Chapter 294 Profit Sharing (First Update)
Sun Aiguo couldn't help but be shocked. Is that a plane?

Can your own factory build airplanes?
"Director, the technical term is a piston engine, which is the internal combustion engine we built. This type of aircraft was used during World War II." Liu Hai quickly explained when he saw Sun Aiguo being so shocked.

When Sun Aiguo heard this, he became interested and asked quickly: "Can you tell me in detail?"

"The earliest airplanes were in-line piston engines, just like the ones we use in vans, and they can be used to build airplanes."

"The radial engine was introduced later, with the piston around..." Liu Hai took a piece of paper and drew it.

"The third type is similar to the V8 engine of ZTE Leader."

"The fourth is the opposed-piston engine."

"Each of them has advantages and disadvantages...!" Liu Hai explained the advantages and disadvantages of the four engines in detail.

Sun Aiguo, who was nearby, had his eyes widened and asked, "Can the engine of our van really build an airplane?"

"Of course, but the difficulty of the aircraft is not the engine, but the overall aerodynamic layout. Designing a new engine requires a wind tunnel." Liu Hai explained the wind tunnel again.

Wind tunnels are actually divided into sizes and configurations, and small wind tunnel motorcycle factories can fully support them.

But it’s not necessary, the bangs were originally intended to be copied.

The reason why Liu Hai wants to make a piston engine is mainly because of the current domestic working conditions. Even if it is a turboprop engine, subsequent maintenance and repairs are also a big trouble, and the current national strength cannot support such a huge expenditure.

Engines such as turboprop, turbojet, turbofan, and turboshaft all require the support of the overall manufacturing industry, not just engine manufacturing, but also overall aircraft manufacturing.

Even if Liu Hai takes out a turboprop engine now, what's the use? Without super-large forging presses and casting presses, the aircraft produced will be an inferior industrial product.

In addition, the overall structure, design, and manufacturing of the aircraft are not good, and even a single engine is useless.

The cost of piston engines is low, maintenance costs are low, and maintenance technical requirements are not high.

There are no decent aircraft in China, so a piston engine would be great.

When Sun Aiguo heard Liu Hai say so much, he was shocked by Liu Hai's knowledge reserve. At the same time, he was confused: "According to what you said, manufacturing is very difficult?"

"Let's make a small one first, the one with one or two people. If it succeeds, of course it's good. If it fails, just accumulate experience." Liu Hai originally planned to make that kind of small aircraft first, the kind that we see now worth hundreds of thousands. A small fixed-wing aircraft, the kind that is refueled at a gas station.

It is impossible to build a large piston transport aircraft with two to three thousand horsepower.

In fact, piston transport aircraft have a long life. If you look at modern Africa, there are many places where they are used for both passenger and cargo purposes, and there are also some special aircraft that can be used for fire extinguishing and the like.

"No problem, you can just do it yourself." Sun Aiguo certainly agreed when he heard Liu Hai's words, thinking that he could also fly a plane and fly around in the sky in the future.

Regardless of whether it is a big airplane or a small airplane, as long as you can build an airplane, it will definitely be much more upscale than building a car.

"I'm just going to give it a try here. I won't alarm other departments, so as not to fail and be laughed at." Liu Hai said quickly.

"Let's see what you do, whatever is convenient for you." Sun Aiguo felt that Liu Hai would definitely bring him good news. Although the young man in front of him said that he might not succeed every time he did design research, he finally succeeded. .

Sun Aiguo left, and he had a lot of things to do there, but on the way back to the factory, he felt dizzy while walking. He looked up at the sky from time to time, thinking to himself: "I forgot to ask Xiao Liu if the plane is easy to fly? And how high can it fly? It's too high. Are your feet soft?"

The next day, the people from the maintenance department came back, and Liu Hai breathed a sigh of relief and quickly distributed the drawings to them.

The skills of the people in the maintenance department are divided into three levels. The first three people, Li Dali, are responsible for guidance and final finishing, while the last group of people do some rough work.

Anyway, if it fails, you can just work overtime and do it again. Liu Hai's concept is a bit similar to the concept of responsibility system, that is, the part is handed over to you, and if you fail, you have to do it again.

Liu Hai continues to design the gearbox, as well as other body parts and so on.

