Smart Industrial Empire

"Everyone, this is the latest heavy-duty CNC floor-mounted boring and milling machine jointly developed by Jiuyi and NHI. It can process heavy machinery parts ten meters long, three meters wide, and two meters high. The machining accuracy can guarantee a straightness of 0.1mm. The flatness of the added surface within a square meter is 0.05mm..." Deng Lanqing, who is about to take over the post of the Jiuyi Research Institute, introduced the heavy equipment being debugged to the members of the inspection team.

This equipment was customized by a shipyard in Shanghai. It is mainly used for boring and milling of some heavy-duty marine parts.

Some key components on ships have high space requirements for empty or other shaped surfaces for final assembly.

Of course, this enables the equipment to have a relatively high positioning accuracy for some processed holes during the machining process, thus giving birth to a special CNC equipment-coordinate boring machine.

Jig boring machines, even in China, cost millions of the smallest equipment, and they are all used to process some large parts with relatively high precision.

Small parts basically do not need this kind of equipment, after all, the machining center can control the precision to a very high precision.

"Continue to show them other equipment. They don't need these equipment. What they need are some three- to five-meter CNC gantry milling machines and four-axis machining centers..." Deng Lanqing saw that these foreign guys were very interested in such equipment. Lack of interest, could not help but frown.

Yun Fei hastily stepped forward and said to her.

Many of the equipment in this laboratory have been seen by these half-understood foreigners. Although they are conducting different research and researching different projects, for them, there is not much difference.

Equipment such as CNC floor boring and milling machines are only in demand in countries with heavy industries such as heavy machinery and equipment manufacturing and shipbuilding.These countries allied with China, even if they have a coast.Few of them wanted to build a strong navy either.

The navy needs not only money, but also technology.

What these guys need is high-end equipment for manufacturing missiles and some spare parts for aircraft. At the same time, they also need heavy equipment that can process or repair large parts on heavy equipment such as tanks.

The military factories in these countries are generally able to produce and maintain some ordinary guns, and even some key spare parts of tanks and armored vehicles need to be imported from the country of origin.

The former Soviet Union has disintegrated, and the old Maozi's government is now so poor that it doesn't say anything about price increases, in order to maintain relations with the United States.Even the export of some basic accessories is constantly getting stuck in their necks.

Especially Iraq and Iran, countries that are being sanctioned by the international community.

Years of the Iran-Iraq War made them realize that if they fought only with the purchased weapons, the entire country's economy would collapse within a few days.

It has bulged the pockets of the countries that sell weapons to the United States and Russia, but they have suffered themselves.

This is something no one wants to see.

Over the years, they have continuously imported technology from China, and in reality many conventional military equipment can be produced by themselves.

This time, we obtained medium-range missiles from China that can hit hundreds of kilometers and have an accuracy within [-] meters.No matter which country wants to beat them, it has to think carefully.

Moreover, what Iran has, Iraq must have; what Iraq has.Iran also has to have it.Although the Iran-Iraq War has set back the economies of their two countries for decades, they both have the black gold that the entire international community needs-oil!

"This workshop is our research and test workshop for high-end CNC equipment. Here, the main thing is to continuously improve the technical level and precision level of our machining centers. At present, we have mastered both the vertical four-axis machining center and the horizontal four-axis machining center. Mature manufacturing technology. Using our technology, Jiuyi Heavy Industry has provided dozens of equipment to some of our domestic precision machinery manufacturers..."

"Everyone can take a look, but please don't enter the yellow area where the staff around the equipment are located..." There are some things.I'm too lazy to introduce these guys, anyway, they have already signed a supply contract with the government, and they already have a detailed understanding of the performance of the equipment when they were in the capital.

"Mr. Yunfei, our boss wants to talk to you after this visit. I don't know if you have time..." After Yunfei had just told these guys to go and see by themselves, he asked if there was anything he didn't understand. The staff who are working next to those equipment.

However, it was discovered that those who were interested in these devices were all domestic officials!

Yunfei also knew that there must be many senior management and technical directors from other state-owned machine tool factories accompanying them. Anyway, he told these researchers that no matter how they asked, they couldn't talk about the core things.

