The Military-industrial Scientific Research System of the Academic Master Chapter 749

Chapter 749: Taking advantage of Türkiye's leverage

“Outside the North Fourth Ring Road…”

Hearing this description, Yao Mengna was immediately shocked:

“Isn't that right next to the school? It must be worth a lot of money, right?”

The Fourth Ring Road sounds like it's very outside, but in fact, with the size and population of Beijing, this place couldn't be considered a suburb even in the 1990s.

If it's the South Fourth Ring Road, it's fine. It's not much different from a large rural area, but the North Fourth Ring Road is still different.

Qinghua, Yanda, Kunming Lake, Old Summer Palace... are all outside the North Fourth Ring Road.

The current Beijing Airlines and the Beijing University of Science and Technology diagonally opposite are just across the Fourth Ring Elevated Road.

“Uh... no.”

Chang Haonan realized that Yao Mengna's understanding was obviously deviant, and quickly waved his hand and continued:

“The land is used exclusively for scientific research sites. Whether it's valuable or not doesn't mean much to me. Besides, now that Torch Group is here, money is mainly just a number…”

The turnover of Torch Group is not high, but as a semi-monopoly group, it is not engaged in an asset-heavy industry, and its rate of return is very scary.

“That's good too. It's a more remote place, which is suitable for calming down and doing scientific research. I've always felt that Beijing Airlines' current place is a bit too lively, and it's not suitable for safety or environmental reasons…”

Yao Mengna shook her head:

Hence, the treatment of Torch Group, from management to researchers, is generally in line with that of major international companies.

“It wasn't until later that I joined Teacher Du's research group. When I went there for the first time, I looked at the old and small children who were right next to our teaching building. I really felt like my dream was shattered.”

However, despite what Chang Haonan said, the excitement in Yao Mengna's eyes still did not diminish.

“That's not what I meant.”

Most ordinary people who are not well-informed have at most heard about the expansion of the Outer Ring Expressway, but have no specific idea.

“Pfft—you alone said all these nice things.”

　　"What if...I have to brag about my own laboratory."

Chang Haonan laughed directly after hearing this:

“Furthermore, how many people are jealous of our school land...you say it's worthless.”

During the meal after his defense, Tang Lintian directly said outside the Fifth Ring Road because he was directly connected with the urban construction and planning department of the capital city. But when it came to Chang Haonan, he still used a concept that is more familiar to ordinary people.

Now, it is not an exaggeration for him to say "I am not interested in money".

Furthermore, although they are second-tier state-owned enterprises, state-owned enterprises in this era generally implement entrusted operations, especially after de-administrative restructuring. As long as profits are guaranteed to be turned over, superior units will basically not interfere in the management of the enterprise.

Beijing's Fifth Ring Road is one of the projects guaranteed for the Olympic bid. It is still in the planning process in 1999, and the groundbreaking will have to wait until more than a year later.

Yao Mengna was teased by Chang Haonan, but she didn't blush. After a short pause, she continued:

"Actually, before I went to college, I always thought that research laboratories were the kind that were located in deep mountains and forests or on isolated islands in lakes, unknown to outsiders. Until my freshman and sophomore years, I I always thought that the school might have that kind of secret laboratory outside the headquarters.”

Although Beijing Airlines is located a little further outside than schools such as Beijing Normal University and Jingcheng Post and Telecommunications near the Second Ring Road, it is not an exaggeration to say that every inch of land is at a premium for its location within the Fourth Ring Road.

This statement makes sense, but Chang Haonan still explained with a smile:

"The outside of the Fourth Ring Road is not the same concept as the outside of the Fourth Ring Road in Yanda... I say outside the Fourth Ring Road because there is only a fourth ring road in Beijing now. In fact, it is quite far. After the fifth ring road is completed in a few years, it should still be It's outside."

“Although it's impossible to exchange that piece of land for money, the higher the value, doesn't it mean the higher the government pays more attention to us?”

“This is also inevitable.”

And Chang Haonan actually has nothing to spend money on.

Chang Haonan sat on the sofa again and sighed softly:

“Actually, when Beijing Airlines, and of course Tsinghua University and Yanda University, were first established, the surrounding areas were not what they are now.”

"It's just that the city is expanding too fast. Just like many airports, it was still a suburb when it was built. It won't take many years to be included in the urban area. Our new laboratory, if you look at it from a distance now, it probably won't last much longer. In the coming years, the surrounding area will also develop.”

“This…isn't the case…”

Yao Mengna had no idea about the outer ring road that Chang Haonan just mentioned, but as an outer ring road being planned, she knew it would be very far away.

This time, the latter did not explain anything.

China's development speed after entering the 21st century is probably difficult to imagine even for today's senior leaders, let alone ordinary people like Yao Mengna.

Is the land approved by Beijing for the Torch Laboratory located further south than the Shahe campus of Beijing Airlines in the previous life? In the future Aobei plate, which is near the Olympic Park, it is just a few kilometers away and has just been developed. In the future, the population will exceed certain A certain super community in a small country…

Moreover, more importantly, as a gathering place for young students and professors, schools actually have strong business potential.

Even if a university town is really built in a deserted place, the market will quickly bring various supporting facilities and industries to the surrounding area...

“But you are right. When planning the new laboratory, we can indeed make some visual and auditory separation from the outside world. Although it is impossible to really build it into the deep mountains and old forests, we can refer to it in terms of atmosphere..."

