During the former Soviet Union, Russia was not very good at the finishing industry. At that time, because of the two-pole competition with the United States, the main test was a country's heavy industry capabilities.

And the most important thing is that at that time, the main examination subjects were military industry, aerospace and other large-scale national-level equipment manufacturing capabilities that could not meet the consumption.

At that time, relying on the technology and blueprints plundered from Germany after World War II, the former Soviet Union could still compete with the Western bloc headed by the United States, but the most critical thing they ignored was the drain of talent.

You must know that what the Americans took away from Germany at that time was not only technology, drawings, and machines, but most importantly, there were also many talents who had served the Nazis. It was precisely with the contributions of these talents that the Americans completed

After the great technological boom after World War II, you must know that before that, the strength of the United States in the field of science and technology was on par with Europe, and even worse than Europe in some parts.

However, the former Soviet Union did not pay attention to these talents, which was the main reason why they later developed shortcomings in technology and even fell behind in the entire technical level.

After the disintegration of the former Soviet Union, a large number of domestic talents once again outflowed, which caused the current domestic finishing industry in Russia to lag behind again, even falling further and further behind Western countries.

Although in 1983 of the last century, the Russians purchased several high-precision CNC five-axis machine tools from the short-sighted Japanese to improve the anti-monitoring capabilities of their submarines.

However, they only purchased four units in total at that time. In the last century, the five-axis machine tools at that time were incomparable with today's more advanced CNC machine tools.

When they bought machine tools from the Japanese, they also purchased a large number of spare parts. However, because these machine tools were too sophisticated and expensive, and the Russians had never fully understood the technology of such machine tools, these few machines

Machine tools can only be used exclusively by the country for military industry, and other civilian uses cannot be taken into account.

Although these four machine tools from Toshiba suddenly raised the finishing capabilities of the former Soviet Union to a higher level, due to the inability to replicate it on a large scale, and the subsequent disintegration of the Soviet Union, the domestic situation in Russia was turbulent. Although the former Soviet Union gave Russia

He left behind a very rich family fortune, but after so many years of neglect, the Russian machine tool processing industry can be said to be completely ruined.

At this time, their production and processing capabilities are not even as good as those of China.

A few years later, when Russia embarked on the road to recovery and became the world's largest consumer of radial drilling machines for ten consecutive years, they have always been weak in horizontal turning machining centers and needed the

Large horizontal milling machines and machining centers have always relied on imports to solve problems. In 2010, their import quota for horizontal machine tools even reached 10 billion US dollars...

As a person who has been engaged in automobile production and processing, and has some knowledge about machine tools, Jin Xiaoqiang, who understands the general development of machine tools in the world, how could he not know about this big business opportunity in Russia in the future.

At present, although his Huayang Seiko is not able to fully manufacture their own machine tools, their machine tool parts are available all over the country and are very popular.

And although they are currently unable to produce the highest level CNC five-axis linkage machine tools, they may still be able to produce four-axis linkage or three-axis machine tools.

Moreover, the difficulty and cost of manufacturing these machine tools are much lower than the five-axis linkage with the most advanced technology in the world.

You must know that in the current world, as far as the market is concerned, the most advanced technology does not necessarily mean the best. Cost-effectiveness is also a very important factor worthy of consideration.

Why Tianchao's products were able to win markets around the world so quickly? Price was the key.

Although the current economic situation in Russia is very good, not all companies and bosses are rich, and not all of them can afford five-axis CNC machine tools.

When Huayang Precision comes to Russia with those high-quality and low-priced four-axis linkage or three-axis linkage machine tools, it will not necessarily be completely defeated by Mazak, Damei, Amada, and DMG.

An old machine tool manufacturing company.

And even if these machine tools cannot be sold, Jin Xiaoqiang is not afraid. Their machine tool accessories from Huayang Dynamics, especially the cutting tools, are very outstanding. Recently, they have not only become famous in China, but have even been contacted by some overseas countries.

They asked whether their machine tool tools could be exported in large quantities.

I believe that as long as they can maintain such quality, these accessories will definitely be able to open up the market in Russia in the future.

Over the past few days, Jin Xiaoqiang has been thinking about his trip to Russia. Over there, Luo Degui has basically finalized some details of negotiations with the Russian side.

