The number of shipyards participating in the bidding has increased from the estimated dozen to 32.

This number may also increase with red-eye flights at night.It is not that CSSC and its affiliated Jiangnan Shipyard have never bid abroad, but they have never encountered so many competitors.After all, it is only in the past few years that China has stepped out. CSSC is still adapting to the development of the world's shipping industry.

Rong Shangguo took off his high-shoulder-padded suit, threw it on the hotel bed, and quickly put the bidding brochure sent by the Singapore Shipping Group on the table in the next suite, staring at the traditional Chinese characters inside. .

"The number of shipowners has also increased. Taiwan's Evergreen Group has joined the list of shipowners, did you know?" Rong Shangguo looked up at Su Cheng.The relationship between Evergreen Group and Dahua Group is quite close. Most of the crude oil produced by Dahua’s Setan Oilfield and the UAE’s natural gas underwritten by Dahua are shipped and sold around the world through Evergreen Group.South Korea's Hyundai Group is willing to sign a contract to transfer lng technology, which is also the reason why Evergreen Group ordered ships from them.

Su Cheng just nodded slightly, and said: "Evergreen Group buys several large ships every year, and it's not surprising that they jointly bid."

"Can Chairman Su pass the Evergreen Group..."

"I can't ask Evergreen to harm my own interests." Su Cheng interrupted Rong Shangguo before he could finish speaking.

Rong Shangguo sighed, and said: "The bidding method is a secret bid, and it will start in the morning of Houyao. I don't think we should go to sleep. Let's discuss a number."

"Hmm..." Su Cheng also opened the bidding document and looked at it for a while, and said, "Look at this, we divide the shipowners into two categories, one is more concerned about the price, and the other is more concerned about the completion time... ..."

"Good idea." Rong Shangguo immediately started.

The subordinates of the two were also busy searching for information by category.The tendency of some shipowners is very clear in the bidding instructions, but the tendency of other shipowners must be judged according to their company's situation.

The four office staff brought by Rong Shangguo are good at tidying up the room and comprehending the meaning, but when it comes to analyzing the data, they are blind.Especially the information of the world's shipping companies, they are completely blind.Except for one of them, the remaining three couldn't even read the names of all the companies in the materials.

After copying down the list in the bidding brochure, the four members of CSSC didn't know what to do.

I only listened to the two members of the Information Bureau, who were flipping through the books there, and kept calling back to China to check the situation... From the first glance of the six members, Rong Shangguo's face turned red.

But to be honest, Rong Shangguo didn't know how to judge what they wanted for those shipowners who didn't state their intentions in the bidding instructions.

When they were in China, they could still ask, but now they are abroad, should they call them?

Entering the house may not necessarily tell the truth.At the negotiating table, it's just guessing, not to mention bidding.

Of course, when in China, CSSC does not need to compromise.Most companies want ships, so they can only order from CSSC. The specifications and prices of civil ships are fixed, and there is no room for negotiation.

As for bidding?That's just kidding.

Unless the state-owned enterprises are about to starve to death, they all have noble feelings that do not bend their waists for five buckets of rice.Even if China Shipbuilding Industry Corporation is not called the Sixth Machinery Department, it will not participate in the bidding activities of domestic manufacturers.

Do you like it or not.

However, times have changed.The orders received by CSSC this year are not enough, and the profits accumulated from the orders accumulated in previous years are not high. If a few high-priced orders are not placed in, it will be impossible to solve the problem.

At this time, five buckets of rice cannot be let go.Not to mention the five buckets of rice from foreign countries.

Rong Shangguo just didn't expect that his subordinates would become so useless as soon as he stepped out of the country.

With red and white indistinguishable faces, the two members of the Dahua Information Bureau quickly changed one list into two lists.This is the job they are most familiar with. Obtaining data, analyzing data, and drawing conclusions... The work of the Dahua Strategy Department is usually tens or hundreds of times more complicated than this.

It is too simple to divide the needs of 11 shipowners for a total of 32 ships into two parts.

Among the finished products seen by Su Cheng and Rong Shangguo, there are 8 ships belonging to 25 shipowners who care about time, while the remaining 7 ships are more concerned about price, belonging to 6 shipowners.

Rong Shangguo discovered the problem, and immediately asked: "There are 11 shipowners in total, are there any duplicates?"

"We judge this based on the tonnage and model of the ship." Dong Feng of the Information Bureau is a strong and confident man with high eyebrows. He said unhurriedly: "The world shipping industry has experienced 92 years. After the slump in the 25s, it is recovering strongly, especially the bulk carrier market. Due to the strong demand for grain and the increase in imports of steel and forestry products, the rent of bulk carriers, especially handy-size bulk carriers, has increased by 30% to 2%, that’s why there will be a concentrated order meeting today. No matter what kind of shipowners will not let go of the benefits of rising rents, we have divided all orders for handysize bulk carriers of 5 to 10 tons into Regardless of the time frame, it is estimated that they can withstand a rise in ship prices of more than [-]%... Oil tankers and container ships have no driving force for rent increases for the time being, and the number of these ship owners is also relatively high. Should be more concerned about the price."

Rong Shangguo was stunned and said, "You know boats very well."

