Chapter 484 Waterproof Generator

Lu Changhua followed his mother to prepare dinner, and Wang Yao came back.

At the dinner table, the family is enjoying themselves.

As soon as they put down their bowls and chopsticks, Zhao Ya and Hu Le barged in.

Now Xiao Nuomi and Sheng Yu couldn't sit still.

The four of them hugged each other and ran out.

"It's dark, you four, be careful."

"Hey, let's play at the door."

Usually, there are not many vehicles passing by Lu's house, so there is no danger, and Lu Changhua is relieved.

Wang Yao still ran out, seeing that they were indeed at the gate of the compound, and then returned to the house.

"I'll go to the group tomorrow."

Lu Changhua whispered to Wang Yao.

"What's the matter?"

If there is something to do in the group, it is actually a matter between the husband and wife.

"I want the factory to produce something."

"What?"

"dynamo."

"dynamo?"

Wang Yao frowned.

"Isn't there a generator?"

"The generator I'm talking about is not the small generator on the tractor, but a large diesel generator."

"You are this?"

Wang Yao became worried again.

Changhua was nervous some time ago. He stockpiled bread, stockpiled firewood, and asked the group to stockpile coal.

She endured all this.

It can be used anyway.

Then it stopped for a while.

What's wrong with this?

Sick again?

She now also thinks that Lu Changhua is a little neurotic and too sensitive.

"I did some research and found that there is a huge demand for large diesel generator sets in the market, and the engine factory has the ability to modify the engine and produce it without much modification. This is not only the need of the market, but also the enterprise development needs.”

Lu Changhua tilted his head and looked at his wife, and asked, "What do you think?"

"It makes sense."

Wang Yao thought about it seriously and said: "The tractor factory has developed a larger tractor, and it has invested a lot of research and development expenses. Our product line is indeed single, and we need to add more profitable products."

"There is indeed a strong market demand for the generator sets you mentioned. Well, I will have a meeting to study it when I get back tomorrow."

"I'm applying to participate. This matter is urgent. The market demand is changing rapidly, so there can be no delay."

"I see."

Wang Yao glanced at him and said jokingly: "What's the matter? Can't stand idle any longer? Are you going to participate in business management?"

"I won't participate. I'm just giving you some strategic advice."

"Yo yo yo! You really know how to talk."

The couple had an in-depth exchange that night.

Release all the stress from these days.

The next day, the two took Wu Yue to work together.

The Tractor Group suddenly received a notice and all middle-level and above cadres went to the headquarters for a meeting.

Chen Liguo felt puzzled.

He didn't receive any advance notice.

It appears that things are serious.

As soon as they entered the venue, they saw not only Wang Yao sitting on the rostrum, but also the big boss.

Now, the directors and workshop directors of each factory have become honest.

In a large group, there is no one who is not angry with the boss.

If you don't say you're scared, that's just bragging.

The big boss has an unstoppable power.

See everyone is here.

Wang Yao spoke first.

"The meeting was held today, and the incident happened a little hastily."

She paused briefly and continued: "The chairman has a very keen insight into the market. He has something to say to everyone. Comrades welcome."

Wang Yao took the lead in applauding.

The scene immediately became lively.

It is already very far away for the chairman to discuss market issues in person.

It was so mysterious today, it turned out to be about the market.

Some people breathed a sigh of relief.

Some people are extremely excited.

Lu Changhua observed everyone's expressions on the podium.

Although it is only a rough idea, it can still be seen how popular people are to me.

"Comrades."

"Today, I'm going to talk about market issues."

“Can the Tractor Group only produce tractors?”

"In recent years, our group has developed and produced many models of tractors, and the market response has been very good. This market still has great potential."

"However, the R&D expenses we invested at the same time were also very high. This resulted in a decrease in revenue and an increase in expenses."

"And each of our factories still has a large production margin."

"For this reason, a question arises."

"Can we develop and produce other profitable products related to this while producing tractors?"

"To increase the income of the group?"

The people below nodded.

Sitting beside Lu Changhua, Chen Liguo also pondered secretly.

What the chairman said is indeed correct.

You can’t just cling to the tractor, you should also consider other products.

Especially for factories that supply tractors, the directors of each factory began to think deeply.

"Today's meeting is not a simple lecture, but a collision of ideas. If you have any opinions, you can feel free to raise them."

As soon as this remark came out, there were discussions below.

The meeting place was in chaos.

Chen Liguo discussed with the boss and his wife in a low voice, picked up the microphone and said, "I know that many people don't want to talk, but today every factory has to speak. The main thing is to talk. It is suitable for us to develop products." Office staff Take the microphone and hand it to the hands of the first row.

Whether they like it or not, the directors of each factory have to speak.

