100 help plan to cancel 111.2 billion foreign trade orders!China officially issued an "eviction order" not to even a single screw
Japan's imposition of sanctions on China, as well as the ** conflict between the two countries, have attracted widespread attention. This incident has led to a re-examination of the competitive landscape of the global machine tool manufacturing industry. Machine tools play an indispensable role in various industrial sectors, which is why countries around the world attach great importance to machine tool manufacturing.
On the international stage, the competition in the machine tool manufacturing industry is also showing a fierce situation. Japan is confident with its six of the world's top 10 machine tool factories, however, China has always faced challenges in this area. Despite the rapid development of China's industry, machine tool manufacturing has always been a major bottleneck in its development. Especially in the field of high-end machine tools, China's core technology accounts for only 6% of the total, compared to Japan, this figure is far behind Japan.
This gap has constrained China in the field of machine tools, not only Japan, but even Germany maintains a high degree of secrecy about its own core technology, and does not easily share it with other countries, especially China. Buying a machine tool from Japan is not an easy task, and it even requires Japanese experts to operate it themselves. What is even more infuriating is that the Japanese responsible person insulted the personality of the Chinese machine tool designers, claiming that the Chinese technical level could not understand their machine tools, and even refused China's request to visit the Japanese machine tool factory.
This series of events has triggered a deep thinking about the development of China's machine tool industry, and also made China's development path in this field face more challenges.
In the field of machine tools introduced in China, Japanese companies have almost monopolized the market. This is mainly due to the relatively limited technical level of our country in this field, resulting in the import of machine tools for many years has been a huge expenditure. In order to meet the needs of industrial production, China had to spend up to 80 billion yuan, and most of these funds went to Japan.
If this kind of ** is fair, our country will naturally have no objections. For Japan, however, China seems to be a market where there is a steady stream of profits. Japan does not only benefit from Japan in the form of barter, but also asks for high-end technology and labor fees.
What is even more infuriating is that even if our country meets these requirements, Japan still excludes and ignores China, trying to make China's machine tool manufacturing industry gradually decline.
As tensions between China and the United States continue to grow, Japan, as an ally of the United States, is also going all out. On the one hand, the United States has increased sanctions against China, on the other hand, in order to curry favor with the United States, Japan has formulated various restrictive measures, requiring China to prohibit the transfer of machine tools without permission, prohibit the production of high-end machine tools below 5 nanometers, and even impose restrictions on the production of machine tools.
However, the Japanese show is not over. Not long ago, a Japanese parliamentarian pointed directly at China in the revelations, believing that Japan should stop selling machine tools to China in order to completely restrict China's development.
Today, China is the leader of global industry, but Japan unceremoniously attributes China's achievements to themselves. They believe that China simply would not have been able to achieve such great results without the supply of machine tools from Japan. What is laughable is that some Japanese have come forward to propose that they should not give China the first machine tool at all, so as to prevent China's development.
We are very surprised by the recent remarks, and whether China pays to import Japanese machine tools or not, in fact, China's economic support for Japan in many areas is quite significant. We don't quite understand why Japan is so stiff with China, whether the United States is behind it, or whether the recent political elections have caused some politicians to promote "anti-China ideas".
However, it is worth noting that the fact that Japan was able to put forward such a bill, and even had to go through lengthy discussions to verify its feasibility, may reflect the mindset and political motivations of some people in Japan.
Looking back on the history of China's machine tools, in the early days of the founding of New China, China deeply realized that in order to gain a foothold in the world, we must first strengthen our national defense strength. Leaders at all levels attached great importance to it, and the provinces responded one after another, and began the competition of industrialization. In the first five-year plan, China recognized the importance of machine tools and identified them as the country's key research objects. In the process of overcoming technical difficulties in China, the development of machine tools has made significant breakthroughs.
China's machine tools soon ushered in the first period, the sales of several domestic enterprises in the international best, the development prospects are very optimistic. However, as Chinese machine tools have emerged in the international market, some Western countries have begun to notice this huge market in China. At that time, although Chinese companies were still trying to invest money in machine tool research, a large number of imported machine tools that met the standards had poured into the Chinese market.
