Chapter 106: Research and Development Takes Only One Second

"Xiao Li, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

As Li Yunfei listened to the director's words, his face became uglier and uglier, and it felt like thousands of horses were galloping through his heart.

You bastard, how dare you slander me!

Our factory produces an aircraft carrier arresting cable, and you quote a price of 30 US dollars for each cable. Now you sell it to us, how dare you quote 1 million US dollars?
Where is your face? You don't even care about your face. How is this different from robbery?
Zhang Shaozhong patted Li Yunfei on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Li, if you feel uncomfortable, go to the hospital after the meeting."

"This body is the capital of revolution. You young people just don't take care of your body. You can go to bed early and get up early, and keep exercising."

Hearing this, Li Yunfei shook his head and said, "Director, I'm fine. I saw the tender document."

Hearing this, the director was relieved and advised: "Xiao Li, I know this aircraft carrier arresting cable, and its production requirements are very high."

"This tender document has nothing to do with the steel plant under your name, and you don't have the production technology. Just take a look at it."

"We can make this little gadget sooner or later!"

Li Yunfei shook his head again. His action finally aroused the dissatisfaction of the bureau chief.

Snapped!
Zhang Shaozhong reached out his hand, patted the back of Li Yunfei's head, and said, "Xiao Li, you young people must have confidence!"

"The country will have to hand it over to you in the future. It's just making an arresting cable for an aircraft carrier. What's the big deal? Do you have so little confidence?"

Li Yunfei covered the back of his head with his hands, a helpless expression on his face.

He was about to cry and said helplessly: "Commander, it's not that I don't have confidence in us, what I mean is that although we can build this aircraft carrier."

"Xiao Li, don't you dare say such nonsense!"

"This is cutting-edge technology. How come I don't know that your steel plant has this capability?" Zhang Shaozhong asked in a low voice.

"Boss, how can you not believe me?"

"The arresting cables for aircraft carriers in the United States were supplied by us."

"But they didn't tell us about the aircraft carrier arresting cables, but the airport arresting cables, which are used to prevent the aircraft from sliding off the runway."

"I am very familiar with the performance of this arresting cable. Its strength is 1500 MPa and its elongation cannot be less than percent."

"The yield strength reaches 0.85, and the service life is 100 to 120 times." Li Yunfei talked about this.

Although he looks down on this project now, it was one of the largest projects in Huayang Iron and Steel Plant at that time.

Li Yunfei followed up the entire process from negotiation to contract signing, and even took the initiative to help solve many technical problems in the production process on the US side.

He was curious at the time. The sun rose from the west. Why did the United States change its personality and become so helpful?

It now seems that the profit margin of the barrier rope is small, and the other party is not interested in it. However, they still have to produce it, so they outsource the product to themselves.

Wonderful, really wonderful. I probably never dreamed that this project would be outsourced to the American Austen Steel Plant.

Today, I will sit at the bidding site for the arresting cable of my own aircraft carrier and discover this secret.

When Zhang Shaozhong heard what Li Yunfei said, his first reaction was that it was nonsense. Then he picked up the bidding document for the barrier cable and read it carefully.

I don't know if I don't see it, I'm startled when I see it.

The data marked above are basically the same as what Li Yunfei said, and many of them are even slightly lower.

Although the two of them were sitting in the last row of the conference room and in the corner.

However, the commotion still attracted a lot of people's attention.

Among them were the naval leaders and Director Zhao Zhenghe.

"Lao Zhang, Xiao Li, the two of you should stop holding small meetings downstairs. We don't do this in the Equipment Design Bureau. If you have anything to say, just bring it up on the table and talk about it."

"If there are any technical problems, we can communicate with each other and maybe solve the problem on the spot." Zhao Zhenghe was the first to speak. He immediately set the tone for the matter, wanting to resolve it by making it a small matter.

The navy leader said with a smile: "Old Zhao, you are the only one who protects your children. What can I do to them?"

"You two, if you have anything to say, just speak out openly."

When the two heard this, they looked at each other and stood up.

Li Yunfei took the tender for the aircraft carrier arresting cable and said, "Leader, Director, the tender for the aircraft carrier arresting cable has been accepted by Huayang Iron and Steel Plant under my name."

"How many arresting cables do you plan to use for this aircraft carrier?"

His words instantly set off the conference room.

"Young people nowadays are really brave."

"I've never heard of Huayang Steel Plant. Do they have this capability?"

"They are very famous on the Internet. If they are rich, they are Rheinmetall, if they are poor, they are Huayang Steel Pipe. Old Zhu, you have never heard of them?"

"The steel mill that sells gas cylinders and seamless steel pipes in the Middle East? Are those the same thing as aircraft carrier arresting cables?"

"Young man, don't be too impetuous and make big promises. The arresting cable for an aircraft carrier is not that easy to make. Don't be too greedy for money. It will be embarrassing if you can't get it out when the time comes."

Zhao Zhenghe listened to the discussion, looked at his nephew, nodded and said: "Xiao Li, it's good that you have this confidence, but you should do everything within your ability."

"Have you seen the data on this aircraft carrier's arresting cable? Take a good look and see if you can all meet the standards?"

"Each of these technical requirements is a hard indicator. If something goes wrong, you will be held responsible."

Li Yunfei put down the letter of responsibility and said confidently: "I can issue a military order and I will definitely meet the standards!"

"After all, the arresting cables for the US aircraft carriers are also supplied by us, so the data indicators are not low."

"They lied to me and said it was an airport arresting cable, and we didn't suspect anything."

When everyone in the conference room heard this, their brains seemed to explode.

They could understand every word Li Yunfei said, but when they were put together, it became confusing.

This aircraft carrier arresting cable, isn't it the United States that is strangling us? Why are they also supplied by us?
This is reality, not a stage play. How could there be such a reversal?

The naval leaders looked at Li Yunfei at this time as if they saw a gold mine.

He quickly walked down the podium in the conference room, came to Li Yunfei, and asked seriously: "Comrade Xiao Li, is what you said true?"

"Don't worry, boss. I'm responsible for what I said. I'm a real man and I'll stick to my words."

"The aircraft carrier arresting cables in the United States are supplied by us. The company there is called Oss Steel Plant. We have been cooperating with them for three or four years."

"I didn't expect that they have been cheating us. They only gave us 300,000 US dollars for one. It's too rip-off." Li Yunfei said indignantly.

After hearing this, the naval leaders were basically certain that the other party was telling the truth.

The main supplier of arresting cables for aircraft carriers in the United States is the Aus Steel Plant, which accounts for 70% to 80% of the supply.

The internal purchase price of one arresting cable for this aircraft carrier is US$1.5 million. The US$300,000 is indeed a bit too much.

"Xiao Li, don't get excited. Sit down and tell me what's going on."

“I said there would be surprises in the bidding for the civilian market. Just look, we successfully developed the high-tech aircraft carrier arresting cable in just one second.” The naval leader said with a beaming face.

Li Yunfei was still indignant and said: "Leader, since this aircraft carrier arresting cable is made in China, should we attack the US's neck?"

"Those bastards actually cheated us for so many years. They are so cruel. They only gave us $300,000 for one. That's too much!"
