What the hell is a private enterprise?

Chapter 80 Strange Combination

"50 25-horsepower diesel engines and 3 test prototypes. Please sign for Manager Chen Xiaojie."

"I am!"

At the gate of Sanwang Agricultural Machinery Factory, Chen Xiaojie quickly signed his name to receive the goods on behalf of Sanwang Factory.

He paid no attention to the 25-horsepower diesel engines, but went straight to the three high-horsepower V6 and V12 engine prototypes that Gaijin had brought over.

Because of their large size and extreme cost, a dedicated truck was used for these three engines.

After unloading, the senior management and technical staff of the entire agricultural machinery factory gathered in the yard and watched the wooden boxes of the three engines being dismantled one by one.

When the V430 naturally aspirated engine labeled GJ24D12L was revealed, everyone couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

This monster, with a total weight of 811 kg and an output of 430 horsepower, is at least one size larger than an ordinary truck engine.

The smallest 265-horsepower V6 engine has a total weight of 510 kilograms, which is much heavier than that of an ordinary truck.

However, they are tank diesel engines inherited from the B2 series. The layouts of several engines are relatively compact, and the two V6 engines are not exaggerated.

"Well, I told you Gaijin has the ability."

Chen Xiaojie knocked on the cold and heavy engine proudly, making a dull sound.

"With a 10-liter displacement, it must be very powerful at low speeds."

An old craftsman was looking at the nameplate on the engine and was shocked by the numbers on it.

"Hurry up and find a car to load it on, and let's give it a try."

Chen Xiaojie looked at several technicians. Finally, an older man stepped forward and gestured the size of the smallest engine. After thinking for a moment, he said:

"The factory has a Dongfeng EQ140 with an inline 6-cylinder engine that weighs over kilograms. This engine should be able to fit in the truck.

But I definitely need to modify the engine mounts and gearbox... 265 horsepower is too much, and I'm afraid the gearbox won't be able to handle it and break down."

Chen Xiaojie: "If it breaks, we can fix it. Besides, we already have the engine, but we can't buy a gearbox?"

The old master nodded and said that manual transmissions are different from automatic transmissions. Their structure is extremely simple and any machinery shop with a little bit of ability can make them. There is no threshold.

With Chen Xiaojie's affirmation, several technicians, led by the master, immediately drove the EQ140 over, opened the hood and removed the original engine.

Dongfeng's EQ140 is a pointed-nose truck, and the EQ6100 engine it uses is also a legendary engine. It is a 5.4-liter inline 6-cylinder engine that can output 134 horsepower.

The (GJ) 265D10L is only 80 kg heavier, but has more than double the power.
After removing the engine, the mechanic first confirms whether the gearbox is compatible and then measures the engine installation size.

Fortunately, the EQ140 cabin space is very large, and some cutting and welding modifications are required. The transmission spline size is not correct and needs to be changed.

Fortunately, the agricultural machinery factory has plenty of tools and parts, so it’s not too troublesome.

Chen Xiaojie personally watched the technicians busy at work and used money to immediately make them enthusiastically devote themselves to their work.

From morning to evening, it took a whole day, and with the efforts of seven or eight technicians, the 256D10L engine was successfully installed in the engine room.

An apprentice connected the battery, then sat in the cockpit and started the engine under the expectant gaze of the crowd.

"Om-"

"Buzz-buzz-"

Sweat dripped from the apprentice's head. He tried three or four times in a row but failed to light the fire.

"This……"

Chen Xiaojie and the other senior executives who rushed over after hearing the news all had changed expressions. How could they not even light a fire?

At this time, the master slapped his forehead:
"I forgot, this engine is too large, the original starter and battery can't power it!"

As he said this, he drove the apprentice out of the car, then found a long crank, inserted it into the front of the car, and started it by hand.

As soon as he started, he felt a heavy resistance and quickly asked for help. Then the two of them began to slowly shake it.

After about a dozen laps, as the voices in the cabin gradually grew louder, a powerful sound of horse hooves "dengdeng" rang out.

The V6 engine without an exhaust pipe was emitting gas, and the sound of the engine making the whole car tremble.

The old master lay in the cabin and gently pulled the throttle. Chen Xiaojie immediately felt a rumbling sound all around him and could feel the terrifying horsepower in the cabin.

After another simple adjustment, the old master confirmed that there was no problem, closed the engine compartment, and nodded to Chen Xiaojie. "Let me try."

