Siheyuan: My Northeastern Farmhouse

Chapter 226 I can’t do it without you!

That's right, after another week, the column of the 2-ton hydraulic press was finally successfully cast tonight!

Shijingshan Iron and Steel Plant also specially brought in the hospital's X-ray machine to take a look at the column. The casting this time was perfect, and both the stiffness, strength and tensile force were within the theoretical calculation range!

This means that the manufacturing of 2-ton hydraulic presses can begin!

"Oh~oh!" Director Zhou and Li Youshan hugged each other excitedly, with tears in their eyes. All the engineers and master workers in the workshop also cheered, throwing their hats or cotton-padded clothes!

Director Zhou was just about to tell Secretary Huang about the exciting news when he heard that the four-cylinder diesel engine here had also been assembled! Testing has also started!

Factory Director Zhou wished he could grow two wings and fly directly to the test workshop, constantly urging Secretary Miao to drive faster!

As a result, the first manufactured engine was driven away by Gu Weijun.

Director Zhou only regrets that he came a step too late! Stomping his feet angrily, how could Gu Weijun, a little brat, drive away with the new engine?

I haven’t even taken a look yet!

Director Zhou arranged for Master Zhao to continue taking his apprentice to see if he could assemble another one. On the other hand, he took the machine repair shop director Liu Feng and Master Liang to discuss the mass production of this engine!

When asked this question, Master Liang smiled bitterly, "Director Zhou, it's not that we are unwilling to do our best, but the accuracy required for this engine designed by Gu Gong is too high!"

"If we want to do mass production, one of the reasons is that our machine tools are not good enough. Just relying on a few of us old guys and their apprentices to do it by hand, we can't produce many sets in a year?"

"Secondly, if mass production is carried out, it will definitely rely mainly on machine tool processing, and the accuracy of the parts will definitely decrease!"

"So, if you go up there, can you ask for some better machine tools for our machine repair shop?"

"Our machine tools are quite old!"

This is a problem. Director Zhou pondered for a while and asked Liu Feng, "Liu Feng, go back and talk to the technicians and masters in the factory about what equipment needs to be invested. Give me a list!"

"I'll go to the Metallurgical Department and the First Machinery Department at dawn tomorrow!"

"I will definitely get your equipment back!"

Liu Feng nodded in agreement. On the other side, Master Zhao regretfully told Director Zhou that the remaining parts could not assemble a new engine! Tomorrow morning at the earliest! If we follow the parameters designed to take care of the Wei army, it will take at least a week!

This news made Director Zhou very unhappy. He looked at Liu Feng and suddenly asked: "Liu Feng, are the tractors and agricultural machines that were previously sent to Hongxing Commune for field testing ready?"

"When will it be over?"

Liu Feng paused the communication with Master Liang and turned around, "Director, we have produced a total of 4 tractors, 2 rotary tillers, 2 seeders, and 2 water pumps. We have already contacted the Red Star Commune. On the 4th, I’ll go there early tomorrow morning!”

Director Zhou said to Qian Weichang seriously: "Scientist Qian, the tractors and agricultural machines we have produced are about to go to work in the fields!"

"This is our first time using it in the field, so we feel unsure!"

"After all, it was just designed and not put into practice!"

"Do you think it would be better for the designer Gu Weijun to follow along?"

Secretary Huang smiled and said nothing, but Qian Wei heard it and realized it made sense! For the first field test, it is necessary to have a designer come to the site! He immediately agreed, "Director Zhou is right!"

"When Gu Weijun comes back, I will tell him to stay in the countryside during the spring plowing period!"

“If there are problems with the design, they can be recorded in time!”

"After all, the users are farmer brothers. If they say it's good, it's really good!"

Director Zhou is satisfied! You little bastard, how dare you steal my spotlight! Find something for your boy to do!

Gu Weijun came back from a trip, and although he still received negative comments along the way, for example: The car body shook when he accelerated a little. Although the speed increased, it almost knocked him over. The chassis was so bad! And the fourth-speed gearbox is obviously stuck!

