Chapter 304: Visit
Li Zhao felt very depressed here, but the leader was not calm, and after Li Zhao and the three left, he directly took the information brought by Li Zhao to find someone to demonstrate.
First of all, about CNC machine tools, he directly found experts in CNC machine tools and showed the structural diagram of CNC machine tools drawn by Li Zhao to the other party.
After looking at it for a while, he asked directly: "This picture is from Li Zhao of Hongxing Rolling Mill, right?" When the leader heard this, his eyes were staring directly, thinking that Li Zhao would not have announced this drawing, right?
He asked, "How do you know, it's hard for you to see this drawing, but Li Zhao said that this is a design he hasn't finished yet?" The expert saw the leader's expression and said: "How could I have seen this, but last year Li Zhao took out a whole series of machine tool drawings, this design his style is too obvious, the overall structure is seamless, and all the matching gaps are much smaller than the last series, which no one else can design." When the leader heard this, he asked: "When did he design a series of machine tools, how did I not know?" When the expert heard this, he also knew that this matter was confidential, but for the level of leadership, he knew that there was no problem, so he said: "Now that series of machine tools are still out of detail, isn't your military factory in the capital producing hydraulic presses?" That's one of his machine tool series, and it's almost finished now, right? The leader was also shocked when he heard this, and asked, "You mean that the hydraulic press was designed by him?" The leader was also shocked, he didn't know what was going on, but it was normal, now this project is really in a state of secrecy, there are really not many people who know about it, and the leaders of the military industry department are not involved in this project at all.
At this time, the expert continued: "What's this, didn't you build a material factory? Although I don't know the specific situation, when I went to demonstrate Li Zhao's machinery that day, he said that there was no problem with the material, and I happened to have the metal type brochure of the material factory here, and I understood what was going on at a glance. At this time, the leader asked: "Okay, I really don't know about this matter, so if you let you manufacture this machine tool, how long will it take to achieve it, and how much will the research cost be?" Looking at the drawings in his hand, the expert said: "With all due respect, this drawing is estimated by our entire team to be impossible to complete within ten years." There is a material factory for metal materials, and the problem is not big, but the biggest problem here is this computer, which requires at least five million or more computing power, and our team optimistically estimates that it will take ten years, and it is under the condition that there is no upper limit on research funding. ”
"The research in this is too difficult, not only to have theoretical support, but also to need material support, but also to require a large number of electronic software and hardware talents, IMHO, this requires at least several research institutes to work together to complete, not at all we can solve a team. The computer side has been solved, but the problem is only half completed, here is a five-axis five-linkage machine tool, just the mechanical part, enough for us to study for several years. ”
"If everything is thoroughly studied, and then come up with mature products, at least we need to give us a few related research institutes, mainly involving machinery, electronics, materials, computers, etc., as for the funding, at least hundreds of millions of dollars a year, it is best to set no upper limit, otherwise many tests may not be carried out due to financial constraints." There is a reason why these studies cost a lot of money, that is, a silicon wafer manufacturing requires a lot of equipment, and the first step is to build a wafer production plant, otherwise what to study?
The second is the lithography machine, if you want to achieve a chip with large computing power, you need to develop the lithography machine to the corresponding extent, so there are many places to spend money, and it is not possible to achieve it with a small amount of investment.
And that's not all, there are other things, such as controllers, memory, inputs and outputs, etc., so there are a lot of things that need to be studied.
Li Zhaoyao's research institute of non-metallic materials is to study wafers, and the electronics research institute is to study lithography machines and chips.
When the leader heard what the expert said, his heart also sank to the bottom, without him Li Zhao said that this research needs hundreds of millions of dollars every year, which seems to be true, then the other things he brought are probably also true.
Saying goodbye to the specialists, the leader went to the Air Force department again, and there are also proficient personnel here, although they may not be very good technically, but they understand the principles.
