"In the face of this new change in China-EU relations, what should we do in the development of the equipment industry?"

In an office of the National Development and Reform Commission, Han Hong, deputy director, asked Feng Xiaochen, who had just returned from Europe.

Han Hong and Feng Xiaochen had already known each other ten years ago, but at that time the equipment industry company was subordinate to the Economic Commission, and the planning committee at that time belonged to two, Feng Xiaochen was not Han Hong's direct subordinate.This time, the reform of state institutions, the abolition of the Economic and Trade Commission, the equipment industry company was assigned to the name of the National Development and Reform Commission, and the two became the real upper and lower levels.However, in the process of contact with Feng Xiaochen, Han Hong has never treated Feng Zhichen as an ordinary subordinate, more as a colleague who can discuss issues as an equal, even if he sometimes points out Feng Xiaochen, just because he is a little older, he has some experience in working methods and waiting for people.

Han Hong regarded Feng Xiaochen as an equal colleague, and Feng Xiaochen himself could not think so.After his return from Europe, he went to the National Development and Reform Commission for the first time to report to Han Hong what he had seen and heard during his trip, which specifically mentioned that the cooperation model between China and Europe in technology has changed significantly, and China has changed from a simple role as a student in the past to such an equal status as a partner and competitor.

"Europe's technological heritage is still difficult to surpass, but the gap between the two sides has been greatly narrowed, especially in some emerging technology areas, has formed a pattern of mutual growth."In addition, the long-term economic downturn in Europe, coupled with the tendency to welfare, has led to a large amount of money that cannot be invested in the field of production technology, but has become a variety of household consumption.Large-scale technology research and development projects such as the Captain Cook project generally face the dilemma of unsustainable funding.In contrast, our country's financial situation has been improving over the years, enterprises have also mastered a large number of liquidity, the state attaches great importance to large-scale projects, and the capital investment is sufficient, which is unmatched by European countries."Feng Xiaochen said so.

Han Hong nodded: “You are right.We have always said in the past that our country has the ability to focus on big things.In the past few years, our economy has been backward and our finances are stretched, and even if we want to concentrate our efforts, we can't afford how much money.In recent years, the financial sector has become rich, and the funds that our NDRC can mobilize is growing, and it has been able to carry out dozens of large-scale projects at the same time.Such conditions are not available in European countries, nor do the United States and Japan.This is a great opportunity for you to build large equipment.”

"We are the lucky generation."Feng Xiaochen joined the road.

He said, “Yes, you are a lucky generation.But there's such a good opportunity, and if you can't do a good job, you're sorry for our older generation."

Feng Xiaochen smiled, “Director Han, you are not old.By the standards of the United Nations, you have just crossed the line of youth, and you are still in the sun at eight or nine o'clock.”

Han Hong smiled and pointed Feng Xiaochen with his finger, saying: "They all say that your little Feng character is straight, talk is unobstructed, how can you learn to pat the ass?"

"That's what I say, I'm talking about it."Feng Xiaochen pretended to be aggrieved and said.

"Then I gladly accepted."Han Hong hit a haha.

Making such a joke between the superiors and the bottom is also a common thing, which helps to reconcile feelings.After the two laughed together, Feng Xiaochen went on to talk about his own consideration of these problems, which he had formed during his time in Europe, and, of course, had been verified with some of the experience of the future generations, and was sure that it was correct.

Compared with Western countries, our country's equipment industry technology level is still in the back, so the route of absorbing and introducing Western advanced technology cannot be changed.Among the three sources of technology in the United States, Japan and Europe, the United States will certainly tighten its technology transfer to China for international political considerations; Japan is worried that China will compete with them for traditional markets and economic dominance in Asia after its development, so it will also adopt a strict policy against China.Although Europe has also realized that the competition from China comes from China, because there is no conflict of political interests with us, the prevention of China is the weakest.My view is that, for the next decade or so, we should prioritize Europe as the object of our technical cooperation on equipment.”Feng Xiaochen said.

"That's a good idea."Han Hong commented.

“The choice of Europe as the object of cooperation has economic reasons, in addition to political factors.Europe’s economy is not as good as a day, and the demands of the European people’s lives are higher than one day, in which case Europeans have no choice but to sell the technology they had in the past.This means that it is easier for us to buy advanced technology from Europe, or even to directly annex its large traditional enterprises.”Feng Xiaochen said.

