Great warships

Chapter 210 A century-old factory, just this quality?
After going out, it was a little cold outside. After all, Sweden is not a low latitude.

Everyone stood in the cold wind and reached out to stop the taxi, but they didn't see the taxi coming for a long time.

"These people are trying to show us off. When we come, a special car will pick them up, and when we go back, we will be ignored." Jin Mao said: "We have to fight, let's go back, it won't be cold if we walk around! "

Qin Tao nodded, and then put his coat on Zhao Ling's body.

"Brother Tao, I'm not cold."

"But I'm hot." Qin Tao said: "I will sweat after exercising. After finishing speaking, I took a big step forward."

Wearing a coat that smelled like Qin Tao's body, Zhao Ling felt warm in her heart.

Everyone walked back together, looking at the streets of Sweden, full of exotic customs, which felt good.

"Mr. Qin, thank you for coming to help. After all, you have the most experience in dealing with foreigners." Jin Mao talked to Qin Tao while walking.

If it is Jin Mao, he can only stick to his opinion. Even if it is for a day, it is useless if the other party refuses to agree, but Qin Tao has reason and evidence, and the other party has to fight the tactic of procrastination, but tomorrow, he will bring an endoscope over there , see what they say.

Thinking of this, Jin Mao said to Qin Tao: "Tomorrow, we need to bring an endoscope to find the cracks. It is obviously their manufacturing defect, but now they are running the train with their mouths full. In short, we are absolutely responsible for the defective propeller. Don’t, otherwise, it’s a crime.”

That's a warship!How can the new generation of destroyers, which have been researched by countless scientific research units in China, have serious defects on the propellers?

"You don't need to bring an endoscope tomorrow," Qin Tao said.

What?Don't bring it tomorrow?

Looking at Jin Mao's puzzled eyes, Qin Tao said: "Because after driving us away, they will definitely rush to work overnight to fill up those cracks by welding. When we hand them over to us tomorrow, they will definitely not find any cracks."

"What? No, we'll go back immediately. We don't want the welded defective products, we want brand new ones!" Jin Mao said.

Qin Tao shook his head: "Going back, will they let us in? They will definitely use various means to stop us."

"Then what should we do? We can't just watch foreigners fool us with defective products!"

"There is always a way." Qin Tao said: "Do they think it will be seamless after welding? After welding, the center of gravity will change. Tomorrow we will not use the endoscope, we will directly measure the center of gravity. The center of gravity is not on the axis. The transmission shaft should vibrate, and this defect is absolutely unacceptable, and they didn’t say anything about it.” (Actually, it’s more appropriate to call the center of mass, but the center of gravity is more popular, anyway, it’s a point in the gravitational field.)
Everyone's eyes brightened, that's right, in this way, they were caught off guard!
"Brother Tao, I have a question." Zhao Ling wrapped Qin Tao's warm coat and walked with the crowd. Her steps were fast, she caught up with Qin Tao, and then she spoke.

"what is the problem?"

"The Kameva company, hasn't it been manufacturing variable-pitch propellers for decades? How can we make such low-level mistakes in our products?" Zhao Ling asked Qin Tao.

Hearing this question, Qin Tao's face was a bit ugly: "This, it's not hard to guess, right?"

How clever Zhao Ling is, she immediately understood: "On purpose?"

What the other party thinks, no one will know, and the other party will not say, but the fact is like this, Qin Tao has a sneer on his face: "It is impossible to purchase a strong national defense by outsourcing. It is reliable, and our domestic propeller manufacturing companies should work harder, and strive to manufacture our own domestic advanced propellers as soon as possible."

Qin Tao is full of confidence in this.

In later generations, CSSC Wärtsilä Propeller Company developed a new type of seven-axis five-linkage CNC machine tool, marking that China has mastered the manufacturing technology of large-scale propellers. This machine tool can manufacture propellers with a diameter of up to 12.5 meters, which is equivalent to Twice the diameter of the propeller of the Nimitz aircraft carrier, and the weight of a single propeller exceeds 400 tons, marking that China has reached the highest level in the world in this regard. (It seems that this company is a Sino-foreign joint venture, but anyway, it is in China and can produce aircraft carrier propellers for us.)
Now, our side has to work hard. After returning, go to the water jet factory in Huating to see if we can improve.

the next day.

Rosenberg had a smile on his face: "Everyone, the endoscope has been prepared for you. Even if you want to use a metal flaw detector, we can provide it. Please rest assured that the propellers produced by our factory are absolutely qualified. The product, yesterday's test, was just a small mistake."

"We asked to measure the center of gravity of the propeller." Jin Mao said, "Forget about finding cracks."

what?
Hearing Jin Mao's words, Rosenberg's face changed greatly: "What do you want to test?"