After seeing the structural drawings of the turbofan engine, especially noticing the principle of Li Zhao's remarks on the side, this person was not calm and asked: "Who designed this, can it be designed like this, but is it possible to achieve this?" This design is too sophisticated. At this time, the leader continued: "I know that it is very precise, and there is also an aircraft design drawing, you can take a look at it." When he looked at the parameters of the plane, he said directly: "Leader, you won't be deceived, right?" How can this kind of aircraft be able to be studied by us, even if it is Da Mao, they will not want to study it in ten years. Several of our aircraft factories are not capable of studying this, and what third-generation fighters are still marked, I'm afraid it's not wishful thinking, as far as the thrust of this transmitter is concerned, with our research capabilities, it is estimated that it will not be possible within ten years. ”
"As for research funding, we don't know where to start, so what's the use of giving more research funding?" After listening to it, the leader directly had an urge to scold his mother, and the previous one also gave the possibility of a study, and this one directly came to a conclusion that he couldn't even start researching, how unconfident this should be.
However, this person also said the current situation, aircraft factories are basically just in contact with aircraft production, research has not been long, and even the current first-generation fighter has not yet been studied, where is the ability to study the third-generation aircraft?
Just like the White Elephant Country, a light third-generation aircraft has not been fully mass-produced for 40 years, you must know that it is a reference to the previous model, and which researcher in this era dares to say that he is studying the third-generation aircraft?
This is also a chicken thief, hearing that the leader wants them to take over the research, he directly has no idea where to start, he really doesn't dare to take this research, without him, this research is too difficult, just look at those data, is it the work they dare to take?
It's 108,000 miles away from their current research project. Seeing this situation, the leader did not plan to ask anything else, and came directly to the Beijing Military Factory, and after meeting the factory director and chief engineer, he directly handed over the drawings of a high-power diesel engine that Li Zhao had not completed, and the chief engineer took a look and said in surprise: "Li Zhao is preparing a new engine again?" I didn't even say a word. At this time, the leader was already a little puzzled and asked, "How can you directly conclude that Li Zhao's design is at this time?" The chief engineer said at this time: "Don't you know that the 700-horsepower engine in front of us was designed by Li Zhao?" It's the engine of the 45-ton tank that is being studied now, and when we reported it, didn't the director say who the designer was? Why doesn't the leader seem to know about this, shouldn't this be? At this time, the factory director was embarrassed and said: "It seems that the report is directly reported to the team leader, and several of our current major projects are led by the project team, and they are not the task of the military industrial system." That Li Zhao also participated as the deputy chief engineer of the rolling mill, and the current material plant is the result of the project team. Don't mind, leader, we thought the team leader would greet you, so we didn't report to the leader, forgive me. At this time, the factory director was sweating profusely, and they really forgot to report to the superior department, and the superior supervisor thought that this engine was developed by the military factory, so he did not delve into it, and wanted to wait for the tank research to be commended together.
This is also impossible, after all, Li Zhao's current projects are really not led by the military industrial system, they are projects led by the Ministry of Industry, but they just want to borrow the power of the military industrial system, and they just say hello to the military industrial system.
It is not clear what kind of military industrial system is being studied, and when Li Zhao designed the engine, he directly succeeded at one time, and no additional funds were spent at all, so the leaders in charge of the military industry did not know what was going on.
At this time, the leader said: "Tell me about the 700-horsepower engine, I don't know the specific situation, and whether you have the ability to study this engine, Li Zhao has already completed part of it?" Then the chief engineer told the truth of the matter, and finally for Li Zhao, who had only completed a small part of the drawings, the chief engineer said: "Leader, you think too highly of you, even if you have Li Zhao's 700-horsepower engine as a reference, but if you want to complete his engine of more than 1,200 horsepower, we dare not say that we can complete it." I have a rough look, the design is very exquisite, and a lot of parts have been added, and we really don't dare to take on this task. At this time, the leader asked: "You don't want to tear down the stage because you know each other, right?" ”
