"Why?" Chen Geng was puzzled and said: "I have heard that we plan to buy engines from Poland to make supporting things for the Y-5, but why can't we get a piece of the pie?" It always costs foreign exchange to buy an engine from Poland, right? ”

"You don't understand that, do you?" Guo Mingxin smiled bitterly, he didn't answer directly, but asked Chen Geng first: "Manager, what do you think is the difference in performance between our piston-5 and the ASZ-62IR engine imported from Poland?" ”

"This ......" Chen Geng thought for a while and said, "I don't know exactly what the performance of the Polish ASZ-62IR is, but since the country is willing to spend money on the Polish engine, it must be that the Polish engine is better than our piston-5 engine, right?" ”

"Under normal circumstances, it should be like this," Guo Mingxin nodded: "ASZ-62IR is also imported, even if it is not as good as American and British goods, but it can't be worse than our own, right?" ”

"Yes, that's it." Chen Geng nodded again and again.

"But in fact, the Polish ASZ-62IR engine is not as good as our piston-5." Guo Mingxin said with a wry smile.

"How is that possible?!" Chen Geng's eyes widened: "The imported engine is not as good as our own domestic one?" So why is it still imported in the chain? ”

"Because the engine production line of the Piston-5 was shut down, what should I do if I don't import it? We have several thousand Y-5 planes in China, and they are not only used by the Air Force, but also by units such as agriculture, forestry, fishery, and the Construction Corps. ”

"......" Chen Geng was dumbfounded and didn't know what to say, and after a long time, he said: "Since there is such a large demand and such a large number of Yun-5 holdings, then the production line of the piston-5 should not be shut down." ”

――――――――――――――――――――――――

He is also the leader of the Ministry of Machinery Industry, and the technical characteristics of his work determine that he knows more about machinery, especially engines, than his colleagues in other ministries and commissions, and he knows very well that if Runhua really intends to do this, then Chen Geng is really not joking.

Someone said that the engine equipped on the A-1 attack aircraft was still a product of the 40s, and it has been out of production for almost 30 years so far, or is it the technology of half a century ago, will it be inspiring to the current engine technology? Even if you kneel and lick the skills of the Americans, it's not this kneeling and licking method, is it?

It's really not kneeling.

The Wright "Hurricane" R-3350-26WA engine mounted on the A-1H (AD-6) is an air-cooled engine with 18 cylinders, a dead weight of more than 1.2 tons, and a displacement of more than 54L.

Why are aero engines so expensive? It is because their reliability and limit are much higher than the ordinary gasoline engine on civilian cars, as one of the most classic piston aero engines, even if the Wright "Hurricane" R-3350-26WA engine has been unable to operate normally, it is also an excellent technical reference object for Runhua Industry, if it can operate normally......

Runhua Industry will make a lot of money!

After confirming that Chen Geng was serious, Director Zhen immediately looked at Chen Geng expectantly, wanting to see what surprises Chen Geng could bring to himself: If you want to say that the most enterprising power enterprise in China, Runhua Industry can definitely be counted as one.

"Mr. Ahmed, thank you for your kindness, but I can't take this plane for nothing," looking at Ahmed, Chen Geng said very sincerely: "And this plane is the national property of Pakistan, it is not appropriate for us to do so, so please ask the higher authorities how much this plane costs, as long as the price is right, I will buy it." ”

Ahmed hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded, "Okay, I'll give you an answer as soon as possible." ”

In terms of the rights in his hands, he can give this plane to Chen Geng, but Chen Geng is right, this plane does not belong to himself, but belongs to Pakistan, and as the director of the National Military Museum of Pakistan, he has no right to give this plane to others, even if the plane is not valuable.

………………………………

"Comrade Chen Geng, is this plane really important?" As soon as the front foot returned to the hotel, Director Zhen and Director Fan carried Chen Geng to their room with their back feet and asked with a serious face.

Chen Geng thought for a while and said: "If this aircraft falls into the hands of other domestic units, it is estimated that it will not play any role, but in our hands, learn from the design concept and technology of this engine, we are sure to ...... our country's engine I'm talking about civilian gasoline engines...... A big step forward in 3 years. ”

Chen Geng's answer disappointed Director Zhen and Director Fan: "Can't we design a civilian engine with stable quality and reliable performance?" ”

"Yes!" Chen Geng said without hesitation.

"Great......"

Chen Gengdao: "I can design it now, but designing it does not mean that it can be manufactured," "Materials, processes, precision, production management...... These links are all interlocking, and there is still a lot of work to be done to turn the design into something real. ”

Director Zhen and Director Fan, who had just been happy, were suddenly disappointed on their faces, and they had worked all their lives, and they knew that even if there was a reference object, it would be an extremely big project to copy the reference object, and how many years had we copied the An-12 medium-sized transport plane, but now, the number of the domestic version of the An-12 transport plane: the Y-8 is only a few planes? But just now, when Chen Geng made it clear that he couldn't do it, the two of them were still deeply disappointed in their hearts.

But think about it carefully, the two of them feel that they have too much luxury, with the industrial level of our country, if Chen Geng said that with this engine as a reference, it will be able to enter the international advanced level at once, that is nonsense, full of nonsense, but Chen Geng said that three years can improve the level of domestic engines A big sentence, aroused the curiosity of the two: "Xiao Chen, you said that three years can improve the engine level of our country a big step, to what extent?" ”

Chen Geng replied with confidence: "Basically, the engine can be 100,000 kilometers without major repair." ”

"Really? Can it really be done for 100,000 kilometers without major repairs?! Chen Geng's words immediately shocked Director Zhen and Director Fan.

