Siheyuan: I earned foreign exchange in the heyday

Chen Changan knew very well what level Shi Heping was at.

Speaking of being in a car factory, Shi Heping is considered to have some skills.

But it is said that Shi Heping can develop a new type of engine.

Chen Changan absolutely didn't believe it.

However, having known Shi Heping for so many years, Chen Changan knew very well what kind of person Shi Heping was.

Shi Heping would never make such a joke.

So Chen Changan asked in surprise.

"A new engine has been developed? Is that true?"

“Really, in our factory’s warehouse, we have several old engines of GAZ-150 trucks.

I dismantled them all, and based on these engines, I copied our own engine."

Chen Changan immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Just now, Chen Changan once suspected that Shi Heping might have traveled back in time.

Chen Changan simply didn't believe that with Shi Heping's level, he could design and produce a new engine from scratch.

If it was really done, Chen Changan would definitely ask for the secret code.

For example, "Palace Jade Wine?"

Or, "How much is a sledgehammer plus a hammer?"

After all this effort, it turned out to be a copy of the GAZ-150 engine.

This is still very powerful, but at least it is within the range of understanding and acceptance.

"Let's go take a look."

Although Shi Heping is the deputy director of the automobile factory.

He is also the most experienced deputy factory director.

He also has an office in the administrative building.

But he never stayed in his office in the administrative building.

I was always in the experimental workshop. Even sleeping was done in the office of the experimental workshop, with a bed set up for me.

When Chen Changan and Shi Heping came to the experimental workshop.

The new engine is still being tested. This is Shi Heping's request.

Shi Heping felt something was not right about the sound of the new engine.

He was not very confident about his new engine because of the sound of the car engine.

After all, the automobile factory had previously produced diesel engines, and this was Shi Heping's first time experimenting with gasoline engines.

After getting used to the sound of diesel engines, I suddenly feel that the sound of gasoline engines sounds weird.

However, for Chen Changan, the gasoline engine is the engine he is most familiar with.

Chen Changan first carefully observed the engine imitated by Shi Heping.

This is an inline six-cylinder water-cooled gasoline engine. This is different from what Chen Changan had thought before.

Compared with gasoline engines, Chen Chusheng thinks that car manufacturers should start with diesel engines and continue to explore deeper.

However, considering that we basically had no independent research capabilities at that time, we had to rely entirely on imitation.

I just copied whatever I found and that’s all I said.

It doesn’t matter whether it’s gasoline or diesel, as long as it works.

“Director Chen, this engine uses the platinum ignition method.

After a simple test, the maximum power is 90 horsepower. There is no problem.

But the biggest problem is that the sound is different from our previous engines.

I'm a little unsure, you have a lot of experience, please come and listen."

Chen Changan pricked up his ears and listened for a while, but didn't find anything wrong.

"What's the problem? Why didn't I hear it?"

"I don't know what's wrong, but the sound is different from the engines we produced before."

Shi Heping's words immediately made Chen Changan laugh out of anger.

“Those previous engines were all diesel engines.

Yours is a gasoline engine. Can the sound be the same?

Both engines work in different ways, so how can they sound the same? "

Shi Heping's face turned red immediately and he stood aside unable to say a word.

Shi Heping was originally just an ordinary worker. Not to mention engines, he had never even ridden in a car before he met Chen Changan.

Later, Shi Heping learned all his skills from Chen Changan.

Although Shi Heping was studious, he just copied or followed the drawings provided by Chen Changan.

As for engine design, that is not his forte.

The few engines we know about are limited to those currently produced by the automobile factory.

Compared with people who have received training in related fields, my theoretical knowledge about the principles and basic conditions of engines is still somewhat lacking.

Chen Changan didn't mean to blame Shi Heping. Being able to imitate was already amazing.

As long as there are no problems with this engine, the automaker can produce medium-sized trucks.

The engine experiment is not that fancy.

After the first test run, the vehicle is disassembled to check for problems and the design is modified if any are found.

This engine is the engine of the old truck GAZ-150.

There is definitely no problem with the design. If there is any problem, it must be a problem with production and assembly.

After disassembly, various tests were carried out and no problems were found.

Install it back and proceed to the next stage of test run.

"You have created a lot of problems for our factory.

At a time when the country was short of transportation tools, a lot of foreign exchange had to be used to buy trucks.

After we broke up with the big country in the north, it became difficult to buy trucks.

The country has a huge demand for trucks.

But we don’t have so many workers in our factory.

Once the ministry knows that we can produce truck engines, it will definitely ask our automobile factory to make trucks.

Your engine is just right for producing trucks with a load capacity of three to four tons.

A truck with this load capacity is just right for our road conditions.

The greater the cargo capacity, the longer the car cargo box will be.

The greater the length, the larger the turning radius will be. Not only that, the current road conditions in the country are not suitable for trucks that are too heavy.

It can be imagined that this type of truck must be mass-produced.

If we continue to produce it in the car factory, we don’t have enough workers.”

After hearing what Chen Changan said, Shi Heping was also a little worried.

When Chen Changan was not around, the factory had workers but no products to produce.

But now there are too many products and the demand is huge, resulting in a lack of workers to produce them.

Chen Changan thought for a long time before speaking.

"You continue to experiment here, I'll go to the department to ask Uncle Nie about the situation.

This truck is not so easy to produce, especially the steel.

This matter cannot just cause headaches for our automobile factory, it must also cause headaches for the steel mill across the street.

After all, this truck is not a pickup truck. If several tons of cargo are put on it and the steel is not up to standard, the truck will probably be crushed.

After leaving the experimental workshop, Chen Changan drove his pickup truck straight to the department.

What Li Huaide envied most about Chen Changan was every time he went to the department.

Basically, there is no need to wait. As long as Uncle Nie is there, he will summon Chen Changan as soon as possible.

"Our busy factory director suddenly came to see me. I'm a little uncomfortable with it for a while."

When Uncle Nie saw Chen Changan for the first time, he started teasing him.

Uncle Nie felt that the automobile factory had already made a decision on the personnel arrangements for the new motorcycle factory.

Uncle Nie has finally solved a headache.

After all, it would be difficult for even Uncle Nie to refuse to give face to these old comrades.

"How is it? Who will be sent to the new motorcycle factory?"
