"Mr. Jiang, what is your consideration?"

Sergei Shestakov had a smile on his face, but he was a little nervous: Can the other party agree to the terms of the Volga Automobile Company?
Jiang He shook his head, and under the gaze of Sergei Shestakov who began to change, he said slowly: "Mr. Shestakov, after the two of us talked last time, I will Our President Zhang reported this matter, and our President Zhang's meaning is very clear: Since the reputation of Huaxia products in the Russian market is not very good, then our Huateng Group, as a state-owned enterprise, must shoulder the responsibility of helping Huaxia products to rectify their names. "

"This……"

Sergei Shestakov thought of all kinds of possibilities, and even thought that Huateng Group would refuse, but he did not expect the reason given by the other party to be this: the other party would be responsible for helping Huaxia’s products to be registered in Russia. Responsibility? !

For a moment, Sergei Shestakov was dumbfounded, not knowing how to answer Jiang He's words.

After a while, Sergey Shestakov said in a hesitant voice: "Well, Mr. Jiang, shouldn't your government do this kind of thing?"

"Our government has been doing this," Jiang He said with a serious expression, "Didn't you realize that over the years, there have been fewer and fewer inferior products from China in your country's market? If it wasn't for the strength of the state In pushing, do you think there will be such a result?"

"Is...is it?" Sergey Shestakov looked a little embarrassed: "I don't know very well."

Jiang He nodded, not intending to hold on, nodded and said: "Volga Automobile Company is so busy with daily work, it is estimated that your wife or the nanny will do the daily purchases at home, you don't know It's also normal."

"Hehe...it's really like this, my lover is in charge of everything in my house..."

The expression on Sergei Shestakov's face grew more and more awkward.

Jiang He nodded, and then said: "After the last conversation, I specifically asked the comrades of our country in the S Hall of your country to find out about the situation of our country's exports to your country over the years. The comrades in the Hall of S told me, In the early and mid-90s, some unscrupulous businessmen in our country did some bad things, but after our government’s continuous rectification over the years, most of the products exported to your country are qualified product.

Although there are still a few unscrupulous businessmen who are falsifying, the proportion is already very low. The Russian people have a high degree of recognition for products from China. In the shopping malls and supermarkets in your country, you can see all kinds of products from China. , which also includes high-end electronic products such as LCD TVs, DVD players, and personal computers. This has also been recognized by your foreign trade system. "

"This one……"

Speaking of this, Jiang He looked at Sergey Shestakov and said: "Mr. Shestakov, thank you for your reminder before, but our company has successively contacted the Chinese embassy in your country, and we have relations with Russia. After contacting the export business company, after research and judgment, it is determined that the whole vehicle can be exported directly, and there is no need to hang your car logo...Of course, we have also felt your sincerity. Mr. Zhang specially asked me to express it to you gratitude."

The last sentence is purely perfunctory.

"..."

This is embarrassing. Sergey Shestakov did not expect Huateng Industrial Group to be so firm on this matter, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.After hesitating for a while, Sergei Shestakov finally found a reason: "If you think so, we can understand... But Mr. Jiang, you should know that in the name of 'OEM' According to official procedures, our country’s export of goods is much more than that of direct imports, this..."

"I understand," Jiang He nodded after quietly waiting for Sergei Shestakov to finish speaking, "But we, Mr. Jiang, mean that some things must be done in the long run. And we Zhang Always emphasized..."

Speaking of this, Jiang He paused for a moment, emphasizing his tone: "Our Huateng Group's financial situation is good, with sufficient capital reserves, and there is enough room for us to try and make mistakes."

The implication: Do you think our group is short of this money?

"..."

Sergei Shestakov fell silent. Having said this, he already understood Huateng Group's attitude towards this matter: export is OK, and the car logo under the Volga banner?That's absolutely not okay.

The most important thing is the last sentence that Jiang He pointed out, which made Sergey Shestakov understand Huateng Group's attitude on this matter: We Huateng Group really don't like exporting to your Russia. The three melons and two dates.

