Great warships

Chapter 322 Go the way of others, let others have no way to go

Mingzhou Shipyard.

"Boss Qin is really powerful. He easily dismissed the Norwegians at Huating." Cong Ju said happily: "Those people are currently selling their natural gas ship patents at the Huating Shipyard. For our infringement, No more pursuit."

"If they still dare to trouble us, Taozi will have to drive them out of business. Hmph, patent hooligans." Qin Baoshan said proudly. He also kept pace with the times and learned a lot of new terms.

Unknowingly, Qin Baoshan became more and more like Qin Tao. From the initial disagreement, to now, no matter what, Qin Baoshan will firmly support his son.

Listening to Qin Baoshan's words, Cong Ju was also very emotional.

At this moment, a voice came from outside: "Why do I hear this voice, as if it is scolding me?"

"President Qin!"

Cong Ju ran out with a smile, and then saw the familiar figure and the person next to him.

"Hey, Xiaoling, why are you back?"

"Sister Congju, do you not welcome me?" Zhao Ling said with a smile.

"Of course not. In the past two years, you went to Huating and separated from Taozi. It's really distressing. This time, don't leave at all. The couple still have to be together." Cong Ju Talk on and on.

Zhao Ling glanced at Qin Tao beside her. In fact, she felt a little ashamed in her heart. As a wife, she was incompetent.

"Xiaoling, how long do you plan to come back to stay?" Qin Baoshan also asked, he knew that Zhao Ling would definitely not stay here forever.

"I came here this time to look at the outfitting of the 051C warship, and by the way, to provide some reference for our Hongqi-16 boarding. We should make adjustments as soon as possible, and make changes before production to save waste. Probably Will stay for ten days and half a month."

Zhao Ling was originally developing a new project, but now the project has encountered some problems and needs to be suspended for a while. Taking advantage of this time, Zhao Ling just came back to take a look. In fact, why doesn't she want to be with her husband every day?

After the Hongqi-16 project is successfully developed, I just resign and come to the shipyard!Zhao Ling made up her mind.

"Okay, that's good. I'll find someone to tidy up your new house, and the quilts should be aired." Qin Baoshan said, "Taozi, you are really good, and you don't even say hello when you come back."

"You don't need to clean up, just open me a suite in the guest house." Qin Tao said.

"What?"

Qin Baoshan was just surprised. After he came back, he didn't live at home, but went to live in a guest house?However, after a moment of surprise, he also reacted: "Okay, if you want to live, you can live there, it's clean."

After all, the guest house is newly built, because it was originally the Wanli Kanhaixuan project.

When the project went viral, the government found someone to take over the project. In the end, Qin Tao generously took over the project, capped it off, and moved in.

As for the name, it was renamed Mingzhou Shipyard No. [-] Residential Community.The first community was the original one-story family courtyard, the second community was built later under Qin Tao's arrangement, which solved the housing problem for the employees, and the third community was the almost unfinished project.

Twenty four or five-story garden houses are all large square meters. Many of the old men Qin Tao found and the new ones have chosen this third residential complex. As for the one that was originally planned to be built The [-]-story landmark building was only built up to the seventh floor. After the top was capped, it became the guest house of the Mingzhou Group.

Of course, ordinary people can only live in the lower five floors. Under the obstruction of the surrounding buildings, the shipyard cannot be seen at all. The six and seven floors require special personnel to move in.

Ever since the guest house was built, no one has lived in the sixth and seventh floors. With the spacious rooms and luxurious decoration, why would Qin Tao live in his own home in the future, and take his wife to enjoy it? It's a vacation after a long hard work. .

Zhao Ling didn't have much feeling about the guest house at first, but after getting off the car, when she saw the big pillars outside the guest house and the big gilt characters on them, she felt a little emotional.

"Our Huating International Hotel doesn't have such a luxurious style!"

Qin Tao smiled: "Xiao Ling, in your eyes, we don't deserve to own this kind of luxury hotel? Think about it, if some customers come to our Mingzhou to discuss business, let them live here and feel the luxury, they will be How do you feel? Do you think our Mingzhou Group has strength?"

If it's just a military industrial group, there's no need to be so extravagant and keep a low profile. However, if the Mingzhou Group is to develop, civilian ships are always the most important, so it must have an aura.

Just like some businessmen, they can rent a house, but they must have a luxury car to go out to discuss business, which is a symbol of strength.

While speaking, a young man wearing white gloves came to open the door of the Mercedes-Benz Grand G for them. This specification is definitely a first-class international standard.

