The Immortal Warrior: From Reverse Engineering to Forging Swords for the Country

Chapter 182 The problem of carrier-based aircraft

Today, Hua Guo’s soft girl currency is worth more than 7 yuan to the U.S. dollar.

4 knives is equivalent to a little more than 30 soft girl coins.

Zhang Zhipeng feels that his cooperation with Benz still has great potential.

If all Benz cars use Huaxing's smart car machines, Benz could earn more than 30 billion soft coins a year. Wouldn't that be great?

Leo was also thinking nervously at this time.

Like Lucas, he also believes that the smart car system can greatly increase the performance of Benz cars.

That would increase the price of at least one car by $10,000 or more.

Therefore, spending money to purchase Huaxing's smart car machines can still make a lot of money.

But 2800 soft girl coins are already more than dollars, which is a bit high.

Of course he still hopes to earn more.

"Mr. Zhang, I think maybe we should calculate it directly in US dollars, maybe it's better."

"Why don't you give me 2 dollars for a set of machines? How about that?"

Zhang Zhipeng shook his head and said with a smile: "No! I want soft sister coins."

“I feel like my asking price is really not high at all.”

"Because, I can help you, Benz, completely defeat the luxury car brands in the footbath!"

Leo shook his head and said: "Football cars are not our competitors at all. We have never taken them seriously."

Zhang Zhipeng laughed and said, "Isn't this a bit hypocritical?"

"Mr. Leo, the market share of Footbath Automobile in North America has reached more than 30%! The sales volume of their luxury brands such as Lexus are also quite high now. Your Benz Automobile is losing ground in North America. Situation! Do you really think I don’t know?”

“Even in mainland Europe, you have been affected by footbath trucks!”

"Do you really think I don't know?"

"Mr. Leo must be very eager to easily crush the footbath brand, right?"

"Now, the opportunity is right in front of you."

"If you don't want to cooperate with us, it doesn't matter. I believe there will be other brands rushing to cooperate with us."

BBA is known as the three giants of Hans luxury cars, and later added a Porsche.

Benz is the boss of luxury cars, there is no doubt about it.

However, it is actually struggling very hard now and is facing strong competition from many competitors.

Not only footbath brands, but also other luxury car brands in the country are actually aggressive towards it.

Leo was shocked.

He naturally knows that if Huaxing Automobile chooses to cooperate with BMW and Audi, it will have a strong impact on their Benz.

Why! It seems that it is impossible to lower the price.

Let's cooperate first, and then, during the cooperation process, we may be able to recruit some technical talents from Huaxing Group and build a smart car machine ourselves.

Thinking of this, Leo smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, Mr. Zhang, I agree with your cooperation plan."

"We want a vehicle-machine system worth 2 yuan!"

"I hope we can sign a three-year cooperation agreement first."

Zhang Zhipeng smiled, snapped his fingers and said, "No problem!"

"Mr. Leo, I have another condition: you must purchase at least one million sets of our smart vehicle systems every year."

"And it needs to be split into three payments each year."

"The first tranche is 30 sets, which is 60 billion soft sister coins. The second tranche is 40 sets, and the third tranche is 30 sets. If you want to buy more, additional calculations will be made."

"May I?"

Zhang Zhipeng's idea is very simple, that is, get the money first and then work.

Leo frowned after hearing this. Normally, there is no such form of cooperation, which limits the flexibility of Benz Company.

Moreover, it will also increase Bentz's liquidity tightness.

Not so good for the cost of suppression.

However, the current situation is: Benz is begging for someone else!
Therefore, others are in a relatively strong position.

Leo asked weakly: "Oh, then, can it be settled on a monthly basis?"

"10 sets per month, is that okay?"

Zhang Zhipeng thought that he couldn't act too strong.

He smiled and said, "It's also possible to pay on a monthly basis. You'll pay at the beginning of each month."

Leo nodded and said, "Okay, deal!"

"However, I am now very worried about your production capacity."

"You want to provide smart machines for your own cars. Can your production keep up?"

Zhang Zhipeng smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry about this!"

"Our smart car machines are not produced by Huaxing Automobile, but by our Huaxing Chip Company."

"The production capacity is still quite huge."

"As long as the order is in place, there will be no problem at all."

"You don't have to worry about the installation and matching issues."

"After you sign the agreement, we can send engineers to provide you with installation support training."

"It's very simple, you don't even need to make any modifications to your product."

After hearing this, Leo sighed very much: This Huaxing Group seems to have become a giant-level existence!
The most incredible thing is that such a huge company has not even been listed on the market.