And when Yun Feizhen was about to find an opportunity to sneak out to smoke a cigarette, a young Chinese man ran over to find him, saying that their boss wanted to talk to him.This is clearly a translation.

Perhaps, not just translation.

"Who is your boss?" Yun Fei asked, frowning.

"Our boss' surname is Hussain..." the young man put his mouth next to Yunfei's ear and whispered.

"He's in my workshop now?" Yun Fei looked around. There were more than a dozen No. 20 people from two countries in the Middle East. In his world, the Hussein family who ruled Iraq basically Is a household name.

The Yankees gave them too much coverage.

Yun Fei really didn't expect that Saddam would send his immediate family members to China. Could it be that what he said to those who came from China last time had an effect?

"No, Mr. Hussein came to Rongcheng with their investigation team, but his identity in the investigation team is only a driver of the team..." the interpreter said with a toothache.

"The inspection team has to return to the capital after visiting our research institute. Where did he get the time to interview me?" Yun Fei frowned even more tightly.

"The delegation will not return to the capital today. After all, this is the first time for many people to come to China. When they come to Rongcheng, they have to see the giant pandas before going back, otherwise they will come to China for nothing..." The translator said with a smile.

"Aren't you Chinese?" Yun Fei was stunned. If this guy was Chinese, people in Iraq would not be so stupid as to let him pass the message.

As soon as Yun Fei asked, he felt that it was unnecessary.

"My parents used to be Chinese, but they were both victims of the great turmoil in the country. They worked as educated youths in the Construction Corps in the west, and then they sneaked out of the country and entered Iraq through Afghanistan. President Saddam Hussein gave They have a job..." The young man said with a smile indifferently.

But the sound is very small.

"Where is he going to meet?"

"This is your site, he hopes you can arrange a place, a safe place..." the young man said seriously.

"If he can go back to Rongcheng without the members of the inspection team, he can go to my house and wait. If you can't find a place, my driver Xiaoliuzi is outside right now. You can ask him to take you there in my car." ..." Yun Fei thought for a while.replied to the young man.

He originally thought that this guy was an interpreter arranged by the country for those guys abroad.

But I didn't expect that this guy was actually an informed descendant.

"Everyone, this laboratory is the core laboratory of our entire Jiuyi Group. All of our most advanced technologies are here, especially this one - the flexible manufacturing unit. Especially the clamping and disassembly in the middle Theoretically speaking, industrial robots that process parts and automatically change tools should be the most advanced industrial robots in China, or at least the first-class robots in the world..." The flexible manufacturing system that was visited at the end was the core of the whole visiting group.

This is a fully automatic unmanned workshop!

Although it is still experimental, there are always various problems.However, for some large-scale parts production, using this, the production efficiency during the average working time is much higher than the labor efficiency.

Once this experimental study is successful.There will be countless migrant workers unemployed throughout China.Of course, the manufacturing equipment for this system is also extremely expensive.According to Deng Lanqing's original vision, everything in this production workshop is operated by industrial robots, from the initial blank to the final finished product, and there are also robots that assist in the handling of auxiliary materials and waste, and even the floor is clean and hygienic. It is to use a sweeping robot to work...

The only thing that needs people to operate is the central control room and various engineers to maintain the operation of the entire production workshop.

Now this workshop has only completed a small part. If Deng Lanqing's conception is followed, the entire workshop will be fully completed to achieve the prototype she expected, and it will take more than 100 billion yuan...

That is to say, for a boss like Yunfei, it would be impossible for any boss, or the leader of any state-owned unit, to let her mess around like this.

Of course, Yun Fei would never let Deng Lanqing do this if he was just investing.Rather, during the experimental process of this workshop, a series of advanced robot technologies will be derived, which can be used in various manufacturing industries, and the largest market is the automobile manufacturing industry.

How hot this industry will be in China in the future, every Chinese understands.Automatic handling, automatic welding, automatic assembly, etc., are basically the topics that all automation control companies are researching.

The Chinese are on top, and it has been only since 2000 that it has started to falter.Moreover, China's cheap labor makes the number of domestic robots used in China quite small.

In Japan's auto industry, there are an average of 28 auxiliary robots for every [-] industrial workers, while in the United States and Germany, there are more than ten robots.

In China's auto industry, including those unmanned automatic welding workshops, there are only less than four robots among an average of [-] auto industry workers!