Halfway through speaking, Chang Haonan got a little stuck.

He originally wanted to refer to the 624th place, but he had been to that place many times. Although it was very high-tech in nature, it seemed ordinary and even a bit old-fashioned.

“Like Cold Spring Harbor?”

Yao Mengna suddenly intervened.

“Cold Spring Harbor is more than ten times the size of our land...”

Chang Haonan has naturally heard of that legendary holy place for biological research:

“But the style can be used as a reference...”

Unconsciously, Chang Haonan and Yao Mengna chatted until noon. Originally, the two of them planned to relive the feeling of eating in the school cafeteria together, but just when they were about to go out, a phone call came in at the right time.

Yao Mengna glanced over Chang Haonan's shoulder and found that the red one should be making the sound.

Confidential hotline.

“The big boss is so busy, I'll go down first and wait for you downstairs.”

After saying that, she signaled to Chang Haonan, then opened the door and left the office.

“Hello, Lao Song?”

This phone was only updated this year and now has a caller ID function, so he can see that the call is coming from the Torch Group office.

“Mr. Chang, I asked the legal department and the archives office of the group to check the things you asked me to check before. There are indeed some findings. Do you want to report it on the phone or..."

Chang Haonan hesitated for a moment:

“Let's talk about it when I go to the company in the afternoon. This matter is not urgent and can only take a day and a half.”

The thing he asked Song Jingming to investigate was naturally to see if there were any bargaining chips on hand that could be used in Turkey.

While using EU connections to exert pressure may be effective, it is definitely not a good idea.

As a result, China and the EU are simply in a state of embarrassment...

Anyway, it is a pure interest relationship. Let alone allies, it is difficult to even be regarded as a comprehensive strategic partner. It is a literal meaning of each getting what he needs. If you ask the other party to help in this kind of thing, you still have to pay something accordingly later.

Secondly, due to the existence of Greece, Turkey's entry into the European Union has been impossible from the beginning. It is completely a unilateral dream. If they wake up too early, it may not be a good thing.

Hence, as long as he is not being unilaterally blackmailed like in his previous life, Chang Haonan still prefers direct negotiations.

If nothing else, judging from the subsequent situation, Turkey can be said to be the most unstable link within NATO.

Although the Chinese Huskies are divided into different groups, considering that today's world order is still dominated by the United States, retaining such a troublemaker is generally beneficial to China.

After having lunch with Yao Mengna, Chang Haonan asked Zhu Yadan to send him back to the Torch Group.

In fact, he could have called Song Jingming to the school, but after all, he had multiple jobs, so Chang Haonan thought it would be better to separate the laboratory and the enterprise clearly.

“Mr. Chang.”

Song Jingming had already prepared the materials. After receiving a call from Chang Haonan, he arrived at the latter's office within a few minutes.

“Tell me, what did you find out?”

Song Jingming opened the information and then concluded:

“The most direct relationship is that Ankara University, Middle East University of Science and Technology, Bilkant University and Turkish Aircraft Industries (TAI) are direct customers of our company's software business department and numerical calculation business department. Among them, Middle East University of Science and Technology has also sent a special Team, come to us to participate in the first computing business training.”

"Um."

Chang Haonan nodded noncommittally:

"Anymore?"

Now is a critical period for TORCH Multiphysics to rapidly expand the market, and it is also approaching the turn of the millennium, when everyone believes most in the openness of the Internet. If you use software licenses to pressure people, although it can achieve the effect, it will do more harm than good, especially It also involves non-profit research institutions.

TAI is a military-industrial enterprise, so it has a lot of room for maneuver. However, if there is a better way, Chang Haonan still hopes to make a fortune silently.

"some."

Song Jingming nodded and then said:

"In October 1996, Ankara announced the launch of a series of domestic production plans for main battle equipment involving the navy, land and air force. However, as you know, they themselves are not very strong in this area, so they mainly use foreign cooperation or The model of imitation production.”

“I know this. The Guardian 1 rocket launcher that the weapons industry previously exported to the other side was copied and produced by them called T300, but this matter should have come to an end. It seems that the Turkish army has no plans to purchase updated models?”

Before Chang Haonan was reborn, he had heard some rumors that the T300 was the production technology obtained through the Varyag incident, but he had asked Rui Xiaoting, whom he had met before, to check it out, and found that this model had not actually obtained a license. Rather, it was simply copied and had been in service since the mid-1990s.

It is true that there is nothing to write about.

“It's true that it's not here, but it is in other aspects.”

Song Jingming explained:

"TAI launched a research and development plan for domestic general-purpose helicopters and attack helicopters the year before last. The cooperation partner was the Italian Agusta Company. Among them, the general-purpose model was AC139, which has about 27 key patents belonging to us. According to the joint research and development that year According to the contract signed at that time, although we cannot restrict the recipients of the Italian side's sale of AC139, we can stop their joint production and technology transfer.”

"that's it?"

This is indeed a good bargaining chip, and the best thing is that Torch Group does not have to directly come forward.

But the weight seems to be a bit insufficient.

Song Jingming shook his head this time:

"At least...that's all that is related to our group. After all, the other party is not a major country, and we have not focused on working there before."

“Okay, let's do this first.”

Chang Haonan motioned to the other party to leave the information:

“Go and do your work.”
