Chapter 1201 Can Eight Be Greater than Twelve?

"It's not impossible to do it."

The voice was very light and casual.

But in the ears of several people, it was a strong confidence.

What they didn't know was that Yang Xiaotao's confidence came from the system and the design drawings of the turbojet engine in the space.

Yes, he had ready-made drawings, and they were ahead of the times.

If he was given time to thoroughly understand, it would not be difficult to design it.

But now is not the time.

Because with his current ability as an eighth-level engineer, his research on this set of design drawings only stayed on the surface.

How can he take it out if he can't study it thoroughly?

This is also the reason why he wants to upgrade.

Only by upgrading the system, gaining more knowledge and experience with the help of the system, and improving his own abilities, can these rewarded good things be turned into actual benefits.

And this is what he wants to do.

The scene was quiet again, only the engine was still banging there, black smoke was discharged from the chimney, and there was a smell of burning diesel around.

Director Zheng looked at Yang Xiaotao from the side. Although he knew that the son-in-law of the old Ran family was extraordinary, and although he had seen Yang Xiaotao's strong design ability, he knew too much about the design of turbojet engines.

Because this is what he is in charge of now.

Previously, the P-13 turbojet engine provided by the alliance had been obtained, and he wanted to develop his own turbojet engine based on it. This is also the reason why the Third Machine Department and the Logistics Department jointly developed it.

Because of this, he knew the difficulty of it.

Even with the reference of the drawings, he couldn't make it. Yang Xiaotao actually said it so confidently, which made him feel like a young man who was not afraid of tigers.

But this was said by Yang Xiaotao, which made him feel that this kid could do it.

In fact, it was not just him. Even Liu Huaimin and Chen Gong who listened to it at the side had the first feeling that what Yang Xiaotao said was true.

But when he turned his head and thought about it, he rejected this matter in his heart.

There is no way, that is the engine of the aircraft, not as simple as a diesel engine.

Besides, the premise of Yang Xiaotao's words is data and time.

Give him ten or eight years, maybe he can really make it.

With these ten or eight years, it is better to stay in the machinery factory and make more cylinder diesel engines.

"Okay, haha, good boy, you have ambition."

Mr. Zhang suddenly laughed, and his eyes became softer and more appreciative when he looked at Yang Xiaotao.

Mr. Huang also laughed, "Don't be arrogant, take it step by step. When the design is really completed, I will take you to the Third Ministry of Machine Building to ask for benefits and sell it at a good price."

Mr. Huang interrupted, and Mr. Zhang laughed immediately.

"Make the transport vehicle as soon as possible. If you have any difficulties, just tell me."

"Also, give me a copy of your engine drawings."

Yang Xiaotao looked at Mr. Huang, and the other party nodded and said, "Commander, there are still difficulties, that is, those alloy materials. If there are not enough of this thing, it can't be made."

"The material is easy to say. This time, your First Ministry of Machine Building has also gained a lot of benefits. We will take out a part of it here, and I believe it can hold up for a while."

Mr. Huang smiled bitterly on the side. The materials that were finally obtained are estimated to fly away again.

But good steel is used on the blade, and it is not a loss to use it on this engine.

As for what to do with these materials after they are used up?

Neither of them mentioned it, because it was useless to say it. In addition to using foreign exchange to purchase imports, they could only rely on domestic metallurgical comrades, hoping that they could solve the material problem as soon as possible.

"As long as we have the materials, there will be no problem with our production here."

Yang Xiaotao guaranteed on behalf of the machinery factory, and Mr. Huang nodded.

Then Mr. Zhang left first. He wanted to go back and hand over the drawings to professionals for careful study, hoping to get some inspiration.

After Mr. Zhang left, Mr. Huang stayed in the machinery factory. In his words, he was in charge of the work.

Lao Xia went to the northwest, and now the machinery factory needs him to take charge.

Liu Huaimin naturally agreed with this. With the boss here, some things don't need to be reported by phone, and they can be solved directly in person, which improves the efficiency of work.

And just after Mr. Huang reported the news that the machinery factory had developed an eight-cylinder diesel engine, Mr. Zhang also passed the news to the 59 production factory in Lucheng.

Lucheng, 59-type production workshop.

The workshop director, Lao Yu, was worried about the 59-type semi-finished products on the production line.

And the reason for this worry is very simple, there is not enough material.

Without sufficient materials, the semi-finished products on the production line cannot be called Type 59, and the supply tasks required by the military cannot be completed, and they cannot explain.

They can ask the logistics to send resources here, but the logistics comrades are also worried.

Because many key parts are imported from the alliance.

Later, the other party cut off the supply, and they could only find a way out by themselves and let various domestic factories help to process parts.

However, the production technology of domestic factories is not as good as theirs.

"Alas!"

Looking at the workers who have nothing to do, the director can only sigh and let them come down to rest and wait for the parts to be shipped before installing them.

"Director, when will the materials for this engine be ready?"

Just as he told someone to rest, the technician Lao He came over and complained, "What's the matter with these two days of stopping and starting?"

