Chapter 384: Computer Genius
In fact, for the current Chinese military industry, computer-aided design is still an extremely unfamiliar field, but for Lu Jiadong, it is very ordinary, but when he was in China, he did not know whether such equipment existed at this time, so he did not spend too much experience here.
However, not long ago, while attending an arms exhibition in Marseille, France, Lu Jiadong saw a brief report in a certain mainstream media in France that the French company Dassault had introduced several sets of special equipment and systems for computer-aided design for aviation, and only then did he know that there was already computer-aided design at this time.
Therefore, after completing the Iranian military after-sales service, Lu Jiadong, with the consent of Liu Haotian and Tan Bin, introduced three professional high-performance computers manufactured by IBM from the United States through the relationship between Blomberg, and equipped them with several sets of special design calculation system software for aviation, shipbuilding, vehicles, and engineering construction.
Originally, Lu Jiadong's introduction of computer-aided design was mainly to improve the design level of domestic military systems, and then he hoped that China could develop and produce its own high-performance computer-aided design systems and equipment through these samples, so as to raise the overall design level to a new level.
After all, computer-aided design is the inevitable trend of the development of the times, and the traditional manual drawing and design writing are not only time-consuming and laborious, but also have relatively large errors in accuracy, so after Lu Jiadong returned to China, he planned to promote it in the military system on the one hand, and let the domestic military electronics industry such as the Central Plains Electronic Radar Institute imitate it on the other hand.
Just after receiving the appointment, Lu Jiadong decisively suspended the promotion, leaving one in the Zhongyuan Electronic Radar Institute for research and imitation, and the remaining two were all taken to the Wanshan factory by him. Participated in the development of new tanks.
Since there is a sharp weapon, if there is no suitable person to operate, it is like scrap metal, because of this, Lu Jiadong just returned to the Wanshan factory, and called the technicians in the factory who understand English. It is hoped that they will be able to master the essentials of computer-aided design in a short period of time, so that they can play an important role in the development of the new tank that will be launched.
After the establishment of the new tank leading group, Lu Jiadong also set up a computer-aided design office for this purpose, and appointed Hu Qinghua as the director of the computer room.
However, the attention given by Lu Jiadong is unprecedented. However, this computer-aided design studio has been unable to form the ability of design operation and drawing for a long time, and for this reason, Lu Jiadong has repeatedly squeezed out time in his busy schedule to teach the basic essentials of operation methods, but no matter how hard Lu Jiadong tries, the results of the computer-aided design room still have not made much progress.
In this way, Lu Jiadong can only ask the computer-aided design studio to step up his studies, while still retaining the original manual drawing design, for this reason. Xu Yuan has already applied to the headquarters to mobilize hundreds of draftsmen to participate in this huge project at the Wanshan plant.
You must know that it is as small as a screw and as large as the whole three-view and cross-sectional drawing. The drawings of the entire new tank can no longer be calculated with a simple few hundred, but with how many tons to measure, and the time and workload used to draw tons of design drawings by manpower are naturally conceivable, so Lu Jiadong urged the computer-aided design office to form a design capability as soon as possible, because time is more precious than anything else in Lu Jiadong's place!
Because of this. When he saw the report on the operation of the computer-aided design room, his face gradually sank, because he looked through the design samples and semester reports of several people, but they did not achieve the desired effect of Lu Jiadong, even Hu Qinghua, who is the director of the computer-aided design office. This inevitably made Lu Jiadong a little annoyed, and he couldn't help but throw the report on the table in front of him, frowned and said:
"I've been studying for so long, why can't I master it, what have they done during this time?"