"Center of gravity."

"We have a test report here, and the center of gravity of the propeller has been calibrated, which is on the axis. How could such important data be wrong?" Rosenberg said, "You just need to read the report."

"Look at the report? In your report, it doesn't say that the propeller will leak oil, right?" Qin Tao said from the side: "You are such a professional company, don't you let the customers who ordered the products check the position of the center of gravity? What are you afraid of? Shouldn't it be Could it be that the machining accuracy is not enough?"

"How is it possible? We use the most advanced CNC machine tools in Europe, and the precision is the highest."

"Then why don't you let us test it again?"

"We, we..."

"If you don't allow testing, then we have good reasons not to purchase your product. And we have to claim compensation." Qin Tao said: "No matter which country it is in, we are sure to win this lawsuit."

"Okay, since you insist, let's test it on the machine."

"Okay, this is the style of the old factory." Qin Tao said: "By the way, have you debugged your machines in advance?"

"Just one test run, the machine will be automatically zeroed internally, and our equipment here is the most advanced." Rosenberg said.

"That's good, so that you don't have a problem for a while, and then blame the machine for not debugging it, let's start quickly."

The propellers were transported to the huge machines and spun up. (Hero of East China has never seen it before. Think about it, it should be similar to the dynamic balance after tire repair.)
The machine spun, the golden propeller looked very beautiful, and after a few minutes, the data was displayed.

"The center of gravity of the propeller deviates from the axis by three millimeters." Qin Tao looked at the data displayed on it, and said to Rosenberg: "Your side is the strongest in the field of propellers, and it is this level? What if this is installed on the ship? , the drive shaft sealing ring had to be leaked on the first trip out to sea!"

Three millimeters is not that big compared to a propeller with a diameter of one or two meters, but it has a significant impact on ships!
The propeller is unbalanced, and it will vibrate during rotation. The vibration of the mobile phone is the same principle. However, the mobile phone needs to vibrate, and the propeller cannot vibrate. The vibration will have a major impact on the ship, and at least it will damage the bearing of the drive shaft. If it is too heavy, the entire hull will resonate and fall apart, which is very dangerous.

"It's only three millimeters, and it's completely within the margin of error," Rosenberg said.

"What? Are you a professional or an amateur? If [-]mm is fine, then we will invite people in the industry to judge!" Qin Tao was annoyed.

Jin Mao couldn't sit still anymore, he stood up and said, "Now let me analyze for you what consequences these three centimeters will bring to the warship!"

After finishing speaking, Jin Mao picked up a piece of chalk in his hand and began to write on the concrete floor.

In order to prevent these guys from stealing the boat, Jin Mao prepared chalk in advance for marking the propeller. Now, he finished drawing the structural diagram of the propeller on the ground and indicated various parameters.

Then, he circled the part where the center of gravity shifted, and began to write various formulas, and the calculations proved that this shift could even be said to be a fatal problem.

The representatives of the Kameva company all opened their eyes wide. Looking at the data analyzed by Jinmao, they would never have imagined that the Orientals would use this method to prove it!
What else can I do?
"Friends from the East, we admit that this propeller is defective. We are willing to destroy the propellers that have already been manufactured and make new propellers for you." Facing the facts, Rosenberg finally stopped arguing. I know, I have no reason to say it.

"As an old factory that has been manufacturing variable-pitch propellers for decades, it is said that you should strictly control the quality. I hope you can learn from the experience and lessons from this time and produce qualified propellers for us. If the next batch of propellers is still unqualified , we will claim compensation according to the contract." Qin Tao said.

Exhaustion, really relief, a young man from the East, standing in front of an old factory that has made propellers for decades or even hundreds of years, pointed to their technicians and said, your quality is not good, and you must strictly control the quality in the future close!
Moreover, these people have not yet said that facts speak louder than words, no matter what kind of tricks they play, if they rebuild the propeller next time, there will be no more moths!

"We are producing the second batch of propellers as soon as possible," Rosenberg said.

Every Chinese present felt elated. The other party finally gave up and was willing to give their own party a new production!

"Tonight, please be sure to honor me and dine at our king's palace."

The other party raised the standard. Yesterday it was just a dinner party, but today they set up the dinner party in such a place, so it is difficult for everyone to refuse.

So, just go, after you go, eat, and other conditions, don't talk about it!
"This mistake, we will lose 80 marks. I hope you can open up and use the propeller we repaired." Sure enough, when the dinner was over, Rosenberg said.

"Didn't we already talk about it during the day? It's private time now, we don't talk about business affairs." Jin Mao said.

