Chapter 503 One-tenth of the cost

"Please ask Mr. Timsey to come in." Nazarbayev looked at Su City with a wry smile. What's the matter when you come to his presidential palace without looking for the president, but for guests?

This is Halliburton, a world-class oil equipment producer. With another company, even Exxon, the world's number one oil producer, Nazarbayev would not be so easy to talk. However, without the support of the Soviet oil industry, only Halliburton can fully support Kazakhstan's oil policy, and Nazarbayev has to look up at them.

Timsi, the vice president, is the head of Halliburton in Central Asia. To some extent, he has mastered the overall progress of Kazakhstan's oil development. Nazarbayev asked for more time and less time for her, which is psychologically disadvantage.

Su Cheng bowed slightly, apologized hypocritically, and sat in the chair.

Several people are actually a little curious about what Harry Burton is for in such a hurry.

Without waiting too long, Timsi, who had long hands and feet, walked into Nazarbayev's office.

This is a man who looks like an athlete. He has a wide and narrow figure. He stretched out his hand from afar and shook hands with Nazarbayev, Sucheng and Ayman respectively. He smiled and said, "I didn't want to disturb the President, but I'm going back to the mainland for a meeting soon, and I suddenly received the Let's communicate."

He is quite polite, but just going to the presidential palace to find Su Cheng shows that he doesn't regard the presidents of Central Asian countries as very important.

Su Cheng sighed secretly. Although he is the wholly-owned owner of Dahua Industry, in terms of international status, he is not even comparable to the vice president of Halliburton.

Nazarbayev couldn't see whether he was happy or not. He smiled and said with an unchanging smile, "It doesn't matter. The president's duty is to serve the public. Kazakhstan is still a learning country. We should treat friends around the world with a more open attitude."

"The President is indeed a flag of Central Asia..." Timsey cooperated with a few compliments to make the scene look better.

Aiman stood behind and looked at Timsey curiously and moved. Such a handsome figure is not easy to meet even in France. It's just a good appearance. It's rare to have status and status, and it's not too old...

After a few words of greeting, Tim West turned to Su Cheng and said, "Congratulations to Su Dong, Dahua Laboratory's research progress in carbon fiber, which is beyond our expectation. I came here this time to extend the cooperation between Halliburton and Dahua Industry to the field of materials."

Su Cheng listened inexplicably and looked forward to it. He said in English, "You get the news faster than me. To be honest, I don't know the progress of Dahua Laboratory in carbon fiber."

"We also learned through the Patent Office that Dahua Industrial has successfully researched anisotropic asphalt-based carbon fiber." Timsey does not hide the source. Super companies like them are searching for patents all the time. Although they don't want to be patent robbers, they always need to know something new in the field.

Su Cheng asked in surprise, "What attracts you?"

"There is a significant reduction in the cost on the patent specification, only for the words 10 for the same type of products. Considering your output, the company hopes to purchase part or all at the appropriate price." Timsey is in a posture of roundness.

It's not surprising. The annual output of carbon fiber in the world is very low. When it comes to a factory alone, the annual output of 100 tons of carbon fiber belongs to a large factory. The newly developed carbon fiber has an annual output of 10 tons is not bad. If the cost of 90 can really be reduced, Timothy can't wait for the more the better.

Carbon fiber is a product that is in short supply. Even in the 21st century, the output of carbon fiber cannot meet the standard of large-scale industrialization. At the very least, this kind of product that can replace steel is far from reaching the production capacity and cost of steel. Therefore, every price reduction of carbon fiber can strengthen its popularity, and its popularity actually depends more on its price.

No matter how bad the carbon fiber is, it also has the index advantages of traditional materials. Judging from the demand in the early 1990s, even the isotropic asphalt-based carbon fiber made by Wang Yun before is still a market, just a matter of making more and earning less. The indicators of anisotropic asphalt-based carbon fiber will definitely have a leap compared with the isotropic asphalt-based carbon fiber. As for the amount of jump, it is actually not important. Timsey only value the cost of 10.

Although this degree of cost reduction will not change the life of steel, there is no problem in removing the life of some precious metals. Judging from Halliburton's annual sales of tens of billions of dollars, it is really enough to consume as much carbon fiber as there is carbon fiber.

In the field of petroleum machinery, carbon fiber is inherently tough, with high modulus, high strength and corrosion resistance, each of which is needed by petroleum machinery. If carbon fiber is a ** material, if the cost of this thing can be reduced to the extent acceptable to oil companies, it can replace tens of millions of tons of steel every year, which means that an industry can consume 1,000 years of world production.

