10. Self-produced supercars

A real megaton steel plant?

Chen Chen raised his head and looked at Ye Mu vigorously: "The million-ton steel plant is the object of the state's ban......"

Nangang City's news about Heli Ark Co., Ltd. spread, according to statistics, the total investment scale before and after reached 85 billion.

The Nangang Iron and Steel Plant of the New Iron and Steel Group is rumored to have purchased 27.6 billion yuan. The plant has an annual steel production capacity of only 1 million tons, but there is plenty of land reserved for the factory to serve as the headquarters of the new steel group after it moved south......

It seems that the area of the steel plant is 50 square kilometers, that is, 75,000 mu, and there is the basic planning, that is, the railway from the wharf to the steel plant, and the section of the steel plant linked to the railway system, but the purchase price of 27.6 billion yuan still looks too high. Ye Mu then invested almost 60 billion yuan...... What is the concept of 60 billion yuan, and the new steel plant with an annual output of 6 million tons is more than rubbed.

"The output of ordinary steel mills can reach 3 million tons. 1 million tons is ...... alloy material output" Ye Mu smiled: "If your military needs high-quality aircraft carrier deck steel, submarine shell steel, and all kinds of high-strength steel, you can place an order with me, including aircraft engine materials." By the way, I also have two T1100 and M50J carbon fiber precursor production lines, welcome to place an order if you need it. ”

"Ahem!" Chen Chen almost squirted out of a mouthful of beer in his throat: "There must be a limit to bragging." ”

"Believe it or not. ”

"Really?"

Ye Mu picked up a string of pork belly and ate it: "You can place an order and try it." ”

"Damn! If it's true, you'll alarm the Party Central Committee. If it's fake, it's a lie about the military situation. Do you know what T1100 and M50J carbon fiber mean? Also, do you understand the technical specifications of aircraft carrier deck steel and submarine steel......

T800H carbon fiber can now be manufactured in China......

If Ye Mu can make T1100 and M50J carbon fiber, then graphite fiber is certainly not a problem, which is the top aerospace material that China has not yet mastered.

"I'm producing for civilian use, and I'm going to set up a car company. It is estimated that a new product launch will be held before Chinese New Year's Eve. ”

"Bragging has a limit......

Ye Mu has invested so much money, it is definitely not possible to build an ordinary steel factory with an annual output of 3 million tons. Chen Chen knew that all the money he had was borrowed from, with an annual output of 3 million tons, and even the bank interest was not enough. However, it is unlikely that the production of alloy materials and high-performance carbon fiber for the aerospace field will be possible.

"Believe it or not. By the way, when will my sister and Xia Qian return to China?"

"The situation in Africa has deteriorated further. It is unlikely that I will return to China for repairs this year, and it is estimated that it will not be until the middle of next year, depending on the situation over there. Your two mines in Africa have been invested by Huaguo companies there, and these need to be protected......"

Eating meat and drinking wine, several people did not return until late at night.

The next day, it was just dawn.

Ye Mu's mobile phone rang: "Hey, Ye Mu, have you woken up?"

"Wake up. ”

"I've recruited the talent you need. Stephen Charleskin, the former director of engineering at Siebel, went to the Italian supercar town the year before last to create his own brand, but failed. And the supercar designer you need, who used to work for ZONE Design Company, Angelo...... Both have their own teams, with a total of 31 people. Salary, Stephen needs an annual salary of $700,000, and Angelo needs an annual salary of $500,000...... The total annual payroll cost for recruiting these two teams is $5 million. ”

"No problem. When can I come over?"

"Anytime. ”

Ye Mu sent a private jet to receive them, and arrived in Nangang late the next night.

Stephen's team of 25 people is mainly responsible for the production process. Angelo's team is a designer and participates in the production management process.

The car company is located in a dilapidated building of less than 1,500 square meters in a steel plant.

Ye Mu Modern Stephen and Angelo visited the factory, the old factory building was a big disappointment, but after visiting the carbon fiber production workshop, the two were full of confidence. The carbon fiber production workshop not only has the carbon fiber precursor production line, but also includes textile, shaping and other equipment.

