Chapter 163 The Official Dragon Slaying Sword Bargaining Method

Smith's words woke people up.

Zhao Zhenghe, as the director of the Equipment Design Bureau, was the first to react.

Our own carbon fiber research and development is indeed a bit behind the times, but our own private enterprises have the relevant technology!

What is the difference between having it in a private enterprise and having it yourself?
There are so many cutting-edge technologies in the world. If the government concentrates its efforts on major tasks, it can indeed quickly make breakthroughs in certain cutting-edge technologies, but it is impossible for the government to do everything.

"Old Qian, this is a good thing. Our bureau doesn't have to devote energy to carbon fiber anymore."

"In the field of composite materials, there are many research directions. You can just switch to a research direction that you like."

"I think it would be appropriate to entrust the research on carbon fiber to Guangwei Fishing Tackle Factory." Zhao Zhenghe advised with a smile.

When he said this, I always felt something was wrong.

The name of Guangwei Fishing Tackle Factory is really deceptive.

If you don't know the specific situation, who can connect the fishing gear factory and the carbon fiber production factory together!

Qian Weize sighed, as if relieved.

As long as it is domestically produced, anyone can do the carbon fiber production research.
Li Yunfei looked at the Air Force leader and couldn't help asking, "Leader, does the T700 carbon fiber you want still count?"

"Does our Air Force want to consider the T800 carbon fiber that we are about to mass-produce?"

The Air Force leader shook Li Yunfei's hand again, nodded sincerely, and said, "It counts. How can it not count?"

“T700 carbon fiber is T700 carbon fiber, and T800 carbon fiber is T800 carbon fiber. The two cannot be confused.”

"By the way, what is the production capacity of your T800 carbon fiber?"

This time, he learned from his last lesson and did not arbitrarily state his needs in advance.

Li Yunfei turned his head to look at Admiral Hai. When Admiral Hai heard about the new order, the corners of his mouth were almost crooked with smile.

He looked at the Air Force leader and couldn't help rubbing his hands and said, "The estimated production capacity of our T800 carbon fiber production line is tons per year?"

"Are you kidding me? This is all I have. Who can use it?"

"If foreigners knew this, they would think we couldn't afford T800 carbon fiber!"

"With this output, you have to at least double it!" The Air Force leader frowned and said with dissatisfaction.

Admiral Hai immediately began to explain: "Boss, our T700 is unsalable, so the T800 production line must be reduced."

"Compared to T700 carbon fiber, the price of T800 carbon fiber is much more expensive, 700 per kilogram, while T carbon fiber is only per kilogram!"

Because it has just been successfully developed, the research and development funds must be evenly distributed among the products.

At least in recent years, the price of T800 carbon fiber will not drop significantly, which also means that the cost-effectiveness of this carbon fiber is not high.

The Air Force leader couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

When the Air Force develops fighter jets, it always pursues performance. When has it ever considered price?
Top-notch fighter jets are worth their weight in gold.

No matter how expensive this T800 carbon fiber is, can it be more expensive than its weight in gold?

"Money is not a problem. The only problem right now is that you don't produce enough."

"Don't worry, Air Force. Even if there's nothing else, we will definitely have enough money. Just focus on production. You have to leave us at least 800 tons of this T carbon fiber per year."

The words of the Air Force leader made Admiral Hai realize that he was too narrow-minded.

When a fisherman buys a fishing rod, he may care about the price-performance ratio, but an air force officer certainly won’t care.

"We are your big customer. The price of this T800 carbon fiber is a bit high. You have to bargain for it."

"Of course, you have to cut the price of this T700 carbon fiber."

The Air Force leader's next words instantly poured cold water on Admiral Hai.

This official bargaining style is indeed difficult for manufacturers to accept. If they bargain too much, they will feel bad, but if they bargain too little, things will be difficult to handle.

Admiral Hai hesitated for a moment, and looked at Li Yunfei for help.

"Lao Hai, you have always been in charge of the Guangwei Fishing Tackle Factory."

"You know the specific costs and profit margins best, so I'll leave it to you to bargain."

Admiral Hai felt a great deal of pressure when he heard Li Yunfei's words of shifting the blame.

He swallowed and said carefully: "Leader, we are a small private enterprise, and we must leave some profit margin for ourselves."

"But we also have patriotism. Since it is given to us officials, the price must be the most affordable."

"How about we give a lucky number, 700 RMB per kilogram for T1888 carbon fiber and 800 RMB per kilogram for T6666 carbon fiber?"

The Air Force leader nodded, turned to look at the secretary, and said, "Remember this. When you purchase carbon fiber, pay this price."

"Director Zhao, now that we have carbon fiber, we must also develop new models of our aircraft. I'll leave this to you."

Zhao Zhenghe assured: "Don't worry, leader. This matter will be left to our Equipment Design Bureau."

The biggest difficulty at present is the lack of carbon fiber.

Once the raw material problem is solved and the new model is improved based on the performance of carbon fiber, there will naturally be no major problems given the current capabilities of the Equipment Design Bureau.

At this time, Li Yunfei couldn't help but ask, "Director, does what we said before still count?"

"what?"

"Do you still want our factory's second-hand T300 carbon fiber production line and supporting technical information?" Li Yunfei was a little anxious.

This T300 carbon fiber production line is completely useless to the current Guangwei Fishing Tackle Factory.

There is not much profit margin in production, and low-end carbon fiber fishing rods are not produced, but there is a certain market demand.

If the production line could be sold to the Equipment Design Bureau, there would be no such problem. Moreover, doing so would save a production workshop and leave room for the T800 carbon fiber production line that is about to be built.

Zhao Zhenghe smiled. He looked at Li Yunfei and couldn't help asking, "Mr. Li, have we signed the contract?"

"This all has to be done according to the contract. I don't think it's necessary to buy this T300 carbon fiber production line."

"If we are short of it, we can just buy it from you. It takes time and effort to build it ourselves. Compared with foreign countries, your price-performance ratio is very good."

Although the T300 carbon fiber produced by Guangwei Fishing Tackle Factory costs only RMB per kilogram, the same type imported from abroad costs over RMB .

Even if the Equipment Design Bureau produces it itself, the price won’t be much cheaper than this.

Rebuilding the production line by ourselves is like taking off pants to fart, which is a unnecessary effort.

"Mr. Li, the domestic market demand for T300 carbon fiber has not yet been developed."

"I think you can make a name for yourself through Air Force procurement, and then you will have a steady stream of orders."

"Maybe one production line is not enough, and you have to build a new one." Zhao Zhenghe looked at Li Yunfei, who was struck by lightning, and comforted him with a smile.

After visiting the T700 carbon fiber production line, everyone went to the nearby scientific research building and saw samples from the T800 carbon fiber laboratory.

The Air Force leader took his men on a tour and was about to turn around and leave.

"Xiao Li, you really helped me a lot. Let's keep in touch in the future."

"What good stuff do you have? Don't hide it. It's boring. We in the Air Force are not short of money."

Li Yunfei: “…”

He was naturally aware of the benefits of military-to-civilian conversion, and the sky-high order of 50,000 tons almost made Admiral Hai go crazy with joy.

But I still say the same thing, who would have thought that the carbon fiber fishing rods used by fishermen would also be needed by your Air Force!
"Leader, I have something to ask, I don't know if I should ask it or not?"