"Hehe, you will learn a lot from the pitfalls, and you will treat this loss as a tuition fee. From now on, you will strictly control the quality." Qin Tao once again disgusted the other party.

Back at the hotel, Qin Tao was very happy. He called the shipyard and received a message.

"There is news from the north! You are invited to go!"

Although this was a code word, Qin Tao understood it immediately.

The more chaos there is, the more opportunities there are. Qin Tao knows this deeply, and at the same time, Nicholas also knows it.

Therefore, during this period of time, Nicholas successfully completed all the procedures and was waiting for Qin Tao and the others to pick up the ship.

What ship?Of course it was the Hyundai-class destroyer that blew up its boiler, the Resolute!
A week later, Qin Tao came to the Pacific Fleet base again. Although there was a huge vortex in Moscow, it was quiet in the Far East.

"Nicolas, my friend, it's been a long time. How are you?" Qin Tao said, "It's a pity that I left without saying goodbye last time."

"Yeah, I'm really sorry last time. It's mainly about the domestic situation. However, I've already done what needs to be done." Nicholas laughed.

The last time I suddenly left without saying goodbye was at the Yakovlev Design Bureau. Now, all the things that should be obtained have been brought to the warehouse of the base, and they are waiting to be shipped and shipped away together.The light industrial products that Qin Tao promised had already been shipped to them. Both of them are reliable in doing business honestly and trustworthily.

"Well, my friend, move those things to the Resolute, and we'll get them away together when the time comes." Qin Tao said to Nicholas.

Nicholas frowned: "Qin, my friend, it's not easy to get these things away. It's best not to expose them along the way, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."

"Of course I know that." Qin Tao said, "We will cover up this ship."

The whole ship, covered up?
Nicholas was a little curious: "How to cover it?"

"Of course it's the cloth on the top." After Qin Tao finished speaking, he realized where Nicholas was struggling: "By the way, we will bring our own floating dock over."

The floating dock is coming?

Only then did Nicholas understand.

The boiler of the Resolute has exploded, and it is impossible to start it up again. If you want to tow it back, you have to use a few tugboats, dangling on the sea, and it is impossible not to be surrounded by crowds. The shipyard is different.

The floating dock can directly put the warship in the stomach, and if the top is covered with a roof, it will be safe.

What's more, what Qin Tao and the others have is a [-]-ton floating dock, and the Resolute is stuffed into it, and it's safe.

"It will take a few days for our floating dock to arrive, so now, we have to deal with it, remove the mast of the firm, etc., so that it is convenient for transportation, my old friend, those things are already broken, I bring them like this Let's go, I won't cause trouble for you, will I?"

Nicholas shook his head: "Of course not, the entire warship belongs to you, but the missiles and other weapons on it have already been stored in the warehouse according to regulations."

It's easy to get the missiles out, but it's not easy to remove the radar on it.Although it was covered up at the time, if someone dismantled the equipment on it, it would inevitably reveal the truth. Therefore, in order to avoid trouble, Nicholas was very generous and just took it away together!Anyway, now that the Soviet is so chaotic, no one will care about it.

Qin Tao nodded.

Nicholas can't participate in this kind of thing, but the people below are easy to talk about.

Anti-aircraft missiles don't matter, because last time, Qin Tao had already got the 9M38 missiles that were equipped with Shijili, and this time he just got the supporting radar and other systems. As for the other big guy, this The second time must be obtained.

The Shenzhou floating dock was originally docked to build two important ships. However, the natural gas ship has almost been built and is waiting to be handed over. It can be launched at any time. Therefore, after receiving Qin Tao's order, the shipyard immediately Just launch the natural gas ship, and then drive the floating dock over.

Of course, the power of the floating dock itself is not strong enough, and the speed is not fast enough. In order to speed up, they also hired a tugboat to tow the floating dock in front, speeding up together, all the way north.

Nicholas was in the headquarters, and Zaitsev was still the one who received Qin Tao. In order to deceive people, everything was done at night.

"No, we can't wait any longer!" When Qin Tao came to the moored dock, he suddenly heard a voice from the Resolute destroyer on board the Resolute.

"That's right, that is, we need to gather all the people on the ship and go to the headquarters to ask for an explanation. If we don't pay us any more, we will..."

Hearing these words, Qin Tao's heart was overjoyed. He was thinking of looking for an opportunity, but unexpectedly, the opportunity came like this!

Zaitsev, who couldn't walk with Qin Tao, also heard the shouts of these people inside. In an instant, he wanted to reach out for the gun, but was stopped by Qin Tao, and Qin Tao forced him Shake your head.

No, you can't do that!

