No wonder Liszt is like this. He is the one who advocates putting aside Tengfei Factory and looking for other partners.
It¡¯s not that he has any prejudice against Tengfei Factory, but because of a businessman¡¯s instinct to control risks. After all, H Company is not a pure aviation manufacturing company, not even a genuine aviation design company.
His only advantage is the integration of avionics systems.
Therefore, Lister¡¯s positioning for H Company is very clear, which is to strive to become a real aviation manufacturing company. Even if it cannot achieve this goal in a short time, it must strive to make progress in aviation design and technology research and development.
In this way, H company can occupy the uppermost reaches of the aircraft industry chain, like a super alliance leader, looking for partners around the world to serve its products.
It can be said that Lister¡¯s thinking is correct, and his concept is even more advanced. Thirty years later, Boeing will be the global OEM of the 787 aircraft. At this time, Lister is ready to implement the company¡¯s strategy effectively.
For Lister¡¯s idea, the board of directors headed by Lindemann strongly agreed. They established H company for no high-sounding reasons, but in fact they were pursuing high profits.
Is it possible to set up a factory in the United States?
Of course it is feasible, but the problem is that labor costs in the United States are getting higher day by day, and coupled with the numerous restrictions on labor unions, there are simply not too many unpleasant things to do in running a factory.
This is why in the 1980s, the trend of moving manufacturing abroad in the United States has not stopped. Labor costs are high, taxes are not low, and labor unions are constantly having troubles, causing profits to shrink sharply.
Rather than wasting money in the United States, it is better to go outside and take advantage of other countries¡¯ cheap labor, preferential tax policies, low land prices, and environmental policies that are better than nothing to expand your profit margins.
h company does not have an aircraft manufacturing plant, but it has a discovery-1 drone assembly plant and avionics system integration workshop.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? away from the company
It turned out that the ruthless facts almost made the faces of Lindemann and others swollen.
In less than two years, the local trade union has already made three demands for salary increases. Are you going to refuse to agree? I won't promise to strike every minute to show you.
That's it. Workers' working hours are strictly controlled within 6 hours, and workers are not allowed to interfere with their personal affairs during working hours. In other words, workers can listen to music when they want to, and dance to disco whenever they want. If you want to flirt, just flirt. If you want to play black and have fun, then just play black.
Factories must respect workers¡¯ choices.
Not only does the worker have to pay in full for his or her own medical insurance, but the whole family also has to pay in full for their medical insurance. You know, Americans have a big family, not two or three children. , you still have the nerve to call yourself an American?
Company h has more than 200 workers, but it has to pay full medical insurance for more than 1,000 people.
Not paying? Not only will we strike you every minute, but the endless lawsuits will directly make you vomit in trouble.
Then ethnic minority groups came over and asked you to hire a certain proportion of minority workers, otherwise you would be racially discriminatory; feminist organizations also came over and asked you to hire a certain proportion of female employees, otherwise it would be sexual discrimination ¡
This is true for a small assembly plant, let alone a real aviation manufacturing plant.
Therefore, the UAV production line that Company H obtained from IAA Company does not plan to be placed in the United States. Instead, it plans to build an OEM factory in neighboring Mexico to reduce costs.
Precisely due to various domestic reasons in the United States, Lister's development ideas are exactly what the board of directors of H Company wants. Standing at the top of the industrial chain and leading the global production of products, it saves trouble and earns excess profits. Why not do it? ?
It's just that Boeing can do this, McDonnell Douglas can do it, and Apple can do it a few decades later, but H Company can't. The reason is very simple. At the top of the UAV industry chain, in addition to it, it also has a Tengfei factory, and In a sense, without Tengfei Factory, there would be no H Company.
This made H Company, who was preparing to stand at the top, extremely embarrassed. He had just yelled at his younger brothers all over the world, and when he looked back, Tengfei Factory slapped him and told him, you made a mistake, try again, tears streaming down your face!
Therefore, weakening or even eliminating the Tengfei Factory has become inevitable for H Company¡¯s future development. Therefore, after H Company received an order from the Ministry of Justice and successfully obtained the U.S. Army¡¯s ¡°Pioneer¡± UAV pre-research contract.
Liszt, who felt that his wings were hardened, began to make a bold move with Tengfei Factory with the tacit approval of the board of directors.
It never occurred to him that his side had just been completely cut, and the magazines produced by Tengfei Factory were all placed in front of him. Even magazines would belittle the two things in front of him, with exquisite pictures, shocking layouts, and well-printed pages. Yes, it is clearly a product brochure carefully crafted by Tengfei Factory.
"Sir, look, here is a paper introducing the latest model of the TY-2 UAV platform. It talks about a technology called pine-hole wings. You must know that this technology is McDonnell Douglas' original energy-saving technology. They applied it to the latest DC-10 passenger aircraft, and test flights proved that this technology can reduce fuel consumption by 40%"
Owen held one of the magazines and explained the contents carefully. Liszt's mood was extremely complicated. Apparently, the Tengfei Factory's ty-2 improved model has a higher lift coefficient by reducing the weight of the fuselage structure. The new wing adopts new energy-saving technology, and its comprehensive indicators have reached the index parameter requirements of the U.S. Army, and even slightly exceeded them.
If possible, does Liszt really want to say that there are no other products besides Tengfei Factory? Maybe it will happen in a year or two, but at this moment, Tengfei Factory is really just Scorpion Baba.
No, h company is too small to withstand the tossing of those giants; no, there are always people hiding behind it at the top of the industry chain, and no one will feel comfortable.
To use or not to use maybe it¡¯s not a question anymore!
"Here's a check for ten thousand dollars, take it!" When Irving finished introducing one magazine and was about to introduce another, Lister took out a check from the drawer, filled in the number and signature, and handed it over. to Owen, who then let an ecstatic Owen leave the office.
"Then Liszt leaned slumped on the office chair. He didn't know how long he thought about it. Then he picked up the phone and dialed a number. When the call was connected, he said, "Isn't Mr. Lindemann back yet?"
¡°It¡¯s me, say it!¡± Lindemann¡¯s words on the other end of the phone were as firm and powerful as ever.
"Yes, sir, Owen just gave me two magazines. I found that we can't do without the Chinese now." Liszt got straight to the point and said it very directly.
Then there was silence on the other end of the phone. After five or six minutes, Lindemann's plain voice finally came from the receiver: "Since we can't live without each other, then hug, I believe you will handle it well."
¡¡
In the Special Economic Zone, Zhuang Jianye had just gotten off the train when he received the news that Liszt was about to arrive in the port city. He couldn't help but rub his tired face and said to Lin Guanghua next to him: "I hope I can hug Liszt for a little longer this time "
