Intelligent Industrial Empire

Chapter 1327 The step towards the world is unstoppable (5/6)

Even when he returned to the hotel, Othello hadn't recovered from the shock in the September 1st Research Institute.

Yun Fei asked him last, what it meant, always echoing in his ears.

What does this production model mean?He knows best.Production efficiency is the most critical thing for mass-produced products.As long as the efficiency is increased, the quality can be guaranteed, and the production is uninterrupted throughout the day, the production cost can be reduced to a negligible level.

The price of a robot will not exceed 100,000 U.S. dollars, and one of their ordinary operators has an annual salary of more than 20,000 to 30,000 U.S. dollars, and insurance must be added. If in order to guarantee 7 times 24 hours uninterrupted For local processing, three shifts are required, which means that one piece of equipment or several pieces of equipment requires three ordinary workers to work uninterruptedly.In this way, their annual labor cost will be around $100,000.

And the robots of the Jiuyi Research Institute don't even need the cost of one year of operating workers in their equivalent positions, and they can be used for many years!Even if it is only used for one year, it is okay.

For products such as auto parts, which are entirely based on large-scale uninterrupted production as the main production mode, how powerful this mode will be for cost control, how can he not know?What Jiang Muge told him could completely reduce their production costs by more than 10%. He realized only then that this was definitely not bragging.

Working well can reduce more costs.

With fewer people, management costs will be reduced accordingly...

"Sam, have the contents of the miniature camera been sent to the company headquarters?" I really couldn't sleep. Even the contents of the welcome dinner of the Chengdu city government at night, what they need to pay attention to, and the politician Othello who will make a good relationship I don't even remember.

What he is worried about is how to use these technologies of the Jiuyi Research Institute to carry out a new round of technological upgrades to their company, and it is best to obtain these technologies in Yunfei's hands.Anyway, the Chinese people are not very aware of this aspect of technological secrecy.

"Sir, it has been sent back via e-mail. But the company has not responded yet..." Sam is very young, at least much younger than Othello.

He has followed Othello from the moment he entered Rockwell, and he can do these things very well without the boss of Othello.Yun's technology also shocked him.Even in technologically advanced countries like Japan and Germany, there is no such madness as the Chinese for research on such large-scale intelligent production.

Moreover, China's demographic dividend has just begun.

In China, the cost of an ordinary operator is not even more than one thousand dollars a year!

Yunfei's research on these robots under such a low labor cost environment is definitely to replace these cheap labor with better efficiency.

China can use it. If they use such a model in production in the United States, how much cost will it save?How much efficiency is improved?

"Sam, do you think that if we introduce this production model and technology from China, how much improvement will our company's current situation be?" Othello rarely asked Sam for his opinion before, after all, this young man is far from reaching him. The desired situation.

"Boss, if we introduce it in time, we can't save much in this regard. Their control technology is not enough. The production of these parts requires final finishing..." Sam was not as completely shocked as Othello.

For people who do not know these technologies very well, many of the effects and effects of these technologies are invisible.

"What about their numerical control equipment? I remember that when I left, the other party gave you their technical information. Do you think that if we use their numerical control equipment and then introduce their production lines, this is the same as the Japanese and Taiwanese factories. Are those cheap equipment cheaper than those?” Othello did not correct Sam’s views and perceptions.

Yun's technology in this area is indeed not mature enough, but since they have reached such a point, it is definitely impossible to give up like this.

In fact, their company can complement the technologies of Yun's Holdings. This is a very big opportunity.It just seems that it is not a simple matter to persuade the Chinese who are very wary of them to cooperate.

"The technical performance of Chinese CNC equipment can fully meet our requirements, but in terms of price, it is still almost five percent more expensive than Taiwanese machine tools. For this, we need to pay millions of dollars. The price of the Japanese five-axis machining center is 20% lower than that of the Chinese. If all the equipment they provide to us is the kind of equipment we see, I think it is absolutely necessary for us to The Chinese purchase four-axis machining centers and five-axis machining centers for our company's rough machining and semi-finish machining..." Sam does not have any opinion on the Chinese, and the opinions he put forward are all based on the interests of their company.

