"Oh? That's great, I hope you can do it as soon as possible, if this business can be successful, then it's not just us who have such a need! ”
Director Qian said to Jin Xiaoqiang with a smile, and he didn't know if it was true or false.
"Don't worry, Director Qian actually didn't tell you that in the past few days, during the period after you left, I have been thinking about the new military vehicle, and I myself have a corresponding plan for this military vehicle. After you left, I was thinking, if the military adopts our military vehicle, we will adopt a modular design, after all, when I was thinking about this car, I thought that the body of this car is longer than that of the Humvee, so if such a chassis is made, just as a light combat vehicle, it will be a bit too wasteful, we can also make more of this model for him, such as light transport vehicles, or tactical command vehicles, wounded ambulances, and even special needs vehicles and so on. No, this is my stepdad drawing with flowers recently, you can take a look first......"
Jin Xiaoqiang said as he smiled and took out more than a dozen drawings from the drawer under the table and handed them to Qian Longjiang, who also took those drawings with a face full of interest.
In fact, after Qian Longjiang left last time, Jin Xiaoqiang was thinking about the design of the combat vehicle, and indeed this combat vehicle from the 15th Knight had a six-meter-long body.
It turned out that when Lao Mei designed this car, he used Ford's large pickup F550 chassis, and the car was simply a road monster in the eyes of later generations.
With such a body length, it is a bit too wasteful to just use it to make an armed combat vehicle.
In fact, the helmet company has also made many changes to this car, and now Jin Xiaoqiang certainly can't miss such a modification opportunity.
After all, there is a big difference between military vehicles and local vehicles, and the first thing they pay attention to is that the leather is durable, easy to repair, and maintained.
If the modular design is adopted, the key parts of many vehicles will be interchangeable, so that they can better meet the needs of the troops.
At present, the world's more famous combat models, that is, the American Humvee, and the Mercedes-Benz Umonique.
The Hummer is more famous, that is because he thought he has passed the test of two wars, and the Mercedes-Benz Umonik is boasted very well, but after all, he has not made much name on the battlefield.
However, these two cars adhere to two different design ideas, and Jin Xiaoqiang's design ideas are more inclined to the Umonique model, after all, this car still pays more attention to protection.
However, the body of this combat vehicle he designed is not as long as Umonic, and the body weight is not as heavy as Umonic, and the body looks a little lower than Umonic, but the overall size is larger than that of the Humvee.
"What about so many deformation cars......"
When Qian Longjiang took over the design drawings, he looked at the car shapes on the paper, and kept sighing, this time the drawings were not sketches like last time, but Jin Xiaoqiang put forward the design concept, and after drawing the sketches, the draftsmen specially found these drawings were entered into the computer and carefully drawn step by step.
The effect of dozens of pictures is much better than the sketch, and it can highlight the surname of the car more, no wonder Qian Longjiang sighed one after another after reading it.
Pan Yifan, who was beside him, couldn't resist the temptation and poked his head over, and even Meng Qiang, who came from the navy department, poked his head over and wanted to take a look.
"Hehe, yes, after you left last time, I carefully considered the original design, and felt that the six-meter-long chassis, if only used as a combat vehicle, was a bit wasteful, so I designed two types of long nose and short nose with my team, covering from 1.5 tons to 12 tons, a total of more than 30 kinds of deformed vehicles, mainly to cater to your military's appetite!"
Jin Xiaoqiang smiled and explained to Qian Longjiang, who was still looking at the drawings and constantly sighing.
"You little gold, are you ...... Really, Lao Liu used to say that you were a genius, and I thought he was bragging, but now I'm really convinced, your designs, really, I have nothing to say. After reading these pictures, I am very relieved, Xiaojin, you can rest assured, as long as you can produce these models, our troops will definitely be talking about it when the time comes, and they will definitely purchase it when the time comes, and I can make a decision now. ”
Qian Longjiang is also very happy, with the technical support of Huayang Power, it seems that the tactical support force of the future rapid reaction force can now be said to be a little rudimentary.
"Hahaha, where, where, Director Qian, you are too polite, these drawings are not my credit alone, they are created by me and the team behind me. Hehe, come, let me introduce to you, the main person in charge of this project, Comrade Liu Changshan, Lao Liu, don't hang around at the door anymore, come in! ”
Jin Xiaoqiang saw the figure that had been shaking at the door, and shouted to the door with a smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the office was pushed open, and an old man in his fifties with gray hair and a medium-sized chubby figure walked in.
