Chapter 32 Want to raise the price? No, our cooperation is over!

"Super-thrust aircraft engine? Are you kidding?"

Qin Huaichang, with strong doubts, decisively pulled out the top card.

[Analysis of the drive system of a new type of ultra-high thrust aircraft engine]

[EEC will adjust HMU according to the current thrust in proportion to reduce the current fuel efficiency to]

[The gearbox drives the output power supply to work at a frequency of 415hz. To reduce the possibility of damage by N2 speed, the constant speed drive device and AC motor will ensure fixed speed drive.]

What is most eye-catching here is not the detailed explanation of the engine's technical design.

The number marked at the bottom is the maximum thrust of 520KN.
"Hiss, 520KN thrust? That's a high design target?"

Qin Huaichang took a deep breath, his teeth were a little sour: "No wonder the higher-ups want to build a super-large civil airliner."

520KN is equivalent to an incredible figure of 53 tons of thrust. This kind of high-thrust engine is completely useless unless it is a super-large civil airliner.

Even if the aerodynamic layout of the aircraft itself is a little worse, this engine can be described as powerful as a flying brick, and there is absolutely no mistake in describing it.

"Lao Xu, where are the following other technical outlines and the entire technical implementation process? Where did you hide them?" Qin Huaichang flipped through several pages but couldn't find them, and asked anxiously.

"The remaining information is still at Xia Ke Institute." Xu Qianren smiled happily.

Just when he was slowly about to pour himself a cup of tea, Qin Huaichang, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, filled it up directly.

"When will Xiake Institute send the remaining technology to us?" Qin Huaichang's wrinkled face looked like a flower blooming.

"After the C919 project is resumed, the follow-up information will be sent to COMAC." Xu Qianren drank the tea poured by Qin Huaichang, his heart bubbling with joy.

As old friends for many years, it is quite rare to be able to take advantage of this.

The draft design drawing in front of him was just a small part of the technical outline he got from Xia Ke Institute.

As for the complete version of the technology, it will have to wait until the C919 project is resumed and then will be gradually submitted to COMAC.

After taking two sips, he continued, "How is it? Is what I said about our self-developed super-large civil airliner true?"

"How confident are you that you can successfully develop it?"

This was the reason why he urgently sought out Qin Huaichang for technical consultation. With COMAC's R&D capabilities, could it independently develop an ultra-large civil airliner of this level?
"If subsequent design drafts are similar to this engine technology."

Qin Huaichang couldn't stop grinning: "I am absolutely sure that we can successfully develop the C919 super-large civil airliner project."

Although there are only a few dozen drafts, for Qin Huaichang, who has devoted decades of research to the field of civil aviation, it is not difficult to tell how authentic it is.

Apart from anything else, the level of detail of this super-high thrust engine technology alone is not inferior to the integrated propulsion engine system provided by CFM.

"I can rest assured that."

After hearing this solemn promise, Xu Qianren finally put his mind at ease.

Suddenly I remembered the scene of him taking a flight back to Shanghai this morning.

Whether it was the flight he was taking or the various civil airliners parked at the airport, none of them were produced or developed by Daxia.

Xu Qianren began to murmur in his heart: "Wait, Boeing and Airbus, our Daxia's 100% domestically developed large aircraft is coming soon!"

Just like the name COMAC919.

This is not as simple as just developing a large aircraft. This is the will of Daxia and the expectation of the people. After sitting in the office chair for a long time, Xu Qianren finally remembered something.

He picked up the phone on the table and said, "Please make an appointment with the representative of CFM in Daxia. I have an urgent matter regarding the contract for the 'Integrated Propulsion Engine' that needs to be negotiated."

on Monday.

It is still the conference room of the administrative building of Daxia Commercial Aircraft Corporation.

Although Xu Qianren had an appointment with CFM's representatives at Daxia branch on Sunday, they still did not arrive until Monday.

He didn't even come in the morning, but finally arrived at the meeting room at around four o'clock, close to the end of get off work.

"Mr. Boden, the time we agreed to meet is in the morning, and you are seriously late." Xu Qianren frowned.

Charles Borden is the executive general manager of CFM in Greater China.

It wasn't just that they were late, the entire team consisted of only three people, one of whom was a translator.

This is a high-level contract negotiation, and the arrogance is evident.

"Xu, is there anything I need to add to the contract this time?"

Charles Borden raised a polite smile: "Do we need to speed up the development and deployment of the LEAP-X engine, an integrated propulsion system?"

In his opinion, the most likely reason why COMAC approached CFM this time was that it needed to speed up the development of the LEAP-X engine, which is the core of the C919 project.

A translator began to translate the content.

Before Xu Qianren could reply, Charles Borden said, "Xu, if you are looking for us for this problem, I am sorry. Our R&D staff are too busy, and the current R&D progress has reached its limit."

"You know, we at CFM have more than just the LEAP-X engine project."

What he meant was that if the discussion this time was about speeding up the research and development process, then forget it.

Of course, there is another meaning, which is to add money.

What R&D staff are too busy? Are there more than just the LEAP-X engine under development?
Judging from the fact that the negotiations could be postponed for one day, it was not busy at all. It was clearly just an excuse. The core meaning was to increase the money.

"Mr. Boden, you misunderstood. We have no objection to the development of your LEAP-X engine."

Xu Qianren didn't take it to heart at all and simply shook his head: "And this is not what we need to negotiate this time."

Anyway, COMAC has no plans to purchase LEAP-X as an integrated propulsion system, so you can develop it whenever you want.

"Then are there any other contract terms that need to be negotiated?" Charles Borden was a little confused. CFM International has nothing else to offer except this?
However, Xu Qianren said something that he absolutely could not believe.

"The content of this negotiation," Xu Qianren suddenly changed his words, "No, it should be a notice that the cooperation framework that we, Daxia Commercial Aircraft, had previously reached with your CFM International can now be cancelled."

Anyway, the contract has not been formally signed, it is just a preliminary memorandum of cooperation.

Now Xu Qianren has officially notified CFM to cancel this cooperation framework, which is a very thoughtful consideration. In most cases, other companies would simply shelve it.

however.

Hearing this, Charles Borden was puzzled: "WTF? You want to cancel the cooperation?"

I just wanted to raise the price, why did you overturn the table?