Huayang Power will cooperate with Gorky Automobile Manufacturing Group and Volga Automobile Manufacturing Group at the same time.

The cooperation with Gorky is mainly to produce all models of the Eado series, while the cooperation with Volga is to cooperate with the tough-guy series of off-road vehicles that are currently the most popular in Russia.

At the beginning, they will adopt the ckd cooperation model of component assembly, producing engines, transmissions and other important auto parts in Nanyang, and then transport them to Russia.

The Gorky Group, as well as the Volga Group, will provide sites, workers, assembly workshops, and production lines to assemble new cars.

The body manufacturing of the new car, as well as other unimportant parts, will be produced in Russia.

In fact, compared with domestically produced vehicles, the cost of such a joint venture will not be much lower than that of domestic production. After all, the labor force in Russia is much higher than that in China, and it also has to be responsible for long-distance transportation, such as the powertrain.

Parts are shipped to the assembly company.

Overall, the cost is actually a little higher than in China.

But in the end, the benefits brought by the joint venture with these two Russian state-owned enterprises are quite considerable. First of all, the tax rate has been reduced a lot.

Moreover, after becoming a joint venture, you will also enjoy various Russian preferential policies. In the end, if you calculate it down, this kind of cooperation is more cost-effective.

Generally speaking, if policy factors are also taken into account, it will not be a loss to cooperate with these two Russian state-owned enterprises.

You must know that although Russia is now democratic, it is not yet a politically clear country. In this country, corruption problems such as collusion between officials and businessmen and accepting bribes are still very serious.

Moreover, Russia's police system is rotten to the core and does not dare to do anything to its own citizens, but it is extremely powerful when it comes to dealing with foreigners, especially companies and businessmen who come to China.

Some time ago, every time Huayang Power shipped goods to Russia and transported cars to European cities like Moscow or St. Petersburg, the transport fleet would be intercepted by the police to demand bribes.

Don't underestimate the bribes demanded by these policemen. This journey requires thousands of kilometers and crosses more than a dozen continents. The cost of asking for bribes along the way is not small.

Now that we have joint ventures with these two Russian state-owned enterprises, I believe there will no longer be those blind policemen looking for trouble.

Of course, these are the benefits brought by joint ventures with these two Russian state-owned enterprises. Of course, Huayang Power also has to pay a certain price.

For example, they will transfer certain technologies to these two Russian automobile manufacturers five years after launching the ckd cooperation model.

For example, the dual overhead camshaft engine currently used in their Eado models, as well as turbine matching technology, variable valve timing technology, etc., are currently relatively mainstream technologies in the world.

This kind of technology, currently seen internationally and domestically, has gradually fallen behind, but if it comes to Russia, this kind of technology is definitely a good thing.

As for the higher-level ecboost technology, as well as dual-clutch transmission and other technologies, the Russians are very smart and have not involved them at all, because they know that if they become greedy for such technology, they will definitely be ruthlessly attacked.

of rejection and humiliation.

They also talked about wanting to introduce automatic transmission technology, but on this issue, Luo Luogui, who was instructed by Jin Xiaoqiang, wanted it very close, and there was no way to buy it at a fixed price.

You must know the problem with the automatic transmission. Back then, the Japanese, Americans, and Germans had been relying on this technology to hold China's neck back for a long time. If it hadn't been for Jin Xiaoqiang's breakthrough, even seven years later they wouldn't have been able to do it.

What breakthrough was achieved?

It's time for the Russians to taste the taste of being choked.

Jin Xiaoqiang also has his own judgment and reasons why he can transfer engine technology but not automatic transmission technology.

Relatively speaking, engine technology is easier to break through and imitate, but the issue of automatic transmissions is complicated. It is just the complex layout of the hydraulic oil pipes in the transmission, as well as the special gears used.

If no one tells you the model of material and steel, you may have to figure it out for several years.

Not to mention the layout of the sensors required inside and the design of the hydraulic system, so even if the Russians got the transmission and could disassemble it, they still couldn't copy it.

Moreover, the Russians, like the Chinese, are not ranked first in the world in the design and manufacturing of hydraulic systems!

Without the emergence of Jin Xiaoqiang, I am afraid that China's transmission R&D and manufacturing industry would still be in a blank situation until now.

As for Russia, it’s a pity that they don’t have Jin Xiaoqiang!
