of course, thinking from another angle, this is not a bad thing, after all, Boeing is putting pressure on them through the Department of Defense.

Only by convincing these guys from the Ministry of Defense can they agree to Pratt & Whitney to export their most advanced civil aviation engines to China.

Seeing the doubts on the faces of the officials of the Ministry of National Defense, Blacker’s mouth was filled with a smile: “It’s because after the end of the Cold War, countries opened up the export of some technologies to China, and they also exported some technologies that were outdated to China. It costs the Chinese not much money..."

Blacker's words immediately received a lot of applause.

Once the Chinese manufacturing technology and design capabilities are up, the biggest headache is the US Department of Defense. The Chinese are not as good as the Soviets in cutting-edge manufacturing, but China has produced a lot of headaches for Americans over the years.

The Chinese 052 ship, many of its technologies are transformed by importing civilian technology from the international market; and China’s Dongfeng-35, a super strategic missile that the Americans have not obtained detailed intelligence, is said to be better than the old man. The Baiyang-MD intercontinental missile with a range of 14,000 kilometers in hand is even better!This is the assassin that the Chinese have spent more than 30 years with their heart.

There are also China's strategic nuclear submarines, according to the news that the performance of the 096 class is even better.

The Chinese do not have advanced fighter jets, so their air defense missiles are the most cost-effective in the world; the Chinese do not have large warships, so their anti-ship missiles and submarines are equally excellent; the Chinese do not have long-range bombers and cannot produce The atomic bomb that came out was dropped where they needed it, so the Chinese produced a Dongfeng-35 with a super long range...

All this is kept secret by the Chinese.

If the Americans hadn't had the largest intelligence system in the world, they would never know these things.

The Chinese are not as weak as they appear on the surface.

Otherwise, after the fall of the former Soviet Union, America’s biggest enemy in the world, the United States was the first to clean up China, and now, they are only imposing some restrictions on China, rather than the most violent actions with the former Soviet Union. confrontation.God knows what the Chinese have hidden in the mountains that have been dug through these years.

What restricts the development of China's top equipment is nothing else, but China's manufacturing capabilities that make the whole world painful.

China is a country lacking cutting-edge manufacturing capabilities. These things were created when they did not have cutting-edge manufacturing capabilities. If they were there, would the Americans still be able to maintain world peace?

"Mr. Blackell, in that case, why do you not only export some ordinary engines to the Chinese, but also export the most advanced aircraft engines you have developed? Although it is for civilian use, many of the technologies are derived from military technology. The Chinese are very It is possible to reversely deduce military engine technology from the technology of these aircraft engines..." As a special adviser to the U.S. Department of Defense, Keithwell, who was once the technical head of the U.S. Logistics Equipment Department, asked calmly.

"Mr. Casewell, or do you think that even a Chinese who could not produce an engine that began to be phased out at the end of the 1970s like Bass could develop our engine technology in a short time? You know, Bass Engine China People have introduced a full set of production technology!" Blacker smiled.

All the shareholders of Pratt & Whitney also laughed.

Of course, Keswell and his party also smiled.

This worry is simply unnecessary.At least, in his eyes, this is unnecessary.

"Well, Mr. Blacker, I personally think that you have successfully persuaded me, but how the Ministry of Defense will decide in the end, I can’t guarantee, I can only promise you that we will all It was sold verbatim to the Department of Defense Strategy..." The old man Keithwell almost left with a smile.

As for the shareholders of Pratt & Whitney, their considerations are not the same at all.

The officials of the Ministry of National Defense consider the negative side of national security, and these shareholders are considering how exports to Chinese people will affect them, how much benefit they can bring, how big the risks are, and how high their profits are. .

After all, everyone is counting on the company to make money to support the family, right?

