Siheyuan Great Craftsmen

The most important thing is that it is small and light. It is mainly towed by trucks, but can also be moved by people or horses. It weighs 385 kg in marching mode and 613 kg in combat mode. Its maximum range is 8500 meters.

Given the terrain of the peninsula, the 107 rocket launcher is obviously more suitable for combat requirements in different terrains and can also provide powerful firepower support for frontline soldiers.

Three days later, Zhou Tian had just finished training his colleagues in the technical department and returned to the office. He was about to continue drawing the blueprints of the 107 rocket launcher when there was a knock on the office door.

"Come in!"

Hearing the knock on the door, he put away the rocket launcher drawings.

A handsome young man in a Zhongshan suit pushed the door open. It was Zheng Weiguo, the secretary recruited by Director Yang during this period.

"Hello, Chief Zhou. The factory manager asked me to tell you that your newly developed boring machine has been assembled. The factory manager wants you to come over!"

"Finished? So soon?"

Zhou Tian was immediately shocked by Zheng Weiguo's words. You know, the boring machine has no less than hundreds of parts, but Director Yang actually processed all these parts in such a short time.

It seems that Director Yang was also driven crazy by Zhou Tian’s new boring machine.

"Okay! I'll go with you right now!"

As Zhou Tian spoke, he put the rocket launcher drawings into the drawer and locked it. Then he picked up a notebook and hurried out of the office with Zheng Weiguo and walked towards the third workshop.

The third workshop.

Director Yang and the workshop director of the third workshop were looking at the horizontal boring machine that had just been assembled in front of them, their faces full of joy. They were surrounded by a number of workers who were watching the fun and several master craftsmen who were installing the horizontal boring machine.

"Lao Wang, the processing speed of this boring machine in your workshop is not slow. How is it? Have you tested it? How is its performance?"

Director Yang asked.

"Director, isn't it you who's in a hurry? I just had a few master craftsmen assemble it according to the drawings and sent someone to tell you the good news, so I haven't had time to experiment yet!"

The workshop director of the third workshop said with a smile.

"Besides, this is the new boring machine developed by our Master Zhou. I also want to wait for Master Zhou to come before experimenting. Wouldn't I be more confident this way?"

"You! You are really smart, but I have asked my secretary to invite Section Chief Zhou, so he should be here by now!"

As Director Yang was speaking, suddenly, there was some commotion among the workers surrounding them.

"Everyone, make way and let Section Chief Zhou in!"

A familiar voice was heard, and Director Yang and the director of the third workshop looked over and saw Zhou Tian walking over from the group of workers.

"Director, Director Lu!"

"Zhou, you're here. Come and have a look at the new boring machine you developed."

Seeing Zhou Tianyang, Director Yang spoke quickly without waiting for Director Lu to speak.

"Okay! Director!"

Zhou Tian responded and came to the boring machine to start inspection under the attention of everyone, especially the car body, which was his main focus. After all, the car body provided the basis for installing and supporting other components, and had a great impact on the accuracy of the entire boring machine.

If the car body is tilted or unstable, the impact on the entire boring machine will be fatal.

After pressing hard with his hands and feeling the stability and tension of the car body, Zhou Tian nodded with satisfaction. Then he checked the column, spindle box, workbench, boring spindle, feed mechanism gearbox, lead screw and nut, guide rails, various gears, racks, motors, and related components of the control system before getting up.

"How is it, Master Zhou, is there any problem with the installation of the boring machine?"

A master chef immediately stepped forward and asked after Zhou Tian finished the inspection.

"Master Liu, don't worry, there will be no problem with the installation!"

Zhou Tian looked at Master Liu who looked nervous and said with a smile.

Hearing that there were no problems with the installation, several master craftsmen breathed a sigh of relief. It was no wonder they were so nervous. The main reason was that the workshop director had specifically instructed them to install this horizontal boring machine. If anything went wrong, it would have a huge impact on their future.

"Zhou boy, is everything okay?"

