Rebirth in 1989: Building a Chinese Technological Empire

"Secretary Li, in this case, can you help ask our Yituo? See if they can help us produce some agricultural machinery on behalf of us, and our company can pay them the OEM fee..."

Xu Huasheng looked at Li Jilin and said with a smile.

The Yituo mentioned by Xu Huasheng is China's First Tractor Factory, formerly the Luoyang Tractor Factory. The famous Dongfanghong brand is the brand of this company.

And this tractor factory used to be a military enterprise, an enterprise that produced tanks. Finally, the enterprise transformed and specialized in producing agricultural machinery.

But now Xu Huasheng looks down on Yituo's products, although Yituo's products are currently considered to be relatively good in China. But compared with similar foreign products, there is a big gap.

Xu Huasheng has such a sharp vision that he even looks down on foreign products, let alone the current Yituo products.

Xu Huasheng also has ideas about agricultural machinery. However, there is no factory yet. Since there is an enterprise like Yituo in Henan Province, it should be no problem to find them to produce some products on behalf of them.

Let's not talk about selling them to other companies. First, we will produce a batch of products for the agricultural service team of Huasheng Group. Then we will build our own factory to specialize in the production of agricultural machinery. Xu Huasheng has a lot of information about agricultural machinery in his mind. Xu Huasheng doesn't want to use a large number of foreigners' machinery in China's farmland in the future.

"Mr. Xu, why don't you buy our YTO products directly?"

A person from the industrial sector next to Li Jilin couldn't help but ask curiously. As soon as this was said, other people also looked at Xu Huasheng. Yes, can't we buy YTO products directly? Why do we have to let YTO do OEM?

"Everyone, can I tell the truth?"

Xu Huasheng couldn't help but smile. This made everyone smile bitterly, as if they had guessed something.

"To be honest, the reason why I don't buy YTO's products is that YTO doesn't have some products. Secondly, I don't like our products. The technology is relatively backward, and the quality is not very good. The failure rate is relatively high. In the future, the workload of our agricultural service team will be very large, and once the machine fails during the busy farming season, it will delay a lot of time. It's not that I don't support domestic enterprises, but sometimes domestic products are really difficult to meet the needs."

Xu Huasheng's words made Li Jilin and others embarrassed. The truth is hard to hear, but this is the truth at present.

YTO's products are considered advanced in China, but there is still a big gap compared with foreign products. Therefore, some large state-owned farms in China are unwilling to use domestic products. They would rather spend foreign exchange to buy more expensive products from abroad.

Sometimes it's not really flattering, but there are some situations that really dare not delay.

Take the harvest of summer and autumn grains as an example. Those large farms are relatively large in scale and have heavy harvesting tasks. For foreign products, one machine may harvest 1,000 acres a day, while domestic machines may not even harvest 500 acres.

The most important thing is that foreign machines have basically no problems during the entire harvesting season. However, domestic machines sometimes have problems every few days, which reduces the efficiency too much.

The crops on large farms basically mature together. If your machine is damaged and delayed for a few days, it is very likely that the grain will be delayed directly.

"Mr. Xu, I will contact YTO in person, and it should not be a big problem."

Li Jilin looked at Xu Huasheng and said, without saying anything. But as the parent official of Henan Province, if Li Jilin can't arrange this matter in person, then YTO is too disrespectful.

Li Jilin directly wrote down this matter, and after inspecting the construction site with Xu Huasheng, he immediately contacted YTO in person.

Li Jilin's words made YTO pay more attention. After Li Jilin explained the matter, YTO did not refuse. It was just some agricultural machinery outsourcing, and there was an outsourcing fee, which was completely no problem.

Xu Huasheng was not idle either. After inspecting the company and returning to the hotel, Xu Huasheng asked for a blank paper to draw.

After a busy time, Xu Huasheng drew several detailed drawings. Looking at these drawings, Xu Huasheng nodded with satisfaction.

The next day, Xu Huasheng went directly to Luoyang.

And with Xu Huasheng's ability, Xu Huasheng's private plane landed directly at the Luoyang North Suburb Airport, which has not yet been opened to the public.

"Hello, Mr. Xu..."

When Xu Huasheng arrived at YTO, a very energetic old man came out to greet Xu Huasheng in person. Huasheng Group is very famous in China, especially for entrepreneurs. Who doesn't know Huasheng Group?

What's more, YTO has some cooperation with Huasheng Group. Some time ago, some machine tools bought by YTO's researchers were bought from Huasheng Group. YTO knows the strength of Huasheng Group.

"Hello, Mr. Lu, I'm sorry.Excuse me..."

Xu Huasheng and Mr. Lu exchanged a few simple polite words, and the group entered the interior of YTO.

Under the leadership of Mr. Lu, Xu Huasheng visited various departments of YTO, especially the production line. Seeing this slightly backward production line, Xu Huasheng sighed in his heart.

This is currently the most powerful agricultural machinery manufacturing company in China, but looking at this production line, it is indeed very backward.

However, the backward production line does not mean that it is impossible to produce good quality products. As long as it is strictly controlled, good quality products can still be produced.

After the inspection, Xu Huasheng and Mr. Lu came to the research institute where Mr. Lu relies.

"Mr. Lu, this time we want to entrust you to produce several products. The first product is a large integrated harvester..."

Xu Huasheng took out the blueprint and opened the first blueprint. Mr. Lu and the engineers of the research institute immediately looked at the blueprint.

The blueprint was very detailed and detailed data was marked on it.

Xu Huasheng began to introduce this large harvester. After listening to Xu Huasheng's introduction, everyone on the side widened their eyes.

This harvester is a large harvester that integrates harvesting, threshing, and cleaning. It has its own cargo warehouse and is particularly suitable for harvesting small plots in Henan Province.

YTO does not have this kind of product yet. Don't underestimate this kind of harvester. The technical difficulty is very high. Now YTO mainly produces tractor heads. They don't have this kind of combine harvester with high technical difficulty.

This is not what surprised them the most. What surprised them was the performance of the head of this harvester. .

This engine uses a six-cylinder diesel engine, and according to Xu Huasheng, the maximum horsepower of this six-cylinder diesel engine can reach 600 horsepower, which is too exaggerated.

Not only is the performance strong, but the configuration of this harvester is also very awesome. The various designs are very clever. After harvesting the wheat, the wheat that comes out after a series of procedures can be blown clean even the dust and bran inside. The wheat harvested by this harvester can be stored after drying it at home.

Look at the cab again. There is not only air conditioning inside, but also a car refrigerator and car audio. The entire cab is very large, and there is a bed inside for rest. If there are two drivers, one driver can sleep and the other driver can work, taking turns to rest.

Looking at this design drawing, two words came to these people's minds: luxury!