Leo nodded and said, "If you say that, I feel relieved."

"According to your statement, can we expect that our Benz cars will be equipped with a smart car system next month? Including a large central control screen and a full set of functions?"

Zhang Zhipeng smiled and said: "For the sake of quality assurance, I think it is best by mid-January 1997. You can expect that your new mass-produced cars will be equipped with our intelligent vehicle system!"

"I actually hope that your cars will sell like hotcakes because of this system!"

"You should know that I don't like footbaths."

"I hope to suppress the development of footbath cars!"

"This is the main reason why I choose to cooperate with you!"

When Zhang Zhipeng said this, his face was sincere, as if he was confiding in Leo.

Leo nodded thoughtfully and said, "I understand!"

"Actually, I really don't like footbath people either!"

"I think we will definitely work together happily because of this!"

Next, Leo signed a cooperation agreement with Zhang Zhipeng.

After the agreement was signed, both parties were happy.

Leo feels that he has the ability to crush his opponents outside the Chinese market and improve the quality of his products.

Zhang Zhipeng, on the other hand, is happy that he can earn more foreign exchange for the country and that he can hit hard cars.

……

While Zhang Zhipeng and the executives of Benz Company toasted to celebrate the successful cooperation between the two parties, Kobayashi was on the plane flying back to the footbath.

He wants to return to China to report on his work.

He had to tell Fengtian Changlang, the president of Fengtian, about the dangers of Huaxing Automobile.

When he saw Fengtian Changlang, before he could speak, his tears were already falling down.

Fengtian Changlang frowned and said, "Just say what you have to say, why are you crying?"

"In the end what happened?"

Kazuo Kobayashi did not call Fengtian Changlang when he was in China before.

Because he was afraid of being monitored.

Therefore, he quickly returned to China to report on his work.

Because of this, Fengtian Changlang still didn't know about Kobayashi Kazuo's abuse.

Kazuo Kobayashi told the story of how he drove his car and kicked someone out, only to be fatally humiliated.

Huaxing has not yet revealed the humiliation of Kazuo Kobayashi. Because they are still brewing plans for the next wave of publicity.

This incident needs to be carefully considered and how to use it to maximize benefits.

After Fengtian Changlang listened to Kazuo Kobayashi's story, he was very surprised.

"What? Chinese cars are so advanced? This is impossible!"

Kazuo Kobayashi smiled bitterly and said, "President, this is my personal experience."

"Their car manufacturing technology is really amazing now!"

"Their cars are very fuel-efficient, have good handling and extremely fast acceleration. There is no way we can compare with them."

"So, if we don't find a way, we will encounter another powerful opponent in the future market competition!"

"This is very scary for us!"

"At the very least, according to my observation, the Chinese people are now very confident, and they have begun to feel proud of their own products."

"I think we will completely lose the Chinese market in the shortest possible time."

"Then, they will compete with us in many places around the world. We are very likely to be defeated by them."

Kazuo Kobayashi looked solemn as he described the terrible consequences.

Fengtian Changlang was doubtful because he had always believed that automobile manufacturing was the top industry in the world! There are too many comprehensive technologies involved.

It is impossible for China to build good domestically produced cars!
"You said their new car will go on sale soon?" Fengtian Changlang asked.

Kazuo Kobayashi nodded and said: "In fact, they have already started recruiting the first batch of car owners, and the first batch of car owners will be able to mention their cars within a month."

Fengtian Changlang said: "Don't be anxious about this, let alone scare yourself!"

"First think of a way to buy two of all their models. Let's dismantle them and study them."

Fengtian Changlang still spoke carelessly.

Because he still didn't believe that the Chinese people could conquer Zenith Star's technology in less than a year. …

Zhang Zhipeng did not invest too much time in Huaxing Automobile. He was summoned by Zhao Bingkun again in mid-November.

Chengdu Aircraft is developing a carrier-based aircraft, but it does not seem to be going too smoothly.

There are only a handful of countries in the world that can build aircraft carriers, and it is estimated that there are more fingers on both hands to use.

However, there are even fewer countries that can build carrier-based aircraft.

Even if some countries can build their own aircraft carriers, they cannot build their own carrier-based aircraft.

Building a carrier-based aircraft is also very difficult.

First of all, the first difficulty is that the structural strength of carrier-based aircraft must be much stronger than that of other fighter jets. Otherwise, it will not be able to withstand the huge thrust of ejection and take-off and the strong pressure of the arresting cable when landing! If the strength is any lower, there is a risk of disintegration.