-------------

While Liu Hai was busy building sports cars in Kyoto, here on Hong Kong Island, Mr. Fok was waiting for last year's financial settlement.

Mr. Huo will report this financial settlement to the mainland, because the mainland accounts for part of Mr. Huo's Sihai Company's profits, and still accounts for the majority.

This is why the mainland gives Mr. Huo the cost price, allowing Mr. Huo to increase the price himself, and then the company's profit is divided between the mainland and Mr. Huo, which is about 20%, and Mr. Huo occupies [-]% of the profit.

However, Mr. Huo is going to the mainland this time to make some changes. As for how much of the share will be taken in the end?Mr. Huo's psychological bottom line is 2%.

Don’t underestimate this 2%. According to the current market situation, there will be 600 million small-displacement motorcycles a year, 125 250 motorcycles, 20 cars, countless small household appliances, and excavators. Seven to eight thousand units, and another 20 marine propellers.

In addition, there are some scrap iron and the like that cannot be registered, and the profits of this type are not low.

Besides, Mr. Huo also has a factory to produce accessories, and this profit is not included in the profits from the mainland.

And without the support from the mainland, Mr. Huo knew that his business would not be able to grow so big. All the materials for building the port came from the mainland, and the prices were really cheap.

In addition, the workers in our factory are all our fellow workers, and many of them have seen blood. You know, there are everyone here on Hong Kong Island now.

"I wonder how the production of automobiles and sports cars is going?" Mr. Huo is not too worried here. Most of the products are made in the mainland and sold by a group of dealers.

Regardless of buying or selling, I am just a middleman.

Of course, another advantage of Mr. Huo's stay on Hong Kong Island is that the foreign exchange in his hand does not need to be exchanged for mainland currency at all, and can be directly exchanged for needed equipment on Hong Kong Island.

If you use the mainland's own money to exchange for foreign exchange, and then buy equipment, there will be a lot of stuff inside.

Moreover, the prices for the same equipment purchased from mainland China and from dealers such as Sihai Company are completely different.

For a set of large chemical equipment, the mainland may need [-] million yuan in foreign exchange, or even more.

But when dealers like Sihai Company buy it, the price is unimaginable, and this is only a quotation. As for the actual purchase price, they don't know at all.

Everyone in the country has benefited from it. The mainland has used the same money to buy more equipment, and the dealers have also made a lot of money.

At the end of January 64, Mr. Huo got last year's financial statements and then set off north.

At this time, the mainland was already sending [-] motorcycles to Hong Kong Island every day. No matter day or night, there was an endless stream of cargo ships from the Pearl River to the port of Hong Kong Island. However, the sailors on both sides seemed to turn a blind eye, especially the fishermen on the Hong Kong Island side. Acting as an eyeliner, once a suspicious ship appears in this area, it will be reported immediately.

Then the sailors from Hong Kong Island will drive gunboats to see who is here to cause trouble.When Mr. Huo came to Kyoto, Liu Hai was assembling the first V12-cylinder engine with a horsepower of 515 horsepower.

Sun Aiguo is watching Liu Hai making final inspections here. 515 horsepower, what is the concept?
Sun Aiguo looked at the engine in front of him and felt very nervous for no reason. A few years ago, how much horsepower did the motorcycles produced by the motorcycle factory have?

How much horsepower does the diesel engine that comes out of the back have?
A 12-cylinder gasoline engine has more than 500 horsepower. What does this mean?
Far ahead!

Lead the world!

These are the eight words that Sun Aiguo thought of, and only these eight words can describe it. Of course, the premise is success.

"What horsepower engine does our tank use now?" A thought flashed in Sun Aiguo's mind.

The final inspection was carried out on Liu Hai's side. After all the engine oil and other checks were in place, it was ready to start.

This one is also equipped with an electric start and uses a very large battery. Unfortunately, there is no such thing as a modern power battery.

"When will the battery technology be upgraded?" Liu Hai looked at the lead-acid battery in front of him, wondering when he would look for it on the aircraft carrier. There should be battery-related things.

This one is naturally air-cooled.

This machine was specially brought to the place for testing. There are already relatively professional procedures for testing here.

Liu Hai pressed the switch and started the motor to drive the V12-cylinder engine.

