We are all reborn, who wants to be the richest man?

Chapter 618 Chapter 617 Blossom and Fruit

In this golden September, the industrial sector of the rabbit has ushered in a moment of great attention, and the focus has coincidentally converged on XCMG Group, making it a shining star in the industry that everyone is paying attention to.

First, by successfully introducing foreign capital as a catalyst, the group successfully completed the change of senior management. This strategic move not only injected a shot in the arm for the group, but also stimulated internal competitive vitality and market foresight, laying a solid foundation for subsequent leaps.

Soon after, a series of cooperation projects emerged one after another like mushrooms after rain.

First of all, Scania, a subsidiary of Audi Group, and China's XCMG Group have joined forces to jointly create the milestone cooperation achievement of China Scania Truck Company.

In this cooperation, both parties fully demonstrated their trust and respect for each other based on a balanced 50:50 equity structure.

Scania, with its outstanding truck manufacturing technology and profound industry accumulation, has injected a strong technological driving force into the cooperation project.

XCMG Group has paved a solid path for the marketing and sales of its products by relying on its extensive channel network and deep local connections in the Chinese market.

The cooperation between the two companies not only achieved the perfect integration of technology and market, but also marked the two sides' firm commitment to deepening cooperation and seeking common development in the context of globalization.

The establishment of China Scania Truck Company not only introduces Scania's advanced truck technology to the Chinese market to meet the country's growing demand for high-quality transportation solutions, but also provides strong support for XCMG Group to expand into the high-end commercial vehicle field and enhance its brand influence.

In terms of the localization of truck operations, Luo Nianzhong's original plan was to acquire a car manufacturer in the economically fertile provinces of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, in an attempt to expand his business territory on this basis.

However, judging from the current market, these automobile manufacturers, far from being trapped by the industry's storms, are showing great vitality and are doing quite well. This has undoubtedly added some obstacles to Mr. Luo's acquisition plan.

There are many automobile factories in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, such as Yaxing, Jiangyang, Yangzi, Yangchai, etc., and they are all doing well.

However, it doesn’t matter if we can’t acquire them quickly and cheaply now. Most of these factories will only have a few more years of good times, so there’s no rush to take them over when the time comes.

The reason why Luo Nianzhong wanted to acquire these automobile factories was that he valued the team of highly skilled workers and the ready-made factory buildings and land resources gathered in these factories.

As for production equipment, he believes that most of the equipment urgently needs to be updated to adapt to and lead future production needs and technological innovations.

So it really doesn’t matter whether it’s a few years earlier or later, just wait for the price to rise.

Following the cooperation with Scania, in early October, Volvo Group was pleased to announce a major cooperation initiative, and will work with XCMG Group to jointly establish China Volvo Construction Machinery Equipment Co., Ltd.

The cooperation between the two parties mainly focuses on the two core areas of excavators and loaders, aiming to lead a new round of development in the domestic and even global engineering machinery industry through the deep integration of both parties' technical strength and market resources.

The establishment of China Volvo Construction Machinery Equipment Co., Ltd. not only marks the deepening of Volvo Group's commitment to the Chinese market, but also indicates that the two sides will open a new chapter of mutual benefit, win-win and common brilliance in the field of high-end equipment manufacturing.

As we all know, Volvo Cars is renowned worldwide for its outstanding safety performance. However, what is less known is that in the grand blueprint of the Volvo Group, car manufacturing is only a part of its diversified empire and can even be said to be a sideline.

In fact, the field of construction machinery is the core competitiveness of the Volvo Group and contributes to the group's main source of income.

It can also be seen from the fact that Volvo Group was able to transfer its automobile business to Audi Group that Volvo does not attach much importance to its car business now, at least it does not regard it as a core business.

The cooperation between the two international giants is not over yet. Only half a month later, XCMG Group announced a big move.

Ermao Kharkov Tractor Plant, a giant in agricultural machinery manufacturing famous throughout the red world in the past, officially announced that it would join hands with Far East Asset Management Company and XCMG Group to jointly establish Xuzhou Agricultural Tractor Co., Ltd.

This move marks XCMG's entry into the field of large agricultural tractors, aiming to lead the future agricultural mechanization process in China and inject more powerful power and efficiency into rabbit agricultural production.