But this engine is definitely very good! The power is very powerful! Full of push-back feeling!

Well, the next step is to get a five-speed transmission and Madison independent suspension!

Gu Weijun, who jumped out of the jeep, was so excited that he didn't notice the teasing looks from Director Zhou and Secretary Huang. He first reported the good news to Qian Weichang, "Teacher, the engine is running very stable after the current test. It accelerates quickly! It has strong power!" "

“The only thing now is that the transmission and the chassis don’t match well!” A smile appeared on Qian Wei’s round face. He, as a student, was beginning to show his talent. He felt like a grown-up child in our family. He replied with a smile: “Slowly Come on, don't be in a hurry!" If you can run around smoothly and come back, at least this engine is pretty good after initial testing!

"However, it is not advisable to draw conclusions prematurely. This engine still has a lot to test!"

Then he called to the two masters Liang and Zhao, "Master Liang, Master Zhao, please help to remove the engine!"

"No! Teacher," Gu Weijun hurriedly stopped Qian Weichang, "Teacher, I am a designer and I happen to be driving a car. What kind of test can be better than my own testing?"

"Let this engine continue to be put on my Jeep and continue to be tested."

"Please ask Masters Liang and Zhao to process a few more units for operation tests and fatigue tests!"

Qian Wei heard it and thought, well, that makes sense! You make sense, and Director Zhou also makes sense. It seems that my students’ consciousness is still very high! Isn't this just right?

"Well, tomorrow the factory's tractors and agricultural machinery will go to the Red Star Commune, and you will go with them!"

"You are a designer, and you just happen to record and evaluate the actual measurements of tractors and agricultural machinery!"

"Ah~" Gu Weijun was speechless. When did the fat old man become so good at criticizing others? Is this smooth pole climbing so neatly?

At this time, Gu Weijun noticed the snickering of the factory director Zhou Zhou and Secretary Huang next to him, and his mind turned. There must be something I don't know about.

Gu Weijun rolled his eyes slightly and spoke loudly and enthusiastically to Liu Feng: "Director Liu, what time should we set off from the factory tomorrow?"

"Now that I'm going to the countryside, I want to learn more from you!"

"If my teacher hadn't reminded me, I would have forgotten about the field test of tractors and agricultural machinery! I'm sorry!"

Liu Feng's eyes immediately drifted towards Director Zhou, and he replied with the same smile: "Gong Gu, you're welcome! You are the designer of these machines, and you are busy testing the four-cylinder engine! "

“It’s normal to forget when you’re busy!”

"We have to get up early tomorrow and set off at 6 o'clock!"

"That's no problem!" Gu Weijun agreed, patting his chest and at the same time understood what the problem was?

Good guy, didn't you just steal the engine for the first time? I'm still a designer and developer, and this week the factory director's little tricks came into play immediately! high! Really high! Director Zhou is one of the smartest people Gu Weijun has ever seen!

It seems that I can't hold the thigh, so I have to hold it!

Gu Weijun forced a smile and said, "Director Zhou, let me tell you, the engine I designed is really good!"

"Responsive and dynamic!"

"Come on, come as the co-pilot and I'll show you how to feel it!"

"Or, do you drive directly? This will give you a better experience!"

Director Zhou smiled slightly, and then Secretary Huang whispered, "Okay! The position of office director is definitely suitable! At least the level of observation is no problem!"

Then he pretended to shirk it, "Hey, no, no, this isn't appropriate. Let Scientist Qian and Professor Wu experience it together first!"

"You designers need to feel your own results!"

Yes, my guess was correct. Director Zhou must have contributed to the fact that I was wearing small shoes. No wonder he is the director of the factory! Still as stable as a mountain!

Gu Weijun's smile became even brighter and he strongly invited Director Zhou to get in the car. Only then, under the persuasion of everyone, did Director Zhou drive and experience the pushing feeling on his back!

After coming down, Director Zhou said "Okay!" three times in a row!

Then he stared at Gu Weijun with a stern look, "Comrade Gu Weijun, can the whole vehicle be designed?"
