Coming out of Mr. Xie, Chen Geng turned around and went to the automobile design and development center, and found Liu Changming, the company's most powerful diesel engine expert and deputy chief engineer of the diesel engine that he had dug from the FAW Automobile Research Institute: "Liu Gong, are you busy?" I've come to you for a question. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"What are you busy with, the diesel engine of the light truck has been finished, and I am uncomfortable during this time," Liu Changming said with a smile: "Chen Dong, I know that you are a busy person, and you will definitely not come to me if you have nothing to do, you say, what is the matter?" ”

"I know I can't hide it from you," Chen Geng picked his thumb, and after chatting with Old Man Xie, Chen Geng still had a broken mind about the problem of the engine used on the ship, for a technical nerd, this kind of disease cannot be cured! "That's the case, if our company wants to form the production capacity of marine diesel engines, how long will it take?"

"Marine diesel?" Liu Changming thought for a while and asked: "It's hard to say, look at what kind of diesel engine is used on the ship, if it is a small and medium-sized inland river transport ship or inland fishing boat, the performance of our own diesel engine can be satisfied, if it is a marine diesel engine at sea, the difference is even greater, the power can be from 100 horsepower to tens of thousands of horsepower, what do you want to know about the diesel engine?" ”

Taking the same 200-ton load as an example, the engine power of the inland river carrier is only more than 100 horsepower, and the power of the fishing boat of the same size is not even 100 horsepower, but the same load of the ocean-going fishing boat, the power requirements for the engine are much higher: now the output power of the power system equipped with 200 tons of fishing boats in the world is basically between 240 horsepower and 300 horsepower, and the output power of these diesel engines purchased by Runhua Industry from Shanchai is slightly lower, more than 190 horsepower. Chen Gengdao: "Even the engines used in our ocean-going purse seine fishing boats. ”

"That's ......"

Liu Changming immediately said: "With the technical level and equipment that our company has mastered now, if you want to manufacture a diesel engine of this power level, if there is external technical input, at most one year, we can produce a qualified diesel engine, but if you start from scratch, don't think about it without three years." ”

If I do it myself, it will take at least 3 years?

Looking at the change in Chen Geng's expression, Liu Changming was overjoyed: Could it be that the company has decided to launch the diesel engine project?

To tell the truth, Runhua Industry now has only one diesel engine, which is the one introduced together with the introduction of light trucks from FAW as a whole, after the completion of the industrial mass production of that diesel engine, the diesel engine project team has nothing to do, which makes Liu Changming, the head of the diesel engine project team of Runhua Industry, a little unworthy of the name now: there are only a few people under him, and they are not alive yet, and no one has a bottom in their hearts, right? If the company decides to launch the diesel engine project, it is of course a good thing, at least it and the entire diesel engine project team will have a lot more say in the company.

With this mentality, Liu Changming asked tentatively: "Chen Dong, don't you really want to make your own diesel engine, do you?" Shanchai's diesel engine is not bad, in addition, Changchai, Xichai, Shangchai these diesel engine factories have a suitable power system, by the way, 83 years when the country is not from Austria as a whole to introduce the Steyr truck project, supporting the introduction of WD615 diesel engine production handed over to Weichai and Hangzhou Automobile Engine Factory, now Weichai's technology is not weak, in addition to WD615, their 6160 series, 6200 series diesel engines are very good, very suitable as ship power, In fact, there is no need for us to build a diesel engine manufacturing plant for this project alone, it is wasteful, and it is not economical......"

"I know what you said," Chen Geng waved his hand and said: "Of course, it is not appropriate to support a diesel engine manufacturing plant for this shipyard alone, but I think that the future economic development of our country will be better and better, and the demand for trucks will be more and more large. ”

"Chen Dong, what you said is true?" Liu Changming suddenly became excited.

He couldn't help but be excited, what kind of marine engine he didn't care about, how many ships could that shipyard build a year? There are less than 100 of them, and they are all small fishing boats of several hundred tons, and all they need is a hundred and ten engines, for such a hundred and ten engines to build a diesel engine manufacturing plant, which is not to save costs, it is full of support, but if the company also decides to increase the production capacity of freight vehicles, it will be different, that means that the demand for at least tens of thousands or even tens of thousands of engines per year, although you can also go to the engine factory to negotiate, and this number may be able to negotiate a more ideal price, but on the contraryThis demand is enough to support an engine manufacturing plant and a diesel engine research institute.

