"Direction Shipbuilding will have more and more LNG orders in the future, and it will be difficult for us alone to meet the market demand."
Yao Yuan smiled and said, "We are building the world's largest shipbuilding base on the East Coast Island, which has the ability to build six ultra-large LNG ships at the same time. It will serve as the main construction base for 300,000-ton giant ships."
"Even so, our production capacity still cannot keep up with market demand."
His understatement shows that he is extremely optimistic about the future LNG ship market. Otherwise, how can he judge that "there will be more and more orders"?
"Therefore, Direction Shipbuilding needs to spread LNG ship technology to its domestic counterparts and form a shipbuilding consortium with deep cooperation. Dalian Shipyard and Minjiang Shipyard are the partners I selected for cooperation. Director Fang has already agreed to cooperate. In the original
Just add some terms on the basis of cooperation. What about Dalian Shipyard?" Yao Yuan asked.
Hu Bo quickly asked, "Is technology diffusion paid or free?"
After asking, he came back to his senses. Sun Yimin was the leader and he should be the one to ask the questions.
Sun Yimin felt strange that if Yao Yuan wanted to talk, there was actually no need to ask Hu Bo to come with him. He was the one who made the decision. Just talk to him. And Yao Yuan must be very clear that even if the top leader agreed, the leadership team would still need to hold a meeting to discuss after returning.
Only if you pass, the top leader is not just a man of words.
There are very few top leaders like Fang He who have the great prestige to make the final decision.
But Yao Yuan asked Hu Bo to come with him. There must be other considerations involved.
Yao Yuan did not answer Hu Bo's words, but looked at Sun Yimin.
Sun Yimin thought for a while and said, "Mr. Yao, first of all, Dalian Shipyard is very willing to cooperate with Fangfang Shipbuilding. Regardless of whether the technology diffusion is paid or free, I think we can accept it, but I don't know how to cooperate specifically?"
Dalian Shipyard is short of foreign exchange but not short of money. To put it bluntly, even if there is not a penny in the account, Sun Yimin can still get tens of millions of Chinese coins. As a core enterprise under the Shipbuilding Industry Corporation, it is very difficult for Dalian Shipyard to ask for money.
Easy.
Accepting the diffusion of technology from others for free means making greater concessions in cooperation, and conversely, it can ensure one's own initiative.
Sun Yimin was telling Yao Yuan in a subtle way that cooperation is possible, and we very much hope to cooperate, but we cannot make concessions on the condition of free diffusion of technology. We can pay for it.
This is a bit like judging a gentleman's heart with a villain's heart.
Fang He said, "Mr. Sun, Mr. Yao will not let you sign any contract agreement that is 'a loss of power and an insult to the country.' Compared with the draft cooperation agreement you signed with Kawasaki Heavy Industries, what Mr. Yao gave us is a cooperation of equal status."
Sun Yimin looked at Fang He. This man was a typical fisherman in coastal areas. He did not look like the director of a state-owned shipyard at all, nor did he look like the legendary man who led thousands of employees to successfully transform a medium-sized shipyard on the verge of bankruptcy and turn it into a profit.
State-owned entrepreneurs of color.
But they are right. In the draft cooperation agreement previously signed by Dalian Shipyard and Kawasaki Heavy Industries, many clauses fully reflected the asymmetry in the status of the two parties. Dalian Shipbuilding has basically become Kawasaki Heavy Industries' segmented construction plant in China.
This is "losing power and humiliating the country". You must know that Dalian Shipyard, like Jiangnan Shipyard, is the oldest shipyard in China and the leader of the shipbuilding industry.
Sun Yimin kept silent and sighed softly.
He didn't want to do this, but the Chen family put a lot of pressure on him, so he had to do it.
It is meaningless to talk about this at this time. In the future, the Chen family will not be able to influence Dalian Shipbuilding, and his grandson Yimin will no longer be a vassal of the Chen family.
Yao Yuan said, "The principle of cooperation is mutual benefit and reciprocity. Based on this principle, there is a big principle, which is conducive to the development of our country's shipbuilding industry and the development of the national defense industry. Dalian Shipbuilding is currently working on the Varyag
Renovation and continuation of construction is the most important task. As you know, Mr. Sun, we are also involved in the renovation and continuation of the Varyag."
"I often communicate with Mr. Zhan on the phone about the progress, and Chunfeng Academy of Sciences is one of the main design units." Sun Yimin said.
As he guessed, it was precisely because of cooperation on military ships that Yao Yuan gave priority to cooperation with Dalian Shipyard instead of Jiangnan Shipyard.
Yao Yuan said, "The army has basically made it clear that one of the builders of the new frigate is Minjiang Shipyard, so you two have a heavy responsibility. The diffusion of your technology is also an agreement between the Chunfeng Academy of Science and the army. This
Of course there will be no charge.”
Waving his hand, Yao Yuan said, "Okay, let's not talk about this. Mr. Sun, Mr. Hu, let's talk about yours first. You need to reorganize your structure, establish the military ship division and the lng ship division, and separate these two key areas.
Come out. This means expansion, equipment updating, and production transformation of the dock and workshop. Chunfeng Academy of Sciences will give you technology, and Southern Industry will give you funds."
"What are the conditions?" Sun Yimin asked, "If I want to invest in Dalian Shipbuilding, I personally cannot make the decision, and it can be said that there is great resistance."
