When will I have a long tassel?

The first China Machine Tool Exhibition in Chicago, abbreviated as "CME (Chicago) 2012", entered the pre-publicity stage two weeks in advance. Bao Nana personally led a public relations team to the United States to arrange various publicity activities.

The use of Dahe drone aerial performances for publicity is an integral part of the publicity offensive planned by Bao Nana. Choosing this method is very meaningful.

If you ignore military drones that cost millions of dollars, Chinese brands represented by Dahe Drone have already gained a monopoly in terms of consumer drones. Several original American brands on the market have been photographed on the beach and become dried fish.

There are many Chinese products that can monopolize the U.S. market, but most of them are traditional products, such as socks, gloves, toys, traditional home appliances, etc. This type of product is characterized by low technical requirements and labor-intensive products. American workers have delicate bodies and high labor costs. It is normal for the production of these products to flow from the United States to China, and it is even something the American business community likes to see.

Drones are one of the few high-tech products in which China has been able to gain a monopoly in the U.S. market. Even removing the word "one" may not be a big problem. The success of Dahe UAV does not rely on China’s cheap labor force, but China’s manufacturing foundation. The special machine tools customized by Linji for Dahe Company can greatly improve the processing efficiency of drone parts and reduce their manufacturing costs. This also means that the industrial competition between China and the United States has entered a new stage.

Bao Nana learned about this situation from Tang Zifeng and suggested that this should be regarded as an important topic at this machine tool exhibition. The United States is currently undergoing a new round of general elections, and both parties in the campaign have proposed promoting the "return of manufacturing."

If the United States wants to revitalize its manufacturing industry, machine tools, as industrial mother machines, are indispensable. So, who has the best industrial machine tools? Looking at the successful experience of Dahe UAV, don’t American business owners have any ideas?

"Changying Manufacturing - The technical code behind Dahe drones dominating the global market"

This is an article published in the "Wall Street Journal". Its author is Cockayne, who witnessed the drone performance in Dahe. The article quoted the views of several technical experts in the industry, pointing out that the rise of Dahe drones is a manifestation of the comprehensive upgrading of China's manufacturing industry. China has got rid of the situation at the bottom of the global industrial chain and has begun to enter the middle and even the middle of the industrial chain. High end.

Cockayne analyzed the relationship between Dahe UAV and Changying Machine Tool, claiming that this is the real secret to the success of Dahe UAV. He also reminded that China's equipment manufacturing industry can no longer be viewed from a traditional perspective. The Chinese have been able to design and manufacture first-class industrial equipment to support their competition in the field of high-tech products. In contrast, the U.S. machine tool industry has been in decline for a long time, and U.S. industrial production has to rely on machine tools from Europe or Japan.

"If machine tools from China can be as high-quality and cheap as other products from China, maybe there will be a new choice for the revitalization of the manufacturing industry in the United States. Now, I have some thoughts about the first China Machine Tool Exhibition to be held in Chicago. Something to look forward to.”

This is what Cockayne lamented at the end of the article.

In all conscience, Cockane is really not a gunman hired by Bao Nana, he is just a sharp-eyed market analyst. His greatest strength is his ability to see things from the smallest detail. From a drone performance he encountered on the road, he can associate it with many deep-seated industrial development issues.

After Cockayne, many market analysts and media commentators published articles in newspapers and websites, commenting on the upcoming China Machine Tool Show, and also introduced many things that are little known in the United States, such as A few years ago, China developed the world's largest seven-axis, five-linkage vertical machining center. For example, China is currently able to manufacture more than 3,000 types of CNC machine tools, ranking first in the world in terms of models.

Some of these articles are written by the analysts themselves, and some are the masterpieces of Bao Nana’s team. After years of training, Bao Nana has reached the level of mastery in manipulating public opinion. She knows how to arouse the audience's interest and how to make the audience believe in the articles they read.

"China Machine Tool Exhibition, is there really something worth seeing?"

This is the thought of many people in American industry and investment circles during this period. The U.S. economy has just climbed out of the quagmire, and there is a faint glimmer of recovery in the market. Everyone is looking for business opportunities. The China Machine Tool Show has already been abuzz with hype before it even started, and many people felt the need to take a look.

On September 15, the China Machine Tool Show in Chicago officially opened, attracting entrepreneurs, engineers and investment bank managers from all over the United States. Of course, there are also media reporters and pure soy sauce people who come to seek news.

"Look, what is this!"

Walking into the door of the exhibition center, everyone's eyes were attracted by a machine tool placed in the center of the hall. This is a gantry machining center with a length and height of seven or eight meters. Every component has a dark blue metallic luster, giving it a heavy industrial aesthetic.