Zhao Ling walked down and was even more surprised when she saw several extended cars for welcoming guests: "How much did you invest?"

"Not much, those are obtained from special channels, very cheap."

The most expensive car is his Mercedes-Benz Big G.

Under the reception of the welcome staff, Zhao Ling entered the lobby of the guest house, which was empty on the first and second floors, which was very high-end. On one side of the lobby, there was actually a rockery and flowing water, which looked very realistic, and there were circular staircases spiraling around Among other things, who came up with this?The design is too delicate!
"It was designed by the people of the island country. It was originally designed like this. We just improved it and didn't spend much money."

The beautiful waitress at the service desk also hurried over: "President Qin, welcome home, we have prepared for you, please follow me."

After getting on the elevator and going straight to the top floor, and entering the suite with a total area of ​​more than 200 square meters, Zhao Ling looked at the large living room, study room, and the bathroom in the bedroom with glass walls and a huge bathtub for two inside...

This is simply the presidential suite!
"Zhengyang, you also find a room to live in." Qin Tao said to the bodyguards following behind.

Ever since Xu Zhengyang took office, he has been inseparable day and night. Even if Qin Tao is making out with his wife, Xu Zhengyang has to live in a nearby room. Qin Tao is also very open-minded. When the ancient emperor was enjoying himself, there were eunuchs by his side. Keeping records, time, posture, whether to keep dragon species or not.I just live next door, it's not a big deal.

"Isn't it a bit extravagant and wasteful for us to live here?"

"What a waste." Qin Tao said generously: "Anyway, this place has been furnished and no one lives there. That's the real waste. By the way, what do you want to eat? Just call and ask the waiter to bring it up."

"Let's go down and eat, don't bother them."

"Alright, let's go to the restaurant and see what's new today."

In fact, when Qin Tao was alone, he was able to make do with anything, but now, his wife finally came back and stayed for a while, so of course he had to enjoy it.

Now my wife's belly hasn't bulged yet, so I have to work harder, there is no good environment, no atmosphere.

Just entering the spacious and bright restaurant, before Qin Tao found a seat to sit down, he saw a familiar figure who came out just after eating. After seeing Qin Tao, his face was full of excitement.

"Mr. Qin, Mr. Qin, you are such a busy man, it is too difficult to meet you!"

"Michelle? When did you come here?"

The person in front of him is the technical director of GT Company. When Qin Tao brought Cong Ju to France to introduce the membrane boat technology patent, he had negotiated and delivered it. Unexpectedly, the other party came to Mingzhou?

Qin Tao has been busy outside, dealing with various affairs, including the affairs of the shipyard, and handing them over to others with confidence. He only appeared at critical moments.

Now, Michelle actually came, which surprised Qin Tao.

"A week ago, on behalf of GT Company, I inspected your upgrade of our liquid cargo containment system. You are so amazing that you found a better insulation material!" Michelle said excitedly: "You use glass Cotton and polyurethane foam replaced perlite for the insulated boxes, reducing the natural evaporation rate of the warehouse by a third!"

As the technical director of GT Company, Michelle will not run out casually. When the first membrane-type natural gas ship was built in Mingzhou Shipyard, there were indeed several French technicians to guide them. However, they Just supervise and make sure that the quality of the build is not a problem, so as not to smash their GT company's signboard.

Now, the natural gas ship has entered the assembly process. When they found out that the people of Mingzhou Shipyard actually used a heat shield box that was not patented by them, they instinctively wanted to stop it, but this side insisted on doing so. Do, so, the contradiction expanded, and Michelle came over.

He stayed here for a week, did various experiments, and finally determined that the thermal insulation box used by Mingzhou Shipyard has better performance!

This discovery made Michelle ecstatic. With this thermal insulation box, they can better defeat the natural gas ship of the MOSS tank!
The conclusion has been reached, and he was planning to report back to France after this lunch, but he met Qin Tao.

Qin Tao smiled: "For ship owners, the most important thing is economic benefits, so we must reduce the evaporation of liquefied natural gas as much as possible. We also found better materials after some research, and related patents , we have already registered, do you plan to use our patent in your No.96 liquid cargo containment system?"

Michelle nodded: "Yes, you can set a price, no matter how high it is, we can accept it."

"It doesn't need to be too high. According to your rules, we charge five thousandths of each boat. How about it?"

Michelle's face suddenly changed.

"President Qin, we need a one-time acquisition, no matter how much we pay, we are willing. We cannot accept this payment method."