Is that three melons and two dates?
In the view of Sergei Shestakov and other Volga Automobile companies, with the tens of millions of dollars in profits each year, the life of Volga Automobile will be much better in the future, and it can slowly carry out technological improvements, Improve product quality, improve models...there are so many things that can be done...

But the problem is that these are for Volga Motors. If it is for Huateng Motors, Sergei Shestakov found sadly that the profit from exporting to Russia can only be regarded as "three melons". Two dates", since the level of hundreds of millions of "three melons and two dates", it is natural to want it or not, and Huateng Industrial Group does not particularly care about this.

For a moment, Sergey Shestakov didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

Still, Volga Automobile also has "plan B". When formulating this plan, Sergey Shestakov, Valentin Matviyenko and others also considered that they failed to persuade Huateng Group However, it still gives a backup plan of "What should we do if Huateng Industrial Group does not agree to export cars to Russia in the OEM mode?" Therefore, Valentin Matviyenko understands that now is the backup plan Time to plan out...

After a while, Valentin Matviyenko finally spoke, and he said slowly: "It turns out that you have considered it this way. Although it is a bit regrettable, we also fully respect your decision. If this is the case, We hope that you will form a negotiating team as soon as possible, and we will communicate and coordinate on issues of mutual concern."

The so-called "plan B", of course, is agreed, otherwise can it be like this?

Jiang He smiled, nodded cheerfully and said, "Of course, no problem, Mr. Shestakov, I wish us a happy cooperation."

"Pleasant to work with."

--------------

Zhang Qihang looked at the rotating mechanism in front of him that was constantly switching between the horizontal state and the vertical state, and said enthusiastically: "This thing looks a bit like the tail nozzle of an American F-35B fighter jet."

What Zhang Qihang is visiting is the core component of the tilt rotor aircraft under development: the tilting mechanism located at the head of the wingtip engine nacelle. According to Zhang Qihang's request, this technology developed by Huateng Industrial Group The verified tilting rotorcraft should avoid the inherent problems of the American V-22 "Osprey" tilting rotorcraft, such as the crash caused by the downwash airflow when the aircraft is descending rapidly, and the tail nozzle facing the ground when hovering near the ground. The injection of high-temperature and high-speed airflow on the ground leads to circulation problems, etc. The final conclusion is to improve the entire tilting mechanism and change it to a mechanism where the engine nacelle is parallel to the ground and does not move, but the front propeller tilts up and down.

This tilting mechanism is one of the most core subsystems on the tilting rotorcraft. The helicopter department of Huateng Industrial Group cooperated with many domestic universities to develop this thing. In the end, it was the one that Zhang Qihang saw today—the one in front of him. , is not the finalized version, but just a technical verification model.

"When we designed this tilting mechanism, we really borrowed the idea of ​​the tail nozzle of some F-35B fighter jets that can be tilted 90 degrees," Zhang Jiwen nodded and said, "We found that this solution is the most scientific and most efficient. It is reasonable, and at the same time, it also ensures the cleanliness of the inside of the power transmission pipe - the tiltrotor must accumulate a lot of sand and gravel during flight. We have designed several schemes, but the effect of shielding the sand and gravel is not very ideal. In the end, it was found that the F-35B exhaust nozzle is the most ideal solution, and the structure is also the lightest."

Zhang Qihang nodded again and again: "Can this tilt rotor mechanism withstand the power of the turboshaft 8A? Based on this basic structure, what is the maximum transmission power it can withstand?"

"No problem," Zhang Jiwen gave Zhang Qihang an affirmative answer: "Our design, the entire power transmission system and tilting mechanism can withstand a maximum power of 700KW, and the maximum power of a single turboshaft 8A engine is only more than 500KW. enough redundancy.

