Rebirth of the Industrial Tycoon

The next day, Ma Dexing brought several officials from the Foreign Economic and Trade Office, and also called Li Weidong, and went to Taifeng Motorcycle Factory together.

The director of Taifeng Motorcycle Factory is named Pang Yunjie. He looks like he is in his fifties. He was a master of production in the era of planned economy, and has won many honors such as model workers.

When Ma Dexing and his party came to the Taifeng Motorcycle Factory, Pang Yunjie had long been waiting at the door with the members of the leadership team in the factory.

"Welcome Director Ma to come and guide the work!" Pang Yunjie greeted him personally.

"Director Pang, we haven't known each other for a day or two, so why bother with such a big battle!" Ma Dexing said with a smile.

"Welcoming the inspection is what we should do. Director Ma, let's go to the conference room first. I will report to you about the introduction of the motorcycle production line." Pang Yunjie said, and led Ma Dexing and others to the conference room .

After Ma Dexing and his party were seated, Pang Yunjie took out the materials that had been prepared and started reporting the work. At that time, there was no such thing as projection. The report work basically depended on dry talk, and the key content also depended on notes.

There is nothing new in Pang Yunjie's work report, which is similar to the foreign exchange application he wrote before. Generally speaking, the current equipment of Taifeng Motorcycle Factory is outdated, and the products cannot keep up with the market. It needs to introduce new equipment and produce new products.

After market research, Taifeng Motorcycle Factory believes that the market demand for scooters has always been very strong, so Taifeng Motorcycle Factory decided to introduce the production line of scooters from Japan.

After a series of investigations, Taifeng Motorcycle Factory locked the scooter production line of Japan's Toyo Co., Ltd., and then after several months of hard negotiations, finally decided to introduce this scooter production line at a price of three million US dollars. .

After Pang Yunjie's report was over, Ma Dexing said a few official words such as "hard work", and then cut to the point.

I saw Ma Dexing ask: "Director Pang, you said before that in order to avoid competition with Mulan, your production line produces medium-sized scooters, and you can also transform and upgrade to produce large-scale scooters. This transformation and upgrading process Is it complicated? How much does it cost?"

"According to the information provided by Dongyang Co., Ltd., if you want to produce large-scale scooters, you basically don't need to make great improvements to the production line. If you spend it, the cost of materials is 200,000 to 300,000 US dollars, and the rest is the labor cost of technicians. "Pang Yunjie replied.

Ma Dexing nodded, and then asked: "Although I don't know much about motorcycles, I also know that the engine is the heart of the motorcycle. The engine you are going to introduce is called TY-12, right? What is the level of this engine in China?"

"This TY-12 engine is a product of Dongyang Co., Ltd. The advantages of this engine are that it has enough horsepower, high torque, mature technology and very good performance. It has been used stably in Japan for nearly 20 years." Pang Yunjie speak up.

"Director Pang, you said that this engine technology is very mature and has been used stably for 20 years in Japan, doesn't that mean that this engine,

Is it a product from the early 1970s in Japan? "A voice suddenly sounded, and it was Li Weidong who asked the question.

Originally, Pang Yunjie only regarded Li Weidong as an ordinary clerk of the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Department, but at this time he was talking to Ma Dexing, and Li Weidong dared to take the initiative to interrupt, which made Pang Yunjie realize that Li Weidong was definitely not an ordinary clerk.

So Pang Yunjie asked, "Who is this?"

Ma Dexing immediately introduced: "This is Director Li Weidong Li, Director Li's company can get tens of millions of dollars in orders from the Canton Fair every year, but he is the star unit of our foreign trade.

You are importing production lines from Japan this time, and there will definitely be some Japanese documents. However, the Japanese translator in our office recently took maternity leave. It happened that Director Li was proficient in Japanese, so I asked Director Li to come along and act as a temporary translator. "

Acting as a translator temporarily was an excuse that Ma Dexing had long thought of. After all, Li Weidong was not a cadre of the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Department, and it was not in accordance with the procedure to bring Li Weidong, so Ma Dexing gave Li Weidong an interpreter.

"It turned out to be Director Li! Director Li is really young and promising." Pang Yunjie felt that Li Weidong was relatively young, so he still did not pay attention to Li Weidong.

"In front of a senior like Factory Manager Pang, I am a primary school student, and there is still a lot to learn from Factory Manager Pang!" Li Weidong changed his voice and returned to the topic just now: "Director Pang, you just said this The TY-12 engine has been used in Japan for nearly 20 years, so this engine is a product from the early 1970s in Japan? Is my understanding correct?"

"Well, it is indeed written in the information Dongyang Co., Ltd. gave us." Pang Yunjie replied.

