Chapter 757: Expanding Production Capacity for the J-11
Ding Gaoheng came here today not specifically to merge Torch Group into Aviation Power.
It was just that Chang Haonan accidentally mentioned that he wanted to run in school, Torch Group and Aviation Power, so he mentioned it.
"Director Ding, actually before you came just now, I had planned to go to the Science and Technology Commission to find you."
After some pleasantries, Chang Haonan took the initiative to switch to the topic.
"Oh?"
Ding Gaoheng suddenly became interested:
"Is there something you want to report to me again?"
"It's really not a report this time."
Chang Haonan stood up as he spoke, picked up the document from his desk and handed it to Ding Gaoheng:
"It's the friendship plan, and the matter of the Varyag."
"The message from Wu Yifan in the morning said that he persuaded Valery Vasilyevich Babich, It was the chief designer of the Varyag and the Ulyanovsk factory who mobilized a large number of employees of the former Black Sea Shipyard who had lost their jobs.”
Originally, I bowed my head. Ding Gaoheng, who was flipping through the pages, immediately raised his head, his eyes flashing with excitement:
"This is a great thing. Now is a critical stage for the domestic shipbuilding industry to increase its production capacity. These old experts have If technicians can go to China, it will be very helpful to improve our process technology.”
“Last year, the Navy and Lianhai Shipyard sent a group of military representatives and technical experts to inspect the St. Petersburg Northern Shipyard. , I found that the craftsmanship and quality of those old Soviet-era ships, even if they have been in the water for nearly ten years, are much better than those newly built in the past two years. The only difference lies in these old craftsmen! ”
Chang Haonan had heard of what Ding Gaoheng said in his previous life.
Mainly reflected in the four modern-class destroyers bought back.
The quality of the 136 and 137 ships that were continued to be built was far better than the 138 and 139 ships that were later built.
Of course, except for high-level experts like Babbage, it is impossible for most people to directly participate in core naval projects such as aircraft carriers.
But the construction of other main battleships, including civilian ships, also has room for them to use their remaining energy.
Although China is already the world's third largest shipbuilding country in terms of shipbuilding tonnage, at the turn of the century, "big but not strong" is definitely not a casual statement.
Most of the high value-added orders are still in the hands of Europe, Japan and South Korea.
“Lao Wu also mentioned this in the report.”
Chang Haonan replied:
“So I also considered, if this batch meets the The number of people required is indeed large enough. On the basis of the 1,000 places in the first phase of the Friendship Plan, we will expand it as appropriate to accommodate this group of precious technical personnel.”
"However, because there were so many people this time, they still have some concerns about the conditions we gave."
"You mean... there are still some dissatisfactions?"
Ding Gaoheng put the document on the coffee table:
"Objectively speaking, even compared with the Soviet Union in the late 1980s, our country's current material and cultural level is indeed lacking to a certain extent, but..."< br>
As a result, just halfway through his words, Chang Haonan waved his hand quickly:
"No, no...it's not so much that the conditions are not good enough, I think the conditions are a little too good."
"Lao Wu's place is just a small company engaged in import and export trade after all, people will inevitably feel that It’s not reliable enough. As you know, these old workers have been badly screwed by private companies in the years since the Soviet Union collapsed. It’s normal to be resistant to them.”
Hearing this explanation, Ding Gaoheng was immediately happy:
“This is easy to handle. Although it is not convenient for our officials to come forward directly, we can ask comrades in the shipbuilding industry system to print some Chinese and Russian bilingual brochures, and attach the community we have prepared. , and photos of factories.”
“Our country is lacking everything now, but there is no shortage of old factories similar to Soviet factories. They are everywhere...”
Although Ding Gaoheng has not personally been to the CIS countries, it is not difficult to guess the mentality of employees there.
After nearly ten years of hard life, it is impossible to say that I have no idea when I first see this familiar atmosphere and environment.
If you give me some encouragement at this time, many things will fall into place.
At this time, there were not as many scams as there were later. In other words, although there were, they were not well known.
So when it comes to vigilance, it’s really just that.
With a decent brochure and photos, it is very persuasive.
"This is feasible." Chang Haonan also nodded:
"Then I will let Old Wu stabilize the other side first, don't act too hastily, wait until we can Send the promotional materials and then take action.”
After this problem is solved, there is nothing to say about the second thing.
Both Xu Pingzeng and Wu Yifan had already agreed. They said it was an application, but in fact it was just a notification.
Moreover, from Chang Haonan's perspective, the former's concerns are very reasonable.
In the original timeline, when the Varyag was being towed back to China, it encountered several situations where foreign personnel tried to illegally force board the ship, and even succeeded.
It’s just that the Varyag bought back in the previous life really only had a hull, and there was really nothing on it that could be further damaged, so it didn’t suffer any actual damage, but it was just a bit embarrassing.
But now Xu Ping has saved a lot of key equipment and data, which are currently on the ship. If it is captured or destroyed, it will be a big loss.
As for disassembly, handover and transshipment, it takes about 1-2 months...
For a long-term industry like shipbuilding, which is often counted in years, it is obviously not critical.
......
Originally, according to Chang Haonan's idea, since the Varyag's return to China will be slightly delayed, there shouldn't be much going on before the National Day.
However, plans cannot keep up with changes.
At the end of August, as the new semester of colleges and universities began, Chang Haonan's work focus gradually shifted from business management back to the laboratory.
Yao Mengna also completed the first phase of the production capacity ramp-up task at Factory 112, increasing the output of the J-11 by about one-third.
According to the previous agreement, Chang Haonan needed to prepare a new topic for her.
However, this time, Yao Mengna came back with her own questions.
"Professor Chang, I found a problem."
Yao Mengna, who had just taken off her hat and put on a lab coat, sat on the chair opposite Chang Haonan's desk.
“What’s the problem?”
Chang Haonan raised his head.
“I found that I had gone into a misunderstanding.”
Yao Mengna frowned slightly, obviously troubled by something:
“I always thought that the efficiency of the No. 11 pulsating production line did not meet the expected targets because I failed to control the working hours distribution coefficient of each link.”
“But later I discovered that the problem actually lies in the entire The amount of data in the final assembly process, especially the quality inspection process after each link, is too large, and the key data output by different inspection links are different. As a result, this step cannot be solved with an automated system. Although it is entered into the computer, in the end it still relies on manual labor. Check..."
Chang Haonan was not in a hurry, but listened to Yao Mengna's slightly confusing explanation while sorting out what the other party wanted to express in his mind.
To put it simply, although a large number of sensors are added to the production line, the data returned by the sensors is too complex and cannot be easily analyzed directly.
In particular, issues such as deformation, flatness, dimensional fit, missing rivets, and re-riveting during the riveting process generate high-dimensional data.
For example, missing rivets will leave a hole in the position of the rivet hole. For humans, it is easy to take a look, but for automated equipment, it is difficult to identify.
In the end, it was just a matter of workers going to the work station for inspection, instead of taking photos, and then workers checking the photos.
On the contrary, it was a waste of time.
"So, I think...only by using computers to replace people to complete this process can the theoretical potential of the pulsating production line be fully unleashed!"
Yao Mengna took a sip of water and finally concluded.