Of course, it is not a simple matter to engage in robot research and development. If you don't want to talk about technology, just talking about funds is the biggest problem.

This is basically burning money.

Of course, once this unmanned mechanical production workshop is successfully launched, it proves that they have completely reached the forefront of the entire world in terms of robots.

After many inquiries, the unmanned production workshop in Japan that Yun Fei had heard about was not as powerful as in the legend.There are still many places where manual work is used.

It is just rumors to say that the annual output value of their entire workshop is hundreds of millions of dollars, there are only more than 20 engineers, and the workshop director also serves as a guard.

Originally, at the beginning of this manufacturing system, Yunfei never thought of letting these guys see their latest progress.

But now that many orders in his hands have been robbed by others, he can only present this project that has just started in the eyes of these people.

What do these small countries lack the most?

skilled worker!

Especially skilled technical workers.

And their system, even at the initial stage, can allow some mass-produced parts to replace skilled workers who need to be trained in an unmanned production mode.

In this way, these skilled workers can be freed from the most strenuous tasks.

"Boy Yun, when did you start this project? Why don't we know?" Listening to Deng Lanqing's introduction and her vision for this unmanned workshop.The big leader's eyeballs almost fell out.

This is true modernity!

"This project is just a derivative of our flexible manufacturing project. You also know that our research institute is not strict with the approval of some projects. All I want is the result. As for how the engineer in charge achieves this result, it doesn't matter to me at all." The matter..." Yun Fei was telling the truth, after Deng Lanqing had been running this workshop for a while, he found that the manpower, material resources and funds needed were too huge, so he had to consult with his boss.

For this project, Deng Lanqing's marriage fell through.

Her senior brother in the United States.And found another woman to marry...

"How long will it take to complete such a workshop?" The second leader really did not expect that Jiuyi Research Institute, a private scientific research institute that has only been established for a few years, has such strong scientific research capabilities.

"This is not even a prototype. If we want to reach the level we envisioned, maybe we won't be able to do it in our lifetime..." Yun Fei said with a wry smile.

He was telling the truth.

All kinds of top professionals are needed here, and a large number of grassroots technical personnel are also needed to assist.If you want to work here, the things that undergraduates have learned are basically not enough.

"This requires a lot of money?" Su Guangxiang had always believed that Jiuyi Heavy Industry's overthrow of a state-owned factory was all due to luck.But now seeing these money-burning research projects of Jiuyi Research Institute, a sense of powerlessness suddenly arises.

When domestic machine tool factories were still researching three-axis and four-axis machining centers, Jiuyi Heavy Industry had already started the research and development of robots in the final form of machining centers!

"This workshop. After the prototype is built, it will require tens of billions of funds..." Yun Fei's words immediately made Su Guangxiang swallow what he wanted to say about the state's subsidy.

Just such a project that only uses machinery to replace labor requires tens of billions of funds!

Who dares to play like Yun Fei?

"Since it is possible to be unsuccessful for the rest of your life, and you have to spend countless funds, what's the use? Don't you have so much money that you have nowhere to spend it? Although the country's economy has developed over the years, many places are still very poor. Why don't you donate this money to help the poor..." The big leader knew that Yun Fei would never do anything that was not beneficial.

What is said for the country, for the nation, is used to fool people!

Everything this kid does is to make money!

Earn more money!

This is one of the most typical businessmen to do.

Most of the time, when they are idle and bored, these high-level people are discussing what this kid Yunfei does with so much money, but no matter how they analyze it, there is no answer that satisfies all of them.

This kid earns so much money, apart from investing heavily in technology research and development, he rarely uses the money to satisfy his own desires.Even the car he drives now was bought by Li Lu for him.

Now that he has earned so much money, he still smokes ten yuan a pack of Hongtashan, eats ordinary work meals like everyone else at work, and even his women basically earn their own money. of……

In the end, the leaders came to a conclusion that this kid Yun Fei was reincarnated from a stingy landlord and rich man!The landlord Lao Cai is always very stingy, stingy to his own people, stingy to those around him, and all the money he earns is locked and hidden in the cellar.

Making money is his greatest pleasure.

Of course, these are the thoughts of those leaders who do not understand Yunfei.

