Siheyuan: My Northeastern Farmhouse

Chapter 231 It’s necessary!

What? A heavy-duty car engine?

What a coincidence, isn't it?

Gu Weijun secretly calculated in his heart that since he had the 493 engine and the manual five-speed transmission, his next plan was to copy Isuzu's fifth-generation ELF100 light truck! Later generations of domestic diesel engines and light trucks are inseparable from this Isuzu light truck!

Jiangling, Qingling, Foton, more than a dozen domestic manufacturers all rely on these technologies!

The next target is the Isuzu TD72 heavy truck!

Why this model? Because in 69, our country bought 2100 Isuzu heavy-duty trucks TD72 for use on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau!

Don't ask why Gu Weijun always keeps an eye on Isuzu? Because Isuzu’s light trucks and heavy-duty goods have gone through many domestic tests! Including diesel quality, controllability, durability, maintainability, etc.

Our country introduced Isuzu technology for the first time in 84, and then for the second time in 94. Therefore, the information about Isuzu on the Internet in later generations is particularly complete, and there are many bloggers!

Therefore, Gu Weijun thought for a moment and told Secretary Huang his thoughts!

Secretary Huang slapped his thigh suddenly, his eyes widened, and asked excitedly: "Army!"

“You can really design light trucks and heavy cargo!”

Secretary Huang stood up excitedly and walked around the office, tapping his fists and saying, "Army, do you know?"

"You have done great service to the country!"

"Do you know why Team Leader Fang was so excited that he cried? Then he asked us if we could design heavy goods?"

"Last year, Leader Zhou went to France for inspection and decided to introduce the technology of heavy-duty off-road vehicles and heavy-duty vehicles from the French company Bellier, but the other party asked for more than 10 million US dollars! We can't afford it!"

"You must know that our country's foreign exchange is only a little over 100 million US dollars!"

"With such a small amount of foreign exchange, we need to import food and develop other technologies. It's very stretched!"

"Drink! You must drink tonight!"

Secretary Huang took three steps at a time, walked to the desk, picked up the phone, and said, "Pick me up to the Metallurgical Department!"

"Let Zhou Guanwu from Shijingshan Steel Factory answer the phone!"

A minute later, "Lao Zhou, I am Lao Huang!"

"Tell you some great news!"

"Dajun has designed the gearbox and the chassis of the jeep today and is working on it with Master Liang!"

"Yes, it's Gu Weijun!"

"Haha, what other good news is there!"

"Let me tell you, Dajun plans to design light trucks next, and heavy cargo next!"

"Yes, he is sure and sure!"

"Haha! That's right, come back quickly and come to my house for a drink! You must have a drink!"

"Ok, I will wait for you!"

Secretary Huang put down the phone, put on his coat, and waved at Gu Weijun, "Let's go to my house and ask your aunt and sister Xiaoxia to cook us some dishes to go with the wine!"

An hour later, Director Zhou rushed back after a long journey. As soon as he arrived at Secretary Huang's house, he gave Gu Weijun a big hug as soon as he saw him, and slapped Gu Weijun on the back hard, "Good boy! Good boy!"

After taking off his coat, Director Zhou sat down on the wine table and poured a tea jar of white wine with a "dong dong dong" sound. He stamped the tea jar hard and said, "Here, have a cup first!" After saying that, he poured out the full tea jar. A tea jar of white wine is gone!

At the end of the drink, Director Zhou and Secretary Huang were crying and laughing. They were crying because our army had better off-road vehicles and tractors, and they were laughing too!

Gu Weijun smiled and drank silently the whole time. He knew that there was only one thing he had to do on this occasion, and that was drink!

I can also particularly understand the feelings of Director Zhou and Secretary Huang, because they both came from the army, and they were fed up with the full firepower coverage of the American imperialists on the Korean battlefield! What our People's Liberation Army can do is rely on two-legged tactics to penetrate!

Therefore, in later generations, the People's Liberation Army has always had a phobia of firepower and has been desperately trying to increase its firepower! The American emperor, on the other hand, has learned our tactics!

After Gu Weijun's soul was touched, he just said one word: Do it! As long as the liver doesn’t die, I’ll do it to death!

In the guest room of Secretary Huang's house, Gu Weijun locked the door and returned to the space. He recalled the memory of the Isuzu light truck from his mind, took out a pen and paper and started drawing!

Why copy a light truck first? Because all it needs is a chassis!

