"Mr. Timsey, please come in." Nazarbayev looked at Su Cheng with a wry smile.What is it to come to his presidential palace and not look for the president, but for guests.

This is Halliburton, a world-class petroleum equipment manufacturer. For another company, even Exxon, the world's number one petroleum producer, Nazarbayev would not be so easy to talk to.But in the absence of the support of the Soviet oil industry, only Halliburton can fully support Kazakhstan's policy of establishing an oil country, and Nazarbayev has to take a high look at them.

The vice president of Timsey is the head of Halliburton in Central Asia. To some extent, she has control of the overall oil development progress in Kazakhstan. Nazarbayev begged her for more time, and was asked for more Less, there is a psychological disadvantage.

Su Cheng bowed slightly, apologized hypocritically, and sat on the chair.

Several people were actually a little curious as to why Halliburton was in such a hurry.

Without waiting too long, the long-armed Timsey walked into Nazarbayev's office.

This is a man who looks like an athlete. He has a handsome body with a wide top and a narrow bottom. He stretched out his hand from afar and shook hands with Nazarbayev, Sioux City, and Ayman respectively, and said with a smile: "I don't want to disturb Your Excellency, but I am going back to soil for a meeting soon, and I suddenly received news, so I hope to communicate with the chairman of Sioux City in advance."

His expression and speech are very polite, but just the behavior of going to the presidential palace to find Sioux City shows that he doesn't think much of the president of the Central Asian country.

Su Cheng sighed secretly.Although he is the wholly-owned owner of Dahua Industrial, but in terms of international status, he is not even the vice president of Halliburton.

Nazarbayev couldn't see whether he was happy or not, and said with his smile unchanged: "It doesn't matter, the duty of the president is to serve the public. Kazakhstan is still a country that learns. We need to treat it with a more open attitude. Friends all over the world.”

"Your Excellency, President, is indeed a flag of Central Asia..." Timothy added a few compliments, making the scene a little better.

Ayman stood behind, looking at Timothy curiously and agitatedly. Such a handsome character is not easy to meet even in France.It's okay to look good, what's rare is that you have status and status, and your age is not too old...

After a few words of pleasantries, Timothy turned to Sioux City.He said: "Congratulations to Chairman Su, the research progress of Dahua Laboratory in carbon fiber has exceeded our expectations. I am here this time to extend the cooperative relationship between Halliburton and Dahua Industrial to the field of materials."

Su Cheng listened inexplicably and looked forward to it.Resisting, he said in English: "You got the news faster than I did. To be honest, I don't know the progress of Dahua Lab in carbon fiber."

"We also learned through the patent office that Dahua Industrial has successfully researched anisotropic pitch-based carbon fibers." Timothy did not hide the source. Super big companies like them are searching for patents all the time. .Although it is not enough to be a patent robber, it is always necessary to understand something new in the field.

Su Cheng asked in surprise: "What attracts you?"

"The patent specification has greatly reduced the cost, which is only 10% of the same type of product. Considering your output, the company hopes to purchase part or all of it at a suitable price." Timothy looks like he wants to make a round. .

This is not surprising, the annual production of carbon fiber in the world is very low.As far as a single factory is concerned, those with an annual output of 10 tons of carbon fiber are all big factories.For the newly developed carbon fiber, an annual output of 90 tons is not bad.If it can really reduce the cost by [-]%, Timothy can't wait for as many as possible.

Carbon fiber is a product that is in short supply. Even in the 21st century, the output of carbon fiber cannot meet the standards of mass industrialization.At the very least, this kind of product that can replace steel is far from reaching the production capacity and success of steel.Therefore, every price reduction of carbon fiber can strengthen its popularity, and its popularity actually depends more on its price.

No matter how poor the carbon fiber is, it also has an index advantage over traditional materials. Judging from the demand in the early 90s, even the isotropic pitch-based carbon fiber made by Wang Yun before is still marketable. It’s just a matter of earning more and earning less. .Compared with the isotropic pitch-based carbon fiber, the various indicators of anisotropic pitch-based carbon fiber must have a jump. As for the jump, it doesn't really matter. What Timsy values ​​is only 10% of the cost.

This level of reduction in the price, although it will not destroy the life of steel, but it is not a problem to destroy the life of some precious metals.Judging from Halliburton's annual sales of tens of billions, it is really possible to consume as much carbon fiber as there is.

