The four hundred and thirteenth chapter Luo Ye's predicament

Three years ago, the reinstallation office coordinated, and the country introduced 40 150-ton electric wheel dump trucks from the famous American mining machinery manufacturer Haidingsfield Company. According to the contract, 20 of the 40 dump trucks were manufactured in the United States, and the other 20 were handed over to Luoqiu Metallurgical Machinery Factory for manufacturing. Haifei Company needs to transfer all manufacturing technology to Luoye and issue a manufacturing license.

This method is the very popular "market exchange technology" method in the 1980s. If Haifei Company wants to obtain the Chinese market, it must come up with technology to exchange it, otherwise China will turn to Haifei Company's competitors to purchase this batch of dump trucks. If China is a small country, such requests will naturally not be responded to, but China is a big country that makes various equipment giants dare not underestimate it. No one can imagine the result of losing the Chinese market. Therefore, the method of market exchange technology is very common.

Of course, foreign equipment companies have other ideas when they agree to transfer technology to China. Some companies think that China's technical level is low and it is impossible to truly master these high-end technologies. Even if they agree to transfer technology, they will not suffer any losses in the end. Some companies have a bigger goal. They transfer 70% to China and leave a few key technologies to block China's neck. For example, the foreign party does not transfer the manufacturing technology of a few parts in the middle of a device. If China wants to manufacture such equipment itself, it must purchase these parts from the foreign party, and the foreign party can sell these parts at the price of a device to make greater profits.

Similar tricks, European and American companies have adopted Southeast Asia and some countries in South America, and have been tried and tested.

Luo Ye accepted the 150-ton electric wheel dump truck manufacturing technology transferred by Haifei Company, and there was no way to deal with some key technologies that the other party disagreed with. However, Haifei Company did not gain benefits because of its monopoly on these key technologies, because Luo Ye is not a rookie. It has independently developed a 120-ton electric wheel dump truck and has a very solid technical accumulation. After digesting the part of the technology transferred by Haifei Company, Luo Ye organized technical research and broke through several technical barriers blocked by Haifei Company, and realized the localization of key components.

Today, the 150-ton dump truck independently produced by Luoye is almost the same as the one imported from the original factory of Haifei Company, but the price is about 20% lower. And the most important point is that purchasing Luoye's dump truck does not require valuable foreign exchange, which is very meaningful for China, where foreign exchange is extremely tight.

Luoye's factory leaders are full of confidence and feel that with a magical tool like a 150-ton dump truck, Luoye will have no worries about food and drink in the next 20 years. But who would have thought that a technological breakthrough was made, but the market did not get it. Luoye originally planned to sell more than 40 150-ton dump trucks in the domestic market every year, but the orders they received last year were less than 20, thanks to Feng Xiaochen who won the Honghedu copper mine for them. Because Feng Xiaochen impressed Zou Bingzheng, the old director of the Honghedu Mining Bureau, the Honghedu copper mine became a hard-core user of Luoye. Among the orders of less than 20 vehicles last year, the orders provided by Honghedu were 8.

Seeing that there was no rice to be put into the pot, Luo Ye's factory leader panicked and began to conduct intense public relations. He sent personnel to various mines to contact each other to contact each other and promote dump trucks. Because Wang Weilong had been seconded by the Metallurgical Bureau of the Economic Commission and was a veteran subordinate of Luo Xiangfei, he was assigned by the factory director to go to the capital to find the Reinstallation Office to help coordinate. As Luo Xiangfei said, after Wang Weilong arrived in the capital, in addition to complaining to Luo Xiangfei, he also went to the Academy of Social Sciences to find Feng Xiaochen, but because Feng Xiaochen was out for a meeting, the two did not meet.

"Lao Wang, I am just a poor student now. Why are you looking for me?"

Looking at Wang Weilong who was called by Luo Xiangfei on the phone, Feng Xiaochen asked with a smile.

"Of course I'm going to save you." Wang Weilong said, "Last time you went to Honghedu, I convinced Director Zou. Now Director Zou has become our strong backing. Not only did he purchase dump trucks from us, he also took out some money to jointly establish a Honghedu Mining Machinery Research Institute with us, and helped us conduct industrial experiments almost free of charge. Our factory director said, please, Xiao Feng, you have worked hard and help us contact ten or eight mines like Honghedu. Our business is enough."

"Old Wang, kill me. There is only one Honghe Du, I almost let Lao Zou depose me. Do you think it's so easy to persuade an old leader like Lao Zou? There are ten or eight families, do you think I am Zhuge Liang?" Feng Xiaochen scolded angrily.

