Manufacturing Empire in the Valley

Chapter 1041 Three-cylinder Engine

"That's good, Master Wang. I hope you can strictly control the main structure of the factory building. You must build the factory stronger. It snows heavily here every winter. If the main structure of the factory building is not strong enough, the future You may be crushed by the heavy snow, and you will not be able to escape if there is an accident."

"Deputy Factory Manager Chen, don't worry, we will never adulterate the materials we use, and we will have strict requirements on the workmanship. As long as you fail the acceptance inspection, you will be punished as you like. I have absolutely no complaints."

Chen Fanghua nodded. Just as he was about to speak to another contractor, he saw Niu Xiaoqiang standing aside and listening.

Chen Fanghua hurriedly left several contractors behind, and said with a smile on his face: "Secretary Niu is here, what instructions do you have?"

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled and waved his hands: "The key links you mentioned just now coincide with me. I have nothing to instruct. If I have to say it, then I will remind Deputy Factory Manager Chen, please come to the construction site. You must pay attention to safety when you are working as a supervisor, otherwise if something happens to you, my third sister and I will not be able to explain it to you."

Hearing Niu Xiaoqiang's joke, Chen Fanghua scratched his head in embarrassment: "Secretary Niu is really humorous."

Several contractors had met Niu Xiaoqiang and knew what position Niu Xiaoqiang had in the factory, so they all came over to say hello to Niu Xiaoqiang.

Niu Xiaoqiang exchanged pleasantries with everyone, and then continued to inspect the next construction site.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Niu Xiaoqiang returned to his office.He took out a large stack of documents from the safe and analyzed them while flipping through them.

These materials are all patented technologies that Packard Motor Company has applied for, and Niu Xiaoqiang plans to select some for cooperation with Nanfeng Automobile Factory.

Packard Motor Company has signed a cooperation agreement with Nanfeng Automobile Factory. Now that the contract has been signed, Niu Xiaoqiang must of course fulfill his obligations.

He has a good understanding of the technology and manufacturing level of Nanfeng Automobile Factory, so he is very serious when selecting technologies, lest the technology he provides is too high-end, and Nanfeng Automobile Factory cannot transform the technology into products, which would be too funny up.

Niu Xiaoqiang knew very well what Nanfeng Automobile Factory was looking for, and the other party was most interested in automobile engine technology.At present, the relatively high-end automobile engines in the world are roughly divided into two types, one is V6 engine and the other is V8 engine.

Derived from this are the V12 engine and the V16 engine. The former is the basis of the latter. As long as you have a thorough understanding of the previous two engine technologies, it will be relatively easy to realize the latter V12 and V16 engines.

After careful consideration, Niu Xiaoqiang finally decided to provide the V6 engine technology developed by Packard Motor Company to Nanfeng Motor Factory.

The V6 engine technology developed by Packard Motor Company is at the upper-middle level in the world, not very good.This is because what they really value is the V8 engine technology, so they are not so concerned about the V6 engine technology.This result is caused by the concept of American customers.

Americans generally prefer high-power cars. Fuel consumption is not their primary consideration when buying a car, but power is.Packard Motor Company is also in order to cater to the preferences of local customers, so it will pay more attention to the research and development of V8 engines.

In the field of V8 engines, Packard Motor Company still has a deep foundation.It is no exaggeration to say that if they simply compare V8 engine technology, they are not inferior to international auto giants such as Ford and General Motors.

Niu Xiaoqiang carefully studied the V6 engine technology of Packard Motor Company, and felt that this technology was still a bit high-end for Nanfeng Motor Factory. Structure, if this technology is provided to Nanfeng Motor Works without any modification, it is estimated that they will only feel a headache in addition to being pleasantly surprised.

In order to earn more profits from Nanfeng Automobile Factory, Niu Xiaoqiang had to modify the technology of the V6 engine by himself.He directly reduced the number of six cylinders of the V6 engine to three cylinders.

Reducing the number of cylinders sounds simple, but keeping a reduced engine running well is more difficult.Niu Xiaoqiang worked hard for most of the day, and even ate lunch in the office. As a result, he still had a lot of work to do when he got off work.

He stretched himself, then picked up the phone and dialed the number of the guest house, asking the staff to bring Sam to his office.

Sam was planning to teach Chen Fanghua and others. When he heard that Niu Xiaoqiang wanted to talk to him, he had to terminate the class tonight and followed the staff to Niu Xiaoqiang's office.

After the two met, Niu Xiaoqiang was not polite, and directly handed the results of his busy work for most of the day to Sam: "Look at it first, and we will talk after reading."

Sam lowered his head and carefully looked at Niu Xiaoqiang's modified drawings. After a while, he raised his head and asked, "Boss, why did you modify the V6 engine into a three-cylinder engine?"

Niu Xiaoqiang first talked about the technical level of Nanfeng Automobile Factory, and then gave another reason: "China is not as keen on high-power engines as you Americans, and everyone can accept a little power. Fuel consumption will also be reduced, which is more affordable for Chinese people who are not rich, and overall it is more in line with our country's national conditions. Uncle Sam, you are a professional in automotive engines, and you should know how to modify an engine technology How many technical details are involved, to be honest, I think it would take a lot of time for me to do it alone, so I invited you over, and I want to work with you to complete the engine modification work, what do you think? "

Sam finally understood the purpose of Niu Xiaoqiang's modification of the engine, he nodded slightly, and then hesitated: "Of course it's okay for me to help you modify the technology, but then I won't have time to teach those students. To be honest, those students are very good and able to endure hardships. I like them very much. If it delays their technical improvement, I think it will be a very huge loss for them and us, so I hope to revise The matter of engine technology can be put aside temporarily, and we will finish it with you when we return to the United States."

Niu Xiaoqiang was not in a hurry to make a decision, he thought about it carefully, and then smiled slightly: "Uncle Sam, I came up with a good idea, which can not only improve the technical level of those students, but also not delay the modification of engine technology .”