Su Cheng was happy and patted his forehead directly. He said to himself: The instructions on the patent specification must have been done by the guy who just jumped from the national research institute. He copied the things given to the domestic patent office.

94 years ago, Chinese patents were only aimed at China, and the Chinese Patent Office was also an administrative audit department, and it was quite strict. If you don't write "fill the domestic gap" or "achieve the world-class level" on your patent application. If you want to pass, just wait slowly. It won't take a year and a half to check.

Therefore, unlike foreign patent documents, the early domestic patent documents not only need to write technical things, but also brag about their own products. The more you brag, the greater the chance of passing. Even in senior research institutions such as the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the so-called experts and professors do not brag themselves, the disciples and grandchildren below should also Help to brag.

When it comes to foreign countries, the content such as "greatly reduced the cost, only for the same type of product 10" is dispensable. If it is a special research institution, it may also consider the idea of bragging about patents to sell them at a good price. Other laboratories will not write more and make trouble. It is written like this. Isn't it obvious that buyers can keep the price down?

If it's true, it's okay. If it's pure bragging, it will increase sales pressure.

Su Cheng thought carefully for a while and said with a smile, "My chairman is incompetent. The important news in China actually came from other companies. Mr. Timsey, please wait a moment. I'll call the company.

Timsey nodded with a smile and picked up the coffee cup.

Sucheng explained to Nazarbayev again before making a phone call outside the door. The presidential line in the room is not convenient for him to use.

It took about 10 minutes to connect to Dahua Laboratory after the cross-ocean phone call. During this period, Su Cheng slowly calmed down.

"Su Dong? Is it Su Dong?" At the other end of the phone, accompanied by a hoarse male voice, and if you listen carefully, you can still hear Wang Yun's tone.

"It's me. I heard that you have made a new carbon fiber?" The voice of Su City was amplified. At this time, the cross-border calls are terrible, at most the level of field calls.

"Yes, we are preparing to report to you that the Patent Office has accepted our patent, and the anisotropic asphalt-based carbon fiber has begun the factory test, and it is going very smoothly." Speaking of this, the sound of cheers came from the receiver, needless to say, the celebration in Dahua Laboratory.

Su Cheng's problem was shocked by the sound of the wave. After a moment, he smiled and said, "Congratulations, for your hard work."

Doing material experiments is the most boring thing in the world, just like Edison testing filament materials. Most of the experiment is a non-stop test. Test with wire and with bamboo wire. I heard that it has been tested with a friend's beard. Each material also needs to be tested with different treatment methods. Carbonized and native bamboo wire are different, and the test results of iron wire with different carbon content will not be the same.

Under modern technology, there are many ways to reduce the number of tests, but there will always be an infinite number of tests waiting for researchers.

It took a very short time to complete a material upgrade. In the eyes of laymen, it may have hit the good luck, but in the eyes of the insiders, it was just watered with more sweat.

Although Su Cheng has not done any real research work, he knows too much about the life of researchers in the five years since the establishment of Dahua Laboratory.

Taking out anisotropic carbon fiber in such a short time, Wang Yun and his team may have limited the number of times to go home. Otherwise, they would have been able to make anisotropic carbon fiber. Why did it take 2 years to make an isotropic asphalt-based carbon fiber?

Without Dayu's water control, without Dayu's water control**, and without Dayu's water control, it is impossible to complete this kind of research in advance.

There are two more words on the patent application report, which is nothing.

Su Cheng decided not to mention this matter in front of Wang Yun, and asked with a smile, "How about the parameters of the new carbon fiber?"

Speaking of heart, Wang Yun on the other end of the phone suddenly became shy and said with excitement, "You definitely can't guess."

"So awesome?"

"Of course!" If it hadn't been for the extreme excitement, Wang Yun, who was usually calm, would have said it directly. He didn't mention the parameters just now, just to shout out loudly now. Wang Yun, who only listened to the other end of the phone, said angrily, "The indicators of new materials are more than twice that of all same-sex asphalt-based The 150G modulus is definitely the strongest carbon fiber of the same type, the first in China!"

"What about the cost?"

"One-tenth of Toray in Japan."

"Is it really only 10%?" Now it was Su Cheng's turn to be stunned. He thought that the instructions on the patent application were more or less watery.
