Traveling through the sword to engage in military industry

It wasn't that Ren Zhong couldn't find other radio information, but relatively speaking, this PARASET, which should be released in the Bright Sword world next year (1941), had relatively complete online imitation data, including hands-on DIY teaching materials and enthusiast exchange groups. Although it was in a foreign language, for liberal arts students like Ren Zhong who had passed Level 4, general written communication in that foreign language wasn't a big problem, especially with so many online translation tools available.

There were hands-on tutorials for production, and the popularity of the enthusiast group was also very good, much better than other radios, such as the Japanese Type 94 Model 3 radio.

Moreover, in terms of performance, the communication range of this radio, which could be carried by a single soldier, was also sufficient for the current base area. According to the performance tests of American radio enthusiasts, this small radio with only 2 watts of transmission power could achieve communication throughout the entire United States!

With this performance, what more could you ask for? Let's just go for it.

For the current base area, that was completely sufficient. Even from the border area to Jiangnan, Saibei, and the Northeast, this one model could handle it all.

"Xiaofeng, are you free?" When Ren Zhong called the last classmate who hadn't yet been reduced to a tool, Song Xiaofeng's fate was already sealed.

Without saying much, Song Xiaofeng became the second employee of the toy company, with the position of Vice President. However, his main focus was to create the PARASET. Zhao Lidong couldn't control him, and in the future, he would be solely responsible for the development and production of retro communication equipment from World War II, such as retro radios, retro telephones, and retro walkie-talkies.

Ren Zhong's reason for investing was very sufficient, just like Zhao Lidong's retro simulation model guns, targeting the adult military enthusiast market. The two types of products complemented each other perfectly, allowing these players to team up and fight on a large scale while carrying radios in the future!

As for whether this could become bigger and stronger in the main world market, Ren Zhong himself had no hope at all. His main purpose was to make Zhao Lidong and Song Xiaofeng excited and passionate, because tools are most important to complete tasks.

Anyway, after getting these things done, these tools would soon go on to do other things. Even a liberal arts student would be forced to switch careers and start an engineering business.

Of course, Ren Zhong didn't expect these two guys to make these things themselves. It was essential to find professionals. The role of the two was to be project managers, and then try to find some professionals to form temporary teams to develop and complete these projects.

It was just that Ren Zhong didn't need to hire them as full-time employees, because these things were basically one-off deals in the real world. Letting them understand the entire design and production process would allow the Bright Sword world to produce them according to the drawings and detailed process instructions.

The main purpose on the main world side was to create a retro prototype and test the production process.

As for the production process level and the components and raw materials used, Ren Zhong's restriction for them was to use materials that could be produced in the 1940s as much as possible.

The main focus was on the original retro style.

Having said that, Ren Zhong still slightly relaxed the requirements for electronic components. Using vacuum tubes and old-fashioned capacitors and resistors was fine. If they couldn't be found, they should use similar vacuum tubes. Digital logic devices should absolutely not be used unless absolutely necessary.

Moreover, finding a substitute for the original historical product, preferably a no-name brand without a factory name, would make it easier for Ren Zhong to use when he brought it back to the Bright Sword world, without needing to explain.

Electronic components are relatively small, and after the recent experiments, Ren Zhong could carry back enough components for twenty or thirty radios at a time through parcels.

As for structural components such as boxes and knobs, which take up a lot of space, there was no technical content, and they could be completely produced in the Bright Sword world.

In this way, calculating the demand, even if it was configured to the battalion level, the base area currently had less than a hundred regiments, and the total demand would be no more than a few hundred sets at most. Ren Zhong could completely handle this amount by carrying the goods himself.

Having temporarily solved the development plan for communication equipment, Ren Zhong's goal turned to the two most painful problems: metallurgy and machining!

The war in the Bright Sword world would ultimately need to be resolved through an iron torrent. The raw materials required to produce a huge number of iron torrents could not be brought over from the main world.

War is about logistics. The most important thing is to ensure the supply of weapons and ammunition. Completing large-scale steelmaking and large-scale weapons and ammunition production in the Bright Sword world is Ren Zhong's ultimate mission.

After all, according to the development of the original timeline, the base area would not be able to solve this problem even after driving away the Japanese devils. The main source of weapons still came from various combat seizures.

The biggest shortcoming was the lack of a metallurgical industry and a machining industry to support it. Simply put, there was a lack of industrialized blast furnaces for steelmaking and various machine tools required for machining, such as lathes, drilling machines, boring machines, milling machines, grinding machines, shapers, and welding machine tools.

These machine tools are still the foundation of industry even after a hundred years, but they have been upgraded and replaced.

However, when Ren Zhong began to delve into machine tools, he realized that it would not be easy to achieve independent production in this industry, even now.

It was easy to buy a machine tool, and ordinary machine tools could be bought for tens of thousands of dollars, but Ren Zhong estimated that it would not be possible to build an ordinary machine tool for one million dollars. From materials and design to processing, it would not be easy to design a machine tool that could be processed and manufactured during World War II.

Looking at so many complex machine tool equipment, Ren Zhong did not give up.

After searching, he found a manual punch press, which was the easiest to get started with. According to the collected information, this manual punch press had the simplest structure and did not require electricity, which reduced a lot of electrical equipment. According to the product description, the maximum punching pressure of this manual punch press could reach 500 kg. For other machining, this punching pressure was like tickling, but Ren Zhong saw the potential of this manual punch press in manufacturing bullet casings. This punching pressure should be enough for processing thin brass plates.

Relying on his own strength to make a machine tool, even the simplest one, Ren Zhong asked himself that he did not have the ability, so he still offered a lot of money and prepared to find a machining factory or a machining expert to solve this problem.