2-ton steering front axle and 3-ton drive rear axle, rear axle main reduction ratio 5.571, number of leaf springs 6 in the front and 5 in the rear, oil brake!

It was unknown day and night in the space. It was not until he heard the knock on the door of the guest room outside the space that he pulled Gu Weijun out of the chassis drawing!

"Here we come!" Gu Weijun returned to his client instantly, rubbed his rabbit-like eyes, and opened the door.

Seeing Gu Weijun like this, Mrs. Huang complained, "Dajun, did you stay up all night?"

"You're still young, so you can't torment your body like this!"

"Don't listen to the two old guys last night who cried all over and wiped away their tears before doing a life-threatening job!"

“The work is never done!”

"Hurry up and wash up! Eat breakfast and go to bed immediately!"

"I'll stop you from doing anything!"

Gu Weijun giggled "hehe", "Auntie, I'm fine, I'm still energetic!"

"That won't work either!" Mrs. Huang suppressed her forcefully, "Listen to Auntie!"

Gu Weijun ate breakfast obediently and then fell into sleep!

Before going to bed, Gu Weijun always felt as if he had forgotten something?

At Tsinghua University, the three girls Jiang Wanhua, Su Wenyi and Liu You were left in front of Dormitory Building No. 8 in a mess in the wind. Gu Weijun has not returned since he left school yesterday!

Is this man so unreliable? This is Su Wenyi's first impression of Gu Weijun!

When he woke up, it was already three o'clock on Sunday afternoon. Gu Weijun jumped up and washed his face with cold water to refresh himself. After saying goodbye to Mrs. Huang, he came to the test workshop.

Today's test workshop was really lively. In addition to the familiar Master Liang, there were also many new faces, but Qian Weichang and Wu Zhonghua were still not seen.

When Gu Weijun inquired with Master Liang, it turned out that Director Zhou had gathered all the machine tools and technicians from Shijingshan Iron and Steel Plant in addition to the machine repair shop early this morning to work overtime together to process the gearbox and Jeep chassis!

Factory Director Zhou and Secretary Huang are also working in the workshop, grinding parts in a decent manner!

There is strength in numbers, and the lively scene lasted until 11 o'clock in the middle of the night, until the gearbox and chassis were successfully assembled!

Then Gu Weijun's Willys Jeep was driven into the test workshop, disassembled and hoisted, and the gearbox and new chassis were installed.

This time, Gu Weijun was still the first to do the road test. After the installation was successful, Gu Weijun immediately looked at Director Zhou. Director Zhou smiled and waved to him. It was actually a joke when he said he would be the first to do the road test on the engine. talk.

As a mature factory director and politician, how could Director Zhou not know that designers are the first testers!

Just to let everyone see that Director Zhou attaches great importance to this matter, absolutely first-rate!

In this way, workers will not slack off!

Gu Weijun waved to everyone, turned around and jumped into the car, clutched the car with his right foot, and put the accelerator into gear with his left foot. Well, it was very smooth!

I pressed the gas pedal and shifted to second gear. After waiting for fourth gear, the jeep suddenly picked up speed and disappeared in a flash!

To be honest, no one else except Gu Weijun could adapt to driving on a road test in the middle of the night!

Because of the transformation brought about by Gu Weijun's several baths in water, even at night, he could clearly see the road conditions and avoid overturning!

After getting onto the main road in the factory area, Gu Weijun directly shifted into 5th gear. The brand-new Willys Jeep engine whined softly, and the speed went straight up to 120, and soon reached 140.

Gu Weijun was also satisfied with the response of the part-time four-wheel drive chassis on the road. When driving over small potholes and depressions, the bumpiness was reduced a lot.

The current Willis's climbing ability is also first-rate. On a 60-degree slope, after changing to first gear, it can be climbed directly without any effort at all!

Satisfied with the test, Gu Weijun switched to 5th gear and quickly returned to the test workshop in the dark.

When Gu Weijun jumped out of the jeep, Director Zhou and Secretary Huang immediately surrounded him and asked in unison: "How is it?"

Gu Weijun grinned happily, "Reporting to Director Zhou and Secretary Huang, the first road test was very successful!"

"Smooth shifting, fast acceleration, few bumps, and strong climbing!"

"Okay! Okay!" Director Zhou rubbed his hands excitedly, "Dajun, come with me to the Metallurgical Department and the First Machinery Department tomorrow morning!"

"We want to show them what a real off-road Jeep is!"