The latter immediately climbed into the cockpit, and the brave factory director's brother-in-law also sat in the co-pilot seat, and immediately felt something different moving under his butt.

Chen Xiaojie put the car in gear and gently released the clutch.

The huge torque is instantly transmitted to the axle through the clutch. With nearly double the torque, the entire truck seems to jump forward.

This scared him, and he quickly grabbed the steering wheel, drove to an open space and stepped on the accelerator.

With a powerful roar, the EQ140 accelerated as fast as a motorcycle and almost hit the wall.

“It’s so exciting!”

In the past, when driving a truck, it took a long time to accelerate after pressing the accelerator, but now the power is almost available on demand, and there is almost no limit once you press the accelerator.

Chen Xiaojie felt that nothing could be measured with an empty truck, so he asked someone to stuff all the scrap metal and discarded parts from the agricultural machinery factory into the truck bed.

The EQ5, with a standard load capacity of 140 tons, is packed with a lot of metal, weighing at least seven or eight tons.

The truck slowly drove to a slope outside the agricultural machinery factory, then braked and stopped.

If an overloaded truck dares to start on a slope, it will definitely slide. It can only go up by backing up and accelerating.

However, this time Chen Xiaojie released the clutch and stepped hard on the accelerator, and the overloaded truck, pulling a pile of scrap metal, climbed up slowly without any effort.

The senior executives and technicians who came out to watch were all stunned. They had never seen a truck with such great power.

This is still the smallest 265 horsepower. What will it be like if 365 horsepower or 430 horsepower are installed?
The other shareholders of the agricultural machinery factory were completely convinced. Compared with the expensive and shoddy products sold by Yuchai, Gaijin Manufacturing was far superior.

The previous 25-horsepower diesel engine was also put through environmental testing, and the actual quality was no worse than that of imported products.

Chen Xiaojie's brother-in-law felt that the truck still had some power left, and shouted excitedly from the passenger seat:

"This engine is only 12,000? Buy it now!

It's a waste of talent to only be able to pull seven or eight tons. It should be able to pull at least twenty tons!"

"Brother-in-law, why don't you try the other two? The price isn't high either."

"I'll definitely try it, but that 430-horsepower one is way too overbearing! I can't imagine how a Sibu Xiang could use that much horsepower!"

At this time, there were many customers visiting the agricultural machinery factory, and they opened their eyes wide when they saw the powerful EQ140 outside.

Even if it is overloaded, it can still easily climb steep slopes. Isn’t it perfect for muddy areas in the mountains?
As soon as Chen Xiaojie got out of the car, a group of customers surrounded him and touched the truck to find out what was going on.

Chen Xiaojie brazenly claimed this was a new model from the agricultural machinery factory. As for why it resembled the EQ140, it was because all trucks looked like this. You must have mistaken them.

Moreover, our Sanwang factory specially provides three power options: 265 horsepower, 360 horsepower and 430 horsepower, ensuring that you will never think that the horsepower is too low.

As a result, before the modification plan was even finalized, a group of customers were clamoring to place orders. After trying it themselves, they couldn't wait to drive back to their own sawmill.

By the time all the customers had left, Chen Xiaojie had already received orders for 10 units, with the price ranging from a minimum of 8 yuan to a maximum of 12 yuan, which is more expensive than the genuine new EQ140 diesel version.

其中最低配的265匹版本了7台，360匹版本2台，还有不差钱的老板要一台430匹的尝尝鲜。

The latter two types of agricultural machinery factories have no loading plans yet, but the customers don't care and only ask for delivery as soon as possible.

……

"Hello? What?"

At the Gaijin Shipyard, Wu Long, who was attending the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the launching of a fishing boat, was stunned when he heard the phone call.

Sanwang Agricultural Machinery Factory liked those engines very much and believed that they would sweep away their competitors once they were launched on the market.

However, due to its own weak foundation, it is hoped that Gaijin Shipyard can also provide a dedicated high-torque gearbox, jointly develop trucks, and jointly enter the heavy-duty truck market.

No, this is nothing.

Tang Wen, who was passing by, saw Wu Laoer staring at the phone in a daze, so he asked what was going on.

However, when they heard that the agricultural machinery factory invited them to build trucks, they couldn't help but look surprised.

Agricultural machinery factories and shipyards joining forces to enter the truck business?