"Temporary research." Dong Feng expressed a little modesty, and said: "We are just analyzing the information. The price fluctuations of the shipping industry and shipbuilding industry mainly need to be determined. Judging from the current data, the global market for handy-sized ships Orders have increased by 100%, and rent increases will only last about a year or so.”

"How can one year be enough to pay back?" Rong Shangguo's secretary seized the opportunity to speak, brushing up his sense of presence.

Dong Feng said with a half-smile: "One year is really not enough to recover the income, but the shipowner made a plan to recover the income in 8 years, and now it can be used in 7 and a half years. It is very good. Anyway, it is necessary to order, the first point It doesn't matter. No matter what, even if the rent drops after one year, there will be normal profits. Moreover, the 25% of the rent we are talking about will cost millions."

Rong Shangguo agreed: "Foreigners are actually quite patient, and the water flows slowly."

Su Cheng smiled slightly and said, "Then follow this list?"

"Just follow this list." Rong Shangguo relaxed and said with a smile, "In terms of time, shall we determine 10 and a half months? We reserve half a month, and we should be able to guarantee completion."

Just when Rong Shangguo felt that there was almost no controversy, Dong Feng twitched his brows and said, "In ten and a half months, we may not be able to get the order."

"Ok?"

"According to the information we have received, Hyundai Heavy Industries can easily squeeze the time within 10 months, so I think they will choose a delivery period between 9 and 10 months."

Rong Shangguo looked hesitant, and said, "Can Hyundai Heavy Industries in South Korea eat up more than 30 ships?"

"Hyundai Heavy Industries has just expanded its factory, and there are not many orders in hand. If you let them eat, 10 ships will definitely be no problem. This time there are shipyards from Japan and Europe. They have to take at least a few large ships .In addition, both Samsung Heavy Industries and STX have the ability to pick up orders, and they are in a state of technology sharing..." Dong Feng spoke a little fast, but he spoke very clearly.

Those who lack information are a little bit lacking in confidence when speaking.Rong Shangguo was not happy, and he still asked, "Then in your opinion, we have to set the time at 10 months?"

"It's better to be safe for nine and a half months."

Hearing what he said, Rong Shangguo changed his expression and asked, "Can Dahua complete the manufacture of a 9-ton ship in nine and a half months?"

"Barely able to do it." This time, it was Su Cheng who answered.

With the increase of skilled workers in Dahua Shipbuilding, the production capacity of Dahua Shipbuilding has increased by leaps and bounds.This is not only the increase in productivity brought about by the high level of wages, but more importantly, the ability to exchange wages with the offshore drilling platforms of Dahua Shipbuilding.

Dahua Shipbuilding has been working on offshore drilling platforms for 4 years. The number of employees is very stable. Almost most of the workers have more than 5 years of experience. According to international standards, these workers can be regarded as skilled workers.

The production tasks of the Dahua offshore drilling platform are also very tight, and the profits are quite high. Direct transfer of labor income will cause too much loss.However, if Dahua Shipbuilding trains workers for one or two years and replaces some senior technicians and skilled workers, the speed of the offshore drilling platform department can be increased without slowing down.

This approach was actually often used by state-owned enterprises in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China.

At that time, Shanghai and Northeast China were the manufacturing centers of China. If workers from other places were exchanged with those in Northeast China or Shanghai, the factories in Shanghai and Northeast China would hardly be affected if the income did not exceed 30%. However, factories in other places can develop rapidly.

At that time, the Ministry of Petroleum, the Ministry of Machinery, and the Ministry of Ordnance set up factories all over the country, and they all used this method.

Rong Shangguo obviously did not expect Dahua to complete the construction of a ship in nine and a half months.He silently calculated, and said: "If it is nine and a half months, Jiangnan Shipyard can only contract one ship at most. Moreover, the profit is not high, so it is not in line with our original intention."

"Using the segmented shipbuilding method, it is still possible to complete it a month ago." Sioux City is already preparing to spread the segmented shipbuilding method to China Shipbuilding.His purpose of purchasing the segmental shipbuilding method from Ri is to integrate the giant general segmental shipbuilding method on this basis. In comparison, the latter is a more advanced shipbuilding method, and the peaceful shipbuilding method can be called a golden combination.Taking advantage of the time difference, using the segmented shipbuilding method to start with a little bit will benefit Dahua even more.

Moreover, CSSC Bijing is a national enterprise, and its high productivity will always allow the country to spend a little less on subsidies.

Rong Shangguo said uncertainly: "We haven't started learning the segmental shipbuilding method yet, so I'm afraid it will be too late."

"After the equipment arrives, the craftsmanship will not be too difficult, and Dahua will only be able to master it."

Rong Shangguo looked at the glaring breach of contract amount in the bidding brochure, but was still unable to make a decision, and finally said: "Jiangnan Shipyard is going to bid for 5 ships, 1 ship will take 9 and a half months to bid, and 4 ships will take 10 months to bid. It's up to each other."

"That's good." The transaction amount of the five ships will exceed RMB 5 million, which is more than enough for a cooperation project based on the qualifications of both parties.

Dong Feng of the Information Bureau has already pinched his fingers and started to calculate the bottom line of Dahua's own bidding.