"The carbon fiber materials required by the car are all self-produced, including T500, T800, T1100 and M50J, a total of four specifications and six models. The steelmaking factory can forge high-performance engines, and all the materials needed for automobiles are produced in-house...... "Ye Mu took the two into the office, took out a few documents, and handed them to the two: "This is the data of various materials." And the supercar shape I designed......"

The black supercar has two large air intakes at the front, and the body is perfectly aerodynamic.

It has been said that technology is both art......

There are three air intakes at the front of the car, and a row in the middle is like a hideous giant mouth, with small air intakes on both sides, which are specially designed to enhance the grip of the sports car. The body has graceful lines on both sides, extending to the rear end, with a Lamborghini-like design, and the rear engine can be seen......

At the rear, it has a rear wing similar to that of Bugatti, which automatically adjusts the attitude of the rear wing according to its speed.

At the same time, the design of the butt of the car is combined with the turf, so that no matter how fast the car runs, the grip of the car always remains within a numerical range.

And then there's the engine of the supercar.

There are two models here, the W16 engine and the W24 engine.

W16, 64 valve type W, 16-cylinder direct-injection engine, four turbochargers. Drivetrain: four-wheel drive, 7-speed semi-automatic transmission.

Displacement CC: 6805

Power: 1350 hp 6000 rpm

Torque: 1150 Nm at 2200 rpm

Wheelbase (mm): 2700

Length/width/height (mm): 4266/1958/1306

Weight: 365 kg

……

W24, 152 valve type W, 24-cylinder direct-injection engine, 12 turbochargers...... 11-speed automatic transmission......

Maximum displacement: 9505

Power: 2950 hp 2200 rpm

Torque: 1650 Nm at 2200 rpm

Weight: 575 kg

……

"No, it can't be!" exclaimed Stephen, who was most interested in engine performance. The engine data is exciting, the W16 engine data is acceptable, but the W24 is what the hell.

The engine is not the more cylinders the better, to give full play to the performance of each cylinder, this is a mature engine.

The W24 engine is not absent, but it can only be installed in handmade cars, non-production cars. In terms of overall performance, it can't even compare to a full-fledged V12 sports car.

The highest sports car is the W16, such as some small cars of the Bugatti Veyron.

"In my eyes, there is nothing impossible in the world. Ye Mu tapped the table: "This is the first generation of black dragons and the second generation of black dragons. Both cars have a complete design, from the engine to a screw, and all the parameters are recorded in my computer. I'll give you access to the database later...... Now the main work is to manufacture the parts of the supercar, and I will provide all the materials, and the industrial processing problem will be troublesome. ”

Stephen's face was red.

Angelo only saw the design of the body, and had not seen the content behind it, and was a little dazed.

"W24 engine, if the data is correct, how to solve the high temperature of engine operation, the high temperature generated by braking, and how to maintain the overall structure of the body ......"

"You don't understand the use of materials if you talk too much. Ye Mu gave the two of them the company's internal database account number and password, and asked them to read it as soon as possible and start working.

It took them a week to digest these things, and after a week, the two of them had forged fifty W12 engine shells and 30 W24 engine shells, as well as the relevant materials (not including carbon fiber) with black circles under their eyes.

Then there is the problem of parts processing.

The parts needed by the first and second generations of the Black Dragon may not be able to be processed in China, except for large military enterprises, and the processed materials need to be sent abroad. The companies involved in the processing are in 6 countries, and they are all the world's top supercar partners and aerospace technology companies.

Stephen was in charge of this.

Angelo modeled on the computer based on the available data, calculated the theoretical data, and was responsible for the assembly of the supercar......

The biggest problem now is the tires.

Handmade tires from Michelin, a notch higher than Bugatti's. Now the calculated data, the Black Dragon I model, if fast, is only enough to run for 11 minutes on a tank of fuel, and four tires need to be replaced in 10 minutes. The Black Dragon II model, on the other hand, theoretically needs to be replaced in less than 4 minutes.