"As I said before, this is the biggest opportunity for Pratt & Whitney’s business growth at the moment. There is Rolls-Royce in the European market, and GM is a giant in our country, and we have always been given by two companies. Suppressing, in addition to our relatively stable position in military engines, but in the civil aviation power market, we have no way to compete with these two companies. The development of civil aviation engines such as PW6000, which is not too profitable, is not too high. Ready to enter the field of regional airliners, which they have begun to pay less attention to, to avoid too much competition and cause this project to lose money?" Blackell continued to lobby Pratt & Whitney leaders after the military left.

"Mr. Blackell, thank you for all this for us, but we really want to know that by doing so, we will not only offend Boeing, but will also be more severely suppressed by GE and Rolls-Royce. At that time, we will How should Whitney Co. respond?" Pratt & Whitney Chairman Taylor Whitney asked with a calm face toward the professional manager Blackell.

The company has Blacker, an executive president with an annual salary of several million dollars, and his senior chairman simply ignores these businesses.

The European and American arms embargo regulations against China have made the entire world only be able to focus on the Chinese military market. Belarus has obtained tens of billions of dollars in aero engine orders from China every year.

"Chairman Taylor, we have only a cooperative relationship with Boeing. Moreover, they have been strongly recommending GE aircraft engines to their customers. If we do this, there is no offense at all. As for the confrontation between Rolls-Royce and GE More severely suppressed, take the liberty to ask you, before this, we have not been suppressed by them? Who doesn't want to have any competitors?" Blacker asked Taylor with a smile.

Hearing what he said, everyone immediately began to whisper...

"Mr. Jon, because of your Boeing company, we unilaterally tore up the agreement with the Chinese government and have already undertaken huge economic losses, but now you rudely ask us to join you to pressure Rolls-Royce. They refuse to export civil engines for short-range aircraft to the Chinese market. Don’t you think it’s a bit too much?” Regarding Boeing’s proposal, Airbus General Manager Enfit stared at Jon Carson with dissatisfaction.

For this matter, he felt that it was completely unnecessary.

Abandoning the Chinese market in the first place has already cost them a lot.But the guy in front of them persuaded them that the Boeing Board of Directors made a decision from the board of directors, which was not something middle managers like them could decide.

After exiting the Chinese market, although Airbus has gained some benefits from the Chinese market, it is far from the huge benefits of Boeing.

"Mr. Enfit, would you like to see a local competitor appear in the Chinese market? With Chinese habits, how much market share can we have by then?" Jon smiled, "Although we are competitors , But there are unanimous interests in the Chinese market. Only when the Chinese cannot produce large airplanes can the interests of both of us be maximized..."

"That is to maximize the interests of your Boeing? Because of our price issues, the Chinese have now begun to design and manufacture regional airliners. If we did not tear up the agreement that year, your McDonnell Douglas aircraft would still be produced by the Chinese. China What would people do?" Enfit said with a sneer.

If it hadn't been for the decision of the company's board of directors, he would never sit here and talk about it with Jon.The executive vice president of the group company Portia Karente came here for emergency consultations with the president of Boeing Civil Aircraft Group Costello, also for this kind of thing.

After all, Boeing is the leader of civil aviation. Although Airbus is a strong market competitor, its sales are simply not comparable to Boeing.

It has nothing to do with them in how the high-level negotiates.

But for the market, Enfitt is unwilling to be forced to resign like his predecessor.

"As long as the Chinese don't have engines, can they produce a plane that can fly into the sky?" Jon laughed with a full face. For the Chinese, it is not that he looks down on it, but the Chinese is like this in his mind.

"Haha, Jon, on this matter, unless you can convince our board of directors again, Rolls-Royce cannot abandon the traditional market of China because of our pressure. Many of their aircraft use Rolls-Royce engines..." Fett will never tell Jon that it is because of his arrogance that China has a large purchasing group plotting to visit Europe to purchase Airbus A330.

"If we want to restrict the Chinese from engaging in this industry by themselves, we can only make them feel that buying our aircraft is far cheaper than developing them on their own!"