"Mr. Jin, you called me?"
The old man entered the house, smiled and pretended to be confused and said to Jin Xiaoqiang, Jin Xiaoqiang didn't kick him, so he stood up and said to Qian Longjiang.
"Come, Director Qian, let me introduce to you, this is the main supporter of our company who will be mainly responsible for your project in the future, Liu Changshan, Chief Designer Liu."
"Huh? Isn't Lao Liu and you in charge of this project? ”
Qian Longjiang looked at Jin Xiaoqiang with some confusion.
"Haha, it's Lao Liu, it's just that this old Liu Fei is the old Liu, but don't worry, Old Man Liu Hong will also be in this project, but he is mainly responsible for the diesel engine, and the shape and armor design of my main car, this Liu Changshan Liu Chief Designer, is mainly responsible for the chassis you need."
Jin Xiaoqiang hurriedly explained to Qian Longjiang, and when Qian Longjiang heard this, he reacted that his feelings were like this, so he hurriedly shook hands with Liu Changshan enthusiastically.
Jin Xiaoqiang looked at the Liu Changshan beside him, shook hands with Qian Longjiang, and was also relieved, he was still a little scared, the military had some opposition to this Liu Changshan joining the design team, but fortunately, it seems that the other party has not rejected it too much.
This Liu Changshan is not simple, in his last life, a few years later, it was the advent of the Thunder Dragon off-road vehicle he designed that made the overall quality of the military vehicles of the Celestial Empire go to a great level.
It can be said that he is the one who really made the greatest contribution to the state-owned military off-road vehicles.
This Liu Changshan, graduated from Tsinghua University in 1965, and then successively worked in FAW and FAW, during the work of the second automobile, he also participated in the development of the first generation of Dongfeng military off-road vehicles, at that time he was mainly responsible for the central inflatable system, and later because our material science is too poor, the materials used in many key parts can not be solved, and finally the central inflatable system has not been successfully developed, and the off-road vehicles in that area have also been scrapped.
After that, he worked as a test engineer for five years, and was sent by Dongfeng to the United States as a permanent representative for a long time.
Later, he served as the general manager of the import and export company of the Tianchao Automobile Industry Corporation, and then tied to the space bureau to complete the introduction of lark cars.
At the beginning of his descent into the sea, he did a period of import and export business, and soon relied on his previous connections to make a lot of money, but after having money, he turned back to the automobile industry where he had worked all his life.
He started a joint venture with a Malaysian businessman in Wuhan to build an automobile factory, but he was unlucky and caught up with the Asian financial crisis.
As a result, after a few years, all the money invested in it was wasted, and finally after a few years, it was really unbearable, and the factory was taken away by the bank.
This period of time is the time when Liu Changshan is most embarrassed, in his previous life, this old gentleman, relying on his spirit of not admitting defeat, gritted his teeth and mortgaged all the fixed assets to the bank, even his last place of residence, also mortgaged to the bank, and then asked an old friend for a loan.
This is the beginning of the research and development of the dragon, 06 years of the project, 07 years of initial results, 09 years is considered a great success, but unfortunately he later researched out the dragon off-road vehicle, although the surname can be very superior, can get rid of what warriors 108,000 miles, but the purchase of the opposite side does not seem to be much.
After learning that the military wanted to cooperate with him to design a new type of combat vehicle, Jin Xiaoqiang's first thought was this Liu Changshan, so as soon as he came into contact with Qian Longjiang and them, he sent someone to Wuhan to invite this Liu Changshan master.
At this time, Liu Changshan was the most embarrassed time, how could he refuse the olive branch extended by Jin Xiaoqiang?
And at this time, he was already in his fifties, and he was about to go to sixty, if he hadn't been forced to a dead end in his previous life and was in debt, I'm afraid he wouldn't have broken the boat like that.
So when Huayang Power invited him to participate in the development of a new military combat vehicle, he didn't think much about it, so he directly agreed.
After all, this research on a real military off-road is also his lifelong wish.
And the reason why Jin Xiaoqiang insisted on inviting him over so much was precisely because he took a fancy to the central inflatable system he developed, as well as his tuning skills for the chassis of the original Thunder, because in his opinion, Liu Changshan is an out-and-out chassis tuning master!