Yao Yuan shook his head and smiled, "Director Xia asked me if I wanted to participate in the joint-stock reform of shipbuilding industry and shipbuilding industry, but I refused. If I want to buy a stake in your Dalian Shipyard, I will not talk to you. I am not interested in participating in the joint-stock reform of state-owned enterprises.
"
"Mr. Yao, what conditions do you have?" Sun Yimin felt that he was being too sentimental. However, there must be harsh conditions for so many good things.
Yao Yuan pointed at Fang He and said, "Minjiang Shipyard is going to build a new factory area. It is very large. I hope it can be completed and put into production within a year. With the current situation of the direction shipbuilding and Minjiang Shipyard, it is difficult to spare manpower.
.My condition is that Dalian Shipbuilding will provide free assistance to build the new Minjiang Shipyard plant and it will be completed within one year. Mr. Sun, is this condition not excessive?"
Sun Yimin said in surprise, "If the direction of shipbuilding is Minjiang Shipyard?"
Fang He said, "The shipbuilding industry has started the agenda of transferring the entire Minjiang Shipyard to Rongcheng City. This matter is basically finalized. After the transfer, Minjiang Shipyard will carry out joint-stock reform and introduce Direction Shipbuilding as the controlling shareholder.
To achieve the goal of joining forces and becoming bigger and stronger, the Rongcheng City Government has approved the plan."
Sun Yimin and Hu Bo were both stunned. Minjiang Shipyard's move was too fast! And the move was very radical - it had introduced private capital, and it was a controlling party.
Joint-stock reform is the only way for state-owned enterprises, and Dalian Shipbuilding will have to do it sooner or later. The question is whether to introduce state-owned capital or private capital, or diversify. There is still some debate among decision-makers.
The top leaders in Rongcheng City are courageous.
As for the shipbuilding industry handing over a division-level enterprise to the local government, it is really not a big deal. Shipbuilding industry and shipbuilding industry are both super state-owned enterprises with hundreds of thousands of employees each, and there are countless division-level enterprises below them.
Moreover, Minjiang Shipyard has become closer and closer to the local government in recent years, and has gradually drifted away from the Shipbuilding Industry Corporation. It is difficult to stay even if you want to. Furthermore, the top leader in Rongcheng City is a ruthless character. He spoke, Shipbuilding
Industry also dare not stay.
Anyway, it's a subordinate company that doesn't listen to greetings, so it will be handed over as soon as it is handed over.
In recent years, there have been too many examples of large state-owned enterprises and the military handing over enterprises and institutions to local governments, such as schools, hospitals, factories, etc.
Some regard it as a burden and leave it to the local government, while others transfer high-quality assets to the local government according to orders from superiors to support local economic construction.
This kind of thing is not new at all, so there is no suspense for Minjiang Shipyard to break away from the shipbuilding industry system.
Sun Yimin considered it and said, "If we just help build a new factory, there is no problem in principle. We have enough manpower and engineering equipment, but the funds for the construction..."
"Mr. Sun, I will handle the funds myself," Fang He said.
"That's no problem." Sun Yimin was also very happy.
As long as it provides some people and engineering equipment, Dalian Shipyard can easily mobilize a construction team of several thousand people. If it doesn't have one, it can borrow it from a brother company. It is a state-owned enterprise with a nationwide system. It is not very familiar with organizing and mobilizing construction aid.
No wonder Fanghe and Minjiang Shipyard are so valued. It turns out that Fanghe and Fangfang Shipyard are already a family.
Thinking this way, Sun Yimin and Hu Bo became more accepting of Dalian Shipyard's failure to obtain foreign exchange settlement qualifications.
Obviously, it is impossible for Yao Yuan to pay such a high price just in exchange for Dalian Shipbuilding's assistance in building the new Minjiang Shipyard area. This is only the basis for cooperation. Without these, everything else is just a cloud.
Sun Yimin also has a clear understanding of this.
He took the initiative to bring it up.
Instead of waiting for others to tell you, take the initiative.
Yao Yuan said, "There are no specific requirements for Dalian Shipbuilding. This is a long-term cooperation agreement. Specifically, our two companies will appear as a consortium in the international market in the future to maintain consistency in actions. Of course, it is limited to military ships."
, lng ships, cruise ships and other high-end ship fields. For other ships, everyone still does their own thing."
This is also beneficial to Dalian Shipbuilding.
When it comes to the ability to compete for orders in the international market, no shipyard can compete with Directional Shipbuilding.
Yao Yuan said, "But there is one thing. The technology spread to Dalian Shipbuilding is only allowed for personal use. You cannot spread it any more. Otherwise, you will have to charge patent royalties in accordance with the patent law. We will retain this right."
He took out a thick contract from the drawer and handed it to Sun Yimin, "The details are all here, Mr. Sun, take it back and think about it carefully and unify internal opinions as soon as possible. We are racing against time now."
Sun Yimin accepted the heavy contract and said, "Okay, I will do it as soon as possible."
After a pause, he asked, "After cooperation, will we be given more for the subsequent 3.5 million deadweight ton ship orders?"
"This is natural. There are additional clauses in the contract, and everything that should be considered has been taken into consideration. You can rest assured." Yao Yuan said.
Sun Yimin and Hu Bo had no other questions and stood up to say goodbye.