Compared with investing time and money in research, imported machine tools are more convenient and technologically advanced. In the context of rapid global development, China's machine tools lack innovation, although the products produced exist, but the cost performance is suppressed by imported machine tools. As the benefits of imported machine tools from abroad gradually emerged, more and more factories chose to abandon the independent production of machine tools and turn to imports from abroad. This situation has led to the fact that China's machine tool industry has been hit hard by international competition at the initial stage, thus becoming a poison for China's machine tool manufacturing industry.
Although the introduced machines have excelled in efficiency and performance, corresponding limitations have followed. China lacks the corresponding machine tool manufacturing technology, and because the key operation methods are not taught abroad, such as starting and stopping, factory employees must rely on the "technical guidance" provided by foreign "experts" to obtain higher profits.
This may be beautified as supporting China's machine tool manufacturing, but to put it more bluntly, this is actually a disguised outflow of funds. In the process, if the machine tool in China fails, it is necessary to pay a high fee to hire foreign technicians to solve the problem.
Therefore, China's emphasis on machine tool manufacturing is particularly significant. Although it has always relied on foreign imports, its research investment in the field of machine tools has not decreased. Due to the sanctions imposed by the United States and Western countries on machine tools, China cannot rely on external technical support, and can only gradually overcome technical difficulties by self-reliance.
Although it will take a long time, it is not without hope. China has made progress in unnoticed corners, and has successfully broken through 001mm accuracy, which is extremely rare in the world. Unconsciously, China's high-end machine tool technology has reached the world's leading level.
However, this is not the limit for our country. Although machine technology has reached new heights, it doesn't stop there. In the future, China will continue to grasp the CNC technology to improve, in order to further improve the accuracy of machine tools.
At present, China has mastered the core component technology of machine tools, no longer needs to rely on foreign technical support, and has realized independent collaborative operation, which saves time and effort.
It is worth mentioning that in terms of technological improvement, thanks to the support of Zhang Haiou, a professor at Huazhong University of Science and Technology, 3D machine tool technology has made new breakthroughs, and the forging, casting and milling three-in-one machine tool came into being, opening a new chapter for international machine tool manufacturing.
The advent of this technology has significantly reduced the time required for intermediate processes, and the United States has attached great importance to this technology, and has quickly expressed its willingness to buy it, even willing to invest three billion dollars. This shows that the importance of the technology cannot be ignored. However, China has now become stronger, firmly rejecting the request of the United States and imposing export restrictions on the machine.
Japan was nervous after the decision. In recent years, Japan's restrictive measures against China have attracted widespread attention in the international community, and this is not a fiction of Japan. From chips to machine tools, Japan has been trying to find a balance between the two sides, trying to test China's bottom line.
China will not sit idly by as Japan's apparent tilt toward the United States. Although Japan has been vacillating internationally, sometimes provoking China and sometimes pandering to the United States, China has always advocated the valuance of peace and repeatedly issued warnings through diplomatic channels, but it has rarely made substantial progress. This time, despite the previously agreed machine order, Japan hesitated again, as if it would lose money by selling some goods.
Moreover, China has successfully independently developed machine tools equivalent to the international level, which provides sufficient support for its own use. In the face of Japan's uncertainties, China adhered to the principle of "respect" and resolutely decided not to buy again. As of this year, China has canceled a total of 111.2 billion Japanese machine tool orders, according to preliminary statistics, Japan's economic income is declining month by month.
This decision saddened the Japanese machine tool manufacturers, and the machine tools produced in large quantities could not be sold in time and had to be shelved. However, due to the already huge flow of funds, many machine tool manufacturing factories have fallen into a negative profitability, and in order to relieve the pressure, some factories have even taken measures such as layoffs.
Recently, Japanese society has ushered in a wave of bankruptcies and unemployment, which has led to social unrest and a dreary atmosphere. In this case, the masses directly pushed the blame to Japan**, which caused Japan's plan to deviate, and in fact shot itself in the foot. This begs the question of whether Japan still wants to gain a foothold in the Chinese market.
China has always been reluctant to take a hard line against any country in the international arena. However, Japan seems to have repeatedly ignored China's warnings, which eventually led to China's countermeasures, which became self-defeating.
Of course, this is also a warning from China to the international community, indicating that China will resolutely defend its legitimate rights and interests and will never interfere with or hinder the development of any country. However, China will take strong countermeasures against any attempt to interfere with or hinder China's development.
