Chapter 264 The uncles decided to go south
“No problem, once you say something, it’s hard to follow up!”
Liang Yan still smiled and stretched out her hand. Zhu Xuefeng was surprised, but he remained honest. I pulled the hook, and this seemed to be a bit of a drama.
Looking at the time, it was almost the time agreed with Li Zhenhua. Zhu Xuefeng directly picked up the jeep and agreed to send his eldest brother to the car. Uncle Kong was not free at work, and his godmother did not want to see the difference. The scene is just right for the two brothers to chat again.
"Fourth, I have decided. I have helped with this matter. I will make preparations when I get back, just as we have agreed..."
"Brother, take this. Let them have more money, and it will be easier to do some things."
Zhu Xuefeng took out a small box and handed it to Li Zhenhua. Li Zhenhua couldn't help but open it and take a look. His eyes were dazzled.
"Fourth, these cost two to three thousand, they come legally. I don't need any messy money."
Zhu Xuefeng said with a smile while driving.
"Brother, don't worry. There is absolutely no problem with my background. Didn't you also listen to what your godmother said? In the past six months, I have received thousands of bonuses from various awards."
"Fourth brother, you are a capable person. When the time comes, you have to be nice to my old brothers..."
...
"You two make your own arrangements, watch movies, visit temple fairs, and go shopping in department stores Whether you go to the courtyard to play with them, or to find classmates or study, I don’t care. I’ll come back at night.”
“This is for you guys. If you play in the yard, be careful not to damage other people’s windows. It’s broken.”
Took out a black thing, it’s a rubber ball, it’s not cheap, it costs 60 cents each, let the younger siblings and other children play with it, there’s nothing to play with now, but I’m actually planning on it. I bought two pairs of hoops and forgot to make hooks. I will go to the factory in a few days to find some scrap wire and make two.
The younger brother and sister went to play with the black ball in the yard. After a while, there was a surging movement. Sure enough, even the three from the opposite door came out, chasing each other in the yard, and kicked them from time to time. , but be sure not to break the glass by kicking it.
"Be careful, don't damage the glass."
"Brother Feng, we will pay attention."
Yan Laoer responded loudly and explained, After adding water to the car, Zhu Xuefeng went straight to the steel rolling mill. It was really troublesome to add water. After a while, he told the leader that he would prepare the antifreeze himself. It was not difficult.
Just a little bit of purified water, ethylene glycol, preservatives, etc. This motorcycle is now designed to be water-cooled and needs to be used. We can't export it all and let people pour and drain it.
I drove the car directly to the driver's class. All the drivers were at work, but it was only the third year of junior high school and there was really no work. Most of them were smoking and chatting outside the garage, and only a few were inspecting the vehicles inside.
"Master Liu, Happy New Year, I wish you a happy New Year."
"Hey, it's only the third day of the Lunar New Year and you're here, why are you in a hurry? I didn't tell you last time ….”
Zhu Xuefeng smiled and handed over a cigarette, stuffed two more boxes into it, and lit them for Master Liu.
“I just happened to have something to come to the factory today, so I sent it here, otherwise I would have to make a special trip in the future, don’t you think so.”
The two of them were smoking cigarettes and chatting. After a while, I said goodbye and had to report to the leader. The leader had given me so much care, so it would be inappropriate not to take the initiative.
"Director Yang, Happy New Year. I'm here to report. May I ask if you have any work..."
Director Yang is opening the door to relax. He must have just opened a door in the office. After a small gathering, Zhu Xuefeng knocked on the door and spoke directly, but was interrupted after just a few words.
"Xiao Zhu, you came just in time. I was hesitant to find someone to treat you. I don't want to disturb you during the New Year. You, this is delivered to your door. Come on, let's go to the secretary's office. Let’s chat.”
“Director, this isn’t appropriate for you. I’m here to say New Year’s greetings and check in, and I don’t even let you finish my words before I have to arrange tasks.”
< br>
As he said that, he deliberately glanced at Hua Zi, who was thrown on the table by Director Yang. Zhu Xuefeng respected these two leaders very much. He dared to take responsibility and had to find opportunities to build some relationships.
Giving gifts is not appropriate. It can only bring you closer to each other in life. It is best to have a sense of intimacy, so that you will be more likely to return to the rolling mill in the future.
Director Yang understood and patted Zhu Xuefeng on the shoulder.
"You kid, come on, come on, aren't they just a few packs of cigarettes? They really make you think about me."
As he said that, he turned back to the cabinet and took out a strip of Chinese cigarettes. Son, threw it over.