"As far as I know, after 1985, the domestic motorcycle companies basically no longer introduced the technology of the early 1970s in Japan. Jialing, Jincheng, Wuyang and other companies have recently introduced Japanese technology in the 1980s. The technology of the 1990s, even the small Mulan light pedals of Qingqi, is a product of Japan in the late 1970s. The engine of this Toyo Co., Ltd. is still in the early 1970s, is it a bit too old?" Li Weidong said.

Pang Yunjie frowned slightly, secretly thinking in his heart, Li Weidong said these words, it is clear that he is picking on faults, is he here to smash the scene?

Thinking of this, Pang Yunjie explained: "Although the technology provided by Dongyang Co., Ltd. is relatively early, it is Japanese technology after all, and it is not outdated in China, and the performance of this engine is very superior, compared with state-owned enterprises. The technology introduced by other companies in the 1980s is no less so!”

"Director Pang, I think it's better for you to check this out, but don't let Dongyang Co., Ltd. fool you." Li Weidong kindly reminded.

Pang Yunjie looked displeased: "Director Li has something to say!"

"Director Pang, don't get me wrong, I just think it's a little strange," Li Weidong said.

"What's so strange?" Pang Yunjie asked.

Li Weidong explained: "I really haven't heard of Dongyang Co., Ltd. before, or I may be ignorant, but Dongyang Co., Ltd. is definitely incomparable with Honda, Suzuki, Yamaha and Kawasaki, right?

So the question is, why is the technology of this little-known company, produced in the early 1970s, comparable to the technology of the four major Japanese motorcycle brands in the 1980s? Could it be that the technical level of Dongyang Co., Ltd. in the 1970s reached the technical level of the four major motorcycle brands in the 1980s? I don't think that's possible! "

Li Weidong's question hits the nail on the head.

How can the technology of Dongyang Co., Ltd. in the 1970s be on the same level as the technology of the four major motorcycle brands in the 1980s?

If Dongyang is really so good, then Japan's largest motorcycle brand is Dongyang, and there is no such thing as Honda, Suzuki, Yamaha and Kawasaki!

Pang Yunjie was taken aback for a moment, he really hadn't thought about this issue before.

However, the TY-12 engine provided by Dongyang Co., Ltd. has been tested by Taifeng Motorcycle Factory, and the data is the same as what Dongyang Co., Ltd. said. According to these data, the TY-12 engine is indeed slightly better than the technology of the four major motorcycle brands.

I saw Pang Yunjie pondering for a moment, and then said: "We still need to look at the facts about technical matters. We have tested the TY-12 engine of Dongyang Co., Ltd. many times, and the data is indeed very good. Li Factory I may not be able to give answers to long questions, but the data will not deceive people.”

"Could there be a problem with the test data?" Ma Dexing asked, which is what Li Weidong wanted to ask.

Pang Yunjie immediately shook his head: "There is absolutely no problem with the test. We did not only test it once, but many times. If there is a problem, the results cannot be the same every time!"

Li Weidong frowned again.

"There is no problem with the test, that is, the data is real and effective. What is going on? Does the technology of Toyo Co., Ltd. really surpass the four major motorcycle brands? Is there something I don't know about the TY-12 engine? Technology?"

Thinking of this, Li Weidong asked, "Director Pang, can I see what this TY-12 engine looks like?"

"No, this is the trade secret of our factory!" Pang Yunjie refused without hesitation.

"Then can you describe to me, what's so special about this TY-12 engine?" Li Weidong asked again.

"I said it all, this is a commercial secret!" Pang Yunjie refused again.

At this time, Pang Yunjie really thought that Li Weidong was here to smash the scene. He had already made up his mind that no matter what Li Weidong asked, he would find an excuse to make a decision!

This is also human nature, no one likes others to pick on them.

Taifeng Motorcycle Factory finally introduced a motorcycle production line, which has already been negotiated. Suddenly, a Li Weidong asked this question and that. Pang Yunjie will naturally have hostile feelings towards Li Weidong for all kinds of doubts about this production line.

Li Weidong sighed helplessly and said, "Director Pang, you have imported production lines from Dongyang Co., Ltd., you must know something about this Dongyang Co., Ltd.? Can you introduce the situation of this Dongyang Co., Ltd.? The company profile of the partner. , this shouldn't be a commercial secret!"

Li Weidong's request, Pang Yunjie was really hard to refuse. He took out a document, handed it to Li Weidong, and said, "Director Li, this is the introduction of Dongyang Co., Ltd. in Japanese, you can read it yourself!"

Li Weidong took over the company profile, and only read a few lines, and the surprise in his eyes flashed.

In the next second, Li Weidong already had a reasonable guess in his mind.

"So it is! I have probably guessed what kind of trick this Dongyang Co., Ltd. is playing!"
