Siheyuan: Craftsmen of a Great Country

Jiang Chen's words were a bit preachy.

Because he knows the history of blood and tears of flower growers' machine tools.

If he hadn't said this, the result would have been a blind pursuit of scale.

Because that's how it was in the original life, building factories crazily and pursuing the quantity of machine tool production.

From a few thousand to tens of thousands, the results seem to be gratifying.

In fact, the products of these machine tools without core technology are far inferior to similar products in the world.

When the spring breeze blows and the world's products flood into flower growers, it's over.

These factories, which now cost a lot of resources to build, have lost all competitiveness in an instant.

All that is waiting for them is to be merged and reorganized.

Or, go bankrupt directly.

We have no technology and no discontinuous machine tools, what should we do?

Buy it.

With this purchase, the hard-earned foreign exchange was spent, and what I bought back was filled with sadness and grievance.

You spend money to buy his products, but he still has to say: the machine tool cannot be moved or moved, and can only produce specified products, otherwise the machine tool will be turned into scrap metal.

Even if he directly acquires the German company, he will not be able to get the technology back.

Jiang Chen felt aggrieved and uncomfortable just thinking about it.

Therefore, even if Zhou Xinjian would be unhappy if he said it now, he still said it without hesitation.

It's better to make him angry than to go down the wrong path.

Now that he knows some of the detours he has taken before and the pits he has jumped over, he now tries to avoid stepping into them again.

Keep everyone on the right path.

He is also trying to adjust a little bit.

Whether it is the establishment of a training system, the introduction of standardized techniques and assembly lines, or the protection of patents and intellectual property rights, encouraging research and development.

Even in terms of food production and other aspects, he is doing his best to avoid making mistakes.

Sure enough, Zhou Xinjian's face looked a little ugly after hearing Jiang Chen's words.

Because this layout is the strategy above.

Under this strategy, the Ministry of Industry has initially approved the plan.

Now that Jiang Chen said this, he not only denied their plan, but even secretly pointed out that the Ministry of Industry was making mistakes.

If it were anyone else, Zhou Xinjian would have already seen off the guests.

But this guy is a cocky guy who will bully you, so he can still tolerate it.

Zhou Xinjian lit a cigarette and took a slow drag.

Jiang Chen took his cigarette case unceremoniously, handed one to Mr. Huang, took another one for himself, and lit it too.

His behavior didn't mean that he really wanted to smoke.

Instead, he hinted to Zhou Xinjian, "Look, I'm not polite at all in front of you. You and I are family."

After a while, Zhou Xinjian shook the ashes from his cigarette and said, "Perhaps, you have a point."

"But now our country is very short of machine tools, and we must produce them as soon as possible. I also know that the technology and research and development you mentioned are very important, but the demand for machine tools is imminent, and we don't have that much time to wait."

After all, he still doesn't want to change the original plan.

After all, this is what the Ministry of Industry has already discussed and approved at a meeting.

And he's supportive.

Now, if he is asked to overthrow all of this by himself, it is a bit suspicious of him changing his orders very quickly, and he cannot afford to lose his face.

Jiang Chen said: "Isn't there something ready-made in the Seed Industry Institute?"

"Precision machine tools?" Zhou Xinjian glanced at Mr. Huang and then at Jiang Chen:

"Huang Laodu said that it is a strategic resource."

Jiang Chen said: "It's a precision machine tool, but it's not the one with the highest accuracy."

"As I said just now, we are developing high-precision machine tools in the form of climbing stairs. Under this machine tool, there are four versions with different precisions."

"Although these versions are not as accurate as the final version, at least they are better than Sangang machine tools."

"We can divide these four versions according to demand. What kind of precision machine tools are there and how much demand there is, and the layout will be based on this quantity."

"Of course, the upper limit of the layout should not exceed the world level, so even if it is leaked, it actually doesn't matter."

"As the machine tools of the future world improve, we will release higher-precision machine tools and always ensure that we are consistent with the world in terms of accuracy."

Zhou Xinjian was silent for a long time again.

Then his tone became soothing: "Well, this is a way."

"But the problem is that accuracy is only one aspect of machine tools. Relying on this alone cannot ensure that our machine tools are at the same level as the world."

There's nothing wrong with that.

In fact, after the accuracy reaches a certain level, CNC machine tools are the key development direction.

Jiang Chen said: "Lao Gao Zhou has hit the nail on the head."

"But didn't I say before that we encourage private research and development? Believe me, with this kind of machine tool that is considered advanced in the world, they will definitely bring us huge surprises."

"In addition, we also have a research institute. The meaning of our existence is research and development."

"We are not afraid of Mr. Zhou's jokes. One of the goals of our Seed Engineering Institute is to redefine production."

Zhou Xinjian actually smiled: "Your goal is indeed a bit erratic."

"Isn't production just people plus machines? How can you redefine it?"

Jiang Chen pretended to have a profound smile: "Not necessarily."

Zhou Xinjian was stunned: "Not necessarily? Is it possible that you can still let the machine move there without letting people participate?"

Jiang Chen chuckled: "Yes, that's what I think. The machine will do its own production."

“Machines plus machines, or computers plus machines.”

Zhou Xinjian was shocked: "You mean, computers can really control machines for production?"

The current CNC machine tool technology is still in the development stage around the world.

Flower growers also have one and only one digital machine tool, and as for CNC, there is no such thing.

So he couldn't understand that a computer is also a machine, so how could this machine control the machine for production?

How to achieve it?

Is it possible that machines can really think?

The machine has no thinking, but it has a program.

Of course, Jiang Chen can't explain these things clearly now.

I can only nod: "Yes, not only can it be controlled, but it can also be more precise than humans, without making mistakes, with higher production capacity and more standard products."

Zhou Xinjian said: "So, you asked me for a computer just to study this computer-controlled machine for production?"

"But if you really research it, this will indeed be of epoch-making significance."

Jiang Chen said: "This is just one of the purposes."

"Compared to the role and value of computers in my real conception, and the impact it has, this is just a very, very small aspect."

Zhou Xinjian opened his eyes wide again: "This is only a very small aspect. What on earth do you want to use the computer for?"

"Is it possible that you want to use computers to control the world?"

Jiang Chen shook his head: "That's not true."

"However, although computers cannot control the world, they can connect the world and everything."
