Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle.

Chapter 111 The trial production of the "Jinggangshan" brand car was successful (subscription required)
After saying that, Secretary Wang and Director Zheng put the design drawings they got from Yang Ning on the table.

The technical staff attending the meeting did not bother to be polite and immediately spread out the drawings and started to look at them.

"Lao Wang, why don't you go back and rest first? You don't understand the technology, so don't tire yourself out."

Director Zheng had just finished discussing a problem on the drawing with a technician when he looked up and saw Secretary Wang sitting next to him smoking with red eyes, so he tried to persuade him.

"Just do your own thing and leave me alone. I'm here so that at least you can have a hot meal tonight."

After saying that, Secretary Wang stood up and walked out, probably to instruct the canteen to prepare a midnight snack for them.

After three days of sleepless nights and three days of hard work by all the technical staff of the Second Automobile Works, during which they called Yang Ning from time to time for advice, they finally understood Yang Ning's design drawings.

"Okay, since we have thoroughly understood the blueprints, let's take a day off. Starting tomorrow, we will begin trial-making engine parts. Also, tell the modeling workshop to quickly make the molds. It's better to finish early than to delay things."

Director Zheng and his colleagues have been so busy these days that they haven't had time to go home. He looks haggard, but he is very energetic.

"When the time comes, we will all go to the workshop to monitor it and solve any problems on the spot. If anyone dares to hinder me, I will make him uncomfortable for the rest of his life."

So the next day, the Second Automobile Works entered into a large-scale battle mode. Except for very important parts, all the equipment was put into the manufacture of our first car.

Not long after, Yang Ning completed the design of the gearbox and chassis.

The gearbox Yang Ning uses is a continuously variable transmission, which will not be applied to automobile technology until three years later, which is what we often call a CVT gearbox.

Speaking of this, we have to mention that the design concept of the CVT gearbox was actually proposed by Leonardo da Vinci five hundred years ago. At that time, we were still in the period of Emperor Yongle. It was not until four hundred years later that the first CVT gearbox was designed. It is hard not to wonder whether Leonardo da Vinci was a time traveler, and he traveled through time with a cheat.

Otherwise, how could they come up with a design concept that was 400 years ahead of mankind? From the proposal of the design concept to its large-scale application, it took a full 500 years to be ahead of mankind.

Among them, Yang Ning also designed a steering assist system and seat belts, which can greatly reduce the difficulty of driving and increase the safety of passengers.

With all the technical drawings, the entire car manufacturing process of Second Automobile Works was accelerated a lot.

You have to know that in history, without any technology and equipment, it took us only 33 days to design and produce our first Dongfeng sedan, which was faster than the surrender of the Gallic chickens during World War II. Then it took another two months to complete the design and production of the first Hongqi sedan.

Second Automobile Works now has the technology and equipment, so you can imagine how fast they are building cars.

When the top leader saw our first car produced by Second Automobile, he smiled and pointed at the raised red logo on the black hood of the car and said in Mandarin with a Hunan accent: "This is the first car we produced by ourselves, and this logo looks like the mountain where we started. The red mountain is very vivid. From now on, this car will be called Jinggangshan (to avoid suspicion)!"

Everyone present applauded enthusiastically, except Yang Ning, who appeared as a designer, who was stunned for a moment when he heard these words.

"No, could it be that my painting was too abstract? Even so, how come BAIC still couldn't escape the fate of Jinggangshan?" In any case, our first independently developed car was finally successfully launched.

As for what to do with Hongqi in the future, to be honest, Yang Ning himself didn't know. Well, let's wait until their big trucks are produced.

With the return of this great man, there will be a large number of outstanding scientists who will resolutely give up the favorable living and scientific research environment outside and eventually choose to return home to contribute their wisdom and talents to our construction.

With the successful production of the first car, Second Automobile Works finally straightened its back. If anyone dared to suggest dismantling their production line again, Secretary Wang and Director Zheng would be able to push them back with confidence.

Moreover, after the National Day, the new factory building of the Second Automobile Works has been completed. After completing the production of the first car, they will immediately move to the new factory area and start mass production of the "Jinggangshan" car.

The successful production of "Jinggangshan" brand cars not only boosted our own morale, but also attracted the attention of others.

The first is Big Brother, who has a close relationship with us now. After all, we cannot do without the help of Big Brother in all our major areas.

Without their help, we independently designed and developed our own car, which naturally attracted the attention of Big Brother.

Big Brother had already vaguely guessed the deal we made with John Bull behind their backs. Although he was unhappy, he didn't say much on the surface. After all, even Big Brother himself now has many trade dealings with hostile forces.

But we were also surprised that we were able to use this equipment to develop and produce cars so quickly.

After obtaining our consent, Big Brother's experts here personally test-drove the car.

This car lived up to expectations. After the big brother experts got off the car, they kept exclaiming at our staff, which showed their evaluation of this car.

It’s too sad to talk too much about Big Brother’s car production technology.

If you want them to produce tanks and military vehicles with excellent performance, that's no problem. They can come up with a large number of world-leading technologies.

But when it comes to car production technology, Big Brother is at a loss.

When it comes to manufacturing private cars for personal needs, the main focus is on making sure the car looks good enough to drive.

You can imagine that from the end of World War II to the separation of Big Brother, which is nearly half a century, Big Brother’s private car production technology has not changed, mainly because Big Brother is stable.

It’s no wonder that Big Brother has been reluctant to support our small car production technology. Maybe it’s because they themselves don’t understand it?
It would be strange if Big Brother was not surprised when faced with the car designed by Yang Ning with some later technology.
