Chapter 677 Gearbox Appears
Zhang Qihang didn't know that the car side of the group paid so much attention to this matter, and even sent his own "prince" to Huaxia. At this moment, he was sitting in the office of Wang Taiping, the head of Lingong Group, talking with Wang Taiping. Mr. Wang talked and laughed happily.

For the little brother Zhang Qihang, King Wang Taiping always admired him very much. In the past two years, Mr. Wang didn't take Zhang Qihang seriously. But with the rise of Huateng Industrial Group at a comet-like speed, Wang Taiping Naturally, it was inevitable to notice this company in the same city as him, and then he noticed Zhang Qihang.

The next thing is simple, everyone is the person in charge of the state-owned enterprise in the same place, and they are all leading companies in the local industry. Naturally, they look down and see each other.

As for Zhang Qihang's visit, although Mr. Wang was a little curious, he was not in a hurry... With such a big business in Huateng Industrial Group, Zhang Qihang would not be bored and come to find himself to brag about, right?
Knowing that Wang Taiping is also a busy person and time is precious, Zhang Qihang doesn't take it for granted. After exchanging pleasantries, Zhang Qihang said, "Brother Wang, I'm here this time because I have something to do for us to help."

Wang Taiping keenly grasped the key point in Zhang Qihang's words: to ask Lingong to help, not to ask himself to help.

Ask yourself to help, it may be for official business, or it may be for private affairs, but if you ask temporary workers for help, then it is official business.Realizing this, Wang Taiping's face remained unchanged, he nodded and said: "Brother, tell me first, what is it?"

"That's the thing, our Huateng Group has built an automatic gearbox for construction machinery..."

"Brother, wait a moment!" Zhang Qihang just started talking, but was interrupted by Wang Taiping, who was shocked and said: "Brother, you are right, your Huateng Group has developed an automatic transmission for construction machinery. box?"

Wang Taiping was really surprised: Huateng Industrial Group has developed an automatic gearbox for construction machinery?how can that be?

It’s no wonder that Wang Taiping’s reaction was so strong. In fact, in today’s domestic construction machinery field, hydraulic automatic transmissions are a hurdle that all domestic construction machinery manufacturers and supporting manufacturers cannot get around. Machinery manufacturers and supporting system manufacturers, one counts as one, and none is capable of producing hydraulic automatic transmissions. Everyone either produces purely mechanical manual transmissions, or imports hydraulic mechanical transmissions from abroad at high prices. .

But when no one expected it, Huateng Industrial Group suddenly jumped up to him and said that they had developed a hydraulic automatic gearbox for construction machinery!

If he didn't know Zhang Qihang well, Wang Taiping wouldn't believe anything he said: he wouldn't take it like that when he was joking.

Zhang Qihang was not surprised by Wang Taiping's reaction at all. As a senior practitioner in the construction machinery industry, Wang Taiping should of course understand what an automatic gearbox dedicated to construction machinery means. It is normal for Wang Taiping to have such a reaction.

Facing Wang Taiping's shocked expression, Zhang Qihang nodded calmly: "Mr. Wang, can I joke with you about this kind of thing? In fact, our group has now completed four levels of loaders: ZL15, ZL20, ZL25 and ZL30. The development of the hydraulic automatic transmission used will be completed soon, and the bench test will be completed soon. The reason why we asked Lingong for help this time is also because according to the process, the actual loading test will be carried out next..."

Understood!
After Zhang Qihang said this, what else did Wang Taiping not understand about his coming?
Yes, for a mechanical product, especially a core component such as a gearbox, the entire development process is very long. After completing the design of the gearbox and the manufacture of the prototype, it is only the first step of the Long March, followed by a long test In this process, there are not only indoor bench tests and bench simulation load tests, but the most important thing is to install them on the machine for actual use tests. Only in the actual use process can we find problems to the greatest extent and make Targeted modification until the final problem is solved, and then it can be finalized.