Just then, Director Yang and Workshop Director Lu Guotao also came over and asked.

"Director, Director Lu, no problem!"

After getting Zhou Tian's confirmation, the two of them immediately felt relieved.

"Okay, since there is no problem, Director Lu, let's start the experiment!"

"Okay, director!"

Upon hearing this, Director Lu nodded and made arrangements. Soon, several master craftsmen began to take turns conducting experiments on the horizontal boring machine.

Zhou Tianze, Director Yang and Director Lu were nervously waiting for the results.

As several masters became proficient at operating the new boring machine, processing various precision parts, and starting various tests, tiny sparks flickered amid the roar of the machine.

Half an hour later, the data came out one after another. Director Yang couldn't wait to ask, "How is it? What are the data?"

The technician in charge of recording the data replied excitedly: "Director, all the data are excellent. The performance of this boring machine far exceeds our expectations!"

Upon hearing the news, the scene was filled with jubilation. Director Yang patted Zhou Tian on the shoulder excitedly and said, "Congratulations, Zhou, you have made another great contribution!!"

Zhou Tian smiled modestly and didn't say anything. He knew that Director Yang should be able to understand what he meant!

At this moment, Zheng Weiguo rushed over: "Director, there is an urgent call for you."

"Okay, I'll be there right away!"

Director Yang frowned slightly, turned to Zhou Tian and said, "Zhou boy, I'm going to answer the phone first, you keep an eye on this place!"

See Zhou Tian nodded.

He looked at Lu Guotao again: "Since the data is out, then you can ask the workers to make a few more machines. The data of just one boring machine cannot explain anything. Wait until a few new boring machines are produced and test them for a few days, and then I will ask the higher-ups for credit for you!"

"Yes! Director, I will arrange it!"

Lu Guotao also nodded.

After giving the two instructions, Director Yang turned around and left the third workshop.

"Master Zhou, I never thought that such an advanced boring machine could be developed by you alone?"

After watching Director Yang leave, Lu Guotao looked at Zhou Tian beside him and couldn't help but sigh.

"Director Lu, you are too kind. To be honest, the boring machine is not my research. I just improved the boring machines in the factory!"

Zhou Tian said modestly that he was not lying. Although he considered himself a genius, he did not think of himself as an all-rounder. Seriously speaking, with his existing knowledge, it was not impossible for him to develop a boring machine, but the current boring machine could not be compared with the original lathe.

After all, when he was developing the lathe, he tried his best to develop the most advanced lathe according to the current industrial level, but this boring machine is obviously not one of them.

For him, this is just a transitional product. Compared with the lathe, it may not be outdated within ten years, but this boring machine will be surpassed by the same type of boring machines from abroad in a few years.

So in fact, this boring machine is not that important to Zhou Tian. It is just a means for him to prevent Big Brother from noticing it. It cannot lag behind Big Brother's similar products, nor can it be much more advanced.

Half an hour later, Director Yang walked back into the workshop with a serious look on his face. He looked at Zhou Tian and Lu Guotao and said, "Zhou, Lao Lu, we just received a notice from our superiors that there is a batch of urgent production tasks that need to be completed as soon as possible. The time is very tight. You need to produce more new boring machines as soon as possible!"

"I'm going to have a meeting at the department right now. From now on, the boring machine business is up to you!"

"Please rest assured, Director, we will definitely complete the task!"

Lu Guotao and Zhou Tian nodded seriously.

"Okay, then I'm relieved! Then you guys get busy! I'll be leaving first!"

Having said that, Director Yang left in a hurry again.

After Director Yang left, Zhou Tian and Lu Guotao discussed the task of producing boring machines in the workshop in the next few days and then left the workshop.

Now the boring machine is still under experiment, and it basically won't make much difference whether he is there or not. He also has the design task of 107 multiple rocket launcher, so he plans to draw the drawings of 107 rocket launcher as soon as possible.

After all, he had a feeling that he might be busy for a while!
