Siheyuan: Heavy Industry Revitalizes the Country

“These details are well optimized.

However, do you feel that in many places, it is actually completely unnecessary?

For example, the power steering has a complex structure and requires additional costs.”

Professor Xu took the design drawing drawn by Fang Xiang and studied it carefully for a long time.

Nodding and shaking his head.

“There is still a blank in the power steering system for domestic vehicles at present.

When production starts, the cost is bound to be high.

However, as the production quantity increases, the cost will decrease and eventually become almost negligible.

If the professor feels it is not necessary for the time being, he can cancel it first."

Fang Xiang finally understood what the professor meant.

The country’s resources are scarce and its technical capabilities are insufficient.

More importantly, it doesn’t mean you can’t drive without power steering.

You know, those who can drive nowadays are all very strong.

“Well, in the project you optimized this time.

Many of them are geared towards comfort and control.

There is not much improvement in the rigid requirements of the troops.

I don't think they will necessarily adopt it.

At most I'll make it and give it a try.

I’m afraid it’s difficult to promote and apply it on a large scale, and it’s too early.”

The professor read it again and drew his conclusion.

“It’s okay, I’m just expressing some of my thoughts.

It's just drawn on the drawing. It's their choice whether to use it or not.

If it is not used, it can be used as a technical reserve.”

Fang Xiang nodded, thinking that what the professor said made sense.

It seems that I am still too idealistic and I need to consider the issues more comprehensively in the future.

“Well, there’s nothing to complain about your skills now.

What's more, we need to get in touch with people and things, as well as higher and deeper things.

By the way, you can drive, who did you learn from?"

Professor Xu’s views on other people’s thoughts went straight to the point and hit the nail on the head.

But then the topic turned to driving, which caught me off guard.

“I read about it in a book, and then I tried it myself.”

Fang Xiang scratched his head.

I was itching to do it so I just did it, but I didn't expect it would be discovered.

But people forget that in this day and age, being able to drive is also a technical talent.

A driver assistant can earn 33 yuan, and a trainee driver can earn 38 yuan.

The monthly salary for a level 4 bus driver is 50 yuan.

"How about a car? I can get you a driver's license."

Professor Xu had no doubts, he could only sigh, this is a genius.

Just by reading the book, you can learn to drive. You can't deny it.

"Can I?"

Fang Xiang was a little surprised. Nowadays, cars are definitely national property.

Individuals are not allowed to own a car; all cars are registered under public institutions.

“Others can’t do it, but you have no problem.

Moreover, the General Armament Department and the First Ministry of Machine Building will be happy to provide you with a car.

This way, it will be much more convenient to run back and forth in the future."

Professor Xu smiled. This kid will probably be very busy in the future.

“Isn’t this price a bit too high?”

Fang Xiang immediately understood what Professor Xu meant.

Cars are not given for free, you need to pay a price.

If you take someone else's car, you must do things for them!

"You kid! You took advantage of others.

You still don’t want to work for others? How can you be like this?”

Professor Xu was so angry that he laughed and kept pointing his finger at Fang Xiang.

“If you’re sure you want it, I’ll arrange these drawings and build a few prototypes.

I will arrange one for you when the time comes. If you don’t want it, I won’t arrange it for you.

This blueprint will be sent directly to the General Armament Department, the First Machinery Department and the Fifth Machinery Department, and they will decide for themselves.”

After Professor Xu finished speaking, he opened the drawer and looked for something.

"want!"

Fang Xiang nodded vigorously, this was obviously a benefit for him.

To take a step back, isn't this also done for the country?

Why are you so petty?

"Okay, then you just wait for the news.

This is the second-class individual merit that the General Armament Department applied for you.

I originally invited you to participate on May Day.

But I rejected it for you because I was worried that someone would cause trouble.

Please understand. "

Professor Xu handed the brown paper bag he found to Fang Xiang.

"Oh, I can't trust others, but how can I not trust you, Professor?"

Fang Xiang quickly took it and smiled.

“Don’t talk to me about this.

I have already greeted Professor Li from the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics.

Do you want to take classes first, or find a project to follow?"

Professor Xu picked up the teacup, took a sip, and talked about something else.

"I would like to hear your opinion, Professor."

Fang Xiang thought for a moment but did not make a decision.

"Find a project to follow, you have a solid foundation in mechanics.

Judging from the domestic situation, there are few people who are better than you in engine and vehicle design.

If I go to the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics, I think I will learn faster than others.

You will learn faster if you learn while watching.

Professor Li is also in the Academy of Sciences. Like me, he is just a figurehead here and is a very strict person.

But we cannot be careless, as the aerospace industry consumes a huge amount of resources.

Often, a small mistake will result in a huge loss of a country's resources and property.

So, if you go there, try to see and learn as much as possible.

Less talk, less action. Got it?

I'll call you later and you can report there next Monday.

Finally, you can get your diploma from the Department of Mechanical Manufacturing at any time.

But I think you probably want to get a diploma from the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics.

Then I can’t help you, you have to work hard on your own.”

After Professor Xu finished his instructions, he waved his hand.

Fang Xiang responded, bowed to Professor Xu, and left.

After leaving the office, I couldn't help but sigh.

Professor Xu is really good to me.

Even if he is your own father, I am afraid he can only do this much.

Unwrap the brown paper bag.

Just like the previous one, a golden certificate of second-class individual merit.

Two thick envelopes.

One is money. This time he gave a full four hundred yuan.

The other one was full of coupons, of various kinds, about forty in total.

Fang Xiang took inventory and deducted the expenses.

The money in the space now has exceeded the 4000 yuan mark, and is now over 4100 yuan.

There are still more than a hundred coupons left.

In a short period of time, unless there are unexpected events, it is basically impossible to spend all the money.

I didn’t expect that after traveling through time and space, I would have saved so much in less than a year.

Seeing that there was no one around, he threw the brown paper bag into the space.

Although Professor Xu had agreed to let me attend aerospace classes before.

But I just attended the class and wasted time.

Now I have found a mentor for myself.

Should I also place my focus there in the future?

Brother Cao has the engines of the Dongfanghong tractor and the Jiefang truck.

It has been several months since the optimization.

If I were to push forward to the next stage now, wouldn’t it be too early?

And what Professor Xu said is what is going on at the First Ministry of Machine Building.

Even when the General Armament Department issued a certificate of commendation, he was not allowed to go.

Is it so wide-ranging? It involves multiple departments?

Or is there a higher-level problem?

Fang thought as he walked.

But after thinking for a long time, I still have no clue.

Before I knew it, I had arrived at the research team's office.

"Junior Brother Fang, our draft of the tractor cylinder expansion drawing has been finalized.

Come and take a look and help find the problem. "

Just as Fang Xiang pushed the door open, Cao Tianwei saw Fang Xiang.

"So fast? Let me take a look."

Fang Xiang, whose thoughts were interrupted, heard what Senior Brother Cao said and quickly stepped forward.

“The optimized version that has been tested for a long time before will have no downtime.

It effectively increased from more than one hundred hours to about two hundred hours.

Our goal this time is to see if we can increase it to 300 hours.

In addition, there are problems such as starting failure, loose valve closure, cylinder pulling, fuel injection pump, fuel transfer pump, and atomization.

In the past, one problem always got solved by another.

I have been troubled for too long, I hope there won’t be any big problems this time.”

Fang Xiang looked at the drawings while Cao Tianwei explained.

His eyes also moved constantly following the pen in Cao Tianwei's hand.

"It still doesn't work. The fundamental problems have basically not been solved."

After looking at dozens of parametric drawings, Fang Xiang shook his head.