As one of the largest manufacturers in the field of construction machinery in China, although the gearboxes assembled on various construction machinery of Lingong Group are still mainly manual gearboxes, in order to maintain their own image, some high-end models still have to use automatic gearboxes. The foreign exchange spent on this every year is not a small amount.

Sometimes Wang Taiping would also secretly think about it, it would be great if there was a company in China that could produce automatic transmissions. In this way, he would not have to beg his superiors to approve some foreign exchange quotas for Lingong every year like his grandson. , I can think about it, he is very clear that in the field of construction machinery, the automatic transmission is simply a hell-difficult subsystem, and it is impossible for domestic companies to conquer this mountain. A young man stood in front of him and said to himself with a smile: "Mr. Wang, please help us..."

Taking a deep breath, Wang Taiping suppressed his agitated mood, and said to Zhang Qihang in a deep voice: "Mr. Zhang, are you sure you are not joking with me? Your Huateng Group really made us Huaxia people Special automatic transmission for construction machinery?"

Zhang Qihang understood why Wang Taiping asked such a question very well, he nodded vigorously, and gave Wang Taiping an affirmative answer in this way: "Mr. Wang, you only need to visit our company once to verify this kind of thing. I can lie ?"

Speaking of this, without waiting for Wang Taiping to speak, Zhang Qihang went on to say: "I know you may feel quite sudden about this news, but Mr. Wang, you should know that since last year, our group has dug a lot of money from Lao Maozi. expert?"

"Well, I know that." Wang Taiping nodded, and suddenly realized: "The automatic transmission project of construction machinery in your group started to be developed last year?"

Even if it started at the beginning of last year, it took about 20 months to come up with an engineering prototype?This speed has completely subverted Wang Taiping's imagination of domestic engineering feasibility research.

"Yes," Zhang Qihang said with a smile, "It's just a coincidence. Last year, I went to Lao Maozi's place to recruit people, and found that Lao Maozi's talents in the field of construction machinery, especially the field of construction machinery automatic transmissions, are still very complete. , In addition, you also know that the economic situation over the past few years has been very sluggish, so I have recruited many experts from the Soviet Academy of Engineering and Road Construction Machinery, and also obtained a lot of technical information..."

"Brother, are you digging from the Soviet Academy of Engineering and Road Construction Machinery?" Before Zhang Qihang finished speaking, Wang Taiping suddenly nodded with a face full of surprise: "So that's the case, it's understandable..."

Of course, Wang Taiping is very familiar with the overall situation of the domestic construction machinery industry, and he is no stranger to the technical level of construction machinery in various countries around the world. , the Soviet Union is much worse, mainly reflected in the relatively high fuel consumption of Soviet construction machinery, poor product accuracy, and slightly low operating efficiency, etc., but even so, the Soviet Union can be regarded as the leader of the second echelon in the field of construction machinery The existence of the technology is still much higher than the domestic technical level.

The Soviet Engineering and Road Construction Machinery Research Institute is the top scientific research institution in the field of construction machinery in the Soviet Union. The technical level of the Soviet Engineering and Road Construction Machinery Research Institute represents the level of the Soviet Union in the field of construction machinery. The Institute of Engineering and Road Construction Machinery has recruited experts and technology. It is not impossible to understand the rapid progress of their automatic gearboxes for construction machinery.

Realizing that this matter was true, Wang Taiping immediately became excited. He held Zhang Qihang's hand excitedly and refused to let go: "Brother, we are willing to help you with this task!"

Speaking of this, Wang Taiping couldn't help feeling emotional: "I'll tell you the truth, my legs have been running thin in order to apply for foreign exchange in the past few years. If you can provide automatic transmissions here, even if the performance is poor Soon, brother, I don’t have to look at the face of the foreign exchange bureau anymore.”

"I still have confidence in the quality, and the old Maozi's technology is still trustworthy," Zhang Qihang laughed twice, then changed his tone, and said, "But Brother Wang, I will tell you in advance Earlier, in addition to supplying Lingong, our group also sent inspection invitations to some other manufacturers, this... please forgive me, bro."