On the other hand, the environment in which carrier-based aircraft are located is particularly harsh and they are easily corroded by alternating wet and dry seawater. The anti-corrosion treatment of carrier-based aircraft is a difficult problem. If the anti-corrosion aspect is not done well, it can easily lead to damage to the fighter aircraft, and even serious consequences of aircraft crash and death.

The third problem is the folding design problem of the wings.

The space on an aircraft carrier is actually quite small, so every inch of space is precious.

In order to accommodate more carrier-based aircraft, the wings of the aircraft need to be folded.

The wings are very important for fighter aircraft. The wings provide lift to the aircraft and can also carry weapons. There are also fuel tanks designed on the wings.

When doing folding design, complex oil circuits, circuits and precision sensors are involved.

When a fighter plane flies, the wings are subjected to overloads of up to 9G. In this case, how to overcome metal fatigue must also be considered.

In order for fighters to resist the scanning of opponent radars, the new generation of carrier-based aircraft must also consider perfect stealth design.

If these three problems are not solved, it will be difficult to develop a carrier-based aircraft.

Strengthening the manufacturing structure strength of carrier-based aircraft is actually an easier problem to solve.

For a company like Chengdu Aircraft, it can be easily done.

The most difficult thing to solve is actually the anti-corrosion and wing folding design.

Zhao Bingkun called Zhang Zhipeng and asked him to fly to Sichuan Province.

Zhang Zhipeng took a military plane to Chengdu that day, and then traveled to Chengdu.

Zhao Bingkun was also inspecting Chengfei at this time.

When he saw Zhang Zhipeng, he smiled and said, "I've finally come to you. Haha!"

"Part of this anti-corrosion problem is quite difficult. I still need you to speed up the progress."

Zhang Zhipeng said with a smile: "The anti-corrosion issue of carrier-based aircraft is a complex system project that requires comprehensive and comprehensive consideration."

"I will communicate with Mr. Song and the others to see if we can resolve it as soon as possible."

"Actually, even if the anti-corrosion problem is taken into consideration as much as possible and solved perfectly when the carrier-based aircraft is manufactured, regular anti-corrosion maintenance is still required after the carrier-based aircraft is put on board."

Song Likun, chief engineer of Chengdu Aircraft, said with a smile beside him: "Comrade Zhipeng said it very well. As soon as I heard it, I knew that he had already considered everything in his heart."

Zhang Zhipeng waved his hand and said, "Let's all study together. I'm not omnipotent, haha! Don't think too much of me."

Zhao Bingkun said with a smile: "It's not that everyone wants to think too much of you, but you have always been so awesome!"

"Look at the limousine car you took the lead in developing. It is so advanced. The leader is very satisfied. Every time I go to see the leader, he will smile and say that he hopes to use the car you built soon!"

Song Likun also smiled and said: "I saw the news about the leaders inspecting the automobile industrial park built by Comrade Zhipeng. Your cars are really amazing!"

"People around me are talking about it. We can't afford Hongqi cars, but we can still afford Huaxing cars worth more than 12 yuan!"

"Comrade Zhipeng, can you open your back door and let our company buy a few official cars?"

"I thought the Santana used by our company was pretty good, but compared with your car, it's just dirt."

Zhang Zhipeng smiled and said: "No problem!"

"I'll go back and say hello to my men and ask them to give you three or four cars first, okay?"

"I can't guarantee any more, haha!"

"Actually, we haven't officially started mass production yet. We are just in trial production. The output is not too large yet."

Song Likun hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you, Comrade Zhipeng! Thank you so much! I will send someone to pick up the car myself when the time comes, so I can get the money and goods, haha!"

Zhao Bingkun did not stay at Chengfei for too long. The day after Zhang Zhipeng arrived at Chengfei, he returned to the capital.

Next, Zhang Zhipeng began to get involved in busy work.

To achieve the best anti-corrosion effect, a lot of work needs to be done.

The first step is to conduct a comprehensive anti-corrosion design for the carrier-based aircraft.

The design concept of corrosion resistance must be integrated into the overall design, production and use of the aircraft.

The first thing to consider is that the sealing must be absolutely guaranteed, and ventilation, drainage, accessibility and stress corrosion resistance design work must be strengthened.

The anti-corrosion work of connectors and special structural components must be done sufficiently carefully.

In short, every small component must be considered.

This is really a very complex job.

In addition to the overall comprehensive anti-corrosion protection design, Zhang Zhipeng also needs to help research corrosion-resistant materials and anti-corrosion coatings with excellent comprehensive performance.

