Chapter 1210 Simultaneous Manufacturing
The two looked at each other after hearing this.
I felt a little strange. To put it bluntly, an armored vehicle is just a truck covered with leather.
So in their design framework, it is similar to a truck.
Who would have thought that Yang Xiaotao would actually say this, which really surprised them.
However, after the two of them saw the drawings drawn by Yang Xiaotao, their strangeness disappeared.
Even after thinking about something, the two of them felt that there was indeed something wrong with this framework.
The design framework given by Yang Xiaotao completely subverted their understanding.
The front design is no longer a straight up and down front, but a triangular front.
In other words, there is no sign of a car at all.
The two sides are not vertical, but also have a slight curvature.
Looking below, there are eight rows of sixteen tires, four more than their six rows of twelve.
"We are studying armored transport vehicles, not trucks used to pull freight people."
"These three design concepts are all good. Instead of choosing one and giving up the other two, it's better to soften these things."
"Why can't we have both speed and protection?"
"Just now I was discussing with the comrades in Quancheng about changing the truck to a six-wheel drive. What do you think of an eight-wheel drive?"
Yang Xiaotao smiled, but Dai Qinggang and the other two stared at the rough drawings and studied them carefully.
After a long time, the two of them got up and walked out, ready to go back and redesign.
"I didn't expect that Mr. Yang would understand the design of armored vehicles."
"Who says it isn't?"
Huang Han then sighed, "However, this design is really good!"
"Ahem, I think the main reason is that the engine is strong, so it can be driven."
"In hindsight, what did you do earlier?"
"Old Huang, you said this as if you knew it."
Two days later.
Machinery factory, in front of the office building.
"Brother Wang, Factory Director Liu."
"You are here in a group."
Downstairs in the office, Yang Xiaotao couldn't help but joked as he looked at Wang Dahai and Liu Dehui, followed by seven or eight car factory workers.
"Of course, we are big eaters this time."
Wang Dahai said with a smile, not embarrassed at all.
But Yang Xiaotao waved his hand, "No, our small bodies cannot withstand the heat of your wine jar!"
"Good boy, what if I become a wine vat?"
The two were chatting and laughing, and Yang Xiaotao changed the topic, "I heard that my sister-in-law has a niece?"
Wang Dahai was even more happy when he said this.
Finally Yang Xiaotao came to Liu Dehui.
"Director Yang, thank you!"
The two shook hands solemnly.
"You're welcome, this is the first step of the 10,000-kilometer long march, and we have to continue."
Liu Dehui nodded, "However, with such a good engine, we will definitely make a better truck."
"Yes, if you want to do it, do it the best!"
Several people laughed and then came to the conference room of the machinery factory.
Two days ago, after some changes, the workers at Quancheng Automobile Factory finally got Yang Xiaotao's approval.
Although most of the design ideas here were provided by Yang Xiaotao, they were the ones who actually implemented them.
At this time, the candidates from the R&D department who have been waiting here are already ready.
When Yang Xiaotao, Liu Dehui and others came in, Lang Gong, who was in charge of the explanation, immediately took out the design drawings that Yang Xiaotao had produced these days.
In the conference room, Yang Xiaotao and Liu Dehui were sitting below, looking at the director who was explaining in front.
A few people were chatting and laughing at first, but when the design drawings were posted, they immediately frowned.
Wang Dahai looked at the concept drawing, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt like it was a container?
And Liu Dehui's performance was even more obvious. If Wang Dahai hadn't stopped him, he would have stood up and cursed.
When Lang Gong saw that the performance of the three people was not as good as he and his colleagues had imagined, he was also shocked.
However, thinking that this was the hard work of these people for many days, and thinking that it was Yang Xiaotao's idea, they forced themselves to explain.
"Director, ladies and gentlemen, this is a super-heavy truck that we jointly developed with the R&D Department of the Machinery Factory."
The director decided to bring in the R&D department of the machinery factory to share the pressure. At this time, that was all he could do.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Liu Dehui calmed down and became serious.
"This truck is divided into two parts: the front part and the attachment part."
"The front of the vehicle, including the cab, weighs twelve tons in total, and the maximum load of the entire vehicle can reach 40 tons. The engine is powered by an 8V-65B eight-cylinder diesel engine provided by the machinery factory."
Hu Gong was explaining in front, and when he saw Yang Xiaotao, his encouragement made him feel at ease and he continued to explain.
"This is the general image we prepared."
At the end of the day, two design drawings were handed over to Liu Dehui and the others.
As for Yang Xiaotao, this image picture was obtained from him.
"It's so big, is it useful?"
Liu Dehui asked Lang Gong, who also looked uneasy and looked directly at Yang Xiaotao.
Several people turned their heads and looked over.
Seeing this, Yang Xiaotao explained, "I also participated in part of this design."
Everyone from the Quancheng Automobile Factory who was following the meeting rolled their eyes. What does it mean to be a part of it? You clearly designed it yourself, and we just brushed it off.
"We have already considered the issues you raised."
"I think that heavy trucks will become an important transportation force in the future. And now, our Optimus Prime can just fill the gap in heavy trucks in China."
"This is a good thing that benefits the country and the people."
After listening, Liu Dehui did not rush to express his opinion, but just nodded.
After all, this was designed by Yang Xiaotao, so he had to give him face.
