Huang Xuan waved his hand, and hundreds of workers returned to the production line. With the help of Lorraine, he taught the workers step by step how to use the production line. He was so serious that everyone was stunned.
Xu Qi asked Li Shenggang in disbelief: "Did you really change the production line?"
"Let me ask who is going." Li Shenggang said this, but he felt that if it was his own boss, it was really possible. Maybe he came back from studying abroad and brought his subordinates with him. Or maybe you come home from an overseas fairy island to become an apprentice, spread the beans and become an army, and you can get 0 billion by just blowing your breath, and it is not easy to build a production line.
Even if you miss, it’s not far off.
But how dare he say it.
The entire BD production line is basically controlled by computers, but because the technology has just begun to develop, there are many key points, and a lot of manpower is needed. When everything is ready, Zhu Xiankui's people will have already sent the things.
"Turn it on." Huang Xuan nodded towards Xu Qi, but without even looking at the production line, he went to the changing room to take off his clothes and play with new paint.
To add rare metals to organic solvents to produce suitable organic dyes, it took Fuji four years, Mitsubishi almost three and a half years, and Pioneer a little earlier, but not much earlier. Huang Xuan's goal is - minutes.
In fact, there is nothing to say about this. Simply combine rare metals with organic solvents in the form of atoms. How many rare metal atoms, how many benzene rings and methyl groups should an organic dye macromolecule have? The conformation can be put on. Although hundreds of billions or trillions of organic macromolecules use hundreds of thousands of kilowatt-hours of electrical energy, it is just a trial production to verify the properties anyway, and Huang Xuan doesn't care about the small amount of money.
In the workshop, Xu Qi, who was actually conducting trial production, was already showing signs of fainting.
He was originally wondering why Huang Xuan specifically crossed out the disc box from the material preparation. He originally thought that the boss wanted to save this money and only try the disc itself, so he didn't pay much attention to it. But when the disc was produced, Only then did he realize that this was the super-hard-coated disc that the boss had said, and there was no need for a disc case at all.
Except that no organic dyes are actually used, everything is the same as a normal optical disc. If this is a new production line bought by Wang Hao, Xu Qi will only be happy, but this is a modified version of the production line that Huang Xuan hammered out, and in his heart The taste is much weirder.
Is it really the time when level 8 metalworkers are rampant again
He still didn't believe it, so he touched the Mediterranean Sea with his hand and said to the technician next to him: "Look again, look at that... We will wait until the new dye comes up."
Huang Xuan walked out of the small room soon after, holding two large barrels of organic dyes in his hand, handed them to a worker and said, "Put these dyes on that production line."
"oh."
Xu Qi moved his lips, then stopped, and just shouted loudly: "It's shut down."
The production line slowly stopped. A group of people watched the worker add new organic dyes to the production line nearby. Huang Xuan explained to Zhu Xiankui: "The CDs coming out of this batch are CDs that can be sold. If you are interested, the organic dyes are I can outsource it to you, but the patent belongs to me, and we have to discuss the price. We can also negotiate a contract for the remaining packaging and other disc materials. "
Zhu Xiankui said "yes", but didn't answer in a hurry. He was pursuing Huang Xuan to discuss cooperation before. It was because the magical stories passed down from his family were too similar to Huang Xuan, so he wanted to follow Huang Xuan. He didn't say anything now to prove it. Whether Huang Xuan really has the "ability" is also the time to decide whether cooperation is possible.
At this time, Xu Qi became nervous again. He looked along the trial production line again, grabbed his hair, and said loudly: "Turn on the machine."
The main operator pressed the button, and the production line immediately started slowly.
Huang Xuan pulled Zhu Xiankui towards the back of the production line and said, "Go over and see how the disk is doing."
The production speed of the new production line has not changed. On average, one disc is produced every 7 seconds with a capacity of 5G. However, as long as the yield rate of 90% can be achieved, the absolute production speed is not of much use. At least for now, it is 75 pieces per month. It is difficult to sell 50,000 Blu-ray discs per month across three production lines.
Zhu Xiankui also calmed down, picked up the Blu-ray disc just delivered from the production line, rubbed it and said, "How much does this cost?"
Huang Xuan looked at the energy screen next to him and said with a mysterious smile: "It's always cheaper than Sony's."
"What about technology? How much difference can it make?" Zhu Xiankui basically doesn't understand technology, but from a general point of view, whether it is Sony, Pioneer or Philips, the discs should be better than those produced by Huang Xuan. After all, the ones produced in China are cheaper. There are many DVD discs, but if they can be as good as foreign manufacturers, there is no profit.
"We'll find out when the analysis report comes out." Huang Xuan looked unpredictable again.
Xu Qiye felt itchy in his heart as he took the disks that came off the assembly line, turned them over and over, and kept urging the people in the technical department: "How is it? Is it suitable?"