"Of course it's true," Chen Geng could understand why Liu Changming was so excited, and nodded with a smile: "In addition to the truck, if there is a chance in the future, I also hope to make a difference in construction machinery, this thing also needs a diesel engine, and the other ......"

After a pause, Chen Geng lowered his voice and whispered: "You also know that our company is actually a military enterprise, and it will not be without opportunities to compete for military vehicles in the future, so ......"

"I know! I know! ”

Liu Changming was startled at first, but then, his face suddenly became ecstatic!

A complete range of civilian trucks, ships, and now plus a construction machinery and military truck, not to mention a diesel engine manufacturing plant, it is not a problem to feed two medium-sized diesel engine factories, Liu Changming, who understands very well what a big opportunity this is for himself, nodded desperately: "Chen Dong, don't worry, I will keep it a secret and will never reveal half a word to others." ”

I almost swore an oath.

Chen Geng thought that Liu Changming's thoughts were actually crooked in the Pacific Ocean, and he suddenly cried and laughed a little: "I'm not asking you to keep it secret, there is nothing to keep secret about this thing, although we have hope, but who knows if it will be 10 years or 20 years later?" I just hope that we have the technical reserves in this area, and when the day comes, we will be able to come up with a product that can meet the requirements of the army at any time. ”

"I see."

Liu Changming is also a little embarrassed, now looking back and thinking about it carefully, it is true, although the situation of Runhua Industry is relatively special, but the country has become more and more institutionalized in the research and development and installation of military equipment, not that you can develop this equipment The army will definitely use it, even if it is an enterprise that has a lot to do with the army, such as Runhua Industry, but when such an opportunity finally comes, first of all, we can't coax ourselves.

"Cheng, then you start to prepare," Chen Geng patted Liu Changming on the shoulder: "You are more familiar with the diesel engine than me, and you can get a charter when you go back, how to independently develop, how to introduce, the establishment of the R&D system, and the production plant...... It's all up to you. ”

Liu Changming instantly felt that his body was heavy, he knew very well what kind of trust Chen Geng gave him, but this once familiar feeling did not make him feel panicked, but made him excited: "Chairman Chen, please rest assured, I will not let the company down." ”

"I believe in you," Chen Geng nodded, but then admonished: "Remember, it's one thing to work hard, but you must pay attention to your body, the body is the capital of the revolution, you know, our company does not advocate exchanging the body for progress, if I find out that there is such a situation, you are responsible...... You don't want to be exhausted to death after a successful project, do you? ”

Liu Changming touched his head a little embarrassed, he really thought so in his heart: Even if I sleep for three days and three nights, I have to write out this information, and now when I hear Chen Geng say this, I remember that the company still has regulations in this regard, and he smiled: "If I can complete my project before I die, then it will be too worthwhile for me to die." ”

"That's not good, what will happen to our diesel engine after you die?" Speaking of this, Chen Geng suddenly remembered one thing, and hurriedly asked: "By the way, just now you mentioned Weichai, but I thought of one thing: do you think it is possible for us to acquire a diesel engine factory with a certain amount of technology accumulation?" ”

"Buying a diesel engine plant?" Liu Changming was stunned at first, and then his eyes lit up!

That's right, why can't you choose to buy a diesel engine factory outright?! Establish a diesel engine manufacturing enterprise from scratch, and form their own technical accumulation, talent system, how difficult and time-consuming this work is, Liu Changming from together is very clear, whether it is technology or talent, it is necessary to accumulate time in ten years, if you can directly acquire a diesel engine factory with a certain technical accumulation for your own use, it will be too trouble-free!

"I think it's a viable idea!" Liu Changming said excitedly: "I'll go back and inquire to see if there is a diesel engine company with good technology that is not in a good situation and intends to cooperate with foreign countries." ”

"Report to me immediately when you have the news," Chen Geng was also very excited, thought about it, and then advised: "Even if they produce high-power diesel engines, it doesn't matter, we can use high-power diesel engines on ships...... We can't always produce small fishing boats anyway. ”

Chen Geng's words were implicit, but the meaning in them was very clear, Liu Changming hurriedly nodded and said, "Don't worry, Chen Dong, I know what to do." ”

Even if you can't buy it, it doesn't matter, now the diesel engine industry is not having a good time, it's a big deal to dig people yourself, I don't believe anyone can refuse the generous salary and comfortable R&D environment of Runhua Industry. Liu Changming was secretly ruthless in his heart, and he must not live up to Chairman Chen's trust.

It's just that Chen Geng didn't know that a sudden crisis had befallen Runhua Industry. (To be continued.) )