Lu Jiadong just returned to the Wanshan factory and transferred Liu Liang to his side, when the new tank development team was established, he was promoted by Lu Jiadong to the assistant to the chief designer, and Liu Liang still admired and respected Lu Jiadong as always, so, seeing Lu Jiadong's depressed face and a little angry, I didn't know how to say it, but Hu Qinghua was a person from Wanshan Factory after all, and it was not good to talk without help, so he could only explain cautiously after thinking about it:
"Mr. Lu, you can't blame Hu Gong for them, I also went to see them yesterday, and it is indeed the same as what Hu Gong said, the computer that I just purchased to assist in the design is not only all in English, but also the input instructions are so complex that it is a headache, and it is indeed very difficult to master it in a short time, anyway, computer-aided design is also our first contact, some rustiness is inevitable, of course, there are a few people who are exceptions, but"
"Exception?" Before Liu Liang finished speaking, Lu Jiadong's eyes suddenly lit up, and then he picked up the report on the desk, and after turning a few pages, a standard and exquisite computer design drawing came into view, and then glanced at the operation method, Lu Jiadong's already gloomy face gradually flashed a little smile, and then nodded with satisfaction at the name of the design draft:
"Zhang Aiguo, yes!" But it didn't take long for Lu Jiadong to feel that something was wrong, and then raised his head to look at Liu Liang who was standing opposite, and asked puzzledly:
"Oh, by the way, I remember that Zhang Aiguo seems to be in the drawing room, why did he run to the computer-aided design room again, how did he get there?"
"Chief Master Lu, why did you forget, just a week ago, Director Hu Qinghua Hu personally approached you and asked to transfer Zhang Aiguo to the computer-aided design room, you agreed without saying a word, and signed the appointment order on the same day!"
Since Lu Jiadong became the chief designer of the new tank, it can be said that everything is complicated, and the things he has to deal with every day, the techniques discussed, and the meetings he has attended are so many that he can't count them, and he can't even remember important things, and as for many details, he can only selectively forget, just like Hu Qinghua's request to transfer Zhang Aiguo to the computer-aided design office, if it weren't for Liu Liang's reminder, Lu Jiadong would not have remembered it at all.
It turned out that since Zhang Jianjun was imprisoned, Lu Jiadong recruited his only son Zhang Aiguo into the training class for young workers of Wanshan Factory at that time in accordance with the previous agreement with Zhang Jianjun, and gave a lot of care in study and work.
But when everyone knew that Zhang Jianjun did not hesitate to risk his life at the last moment in order to protect military secrets and protect Lu Jiadong's life, he did not hesitate to risk his life and cooperate with the security department to wipe out foreign hostile forces, his harsh criticism was reduced a lot, and he was even much more tolerant of Zhang Aiguo, and Zhang Aiguo was not as old and calculating as his father Zhang Jianjun in essence, but was loyal and honest, diligent and studious.
Under Lu Jiadong's careful teaching, he has made great progress in foreign languages, overall theoretical design, mathematical calculations and machining technology, even if Lu Jiadong was transferred out of the Wanshan factory, Zhang Aiguo is still hard work, and there is no waste in learning, because of this, after the establishment of the new tank development team, Zhang Aiguo was transferred by Lu Jiadong to the drawing room as the leader of the theoretical calculation and overall design team.
Because the office of his drawing group is not far from the computer-aided design room, and Hu Qinghua, the director of the computer-aided design office, is also one of Zhang Aiguo's main teachers in the training class for young workers that year, Zhang Aiguo often goes to Hu Qinghua to ask for some technical problems.
For this reason, he borrowed a few original foreign tutorials from Hu Qinghua, and with the help of the foreign language skills and English-Chinese dictionaries he learned, he not only completed all the tutorials by himself, but also took advantage of the opportunity to rest in the computer-aided design room to personally go on the computer for operation inspection.
Once, his computer operation was inadvertently seen by Hu Qinghua, director of the computer-aided design office, and he was directly shocked, you must know that he has led the computer-aided design office, it has been almost two months, during which Lu Jiadong, as the chief designer, came to teach several times in person, and the effect was not very ideal, but Zhang Aiguo only used self-study to learn all the things that Hu Qinghua and others dreamed of mastering, if this is not a genius or something.
So, Hu Qinghua called Lu Jiadong that night, hoping to transfer Zhang Aiguo to the computer-aided design office, but Lu Jiadong was discussing things with Xu Yuan at that time, so he casually agreed and did not ask the reason, Hu Qinghua also knew that Lu Jiadong was very busy, and he was afraid that he would forget it when he turned around.
Therefore, he directly took Zhang Aiguo to find Lu Jiadong the next day, and directly explained the cause and effect, and asked Zhang Aiguo to be transferred to the computer-aided design room no matter what, Lu Jiadong was also very happy at that time, the so-called computer genius He had heard a lot in later generations, but he didn't expect it to exist at this time, and it was by his side, because of this, Lu Jiadong readily agreed.
