I can see the commodity price curve

Peter smiled and said, “Boss Zhang, I have heard about your company’s reputation.

But I'm a straightforward person, and I don't really know the exact state of your company's technology.

I wonder if you could show me around?"

Zhang Yue laughed when he heard this: "Since Mr. Peter said so, of course there is no problem.

Come on, I'll take you to my R&D center for a real look.

Let you directly experience our latest technological achievements in the field of ropes. "

Peter's eyes immediately flashed with excitement: "That's really great."

Ma Ziqiang also smiled and nodded: "Let's go and see what other useful things are hidden in the Guoyue Lock Factory."

The group arrived at the R&D center, which was spacious and bright, with various advanced experimental equipment neatly arranged, and R&D personnel were busy and focused.

Zhang Yue first took them to the material analysis room, pointed to several new material samples on the table and said:
“Mr. Pete, this is a new composite material we recently developed, which combines the properties of multiple high-performance fibers.

Not only is its strength several times higher than traditional materials, but it is also lighter and more flexible.”

Peter walked forward, carefully examined the material sample, and gently touched it with his hand to feel its texture, with a look of surprise on his face:

"This does look very unusual. Mr. Zhang, can you tell me more about its specific performance parameters?"

Zhang Yue smiled confidently and handed a test report to Peter:

"Of course, according to our test data, the tensile strength of this new composite material reaches 38.26 MPa, which is 124 times that of ordinary materials.
The elongation at break is also 36%. While ensuring high strength, it also has good flexibility and can adapt to various complex bending and stretching conditions. "

Peter read the report and nodded in praise: "It's incredible, the performance of this material is absolutely leading in the industry.

Mr. Zhang, how did you come up with the idea of ​​combining these materials? "

Zhang Yue patiently explained: "This is due to our R&D team's long-term research and practice on material properties.

We found that different materials have their own unique advantages in different environments.

Through a lot of experiments and optimization of the ratio, we finally found this composite method that can give full play to the characteristics of various materials. "

Then, Zhang Yue led them to the weaving craft display area.

Here are several samples of ropes made using different weaving techniques.

Zhang Yue picked up a rope and said, “Mr. Pete, in addition to material innovation, we have also made a major breakthrough in weaving technology.

Look at this rope, we used a brand new three-dimensional weaving technology.

It can make the fiber distribution inside the rope more even and the force more reasonable. "

In order to more intuitively demonstrate the advantages of this weaving process, Zhang Yue asked the R&D staff to conduct a simple demonstration on site.

They fixed this rope and a rope made using traditional braiding technology on a tensile testing machine at the same time and gradually increased the tension.

As the tension continues to increase, the rope made by traditional braiding technology begins to show obvious deformation and fiber breakage.

However, the rope using the new three-dimensional weaving technology still maintains its good shape and continues to withstand greater tension.

Pete was stunned and couldn't help exclaiming: "This is amazing! This weaving process not only improves the strength of the rope, but also greatly enhances its stability and durability.

Mr. Zhang, I really admire your investment in technology research and development and your innovative ability. "

Zhang Yue smiled modestly: "Mr. Peter, you are too kind. We have always believed that only by continuous innovation can we remain invincible in the fierce market competition.

This is why we hope to cooperate with your company.

We believe that through the integration of resources and technology sharing between the two sides, we will be able to develop better products.”

Afterwards, Zhang Yue showed Pete the innovative achievements of Guoyue Lock Factory in rope surface treatment technology.

He introduced: "We have also developed a special surface coating technology, which not only improves the wear resistance and corrosion resistance of the rope, but also has a certain self-lubricating function.

It can reduce the friction resistance of the rope during use and extend its service life.”

Pete was impressed by the technology again. He said with emotion: "Mr. Zhang, every technology you use in the field of ropes is eye-opening to me.

I am increasingly looking forward to our cooperation, and I believe that our cooperation will surely create remarkable results.”

Ma Ziqiang also smiled and said: “Peter, Zhang Yue’s Guoyue Lock Factory has always been at the forefront of the industry in terms of technology research and development.