For those guests from manufacturing companies, such a machine tool is not novel enough. What attracts them is a large component being processed on the machine tool. On the machine tool, several cantilevers are moving back and forth, and the tools on the cantilevers are rotating rapidly, cutting off pieces of metal chips from the workpiece.

The processing of the machine tool has been going on for some time, and the outline of the part gradually emerged. It is the Statue of Liberty that all Americans are very familiar with.

"I sell cakes, and here is actually a sculpture of the Statue of Liberty."

"How did they do that?"

"In fact, this is not difficult. You can complete the modeling by scanning the Statue of Liberty in New York Harbor, and then input the data into the machine tool for processing."

"It's easy for you to say, why can't your company produce such a statue?"

"Well, why would we produce a statue like this?"

"Look, look, what's coming face to face with the Statue of Liberty?"

"It looks like a warrior, and it seems to have an Asian face."

"I recognized it. Those are China's Terracotta Warriors and Horses. Oh, my cake seller, they are dancing a waltz, right?"

"A Statue of Liberty is waltzing, and she's dancing with the Terracotta Warriors and Horses in China. This world is so crazy!"

“Ha, this is really interesting news, I must post it to our website right away!”

More and more people gathered around the machine tool, and everyone could see clearly that what was being processed on the machine tool was a pair of waltzing partners, the Statue of Liberty, who had been lonely for more than a century, and the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of the Qin Emperor, who had also been lonely for two thousand years. Hugging each other, they look like a mixed beauty.

The reporters went crazy, all their guns and cannons were aimed at the machine tool, and the shutter sound was loud, covering up the cutting noise of the machine tool. The flashlight made the terracotta warriors feel embarrassed, their eyes flickered, and they wished they could come alive immediately.

"Are these machine tools also manufactured by you Chinese?"

Someone gathered around the yellow-skinned staff member next to the machine tool and began to ask questions.

"Yes, this machine tool is manufactured by China Danzhang Machine Tool Company. I am the sales representative of Danzhang Machine Tool Company. Our Danzhang Machine Tool Company developed this machine tool to process large-scale pressure for the third-generation nuclear power plant under construction in China. Container parts. The one on display now is a simplified version that can only cut soft alloys."

The staff member replied in fluent English.

"For such a machine tool, I mean, the original machine tool, what is your quotation?"

This is a question asked by the purchasing manager of an American company. The company he works for is preparing to purchase a machining center with this specification. Judging from the on-site performance of the machine tool, it fully meets their requirements.

"$22 million."

"Only 22 million US dollars! No, no, no, I mean, this price is still too high. Can you lower the price a little bit? ...What, go to the negotiation room to negotiate, okay, okay, but I need to do it first. Make a call and have our engineers rush over right away.”

The purchasing manager squeezed out of the crowd and hid in a corner to make a phone call. He was filled with ecstasy because for the same machine tool, German companies quoted more than 40 million U.S. dollars, and Japanese companies also reported more than 35 million U.S. dollars, while the Chinese offered only 22 million U.S. dollars. It is said that there is still room for negotiation. Isn’t this pie in the sky?

The expert is watching the door, the layman is watching the excitement. Audiences who were excited by the waltz performance of the Terracotta Warriors and the Statue of Liberty flocked to various exhibition halls and began to look for products of interest to them.

“This model shows the automobile flexible production line recently developed by our Linhe Machine Tool Group. The entire production line includes more than 800 cutting machine tools of various types, which can simultaneously complete the processing of automobile engines, chassis, gearboxes, wheel hubs and other components.

"The biggest feature of this production line is that it can quickly adjust the processing method according to instructions, and can change a model in as little as half an hour, which greatly adapts to the changing demand trend in today's automobile market."

In the exhibition room of Linji Group, Li Tiantian held a laser pointer in her hand and pointed at a sandbox model, making an introduction to General Motors' purchasing director Vigor and Baltimore plant manager Joe Sit.

Li Tiantian told Qiao Xit and his engineers several times about the same words more than a month ago, but Qiao Xit and others were skeptical about Li Tiantian's introduction because they had not seen the actual product.

Just now, everyone saw a variety of Chinese machine tools at the exhibition, and some of them were still being demonstrated, which left a deep impression on people. At this time, when they listened to Li Tiantian's introduction, they no longer had any contempt or suspicion in their hearts. In the minds of Vigor and Josit, an idea began to arise:

Perhaps using Chinese machine tools is a wise choice.