If Chen Geng can really do 100,000 kilometers of overhaul of an engine, it is really a big step forward for domestic engine technology - although there is still a big gap between 350,000 kilometers of foreign countries without overhaul, but it is indeed a big step forward.

"It's not a big problem," Chen Geng said with confidence: "In addition, I entrusted a friend in Wolfsburg to help us order a batch of processing equipment from Germany, all of which are high-precision machine tools made in Switzerland, although they are second-hand, the accuracy can be guaranteed, with this batch of machine tools, I estimate that we can do 15 to 200,000 kilometers without major repairs...... I'm not sure about any more. ”

"Great! That's great! "Director Zhen and Director Fan are overjoyed!

If Runhua Industry can really achieve 15 to 200,000 kilometers of engines without overhaul, it is equivalent to solving the "heart disease" problem of the Republic to a certain extent, and it is unimaginable how much it will promote the development of the national economy!

――――――――――――――――――――

On the afternoon of the next day, the Pakistani Government sent someone to tell Chen Geng that Pakistan was willing to give the A-1H "Sky Raider" single-seat attack plane from the National Military Museum to Runhua Industrial at a price of one RMB.

A dollar?!

Chen Geng did think of various possibilities before, including how much Pakistan would sell the plane to him, but he didn't expect Pakistan to offer a price of one dollar anyway, what is the difference between this and giving it away for nothing?

"Your Excellency Minister is very grateful for everything Runhua Industry has done for Pakistan and China-Pakistan friendship, you have come to Pakistan to invest and build factories to help us develop our economy, you are a true friend of Pakistan, for friends, the Pakistani people have always been generous, we are willing to give our treasures to our friends......"

Since it was given away for free, of course Chen Geng had no reason not to accept it, but if he really accepted the plane at the price of one dollar, then Chen Geng would inevitably be too bad at being a person, and he immediately said that he would give 20 motorcycles and 5 jeeps to the Karachi government and the police system to help the Karachi government and the Karachi police department improve their operational efficiency.

The visitor left happily: 20 motorcycles and 5 jeeps were a valuable asset, and he needed to report the news to the leadership as soon as possible.

The Pakistani staff left, but the people from Runhua Industry came quickly, and Guo Mingxin and Zhang Pengfei, who arrived in a hurry, stared at their red eyes and looked full of disbelief: "Boss, did you really get an A-1 attack plane?" ”

That's the A-1 attack aircraft, the famous "Sky Raider", not only the absolute protagonist of the U.S. Navy during the Korean War, even during the Vietnam War, although this aircraft has been retired in the United States and their allies, but in many third world countries can still see this rough skin, combat effectiveness of the piston propeller attack aircraft.

A few years ago, the relationship between China and the United States needless to say, belongs to the sworn enemies who want each other to die quickly, naturally there is no way to get this aircraft, in recent years, with the jet supersonic fighters have been put into service one after another, this kind of piston propeller aircraft with a maximum speed of only 500 kilometers per hour has not been much use, but for Guo Mingxin and Zhang Pengfei, two engineers from the Chengdu Aero Engine Factory, the A-1 and the Wright "Hurricane" carried on it The R-3350 engine still has a strong charm and appeal, so much so that after receiving a call from Chen Geng, the two arrived immediately after arranging the work at hand.

Chen Geng nodded with a smile and said: "Not only did I get it, but it is also one of the last two models of the A-1 series: A-1H single-seat attack aircraft, I checked it roughly, although after all these years of wind and rain, many parts have been stolen, but the structure of the aircraft is still intact, and the engine looks good, I think the engine should still be able to start after repair......

"Where is the plane?" Guo Mingxin interrupted Chen Geng's words and said eagerly.

"It has been delivered to a factory in Islamabad......"

Chen Geng wanted to say that you should take a good rest first, and tomorrow we will go over and take a good look at the A-1 attack plane, but before the words were spoken, Zhang Pengfei had already picked up his luggage: "Where is the factory?" Let's go now. ”

As a technician, Chen Geng understood the reactions of Zhang Pengfei and Guo Mingxin, but he still persuaded: "Don't be in such a hurry, you take a rest first, draw up an idea, and when the things in Karachi are done, let's go ......over together."

Both of them understand the principle of sharpening knives and cutting wood, but Guo Mingxin said to Chen Geng: "Manager Chen, Lao Zhang and I have to go over tomorrow, we plan to go through the plane first, and then see how this plan should be done." ”

"That's right...... It's okay," Guo Mingxin's words made sense, Chen Geng thought about it and said, "That's it, I'll go too." ”

"You're going too?" Guo Mingxin and Zhang Pengfei were very surprised.

"You forgot I know a little bit about engines?" Chen Geng said with a smile.

Guo Mingxin and Zhang Pengfei don't know what to say: What do you mean that you also know a little bit about engines, are you the No.1 of our Runhua Industry in engine technology and design? If you hadn't designed these motorcycle engines, would we be able to have Runhua Industry today?

Well?

Thinking of this, the two suddenly realized that they had overlooked a very important point before: the boss had just said that the engine of the A-1 attack plane might still be able to start, so ......

The two glanced at each other, and said at the same time: "! Earn a fortune! ”

――――――――――――――――――――

"! Earn a fortune! ”

This is after seeing the A-1 (H) attack plane that has been sent to a factory, Zhang Pengfei and Guo Mingxin couldn't help but burst into foul language. (To be continued.) )