Along with a roar and a puff of smoke, the 12-cylinder engine started successfully.

After only ten seconds of startup, Liu Hai quickly stopped the machine because there was something wrong with the sound, and then carefully checked and debugged it.

This is the order of the test run, this internal combustion engine is fine.

The first ignition of an aircraft engine does not take more than three seconds, and then various data must be checked immediately. After reading various data, the engine itself must be checked. The second ignition should not take more than ten seconds, and then various data and the engine must be checked again. .

In this way, you have to test frequently and many times, and gradually increase the time.

This time the engine sound was smooth. Sun Aiguo looked at the v12-cylinder gasoline engine that had started running smoothly and applauded vigorously: "Okay!"

Everyone in the entire workshop also applauded. There were only people from the maintenance department workshop and the factory director and secretary, but no one else.

The maintenance department is quite special in a motorcycle factory. Firstly, it is remote. Secondly, no one can come in. Even many people in the factory office cannot come in.

"Is this going to be put here for testing now?" Sun Aiguo looked at this engine and felt so powerful and domineering.

"Follow the procedure and test it first." Liu Hai nodded. Engine test is a must. How many hours will it take?Observe the condition of the engine oil and various parts.

"Okay, how long is the sports car expected to take?" It's almost February, and the Chinese New Year will be in about ten days.

"The parts for the second unit are almost ready and will be ready for assembly in a week." Liu Hai said.

"How long will your lover be there? Don't ignore it then?" Sun Aiguo asked Liu Hai about things at home again.

"My lover will go there after the new year without delay." Liu Hai knew that he was asking about the child's date of birth and said immediately.

"Well, I'll wait for your good news!" Sun Aiguo didn't say much.

"I've been too busy here recently. It hasn't reached 20 units per day yet. The pre-orders for small-displacement motorcycles on Hong Kong Island have always been [-], and there has been no change at all." Sun Aiguo walked out with Liu Hai. , said while speaking.

The workshop where the test drive is carried out is separate from the maintenance department, and Liu Hai arranged for someone to watch it here.

"Director, you go and do your work, I don't need you to worry about it." Liu Hai has a plan to assemble the sports car before the Chinese New Year.

Backed by a large factory with more than 5 people, how complicated is the shape of the car cover that Liu Hai takes out?Senior skilled workers can hammer it out for you.

In terms of automobile manufacturing, the most difficult thing to make is the mold, but with the backing of a large factory with tens of thousands of people, it is still no problem to make the mold.

Special tires, special wheels, and body panels.

Everything is basically complete, and the gearbox is basically completed, leaving only the final assembly.

The assembly of the second engine will begin tomorrow. After completion, it will be tested and then the gearbox and the entire vehicle will be assembled.

"I believe you. After your sports car is built, let Mr. Huo come to visit." Sun Aiguo said after walking out, and then left in a hurry.

Liu Hai returned to the maintenance department, and the others quickly went to work, mainly doing final inspections of the engine parts and gearbox parts, and starting assembly tomorrow.

Liu Hai entered his office. The drawings of the entire vehicle were completed half a month ago. The drawings were sent to various departments while drawing.

For example, the size and requirements of the glass, wheels and tires, these are all drawn in advance.

What Liu Hai is drawing now is a 4-cylinder opposed gasoline engine with only about 110 horsepower. This is the power system of a small aircraft.

The power system of the aircraft is only part of it. The entire aircraft also has control systems and other things.

The bangs are based on the Apollo LSA, a modern small aircraft.

The wings are on top, and the view below is wide, allowing you to perform some observation tasks and the like.

There is no need to worry about the bangs on the sports car. There are more than a dozen people in the maintenance department, and the vehicle is assembled very quickly.

"We will build this small aircraft in the next half year."

"Then we can build a larger twin-engine transport aircraft the year after next."

"In the future, we can build a four-engine large transport aircraft."

"Let's make a piston engine for the time being, and we'll talk about the rest later." This is Liu Hai's temporary plan for aircraft.

"Mr. Huo, we have arrived in Kyoto. When he is free, I will invite him to have dinner at home. Then we will write the relevant agreement." When we went to the father-in-law's house for dinner in the evening, the father-in-law said to Liu Hai said.
