Chapter 604: Equipment Upgrades

However, in the face of Qin Feng's proposal, no one answered, whether it was Song Lao or Tu Lao.

"Qin Feng, this time we have been rewarded by the central government, and the bonus given to you is to go down to the financial office of the factory to receive it." Tu Lao said: "It's not easy for our factory to get to this point. ”

Think about it a few years ago, when the reform just began, the factory was also confused with an uncertain future, we didn't know where the road was, at that time there were a lot of side jobs, built motorcycles, produced washing machines, and now Chengdu, there are many industrial parts are flying brands, but in the end, at the insistence of Tu Lao, or positioned on the military products, after that, it is the ups and downs of the J-7M, and it has been until now, it is really not easy.

In the past few years, everyone has seen the good days of Cheng Fei, and during the New Year, there are so many New Year's goods, which are also done by all the employees of the entire factory.

Tu Lao's words contain deep meaning.

Of course, Qin Feng may not understand it now, but in the future, he will understand.

"If you want to talk about good projects, we still have a lot of them." Tu Lao said: "Qin Feng, you should have heard of our cooperation with McDonnell Douglas, right?" ”

Hearing Tu Lao's words, Qin Feng was stunned for a moment: "Cooperation with McDonnell Douglas Company, isn't that a matter of Shanghai?" What does it have to do with us? ”

There are a lot of stories involved, Shanghai was originally developing the Yunshi passenger aircraft, but now, the aviation department has given up this project and decided to cooperate with McDonnell Douglas to produce McDonnell Douglas 82 passenger aircraft, which is a big project in the civil aviation industry, after all, McDonnell Douglas is a well-known large company in the world.

Qin Feng has heard of some of them, but Qin Feng definitely doesn't know that Factory 132 actually cooperates with McDonnell Douglas Company?

"We have a cost advantage here, so our company has also begun to get involved in the field of international civil aircraft subcontract production, and we have signed a contract with McDonnell Douglas Company of the United States for the subcontract production of MD80 heads. We carry out this kind of production in full accordance with the information they provide, which is also a breakthrough for us. ”

Factory 132 was originally for the production of military fighters, but at the same time, it also wanted to diversify its development, and produce whatever could make money, especially because it had a lot of experience in exporting to foreign countries, and the company's production began to be in line with international standards.

Many large aviation companies will not completely produce aircraft in their own factories, but subcontract, because the labor cost in the Western world is very high, and the production in other countries can save costs, even if it is added to freight, it will be cheaper, of course, as long as the final assembly is in McDonnell Douglas, then the aircraft is produced by McDonnell Douglas, and it will not involve the most head-scratching airworthiness certificate problem.

It is only the beginning that the other party will process the machine head, and in the future, there may be more subcontracts, and the factory is now at full capacity, and it has not stopped production even during the New Year, and has been working hard.

Qin Feng nodded: "Yes, this is a gratifying progress, we can only produce fighter jets before, and now we can also build passenger planes, in this case, our factories and the like will also be transformed, right?" ”

Passenger planes are big guys, the need for larger plants, all kinds of stamping equipment are larger, to undertake such a task, but also a change to the factory equipment.

"Yes, we have vacated our automobile mold manufacturing plant, and at the same time, we are just starting the technical improvement project of automobile mold manufacturing, and we will also make efforts in terms of civilian products." Tu Lao said.

If you want to say that Cheng Fei produces cars, it is unheard of, even in later generations, some people proposed that Cheng Fei build cars, which is enough to kill what Dongfeng, FAW, Chang'an and the like, Cheng Fei relies on his own spirit, and is definitely able to build a car that makes the Chinese people proud. Of course, we didn't make cars, but we did build motorcycles.

However, Cheng Fei really didn't involve this business, but Cheng Fei has a subordinate subsidiary that is engaged in automobile mold manufacturing.

In the past, there was no need for molds to make cars, as long as the workers held hammers and knocked on them, they could knock out the first Jiefang brand cars, but if they wanted large-scale industrial production, they must have molds.

What is a mold used for? For example, the car door, according to the shape of the door, make the corresponding shape on both sides, and then, one side is placed below, the middle is put on the steel plate, and the top is pressed down with a hydraulic press, and the two sides are squeezed, and a door comes out.

This kind of efficiency is absolutely very high, of course, this mold must also be precise, if the mold has any defects, such as multiple holes and the like, then the stamping out is waste.

Cheng Fei is one of the first factories in China to start making automobile molds, and now, they took this opportunity to decide to upgrade their mold manufacturing center, and then they can become a leader in this area, after all, Tu Lao has been abroad, has seen foreign assembly lines, and is full of praise for those, they do not have the funds to import everything abroad, and they can also develop slowly.

For example, making molds can drive the progress of the entire country's automobile industry.

Qin Feng heard Tu Lao's narration, and he was also quite sighed, and at this moment, Song Lao spoke again: "Lao Tu, don't just think about this, I said, a lot of the equipment in our 132 factory is already old, and you also have to think of replacing these equipment, especially, to increase the number of CNC machine tools, we have adopted paperless design, come to you, it will not be like Jianhong 7, the three-dimensional design drawings, and then converted into two-dimensional drawings." ”

Song Lao came here, of course, not only to coordinate the J-7III project, but also to lay the foundation for the J-10.

The design work was handed over to the 611 Institute, and the production was placed in the 132 factory, and the current situation is, does the 132 factory have this ability?

After all, the processing of the third-generation machine is very different from the second-generation machine, and many parts must be more accurate.

When the project was first to be established, Song Lao took over the financial power, but there were too many things to be studied, and some were allocated in various places, and there was not much left.

Factory 132 is also very profitable anyway, and Song Lao does not plan to allocate funds for their equipment upgrades, let them upgrade them themselves, anyway, they will also use them to produce other aircraft.

"Old Song, do you know? Some people are scolding you for being skinned. Tu Lao said with a smile: "We have imported a batch of new equipment with the help of the production head for McDonnell Douglas Company this time, let's go, let's take a look." ”

Old Song's face did not change color, someone must be scolding him behind his back, but for the research and development of Xinji, why not be a bad guy himself!