Yun Fei himself doesn't know what to do to make money.In the beginning, he did it for the sake of not lacking in research funds, but he still wanted to make money if he did not lack in research funds.

Perhaps, making money is his only pleasure, just like the old Bill, earning a lifetime of money, but in the end he is going to invest it all in charity.

Of course, Yun Fei would definitely not do such a thing.Maybe, when he gets really bored in the future, he will call old Bill, Li Ka-shing, and Buffett together to play mahjong.Hit 1000 million dollars a shot!

"Who says I'm not short of money? Now I owe more than one billion loans from the bank! We've done enough charity work over the years, which organization in the whole country is as good as our angel fund? This project may not be very useful, but some automatic control technologies derived from this project will be much more useful. Isn’t there a shortage of people in the Pearl River Delta and Yangtze River Delta now?” Yun Fei rolled his eyes, Is this big leader too thick-skinned?

My money didn't come from the wind.

Hearing what Yun Fei said, everyone immediately understood.This kid is putting together a lot of related technologies for research!

"Xiaoyun, have you ever thought about upgrading your research institute? To a research institute that can train doctoral students?" This kid can't always let him poach people from the country's training institutions.

"No!" Yun Fei shook his head firmly.

He knows better than anyone what kind of doctrine these officials are playing.

In reality, the Jiuyi Research Institute has become a talent training base for some domestic companies.If they had the qualifications to recruit doctoral students and the trainers had their certificates in their hands, Deng Lanqing, his boss, would probably be annoyed to death.

It was hard to train a person, but he was poached by others, heartwarming.

And now the people they train here are definitely more practical than the doctors and post-doctors trained by the National Academy of Sciences. However, the people here generally only have a bachelor’s degree. past.will not pay much attention,

The young people in the September [-]st Research Institute deeply understand this truth through their precepts and deeds on the neglected middle-aged powerful factions dug out of the National Research Institute or some state-owned units in the September [-]st Research Institute.

Without a certificate, no matter how capable he is, he has no status in the world!

"Don't refuse so simply. If there is anything, we can discuss it carefully. If there is something good, don't keep hiding it..." Du Yaobang also felt that Yun Fei was too selfish.

"No need to discuss! It's over. The visit is over, now everyone can go back to their respective homes and find their own mothers!" Yun Fei didn't bother to pester them.

It is estimated that Deng Lanqing explained almost as well as they did.These guys certainly didn't expect to encounter such a thing during their trip to China. After discussing it after returning home, they might be able to provide themselves with a lot of orders.

"Boy, you're so dishonest. Sun Lin and his fellow academicians are the wealth of the entire country. You can't just leave them here to train talents for you alone!" The second leader had an exchange with Yun Fei last night , found that he really had a prejudice against this kid.

It was precisely because of his prejudice that he almost left his position sadly.

If it wasn't for Li Lu, maybe his life after retirement would be very sad.

What they talked about in the private room of Longxiang Hotel last night, and what agreement they reached, no one except the four parties knew.

The only thing is, at the end of the show, both the big leader and the second leader left with a little drunk, and Yun Fei was so drunk that he even called Li Lu his mother. can not say it clearly.

Normally, Li Lu likes to settle accounts after the fall.

Age was originally Li Lu's flaw!Yun Fei was undoubtedly pinching Li Lu's sore feet. Although he was drunk, it was still an unforgivable thing for Li Lu.

As Yun Fei guessed, even after the visit, the technical officials from Pakistan, Iran and other countries kept pestering Li Lu to ask about the flexible manufacturing system they were researching.

They are not only short of money, but also short of skilled workers.

And they don't have a mature and complete technical worker training system like China, so the Jiuyi Research Institute's model of operating three or more CNC equipment with one robot is unparalleled to them.

At that time, not only will they not need to import some ordinary mechanical products, they will even be able to export them.

And Iraq and Iran are more eager for this.The long-term war caused them to lose a large number of people. In addition, they are small and few people. Some basic jobs are replaced by robots, which liberate people and put them in more critical positions. This is the solution to their problems. The biggest problem of development bottleneck.

In particular, with these devices, they can vigorously develop their economy. At that time, whoever dares to claim that they do not love peace and resort to military force, it is estimated that brothers in the entire Middle East will not agree. (To be continued..)