Besides, what Yang Xiaotao said made sense.
The first in the country, this title is loud enough.
You know, the reason why Jiefang is famous all over the country is that it produces the first truck in the country, right?
They, Quancheng Automobile Factory, really want to win this heavyweight honor.
"Then, make this..."
"Optimus Prime!"
Liu Dehui was stunned, and then he didn't think much about it, "Make this Optimus Prime."
The meeting continued. Since the main theme was determined, the next step was to determine the production and manufacturing of the components.
After several people discussed the design drawings, Yang Xiaotao, Liu Dehui and Wang Dahai walked into the office.
"Where are Lao Yang and the others?"
Wang Dahai sat aside and lit a cigarette.
"Old Yang went to Yanzhou to preside over the construction of the steel plant."
"Old Liu went to the First Ministry of Machinery, Old Chen went to the railway station, and Old Wang also went to a branch factory."
"So, after counting, I am the only one left."
Putting the teacup in front of the two people, Lou Xiao'e in the room didn't know where to go, so he had to do it himself.
"Have you heard about it?"
"What?"
"Three-wheeled vehicles have been made in Shanghai!"
After Liu Dehui finished speaking, Yang Xiaotao's eyes fixed.
But Wang Dahai next to him laughed.
"This is interesting."
Then Wang Dahai held the teacup while smoking and laughing, "The purpose of their taking three-wheeled vehicles is self-evident, just to get a piece of the pie."
"What a pity, what a pity."
Liu Dehui kicked Wang Dahai's chair aside, "You can gloat over their misfortune."
"No, I'm telling the truth."
After speaking, Wang Dahai told the details.
It turned out that in the past few days, the news about the production of gasoline tricycles in Shanghai had spread.
After all, it was the first domestic gasoline engine, and the country also attached great importance to it.
Unfortunately, it is not enough to just pay attention. If you want to make a name for yourself abroad, you still need to have solid technology.
Then…
All the ten gasoline tricycles sent to the northwest for inspection were rejected.
The reason is simple. Compared with the Quantong tricycle, it is simply a world of difference.
For this reason, the businessmen and representatives specially found the local representative, Section Chief Wang.
The people in the Ministry of Commerce were very helpless and said a good word with him.
After receiving the information, the domestic government immediately stopped the idea of exporting Shanghai tricycles and turned to use them domestically.
It just filled the share gap left after the export of Quantong tricycles.
After this matter spread, Shanghai Automobile Factory lost face.
But the documents above were issued and the orders were received, so they could only bite their teeth and admit it.
"Who asked them to copy others' words?"
Wang Dahai complained a few words, and Yang Xiaotao didn't say anything after listening, but put small gasoline engines and motorcycles on the agenda in his heart.
It is impolite not to return the favor.
If you do it on the first day, don't blame me for doing it on the fifteenth.
After a moment of silence, Liu Dehui continued to speak.
"Now, it depends on whether our Optimus Prime can be a hit."
"Don't worry, Lao Liu, you will definitely fall in love with this car once it comes out."
Seeing Yang Xiaotao say this, the two of them had confidence.
In the following two days, Yang Xiaotao sat in the R&D department, solving problems if there were any, and explaining things that were not understood.
Lang Gong and his colleagues also explained the design concept clearly.
Yang Xiaotao also took Liu Dehui and his colleagues to the workshop to visit the production site of the eight-cylinder diesel engine, which made Wang Dahai and others exclaim.
Looking at other workshops in the machinery factory, they were also in full swing. The two understood that the current machinery factory was thriving.
After two days of discussion, the automobile factory and the machinery factory were considered to be "allied".
If everything goes well, the machinery factory will be responsible for providing the engine, and the automobile factory will be responsible for providing necessary help.
The two sides hit it off.
Of course, both sides also made the worst plan.
If this Optimus Prime is not popular, according to the cooperation between the two parties, Yang Xiaotao will have to produce a four-cylinder diesel engine, and accordingly, the Quancheng Automobile Factory will redesign the truck according to the new engine.
On the morning of the third day, Liu Dehui carefully put away the design drawings and kept them close to him.
Then he took the return train with his people.
They had to go back as soon as possible to make the "Optimus Prime" and let people see the real thing as soon as possible to see if it was as domineering as Yang Xiaotao said.
After Liu Dehui and others left, Dai Qinggang and others came to Yang Xiaotao's office again with the modified design drawings.
Yang Xiaotao read it carefully and it was similar to what he mentioned before.
The three of them also worked together.
Because there are shadows of the three parties on this car.
The overall structure of the car is different from that of ordinary trucks. The corners on the body and the thickness of the key parts are increased. In addition, there is a machine gun on the head.
There are also shooting holes on both sides of the car. Except for the lack of missiles, other designs are in line with the current trend.
Knowing that this was already agreed upon by the three parties, he stopped thinking about it and asked someone to find Pang Guo, and then went to the workshop to start manufacturing.
Unlike the Quancheng Automobile Factory, they came to seek cooperation.
The armored transport vehicle was the task of the machinery factory itself.
Dai Qinggang and his team were only here to help.
Soon, Pang Guo found Liu Daming, who was making the engine, and explained the situation carefully.
Liu Daming heard that it was Yang Xiaotao who personally gave the instructions, and he immediately perked up and started to prepare.