This collaboration is a great opportunity for all three of us.

As long as we work together, the future will be full of infinite possibilities."

Hearing Ma Ziqiang's words, Peter's eyes lit up and he immediately said:
“In that case, I have a good opportunity now.

A special department in the United States is looking for a high-performance lock.

They have extremely stringent requirements for their products, which must not only have super strong resistance to damage, but also be able to adapt to various extreme environments.

Such as high temperature, low temperature, high humidity and strong corrosive environment.

Currently, many locks on the market cannot meet their needs, but after seeing your company’s technological achievements, I think you have a great opportunity.”

Zhang Yue and Ma Ziqiang looked at each other and saw excitement and confidence in each other's eyes.

Zhang Yue patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Peter, with our Guoyue Lock Factory's innovations in materials, weaving processes, and surface treatment technology, we are fully capable of meeting their needs.

We will not let this opportunity slip away.”

Ma Ziqiang also echoed: "That's right, our three parties cooperate and complement each other's strengths, so it won't be a problem to win this project."

Pete nodded with satisfaction, then took out his cell phone and quickly dialed a number.

After a brief conversation, he hung up the phone and said to Zhang Yue and Ma Ziqiang with a smile:

“I have already contacted the head of the department, Mr. Obanu, and he has expressed his willingness to communicate with you directly.

I will give you his contact information later, and you can introduce the company's technology and product advantages in detail."

Zhang Yue quickly thanked him, “Thank you so much, Mr. Pete.

This is a rare opportunity for us and we will definitely seize it.”

Soon, Zhang Yue got in touch with Obama.

In the video conference, Obama said seriously: "Mr. Zhang, our project has extremely high requirements for locks and cannot tolerate any carelessness.

What makes you think you can meet our needs?"

Zhang Yue introduced in an orderly manner without any hurry: "Mr. Obanniu, our Guoyue Lock Factory has profound technical accumulation in the field of ropes and locks.

Take the new composite material we developed as an example. Its tensile strength reaches 38.26 MPa, which is 124 times that of ordinary materials.

The elongation at break is also 36%, which ensures both high strength and good flexibility.

The core components of the lock made of this material can withstand huge external impacts without damage. "Speaking of this, Zhang Yue motioned the R&D personnel beside him to show the material performance test video shot in the material analysis room.

As Obama watched the video showing the outstanding performance of the new composite materials under various extreme testing conditions, the serious expression on his face gradually eased.

Zhang Yue then introduced the weaving process: "We also use a new three-dimensional weaving technology to make the internal structure of the lock tighter and the force more even.

This greatly improves the stability and durability of the lock, and it will not loosen or get damaged even if it is subjected to complex external forces for a long time."

Afterwards, the R&D staff showed a video comparing the tensile tests of three-dimensional braided ropes and traditional braided ropes, and Oba Niu nodded repeatedly after watching it.

Finally, Zhang Yue mentioned the surface treatment technology: "The special surface coating technology we developed can not only improve the wear resistance and corrosion resistance of the lock, but also has a self-lubricating function to reduce friction resistance.

This means that the lock can work normally in various harsh environments, greatly extending its service life.

We have conducted experiments and found that locks treated with special coatings can still maintain good performance in strong acid, strong alkali, high temperature and high humidity environments. "

After listening to this, Obanniu pondered for a moment and said, "Mr. Zhang, your technology is indeed excellent, but we need to see actual product samples and more detailed test reports.

If these can meet our requirements, we will consider cooperating with you.”

Zhang Yue responded confidently: “Mr. Obamaniu, don’t worry.

We will prepare product samples and detailed test reports and send them to you as soon as possible.

I believe that our products will not disappoint you.”

After hanging up the video conference, Zhang Yue immediately organized the R&D, production and testing departments to work overtime to produce samples and compile test reports.

With everyone's joint efforts, samples and reports were ready within a few days.

Zhang Yue personally took them to the United States to have face-to-face communication with Obama.

However, when Obama saw the actual samples and carefully read the detailed test report, he showed no comment.