"Here, give us more ideas. I'll take care of how much you want to smoke."
Knowing that Zhu Xuefeng didn't smoke much, Director Yang deliberately made him cough.
Zhu Xuefeng opened the package, took two boxes, threw the others on the coffee table, held up two packs of cigarettes, and smiled at Director Yang.
"I won't take more. These two bags are enough for ten days and a half. If they are gone, I will come again."
Seeing that Zhu Xuefeng has a solid basis for his advance and retreat, he is not greedy, so he still keeps some I can't find my own excuse anymore. This guy is a genius. How did he come up with so many tricks at such a young age?
"Okay, I'll keep it all for you. You can go now."
"We have to wait a while. Director, there is something I want to say. I'm really embarrassed to say it, but I can't help it. The neighbor came to the door. I Just give me a message, it depends on the factory to make arrangements."
Director Yang was quite curious and sat down again.
"You kid really never said anything, let me see what happened. As long as it doesn't violate the principles and there are no problems, I will help you."
It turned out to be three Regarding the eldest son's promotion to a regular job, the third uncle knew that according to the rules during the Chinese New Year this year, Lao Zhu's family would not receive anyone. Last night, he waited for Zhu Xuefeng in the yard, then invited him into his home and told Yan Jiecheng that he wanted to become a regular employee. After hearing this, Director Yang looked relaxed and didn't take it seriously.
"That's it. It's really hard for you to explain it. How big of a deal is it? It's not according to the regulations and it should be corrected. Okay, don't worry about this. I I’ll help you keep an eye on it. Let’s go find the secretary this time. Let’s go.”
…
In the secretary’s office, the three of them were sitting in front of the coffee table with the door closed, drinking tea. Smoking.
“Leader, I didn’t expect it to progress so fast now. It’s all been renovated. What I didn’t say is that the Chinese New Year is not so important. I promise the two leaders that I will follow the production of the first batch of prototypes. .”
It turns out that with just such a little effort, the rolling mill strictly implemented the last resolution and solved the upgrading and renovation of the casting equipment in a short period of time. Now it is just waiting for the experiment. If the experiment is successful, the casting of the new engine will start. The speed is really amazing. , The foundation of a large factory is really not something to boast about. As long as all kinds of talents are used well, the efficiency is really high.
"There is one more thing that we are not sure about. We would like to ask your thoughts."
The secretary is a little anxious. It seems that this matter has been bothering him for several days.
The secretary is also thoughtful. Since he mentioned participating in the Canton Fair in April, he was more thoughtful and asked around. But the news made him very depressed. Foreign exchange is not so easy to earn.
FAW reported that their latest truck participated in the conference last year, but only five were sold. The black brothers bought it. This motorcycle is not good. If they can only sell a few, what a big fanfare. After a long time, it became a joke.
Acquaintances in the Key Commercial Department provided information that Xiaoli's light motorcycles were advertised in the United States, but only two hundred units were sold in a year.
After listening to the secretary’s troubles, Zhu Xuefeng felt much relieved. This is the advantage of the prophet. He only sold 200 vehicles last year. Who would have thought that sales would start this year and then take off directly. In one year, It accounts for 80% of the motorcycle market share in the United States. It is so fantasy that no one would believe it.
"Secretary, there are a few points that need to be analyzed. First of all, the technology of this automobile's trucks is not leading in the world, so it will only be in the third world. Because the price is lower, the third world is better than We are even poorer, so of course we can’t buy a few.”
“Secondly, the purchase of large trucks is mainly a government action, but our small pedals and large pedals are aimed at personal consumption, and these buying groups are different. The explosion in the country shows that the people need this thing, and there are many people who are richer than us."
"As for what you said, only 200 units were sold in the United States a year, this is another new one. The concept is that the motorcycle market in the United States is large and mature, and they are all large-displacement. A new type of small-displacement motorcycle has just entered the market. Of course, it will be affected by everyone's habits, but this is temporary. Everyone has found that small ones are better than larger ones. This habit has changed if it applies to many times. I conclude that there will be a big change this year.”
"Besides, we have not established diplomatic relations with the United States, so we cannot sell directly to them. My suggestion is this: conquer Southeast Asia first, and then expand to other places. Then we will have to think of ways to see if we can use the products produced in Xiangjiang. In name, there is a chance..."
The two leaders pondered for a while and nodded. This is a good idea. They can walk in several steps. Now they want to go directly to Lao Mei’s territory and small life. Competition, the time has not come yet, just like revolution, it makes sense to surround the city from the countryside, but there is something wrong with surrounding the city from the countryside!
