Chapter Seventy-Eight: Armor

The British technicians have arrived in Shudu, which is a sudden news, but it seems to be good news if you think about it carefully, after all, this also means that you can contact the British side earlier, and in the current situation, of course, the sooner you contact the other party, the better.

That is, on the third day of the official start of trial production of the lens production line, after a little disguise, Tu Zhenyin took Wang Zhengguo together, and the two quietly came to the 123 factory guest house, and now it is a weekend.

The so-called self-arrangement of the schedule, in fact, only gave the British technicians a certain right to choose, whether to sleep in the guest house with their heads covered, or to go out to see the characteristics of Shudu accompanied by foreign affairs personnel, this can be made by themselves......

"Later, I will only be responsible for bringing you in, how to communicate and communicate with the British, I can't help, at most I can only watch from the sidelines, mainly to help you let go of the wind and try to intercept the people in the guest house outside. ”

Tu Zhenyin's foreign language is not good, if she wants to speak English, it is almost impossible, if it weren't for the technical difficulties of Shuhang Optics this time, she said that she didn't want to contact the British, and it always felt very awkward.

Walking on the corridor, the first feeling is that the hardware facilities of the guest house in the early eighties are not necessarily good, although the guest house of the 123 factory has also had the experience of entertaining foreign guests, but the various facilities are still very ordinary, and even not as good as the roadside hotel thirty years later, this kind of guest house can have a market in the eighties and nineties.

At this time, the British technicians working in the 123 factory are not only the three companies that produce translucent parts, but also other companies that produce head-up display and navigation equipment are also stationed in the Shudu 123 factory, so the guest house also specially opened up a British technician accommodation area.

It was also after thinking of various ways that I hid from the staff of the guest house, and finally met the British technician, a middle-aged man in his thirties, with a very ordinary British appearance, he matched the iconic appearance of almost all Anglo-Saxon races, and the first choice was to confirm that he was an Englishman.

John, a British technical engineer who had planned to rest in his room for a good day, was a little interested in the sudden visitor, and on the person standing in front of him, he could feel a temperament different from that of other Republicans, but for a while he couldn't tell what was different, so he chose to sit down and spend half an hour to understand.

From this moment on, formal contact between the two sides had begun, and the talks began slowly and painfully in Wang Zhengguo's standard broken Chinese English, and after a brief introduction of himself, the British understood the purpose of the meeting.

"Wait, I can probably understand what you mean by now, that is, you want to introduce the optical technology of our Mie Company, right?"

The British guy really couldn't stand such lame English, and after even guessing, he roughly understood the meaning, and directly interrupted Wang Zhengguo's words rudely, and said what he could roughly guess in his heart now, as for whether the meaning was accurate, then let's talk about it.

Speaking English face-to-face, it does seem a little stuttering because it has not been used for many years, but this does not prevent the proficiency in listening, after all, there are too many American dramas thirty years later, and I have watched a lot of English subtitles and dialogues, so this time I completely understood what John said, Wang Zhengguo felt that there was a problem that the two sides had not yet figured it out.

After trying to organize the language again, and after thinking for a long time, he spoke again: "We do need some of the optical technology that your company is selling this time, but it is not the canopy forming technology, we only need the material technology, and this should only be a sub-project of the technology you are selling this time." ”

In order to make qualified fighter cockpit canopy and windshield, it is necessary to have enough excellent material technology and molding technology at the same time, and at this time, Shuhang Optics only needs material technology rather than molding technology, which must be clearly distinguished.

Fortunately, the British finally understood the meaning, and asked suspiciously: "If you only need material technology, maybe it will be easier to introduce technology, but what I don't understand now is, what is the use of you introducing this technology? This kind of material is generally used more in airplanes, but your country has designated a unit to produce new cockpit canopy technology, and now even if you introduce it, it won't have much effect, right?"

When it comes to the production of high-pass lens lenses for civilian use, those large optical giants have always been controlled in Europe and the United States, Zeiss, Leica, Schneider, etc. are super predators, and it is naturally difficult for a small company in a corner of Mie to think that in a remote and backward republic, someone will try to make PMMA resin glasses.

It seems that the British are still very curious about Wang Zhengguo's intentions, if this is the case, they can take this opportunity to communicate more, anyway, the two sides have only this chance to meet, if they cannot successfully obtain the approval of the British today, then it will be very difficult to meet again to strive for cooperation.

In this way, it should be a dose of fierce medicine first, now that Shuhang Optics has just been founded, if it is really to tell the truth, it will inevitably be looked down upon by the British, but if you do a little artistic processing of language, it is naturally another matter.

"The introduction of material technology must be useful, on the basis of my representative of Shuhang Optics, it is the only one engaged in the production of dual-use optical protective equipment in the Republic of China, mainly producing glasses for various purposes, including white light myopia / reading glasses, polarizers, military goggles, windproof goggles, etc., now I heard that you are doing very well in resin optical materials, especially the bulletproof effect is extremely good, so we plan to introduce technology, or the two sides to carry out cooperation. ”

Technology introduction or anything is nonsense, the current Shu Hangxue can not only take out foreign exchange to do technology introduction, so from the very beginning, Wang Zhengguo has the idea of cooperation between the two sides, and only in this way can it be possible to achieve the purpose of empty gloves and white wolves.

It was also the first time that the British, who had come from afar, heard that there was such an optical unit in the Republic, mainly for the production of military goggles, and what was that, I had never heard of it before, and this should not be!

In the 80s, the military personal armor was far less vigorous and varied than it was 30 years later, at the peak of the Cold War, when NATO and the Warsaw Pact were still dominated by large-scale nuclear warfare and frontal armor confrontations, and these confrontations were mainly achieved by heavy weapons.

After all, no matter how good your soldiers' personal protection is, under the indiscriminate bombardment of all kinds of missiles and armored weapons, there is not even a slag left, that is, after 2000, after the NATO troops led by the US military began to fight a law and order war, various guerrilla cold guns and cold artillery attacks on patrol soldiers were frequent, which attracted the attention of the US military, and began to study all kinds of individual armor, and military goggles were also developed and matured on a large scale at this time.

Prior to this, the glasses products that were really used on a large scale in the military were only the polarized toad lenses that were put into use on a large scale during World War II, which was originally used by the Air Force in the era of propeller fighters.

The only remaining practical function is to ensure that soldiers can barely protect their eyes and achieve anti-glare functions when they do daily work under the sun.

In fact, this is also a helpless thing, the Air Force polarized toad lens is made of silicate material, glasses wear all kinds of heavy, not to mention, it does not fit the contours of the soldier's face, in the face of various sudden explosions, silicate lenses will easily break, who dares to use that guy?

Therefore, whether it was NATO countries or Warsaw Pact countries in the 80s, the army units did not think about preparing individual goggles (PS: goggles used by tank soldiers are another matter), in this case, Wang Zhengguo has already thought about it, he must quickly make up for this shortcoming, and prepare enough personal protection for NATO soldiers fighting on the front line of resisting the Soviet Union's iron torrent.
