Chapter 396 The tubes are all alive!
Not big, because the proportion of this weapon is actually not very big. Some countries do not even need this thing at all, such as the country with the "Shichibukai", which will be the safest country in the world in the future.
It’s not small, because Lao Maozi opened a small hole in the king’s throne in the Economic Aid Association.
"Oh, this is really bad news. It seems that for weapons, performance is everything." Comrade Minister said to himself.
This is natural. In war, there are not many opportunities for experimentation and mistakes. Therefore, among similar weapons, weapons with actual results are naturally more popular than those that have never been on the battlefield.
"Should we do something through diplomatic channels?" Linochka asked in a low voice.
“No, no, no, don’t do anything, my dear Linochka. You have to understand one thing, we can use the production capacity to produce other things and still make money. But a person who can Companions who share the pressure for us are more important to us.”
The minister is a sensible person. In fact, no matter which country there are, there are sensible people, but whether they can make a voice is another matter.
He can see that it is actually very difficult to fight against the Ocean Convention on his own. There is an emerging powerful country and a bunch of old colonial empires on the opposite side, but on our side, only our own country is considered powerful, and the others do not have the core capabilities to compete with the opposite side.
If there are any, the only ones are the comrades in the south. They have all the necessary conditions, strategic depth, resource endowment, population, better and better education, the will to fight, the ability to mobilize, and upward Determination, etc. What they lack is only time. After all, it has only been 10 years since they fought bloody battles out of the abyss.
Personally speaking, the minister is willing to see a country that can share some of the pressure on his motherland. Production capacity is also a resource. With the limited capabilities of his own country, he cannot afford to supply such a huge undertaking, regardless of this. Is the cause really for liberating the poor brothers, or is it for fighting for world hegemony?
This has nothing to do with money. Making money is not the most important thing, having partners is.
Of course, this is just his idea. There is only so much he can do. The decay of an empire cannot be reversed by one or two people.

In a certain chemical research institute, Mr. Xiang also saw the first victory of the anti-ship missile. He, like everyone else, was equally delighted.
He looked at the light green round plastic tubes in the laboratory and said to himself: "That's a new weapon. This is also a new weapon. We have to work harder. We can't delay Director Gao's work. It would be bad if he falls too far behind other comrades.”
To this day, President Xiang still doesn’t know that Gao Zhendong has been promoted to chief engineer. Gao Zhendong can’t tell him himself, as that would be a bit of a slut. Melon.
But his worries were unnecessary. He didn't know that Gao Zhendong was also involved in the anti-ship missile, and it was very important.
This batch of bobbins was made by him by improving some existing processes and processes. However, after testing, the situation was still not optimistic and the yield rate still did not improve much. It seems that twin-screw extrusion still depends on the The situation on the plastic machine side.
He called his assistant and asked his assistant to send the selected qualified products to the Changjian Machinery Factory. Although the yield rate was very low, there were still some, which could at least support the Changjian. The factory first conducts formal type testing.
Steel tubes can no longer be used in formal type tests. Except for a few test subjects, all test rocket launchers must be in complete configuration.
Even if we refer to the 89-tube finalization test number of more than 500 rounds, the production of packaging launch tubes here can still be affordable for the time being. The only problem is that mass production is not possible.
After arranging things, he turned around and picked up the phone and called the extruder.
As soon as the other party picked up the phone and heard that it was Mr. Xiang, he immediately said Cao Cao, Cao Cao has arrived.
"Haha, Lao Xiang, I was just saying to call you, and you called me. You must have put a finger in my place to repay God."
Mr. Xiang smiled and said: "That's because I beat him too early rather than skillfully. How is the situation of the extruder now?"
Listening to the other person's mood, plus he really wants to call himself. The situation should be making good progress?
“Well, I was about to call you to talk about this. We spent a lot of effort to modify a twin-screw extruder and did a batch of tests on the product you want to make. , the situation is very good.”
This made Mr. Xiang overjoyed: “All the problems have been solved?”
“Everything has changed a lot. This twin-screw is really good. It used to be a single screw. The problems with the screw have basically been solved, but we were a little hasty and the design was not very suitable. There is still room for improvement.”
What the other party said was as if he had not said it, and the information that Mr. Xiang wanted to know most was not said at all.
“Don’t just tell me these lies, what is the yield rate?”
“The yield rate is 47%, which is not too high, but it’s okay if you use it for a while. Yes, we will continue to improve here.”
The ideal yield rate should be above 85%.
The figure of 47% is unacceptable for civilian products and is not enough to compensate, but for military products, it is almost enough.