XCMG has been making frequent moves here, as if it is determined to completely establish its position as the big brother of Rabbit Engineering Equipment. Not to mention its peers, even other unrelated companies are drooling over it, with undisguised envious eyes.

Everyone talks about Xu Gong with the same thing: it is better to marry well than to have a good baby.

Although my parents were rich, they also had many children. Now it was different. My husband’s family not only gave me a mountain of gold and silver, but they also almost fed me with food.

What about Luo Nianzhong, the instigator? After acquiring the shares, he did not continue to stay in XCMG, but went all the way north to Binhai.

Since 1988, Dalyan Shipyard has ushered in a historic turning point and has officially embarked on the fast track of rapid development through successful institutional reforms and strategic adjustments.

It is particularly worth mentioning that since the introduction of Polar Bear’s top shipbuilding experts and talents, it has not only injected fresh blood and cutting-edge technology into the shipyard, but also enabled it to take a solid step forward in shipbuilding.

Since then, Dalyan Shipyard has achieved a qualitative leap in technological innovation, product quality and market share with an unstoppable momentum, becoming a shining star in the rabbit industry.

First, it successfully manufactured a Panamax bulk carrier with a deadweight of up to 78 tons. This milestone achievement filled the gap in Rabbit's shipbuilding industry and also brought Dalyan Shipyard to the world.

Because this is the world's mainstream cargo ship tonnage, thanks to the Rabbit's low cost, it has exported a lot of orders and created a lot of foreign exchange.

Subsequently, Dalyan Shipyard launched a highly efficient container transport ship tailor-made for the Panama Canal, which completely established its leading position in the domestic shipbuilding industry.

Because of the high quality and low price, Dalyan Shipyard's business volume continues to climb to full capacity.

In order to adapt to the rapid growth of market demand and further improve production capacity and efficiency, Dalyan Shipyard is intensively preparing a comprehensive expansion plan.

This matter has attracted great attention not only from the province but also from higher levels. It is true that among the country's enterprises that can earn foreign exchange in the manufacturing sector, Dallion Shipyard is second to none.

In addition to these two types of ships that it has mastered, Dalyan Shipyard is working hard to build a 150-ton crude oil tanker, which is expected to be gloriously launched and put into use in the next two years.

This will undoubtedly add a shining pearl to Dalyan Shipyard, become a new profit growth point in its business territory, and lead the company into a more glorious stage of development.

The rapid development of Dallion Shipyard was beyond Luo Nianzhong's imagination, but it was also reasonable.

However, these are not the reasons why Luo Nianzhong came to Binhai this time. He came to Binhai this time partly because of the LNG ship project that Dallion Shipyard is about to launch.

"Mr. Luo, you don't know that in the past, let alone building LNG ships, we have never seen anything like it.

When we bought these materials last year, the height of the materials alone exceeded nine meters. Our technicians have been working day and night on this research, and now it is finally bearing fruit."

Last year, Dalyan Shipyard introduced technical patents from France's Chantiers Atlantique and GTT at high prices, and sent personnel to inspect several shipyards in Europe, Japan and South Korea.

Now that Dallion Shipyard has mastered the paper technology, it's time to get hands-on with the experiment.

“It’s too early to talk about the blossoming and fruiting, let’s wait until it’s built.

I would be satisfied if Dalyan Shipyard could build LNG ships before 2000."

It takes ten years to sharpen a sword. Luo Nianzhong would be happy even if it takes ten years to get results.

LNG carriers are called the jewel in the crown of ships, and this title is not for nothing.

Unlike thirty years later, when a technology that a rabbit could not or was unwilling to produce was called a pearl by foreigners, and even matches became a representative, the pearls of this era were real.

“Let’s talk about the non-civilian ship sector.” The other party did not argue with Luo Nianzhong about his LNG ship issue. He also understood that understanding the technical principles is one thing, and building it is another.

"This aspect is now also a major source of profit for our Dalyan Shipyard. The DL1101 patrol ship we designed and developed has been highly recognized and carried by southern coastal cities.

The maximum speed can reach 50 knots per hour. Those smugglers have had a hard time in the past two years. It is said that they are pointing fingers at us and scolding us.

Apart from some speedboats, there are really no other ships that can rival our DL1101. The orders for this type of ship have been scheduled for a year, but once the shipyard expands and builds a new dock, it will greatly solve our problem of insufficient production capacity."

