The Military-industrial Scientific Research System of the Academic Master Chapter 442

Chapter 442: Breaking through the high-end resistance

Although he said he would focus on materials, it was obviously impossible for Chang Haonan to contact materials research and development personnel across the country.

The research direction of high-speed bearings is an unpopular one. There are not many research groups working on it in the country, and there are only a few at the forefront, and they happen to be concentrated in a few universities under the Science and Technology Commission system. Put together It's easy to hold a meeting.

But materials, even relatively unpopular metal materials, definitely belong to prominent science (easy articles). There are so many researchers. Even some scholars who are not originally in the field of materials science will join in the fun just to publish a few more papers. If they are published in batches By holding meetings for them, Chang Haonan probably won't have to do anything else in the next few years.

Even if we focus on the industrial end of metallurgy, the number of domestic steel plants...

You have no idea which steel mill has done something weird in which segment.

It is impossible to carry out a large-scale industrial survey in 1997.

Before the information age, doing this kind of hard work, the manpower and material resources mobilized, and the various twists and turns that may be involved were enough to cause the entire industry to go into chaos or even come to a halt.

At this time, we must learn to grasp the key contradictions.

In the entire bearing industry chain, the most concentrated part in China is actually the bearing manufacturers themselves.

The only three companies that can produce relatively high-end bearing products are Hazhou, Luoyang and Wa.

That is, Bingcheng Bearing Group, Luoyi Bearing Group and Fuzhou Bearing Group.

They are all established companies in the industry and have close ties with the upstream machine tool, metallurgy, and precision instrument industries, as well as many downstream manufacturing industries, especially the civilian manufacturing industry.

This is important.

As mentioned earlier, in order to further improve his theory and benefit end users from it, a large amount of data from the industry is required.

But this kind of thing is easy to say, but there is a big problem in doing it.

At present, China's high-end bearing localization rate is as low as 0. How can we get users to trust and start using domestically produced bearings?

The Science and Technology Commission system can indeed provide some assistance, but the models and production capacity of aerospace rockets are ultimately limited, and the usage conditions they are intended for are too monotonous.

For example, the core bearings of a turbofan engine are actually 5-6 sets, and they are highly similar between aircraft engines of the same type, so not much data can be provided.

Compared with the civilian field, which has a wide variety of products and a huge market, the military industry has inherent shortcomings in this aspect.

But the environment in the civil sector is much more complex.

NTN, SKF, FAG and other foreign brands of high-end bearings have formed complete and solid market barriers. Whether from the perspective of stability or profit distribution, users will not easily choose to change suppliers.

This is actually a problem faced by China in many fields -

High-end users don't care about cost-effectiveness at all. As long as they have performance and stability, once they form a habit of using it, they won't change it unless they have to. Price reductions and other means are completely useless.

Even in the previous life, many industries in China, especially basic industries, would not have been so easy to develop if King Dong didn't push it.

So for now, we can only start slowly with state-owned enterprises.

Considering that none of the three bearing groups are affiliated to the Science and Technology Commission and had no business contact with Chang Haonan in the past, the latter finally decided to send a letter of inquiry in the name of the general manager of Torch Company.

To his own surprise, all three inquiry letters were responded to on the same day.

The content of the reply is basically the same—

Send someone to the capital immediately.

Chang Haonan has never seen such an attitude and efficiency in his entire life.

“It went really smoothly beyond expectations…”

Chang Haonan held three faxed reply letters in his hand, with a hint of surprise in his tone.

"Of course. Although our company has not had direct business contact with them and does not belong to the same system, you are a member of the expert advisory group in important scientific frontier fields of the 973 Project. All domestic companies and institutions with some R&D capabilities, how can we You have to give me some face.”

Song Jingming, the office director who sent the reply letter, paid the right compliment:

"Besides, this matter itself is of no harm to them. If I were the person in charge, I would definitely rush to do it, for fear that the other two companies would take advantage of it."

"That's right." Chang Haonan put the things in his hands aside and turned to look at Song Jingming:

“Then Lao Song, please go arrange the reception and the meeting. The specifications can be a little higher, but it must be as soon as possible.”

As the development of Torch Company gradually gets on the right track, other departments besides technology are gradually enriched.

Fortunately, the de-administrative reform of state-owned enterprises has not yet been completed, and even grassroots units can harvest wool from other places.

Song Jingming was transferred from the General Office of the Science and Technology Commission.

For this reason, I even upgraded him by half a level.

Of course, because Chang Haonan is not planning to build a large and comprehensive company, many departments are still relatively thin.

For example, there are only two people in the administrative office including Song Jingming, so many things require his own hands as the director.

There is only one Yang Huimei in the marketing department. Fortunately, she has many graduate students under her, who can help share some unimportant work.

It should be said that Song Jingming's guess is accurate.

When Zhang Xu, the head of R&D from Bingcheng Bearing Group, walked into Chang Haonan's office and found that his colleagues from Luoyi and Fuzhou were already sitting inside, his face turned pale at that time.

If the other two families have secretly negotiated something while he was away, he will definitely not get any good results after he returns.

You know, before departure, the general manager of Ice Axis Group specially called him to the office and repeatedly warned him that although the meeting was small in scale, it was of extremely high importance. The general manager Chang Haonan who presided over the meeting was young but regardless of his ability. The relationship is still very good. All the institutions and companies that had a relationship with this person in the past took off.

To sum it up, if you don't get any competitive technology when you go to the capital this time, then you should stay in the capital and never come back.

In just a few seconds, Zhang Xu had already started thinking about how to find his next job.

At this time, Chang Haonan cleared his throat:

“Since Zhang Gong has arrived, let's get started.”

“I have several technical documents related to bearings here. Let the three of you take a look at them first to see if you are interested in this project.”

Chang Haonan motioned to Song Jingming to send the document to the three people sitting on the sofas on both sides.

Zhang Xu's expression finally softened a little. Judging from his posture, he shouldn't have missed anything important.

However, the relaxed mood did not last for a few seconds when he felt his heart suddenly shrink again after receiving the technical documents.

The document begins as a series of performance requirements for bearings.

As the R&D director, Zhang Xu can see the difficulty at a glance.

High speeds of more than 30,000, operating temperatures of more than 250°C, irregular and extremely high levels of external overload, plus a life requirement of no less than 3,000 hours...

In another situation, Zhang Xu would probably have asked why you didn't go to heaven?

Of course, what he didn't know was that this bearing was really going to go to heaven.

At the same time, the other two people also looked embarrassed.

Although the three of them have their own strengths in specific fields, their overall levels are not much different. Problems that one finds difficult will not be easy for the other two.

“The first requirement is so difficult, what will happen next...”

With this thought in mind, Zhang Xu mustered up the courage to turn to the second page of the document...

“What the fuck?”

The second page is not another technical requirement, but the specific design of this bearing.

In other words, Chang Haonan did not want to give them questions, but let them see the process of solving the problems.

Then, the more he read this document, the more shocked Zhang Xu became.

He finally understood why his general manager had to let him come on this trip.