He said, "Boss Zhang, it's not that I don't trust you, no matter how well the data on paper is written, it's just a string of numbers.

If you want to prove that your rope is powerful, you need physical verification."

Zhang Yue looked calm and responded without hesitation: "Mr. Obama, you are right, physical verification is the most convincing.

We are always ready to accept any form of verification, please feel free to arrange it."

Oba Niu nodded slightly, took Zhang Yue out of the office, and drove to a heavily guarded secret base.

When the gate of the base slowly opened, a huge airport came into view.

Rows of uniquely shaped supersonic aircraft are neatly lined up on the runway, sparkling with metallic luster in the sun.

Oba Niu led Zhang Yue straight to a plane and shouted to a burly pilot in a flight suit not far away: "Jamie, come here!"

Jamie walked over quickly, saluted with a standard military salute, and asked, "Sir, any instructions?"

Oba Niu pointed at Zhang Yue, picked up the rope sample in his hand and said:
“This is Boss Zhang, and their company has brought a new type of rope.

Now I need you to use a supersonic aircraft to verify the strength and flexibility of this rope to see if it can withstand the test of extreme environments."

Jamie looked at the rope in Zhang Yue's hand curiously, took the sample, looked at it carefully, and said:

“Sir, no problem.

However, the airflow and pressure changes during supersonic flight are extremely large, which puts a great test on the ropes."

Zhang Yue smiled confidently and said, "Mr. Jamie, just go ahead and do it.

I have complete confidence in our products.”

Jamie nodded and brought Zhang Yue and Oba Niu to the plane.

He expertly secured one end of the rope to a solid part of the aircraft's fuselage.

A special ballast weighing several tons is tied to the other end, which simulates the external tension that the aircraft may withstand under extreme circumstances.

When everything was ready, Jamie boarded the plane and started the engine.

With a low and powerful roar, the plane slowly slid towards the runway.

Zhang Yue and Oba Niu stood in the observation area not far away, their eyes fixed on the plane and the rope.

The plane began to accelerate, getting faster and faster, and soon reached supersonic speed.

The strong airflow hit the fuselage and also tested the rope.

The rope was shaking violently in the strong wind, but there was no sign of breaking.

The counterweight was tightly held by the rope and swayed in the air as the plane flew. The flexibility of the rope was fully demonstrated at this moment.

Jamie paid close attention to the various instrument data in the cockpit, and reported to Obama through the communication equipment:

"Sir, the plane has reached supersonic speed. The rope is under tremendous tension and airflow impact, but it looks to be in good condition."

When Oba Niu heard the report, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes and he turned to look at Zhang Yue.

Zhang Yue had a calm expression and his eyes revealed his confidence in the product.

Time passed minute by minute, and the plane continued to fly at supersonic speed for nearly an hour.

Jamie felt the test was sufficient, so he began to slow down and finally landed smoothly on the runway.

After the plane stopped, Zhang Yue and Oba Niu came to the side of the plane.

I saw that the rope was still intact and the counterweight was being pulled steadily.

Jamie got off the plane, gave a thumbs up, and praised sincerely:
“Boss Zhang, this rope is amazing!

I have never seen such a strong rope that can maintain such excellent performance under such extreme conditions as supersonic flight."

Oba Niu walked forward, patted Zhang Yue's shoulder vigorously, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face:
"Mr. Zhang, your rope is indeed worthy of its reputation. This verification has completely convinced me."

However, Zhang Yue shook his head: "It's just an ordinary supersonic plane. It's totally overkill for my rope."

Obama was stunned: "What did you say?"

Zhang Yue said: "I think it's a waste of time to use your aircraft to test the performance of my rope.

I suggest you test it with a better aircraft."

When these words came out, not only Obama was shocked, Jack also looked at Zhang Yue with a strange expression:

"Mr. Zhang, you are so arrogant. If that's the case, I will be blamed for taking real action."

After that, he picked up the intercom and shouted, "Robert, drive out the most powerful Super Boeing King in our base." (End of this chapter)
