With that, Professor Zhao turned his head and looked at Zhuang Jianye: "Xiao Zhuang, I have a heartless invitation."
"You said Zhuang Jianye sat up straight.
"Since Xiao Wu's Xiangzhou factory has been owned by Tengfei group, can you help them with helicopter support?"
After listening to Professor Zhao's words, Zhuang Jianye pondered a little before saying: "can I first understand the specific situation of the helicopter project, after all You know, such a large enterprise.... "
"I understand, I understand..." Before Zhuang Jianye finished speaking, Professor Zhao nodded with a smile: "if you put it in the past, I might criticize you, but now it seems that your practice is still very desirable. At least it can make such a large enterprise eat enough. It's not easy. I'll go back and sort out the specific materials carefully in the evening and talk with you carefully tomorrow."
"Let me see, brother Zhao, don't be so outspoken, just come to our Tengfei group. In this way, your helicopter project can better contact us. After all, we need to determine the target customer group according to the specific situation of the project."
As soon as Professor Zhao's voice was over, before Zhuang Jianye spoke, Liu Chun chimed in and said, "our target customer group is not limited to China. The tm-9 aircraft of the group is very popular in Southeast Asia, so we need to think carefully about what the customer's helicopter needs and what performance it needs."
Professor Zhao nodded frequently, but hesitated: "Comrade Liu's words are good, but I'm afraid my body is..."
"Professor Lao is not worried about this. Not long after our group was established, many organizational structures were not perfect. At the beginning of the year, the newly established Ministry of Aeronautics and Astronautics suggested that we set up an advisory committee to let some veteran comrades and experts with rich working experience check our future decisions.
At that time, the group was busy with the sales of tm-9 aircraft, but it didn't have time to implement it. If Professor Zhao didn't dislike it, how about coming to our group's Advisory Committee as the general consultant? "
In the 1980s, with the advancement of institutional reform, a very peculiar organization appeared in the structure of the party and government organs in China, that is, the Advisory Committee, which was a transitional measure for the transition from the lifelong cadre system to the retirement system at that time.
Other enterprises and institutions have set up their own advisory committees for a long time because of their long years and the large number of leading cadres of their own age.
The problem is that it has been less than ten years since the 23rd branch of Tengfei group was added up to the chief engineer of today's Tengfei group. Leading cadres and front-line employees are all in their prime years, so there is no need for this.
As for the Ministry's suggestion that some cadres from other factories or retired leaders from the ministry can be re employed, Zhuang Jianye pretends not to see it. He doesn't want to make a bunch of idle people to eat dry food. He doesn't like to have that share of money to give more benefits to front-line employees and technicians.
Anyway, it's a suggestion, not a mandatory instruction. Zhuang Jianye doesn't care at all.
But as the saying goes, Zhuang Jianye doesn't want to support idlers, but he is willing to invest in those who have real skills. What's more, Professor Zhao is not a good person at all. It goes without saying that Tong Xia and Wu Ping around him are all over the helicopter field, and they are a whole helicopter research team.
Under such circumstances, recruiting Professor Zhao into Tengfei group is no different from reinforcing itself. How can Zhuang Jianye, who is good at seizing opportunities, let it go.
However, Zhuang Jianye's proposal made Professor Zhao jump next: "general consultant?"
Surprised, and then repeatedly waved: "no, no, too high, I served as an ordinary consultant on the line, the general consultant is too high."
"What's the height of a general consultant? It's not high at all. If you can, I think you can always be a senior party official in our group. " Liu Chun shook his head.
"Lao Liu is right. General consultant, you should be honest. You should know that the most important thing for our group in the future is to develop rotorcraft, otherwise we would not launch d-30-z series turboshaft engine." Zhuang Jianye immediately met the requirements.
Liu Chun nodded tacit: "who said it wasn't? It's a pity that we have no experience and no technology in this field, so we can only waste time here. "
Zhuang Jianye sighed and added helplessly: "therefore, we are in urgent need of a technology leader who can integrate our technical capability and production capability. Professor, you don't want to see these high-level manufacturing capabilities go to waste, do you?"
……
Tengfei group can deceive the two people, pull out a single can deceive the general people lame, two people such a harmony, Professor Zhao has not been how to drop completely dizzy dishes, hesitated for half a moment, finally deep sigh: "well, I personally agree in principle, but also need organizational recognition."
"You can rest assured that I will implement it myself." Zhuang Jianye patted his chest and answered this little matter.
Then they got up and went to see the laser welding workshop next to the electron beam welding workshop. Then they visited several other workshops. Then they went back to the canteen and had a meal of minced pepper fish head, red round fish and steamed fish made by the master himself. Then the guests and the host left happily.From the next day, Professor Zhao and his party were accompanied by Liu Chun to visit the zero degree factory, the R & D center of Tengfei aviation technology, the Tengfei aviation power plant, the flight control research institute and the Huancheng aircraft manufacturing factory, which is a joint venture with McDonnell Douglas.
During this period, Professor Zhao met with the d-30-z series turboshaft engine, the fly by wire flight control system developed by the flight control Institute for tm-9 aircraft, and a series of high-end manufacturing and production equipment for aerospace production.
At the same time, the application materials of the helicopter project of the old professor were also reported to the Ministry. Under the promotion of Zhuang Jianye and the background of encouraging enterprises to develop independently, the Ministry's reply was very fast.
According to the support policy of independent research and development, the ministries and commissions provide a special support fund of RMB 1 million, and the rest is borne by Tengfei group.
In this regard, Zhuang Jianye didn't even frown, because Professor Zhao, who was officially appointed as the general consultant of the Advisory Committee of Tengfei group, had already submitted him a feasibility report on Helicopter Research and development.
Due to the power system, bearings, materials and part of the manufacturing process required by the helicopter, Tengfei group can all be independent, plus Professor Zhao's continuous polishing design scheme for so many years, the development cost of the improvement scheme of zhi-6 is very low.
In this case, Zhuang Jianye happily approved the research and development budget of 20 million yuan, and entrusted the improvement plan of zhi-6 to Professor Zhao, but he had to face more trouble.
Just during the period of the approval of the direct 6 helicopter program, the second phase investment of McDonnell Douglas company was suddenly terminated. Compared with the 20 million yuan of the direct 6 improvement program, the investment of McDonnell Douglas reached 350 million US dollars, which had to be seriously dealt with by Zhuang Jianye.
After several unsuccessful contacts with the top management of McDonnell Douglas company, Zhuang Jianye made an appointment with Liszt. They just sat down in the tea restaurant of the newly built high-end hotel in the center of Xingzhou city. Zhuang Jianye asked straight to the point: "I'm not polite to you anymore. What's the matter?"
With a wry smile and shaking his head, Liszt immediately said, "in this case, I'll tell you the truth. Zhuang, in the face of the gradually out of control and collapse of the domestic economy, how long do you think your Tengfei group can last?"
