The Military-industrial Scientific Research System of the Academic Master Chapter 574

Chapter 574 Is this really a fake immortal?

According to Chang Haonan's experience, Europe generally does not move very quickly, so the top priority is to thoroughly investigate the OEM fraud incident involving NSK.

 Firstly, it is to know yourself and the enemy in the subsequent layout, and to obtain the maximum benefit by calculating mentally and unintentionally.

 Secondly, we must first give a warning to the country, or at least the Science and Technology Commission system.

 At least let everyone be more careful when considering Japanese suppliers in the future.

  After all, this time I just bought the bearings produced by Huaxia as OEM. It was just a waste of money at most, but at least it would not cause any quality problems.

 But who knows how many undiscovered bad things are hidden behind this?

 Those things that were discovered more than 20 years later were almost all related to defects in the products themselves.

 Being more vigilant can't hurt.

By the way, it can also dispel some people's stereotypes.

Therefore, when Lan Xinzhi was about to leave after talking about the matter, Chang Haonan specifically stopped him:

“Send someone as soon as possible in the next few days to Bingcheng Bearing Group to check their sales in the past six months. Pay special attention to whether there are a large number of customers who have stable purchases but cannot see any clear purpose.”

As the director of the Equipment Industry Department, Lan Xinzhi will naturally follow up on the situation of the die forging press project in real time.

He already knew that Chang Haonan suspected that NSK bearings were OEM. The initial shock stage had passed, so unlike Liao Xinhua, Yan Yongnian and other people before, who still needed extra time to digest, he could also guess that Chang Hao The purpose of this instruction:

 “I'll make arrangements as soon as I get back.”

 After answering, he hesitated a little:

“But Mr. Chang, Bingcheng Bearing Group is not under the leadership of our Equipment Industry Department. If we just go ahead and directly ask for their business data, I'm afraid the other party may not cooperate, right?”

Chang Haonan waved his hand:

“It doesn't matter. I have had some dealings with Zhang Xu, the former head of R&D of Ice Axis Group, oh, he should be the deputy general manager now.”

"I have contacted him before in Jiangcheng. There will be no problem. Just ask someone to bring the letter of introduction and official letter. If you find any useful evidence, you can even make a copy and bring it back. After all, If this matter can have a greater impact, it will also be meaningful to their group's operations and brand image.”

 At this point, he changed the topic again:

“Of course, the comrades we send there must also be reliable and ensure that they do not reveal other people's business secrets. Trust cannot be treated as a child's play.”

 At this time, Lan Xinzhi basically admired Chang Haonan.

 As expected of Mr. Chang, not only has a wide network of contacts all over the world, but he has already taken care of everything...

 After thinking for a moment, he answered:

"Then I'll let Lin Baohua and Fan Wenkang go there together. They can be looked after and supervised. Moreover, they have clean backgrounds and have worked with you before."

Chang Haonan quickly remembered that these two people went to Jiangzhong with him last year to investigate the situation, and they indeed knew the basics:

 “The two of them have also been transferred to the Equipment Industry Department?”

Lan Xinzhi nodded:

“Yes, when the new department was established, two people took the initiative to apply and are now working as team leaders in the Industrial Coordination Office.”

When the two of them went to Jiangcheng with Chang Haonan before, their rank should have been chief section officer, which was equivalent to a full-time clerk.

 According to the establishment, the most basic department of the ministries and commissions is the office at the division level, and there are no actual department-level leadership positions.

 But when dealing with some trivial tasks, people of this level are needed to take care of things.

 So although team leader is just an internal term, the weight of his position is completely different.

“Okay, let's take them, just to see if they have the ability to stand on their own.”

Although he does not have a formal position in the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense, at least in the Equipment Industry Department, Chang Haonan's words still carry a lot of weight.

Chang Haonan originally selected these two people because they did not have other complicated backgrounds in the capital and their positions were relatively reliable.     In the future, there will inevitably be times when such people are used.

"Also, let the companies under the Equipment Industry Department check to see if there are any similar situations. Actions of this scale and level cannot be hidden from peers in Japan. Since there has been no news for so long, I I don't think other Japanese companies in the industry are doing much better.”

It should be said that as long as the system of the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense is in operation, its work efficiency is indeed very high.

 Even somewhat exceeded Chang Haonan's initial expectations.

 In less than a week, first-hand information or clues from various sources came to Chang Haonan.

"Dear leaders and comrades, according to our investigation during this period, we can confirm that NSK and NTN purchased large quantities of finished products from Bingcheng Bearing Group and Luoyi Bearing Group, repackaged and calibrated them in Japan, and then pretended to be them. The products they produce are then sold back to our country and they make huge profits.”

In the conference room on the top floor of the Science and Technology Commission, Chang Haonan held up a document in his hand and said loudly to everyone present.

 Still an enlarged meeting of the leadership team of the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense.

It's just that in addition to Chang Haonan, Lan Xinzhi was also included this time—

 The director of the Equipment Industry Department was not originally a member of the team.

 When he was a secretary before, he participated as a record-keeper rather than a participant.

 After finishing speaking, Chang Haonan picked up another one from the piles of documents in front of him:

“Beginning in the fourth quarter of last year, the two groups registered and established a number of small and inconspicuous companies in several coastal provinces under different names, and then purchased large quantities of finished products from Bingzhuan and Luozhou at wholesale prices, and then purchased them for repairs. The parts are shipped back to Japan for OEM operations, and the profit gained from such a change of hands is on average more than 5.5 times that of our domestic manufacturers!”

 When Chang Haonan said this, some people could no longer hold their nerve.

 But he immediately picked up a third document:

“A total of 74 bearing models can be found, mainly in the three fields of vehicles, construction machinery and machine tool equipment, especially vehicles.”

“For example, NTN Company, as one of the designated suppliers of domestic Santana automobile wheel hub bearings, purchased 350,000 bearings from Luozhou Axis through white gloves this year alone, of which more than 310,000 have been resold domestically.”

 “310,000?”

Such horrific figures have shocked everyone for a whole year, so much so that Deputy Director Zhang Dongxu shook his hands and spilled the water:

“I remember that Santana only sold 240,000 units last year. Less than four months have passed this year. Even if there are 60,000 vehicles and 240,000 wheels, wouldn't it be..."

 “That's right.”

Chang Haonan nodded and replaced it with another new document:

“We sampled 115 wheel bearings used in this year's new Santana in different cities and found that they were all produced by Luozhou, and none of them used NTN's representative processes and materials.”

“And that's not all, through communication with the car manufacturer, we found that the performance calibration of the wheel bearing technical manual provided by NTN is even higher than the factory calibration of Luozhou Axle!”

 Others, even Lan Xinzhi, were speechless.

 It's just a matter of OEM. After co-writing and labeling, do you still need to add water to the performance indicators?

 Actually, let alone anyone else.

Even though Chang Haonan himself was mentally prepared, he was still stunned by NTN's operation—

 I knew you could fake things, but I didn't know you were so good at it.

 Are you really just making a fake immortal?
