Rebirth 99 to become a car giant.

Wenchong Shipyard used to be an inconspicuous existence in the Chinese shipbuilding industry.

After all, there are such prestigious entities as Hudong Shipyard and Dalian Shipyard, but it is not yet its turn to shine.

However, since cooperating with Nanshan Group companies such as Nanshan Equipment, the situation has begun to change.

Not to mention the several dredgers that are busy in the southern waters and are still playing a huge role. The electronic reconnaissance ship alone has brought everyone a huge surprise.

Today, there are still several electronic reconnaissance ships under construction in the dock of Wenchong Shipyard.

It can be said that in the field of special ship types, Wenchong Shipyard already has a place in the country.

Today is the launching ceremony of the LNG carrier that Wenchong Shipyard has high hopes for.

As a very difficult ship type in the shipbuilding industry, the demand for LNG carriers will become increasingly strong in the future.

The production orders for LNG carriers held by Samsung Heavy Industries in Korea have been scheduled for several years.

It can be said that as long as the production technology of LNG carriers is mastered, there will be no need to worry about life in the next ten years.

It's no wonder that Wenchong Shipyard was so focused on this project before.

"Mr. Cao, I'm so happy that you can come to participate in today's launching event."

"If it weren't for the various equipment provided by Yinwa Steel developed by Nanshan Special Steel and Nanshan Equipment, it would have taken at least five or six years for us to produce LNG carriers."

Although Xiang Jianghui was wearing work clothes today, he still looked in high spirits.

As a veteran in the shipbuilding industry, he is well aware of the significance behind the successful launch of the LNG carrier.

It can be said that from now on, Wenchong Shipyard will have a complete rise in the domestic shipbuilding industry.

The next step is to sit back and wait for various large orders to arrive.

"Mr. Xiang is being humble. Hudong Shipyard is already able to produce LNG carriers. If you follow the same path as them, you will be able to do it sooner or later. We just accelerated the process."

Be humble when you should be humble.

This is what China's business culture is like.

Therefore, Cao Yang is generally not so aggressive when dealing with state-owned enterprises.

no need!

"Yinwa Steel was monopolized by the French GTT in the past. The price is extremely expensive. The key is that if you want to place an order, you are not sure when the delivery time will be."

"Now that Nanshan Special Steel has mastered this special steel, when various shipyards in China produce LNG carriers in the future, they no longer need to worry about Yinwa Steel."

"In the past, Yinwa steel cost more than 100,000 yuan per ton, but now it only costs 50,000 to 60,000 yuan per ton, and the price has dropped by half."

"Coupled with the falling prices of other ancillary equipment, at the same sales price, the profit of our LNG ships will be much higher than that of other shipyards."

Xiang Jianghui had quite a lot of exchanges with Cao Yang.

Wenchong Shipyard can produce LNG carriers.

But he doesn't intend to engage in a price war.

It is unnecessary to directly raise prices with other competitors because your own costs have dropped.

The global production of LNG carriers is now in short supply.

Previously, the price of LNG carriers produced by Hudong Shipyard was already cheaper than that of Samsung Heavy Industries. Wenchong Shipyard can maintain the same level as Hudong Shipyard.

This is actually Cao Yang's idea.

After all, he didn't want to force Nanshan Special Steel and Nanshan Equipment to continue to cut prices just because Wenchong Shipyard was setting prices there.

Anyway, the biggest demanders for LNG carriers are the tycoon countries in the Middle East. You are welcome to earn a little money from them.

Why do you make everything so cheap?

Others may not necessarily be grateful to you!

"Mr. Xiang, our first LNG carrier was built for Sinopec. Have the subsequent orders been placed now?"

Although the entire LNG carrier industry is in a situation where supply exceeds demand, Wenchong Shipyard, as a new player, will definitely have some customers worried.

This is also normal.

So at the beginning, it was obviously easier to expand domestic customers.

Especially since we are all state-owned enterprises, communication will be easier.

Even if there is no problem with my LNG carrier, if you would rather buy a high-priced ship from overseas, then you need to explain it carefully.

Besides, the only countries in the world that can produce LNG carriers are Korea, Japan and China.

Even if Sinopec wants to import LNG carriers, it doesn’t know how long it will take to deliver them.

Therefore, as long as they want to quickly develop their LNG business, they have to find domestic shipyards to purchase them.

The orders from the Hudong Shipyard have been scheduled for three years.

"Currently, we have reached an agreement with Sinopec on the construction order for a second LNG carrier. As long as there are no problems with the first one during use, they will add at least three more in the future."

“By then, we should have found some orders from other customers as well.”

As long as the LNG carriers produced by Wenchong Shipyard are actually put into operation, there will be no worries about buyers not being interested.

If you want to ask Samsung Heavy Industries to produce an LNG carrier that you think is of good quality and reliable, it may take five years to deliver the ship.

If you go to Wenchong Shipyard, the ship can be delivered in two years.

In this case, are you willing to take a little risk?

Time is money.

No one has trouble with money.

Without enough LNG carriers, no matter how large your production capacity is, you will not be able to sell it for money.

The wealthy people in the Middle East must be aware of this.

"That would be the best. We have prepared so many large docks and we have to fill them up as soon as possible."

"By then, Wenchong Shipyard will be able to become one of China's top three large-scale shipyards."

As an important platform for the technology implementation of Nanshan Group enterprises, many products of Wenchong Shipyard will use Nanshan Group's new technologies.

This is true whether it is an electronic reconnaissance ship or an LNG carrier.

In the future, Venus Technology is even planning to work with Wenchong Shipyard to research some more special warships.

These are all based on the premise that Wenchong Shipyard can develop rapidly.

Otherwise, if nothing works, Cao Yang will not seek cooperation with them.

Cao Yang and Xiang Jianghui communicated for more than ten minutes. The launching ceremony will soon begin. Xiang Jianghui, the boss, naturally has a lot to deal with.

So Cao Yang, Xie Lingyun and others simply found a seat and sat down, and thoroughly participated in the entire process of the launching ceremony.

Although this is not the first LNG carrier in China, it is the LNG carrier with the highest localization rate.

It is also the second domestic shipyard capable of producing LNG carriers, so China Channel also specially arranged for reporters to come for interviews.
