Chapter 55 Not that easy to bully

In the equipment industry, overall the entry threshold is relatively high.

It is mainly reflected in the aspects of production qualifications and compliance requirements, capital investment, professional talents, customer base and relationships, and project experience.

For example, for some equipment related to safety and hygiene, a production qualification can make you want to die.

However, there are no production qualification and compliance issues in the stamping equipment industry. Basically, you can do whatever you want.

The trouble is that you need money, technology and talent, and the ability to sell equipment.

One compressor can cost millions, or even millions. If you don't have customers, it's useless to say anything.

Closing down in minutes.

Therefore, most of the domestic stamping equipment is concentrated on small-tonnage presses. This type of investment is relatively low and has a wide range of customers, making it relatively easy to survive.

Of course, the situation of a time-honored brand like Jier Machine Tool is better.

However, what they make is a relatively traditional single stamping press, not the PRG press that Nanshan Auto Parts Factory wants to launch.

"Master, according to this progress, our first prototype will be assembled next month."

"However, so far, more than [-]% of the components have been purchased from outside. We hope to make the core motors and crank-link mechanisms in-house, but it won't be possible within this year."

He Qingquan basically spent this time in the equipment center.

As a workaholic, with Cao Yang providing the drawings and just implementing the technical plan, the problem is really not that big.

Of course, during this period, the Human Resources and General Affairs Department successively recruited dozens of experienced employees from outside, which also helped a lot.

"First solve the existing problems, and then consider improving the internal processing of parts."

"According to the current increase in nut plate exports, we will need to add three or four more stamping machines next year. These presses will all use presses produced by the equipment center."

Cao Yang is still very confident in the press technology provided by the system.

Although the machining accuracy of some parts may not meet the drawing requirements, the overall performance should not be worse than what Schuler and Aida currently sell.

"If we just customize various parts and assemble them, the schedule will definitely be enough."

"The failure rate of our own equipment may be higher by then."

Although He Qingquan is very confident in the PRG press technology currently developed.

However, advanced technology does not mean that the equipment is stable.

Even sometimes, the more advanced the technology, the more likely it is to fail.

“Wouldn’t it be possible to assemble the first press next month?”

"Speed ​​up the speed, assemble this machine first, and then put it into actual production."

Cao Yang's instruction made He Qingquan feel a little strange.

"Master, our factory's current press production capacity is sufficient. If we rush to invest in new self-produced equipment, stability will be a big problem."

"Why don't you wait, slowly debug it for a few rounds after it's assembled, and then put it into use after debugging is OK?"

He Qingquan is focused on equipment research, and obviously does not have a special understanding of the situation Nanshan Auto Parts Factory is facing now.

Cao Yang naturally understood what he said.

But one code equals another, and sometimes you have to make a choice.

Just like the iPhone launch conference held by Steve Jobs. Is the technology of that prototype mature?

Time waits for no one, and sometimes there is no way to wait until the technology matures before launching it.

"The first batch of PRG molds we provided to Chuncheng Stamping Factory and Chuncheng Fourth Ring Factory have already been put into use. They have felt the benefits of the PRG process and they will soon consider introducing specialized PRG stamping machines."

"In this case, if we don't move fast enough, we have no chance of getting their press order."

"Once the first batch of presses are used by Aida or Schuler, the other party is likely to give priority to continuing to purchase equipment of the same brand due to the convenience of equipment maintenance or usage habits."

"Then we will miss the opportunity again."

“In addition, other stamping factories such as Xifeng Die Stamping will definitely follow suit soon.”

"We don't have much time."

Nanshan Auto Parts Factory has never sold a PRG press. Simply trying to sell it with empty words will definitely lead to failure.

That's why Cao Yang hopes to put a press into actual production.

This is more effective than any advertisement.

Other customers who have not cooperated may still have various worries.

But for Spring City Stamping and Sihuan Factory, as long as Nanshan gives guarantees and will assist in maintenance if there are any problems, there is still a possibility of successful sales.

Even this possibility is very high.

"Master, I understand."

"Originally, the equipment center was working on normal shifts. Starting from tomorrow, I will directly divide the staff into three shifts so that there are people working at each time period."

"However, further recruitment may be needed in terms of manpower."

"After all, even if some people work two shifts at the same time, it won't be enough."

He Qingquan planned to spend the next period of time eating, drinking and sleeping in the equipment center.

He even thought of asking the Personnel and General Affairs Department to prepare a few camp beds and place them directly in the equipment center.

"no problem!"

“If you want people, give people, if you want money, give money, if you want things, give things!”

"This time the development of the PRG press is not only related to the future of the factory, but also related to whether it will be bullied now."

"There is some news that you can tell everyone after dinner..."

Cao Yang mentioned to He Qingquan that Aida was disgusting with him, and immediately raised the other's anger.

The reputation of Japanese people is inherently complicated.

Now that I have come to Nanshan Auto Parts Factory, it is easy to make everyone feel the same hatred.

"Master, don't worry, this press doesn't have to wait until a month later, at most half a month, I can make it appear in front of everyone."

"Most of the parts are already in place, it's just a matter of assembly."

"As for the maintenance of other presses, I think once our own press is successfully assembled, we can directly let our equipment center take care of this aspect."

"From now on, there is no need for people from Aida to even let them in through the gate of our factory."

“We can even inquire to see who else in the industry is using Aida’s equipment, and we can directly grab their after-sales business.”

In He Qingquan's heart, Cao Yang was more than just a master and a boss.

This is still his own bole, his own benefactor.

Now Aida wants to disgust and extort Nanshan Auto Parts Factory, how can he bear it?

This was more unacceptable than insulting himself.

"Your proposal is a good one. Aida wants to make money from after-sales service. We will destroy their market in the future."

"Let's see if they regret it or we regret it later!"

This time, Cao Yang was ready to show his fangs and let the industry know that Nanshan Auto Parts Factory is not so easy to bully.