"This matter still needs to be negotiated with the Ministry of Foreign Trade. This needs to be coordinated by the superior leaders. As for the antifreeze you mentioned, if this is really done, it will be a good thing. I can't stand it. I have to add water and put water in every time.”
“Okay, okay, you guys solved this problem as soon as you came here. Just such a bad thing caused me not to have a good year, and I didn’t even go to the first grade of junior high school. , I thought about it all day at home..."
Seeing that the two leaders were in a good mood, Zhu Xuefeng asked another question.
"Leader, there is one more thing we need to hurry up. News from Xiaozhi. The speed of the small-displacement motorcycle they use for competition has exceeded 18,000 rpm. Our new material is now set to not exceed 18,000 rpm. In case, the gap is relatively large..."
"I guess they used a lot of aluminum, otherwise, the heat dissipation would not be solved. Didn't the ministry report that last year's aluminum production was huge? To make a leap, I think this aluminum alloy engine has to be launched, otherwise it will fall behind..."
The two understood that there had been a breakthrough in Xiaoli technology, and the ductile iron engine alone had an advantage. It won't last long. When aluminum alloy engines start to become popular in the early days, the technical advantages will be...
“The ductile iron that has taken so much effort to achieve some results was in vain?”
Director Yang was very unwilling to take such a big risk and spend so much manpower. , material resources, financial resources, not a single car has come out yet, and the materials have to be replaced again. Is there any mistake? If I didn't absolutely believe that Zhu Xuefeng's butt would not sit crooked, I would have suspected that this kid was here to cause sabotage.
"Director, don't worry, listen to me clearly."
In fact, aluminum alloy engines cannot be made of aluminum. Ductile iron still has its irreplaceable advantages. What needs to be tested now are the cylinder block, piston, How to properly match the cylinder head, cylinder and other parts.
As for the joint between the piston and the cylinder, of course it is better to use ductile iron. If they were made of aluminum alloy, it would not be able to move at all. The friction between the aluminum alloys is huge, and it can bite after a few times of friction. .
Zhu Xuefeng knew the idea. The problem of the cylinder head was not really solved until the 1980s. In his small days, he should only have made some progress on the cylinder block or cylinder, which is still far away.
As for ductile iron, of course we need to study it. Future cars, especially high-power ones, will definitely be dominated by ductile iron. The strength of aluminum alloy is not enough. Not to mention the high cost of using high-grade carbon steel, there are not so many Equipment and machine tools cannot handle this processing by hand. Besides, ductile iron has a wide range of applications.
The two leaders nodded, recognizing Zhu Xuefeng's explanation and analysis.
"Old Chen, why are you so busy at the end of the year? Although according to Xiao Zhu, there is still a lot of room for the research results of ductile iron, I can report it now so that I can Let's take a look. As for where it can be used, that's their business. Our factory has another scientific research result."
"Yes, Lao Yang, what you said makes sense. We do. There is no need to wait for the final results. The current ductile iron is already much stronger than primary carbon steel. This can save the country a lot of steel. If you report it early, the country will benefit early. "
The factory director took a look. Secretary Chen threw another round of cigarettes. Secretary Chen was in a good mood now and lit it again. Zhu Xuefeng took a sip of tea and smoked it too.
Being able to smoke with the leader behind closed doors is an honor that no one in the steel rolling mill would want. This guy just took two boxes and was waiting for the leader to smoke. No one else.
"Xiao Zhu, the leader came to inspect our factory years ago. He saw that our factory's motorcycle project was good, and made a request to the factory. We also want to hear your opinion."
Zhu Xuefeng didn't know that the leader Whatever request I made, there were so many things going on in this steel rolling mill, and I didn’t have the skills to help with anything, so I had to say it tactfully.
"Boss, you are so flattering to me. I am just a student who has been studying for half a year. I only have this little stuff and it will be gone after I pour it out. I am a layman with other things. Can you help me?" I’m so busy, I don’t even know what I’m doing.”
Director Yang is somewhat confident.
“Well, you should be able to make some suggestions. We originally wanted to wait until the new research team is established before we can study it, but now it seems that it is too late. This person will not be in place for a while, and we will have to worry about it. Please help me think of a solution first.”
I heard it was either related to the car or the engine. This can be discussed, and Zhu Xuefeng did not refuse.
“You tell me first, and I will do my best.”
It turns out that it is a request from superiors to strive for some breakthroughs in supporting agricultural production, which means to produce suitable machinery or vehicles for farmers. .