All of a sudden, all kinds of strange ideas popped up.

Someone actually proposed the idea of ​​small and medium-sized generator sets.

The reason is that our electricity has not been enough in recent years.

There are problems with agricultural electricity supply in many remote areas.

hindered the development of agricultural production.

Someone suggested improvements.

The biggest obstacle hindering production and life in rural areas is the problem of motivation.

The south has less land and more mountains.

Large machinery cannot carry out operations, and only small machinery has room for actual combat.

If there is such a thing that is not only a generator, but also a water pump, and a power source that can drive other machines, it will be a good helper for farmers in the south.

As soon as these words came out, the venue fell into silence.

Because what they said is right.

Lu Changhua's original intention was that through this conference, the idea of ​​producing his own generators would come out naturally.

In this way, the idea is the wisdom of the collective, not the blind command of the boss.

Who knew someone had come up with the idea of ​​a three-in-one power machine.

And this idea is really good.

It is not difficult to add a generator and a pump to an engine.

The engine itself is the source of power.

This requires adding two items to the engine to transform it into a three-in-one machine.

Wang Yao is very satisfied with this idea.

She also didn't expect that a conference would come up with this idea.

It seems that this thinking collision conference really needs to be held more frequently.

"Comrades, the idea of ​​three-in-one power source is a good one."

"If, I'm talking about if, this power source is installed on a tractor. In other words, the tractor's engine is not only an engine, driving the tractor to move, it can also be parked in the field to generate electricity and pump water, and it can also drive other machines to run. , will such a multi-functional tractor become more popular?”

Lu Changhua expanded the original three-in-one power source to include engines.In this way, this machine can be used all over the world.

Chen Liguo's eyes lit up!
Oops, that’s a good idea.

For a while, the venue started talking again.

For tractor manufacturers.

It's not good to hang on to too many other functions on the engine.

Because the more functions there are, the higher the failure rate will be.

The cost is also higher.

Such a versatile tractor won't come cheap.

Many functions are not available.

For example, some people only need a tractor to transport in rural areas, as long as the car pulls more and runs faster.

There is no other use for generating electricity, pumping water, or driving other machines.

Instead, these functions are an unnecessary burden.

When the price is high, the sales volume in the market will naturally decrease.

This opinion has also been raised.

"Tractors with multiple uses must be the future development direction."

Lu Changhua made the final decision.

"When we sell, we can make optional equipment."

"What do you mean? It means that the tractor has a variety of functions, but when it is sold, only the basic model is sold."

"If customers need other functional accessories such as power generation, water pumping, etc., they can pay extra to install them."

"In this way, first of all, we meet the basic needs of farmers. If some people need electricity, they will install power generation equipment. If they need water, they will install pumping equipment. If they need power output, they will install output equipment. Everyone gets what they need. "

"it is good!"

Whoa whoa whoa!
There was thunderous applause.

Many people secretly admire him.

He is our boss after all.

The difficulties that everyone considered were easily solved with just one sentence in front of him.

God can't let someone be the boss!
"Multi-functional tractors are our development direction. However, these separate generators and pumps will remain the mainstream of the market for a long time due to their simple structure, low failure rate, and long service life. Therefore, we It is possible to develop multi-function machines while producing these single-function devices, and it is safe to walk on a few legs!"

After saying a few words, everyone nodded.

After this meeting, Changhe Tractor Group determined its future technical route and development strategy.

The tractor takes the route of multifunctional technology.

And those single-function products with simple structures are the focus of recent development.

For a while, all departments of the group were busy.

The motor factory was relocated from Soviet Russia.

It has always been a factory that provides small generators for tractors.

But they have a lot of technical reserves for various types of generators.

After receiving the task of developing a generator, the technical office immediately took out the reserve drawings.

In just half a month, with the cooperation of the engine factory, a prototype was produced.

In fact, a diesel generator is a product with a diesel engine and a generator installed.

However, this engine has a single function, which is to drive the generator.

Generally, car generators are DC.

And the TV from the generator is DC or AC, depending on whether it is a DC generator or an AC generator.

And the generator they produced is AC.

After adding a booster and a voltage regulator, 220 volt alternating current is generated.

After Lu Changhua came to inspect, he requested to add waterproof and moisture-proof functions.

It is required that the generator can still generate electricity underwater.

Such requirements are too harsh.

But this is not difficult for these experts.

Not only did they raise the intake and exhaust of the engine by more than two meters, they also raised the fuel tank opening.

The generator part is waterproofed.

A waterproof cover was made and a fan was added to the generator to dissipate heat.

The air intake has also been raised.

The somewhat ugly generator was hoisted into a two-meter-deep pool and then started up again.

Directly conduct underwater operation experiments.

For a time, such a waterproof generator attracted many people's interest.