“You mean that Europeans are now living by selling their ancestral property?”Han Hong asked.

Feng Xiaochen said: "In fact, it is to sell ancestral products to maintain the life of flowers and wine."

"We're willing to help them."Han Honghaomai said, "The Development and Reform Commission has arranged funds to support domestic enterprises to come to Europe to acquire valuable equipment companies and help our enterprises achieve technological leapfrogging."However, we have to say ugly words in the front, the NDRC's money is not blown by the wind, these are the country's 1.3 billion people's sweaty money, you have to buy European companies, you must collect those valuable enterprises, can not move all the garbage back."

"That's for sure."Feng Xiaochen smiled and then added: “In addition to acquiring their enterprises, technical cooperation is also an important way.This time, I took Luo Ye and Chenyu Construction Machinery Company to Europe to find a partner, which is to explore a new model of cooperation between enterprises in China and Europe.Luo Yu is a state-owned enterprise, Chenyu is a private enterprise, are representative.

What I learned on this trip to Europe is that the cooperation model of our company and European accessories suppliers needs to be fundamentally changed, and in the past we were mainly focused on each other and succumbed to each other's existing technical specifications.In the future, our cooperation should be based on us, so that each other can be tailored to us.The reason is also very simple, that is, we already have the right to speak in the market, there is no need to look at the face of others."

"Very well, that's very important."Han Hong said, "In the past, we introduced technology from Europe, basically people said.Some spare parts companies have much bigger shelves than our mainframe factories, forcing us to do things according to the path they have drawn.I have heard that some European parts companies, threatening not to go to work on weekends, we have been burning eyebrows on our side, people should take a vacation, should leave off, should leave off, obviously take five minutes to help us solve the problem, we have to wait for several days, how much we have to suffer, they simply do not care.

He said: “This is too much.So I think it’s time to change all that.In the future, we will do business with European companies, and we must agree on the terms of service in advance.If this kind of situation allows us to wait for a few days in vain, cancel the cooperation and let them drink the wind."

“You can’t even generalize, and sometimes we have to ask for people, and at this time we should endure or endure.”Han Hong reminded.

Feng Xiaochen smiled: "That is certain, the shop big bully, the big bully shop, look at the reason, we understand, Europeans also understand, this time I contact some enterprises in Europe, the attitude towards us is obviously much more modest than in the past."

"The shop is a big bully, a big bully shop, this is called dialectics."Han Hong has a theoretical degree of summation.

This kind of conversation belongs to what people say about retreat.Before formulating various policies, decision-making levels often have to jump out of specific matters, conduct some discussions on the height of theory and history, form some principled opinions, and then implement them into concrete measures.People sometimes evaluate the leadership will use the word "high house construction", in fact, is not entirely a compliment, the real senior leadership, for many issues of the view is indeed higher than ordinary people, their thinking depth, far from the key political situation of the prince can imagine.

With these previous consensuses, Han Hong and Feng Xiaochen then discussed some specific development ideas for equipment projects, including the sixth-generation drilling platform development project named Zheng He by Feng Zhichen.Han Hong appreciated the idea that the equipment company planned to set up a research center in the Netherlands, and proposed that some other projects can also be handled as such.In addition, in addition to opening in Europe, the United States, Japan and other places can also be set up, as long as the flag of recruitment, do not worry about food people.

From the development and reform committee back to the equipment company, Feng Xiaochen held a middle-level cadre meeting, first of all by the cold flying cloud to inform you about the situation in Europe, and then Feng Xiaochen introduced the content of his conversation with Han Hong, to convey the instructions of the leadership of the National Development and Reform Commission.Feng Xiaochen's reference to a new model of China-EU cooperation has been widely accepted by the people.Compared with the still-existing tendency of the Chongyang in society, the cadres and employees of the equipment company have more confidence, on the one hand, because they are more in contact with things, the views are more objective, and on the other hand, there are also such a super confident traversal influence on everyone.

After arranging the work of various departments in the near future, Feng Zhichen returned to his office.Secretary Meng Yang handed him the freshly brewed tea, while whispering: "Feng, Haidong Quanfu Machinery Co., Ltd. Nguyen has been waiting for you for an hour in the meeting room, are you now convenient to see him?"

“The old man is coming?”Feng Xiaochen put a smile in his eyes and said, “Please come here, yes, I will give him a cup of great red robes.”The old man is more concerned with face, so don't let him feel that he has been left out in the cold."