Othello agrees with this point.

They can buy Chinese CNC machine tools.

As for Sam's proposal to purchase the most common three-axis machining centers from Taiwanese, and then purchase four-axis and five-axis machining centers from the Chinese, and even their operating robots, Othello really wanted to do this. But the Chinese are definitely not so stupid.

The price Jiang Muge gave them was the packaged price.

If you only buy Chinese four-axis and five-axis, it will definitely not be that cheap.

The shrewdness of the Chinese is a fact that the whole world has to admit.It's just that what Chinese people like most is infighting. The tragic infighting and selfish character have blocked their excellent qualities.Only a few people will realize this problem.

Just as Napoleon said back then, China is a sleeping lion. Once it wakes up, the whole world will tremble.

"Boss, the price is not high. Although our three-axis machining center is higher than that of the Taiwanese, it is still within their tolerance. Taiwan currently does not have the production capacity of a five-axis machining center because of our obstacles. Japan’s five-axis machining center is at least 20% more expensive than ours. Therefore, when packaged as a whole, they will recognize our price..." Jiang Muge did not expect that Yun Fei would give him The offer feels a bit high.

Yunfei’s products have always been sold without price cuts. In the Chinese market, apart from imported CNC machine tools, their products are the most expensive, even more expensive than many imported CNC machine tools.

At the moment, Yun Fei is idle, they are already 15% cheaper than the market price, and the price is relatively cheap to Americans!

Of course, this price is 15% cheaper, and it is an FOB price excluding tax.

"We do have certain advantages over Taiwanese manufacturers, but the current situation in Japan is still unclear. The United States has not come up with regulations to impose sanctions on Japan. Obviously we are engaging in some shameful business with Japan. We have to consider the situation. If we make such a big sacrifice, if we can't win this business..." Yun Fei said with a frown.

For him, opening up their robotic laboratories and unmanned chemical plant projects to Americans is a very big loss.

Rockwell International also has very advanced technology on this.

"There is absolutely no need to worry about this. To make such an industrial integrated system, the entire world, as far as I know it, is our family. It is very difficult for robots to replace humans. What's more, not many companies will Crazy as our company is to invest in research and development regardless of cost and efficiency..." Jiang Muge gave Yun Fei a flattering.

Foreign companies' investment in R&D is indeed very high, but they rarely invest in projects that have little to do with their products and development.Research on these projects are often scientific research institutions.

Even in those scientific research institutions, not many people will go crazy like Yunfei to invest in research in the direction of intelligent robots replacing humans!

This is a bottomless pit in this world.

"Anyway, you can figure it out. You are responsible for this matter. In addition, we can now talk about the establishment of a North American company. What is your relationship with my uncle? I don't know, but your current ability is completely acceptable. To achieve your desire..." The North American company, whether to establish a new company there or something, Yunfei does not have a clear idea now.

As long as Rockwell's business wins, it has to be established.And it has to follow Rockwell's purchasing business to enter those markets that they did not plan in the beginning.

Even if only one or two employees are sent to the station there, they have to do it.

The current market is not a one-shot deal.

After-sales service is completely related to the subsequent development of the entire company and market expansion.

The surprise came too suddenly.For the current Yunfei.

At the same time, this also complies with the old saying-the east is not bright and the west is bright.He had just snatched hundreds of millions of dollars in huge orders from domestic competitors who had just risen quietly. He thought that they had to take back their steps to enter the international market to start again, but he did not expect that Rockwell gave them a bigger They can follow Rockwell’s steps to the world.

"Boss, this is what I think. Regarding the North American branch, we can just establish a sales company and market service, and produce. There is no need to learn from the factories in Taiwan and Japan and build an assembly factory in the United States..." Jiang Muge does not feel that it is more appropriate to establish production plants abroad.