A one-time purchase, no matter how much it costs, is considered a transaction. What if every ship is charged?After this, I can't get rid of it. The future profits will be given to Mingzhou Company. How can this work?

"Can't accept it? Why? You charge our patent fee, don't you also charge it according to the ship? [-]% of the price of each ship, or you can change it and offer a price so that we can buy yours in one lump sum." Patent, how about it?"

Michelle shook her head: "No, no, this is our company's regulation, and we cannot change it."

"What I just said is also our company's regulations." Qin Tao said: "If you want to use this glass wool and polyurethane foam heat insulation box technology, give us five thousandths of the ship's price as a patent fee." , less than one-tenth of the patent fee you charge, which is already very cheap."

For the natural gas ships authorized by GT Company, each ship will charge 5.00% to [-]% of the fee as a patent fee, so that there will be a steady stream of profits, but what about Qin Tao?He only needs five thousandths, that is, one tenth of the patent fee that GT company gets, or even less. In the future, he can follow GT company and make money all the time.

It is good news for Mingzhou Group, but it is definitely bad news for GT Company.

Directly ignore the patent of Mingzhou Group?
This idea just appeared in Michelle's head for a moment, and then it was dismissed.

If they ignore Mingzhou Group's patents, Mingzhou Group can also ignore their GT company's patents!Mingzhou Group has mastered all the manufacturing technology through this first ship, and can build it independently without their company at any time in the future. However, because of the limitation of patent rights, they have to continue to pay them money.

If GT Company breaks the patent restriction first, then Mingzhou Group will definitely do the same without hesitation.Not long ago, after Kvaerner Company Pengci Dazhou was successful, it came to Mingzhou to Pengci again, but it ended up being bloody.

This topic that came up by chance immediately made Michelle a little bit in a dilemma.

Qin Tao smiled: "Mr. Michelle, please convey my request to your company, but we can still negotiate this specific agreement. Perhaps our patent has given you some inspiration, and you can find more What about good materials? There is no need to buy patents from our group.”

Michelle nodded: "Okay."

Anyway, this is just an original intention, and there may be changes in the future.

"Military industry is better." Zhao Ling said such a sentence when they sat down to eat.

In the field of military industry, it is a skill to be able to imitate it, and no one mentions patent rights.In this civil field, agreements, frameworks, and various patent constraints are everywhere, and it is difficult to do something.

"Really? I think civilian ships are also very interesting. Wait until we release the patent for a brand new liquefied natural gas ship, and see if other companies still want to talk about the patent all day long."

"Brand new?" Zhao Ling was taken aback.

Qin Tao nodded: "Yes, I will introduce this design plan to Cong Gong and Yang Gong in the afternoon, and let them refine the plan. In the future, we will use our own patents to build natural gas ships, so as not to hand over all the profits we earn. To the patent trolls."

"This, this, this..."

Zhao Ling didn't know what to say for a while.

"President Qin, since you have this kind of technology, why do you spend a high price to import related technology from the French?" At this time, Xu Zhengyang, who was eating with Qin Tao and the others, spoke up. As a secretary, this is also his scope of authority Guilty, he needs to understand this.

"Because it is impossible for our technology to be recognized by other countries in the world. If they don't recognize it, the natural gas ships built with our technology will not be able to dock at the ports of other countries. They can make it difficult for us to move forward with just any security reason. .”

It's like when Qin Tao used the pressure from Huating's leaders around him when he refuted Kvaerner's infringement claims, we think your patents are problematic and your security is at risk!
After all, natural gas ships are very dangerous. When a 10 cubic meter LNG ship is fully loaded, the total energy of liquefied natural gas stored is equivalent to more than 40 Hiroshima atomic bombs. If it explodes, the consequences will be disastrous.

At present, only the patents of natural gas ships from Norway and France are recognized in the world. After all, they have a history of several decades, and they have gradually matured through continuous development.

If Mingzhou Group suddenly announces that they have a new patent, will others dare to use it?
Natural gas ships are not used domestically, but are meant to sail on the ocean and enter the special unloading ports of various countries. Therefore, with a skeptical attitude, many countries will reject natural gas ships with new technology, for fear of any accidents.

If you want your natural gas ship to be recognized, then the best way is to obtain the recognition of a professional company in this field, as long as GT Company announces that Mingzhou Group's natural gas ship patent is as mature and reliable as GT Company's patented technology !
In this way, they can immediately open the situation.

However, why do people support the Mingzhou Group?Do people know you?
In recent years, Qin Tao has invested huge sums of money in natural gas ships, but in fact all he has done is laying the groundwork!His ultimate goal is to promote his own patents!