A lot of people gradually gathered around him, and when they heard Lao He's complaints, they began to complain, "Yes, it's not just the engine, but also the transmission and gearbox. You only get a small amount every time, and if you make dozens of them, they will be gone." , It’s not enough for us to use.”

"Yes, how can we complete our mission if this continues?"

The complaints of several people soon became the talk of the entire workshop.

Director Lao Yu is also like this.

This has happened more and more frequently in the past two years. Last week, I worked for three days and took the remaining four days off.

The reason is naturally that the production components below are restricted, and the reason for the restriction is the weakness of basic industrial processing.

This weakness is not that it cannot be made, but more that it is not durable.

Nowadays, the products they produce must be strictly inspected for quality.

Even so, there are still many failed Type 59s that need to be returned to the factory for repairs.

Therefore, if we want to solve it, we can only build and develop from the foundation bit by bit.

Only by laying a solid foundation can we build a tall building.

This is no longer something their factory can decide.

"Everyone, take a rest."

Old Yu glanced at everyone, "What's going on in the country that you don't know yet?"

"Being able to provide us with this is something we have to squeeze out of our teeth. It's difficult for us, but it's even more difficult for our brothers at home."

Lao He and others stopped talking. They just grumbled and complained.

I have no resentment toward the comrades who provided the materials.

"Director, Director!"

While everyone was talking, a young man ran over quickly and nimbly avoided the machines in the workshop as he passed by them.

"What's the matter? You're running so fast."

Director Yu saw the visitor coming, it was Xiao Ma, the secretary of the factory director.

"Director, the factory director just received news from Sijiucheng that the machinery factory in Sijiucheng has produced an eight-cylinder diesel engine and wants you to come over."

"What? An eight-cylinder engine?"

"Yes, I heard the factory director say, something with 800 horsepower, I want you to go there quickly."

Old Yu suppressed his doubts and hurriedly walked to the factory director's office.

The pony behind him wanted to keep up, but he was being pulled by the people around him.

"Pony, what's going on?"

Lao He asked, and Xiao Ma quickly told the news he knew before leaving the workshop and going back to inquire about the news.

"Lao He, is what he said true?"

Lao He shook his head, "It feels like it's true. But it's a bit unbelievable."

The people around were silent for a moment, and suddenly someone said, "Yes, we have been producing here for so many years and have seen all kinds of engines, but an 800-horsepower engine is an eight-cylinder diesel engine. Why is it so unbelievable?"

"Yeah, our twelve-cylinder engine can't even reach 600 horsepower, but his eight-cylinder engine can?"

"I can't believe it."

There were a lot of discussions in the workshop, and a meeting was also going on in the factory director's office.

"This is the news from Mr. Zhang, it shouldn't be false."

The thin man sitting at the top had long, black hair, but his eyes were bloodshot.

Recently, due to production problems, I have stayed up all night and made many phone calls to communicate.

"Lao Yu, tell me."

"Director, you have to see this with your own eyes to be sure. Otherwise, I don't know."

Lao Yu said cautiously, feeling shocked at first hearing the news.

In his mind, or in the minds of everyone present, there will be a simple measure.

That is, can you, an eight-cylinder guy, be better than our twelve-cylinder guy?

It is this kind of mentality that makes it difficult for people here to believe it.

"What's your opinion?"

The factory director looked around and finally put it on the factory secretary, "Old Tan, please tell me your opinion."

The equally thin but short middle-aged man next to him nodded slowly, then looked at the crowd before speaking.

"I believe Mr. Zhang's information is accurate, and I also believe that domestic machinery factories are indeed capable of producing this kind of engine."

"Although, this horsepower is a bit amazing."

Everyone nodded.

"But, what's the use to us?"

"We can't replace the Type 59's mature production technology. That would be more gain than loss."

"but."

The secretary shouted loudly, and everyone around him was startled.

"The other party actually made such a good engine, but we have stagnated. What does this mean? It means that we are not very motivated and lack enthusiasm for work."

The secretary slapped the table, and everyone looked stern.

Many technicians involved in engine development lowered their heads.

Their factory not only produces engines, but also undertakes some of the research and development tasks of the third engine department.

And after so many years, every year we talk about research and development, but every year we say no.

Now a machinery factory suddenly appeared and it was successful.

Isn't this a slap in their face?

Fortunately, the engine made by the other party only has eight cylinders.

The factory director looked at everyone and said nothing.

After the meeting was dismissed, the factory director and secretary stopped Lao Yu and said, "This time the leader asked us to go to an individual organization to learn how to shoot the drawings."

"After discussing with Lao Han, I think it's more appropriate for you to go."

Director Yu nodded after hearing this, "Okay, no problem."

"Go to the Sijiucheng headquarters and see if there is anything we can learn from this drawing."

"Also, report our situation to the superiors and ask them to allocate more materials as soon as possible."

"Our production task cannot be delayed!"

After emphasizing it again, Lao Yu replied, "I understand. This time I will take a good look at how they designed it."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work!"