If you do this, it will lead to a bloody incident. In the current situation, once such an incident occurs, it will easily intensify domestic conflicts!
Zaitsev nodded. He had absolute trust in Qin Tao. Since Qin Tao shook his head at him, he would stop Qin Tao.

Qin Tao walked towards the warship, and when he stepped on the bridge between the stern of the warship and the pier, the sound of his footsteps was immediately heard by the sailors sitting at the stern of the Kokang, and they immediately shouted Get up: "Who?"

"It's me, your friend." Qin Tao said, "Don't be so excited, I have no malicious intentions."

The dim light on the pier shone on the dozens of sailors. Qin Tao looked at these nervous people, and his mind was organizing words quickly.

"Zaytsev, what are you doing here?" At this moment, someone on the opposite side recognized Zaitsev, and suddenly became nervous again.

Hula, Hula!
These old-fashioned navy sailors actually got AK rifles. In this special period, the army is indeed chaotic enough.

"Isn't it just for some salary? Why bother to fight and kill? We are all comrades in arms. What are you doing? Put down the gun, put down!" Qin Tao said. At this time, he stood in front of him without hesitation. The nervous guy, Qin Tao is about to explain here, but he is not afraid.

To pull the frame, you have to stand in the middle.

Sure enough, the sailors were shocked by Qin Tao's momentum, or attracted by Qin Tao's words, they put down their guns, and the smell of gunpowder on the scene weakened a little.

"That's right. I also know that it feels very uncomfortable to be owed wages. I have to eat and drink, and I have to support the whole family. Maybe the family is still waiting for wages to buy bread, and they always don't pay wages. Then Soldiers can't survive, brother, how much wages are you owed?"

Glasov, the leading sailor on the opposite side, said, "We haven't received last month's wages yet! We really can't live through this day!"

It turned out that the salary was only one month. It seems that the old man is really angry enough. In China, the contractors are often in arrears for one or two years, and the workers have no way to get the salary. What is this month now?
However, here at Lao Maozi, since the benefits are very good, there is almost no concept of savings, so if the salary is suddenly not paid, something will definitely happen.And, since goods are often unavailable in state-run stores, they have to pay high prices for black market goods, so they need money even more.

In fact, many factories and the like have not paid wages for several months, but the army has always been valued in the Red Empire, so the wages of the army have always been as usual, but something happened last month. !There was commotion in Moscow, and the appropriation for the army could not come down.

The current Red Empire has not yet reached the point of being unable to pay military expenditures.

This is entirely delayed by the bureaucracy.

So, I came at just the right time!

Qin Tao secretly rejoiced in his heart: "How much wages did you owe in total?"

"I am a second lieutenant. I have a basic salary of 180 rubles, a military rank salary of 40 rubles, and a senior salary of 290 rubles. Therefore, the total is 580 rubles. Together with this month's salary, a total of [-] rubles has not been paid. .”

During the old Maozi period, there was absolutely nothing to say about the treatment of soldiers. The salary of soldiers was the highest. You know, a college graduate took part in a job, which was just over 100 rubles. Being a soldier can get such a salary, and , all over the country, soldiers will receive preferential treatment, such as taking a car and the like, without buying a ticket.

"All of you are in arrears, so based on an average of [-] rubles, the total is [-] rubles." Qin Tao glanced at everyone: "I can give you the owed wages, Xiao Ling, and get [-] rubles." Ruble out!"

Zhao Ling became Qin Tao's secretary again, carrying a bag in her hand, she was worried about Qin Tao's safety just now, but now, she has become calm again.

Looking at the money, Grasov hesitated: "Who are you?"

"I'm your good friend. Seeing that you are in trouble, how can I not help?"

"But we can't ask for your money in vain."

These old men are still principled. Although the money is right in front of them, they have to pay for their debts. This salary has nothing to do with the people in front of them. They have to go to the headquarters.

"I am also a good friend of Nikolai. I came here to buy the hulk next to you. If you are going to trouble Nikolai, I will take it as a solution for Nikolai to solve some unstable factors. Take it."

Nikolai's best friend?
If Qin Tao revealed his identity as soon as he came up, he might be stunned by the other party. Now that he has given the money to the other party, the other party is already grateful. Hearing Qin Tao say that he is a good friend of Nicholas, Not too much conflict.

"Why doesn't Nikolai pay us?"

"Of course it's because the current situation is turbulent. I'll solve the imminent problems for you first. Take it, take it!"

As he said that, Qin Tao stuffed the ruble into Grasov's hands: "You guys share it among yourself, I'm leaving!"

"Wait!" Grasov stopped Qin Tao: "Even if you are Nikolai's good friend, we can't ask for the money for nothing, we can exchange it!"

Qin Tao was overjoyed, what a lovely low-level person!So simple and kind!