Invar steel has been recognized by the French, and next, his patent must be recognized by the French, because the French need his glass wool and polyurethane foam heat insulation box patent!

Xu Zhengyang is a smart person, so he understood immediately. Zhao Ling's eyes lit up: "Really? If that's the case, I really want to see it."

"Of course." Qin Tao nodded: "You can also attend the meeting in the afternoon."

In the afternoon, the meeting room of Mingzhou Shipbuilding Industry Group.

Only a dozen people participated in the meeting. The backbone of the natural gas ship construction led by Cong Ju and the design team led by Yang Dawei became excited when they entered the meeting room.

President Qin must have something new to announce!
"Our meeting today is to discuss the development of our own patented liquid cargo containment system." Qin Tao said: "We will only build one with the technology we imported from France. In the future, we will use our own technology to build all of them." , we will no longer pay any patent fees to the French.”

As soon as this sentence came out, everyone was stunned. The plan proposed by Mr. Qin is really bold enough!

Natural gas ships are expensive, and the profits are not high. After paying 5.00% to 5.00% of the patent fee, it will not exceed 90.00%. That is to say, hard work is not as good as others Those who sell patents lie and earn a lot!Especially in the Kimchi country, due to the continuous increase in labor and other costs, in the end, although it accounted for [-]% of the world's natural gas ship construction orders, the profit was only [-]%.

It's only in the 90s, Qin Tao is going to develop his own patent, leaving aside the French to do it himself, bold enough!

"Boss Qin, what are we going to do?" Cong Ju's tone was trembling. Of course, she knew what it meant to design her own design and own a patent.

"First of all, our boat type must be a membrane type. However, in order to reduce costs, we changed the inner main shielding layer to corrugated 304 stainless steel, and we used Invar steel for the outer secondary shielding layer."

Among natural gas ships, invar steel is the most expensive. Even if their Mingzhou Iron and Steel Plant can produce it themselves, and Qin Tao also bought a nickel mine in a joint venture, the cost of invar steel is still not low, at least compared with stainless steel. There is still a gap of at least ten times.

They introduced the technology from GT Company, and the inside and outside are made of Invar steel. Now, Qin Tao wants to change the inner tank into stainless steel, okay?
Everyone has doubts in their hearts.

"All roads lead to Rome." Qin Tao said: "Tcehnigaz's Mark III technology uses stainless steel. Why can't we use it?"

The node of this time is better.

GTT was established in 94. This year, Tcehnigaz (the company represented by the letter T at the end of GTT) is still independent. They are engaged in ordinary stainless steel membrane boat technology.After the merger in 94, the improved NO.96 system of GTT Company became a structure of stainless steel inside and invar steel outside. They called this GTT NO.96Flex type.

It is only 93 years now, Mingzhou Shipbuilding Industry Group proposed this design, and then registered a patent, so that it is its own!

"We continue to talk about the insulation box. On the basis of our existing materials, we need to use pillar structures and non-structural insulation materials to increase the strength of the insulation box. At the same time, the thickness of the insulation box partition is increased from 1.2mm to 1.5mm, and The top plate is changed to double-layer. In this way, even if the user has only half-loaded the liquefied gas, it can also be driven to the ocean. At the same time, because the heat insulation box is thicker, our evaporation rate must be reduced to zero percent. seven o'clock every day."

The current plan of GT Company has an evaporation rate of [-]%. With the use of new insulation materials, it will be reduced to [-]. Now, after such a toss, the evaporation rate is even lower!
This loading limitation is even more important.

Anyone who has driven a fuel tanker knows that the tank at the back should either not be filled or filled up, and it is most taboo to fill it in half, otherwise the liquid inside will shake when accelerating and braking, especially when braking. The front impact tank allows the car to accelerate.

The same is true for liquefied gas ships at sea. According to the current regulations, either the loading is less than 70.00% or the loading exceeds [-]%.

Of course, when the ship owner loads the ship, he definitely hopes to fill it up, but when unloading, he may unload part of it at this port and part of it at the next port. In this way, the volume of the cargo inside may be reduced. within the limits, posing a threat to navigation.

Now, these design proposals put forward by Qin Tao are very creative.The latter plan is actually the GTTNO96Max plan, the best plan, and now Qin Tao has taken it out.Go the way of others, let others have no way to go!

"Also, we need to collect the evaporated natural gas and use it for the engine. The engine of our liquefied gas carrier must be able to adapt to the dual-fuel mode."