When Mr. Xiang heard this, he was overjoyed. He originally thought that the yield rate had reached more than double digits, which completely verified the principle. However, there was still room for improvement and it needed to be improved before it could be used.
Unexpectedly, it is basically ready for mass production. In this way, Director Gao's great trust, this is considered completed, and it finally does not hinder others too much. "That's great, I will continue to change yours. Now give me this set first, and help me train the trainers by the way."
The other person was also very happy: "Okay, no problem By the way, remember to report the good news to the comrade who came up with the idea. Someone else has a hand in this project.” Don't worry until now, otherwise it would be a joke if an empty cannon was fired.
It is said that the equipment was given to them, but in fact it was just a transfer of ownership of the use rights. The equipment was still in the laboratory of the institute and did not need to be disassembled and reassembled. This undoubtedly greatly accelerated the speed of testing to the general manager.
He tried making three batches at the fastest speed, 45%, 46%, and 48%! It's indeed around 47%.
It’s done! He immediately called Gao Zhendong.
Gao Zhendong heard that Mr. Xiang was on the opposite side, and from his excited tone, he guessed that there should be good news.
What Mr. Xiang said next was exactly what he expected.
"Director Gao, good news! We have trial-produced an extruder using the twin-screw principle you provided, and the effect is very good. Although there is still room for improvement, after many batches of tests, the current yield has reached 45%. That’s all! In order to solve the problem of high-temperature corrosion, the urea steel you made is also used.”
Gao Zhendong didn’t expect that urea steel has such uses. It seems that good steel really needs to be in the hands of people who know the goods. , to use the blade.
"Great! It's all ready now!" This is the only thing missing from the disposable rocket launcher. Without it, even if it is finalized, it will not be of practical significance and cannot be fought.
"Director Gao, how do you arrange this machine at your place?" This machine definitely cannot be placed here in the institute to produce bobbins. The transportation distance is too long. Save some money and post it again. It's included in the shipping fee.
Gao Zhendong thought for a while and made a request: "Old rules, you can send it directly to the Long Sword Factory. By the way, Mr. Xiang, I also want you to support a few people and teach them how to produce and equip them. How to use.”
For people in the Long Sword Factory, it is not impossible to learn with instructions and craft materials, but in terms of time and efficiency, it may be a bit ugly.
Mr. Xiang smiled and said: "Don't worry, Director Gao, I will lead the team there myself! If you can't teach me, I won't leave."
Gao Zhendong thanked him repeatedly. For him, this is a network of connections. The correct usage.
Mr. Xiang smiled and said: "By the way, there is one more thing. The idea of the twin-screw extruder you mentioned, our comrades who are engaged in technology and production equipment have applied for a project, and you are in it. Having played such an important role, they took the liberty to add you as well. Considering your special situation, they only wrote "outsourcing expert", but now the acceptance conditions have basically been met, and you have to report your real name. , is it convenient for you?"
Gao Zhendong thought for a while: "It's not a big problem, just report it and lean on the urea steel."
The extruder is a relatively general processing machine and has something to do with metallurgy. As an engineer of the third steel rolling mill, Gao Zhendong has no problem showing a small face in it.
Coupled with the existence of urea steel, it becomes even more logical.
This is also more confusing. Even if the enemy really has the ability to see Gao Zhendong's string of results, who in a normal person has the energy to complete so many things? It is obviously a smoke bomb, or it is intentional. The God who created it.
Besides, there aren’t that many traitors these days.
Mr. Xiang happily said hello, this matter is considered complete.
The extruder received a call from Mr. Xiang and added Gao Zhendong’s name to the project acceptance materials.
Hmm, "Gao Zhendong"? This name seems a bit familiar, but the name "Zhendong" is very common in this era, maybe it's the same name.
The Ministry of Chemical Industry received the acceptance materials for the project, and the materials quickly went to the department leaders. This year's complete innovations in production equipment such as twin-screw extruders have shocked this level. That’s perfectly normal for a leader.
In a few decades, a result of this level will probably be a patent. People in the county science and technology bureau may be interested, but no matter how high it is, it will be gone.
The only connection with some senior leaders is probably the printed version of the patent certificate signed by the national patent director.
The leader of the Department of Chemical Industry looked at the words "Gao Zhendong" on the material and remembered the young man he had met when the urea steel was made.
At that time, I also asked the other party to cooperate with the Ministry of Chemical Industry. The other party was modest and would learn more from the comrades in the ministry.
Now it seems that if the other party learns, he or she will not necessarily learn, but teaching something is really teaching.