Wang Taiping didn't expect Zhang Qihang to speak so directly, after a moment of stunned, he nodded, "Of course, don't worry, brother, I can understand."

From the standpoint of Lingong, if Huateng Industrial Group's special automatic gearbox for construction machinery is qualified, he certainly hopes that the box produced by Huateng Group is exclusively for Lingong, but thinking about it, he understands this kind of situation better. Things are impossible. Huateng Industrial Group is engaged in poaching people from Lao Maozi and engaged in research and development and building production lines. The investment is definitely not small, and it must form a certain production scale to ensure profits. In this case It is impossible for Lingong to ask Huateng Group not to supply other manufacturers, just like it is impossible to ask those engine manufacturers to supply directly to itself.

........................

Because this news is so important to Lingong, even if it is impossible for Zhang Qihang to lie, he still immediately brought the chief engineer Xu Jinyong to Huateng Industrial Group to confirm the news.

After arriving at the R&D center of Huateng Industrial Group and seeing with his own eyes the more than 20 gearboxes lined up and being tested on the bench, Wang Taiping was relieved: It seems that Zhang Qihang did not talk nonsense, Huateng Industrial The group has indeed made an automatic transmission for construction machinery.

However, Wang Taiping also knows that making an automatic transmission is only the first step. The next step is the reliability, durability, manufacturing cost and production capacity of the transmission... In short, there are still a lot of issues to consider.

Compared with Wang Taiping, Xu Jinyong, the chief engineer of Lingong, is different. He is more concerned about technical issues. After Ivanov was able to speak Chinese, Xu Jinyong asked him to ask this and that.

Andrei Ivanov is also good-tempered. He knows everything Xu Jinyong cares about, especially technical issues, as long as it does not involve his own secrets. Xu Jinyong is already excited, and has no doubts about Huateng Industrial Group's achievements and strength in the field of automatic transmissions for construction machinery.

On the contrary, Wang Taiping, after the initial excitement, his mind suddenly became active: If I remember correctly, it seems that Huateng Industrial Group has not started construction of a construction machinery automatic transmission production plant?if it is like this……

The current Lingong Group is rich!

In the past 1994, Lingong Group achieved an output value of more than 2 million yuan and a profit and tax of 5569 million yuan. Compared with last year, in the first half of this year, Lingong Group has achieved an output value of more than 1.16 million yuan. It is expected that the annual output value is expected to break through 2.3 million yuan, the annual profit and tax is expected to exceed 6000 million!
With such a large sum of money in hand, I have never heard that Huateng Industrial Group's construction machinery automatic transmission factory intends to start construction...

Taking advantage of Xu Jinyong's happy chat with Andrei Ivanov, Wang Taiping approached Zhang Qihang and said with a smile: "Boss Zhang, brother Zhang, I have something to ask you."

"What's the matter? Brother Wang, just ask."

Wang Taiping tentatively said: "If I remember correctly, it seems that our Huateng Group has not started any new infrastructure projects in the past few months?"

Seeing Wang Taiping's appearance, Zhang Qihang smiled: "Brother Wang, if you have any questions, feel free to ask them, and I will definitely not keep it from you if I can answer."

Zhang Qihang has already talked about this point, what else can Wang Taiping say?He nodded: "Then I'll just say it straight...Brother Zhang, let me ask, can you allow us to participate in Lingong's construction machinery automatic transmission factory?"

Ok?
Wang Taiping's question was somewhat beyond Zhang Qihang's expectation.

To be honest, the reason why Huateng Industrial Group has not started to build its own construction machinery automatic transmission production plant until now is that it has absorbed those construction machinery manufacturing units to invest together, and at the same time combined these construction machinery manufacturing units with Huateng Industry The group’s plan to be bundled together is like the Ningde era for several years. Everyone is a shareholder of the company. Can you still go to other manufacturers to buy batteries?

Just before this, Zhang Qihang was actually thinking about how to tell Wang Taiping about this matter, but now, Wang Taiping took the initiative to speak first, and Zhang Qihang felt that he needed to adjust his thinking a little bit. It's not a business.
