Manufacturing Empire in the Valley

Chapter 1907 They Are Developing Conventional Powered Submarines
Niu Xiaoqiang accepted Master's criticism very humbly: "Master is right. I will never buy such low-level things again. If I want to buy them, I will buy affordable ones. If I have the money, I can buy more and use them for a long time. .”

Fang Dongping nodded slightly, and he threw the two boxes of lighters to Niu Xiaoqiang: "I always feel that this thing is not suitable for me, nor is it suitable for your brother-in-law, you can give it to others."

Niu Xiaoqiang could see that Fang Dongping was in a bad mood, so he nodded and put the two lighters into his handbag.

Fang Dongping finally looked at the box containing the jewelry: "What kind of jewelry is in it, don't they be fooling people again?"

Niu Xiaoqiang knows that people in China like real gold and silver, so when choosing jewelry, he bought ones with more gold content.

He opened the first box and said, "This is a bracelet for your granddaughter. It's made of pure gold, but the pattern and pattern are a bit special. I think it's pretty good, so I bought it."

When he said this, he opened the second box: "This is the gold necklace I bought for my senior sister. There are many pearls strung on it. The style is not bad."

This time Fang Dongping was quite satisfied, he nodded again and again: "Well, these two jewelry are not bad, Xiaoqiang, I have made you worry."

Niu Xiaoqiang hurriedly waved his hand: "As long as everyone likes it, it's worth the disciple's effort."

Fang Dongping nodded quite gratified: "You just know how to care about people. Another day you take some time to sit at my house. I will let Mu Bai set up a table. Let's all get together."

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled and said thank you Master, then stood up and said: "Master, I will go to the factory first, and then I will go to Mr. Li's house for dinner, so I won't talk much. After I finish my work, we will talk again." Have a good drink or two."

Fang Dongping smiled and waved his hands: "Go and do your work."

Niu Xiaoqiang hummed, bowed slightly, then turned and left.

Due to limited time, Niu Xiaoqiang did not go to too many places. He first came to the Hongqi Research Institute, visited the researchers, and learned about the progress of various research and development projects of the institute.

As the director, Wang Tao usually gathers with technicians to discuss technical details.Today was no exception. When Niu Xiaoqiang walked into the research institute, Wang Tao was discussing something with Jiang Hongchang.

It is said to be a discussion, but it is almost the same as a quarrel.The two were arguing with red faces, and those who didn't know thought they were arguing.

The other researchers were busy with their own affairs, and they looked familiar for a long time.

Niu Xiaoqiang walked up to the two of them quickly, and teased with a smile: "You two, what are you talking about, you are talking so vigorously?"

Wang Tao and Jiang Hongchang turned their heads and saw that the person who came was Niu Xiaoqiang. They immediately expressed surprise, put the argument just now into the sky, and greeted Niu Xiaoqiang one after another.

After saying hello, Niu Xiaoqiang repeated the old saying: "What were you discussing just now?"

Wang Tao pointed to the design drawings on the table and replied: "We just discussed the displacement of the new engine. I insist on large displacement. Deputy director Jiang prefers small displacement. It just so happened that Secretary Niu came. Why don't you come up with an idea."

Niu Xiaoqiang looked at the design drawings and found that it was a diesel engine.He asked curiously, "Which model are you planning to use this engine on?"

Jiang Hongchang replied: "It is going to be used on pickup trucks. Fang's Motors is planning to start production of pickup trucks recently. The main sales destinations are determined to be in Africa and the Middle East."

Niu Xiaoqiang let out a sigh, and after thinking for a while, he proposed a solution: "You can design two diesel engines at the same time, one with a large displacement and one with a small displacement, and put the large displacement on pickup trucks in the Middle East, because the Middle East is not bad. Money, oil resources are also very rich, and small displacements are put on pickup trucks in Africa. People in Africa are generally not rich, and oil resources are not as rich as in the Middle East. What do you think of this arrangement?"

When they heard this, they both felt that it made sense, so they shook hands and made peace, agreeing to Niu Xiaoqiang's proposal.

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled and asked: "Last time I gave you the research and development work on vehicle emission reduction technology. How is the progress of this project?"

When the two heard this, they turned their heads to look at a corner, and said in unison: "Old Xu, come here."

Lao Xu is not too old, and looks like he is in his early thirties.Niu Xiaoqiang had never seen this person before, and if nothing else happened, this person should be a newcomer recruited by the research institute after he went abroad last time.

Lao Xu's expression was a little nervous. He heard many people greet Niu Xiaoqiang just now, and he knew that this young man was the famous Secretary Niu.

Niu Xiaoqiang's name in Hope New District is so famous that some people even said something like "Niu Xiaoqiang should be born as a child".Coupled with Niu Xiaoqiang's status as an international student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, many elites feel admiration and awe.

Old Xu walked up to him with an unnatural smile, and bowed politely to say hello: "Hi Secretary Niu, my name is Xu Kang, and I joined the research institute four months ago. Before joining the research institute, I worked in the 651 Institute Work."

Niu Xiaoqiang held Xu Kang's hand very politely, and said with a smile, "Hi Xu Kang, welcome to join the Fang Group."

Xu Kang was flattered and nodded repeatedly, thinking to himself: I used to hear that Secretary Niu was very kind to people, but now it seems that it is indeed so.

After shaking hands, Niu Xiaoqiang asked curiously, "I don't know what unit 651 is?"

Xu Kang quickly replied: "Institute 651 is a unit that specializes in the research and development of conventionally powered submarines."

Niu Xiaoqiang couldn't help being taken aback when he heard the words, and thought to himself: Isn't this too exaggerated?By the way, how did the Hongqi Research Institute recruit a technician who studies conventionally powered submarines?Is such a technician really suitable for the automotive industry?
Wang Tao seemed to see the doubts in Niu Xiaoqiang's mind. He explained: "Xu Kang studied mechanical dynamics before graduation, and he has a good understanding of the structure of engines. What he did in 651 was also the work of developing diesel power systems for submarines. That's why I specially recruited him."

Wang Tao began to praise Xu Kang at this point: "Don't underestimate him. He is very good at submarine exhaust emission technology. He has developed a complete set of related equipment, which has completely changed the exhaust emission of our country's new generation of conventional submarines. The method, if it weren’t for the fact that the country is reducing its military investment so much that the 651 Institute has encountered great difficulties, we would have been unable to find a talent like him.”
