Chapter 183: Coming to Germany
Austria, in the whole of Europe, is indeed a small country, but this small country actually has a first-class industry, which is the Steyr company.
This is also an old company, as early as 1864, Steyr Company was officially established, then called Josef and Franz Warnett Company, the company's original business was to produce rifles, which was an authentic arms company.
Later, in 1899, Daimler AG was founded as a subsidiary of the German Daimler Automotive Company DMG, and began to produce cars in Austria.
Of course, for the big countries in the East, many people have never heard of this country, or do not know about this company, but Qin Zhenhua is quite clear, don't look at it as an inconspicuous company, it still represents the top level in Europe.
Eggs can't be put in one basket, you have to find a relationship in many ways, this time to the UK, although the other party is welcome on the surface, in fact the vigilance is still very strong, now, they have verbally promised to authorize themselves, so what they do again, it is already within a reasonable and legal range.
Just now, Qin Zhenhua was talking to Commander Huang about this, if you want to create a qualified L7 105mm tank gun, you need a lot of technology, the British are unwilling, or they want to play tricks, you can also go to other countries to talk, the whole of Europe, there are many companies with technology.
Then, if you look at the members of your own inspection group, you will know that it is most appropriate to let the Second Machine Factory go over, because one of the main tasks of the Second Machine Factory is to make artillery, not only tank guns, all kinds of field artillery, howitzer cannons, etc., are the products of the Second Machine Factory, so these related technologies, the Second Machine Factory is also the most involved in the most, and it is the most professional.
There is a specialization in the art industry, and it is good to hand it over to a specialized person to do it, but the people who come out of the second machine factory may not be willing to go, who doesn't want to go to Germany, a first-class industrial power?
Then you have to use the method of agitation, anyway, they are just a small apprentice, they have no temper if they provoke them, if Commander Huang and Minister Zhu give a direct order, although they will also go, but the twisted melon is not sweet, now, they take the initiative to ask for help, of course it is the best.
Watching the two of them leave and go back to make relevant preparations, Commander Huang continued with a smile on his face: "Next, we have to think about going to Germany." Zhenhua, do you think it's possible for us to get back a few of their 1500-horsepower diesel engines? ”
With the British 1200-horsepower diesel engine, and then the German 1500-horsepower diesel engine, these advanced powers are placed in front of their own research, it must be beneficial.
Qin Zhenhua shook his head helplessly, this difficulty is much more difficult than the L7 105mm tank gun, the experience of coming to the UK has made everyone understand that people will never give the most advanced things to themselves, it is precisely because they have 120mm tank guns, so when they sell us 105mm tank guns, they will not have too many concerns.
We want to buy advanced, unless it is a direct pure import, not the introduction of technology, they may also agree in order to sell money, but if you want to buy technology directly, it is almost impossible.
Moreover, a very important prerequisite for playing this trick in the UK is that he can speak English, and when he should speak it, he will directly scare and act as a stunned young man, but it is different when he goes to Germany, he doesn't know German, and the translator can't easily translate the words of a hairy young man like himself.
"If there is an opportunity, I would like to see that we can introduce the full set of Leopard 1 engine technology, and I don't think the plan to introduce civilian engines and then strengthen them will not work." Qin Zhenhua said.
When he was on the plane, it had already been discussed, Zhang Baolin was an engine expert at that time, but Qin Zhenhua still insisted on his own point of view, what is military is military, and what is civilian is civilian, and if it is introduced, it will be converted into civilian, this is no problem, but if it is introduced into civilian and strengthened into military, hehehe, this joke is very funny.
"Let's see the opportunity." Commander Huang said that after all, the army is only a use unit, and it is the Fifth Machine Department that really has the right to speak, and Commander Huang is not qualified to make a decision on the introduction of engines.
Watching Commander Huang leave, Qin Zhenhua also shook his head helplessly, his status was still too low, and it was impossible to influence these projects at all.
However, since I made a bet with that Zhang Baolin, after this inspection, I will put the research and development of the engine on the agenda when I go back!
However, the development of engines is the most time-consuming, and the last time I was on an airplane, I heard that they were developing a 720 horsepower engine? If this engine is mature, it can be used, although the power is insufficient, the new second-generation tank project can be improvised. Well, take the time to communicate with this Zhang Baolin.
……
On the cushion of the soft bus, Qin Zhenhua looked out the window, looking at the exotic customs, they had already left the United Kingdom, and now they had entered Germany, and it was a different taste to take the car to their destination.
Munich is an important city in Germany, Qin Zhenhua was impressed, of course, the beer hall rioted, from an industrial point of view, Munich is also quite powerful, the manufacturer of the Leopard 2 tank, the Klaus company, the engine manufacturer MTU company, are all in Munich.
"Woo, woo!" A truck honked its horn from behind, and then, like a gallop, chased up from behind, the red front of the car first appeared next to the bus, when he saw this car, Qin Zhenhua couldn't help but sigh.
"Look at other people's trucks, and then look at our old liberation." Qin Zhenhua sighed: "This kind of car has almost two hundred horsepower!" ”
Qin Zhenhua's eyes were full of envy, at this time, the car was full of goods, and it was able to overtake from behind, indicating that it was full of power, although Qin Zhenhua was not a truck fan, he had also read this information.
Even if you only look at the side, you can know that it is the most famous Mercedes-Benz heavy truck in Germany, codenamed NG73, a new generation of heavy trucks, using a 192-horsepower V6 diesel engine, and the architecture of the vehicle is also quite advanced.
Look at the country again, the main force is still the old liberation of technology in the fifties and sixties, only 90 horsepower, and now at this speed, it is not qualified to eat ash behind others.
"Wow, it's a woman!" At this time, the other party is overtaking, the heavy truck and the bus are driving side by side, from the glass, you can see the cab there, long golden hair, fair face, high nose, full lips, chest in the seat belt, actually a female driver?
It's unimaginable that in this strange country, women are the same as men!
Seeing that the heavy truck left his field of vision, Qin Zhenhua's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but say to Wang Erzhu, who was sitting beside him: "Our first machine factory, if we can introduce this kind of Mercedes-Benz heavy truck, it will definitely usher in a new period of development." ”
This idea came out of Qin Zhenhua's mind in an instant, but only this idea that came out of the moment continued to take root, and in the end, it finally blossomed and came to fruition.
But now, when Qin Zhenhua said it, all he ushered in was good-natured laughter.
"The introduction of heavy trucks is a matter of the Ministry of Machinery." Ma Panshan, who was sitting in front, opened his mouth and said: "We belong to the Fifth Machine Department, this is a matter of different systems, you are still young, and it is normal that you don't understand these." ”
Ma Panshan originally had good intentions and explained to Qin Zhenhua, but this explanation made Qin Zhenhua dissatisfied.
"Because it's not the same department, we can only watch that there is no rice in our pot, so we just wait?" When Qin Zhenhua heard Ma Panshan say this, he immediately asked rhetorically.
