Ruiweile, the son of Baisha, is located in a manufacturing cluster that has become the largest supplier in the Wengji region. The total weight of trade and transportation has exceeded the Phoenix Kingdom's trade volume with this region.
The group is a bit agitated, and many attempts to persuade them to imitate firearms have failed.
It's not that they are blind and cannot see the profits from weapons sales, but that the risks involved are too huge.
Ruiweile Manufacturing Cluster is currently the highest-level equipment purchaser outside the Phoenix Kingdom. Once the Phoenix Kingdom is angered, others will adjust the "goodwill level" and the equipment that can be purchased will immediately be lowered by several levels.
If the equipment is not good enough, the products produced will lose their quality advantage and fall to the same level as other production clusters, and the sales side will also shrink.
Another point is that Ruiweile Group has been trying to enter the chemical industry in recent years. During this period, it must not offend the Phoenix Kingdom. Otherwise, without their support, no one can build a chemical plant out of thin air.
Recently, this negotiation has entered the final feasibility study stage. This stage mainly discusses how to manufacture some large devices locally. With this goal alone, Ruiweile Group can obtain an opportunity to fully upgrade the steel manufacturing facilities at a relatively small cost.
In short, no matter how great the external demand is, Ruiweile Group cannot get involved in weapons manufacturing. At most, it will leak out a few technical personnel pretending not to know.
It's just that there was an unexpected situation a few days ago, which made the bosses of the manufacturing cluster a little confused.
Tianshu Daily used an entire page to disclose the details and principles of magic firearms, and used more than half of the page to introduce a solution for stepless adjustment of firing power used in firearms.
Groups like Ruiweile Manufacturing Cluster, which is closely connected with the Phoenix Kingdom's manufacturing industry, will purchase Tianshu newspaper along with regular cargo flights, and the date will be delayed by up to two days.
"The Tianshu Newspaper is under the direct jurisdiction of the Phoenix Kingdom's top management. If they release this, are they releasing the gun production license?"
"Don't worry, let's take a look first."
The Ruiweile manufacturing cluster will soon evolve into a complex industrial cluster covering steelmaking, household metal utensils, profiles, and chemicals. Next, it will achieve comprehensive import substitution and win the "full steel industry" in addition to high-end equipment design and manufacturing. industrial chain” and got involved in fertilizer production.
You must not make any mistakes during this period, otherwise big problems will arise if you mess around with guns, ammunition and production equipment, especially the threat of demons is getting bigger and bigger. Many problems will only get worse after a few years. Danger.
The top management of the group stopped silently, and it turned out that there were some problems.
By sending personnel to the Phoenix Kingdom for consultation, they obtained formal projectile supplier qualifications in a short period of time.
The difference from imitation manufacturers is that as officially recognized suppliers, they will get information such as projectile modifications as soon as possible, and can use this to purchase professional equipment and kits. The projectiles do not need to be turned one by one on a lathe, and can be made into Batch production.
But when it comes to firearms, the Phoenix Kingdom has no intention of licensing them.
Due to the close relationship, there are people in the City of White Veil and the surrounding floating islands who specialize in studying the various systems of the Phoenix Kingdom. After analysis by these professionals, they probably mean that they can be imitated, but they cannot use the Phoenix Kingdom's brand name.
If it is from Xiaojia Xiaoyuan, with this analysis result, it may be launched directly, but the Ruiweile manufacturing cluster is difficult to move.
Of course, they have just received authorization to produce projectiles, and they are indeed in no rush to get guns. The consumption of projectiles will increase in the future, and it will take time and money to adjust production and supply chains.
Being able to endure the itching is indeed beneficial.
One month after Tianshu News disclosed the principles of firearms, Ruiweile Group received a series of new authorizations.
This batch of authorizations allows Ruiweile Group to transform into an equipment provider and produce and sell some light processing equipment.
The so-called light equipment naturally corresponds to heavy equipment.
Based on our years of experience, a simple understanding of the difference is that the light-duty machine is responsible for a single processing link, while the heavy-duty machine is the concept of the production chain, directly outputting finished products from raw materials.
For example, the projectile processing equipment that was just negotiated this month will require a total of 22 flights to transport, including six processing equipment. The rest are conveyor belts, sorters, cables, etc. After deployment, it will occupy an area of over a hundred square meters. .
The lightest piece of equipment in this batch of authorized equipment is a workshop lathe. Including the magic energy reserve end, the entire machine weighs only 300 kilograms. In this state, it cannot be used directly. The buyer has to find a way to get one. Only a solid enough base to fix the machine tool can ensure a certain processing accuracy.
Although the other party didn't say it clearly, Ruiweile Group has been processing it for long enough, and if you ask the technicians, you will know that they can produce guns!
I don’t know whether the gun made will be useful or not, but at least it can be made.
As with previous cooperation, Phoenix Kingdom's authorization is not just a piece of paper, but also subsequent supporting support.
At this stage, Ruiweile Group can only be responsible for the steel processing part, and will later be responsible for the production of motors and the assembly of magic modules.
The entire plan is to reduce shipping pressure. After completion, the Phoenix Kingdom will only provide paint, the internal energy unit of the magic module and tool steel, and the rest will be solved within the territory of Ongi.
However, people nearby were not as patient as them. When the Ruiweile Group was preparing for the heavy industry workshop, there was already a floating island nearby that was selling homemade rifles.
"Buy a few and give them to the security guards to play with." Ruiweile himself is well aware of the overall productivity distribution in the penal colony and doesn't take it seriously. However, these gun-making forces may become their customers in the future, so they should understand. Still need to understand things.
Not surprisingly, home-made rifles have popped up recently. Compared with the foreign trade rifles sold in the Phoenix Kingdom, they are almost like a pile of scrap metal.
In the actual gun evaluation by the security guards, the effective hitting range of these homemade guns with homemade bullets was less than 100 meters, and some even failed to hit targets as big as heads 50 meters away.
"When we start selling light equipment, the situation may be better, and it is better than the vast majority of people not being qualified to participate in the war now." Some directors have a fair evaluation of the soil gun.
From a sales perspective, local guns do have their existence. After all, the Phoenix Kingdom is only a small territory, and the total number of guns that can be exported each year is also limited. In order to achieve a sufficient gun equipment rate in areas facing the threat of demons, there must be alternatives. Taste.
"They moved their guns too quickly. It seems like we don't need to get in."
A small ship can easily turn around, but a large group can achieve certain results in terms of quality. But in the current situation, there will be many types of imitation guns, and there will always be some that can do a better job. In this case, wait for Rui Wilo Group entered the market, only for soup.
"Well, the focus now is to urge them to unify the caliber and not hinder us from selling bullets."
It is still necessary to grasp the key contradictions. The Ruiweile Group itself has nearly 80,000 employees. Together with the surrounding directly related industrial clusters, the total number of jobs provided is hundreds of thousands.
The large size is not suitable for one-time transactions. On the contrary, products such as projectiles with low profit output and guaranteed output are more reliable.
The projectile processing equipment they purchased this time can produce projectiles of different calibers by changing molds. However, the fewer the calibers, the better the production management and production efficiency. Therefore, it is still necessary to control the format of the native gun.
Anyway, the cost of processing bullets in the workshop cannot be reduced to a particularly low level. As long as the group puts a little pressure on profits, it can make the gun manufacturers obey.