After finally passing it through various testing machines, the technician came out with a thick stack of reports and said: "Mr. Huang, we have just measured it. The hardness and inclination of the new disk have reached the standard, and the density has reached the standard." yes… "
"Is it better than Sony's or not?" Huang Xuan directly asked the question Zhu Xiankui wanted to ask.
"It's much better." The technician immediately pulled out a piece of paper and said, "And our yield rate is very high."
Sony also uses the Singulus production line, and it is older than Xintong's production line, not to mention the one that has been transformed by Lorraine.
The technician spoke while looking at Xu Qi.
Xu Qi's main job is to ensure productivity and control product quality within a certain range. Relatively speaking, the latter is relatively fixed, while the former requires effort. He asked anxiously at this moment: "Is the yield rate 50%?" He had already seen many good disks, and finally did not ask whether it could be used.
"91%" the technician looked at Huang Xuan and said, "It's twice as high as Sony's yield rate."
Xu Qi shook his hand, and a few strands of "hair" fell off the bare Mediterranean Sea, and the ocean expanded...
Other technicians also hurriedly grabbed the analysis reports to read. Although most of them were in English or German, the numbers were familiar to everyone present.
A technician twisted his neck to look at the replaced spare parts and equipment used to install samples, and murmured: "Is it really possible to modify the production line with wrenches and pliers?"
He suddenly looked back and looked at the ridiculously accurate production line. His forehead heated up and he said, "There's not even a vernier caliper. How can you position it?"
Huang Xuan coughed violently and said, "This is a technical secret, so just leave it alone."
Xu Qi looked at Huang Xuan with a different look. He took a wrench from the technician's hand, gestured on the production line for a long time, and said, "Can I learn it?"
"Let's talk." Huang Xuan smiled with his molars exposed.
Zhu Xiankui also grabbed a list and stuffed it into his clothes regardless of whether he understood it or not. He ignored the looks of Xu Qi and others and said, "I'm going to find someone to take a look at it when I go back."
"It's up to you." Huang Xuan retracted his gaze, raised his hand, pulled out a USB flash drive and said: "This contains the production process and formula of organic dyes. The price is 0 million US dollars. I want to take 0% of the shares of your Guanghua Dyestuff Factory. , and then you can use this formula to produce it.”
"Thirty percent is a little over. Guanghua is worth at least 1 billion." Zhu Xiankui said, trying to grab Huang Xuan's USB flash drive.
Huang Xuan circled his hand and said without humility: "Just 0%. You may make more money from me in the future than this."
"Then we need to add more equipment? These must not dilute the shares?" Zhu Xiankui came from a real business family. Although he had long said that he wanted to work with Huang Xuan, he did not give in easily when discussing the contract.
"Renovate the existing equipment so that it can produce organic dyes of similar quality, and the remaining new equipment is your business. If you agree, we will sign a contract, and within 5 days, I will supply the first batch." A week later Nakagawa Yu and his party are about to arrive in Nanjing.
"Sure." Zhu Xiankui nodded and said, "I'll give it a try. Let's find a lawyer right now."
"That's best." Huang Xuan immediately showed a cooperative smile.
…
Not one day after signing the contract with Zhu Xiankui, Huang Xuan's aunt Yang Li came to visit.
DVD is a big cake, and this is the time when it is prosperous. The annual global profits are as high as more than 10 billion US dollars, and support supporting industries that are 10 times that amount. The EVD Alliance was born under the impetus of such huge benefits. This is because Pressure from the 6C Alliance.
The DVD interest group headed by Sony imposed a patent fee requirement on Chinese companies on the eve of the millennium. For every DVD produced, Chinese manufacturers must pay US$5 to the 6C Alliance and the 4C Alliance, and pay a tribute of US$1 to Thomson. The patent fee is US$1.5, and a patent fee of US$.5 must be paid to MPEG-LA. It was a lot of money, and it gradually increased, starting with half of the average dollar profit, and ending up with $0 per machine. It almost took away the last profit from the end of the DVD period. The Zhu family and the Yang family are both the leading families in the EVD alliance. They are the Chinese companies that feel the pressure of the 6C alliance most deeply, and countless small and medium-sized enterprises have long been pushed into the abyss.
So when they discovered that Huang Xuan might have a patent advantage in the new generation of optical storage, the two families were inevitably attracted.
Not only did Yang Li come to see Huang Xuan, but also his brother, Yang Ming, now the head of the Yang family. He controlled a large group worth tens of billions of dollars and rarely participated in such negotiations in person.
Unless this is an extremely important negotiation.
If Yang Li only came to talk to Huang Xuan on behalf of a factory or enterprise, Huang Xuan would probably agree directly. But now, the Yang family obviously wants to tie herself to Huang Xuan's chariot, or tie Huang Xuan to theirs. Chariot, let Blu-ray share weal and woe with it, which is something Huang Xuan finds difficult to agree with.
Therefore, Yang Ming's first proposal for monopoly was directly rejected by Huang Xuan.