In the field of petroleum machinery, carbon fiber is a natural hero, with high modulus, high strength and corrosion resistance, each of which is required by petroleum machinery.If not to say that carbon fiber is a revolutionary material, if the cost of this thing can be reduced to a level acceptable to oil companies, it is no problem to replace tens of millions of tons of steel every year, which means that an industry can consume 1000 yuan. annual world production.

While Su Cheng was happy, he patted his forehead straight when he heard it, and thought: The description on the patent manual must have been made by the guy who just jumped over from the national research institution, he must have copied what was given to the domestic patent office.

Before 94, Chinese patents were only for China, and the China Patent Office was also an administrative review department, and it was quite strict.If you don't write "filling the gap in the country" or "reaching the world's first-class level" on your patent application, you can wait slowly if you want to pass the inspection. A year or so is not too long.

Therefore, unlike foreign patent documents, early domestic patent documents not only need to write technical things, but also brag about their own products. Well, the so-called experts and professors don't brag themselves, but the disciples and grandchildren below will also help brag.

But in foreign countries, content such as "greatly reduced costs, only 10% of the same type of products" is dispensable. If it is a specialized research institution, you may also consider bragging about patents to sell for a good price. In my mind, other labs don't write too much to make trouble. Isn't this way of writing clearly to let the buyer lower the price?

If it's true, it's fine. If it's pure bragging, it will become an increase in sales pressure.

Su Cheng thought about it carefully for a while, and said with a smile: "I am incompetent as the chairman of the board. I heard important domestic news from another company. Mr. Tim, please wait a moment, I will call the company Telephone."

Timothy nodded with a smile and picked up the coffee cup.

Su Cheng explained to Nazarbayev again before going outside the door to make a phone call.The presidential line in the room is not convenient for him to use.

It took about 10 minutes for the overseas call to connect to Dahua Laboratory. During this period, Su Cheng also gradually calmed down.

"Su Dong? Is it Su Dong?" On the other end of the phone, accompanied by the noise was a hoarse male voice, and Wang Yun's tone could be heard by listening carefully.

"It's me, I heard that you have made a new carbon fiber?" Su Cheng's voice amplified.At this time, international calls are terrible, at most the level of field calls.

"Yes, we are preparing to report to you that the patent office has accepted our patent, and the anisotropic pitch-based carbon fiber has started the factory test, and the progress is very smooth." Speaking of this, cheers came from the receiver , Needless to say, it was the sound of celebration in Dahua Laboratory.

Su Cheng was full of questions, but was shocked by the sound. After a while, he smiled and said: "Congratulations, you have worked hard."

Doing material experiments is the most boring thing in the world, just like Edison testing filament materials, most of the time in the experiment is non-stop testing.Tested with iron wire, tested with bamboo wire, and I heard that it was tested with a friend’s beard. Each material needs to be tested with different processing methods. The carbonized and original bamboo wire is different, and the test results of iron wire with different carbon content Nor will it be the same.

Under modern technology, there are many ways to reduce the number of tests, but there will always be an infinite number of tests waiting for researchers.

To complete a material update in a very short period of time, in the eyes of laymen, may have hit the big luck, but in the eyes of insiders, it just took more sweat.

Although Su Cheng has never done any real research work, he has a deep understanding of the life of researchers during the five years since he established the Dahua Laboratory.

In such a short period of time to produce anisotropic carbon fiber, Wang Yun and his team are afraid that the number of times they can go home is limited.If not, they would have been able to make anisotropic carbon fiber a long time ago. Why did it take 2 years to make an isotropic pitch-based carbon fiber.

Without the dedication, passion, and self-discipline of Yu Dayu, it is impossible to complete this research ahead of schedule.

Two extra words written on the patent application report are nothing.

Su Cheng decided not to mention this matter in front of Wang Yun, but asked with a smile, "How about the parameters of the new carbon fiber?"

When it came to his heart, Wang Yun on the other end of the phone suddenly became shy, suppressing his excitement and said, "You definitely won't guess."

"so smart?"

"Of course!" If it weren't for extreme excitement, Wang Yun, who is normally calm, would have said it directly. He didn't mention the parameters just now, just to shout out loudly now, and only listened to Wang Yun on the other end of the phone. : "The indicators of the new material are more than twice that of the isotropic pitch-based carbon fiber, 15g tensile strength, 150g modulus, definitely the strongest carbon fiber of the same type, and the first in China!"

"Is it done?"

"It's one-tenth of Rito's."

"It's really only ten percent?" Now it was Su Cheng's turn to be stunned, he thought that the description on the patent application was somewhat watery.
