Honeywell International, Department of Aerospace Industry.

The Ministry of Aerospace Industry was established in 1986 after Honeywell acquired Sperry Aerospace. With the technical materials of the original Sperry Aerospace Company and the increased investment of Honeywell International, it established or controlled more than 20 companies involving aviation, automation control systems, special materials and power, making them the world's leading comprehensive manufacturer of aviation industry.

In the Honeywell Aerospace Industry Department, executives from the Marketing Department and Technology Department held a meeting to discuss orders for China Commercial Aircraft Manufacturing Company.

"From the information sent back by Anderson Foggs, it is obvious that the materials department of Hongxin Group has controlled the manufacturing and large-scale molding technology of new carbon fiber composite materials." The marketing director said, "In the order, this part involves sales of more than 30 million US dollars, and is determined to be cancelled."

"For us, the loss is huge. Aviation Materials' sales in China this quarter will drop by one quarter!"

"What I worry most is not this, but that China Commercial Aircraft Manufacturing Company has also begun to manufacture and sell this material. According to the description, their manufacturing speed is faster than us, but the cost is lower than us, and they will soon compete with us for the global market." said the deputy director of the marketing department.

"I hope to apply for a $1.5 billion R&D fund to invest in the research and development and silk laying machines for new carbon fiber composite materials," said the director of the technical department.

"You can apply, wait for approval from above." A senior executive nodded.

"The most important thing now is how to maximize our interests before Hongxin Group completely invades the field of aviation materials." said the marketing director. "We can't just let go of this order!"

The technical department director said, "Don't they want to ask us to assist in the manufacturing technology of engine blade materials? We can sell some technical information to them at a high price, and say fewer than a few hundred million US dollars."

The marketing director wondered: "This is one of our core technical information, can it be sold to them?"

"Yes, we won't sell the most core information, but some irrelevant technical information can be sold. I think with the technical strength of Hongxin Group, it will be able to be developed in a few years. It's better to sell it earlier and make a profit."

"The company's business intelligence team said that the British Rolls-Royce company is also in contact with the Chinese Commercial Aircraft Manufacturing Company. If they sell technical information to the Chinese, we will not be able to make any money!"

The British Rolls-Royce Company is also known as the "Rolls-Royce". But this company is different from Rolls-Royce Automobile. It is an aviation technology giant specializing in manufacturing aviation engines after the split of the Rolls-Royce brand. It is a major aerospace engine giant specializing in manufacturing aviation engines, and General Electric, the United States and Pratt Whinett Company in the United States are known as the world's three major aero engines!

Not only do civil aviation countries need their aero engines, but some countries’ military fighter jets also use their aero engines.

"I agree with this proposal, and you can also submit it to the board of directors together with the application for R&D funds."

Business activities such as those involving the sale of technology and hundreds of millions of dollars, as stipulated in the Honeywell Company Administration Regulations, require approval from the board of directors.

...

Huaxia Commercial Aircraft Manufacturing Company, Lu Zixin, accompanied by Peng Zhengge and Gao Wei, visited their aviation engine research team.

In addition to being the director of the Aviation Materials Research Institute, Gao Wei also serves as the chief designer of commercial aircraft engineering.

He introduced: "Aero engines can be said to be one of the most complex engineering aircraft systems in human history! The commercial aircraft c919 we have produced currently and the aircraft engines used are all purchased foreign products."

"The military has given us great support in the manufacturing of aircraft engines. We spent more than 10 billion Chinese coins in the development of engine engineering machines alone. And there is still a lot of distance to the core aircraft engine technology."

Lu Zixin deeply agrees with it. He has learned about relevant information. The proportion of aviation engine research and development accounts for about 30% of the total aircraft!

This is just a civilian commercial aircraft aircraft aircraft, and military aircraft is even more difficult! The latest military aircraft aircraft aircraft aircraft engine in the United States has been developed for more than ten years, and the R&D expenses have reached nearly 8 billion US dollars! This is no longer a commercial competition between companies, but a competition between countries in technology and arms!

They have not yet been able to study high-performance military aviation engines, so they can only hope to solve the problem of civil aviation first.

Gao Wei continued: "I won't mention the overall structure issue. Just one engine blade is enough for us to struggle. In the past six months, the Institute of Aeronautical Materials has a major project to overcome the problem of low-pressure turbine engine blade materials for aero engines."

Zhang Ming interrupted: "I saw it in the research institute. Are you preparing to make titanium and aluminum blades?"

"Yes, it's titanium-aluminum alloy material." Gao Wei nodded, "titanium-aluminum alloy has the same strength and stability as traditional nickel-based alloys, but its density is only half that of nickel-based alloys, which can improve fuel efficiency by 20%.

Air fuel consumption is a large cost expenditure for commercial airlines. If the fuel efficiency of 20% can be improved, such an engine will be very popular in any industry.

Peng Zhengge said: "A few days ago, the vice president of Rolls-Royce (Rolls-Royce) in the UK contacted us and wanted to support our titanium-aluminum alloy blade manufacturing technology. But the price was 50 million euros!"

50 million euros, according to the current exchange rate, is close to 400 million Chinese currency. It is still hard to say how much water the other party’s technical support is mixed.

"What surprised me was that Anderson also showed us today that Honeywell was also willing to support us in blade material technology. The price was lower than that of Rolls and Rolls!"

Lu Zixin said: "I think you can reject them directly."

"Why?" Peng Zhengge said, "I think they can compete with each other and lower the offer. Even if we spend 200 million to 300 million Huaxia coins to buy this technology, it is still worth it compared to our R&D investment."

"Because we can solve this small problem, we can reject them, Mr. Peng." Zhang Ming said.

"Professor Zhang, can you solve the problem of the material of the low-pressure turbine engine? " Gao Wei's body was shocked and turned his head and asked.

"Of course, it's just titanium-aluminum alloy. Hongxin's Materials Research Center already has relevant technical reserves." Zhang Ming looked as if he had taken it for granted. In fact, this material technology was also obtained by Lu Zixin from Bruce Wayne last time.