Sitting in Fulin's newly opened branch in Nanjing, Huang Xuan carefully tasted the six-headed abalone he brought back from home. Liu Ziqing also sat beside him and chatted with Yang Ming every sentence. The atmosphere was a little cold.
Yang Li took two sips of tea and saw the presence of the old god Huang Xuan. She couldn't help but smile secretly and said, "Xuan'er, are you really not allowed to sign the exclusive agreement?" By saying this, she was not only easing the conditions, but also playing the family card. .
Huang Xuan said with a sad face: "I just signed a contract with Zhu Xiankui. Now if he breaks the contract, he will have to pay money. Moreover, I even gave him the patent. If the exclusive contract is really signed, there will be no way to produce it."
"So if we monopolize the supply of polycarbonate, we can invest in building a factory." Yang Ming is about 50 years old, but his hair has turned gray and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes are obvious.
Polycarbonate is PC, a type of resin that is used in the production of the entire base plate. Blu-ray discs have higher requirements. Due to the backwardness of China's engineering plastics technology, the technical indicators required by Blu-ray are almost impossible to achieve in China, but if it can be combined with Huang Xuan signed an exclusive contract, especially with part of the financial support, he could build a new factory and pull the Yang Group out of the current quagmire.
Huang Xuan also knew that the current capital chain of the Yang family was very tight. This was tantamount to borrowing money in disguise. Looking at his aunt, he thought for a while and said: "It is always better to invest in a loan than to put it in a bank, but in this case, I will have to at least 51 % of the equity. "This is equivalent to extending Hexin's current industrial chain upstream.
With the current production capacity of polycarbonate, if the output of Blu-ray discs suddenly increases, it will inevitably lead to an increase in raw materials, and polycarbonate may become a bottleneck.
Yang Ming breathed a long sigh of relief and said, feeling more relaxed: "I wonder how your ICT production capacity is? Polycarbonate is a project that we are very optimistic about. China is now a large consumer country and a weak production country. The only modern-scale equipment is Japan. The 50,000 tons/year device that Teijin is building will take several months to be put into operation, but there is a lot of domestic and foreign investment in this area. Our idea is to build a phosgene production plant with an annual output of 10,000 tons first and then build it later? The PC supporting workshop required for this Blu-ray disc?”
"I don't quite understand this. Uncle Yang, please explain it to me. How much is the investment and what is the phosgene method?"
Yang Ming felt relieved when he heard the call of uncle, and he laughed and said: "If the phosgene method is used to produce a 10,000-ton PC, the investment will be about 400 million yuan. If the non-phosgene method is used, the investment will be increased by about 100 million yuan." , this phosgene method has mature production technology and low construction cost, but phosgene is a highly toxic product and causes serious pollution; the non-phosgene method uses clean ethylene oxide and carbon dioxide as raw materials, which produces almost no pollution, but construction The cost is higher. Generally speaking, the higher the output of the non-phosgene production process, the smaller the average increase. If the volume is large, state subsidies can be obtained, which is okay. But below 60,000 tons, the phosgene method is better. Good. As for the polycarbonate currently used in Blu-ray, it needs to be further developed and a process added to the new factory to produce what is needed in small quantities. "
Huang Xuan couldn't bear to see pollution now. Food was much more valuable than these chemicals. His mind just turned around and he said, "Then I understand better. Uncle Yang, how are you going to build the factory? It takes too long and I can't wait any longer." "
As long as one production line is fully deployed, he can produce 15 million Blu-ray discs every month, and the production cost can be reduced to a level that even Sony would not believe. If Blu-ray is fully rolled out, the prices of these raw materials will definitely follow the market.
Yang Ming drank tea to moisten his throat and said: "In China's polycarbonate industry, Dalian Qihua Company is the fastest. They now mainly produce epoxy resin. We also have shares in Qihua, and we are qualified to expand our shares. If we use Their existing technology can be completed and put into production in up to 6 months, and polycarbonate and epoxy resin use bisphenol A as the main raw material, which can reduce costs. "
Huang Xuan smiled, thought for a while, tapped his fingers silently on the table, and said: "Uncle Yang, you should have heard that I now have 14 billion U.S. dollars in loans. We are paying interest, so when it comes to money, there is no need to be stingy, but time is more important.”
He has to pay almost 80 million US dollars in interest every month. In comparison, an investment of 400 million yuan is too small.
Yang Li glanced at her elder brother and said with a smile, "Xuan'er, how large a scale do you think it should be put into production?"
"I don't know much about this. I can't use up 10,000 tons anyway." Huang Xuan raised his eyebrows and smiled: "I think we should first build a factory to produce the PC raw materials we need, and then build a large one." ?”
"It can be built separately, but polycarbonate still needs to be produced first, and it cannot be processed from finished products."
"Well, do you want to read a report to me?" Huang Xuan did not agree to it. Instead, he asked Yang Minggao to look at him. Originally, in his mind, young people are always a little impulsive. How did he know that, Huang Xuan, who experienced life-threatening situations at a young age, was already quite calm when faced with such a thing. (To be continued)
