Chapter 272： Rare earth exchange equipment five

Now these machines and equipment can be used immediately once they are shipped to Huaxia. At present, the rapid development of Huaxia has not attracted enough attention from European countries. In recent years, with the negative propaganda of the news media, Europeans believe that the Chinese are still living in a semi-primitive society, at least the market has not yet opened to them.

Even the most powerful experts and scholars cannot predict that the future steel gap in the Huaxia market will be so large, and special steel can hardly be produced by itself. Now Bao Zixuan is taking advantage of this unequal time between production capacity and sales to complete the transfer of steel production capacity.

Rehhagel-Thyssen: "Some of the steel plants we have built are basically unused, and can be used for at least 20 years. We can accept this price, but we can only provide you with raw materials for special steel plants, and you can use the rest of the equipment. We have to produce it ourselves. After all, many equipments are prohibited from exporting to China by Batumi, and we cannot take this risk.”

Bao Zixuan: "But there are only raw materials and no technical parameters. I'm afraid that Heiyun's technical reserves cannot be produced. Even if it is produced, it will not meet the requirements."

Rehhagel-Thyssen felt a lot more comfortable when he heard what Bao Zixuan said, and there are things you can't handle. This time I know how powerful German companies are! The industrial base cannot be caught up in a short period of time. This needs to be accumulated over many years, and it is the dedication of several generations.

Rehhagel-Thyssen: "We have also thought about this issue, that is, Heiyun's processing ability should be able to process core components. As for the technical parameters, we can provide, and the rest depends on Mr. Bao himself. After all, there are many The equipment is all products that Batumi fame and fortune prohibits exporting to Huaxia, if Mr. Bao is not a friend of yours, even if there are more rare earth minerals, we would not be able to agree."

Bao Zixuan: "Then there is no problem, I don't need the most advanced equipment in Germany. But it can't be worse than the existing equipment of RB of the same kind. I hope you can satisfy this point. After all, my main market is in Asia, and RB steel enterprises are the biggest competition. opponent."

Rehhagel-Thyssen: "There is no problem with this, RB steel companies can still deceive people who don't know how to do it in Asia. But compared with European companies, it is definitely not good enough. You can rest assured that German steel companies are absolutely technologically advanced. Stronger than RB Nippon Steel and other steel companies, there is at least a 5-year technical gap between the two sides."

Bao Zixuan sorted it out through memory according to the information of the Shanghai Iron and Steel project in the previous life, and upgraded it on this basis. The purpose is to organize the most advanced technology in RB, so that the Germans can understand. Their technical advantages are actually not obvious. In recent years, RB steel companies have conquered cities in Asia, and their strength and technology have long since changed.

After seeing the information, Rehhagel-Thyssen suddenly felt impossible, when did RB have such powerful steel smelting equipment and capabilities. Although Germans and RBs admire each other in the field of industry and technology internationally, they still have certain advantages compared with RBs in the hearts of Germans. Now it seems that they are a little arrogant and arrogant. If they are still as complacent as before Then what awaits them will be to be surpassed. And this time will be very fast, and it may even be realized in the development of the next set of equipment.

Rehhagel-Thyssen: "Mr. Bao, is the information you provided accurate! When did the RB people have such strength? This is inconsistent with the information we have."

Bao Zixuan: "I don't have a background in metallurgy. These are the equipment and technical materials that Nippon Steel plans to export to Shanghai Steel Project. If you don't believe it, you can send someone to RB to investigate, or you can visit Nippon Steel directly. "

Rehhagel-Thyssen thought that Bao Zixuan's identity and status would not lie, and judging from the style of the technical information provided, it was definitely written by RB people.

Rehhagel-Thyssen: "From this data, it can be seen that RB people's technology in metallurgy has indeed improved a lot, but it is still much worse than Germany."

Bao Zixuan: "German companies no longer need to compete with RB companies in Asia, but my steel company's biggest competitor is RB people. I need your support, otherwise it will be difficult to win the market."

Hearing what Bao Zixuan said, the three of them also thought that what they said was very reasonable, but the most advanced German technology was definitely impossible to exchange. We started to communicate with Bao Zixuan according to the plan of 3 people. We can say that Bao Zixuan is very satisfied with the product model and parameters provided by the other party. These devices will not be outdated even in the 21st century. The products produced will have a market at that time, and it seems that the Germans are still very sincere.

However, after knowing the specific situation of the three companies, Bao Zixuan still needs to plan for the future. After all, if you want to enter the heavy industry in the future, you will definitely need the technical support of the other party. It seems that you need to get some more things.

Bao Zixuan went on to say, "I am very satisfied with the technical indicators and performance of these devices, but I hope to get other technology and patent authorizations from your companies."

Rehhagel-Thyssen: "I don't know what equipment technology and patent authorization Mr. Bao needs."

Bao Zixuan: "I need your technology and patent authorization in shipbuilding, complete sets of equipment, bridge construction, etc. At present, German companies have not entered the Chinese market. It is better to authorize us to produce than to waste like this, so the three companies do nothing. You can also get a lot of patent licensing fees every year, at most, send a few engineers to guide, and we will also pay for the guidance. And these products we produce will not enter the European market for 20 years; this is a win-win situation matter."

Seeing Oliver Lehard and Undert Krupp nod to himself, Rehhagel Thyssen smiled and said, "No problem, who made us friends!"

In this way, the four companies have reached a strategic cooperation agreement, but the amount of this transaction is very large. It also involves some Ming sense equipment, which needs to be reported to the German business department for approval. I believe that the status and contacts of these three companies in Germany will be very fast Sure enough, Bao Zixuan was not disappointed. This time, the approval of the German business department was very fast. It only took 2 days to approve the applications of the three companies. . This is something that no one has thought of. In fact, it has a lot to do with the operating difficulties of German steel companies. If it can be exported through technology, it will also be a big profit model.

On June 15, 1980, Düsseldorf, Germany welcomed many world-class media. Bao Zixuan, Oliver Lehard, Undert Krupp and Rehhagel Thyssen held a grand signing ceremony in the reception hall of Rheinmetall.

Bao Zixuan signed his name on the contract on behalf of Bao Huodong Mining Company and the heads of the three companies. So far, the proposed rare earth replacement equipment plan has been successful, and it is even better than expected.

Baohuodong Mining Company exchanged 8 million tons of rare earths, some small CNC machine tools from Heiyun and some cash in exchange for Thyssen, Krupp, and Rheinmetall for a total of 6.8 billion US dollars of steel production equipment and some equipment technology and patents authorized. The transaction will take two years to complete, mainly because the mining volume of rare earths has not met the requirements.

If all these equipments are installed and debugged, and can reach the designed output value, then Baohuodong Mining Company can become one of the largest steel smelting companies in the world, at least in Asia, only RB's Nippon Steel can surpass them.

Seeing that Bao Zixuan on the stage really made things happen, the second son of Huo who was in the audience really didn't know what to say. He just went to Luxembourg for about a week, and he was able to negotiate such an important contract if he opposed it. , and the price paid can be said to be negligible, basically negligible. It seems that there is still a big gap between myself and Bao Sheng, so I must work hard and work harder.