In order to ensure the highest corrosion resistance, every metal part must be protected by plating, covering or deposition...

Different anti-corrosion coatings are developed and tested for different parts of the aircraft.

Under the leadership of Zhang Zhipeng, a large number of professionals and elite soldiers were mobilized.

It took more than a month to finally develop a complete anti-corrosion solution for carrier-based aircraft.

Moreover, Zhang Zhipeng also formed a systematic and highly operable overall anti-corrosion design plan for carrier-based aircraft.

While doing research and development on anti-corrosion design, Zhang Zhipeng also led another team to study the wing folding technology.

Compared with anti-corrosion technology, this wing folding is much simpler.

Just design a sturdy and reliable folding method and you're done.

Because there were already many reference plans, Zhang Zhipeng and his team spent two or three days developing a wing folding hydraulic system.

The three major problems of carrier-based aircraft have also been comprehensively solved in more than a month.

Zhang Zhipeng even led his team to build a small carrier-based aircraft prototype according to his own design plan, and conducted long-term tests in various simulated harsh marine environments.

As a result, he found that his plan was generally quite perfect.

The results were quickly accepted.

Song Likun sighed and said: "If Comrade Zhipeng takes action, there will be nothing that cannot be solved!"

"All the problems of carrier-based aircraft have been solved now."

"The stumbling blocks that prevented us from owning an aircraft carrier have all been removed!"

When Zhao Bingkun heard that all the problems with carrier-based aircraft had been solved, he rushed over happily. After listening to Zhang Zhipeng's explanation, he nodded and said, "Okay!"

"The carrier-based aircraft has also been solved!"

"Then our aircraft carrier will be ready!"

He rubbed his hands, his eyes full of anticipation.

Zhang Zhipeng said with a smile: "It should be considered very promising, right? Haha!"

"Director Zhao, I think our 10,000-ton large-scale drive should actually be put on the agenda!"

"If you want to achieve a truly great renaissance, you must build a powerful navy!"

"Only when we have more and more powerful battleships can we truly become a real chess player on this big chessboard of the world!"

Zhao Bingkun smiled and said: "If you want to do it, it's totally fine, I can support you!"

"Isn't it relatively easy to drive a 10,000-ton truck?"

Zhang Zhipeng nodded and said: "Theoretically, this is true, but the increase in the tonnage of the warship means that the entire structure of the ship must be redesigned, and the combat capabilities and protection of our ships must be continuously improved based on the experience and lessons of 052D. ability."

“This all requires a lot of effort.”

Zhao Bingkun shook his head and said: "I don't understand any of this. Anyway, I know that I am right to support you!"

"Comrade Zhipeng! Our country's economy has developed rapidly in the past few years!"

"Good companies are constantly emerging, and people's income is also increasing rapidly!"

"Our national strength is also growing rapidly!"

"This is all inseparable from your efforts!"

"Someone has made statistics. Our economic development began to accelerate in 1990. By 1993, the average annual GDP growth had reached %!"

"1996 is coming to an end. According to statistics, our GDP growth this year is likely to reach an astonishing %! It is really touching!"

"Our economy has nearly quadrupled in the past six years!"

“The people have become visibly richer.”

"We can create such an economic miracle, and you should be the first to take credit!"

Obviously, Zhao Bingkun was really excited.

That's why he said so much in one breath.

Zhang Zhipeng shook his head with a smile and said, "Director Zhao, I just want to say that we still have a long way to go to make this big country with a population of more than one billion truly prosperous and even live a life like Lizafang!"

"We must seize all the technological industries we can win. Maybe we can still hope to become a truly developed country!"

"You know, the combined population of all developed countries in the world is only over one billion!"

"If we were as rich and powerful as they are, do you think many so-called developed countries would slip into the ranks of developing countries?"

Zhao Bingkun raised his hand and said, "I don't care if they get poorer or not! As long as we get rich and developed ourselves, that's good!"

"We want to grab the automobile industry, and we also want to grab all other high value-added industries!"

"Of course, this is why we must vigorously develop our military strength!"

"We must have the ability to protect our own interests!"

Song Likun was listening to the two people talking, and he was also very excited.

What patriot doesn’t want his motherland to become stronger and stronger?
At this moment, a staff member walked in and said with an excited smile: "Mr. Song, our Huaxing cars have been delivered. With Comrade Zhipeng's note, Huaxing Company has approved 6 cars for us."

Song Likun immediately became energetic: "Really? That's really great."

He turned to look at Zhao Bingkun and Zhang Zhipeng: "Director Zhao, Comrade Zhipeng, do you want to go and see them together?"