Wang Weilong's words are naturally a joke. The Honghedu model cannot be replicated. Unit leaders like Zou Bingzheng with a sense of overall situation are not easy to find. Even if they can convince several unit leaders, they may not be able to monopolize power like Zou Bingzheng and have the final say. If it is a collective decision, most companies will start from their own interests, which is also the mainstream nowadays.

"Actually, I came to Beijing this time, mainly to take the path of reinstallation and office." Wang Weilong turned his head and said to Luo Xiangfei, "Director Luo, the 150-ton dump truck project was introduced at the beginning, which was led by the Reinstallation Office. The purpose of the introduction was to realize the domestic replacement of heavy-duty dump trucks. Now we have completed the technical research and development task delivered by the Reinstallation Office, and have invested huge funds to purchase equipment and established a production line. At this time, the mines are unwilling to accept our products, and the Reinstallation Office has the obligation to come out to coordinate with us."

Luo Xiangfei sighed: "Xiao Wang, I don't know what you said? You are the one who has the best digestion and absorption of equipment technology introduced in recent years. Of course, there are objective reasons for this. After all, the technical complexity of dump trucks is much worse than that of large fertilizers and thermal power units. You have taken the lead in realizing the domestic production of equipment. In any case, the typical example of the reinstallation should be established.

But you also know the current situation. The management rights of the mine have been delegated, so it is difficult for us to issue orders to the mine as we did in the past. Even in the past, it would take some quarrel to convince the mine to accept domestic equipment. The difficulty is even greater now. To be honest, I have been helping you contact this matter these days. Lao Pan from the Cold Water Mine promised to ask for 4 units. Speaking of which, this matter is also related to Xiao Feng."

Speaking of this, Luo Xiangfei smiled helplessly. When he called Lengshui Mine, Pan Caishan, the chief of Lengshui Mine, agreed to be quite readily, but then said another sentence, saying that this was for Feng Xiaochen's face. This made Luo Xiangfei very unhappy, but he had to admit that the relationship between enterprises like Lengshui Mine and superior authorities was not to this extent. If it weren't for the good fate that Feng Xiaochen had accumulated in Lengshui Mine, Pan Caishan would probably not have given such face.

"Look, Xiao Feng, after talking for a long time, you still have to take action, right?" Wang Weilong turned his head to Feng Xiaochen, saying half teasing and half seriously.

Feng Xiaochen did not answer Wang Weilong's words, but asked Luo Xiangfei: "Director Luo, can't we let the Economic Commission and Planning Commission jointly issue a document stipulating that equipment that can be domestically produced must be purchased, so there is no problem of who will sell face. Luo Ye's situation is probably not an exception. It is impossible for the country to always rely on personal face to solve the problem of the country?"

"That's for sure." Wang Weilong said. After saying that, he said to Feng Xiaochen with a smile on his face: "But, Xiao Feng, brother, I can't wait for the country to issue a policy now. We, Luo Ye, will soon be out of food. You can help me. Think about it, which of us is with whom."

This is a bit like a shameless person. From this, we can see that Wang Weilong is indeed quite helpless, so he has to play the emotional card with Feng Xiaochen. He actually doesn't know how Feng Xiaochen can help him, but Feng Xiaochen's previous performance was too outrageous, which gave Wang Weilong some almost superstitious worship. He even felt that under the current situation, Luo Xiangfei's appearance was not as effective as Feng Xiaochen's appearance. Luo Xiangfei could only think of a solution from the system, but the current system is dominated by decentralization. Luo Xiangfei has no power and is difficult to make a difference. But Feng Xiaochen is different. He always does everything in his work, borrows whatever power he has, and can create power when he has no power. What Wang Weilong needs now is such a person.

Luo Xiangfei said: "Xiao Feng, see if the Academy of Social Sciences can go ahead. If it can go ahead, go and help Xiao Wang and the others diagnose it to see if there is any way to help them overcome the current difficulties first. As for the policy side, I will continue to work hard. The idea you just said is good, and we should indeed have a domestic procurement requirement. However, this article is probably not enough for the Economic Commission and the Planning Commission to issue it. It requires coordination of more units, which takes time."

Feng Xiaochen did not agree to help Wang Weilong immediately, but in fact he was also concerned about Luo Xiangfei's face. He was no longer the one who reinstalled the installation. He had to do something that others could not solve when looking for reinstalling the installation, and he had to do it himself. This would inevitably make Luo Xiangfei feel embarrassed. Now that Luo Xiangfei said, Feng Xiaochen had no reason to shirk it. He nodded and said, "Director Luo, don't worry. On the other hand, I have several courses that are not taken without taking, so I have plenty of time. I have contacted Director Wang in the past, so I should do a good job of starting and ending. However, I don't know the specific situation yet, and I can't say how to help Director Wang solve the current dilemma."

"I can tell you whatever situation you want to know." Wang Weilong said.