Smuggling cannot be banned. The speed of a speedboat also means a low safety factor and a small carrying capacity. Unless it is something particularly important and expensive, few people use it specifically for smuggling, so the current patrol ships are sufficient.

After telling the exciting good news, the other party changed the subject and slowly began to tell the not-so-optimistic bad news.

"But there are some problems with the missile boat we imitated?"

"What's wrong?".

"Ships are easy, that's our specialty, but weapons..."

Luo Nianzhong frowned and asked, "Can't Luwu copy it?"

"We don't have the money to copy it."

"What's going on?".

"Well, Luwu is a 50-50 company owned by us and the Equipment Department, and the same goes for investment. But since last year, the Equipment Department has not paid a penny, so I did not approve Luwu's funding this year."

"Nonsense." Luo Nianzhong cursed, "What did Mr. He say?"

Maybe it was due to his own reasons that Mr. He did not go to Baoli but stayed in the equipment department.

"Mr. He said he really wanted to pay, but now his words don't count."

"Promoted?"

"Yes, now I am the deputy in charge of naval equipment."

"And then? No other actions?"

"Actions? If I were to talk about other actions, it would be always asking about the progress of Plan X. But how would I know all this? What's the difference between Mr. He asking me and asking an old lady on the street?"

"Hehe" Luo Nianzhong showed a playful smile "It seems that I have to be Lu Bu for him again."

"Just call Mr. He later and tell him I'm here."

……

Tuchengzi is located in the north of Lushunkou, about an hour's drive from Binhai City.

This is the location of the naval airport. In order to facilitate future test flights of aircraft, Project X, which is the development of new aircraft, was moved here.

The Binhai Aircraft Manufacturing Factory, which was established less than five years ago and is affiliated to the Luwu Equipment Research and Development Company, has finally produced its first product.

X-01 is the code name of the new fighter jet being developed by the Binhai Aircraft Manufacturing Plant. It is also the main reason why Luo Nianzhong went north to Binhai.

"This shape?" Seeing the real fighter, Luo Nianzhong frowned.

"Mr. Luo, you know, 141% of our designers came from Polar Bear. Besides, wasn't our goal at that time to imitate the Yak-?"

Well, for this brother that is 141% identical to the Yak-, Luo Nianzhong knew that it was his own mistake.

I copied it in the first place because I had no other choice. Who knew that I had taken over the Yak Design Bureau and forgot to inform this side.

Another point is reliance. From the original two polar bear researchers to the hundreds now, almost half of them came from the former Yak Design Bureau.

What Luo Nianzhong promised them at the beginning was to complete the research and development of the Yak-141. Who could have thought that it would turn out like this in the end.

Dmytro and Lisov, the two original researchers, have now become the director and deputy director of the institute.

"Well done, both of you."

Luo Nianzhong had seen the genuine Yak-141, and mass production began with his financial support.

Although its flight distance is short, it has a large market in Africa and the Middle East due to its vertical take-off and landing and many record-breaking superior data. Even Russia has purchased 20 of them and plans to equip them on their aircraft carriers for training.

Are 20 aircraft too few? Who told Luo Nianzhong that he would not buy on credit?

After looking around, even Luo Nianzhong, an outsider, knew that the imitation of X-01 was perfect.

"No," Dmytro was obviously not satisfied. "Our X-01 is still not good enough in terms of engine. Now it uses the R-141 from the Tumansky Design Bureau, just like the Yak-79."

Well, it's the engine damage.

"You also have your advantage, which is that it greatly reduces its cost, right?"

The Yak-141 uses alloy and composite materials, while the X-01 adopts aviation aluminum as its main body. The key is that the weight has not increased much.

"But we could have made this aircraft perform better than the original."

Well, these researchers would not understand Luo Nianzhong’s original request to reduce costs. What they pursue is the most perfect work.

"But our customers don't need it, they don't have that much money. The current X-01 is perfect in my opinion."

Knowing that the two were going to make further excuses, Luo Nianzhong interrupted them.

"The X-01's maiden flight will be soon. I know you are very busy, so let's leave it at that for today."

After so many years of blossoming, the fruits have finally come to fruition. Now Luo Nianzhong needs to go back and think carefully about future plans. This is not the time to talk about this with them.
