Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 1605 Internal Bidding
Duan Yun never thought that he would have the opportunity to participate in the research and development of military vehicles. Compared with civilian vehicles, military vehicles have stricter performance requirements, and it is very difficult to develop such products.

In the past, Duan Yun's company did not have the strength to participate in this kind of research and development work, but with the joining of more and more Soviet experts, it gave him a lot of confidence.

As a matter of fact, the civilian vehicles of the Soviet Union are indeed a bit stretched, with a silly, thick and black appearance, and low cost performance. However, in the field of military vehicles, Soviet military vehicles can definitely be called the top in the world, not inferior to European and American military vehicles.

"Director Xu, I did bring in a lot of Soviet experts, but their true capabilities have yet to be tested. It may be difficult for them to develop military vehicles in one step." Duan Yun thought for a while and said.

When dealing with people in the military, Duan Yun dared not make any promises easily, because he knew that there was no joke in the military, and when talking to cadres of this level, the promises made must be fulfilled.

"I know this situation. Military technology research and development cannot be done overnight. Everything needs time and process." Xu Shaoqiang paused, and then said: "This is our plan. Next month, the national ministries and commissions will provide several key The automobile companies issued a notice, which also includes your Longteng Co., Ltd. At that time, we will hand over the performance indicators that the new generation of military vehicles need to meet to each of your companies, and limit it to come up with a new model before March next year. Come up with the design plan of your military vehicle, and make 3~2 prototype vehicles. At that time, we will organize relevant experts to evaluate your design plan, and then select the vehicle with the best indicators in all aspects for finalized mass production... ..."

"That is to say, if the prototype car designed can be selected, you can get an order for military vehicles!?" Hearing this, Duan Yun's eyes suddenly brightened.

Obviously, Xu Shaoqiang’s selection of the best is actually the bidding of military vehicles in the auto industry. Whichever auto company designs military vehicles with good quality and high cost performance, the state will place an order for this company.

In fact, for Duan Yun, if the military vehicle designed by his company can win the bid, it will definitely be an honor with a sense of accomplishment. As for how much money he can make through this batch of orders, that is not what he values ​​most.

Another point is that their company can get orders for military vehicles, which means that Longteng Group has become a military enterprise to a certain extent, and the binding degree with the national government will be strengthened, which also makes Longteng Group have a stronger backer .

"Yes, if the military vehicles you set up are the best, then you will get orders from the country." Xu Shaoqiang smiled slightly, and then said: "As far as I know, in the next 3 to 5 years, our country will It will gradually replace nearly 10 60s cars imported from the Soviet Union and domestic military vehicles. This is a very large order, and I hope you can cherish this opportunity."

"10 vehicles..." Duan Yun couldn't help being surprised at this moment.

The quality requirements of military vehicles are high, and the purchase price is relatively higher than that of ordinary civilian vehicles.

The order of 10 military vehicles is a very scary number. As far as the current Santana is concerned, the annual output in 1990 was around 15. If Duan Yun built a production line as advanced as the Santana, then the 000 An order of 10 military vehicles can be produced continuously for at least 6 to 7 years, which means that Duan Yun does not have to worry about the sales of cars in the past few years.

Moreover, with the orders brought by military vehicles, Duan Yun can earn huge profits from them on the one hand, and on the other hand, he can also continuously carry out design accumulation and equipment upgrades during this period, so that his company can finally be in the domestic automobile industry. Stand firm.

To put it bluntly, this order alone is enough for Duan Yun to realize his "car dream".

However, Duan Yun also knew in his heart that it was impossible for the country to hand over such a large portion of the cake to a private enterprise like him, but because of Poly's shareholding, there would be no fewer orders that could actually be obtained in the end.

"I can assure you that the bidding for military vehicles this time will be absolutely fair and just. You have recruited troops and planned strategies for so long. I think you should cherish this opportunity." Xu Shaoqiang said with a smile.

"That is, that is! This time we will definitely strive for it." Duan Yun said repeatedly.

It is absolutely impossible to want the horse to run without letting the horse eat grass.

Now Tianyin Group spends a lot of money to introduce so many heavy industry and automobile experts from the Soviet Union. The cost is quite huge. If the country wants to use these Soviet experts, it is naturally impossible to recruit them for free. A small loss makes a big difference, disrupting the order of the market economy.

It is precisely because of this that the higher-level leaders of the country will change the previous mode of designating key state-owned military enterprises for fixed-point production, adopt the method of public bidding, and add Duan Yun's company to the bidding objects, in order to test these Soviet Union The "gold content" of experts.

Duan Yun is also well aware of the intention of the superior leader to arrange this.

In addition, this is the country's bidding for military vehicles. Another important reason is that state-owned enterprises do not have strong incentives for product research and development. Because of lack of funds and no pressure from market competition, many state-owned enterprises, including some military enterprises, are not interested in self-developed products. The enthusiasm of the military industry is not high, and sometimes it is just to simply cope with the orders of the superiors. It is precisely because of this that before the 90s, the development of domestic military technology has been very slow, and the gap between the advanced level of the world, especially the developed countries in Europe and America The bigger it is, this is also a drawback of the planned economic system.

So Duan Yun’s company was added to the bidding this time, on the one hand because Duoyun had previously introduced a large number of Soviet experts, the country needed foreign technology and talents, on the other hand it was to put some pressure on those military enterprises that did not seek to make progress within the system , Let them have a sense of competition and crisis, this is the true intention of the country's superior leaders.

"The opportunity is right in front of you. Whether you can seize it or not depends on your own ability." Xu Shaoqiang smiled slightly, and then said: "Besides, don't think that Gaoxin will be able to secure victory by hiring a few Soviet auto experts. Several large military vehicle companies are all strong, and they also have decades of experience and technology accumulation in vehicle manufacturing, and there is a price to be paid for underestimating the enemy!"
