Zhuang Jianye said this very sincerely, but Wahid had no reaction yet. Suharto, who had been staying outside, looked at Zhuang Jianye, Gu Jingyou and other senior executives of Ascendas Group in disbelief.
He opened his mouth to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't know how to open his mouth.
There is no way Suharto was really shocked, that was reverse engineering! This thing is not something that ordinary people can play with.
Although it is just a systematic manufacturing process of imitation and imitation, to put it bluntly, it is a copycat.
¡°But even for copycats, there are high and low levels. Ordinary handicrafts can be made very simple, but the aerospace field is very complicated.
It is by no means that if you have a sample and you can make it completely by just looking at it, it requires quite a lot of disciplines, complex equipment and theoretical calculations to copy it completely.
This process is often accompanied by a long cycle and countless failures.
Not to mention other things, the MiG-21 fighter jet produced in the Soviet era can be regarded as a classic. In order to fight the Cold War with the United States, the Soviet Union used it as an external assistance model, providing assistance everywhere around the world, and even established parts factories in certain countries. , overhaul shop, assembly plant or even a completed production line
But today, there are only a few countries that can completely copy the MiG-21.
Are these countries not willing to do it? Of course not, but sometimes even if the Soviets gave them the drawings, formulas and processes, they still couldn't make it.
The normal production process is like this, let alone giving a component and letting you plan the drawings, processes, proportions and the entire manufacturing process from scratch.
This is like it. An open-book exam is the same as a closed-book exam. The level of difficulty is not at the same level, okay!
This is also an important reason why the maintenance costs of aerospace products will be so high in the future.
To put it bluntly, it is a completely independent business. If you buy my product, if your accessories cannot meet the requirements of the product, you can only buy ours. The price is not yours to decide.
So many countries are really flocking to reverse engineering technology. Who doesn¡¯t want to have a pair of piercing eyes that can make you pregnant at a glance? There is no way, the after-sales supporting parts of almost all aviation products are incredibly expensive. If there is technology like reverse engineering, I will buy back a small part of the parts to study and research, and immediately mass-produce them. If there are some changes in the process, Process, even better than yours.
So even if the original manufacturer is not dead, it will still have to shed some skin!
That¡¯s all. The key is that you save too much cost. But the problem is that if this process is not supported by a complete set of reverse engineering equipment, even if you produce a finished product, it is estimated that the cost of the product will be higher than that of other people¡¯s products, and the gain will still outweigh the loss.
Therefore, only a few countries have mastered reverse engineering technology and implemented strict control. Except for a small number of outdated products with poor accuracy, few high-precision reverse engineering products have been exported.
Ascendas Group is certainly one of these few. Not only that, it also has extremely rich experience accumulation in this field.
The reason for this is very simple. It is due to the years of accumulation and polishing of Ascendas Aviation Maintenance Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Ascendas Group. In addition to Ascendas aviation manufacturing business, it is another time-honored brand of Ascendas. I think it was in the world in the late 1980s. In the process of blocking civil aviation parts, the aviation giants turned the tide and bucked the stubborn policies of the major aviation giants. In the end, they had to re-supply parts.
Not to mention, the price of parts is still 20% lower than the international market.
There is no way, those parts suppliers under the wings of aviation giants have to lower their prices, because without lowering the price of Ascendas Group's copycat parts, not only will their genuine products be removed from the domestic market, but also from the vast international market. All began to shake their dominance.
You must know that the three years from 1990 to 1993 were the most glorious years for Ascendas Group's copycat aviation parts. Take the Boeing 747 flap rotation shaft as an example. The two-meter-long shaft is made of titanium alloy. Whether it is flatness or smoothness, it is also Or in terms of strength, it is actually better than the genuine products produced by the supporting factory in Nevada, USA.
That¡¯s all. The key is that the price is 35% lower than the original product.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? together with the genuine parts factory in Nevada are ashamed to think that their products are fake.
With such high quality and low price, genuine goods are sold out in seconds, who wouldn¡¯t want it among the major airlines?
Of course they are flocking to it like birds of a feather!
But Boeing doesn¡¯t admit it, and they still have to support the genuine factory no matter what. But like the married woman next door, even if she knows that there is no result, she can¡¯t resist the elated Lao Wang next door who is pushing hard. Come on, as long as the car can run fast, no matter what the outcome will be in the future?
The major airlines have the same idea. As long as the planes can fly, the airlines' costs can be reduced, regardless of where the parts are produced.
So major airlines openly purchase a small batch of Boeing-specified parts. The rest are all copycats or knockoffs branded by Ascenda Group, so much so that even Boeing¡¯s most senior aerospace engineers can¡¯t tell which one is real and which one is fake.
As a result, Boeing at that time called Ascendas Group internally, not "Tengfei" or "t", but borrowed the name of an NPC in the game "King of Copycat"!
Even the king of copycats has emerged, so counterattacks are inevitable. At the most, Ascendas Group received a total of 47 legal actions from 12 countries. However, no matter how they counterattack, the quality of Ascendas Group¡¯s copycat aviation parts is there, and the market¡¯s Wherever the huge demand is placed, in the end it will only make those so-called genuine products powerless and helpless.
Airbus encountered a similar situation. Not long after its 330 was launched in the 1990s, Ascendas Group was able to produce more than 60% of important parts. Not only was the quality good, but the price was at least 25% lower than genuine European products. %.
The supporting factories of Airbus are all hating the company. In addition to filing lawsuits against Ascendas Group through formal channels, they even launched a price war with Ascendas Group. The result was, of course, a complete failure.
Because the Ascendas Group, in addition to high-end 3D production-increasing printing equipment used to manufacture high-end complex parts, has already formed a set of low-cost reverse engineering imitation technologies after years of research.
Based on this, Ascendas Group not only solved the shortage of spare parts and maintenance problems for domestic civil aviation aircraft, but also made its aircraft maintenance business very profitable. It even once occupied the formal international market through exports.
What¡¯s more important is that this technology has also significantly reduced the maintenance costs of the domestic air force.
You know, at that time, the country had just introduced Su-27 fighter jets. At first, Russia, which had just disintegrated, was still full of idealism and gave the country a lot of preferential treatment.
But later, the Russians, who had been severely beaten by the market economy, became shrewd and began to pay close attention to maintenance. They even hoped that all domestic Su-27 overhauls would be carried out in Russian overhaul factories.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: Full cycle overhaul is the biggest oil and water in aircraft maintenance.
So at that time, there was no way at all in China, because the parts of the Su-27 could not be produced domestically, and some of them had not even been seen before. Even if there was an assembly plant, the core components were still provided by Russia. So he became the head of the headquarters. So he went to Zhuang Jianye and asked him directly: "Since you can copy parts of civil aviation airliners, can the Su-27 do the same?"
Zhuang Jianye¡¯s answer at that time was simple and direct, just two words: ¡°Yes!¡±