As for the transmission power that this tilting mechanism can withstand in the future, it depends on the development of material technology and the optimization of the scheme. For now, according to the material situation we have, it can transmit a maximum power of 2500kw. The system is constantly being optimized... According to Mr. Konstantin Antonov, it should theoretically withstand at least 5500KW of power. "

"5500 kilowatts?" Zhang Qihang thought for a while: "That's almost 7500 horsepower?"

"Yes," Zhang Jiwen finished, and quickly added: "Of course, the basic structure and idea are similar. The tilting mechanism that can withstand 5500KW power must be more complicated than our 700KW one."

Zhang Qihang smiled and nodded: "I can understand if you don't tell me...Old Zhang, how long do you estimate it will take you to come up with a prototype that can fly?"

"At least three years."

"At least three years?" Zhang Qihang was a little surprised: "Does it take such a long time? What the company needs you to build is just a technical verification machine to verify the aerodynamic shape and flight control technology. There is no limit to the maximum take-off weight of the aircraft. It doesn’t matter if you end up with a 500kg gadget.”

"I understand your surprise. In fact, I had the same idea as you at the beginning. I didn't think it was something complicated like the V-22 'Osprey'. It was just a technical demonstration machine. How troublesome can it be? But it's really time to participate. After I came in, I realized that I thought things were simple before." Zhang Jiwen said with a wry smile, "Don't look at our technology demonstration machine has no weight requirements, the maximum take-off weight of one or two tons or even hundreds of kilograms is no problem. It seems to be very simple, but in fact it is not the case at all. The problem of the engine is easy to say, and you can find it no matter how you look. The propeller between the propellers, these three things, will not make much difference depending on whether your aircraft is big or small. The difference is nothing more than that we are engaged in a technical verification machine, and the requirements for materials are not high. , the result of everyone's discussion is that all the required materials can be found or bought in China.

But the most terrible thing is that we don't have any accumulation of these three things in China, and we have to start from scratch. That's why I said that three years is the smoothest and most ideal situation. "

Zhang Qihang nodded slowly: "When you say that, I understand."

Zhang Jiwen didn't say anything, Zhang Qihang didn't realize it yet, but now that Zhang Jiwen said this, Zhang Qihang immediately realized it, but isn't it the same thing: Take the propeller as an example, this thing is tilting the rotorcraft to keep it vertical. When it is in the take-off state, it is equivalent to the main rotor of the helicopter to "lift" the aircraft; when it is in the horizontal flight state, it is equivalent to the propeller of the traditional fixed-wing propeller powered aircraft, providing a horizontal force for the aircraft, " "Pull" the plane to fly forward. In this way, the question came: In the past, the main rotor of the helicopter did the work of the helicopter, and the propeller did the work of the propeller. Everyone was clearly separated and did not disturb each other. But now, suddenly Jump out and say that you have to do the work of two people... In this way, how should this propeller be designed to meet the two working conditions at the same time.

No, it's not even two working conditions, but the two working conditions are simple. The most terrible thing is the transition in the middle, which makes people scratch their heads.

This is true for the propeller, as is the overall aerodynamic design of the aircraft and the design of the flight control system. It is no longer possible for a unique aircraft such as a tiltrotor to use the traditional "mechanical-hydraulic" flight control system. Fly-by-wire flight control, but Huateng Industrial Group does not have any technical accumulation in fly-by-wire flight control, so it can only ask for help from its big brothers...

"Take your time, you all proceed at your own pace, the company is not in a hurry," Zhang Qihang patted Zhang Jiwen on the shoulder: "If you fail in three years, you will be five years, if you fail in five years, you will be ten years, as long as you persevere, you will always succeed. "

With Zhang Qihang's statement, Zhang Jiwen was relieved, and he smiled and said, "It won't be necessary in 10 years. If it really takes 10 years to get this technology verification machine out, then I'll just hit it to death." , it’s not embarrassing enough... In 3 to 5 years, we will definitely be able to produce a technology verification machine.”

Zhang Qihang nodded with a smile.
