Siheyuan starts from a better life

Chapter 733, "Dongfeng" Truck

Jiang Yan had finished his work that day and was sitting boredly at his desk. He accidentally glanced out the window and suddenly saw a large truck driving into the yard, unloading a batch of equipment.

He quickly stood up and went to the window to take a closer look.

I saw the words "XXXX Automobile Manufacturing Factory" printed on the front of the truck, and several workers were transporting a batch of machinery and equipment to the warehouse.

"Is this sent by someone from the automobile factory?" Jiang Yan said to himself, "Why did the equipment suddenly come here?"

Just when he was confused, there was a knock on the office door. "Please come in!" Jiang Yan turned around.

The door opened, and a middle-aged man with slightly white temples walked in, with a kind smile on his face, and Wang Honghai followed him.

"Xiao Jiang, let me introduce to you. This is Deputy Minister Li who is in charge of our automobile manufacturing department. Do you remember that we met him last time when we went to the First Machinery Department for a meeting?"

"It turns out to be Vice Minister Li! Why did you come here in person?"

The last time the Ministry of Machinery organized a meeting, Jiang Yan did see Vice Minister Li there.

He was in charge of the automobile manufacturing part, and he always wanted to transfer himself to the automobile manufacturing part.

As a result, the optimized diesel engine was reported to Wang Honghai, and the superiors decided to jointly produce a diesel engine workshop with Jiang Yan and his research institute.

In fact, there is another important reason why Minister Li wanted to set up this workshop. He had wanted to transfer Jiang Yan to the automobile factory before, but the head of the First Machinery Department used the excuse of keeping it confidential.

Half a month ago, Jiang Yan couldn't stand Wang Honghai's hard work, so he optimized the diesel engine of the Jiefang brand truck. This resulted in a new diesel engine. This diesel engine was more powerful than the diesel engine used in the Jiefang brand truck. Twenty percent.

"The minister has given me the award." Jiang Yan said shyly, "That is just a gadget made out of hobby. Compared with the big engine in the minister's factory, it is far behind."

Jiang Yan said: "That's great! With the equipment support of the Minister Factory, my research here will be more effective with half the effort."

Now he simply transports the equipment to Jiang Yan first, which can be regarded as a workaround.

"Haha, isn't this the workshop we jointly established? I came here specially to see if there are any new developments here. The engine surprised us last time." Minister Li said with a smile.

"No, your experience in developing diesel engines is of great reference value to us." Minister Li waved his hands repeatedly, "So, we plan to set up a small workshop here and transport some equipment here first. Do you have any invention ideas? You can use it all. When you make new things in the future, our car factory can also use it as a reference. It’s mutually beneficial.”

Jiang Yan also understood Minister Li's good intentions. Fortunately, he also had the idea of ​​​​developing in the automobile field, so he just pretended not to know.

The two were chatting animatedly when the roar of an engine came from outside the door again - another big truck was coming!
Jiang Yan quickly ran to the window and took a look, and his eyes suddenly lit up - this truck was transporting all kinds of workshop equipment!
"Haha, it seems that the minister really regards my place as a factory!" Jiang Yan said jokingly, "With the support of these equipments, my idea can be realized immediately!"

"Yes, young man, I have prepared everything for you. If you have any ideas, just go for it!" Minister Li also said with a smile, "If you make new things, our automobile factory can also quickly apply them, and the country's industrial level will improve. The common people can also enjoy the benefits, this is a win-win situation!" Jiang Yan nodded and had already begun to brew a new design plan in his mind.

Looking at the sophisticated equipment, he suddenly had an idea - he could try to develop future "Dongfeng" trucks in advance!
Dongfeng trucks have high power, high load capacity, and strong salt-alkali resistance. They are a series developed by flower growers themselves and play an important role in the development of the flower growers' freight industry.

It uses a 4-6 cylinder water-cooled diesel engine with a maximum power of 260 horsepower and a total towing mass of 25 tons.

It can be used not only for road transportation, but also for the development of agricultural, engineering and special vehicles, which is of great benefit to all aspects of the national economy.

If it can be successfully developed and put into use decades in advance, it will greatly enhance our country's freight capacity and promote the development of transportation. By then, there will no longer be any need to worry about bottlenecks in transporting coal and grain, and the transportation of industrial raw materials will become much easier.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yan couldn't help but his eyes lit up and his fists clenched involuntarily - he decided to trial-produce a "Dongfeng" prototype as soon as possible!
"Minister, I have come up with a new project!" Jiang Yan said excitedly, "I want to trial-produce a high-power diesel freight truck, which can greatly improve the transportation capacity and completely change the current backwardness of our country's freight transportation!"

"Okay! I understand everything you said!" Minister Li patted his thigh.
He immediately expressed his support, "As long as I'm here, you can go ahead and develop it! I can't wait to see your new model!"

"I will definitely go all out and work hard to develop the first local high-performance freight truck in China!" Jiang Yan's eyes lit up and he was full of confidence.

The two shook hands excitedly and set this major development goal.

Jiang Yan watched Minister Li leave, and then immediately came to the newly delivered equipment in the yard.

These equipments are all equipped, including metal stamping machines, workshop cranes, advanced welding devices, and his most important engine test bench.

Jiang Yan couldn't wait to start developing it, but he still resisted the urge, returned to the office first, and began to draw the design drawings seriously.

He drew the outline curve of the car body on paper and calculated the size and proportions; he designed the engine structure in detail and marked the key components; he traced the interior space layout of the car and thought about the ergonomics of operation.
As the sun set, Jiang Yan stopped writing in his hand and looked at the clock on the wall. It was already six o'clock!
He stretched and looked at the design album in front of him with satisfaction.

……

At night, Jiang Yan lay in bed, with the design drawings of Dongfeng cars still in his mind.

He thought over and over again how to maximize the truck's performance while controlling costs. The assembly requirements for the trucks of later generations are quite high. Not to mention other things, let’s just say that the chip is a problem, but there are chips that can solve many things.

A chip-controlled fuel injection timing system is added to the engine to make fuel injection more precise; a chip-controlled automatic shifting device is added to the gearbox to automatically switch gears according to vehicle speed and load, and a voice broadcast function is added to the instrument panel Smart control panel.
If these intelligent controls can be realized, it will not only improve the economy and safety of the vehicle, but also greatly reduce the hardness of driving. It will undoubtedly be a major innovation!
But it seems that these things don't exist yet. Then Jiang Yan thought of integrated circuits. It seemed that this thing had been invented by Yingjiang in 57, so he could consider this integrated circuit.

Although integrated circuits are a great thing in this era, they were already obsolete products in their own era. It seems that this thing can be developed.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yan got out of bed and wrote the integrated circuit in his notebook.
